Hello Hydaelyn Roleplayers Coalition! Â As the title of this thread suggests, I am a returning player to Final Fantasy XIV, but I will be returning with a brand new character - a female Seeker of the Sun, as the case may be.
I'm not very good as general introductions, so I'll just use the little template provided on this sub-forum.
--MMORPG background
Oh my word, where do I start? Â World of Warcraft was my first MMORPG, and I was there for day one, or what little bit of day one that the servers were working. Â I have since played every expansion for the game to date, though I have not played seriously since Wrath of the Lich King. Â Wrath was my jam! Â Everything since has felt like a hollow shell. Â I do still very much love the Warcraft universe and I still RP in the setting, but the actual MMO is just an empty, soulless husk of what it once was.
Since that time, twelve years ago, I have been a part of many MMO launches - Age of Conan, Guild Wars 2, Wildstar, and Star Wars: the Old Republic, to name a few. Â I am no stranger to MMOs.
--RP experience
I have role played in every MMORPG that I have played to date, but my experience as a role player predates my MMO portfolio. Â I was first introduced to role play way back when one of my school friends' dads handed him an old copy of Dungeons and Dragons first edition. Â This was in the era of 3.5, and I have been a role player since then, using various mediums and forum sites. Â Anyone else remember Gaia Online?
--Character ideas/info
I plan to make a post in the making Connections sub-forum later. Â I won't get into this here.
--How did you learn about the coalition?
From my roommate.
--What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? Light, medium, or heavy?
I consider myself a medium roleplayer in most MMOs. Â I sometimes take the initiative to dive into a heavy-RP mentality for alt characters from time to time, but my main characters are always approached with the understanding that some things can't be don IC, or at least should not be done IC. Â I joined an RP raiding guild in WoW once. Â Never. Fucking. Again.
I wanted to physically harm those people. Â Ever try to clear Kharazan at-level, in the Burning Crusade, with a bunch of ninnies stopping to RP after every other pull? Â Ain't nobody got time for that!
--Anything from real life you'€™re comfortable with sharing? (Work, school, hobbies, etc)
Nope! Â Sorry. Â
My mommy told me not to use personal information on the internet!
