Hello Coalition!
My name is Subasu Ethenia and, well, I'm not used to introducing myself on RP forums. I usually just jump into the RP threads and make myself known there. However, I decided I'd try something a little different, and try introducing myself first.
I have dabbled in a lot of games over the years. I started my MMORPG career in Everquest and broadened my horizons out to Horizons (known as Istaria now), Vanguard:Saga of Heroes (my personal favorite next to FFXIV), Warhammer Online, Conan, Aion, LotRO (another personal fav)
I've played Diablo, Diablo II, (shamed to admit this) Diablo III, and Grim Dawn (love this small gem). As well as Path of Exile.
When I created Subasu, I did not have a complete backstory for her, or a story at all. She was meant to be a character I played around with and had fun. But as I went through the Main Story questline, I found myself giving her dialogue for the things going on around her. It soon became apparent that my RP ways would not die simply for the need to rush through content. Now, I found the fun in the game wanes and I need to express myself creatively through RP.Â
So, with that in mind, Subasu has taken on the classic personality traits of one of my other clerics I RP'd in another game. Subasu is a kind soul (her WHM Soul reflects that) who is easily broken by personal tragedy in her life.  She gives love and compassion to others without thought and then when personal tragedy strikes, she is left raw and almost laid bare to the back lash of emotions (Vault anyone?). She is like a little sister to those she meets and is not very intimidating to those around her although she is more than capable of standing on her own in battle. She is often quiet, and speaks with wisdom instead of harsh words. (At least I will try to keep this is mind)
Discovered the Coalition through google search (it's so popular you guys have #3 slot in search results, kudos!)
I would like to maintain a medium to heavy RP presence. I won't RP dungeon runs, unless everyone has agreed to RP the dungeon, then I have no qualms with playing along. Usually though, they are pugs and no one cares to take that extra time. Otherwise I usually stay in character, unless I need clarification on something or need to address something OOC, then I will either PM the people or make some kind of annotation that denote I am speaking OOC'ly.
In my RL, I am an overweight woman who has struggled with self-image issues that relate to my weight. At 4'11" I was a disgusting 200lbs and wasn't looking like I was coming down anytime soon.Â
That was when I discovered Crossfit and have been going for over 5 months now. I am down 20 lbs and several pant sizes (was 24W now I'm at 18W. Could possibly fit a 16W). I've changed my eating habits, as well as working out for about an hour everyday. I didn't think I could do this, until I tried it. Every workout is scaleable to my level of fitness and the people in my box are some of my biggest supporters and motivators. When I trudge in from a particularly long run, they are all there to cheer me in the door. When I am the last person finishing a workout, they will all get with me to help me finish up, so that I am not doing it alone. It's this sort of comraderie that has kept me going back and continuing this weight loss journey that I am on.Â
So, if anyone else may be interested, you can PM and I can answer any questions you may have.
Hope to meet many of you wonderful folks!
