I usually use the past installments of Final Fantasy as a guide to how far I should take things in my own rp. Of course I won't have my character breaking his limit all the time or switching paradigms on the fly (He's only broken his limit once), but he does have a special ring that lets him transform/henshin into his end-game armour. It started as a joke, but no one's corrected me so far >.< and I think it's fun. Mostly I just got too lazy to run out of the room to "change" clothes in a semi-realistic manner. Again, he doesn't change his clothes like that all the time, and has only one set he ever changes into. I watch alot of Kamen Rider >.< I thought it was appropriate because while Caen wants to be a hero, he doesn't get very serious and even when he's fighting, it's a little silly.

I do like to have him take damage realistically. Like if he loses a roll in an awful sort or gets really hurt in a fight, I'll rp the injuries he sustained. There was one time he was even temporarily paraplegic due to some damage to his spine. I might be a little extreme there, but even in a fantasy world, I don't think aether is so powerful that it can instantly fix major wounds like that. If that were the case, I'm sure there wouldn't be so much strife out of the warzone in XIV.
I have an elezen alt that I feel could pull Advent Children/Dissidia style fighting at the peak of his power, but a lot of that, if I ever rp it, is saved for some really dramatic and appropriate rp. It's not cool if you pull out the big guns in every fight, right? Final Fantasy has always had it's heart-pounding cinematic moments and it's cool to see them in XIV.
