Hi everyone, I'm a not-so-new player on Balmung and after a busy semester that didn't have the courtesy to let me do more than lurk and read on these boards I'm looking forward to finally breaking into roleplaying in FFXIV.
Experience-wise I've RPed through my fair share of MMOs, the most significant being WoW (where I learned to dig deep into lore and how to craft a character that strictly adhered to the rules and history of a setting) and EVE (where I learned that if the developers don't give you lore, you make your own).
My main (and only) character is a Miqo'te dragoon, who I made and leveled a good while before I seriously considered roleplaying in the game at all. I came to really enjoy the lore of Ishgard (I'm a sucker for half-crazy religious types that are still kinda-sorta-sometimes on the good guy team), and was at first mildly annoyed at the position I'd put myself in making V'aleera a Miqo'te. But while it's a little more snowflakey than I typically go for, I've really enjoyed the challenge and process involved in coming up with a lore-tight backstory for an Ishgardian Miqo'te dragoon and look forward to developing her further.Â

I'd appreciate any advice anyone has to give on good general RP linkshells and will hopefully be able to start looking for an FC to join soon. Otherwise I'm glad to finally get around to posting and look forward to getting acquainted with people both in-game and on here!
