Hey folks. Unfortunately, coding bootcamp is devouring much more of my time than I anticipated even though I anticipated it would take up a lot of my time. I’m essentially only reliably online on weekends. (I did warn you all it would be extremely slow moving. :V I just didn’t expect it to be THIS slow.)
However, a few updates:
1) Another player has been trying to look for RP posts related to the Red Lotus Arc on Tumblr. If you have a FFXIV Tumblr and want to use it to post RP things related to this arc, feel free to tag any posts related to the story arc with "ffxiv red lotus" so that they can find them much more easily — especially if they’re RP!
2) Because I’m taking forever - if you have any neat ideas you would like to suggest for the gemstones, feel free to shoot them my way. The OOC purpose of the stones is actually just to give people an excuse to interact with one another. So if you have ideas that would help facilitate RP between you and others, feel free to shoot it my way. They have an IC purpose too - but ultimately even if your character tossed them, things would unfold in pretty much the same way when Tiergan finally finds you or if you find Tiergan.
3) My original plan was just to hunt people down as I play the game, but I realised I’m being dumb. So if you want Tiergan to FINALLY find your character, feel free to just poke me and we’ll try to sort out when we’re both online at the same time. If you’re okay with waiting however and are in no rush because perhaps you’re already embroiled in some pretty intense RP - you can also just wait for me to run into you in-game.
4) If it helps your RP at all, your characters would all likely find that they’re being followed. Or at least feel like they’re being followed. The men and women that track your characters are armed, with hooded capes and carefully maintained armor. They would mostly be watching. Though they may also feel compelled to capture your characters - but would take specific care in capturing your characters alive and without any crippling wounds. If captured themselves, would remain silent even under torture or threat of death. There would be nothing on their persons that are identifiable ways to mark where they come from - save for the fact that they’re all vaguely dressed in a similar manner.
Please feel free to actually RP/control them as convenient NPCs to spark any RP interactions you like between you, your friends, or even other participants. If you actually want your character captured by them, we’ll have to talk though! And it’ll require a lot more work on my part, which means possibly more waiting on your part.
5) Some folks have asked if it’s okay to organize a linkshell or just to group up and do things together in general. This is totally encouraged. Additionally, if you all want me to actually make a “Red Lotus OOC†linkshell and actually have a free LS slot, I’ll do that too so you guys can find and communicate with each other more easily for fun interaction times with strangers. Let me know if this is something you’re interested in.
Thanks for reading.
