Doubt that having papers from Doma, or the Doman 'government' would help much in cracking the shell that was Ishgard to let in someone, especially a family that the majority of the populace would view as a threat. I also don't know why I was called 'Ishgardian scum', but.. Eh.Like I stated above, there's way more to it than that, and I omitted it on purpose because I want some elements to be revealed through roleplay... I would never expect "papers" to be the only thing allowing the family into Ishgard. Simply, you don't know all the details and I don't want to post them here.Â
Ishgard was and still kinda is a very secluded, shut-off society. They even shut themselves off from the alliance they had with the people south of Eorzea, and they had much more reason to trust them than someone from a completely foreign body. The only reason their gates are open to outsiders now [ You know, start of Heavensward ] is due to the intervention of the Warrior of Light and a motley crew of adventurers making them realize that they do actually need help with the war against the dragons.
The two Auri you see in Ishgard aren't well received at all, and the main reason they're allowed in, now, is basically due to necessary skills. They weren't just 'inhospitable' in Ishgard--They cry heretic and kill at almost nothing. They've killed 'heretics' who were ranking members of houses well known just because a random citizen pointed them out as having done something minorly heretical.
What I am basically saying, here, as nicely as possible, is that.. You can be a special snowflake all you want, but it'll never make sense to anyone that actually follows the lore of the game, and you'll probably have much more trouble with it than simply saying you're a tactician in training from Othard/Doma, living /anywhere/ other than in Ishgard. I mean, Ul'dah, Gridania, Limsa... Any of those, that's perfectly reasonable. Even having a house hidden on the central side of Coerthas, toward Mor Dhona/Ul'dah would make more sense, if still stretching a bit. The only reason I bothered to make a followup is to make sure you understood what your callous disregard to the two warnings, however awkwardly worded they were, would entail.
Carry on carrying on, and I hope you find someone that accepts your RP.
Also, my previous post to Virella was somewhat guarded, so I apologize for its callous tone - it wasn't my intention.
