Personally I tend to use the British swears they use in the game, like "bugger" or "bloody," and just kind of roll with that (adding in things like "sod" and "bollocks" if I'm feeling particularly swearish). If I do go into regular swears, I try to give them different spellings, like "feck" for fuck (though I will probably still say "fuck" most of the time, I have a bad habit of swearing a lot
).I also like the various god + body part swears, though sadly neither of my characters would use those...well, maybe one just for the sake of blaspheming, but definitely not the other.
Also, probably something that slips people up once or twice (myself included), is that "god" and "hell" should usually be pluralized, given Eorzean mythology. So "bloody hell" becomes "bloody hells," and "god dammit" becomes "gods dammit." Granted, some of our characters might not necessarily subscribe to Eorzean beliefs, but as a general rule it works.
