Hello!
I was a pretty avid forum roleplayer a decade ago during my school days, but as I became an adult I focused a lot more on tabletop roleplaying games than internet based ones. I've very much missed roleplaying, so since I was already playing FFXIV I made the decision to transfer to Balmung.
I've played many MMOs, but the only ones that ever stuck with me are TERA and FFXIV, although I haven't played the former in several years. I had something of a static in TERA with my tabletop buddies, and we would frequently do something I would call guerrilla roleplaying. Since we were practically a full party, we only ever needed one or two pugs for any content, so we would never break character (usually at the expense of the pug). It didn't help that we played as a cult to the Blood God and enjoyed open-world pvp, but I digress...
I found this website after a few Google searches, and now here I am. I'm here looking to make connections in the RPC, with my main purpose being finding a free company. Ideally, I would like a free company that has a medium roleplay focus and active raiding culture (not hardcore). Bonus points if they have found a way to combine those. In any MMO, it's always the people that make the game. The primary reason I quit TERA was because my group lost interest.
Now that I have my intentions out of the way, I'd like to ask a question about character development.Â
I play a miqo'te character because I'm a dirty weeb, but with the coming expansion shifting focus to the other side of the world, I'd like to connect my character back to Doma. I was hoping to have my character be a refugee from Doma after the Garlean Empire did its thing, but I'm not sure if there are any miqo'te in Doma to begin with. I know that the few miqo'te that are in Eozea crossed frozen seas from somewhere else, but could that somewhere else be close enough to Othard that they traveled there too? I suspect we'll not have any answers until Stormblood, but how do you think the community would take to my character being from Doma?
