Figured I should stop lurking and say hello.
My name's Alex, 29 from the UK and will hopefully be rolling on Balmung come launch. Â Been a fan of the Final Fantasy series since VII, though I've yet to finish either XII or XIII. Â Didn't try XIV 1.0 because of the terrible reviews, though ARR peaked my interest and I must admit the beta has done nothing but impress me.
With that said, on to the nitty gritty...
MMORPG background
I daresay if I listed all the MMO's I've played it'd be enough to fill a thread...
Suffice to say I played WoW from mid vanilla to the first content patch of Pandaria. Â Before that was City of Heroes and City of Villains and a brief dabble in FF XI. Â XI was my first MMO and I managed to make it all the way to the dazzling heights of level 11! Â Twice! Â On the same character.... Â XP loss on death was a cruel thing indeed...
RP experience
My first experience of RP was on WoW. Â Originally started on Ragnaros (due to the fact that it sounded like Ragnarok, the ship from FF VIII
) Â I moved to Defias Brotherhood because it was RP-PvP and I'd heard RPers had nicer communities. Â Eventually I started RPing with my paladin, Kayl and enjoyed it. Â Though I kinda stopped RPing from the latter half of WotLK.
Also roleplayed on Champions Online, which was a lot of fun. Â But all in all I dare say my RP skills are in need of a good spring clean and an oil change.
Character ideas/info
I plan on playing a Miqo'te pugilist and eventually monk called V'kayl. Â She's the young, happy go lucky sort who prefers to fix her problems with her fists rather than her brain. Â She also happens to be aquaphobic, which is all sorts of fun when you come from Limsa Lominsa...
I'll probably have other characters / classes in the future but I prefer to flesh out one character at a time.
How did you learn about the coalition?
From Kari, who's been bugging me on Skype to join for a while now, and then to post a hello after I did.
What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? Light, medium, or heavy?
I'd have to say I'll probably be a light / medium RPer. Â Though I enjoy roleplaying I intend to play the game first and roleplay second. Â Of course after hitting the level cap that may change and I may spend more time RPing.
So yeah, that about wraps it up. Â I look forward to seeing you all in game (both beta and live.)
