Good morning and hello! Bouncy Let's see... what to say about me...

**I finished writing this, then realized it was long. So skip the "spoilers" unless you are really interested.**


Show Content
SpoilerI met my first Chocobo at the tender age of 11 years old with Final Fantasy IV (which I still think of as FFII). I've been riding chocobos and talking to moogles every since, with the exception of FFXI and FFXIV. For some reason, I avoided the MMOs until now.
 
I was first introduced to roleplay at 18 years of age on a MUD called Dawn of Time. For those who aren't old geezers like me, a MUD (Multi-User Dimension) is pretty much the mother and father of the modern day MMO. It's like an online RPG only it's text-based instead of with graphics. Anyway, I eventually moved onto the MUSH (which is similar, but with more freedom for RP stories and less hack-n-slash). I spent a couple years attending Hogwarts and becoming a true diehard roleplayer. Then I went to graduate school.
 
So, yeah, I do things backwards. It wasn't until graduate school that I tried my first game of Dungeons and Dragons (tabletop, not that online stuff). I kept RPing online via forums, though. Funny story - when I dropped out of graduate school (long story), my mom came up to help me move back to my hometown. When she arrived, I hadn't packed anything, because FFX-2 had come out and I couldn't put it down. She was SO PISSED.
 
Moving on, it was a year later that a coworker insisted I try World of Warcraft. And I've been playing MMOs ever since. It wasn't until RIFT that I left WoW, then moved to TOR and have recently returned to WoW. And it wasn't until 2 years ago that I actually started RPing in an MMO. Now that I've gotten a taste of it, I can't get enough. So I'm glad I found you guys. And I'm glad I found FFXIV.

TLDR: So yeah. I'm 33, female, and have been RPing since I was 18, been playing on MMOs for 10 years, and have been RPing on MMOs for the past 2 years. I love character development and my friends tease me about torturing my characters - I like to think that whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger, so long as it's in RP and not in real life. That said, I hate angst and "woe is me!", so my characters tend to be very strong females.

I only have a very small amout of experience with FF Tactics, and no experience with Crystal Chronicles (aside from "My Life as a King" on the Wii, which I don't think counts). And, like I said, I had never before played a FF MMO until this weekend. I think it's safe to say I'm hooked, though. What that means is that I know very little about the history of this particular FF world. I have a lot of studying to do!

What I'd like to find is a group of people who are looking to set up a Free Company (that's the right term, right?) so that my character can know some people right off. Any suggestions?
