Hello everyone! o/
Â
I'm a brand spankin' new member of the FFXIV: ARR roleplay community, and so I figured that I would post up my introduction here in hopes of meeting some people and making some connections! c:
Â
1.) Â My MMORPG Background
My MMO background isn't as extensive as some others', I'm sure. My first real MMO was FFXI. I played that for a number of years off and on. After that, I tried a number of F2P and P2P MMOs pretty casually, though none ever really impressed me. Just after patch 1.19 hit, I tried my hand at FFXIV 1.0 and found it pretty enjoyable. I fell into an OOC gaming community that I've stuck with to this day which now calls Excalibur its home! (:
2.)Â Â My Roleplaying Experience
I've roleplayed for about twelve to thirteen years now, on and off, mostly on forum-based RP communities and websites. It's always been a hobby that I've really enjoyed as a writer and creative-type. However, I've never actually RPed on an MMO before. So in that regards, I guess I'm a total newbie. I'm still trying to get my bearings in the FFXIV RP community, so please be patient with me while I figure things out and try to get into character. ^^
Â
3.)  Character Ideas
Right now, I only have one character:Â Valeria Faron, a midlander hyur woman at the age of twenty-one. Without delving into too much detail here, she currently works as a part-time adventurer and full-time thief, cutting purse strings and lifting unsuspecting victims' valuables to fund her search for her older brother lost to her in the chaos of the days just before the Calamity.
Â
4.) Â My Roleplaying Style
As far as actually RPing, I'll probably fall in between medium and heavy on the spectrum. I really like the FFXIV lore and plan to stick to it as much as possible. (So if you spot me making a mistake, please tell me! I don't claim to be an expert, haha.) I'm also highly interested in character development, relationships between characters, keeping continuity, and realism.
Â
However, if we're talking the amount of time I have to dedicate towards RPing, I'm more of a light to medium RPer. Most of my FFXIV time is spent on my character on Excalibur, where I help run a fairly large non-RPing Free Company / community. I also am part of a Coil static there, so my times on Thursday through Sunday are limited. Mostly, my RP times are during the day and occasionally on nights (NA central timezone).
Â
Â
Soo, yeah! That's my (long-winded) introduction. ^^; Hope I didn't bore anyone too badly, haha! I'm not quite ready to jump into RPing yet. Still feeling a little intimidated with the unfamiliar territory. But I would love to maybe find an RP community that wouldn't mind letting me creep for a bit and perhaps join in after I get a little more comfortable! c:
