And saw some remarks about them being tribal and while they don't have to be, still some appeal to it for me since I'm a troll Rp'er on WoW and I was considering at least partially basing a FF character off the main one I play.
But want to do some resource gathering and find out where to find information of the race's timeline, world timeline, what my character would likely know about if she's about 17 or whatever the teen phase of the race is, information like average heights/weights, age, and anything I should know really about the race for rp'ing?
Also help with names. Found the wiki thing for it, but wasn't all that helpful for knowing if something like Dei'naa/Deinaa or just Dei works
And what would be the best rp server to try out when I get it?
There any major differences in the economy?
How about in the community?
Where are best rp spots likely going to be?
And don't know if this matters but should probably mention that only FF game I've played is Crystal Chronicles and Final Fantasy XIII. Not a total stranger to FF, but at the same time still a newb and really I don't have an idea of where to even start to look for info
Gilgamesh and Balmung are the two RP servers. However, I personally have had a lot more successful RP scenes since I moved to Balmung. I've met a lot more amazing RP'ers - from Short, rapid-fire /say posts, to long full flowing Para-posters.Â
This wasn't so much the case on Gilgamesh. People are more secluded in their cliques from my experience, because the RP community is substanially smaller. The places like the adventurer's guilds are hit-or-miss, depending on when you sign in and the traffic that day. I would have weeks where I tried to find people to RP with in Limsa or Ul'dah on Gilgamesh and not have any luck, eventually returning to my own circle of friends for RP.Â
This is not to say Gilgamesh is bad RP. I just think Balmung has more opportunities.
