*raises hand*
Here, here! Sasha's family is extremely wealthy, and though she doesn't live with them, she is still very pampered and spoiled. It's part of her character, though she doesn't mind getting her hands dirty occasionally. |

As long as Iron keeps putting the hurt on folks, he will continue to grow his wealth empire..on the broken bodies of his opponents.
Money which he will then waste on cactuar man figures. |

Augustine is a sort of.. miser type? Maybe? He has a lot of money but doesn't flaunt it, probably because he's afraid someone is going to try to take it from him. (Not that I didn't spend it all on a house and furniture in game LOL slowly making my way back)

Well... I've given a rather rich backstory for Garrett in that his family owns an estate somewhere in Ul'dah. And given that his father perished in Carteneau due to The Calamity...
At any rate, I don't really RP this part of Garrett very much. He, in fact, doesn't like being rich all that much. He's almost never home, and nine times out of ten stays in The Hourglass when he's in Ul'dah. |

Azureus' family back in Garlemald is very VERY rich and noble. Ofcourse, Az never speaks of garlemald.. and when people find out IC'ly his family is very well of, they all see him as a snobby rich sitting on a mountain of gil kid, when he has a sad backstory to do with his family. YOU PEOPLE DON'T KNOW HIS PAIN! :3
but yeah... Az's family is wealthy |

@n@ So many replies!
Portia is a noblewoman from Gridania, I'm currently saving up and doing commissions for a medium house to use as her manor. I only have her wear a dress around, she doesn't wear adventure clothes, ICly she's very much one of those rich type characters, and I need more friends to RP with, so you can send me a tell anytime!!

Just going to throw this out there, but I think it wouldn't be a bad idea if every now and then Upper Class parties were thrown. I especially expect to see something of the sort in Ul'dah, and maybe Ishgard when it will be open to us.
I think it would be very easy to do. Though it may require a linkshell, or some OOC organization of sort, because if nobles are to attend, we should at the very least know them beforehand. Big names are expected to be known among the people, especially among members of Upper Classes, who tend to be somewhat cliquey. For example, I have never roleplayed with Otto Vann as my noble lady Chiara Foschiani, but ICly I think it would be a must for her to already know him, if only just by fame. At the same time, I'd expect her name to be known, as she is the wife of a very prestigious goldsmith in Ul'dah (and a goldsmith herself, though of a different popularity as her husband's, as she excels in clockwork and minions-type of goldsmithing rather than jewels or bonecrafting). So yes, I think events to have rich people gather and meet would be great and... it would also offer some fun for wanna-be RP criminals (a bunch of riches all clustered together, what better chance to make the robbery of the century?) and, obviously, bodyguards and law enforcement. To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect.
"What makes a strong character is how they deal with their flaws, their fears, their turmoils, their troubles that get in the way. That's what makes them relatable." -- N.C. |

I'm 700,000 gil in debt!
But Raging Behemoth on the other hand? He's wealthy. But all of his money goes to funding his Brotherhood, so he comes out about even. To be forgotten is worse than death |

Barb is apparently absurdly loaded in old money, and her sole motivation for doing things is to 'get out of the house.' She's seen around, mostly in the evenings when most people go to sleep and occasionally offering dangerous jobs to people with a death wish. She wears super flamboyant clothing, (I think otto and I were having a fashion off) and tosses gil around without much of a care. HOWEVER, she's not showboaty over it because she's a firm believer in Nobless Oblidge and treats most people with whatever respect they garner off their own merits. She's sometimes escorted by guards as well during the day! =o
OOCly, I have a Mansion (Personal) I've almost completely decorated. It's completely used for RP purposes... although she typically won't invite just anyone over. I can mostly make or buy all the nice things... but mostly I'm not big on flaunting it and just enjoy helping out where I can. ICly, she enjoys meeting people, and more so people that share her interests and have their own power to throw around. I can see her hosting a party and such if only to get people interested in her wild projects. (She totally has a vault too) I'd like to note. That while SHE IS wealthy. It's not a defining feature of the character, and it's typically never even brought up, as she doesn't think much of it herself. |

Cassandra is quite wealthy. She usually doesn't act like it, nor does she go around telling everyone, but she doesn't try to hide it either. I usually RP her as paying for drinks and other things by simply reaching into a pocket and dropping a handful of coins on the counter, with no concern for the actual amount she's paying.
There are other things that hint at her wealth, but I haven't gotten into it IC yet. She's kind of evasive. |
