If there is already one out there please contact me. Contact me if there is one being made. I'm very,Â very interested in this.

Dogberry · **06-20-2013, 02:32 PM**

I don't want to commit myself to anything just yet, but keep me posted. It could really fit with where I want to go with my character.

What is meant by 'dark?' Like a villainous group with a moral compass that points directly south? Or a grittier style?

I think Yssen was working on something that sounded somewhat sinister so you may want to reach out to him for more info.

Misericorde might also be of interest to you, if you want to reach out to Isaac. I actually spoke with him at length yesterday and his I also think that Misericorde might be something you might be interested in as well, though I don't think they are regarded as being "evil-aligned" by any means.

To help with some clarification: Misericorde is a gritty and dirty bunch, though they're definitely not "evil." It's more about realism than anything else, from what I've seen. I'm not the authority on the shell by any stretch of the imagination, but I've been talking to Shuck about it for quite some time. If you're interested, check out the Linkshell Hall ad and contact him. I don't know if it's what you're going for, but it's at least worth a read.

I'm a fan of heavy, gritty RP as well.. but not so much the revenge part. Smile

Good luck!

I agree with this. Revenge, to me, is a bit of a cliche. Gritty implies no alignment. Whenever I picture Uther in my head, his face has dirt on it and his clothes are faded and patched up. The way I see it is, if you're an adventurer, a realÂ adventurer, you're not going to have perfect hair or skin or clothing. You're most likely going to, well, look like shit. That's the vibe I intend Uther to give off. If he stayed in one place for a few years and bought new clothes and got a desk job, he'd probably be quite attractive, but until then he looks like he was raised by animals. That's just me though. I enjoy realism in my fantasy, some people don't.

I could go into "gritty" as a theme, as opposed to physically "gritty", but in my opinion, one hand washes the other. If you put yourself in the mentality of one, the other is going to follow.

I had fun reading Shuck's story which have me a feel for the guild's RP style, if you want to read it,Â click these words right here. They are a really fun bunch, although gritty as all hell. Smile

That's really funny. I was going to link that same thing, but I was too lazy to navigate to it to find the link. Good follow-up.

But yeah, what he said. That thread is a perfect example of what I've been fumbling to explain for the past three posts.Â Thumbsup

Just because you're not into it, doesn't mean it's cliche. I love a good revenge story. My character suffers PTSD from the calamity and deals with it with violently. Sorry that my character choices aren't yours. You're so enlightened.

I would also be interested in a LS / Free Company that practices a 'darker' style of taking care of business. This is sort of how I see it taking place:

In the forests of Gridania, the sun lays to rest under the watchful eye of Nophica. In its place rises the Umbral Moon surrounded by the cheerful dancing of the brightly lit stars. The citizens of the land begin to settle into their homes for an evening of meal and company while the guests of Gridania take to rest within the local tavern to tell their tales with any who will listen. The Wood Wailers take to their posts ever vigilant against the beastly night stalkers who would dare attempt to assault the serenity of their home and those that nestle peacefully within. But the Wood Wailers and beastly night stalkers are not the only ones roaming the lands at night; for under the cloak of darkness lies a stalker only known to the forest whose eye is ever watchful beyond the protective gates of the city-state and its militant brigade. Should you find yourself wandering the paths at night, pray be to your Gods your intentions are pure least you find yourself staring down the piercing gaze of the stalker within. You shall not escape alive.

I just like gritty "realism." GoT-style. Tongue

Dogberry · **06-20-2013, 03:55 PM**

Oh, sorry, I forgot that Game of Thrones has no characters with a revenge motive.

Totally not what I meant. o_o Jeesh. I'm not criticising revenge motive at all, my character is just personally not interested in revenge on Bahamut. Calm yer hormones. Sorry, uncalled for.

Edit: Your character's not the only one with PTSD from the Calamity. Smile

Everyone reacts differently.

Kylin · **06-20-2013, 04:00 PM**

Can we all please refrain from snarky attitudes and/or arguments about differing styles? This is starting to get off topic from the OP's question.

Thanks.

I'm still working out the details, but if you're interested the idea behind my Linkshell (Black Sun Alliance) is that they are the vagabond and ragtag heroes new and old that feel that the way the Eorzean Alliance handled the situation was a bit too soft handed. They're primarily people who lost family, friends, and loved ones both when the Garlean Empire conquered Ala Mhigo, as well as during the Battle of Carteneau. Not everyone is seeking revenge, but they all believe in a more heavy handed form of justice.
