Hey everybody! For those who haven't seen me posting elsewhere, I'm a longtime rper and FFXIV player, but I've just started dipping my toes into the rp community. In fact, I finally got a server transfer over to Balmung a few days ago, and now that my character's wiki is (mostly) sorted out, I thought I'd put out one of these connections threads and see if I could find some people willing to take a chance on a new face.
A bit about me: I've been rping on and off for a little over a decade now. MMOs, forums, D&D...I've done about everything short of LARP. I consider myself a heavy rper, but I'm also flexible for the right people and, once I've established myself and been around a while, I'll also be interested in trying to teach other people just getting into the hobby. If you want to know more about my specific rp tastes, you can read up on my profile in the player directory. For the most part, though, I'm open to a lot of different storylines. I'm also interested in ongoing rp storylines, but I don't have a ton of time to devote to FFXIV, so I may not be the greatest fit for that if you want to keep the story moving quickly. I live on Central time (GMT -6) and my regular schedule is Monday-Wednesday after 5pm and Saturday-Sunday mornings/afternoons. I can't guarantee I'll be on during those hours, as I play other games, as well, but I can guarantee I'll at least be available at those times if you want to schedule something ahead of time.
Now, on to Kazukata. You can find the full details on his wiki page (see my signature), but the short version is that he's a Raen Au Ra who is (yet another) Doman refugee. Kazukata openly fought in Doma's army both against the Garleans' opening invasion and in the revolt, making him a bit of an old warhorse, even if he never rose above the rank-and-file. Gravely injured in the final days of the Doman Revolt, he woke up on a ship to Eorzea to news of his homeland being reduced to ash and his family (probably) killed. This was a devastating blow to Kazukata, who spent the time between the Domans' arrival and present day wandering around being a generally depressed wreck. Eventually, Kazukata was roused from his stupor by tales of the Warrior of Light's and others' heroics, and after seeing the people of Eorzea stubbornly persist in the face of ludicrous odds, became curious, then fond of his new homeland. And we step into the story as Kazukata has once again taken up his spear and become an adventurer, determined to become a similar inspiration for others as Eorzea's heroes have been for him.
A few plot hooks from his wiki:
â– As a travelling adventurer, Kazukata is technically a spear for hire. He'd prefer to be off doing something heroic, but for good coin, he'll do mundane work, as well. Highly unlikely to accept any shady business dealings.
â– Having just recovered from being a depressed wreck, Kazukata has a soft spot for those who are facing similar struggles and will try to reach out and help them.
â– Naturally, Kazukata is eager to reconnect with other Doman refugees.
â– He'll listen to anyone with a good story, especially if it teaches him more about Eorzea. He naturally gravitates towards bards.
â– He spends most of his time in and around Gridania, so anyone in the region, particularly if they're fellow adventurers, have a chance of running into him.
So, that's Kazukata. If you've got any questions or want to meet up, feel free to share!
