Hey there~
I'm Merri! I sat here for a bit, contemplating whether or not I ought to make a post like this. I inevitably decided I would, though I'll try to keep it to the point. Long story short, I keep busy in-game. Between endgame and other commitments, it's been difficult as of late for me to really find many meaningful connections in-character. I've my friends and the like, but they also have friends, linkshells, and FCs. That's more or less the point where I feel like my connections come up short, as they naturally keep busy with their respective groups. While I obviously find time to roleplay with them still, a lot of the time I find myself without much to do outside of bumming around the adventurer's guilds, hoping something comes along. I'm unable to join a Free Company, as I'm already in an endgame FC that I simply don't want to leave. I've been with them since 1.0 and they're basically family to me at this point. I've thought about joining linkshells, but even then I'm not sure how much time I could dedicate to it, nor would it be easy to justify my character joining one due to his prior affiliations. (Namely with his own linkpearl, the Blue Skies, which I'm slowly working on rekindling.)
So, tavern roleplay is generally what I find, and it really only goes so far in most cases. There's exceptions, naturally, and I've met some people with whom I've developed lasting connections, but such occasions seem few and far in between for me. So I guess the point of this thread here is to throw my hat in the ring for some new connections and friendships! I absolutely love meeting new people, and I think it's about time I start branching out some more. Whether it's just with one person, or a few members of a linkshell, or an entire Free Company--Â ...I'm game, so long as my independence isn't really an issue.
Maybe your character is eager to pair up with a veteran of the adventuring trade. Maybe your Free Company is in need of a seasoned Magitek Engineer for whatever reason. Hell, maybe your character just needs more friends in general. I'd like to think Merri could fit the bill, and then some~
Feel free to drop a line here, or give me a poke in-game if you'd like to see if something can't be sparked up!
Hope to see you around!
