...and stumbles into the crowd of people on the forums. 
Okay! So! People and stuff! I've been lurking around for a while after my friend Ruen linked me here just looking at all the pretty art and events and just generally being all shy somehow even on an internet forum like the smooth operator I am. However, I'm trying to put myself out there and make some more RP friends. I also just got a tablet and, once I get used to this thing, plan on inflicting sharing some of my really god awful FFXIV art with everyone! SO.
Anywho, I'm on Balmung, and I love long walks on the beach and singing in the shower. My main character, this delightful black mage here - Ilan Faust, is kind of a hard sell sometimes cause he's a little bit of a dick, and, for a long while, his miqo'te pal Ruen was the only one who seemed willing to put up with his jerkitude for any extensive periods of time. He's very smart, however, and sometimes doesn't hate everyone he comes in contact with, so there's that. He's extremely uncomfortable with social situations where he's not getting into a verbal or physical altercation, and he can't hold his liquor at all. Watching him physically strain himself trying to be polite for business' sake can be all kinds of fun. For me, anyway. But he's looking for business contacts, so he's kind of resigned himself to not being a complete jerk to everyone, which is often his default setting.
I've also got a Raen Summoner/Book Keeper named Kiyo and a bard named Odessa who's not ICly a bard at all and is struggling through DPS queues until I can unlock her actual IC class of Machinist. But I'll save further specifics for the Connections place. Ummm. I'm always down for random RP unless I'm AFK in the corner because I totally forgot I have the game open like a spaz. Um. Um. I think that's it! I'll save the EVEN MORE TL;DR for the classifieds, but I hope to make lots of friends for my characters. Or, in Ilan's case, either bitter enemies or awkward acquaintances/contacts.
