Boring Intro of the New Guy on (Gilgamesh) - Dice_Hazard - 09-14-2013
Hi. I'm new, and I'm looking to introduce myself. Well, I guess that's out of the way now. What else..
--MMORPG background
Played Guild Wars then City of Heroes/Villains for a couple years. Then I played Final Fantasy XI for a year about three years ago. I played Star Wars: The Old Republic, but only for a few months. I've never really been a huge fan of the MMO genre.
--RP experience
I used to RP on miscellany forums as a teen, and I was always very apt at it. Having dreamed of becoming an actor as a kid, putting myself in the soul of a character was always a second nature to me.
Guild Wars gave me my first MMO RP experience, and I found it glorious.
I was in the Forever Knights ( http://www.guildwars.com/community/guildweek/gotw-2005-12-13-foreverknights.php ) for the entire time, and it was that guild who showed me just how much more immersing and grandiose an MMO could be if you "lived" your character. After that I moved to the Virtue server of City of Heroes/Villains, and I also had great RP experiences there, of a less organized and more random and spontaneous nature with many people on that server for about a year. I think I never saw as much free going and spontaneous, "anytime RP" as in CoH/V. It was great.
Since then however, I haven't had the chance to RP much at all in the last 6 years or so. I never really found a role-playing Linkshell in FFXI, which was in great part why I was disinterested in the game after the first year. This last year I played SW:TOR for a short period of time, and while I had joined a truly amazing RP guild, JEDI ( http://thejedlorder.enjin.com/ ), I found the game itself rather stale and couldn't play it for very long.. I'm hoping that with FFXIV, I can relive the wonderful sensation of feeling truly immersed in the game-universe, once more.
--Character ideas/info
None at the moment. I bought the game yesterday.
--How did you learn about the coalition?
Google Search "FFXIV RP Server".
--What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? Light, medium, or heavy?
Medium to Heavy, but since I haven't role-played in years, I'd currently qualify myself as Light.
--Anything from real life you'€™re comfortable with sharing?
STDs.

Never nothing about an intro as it opens the door to new possibilities and chances to meet someone for the first time. So greetings and welcome. I heard of Forever Knights and think I had a character in there for only a couple of weeks since I had a hard time getting in GW. Very diverse and strong roleplay guild.
Glad to have you among us and look forward to seeing you around.

No STDs, please and thank you.
But, really, seriously, welcome! I hope you find yourself cozy on the server. If you need an RP fraaand, please feel free to look up any of my characters. Ermina Reed, Pahja Rabntah, or Solelle Faucillien!
