First time in FFXIV, Long time Heavy Roleplayer [Balmung] - VonSchlichten - 09-19-2013

G'day everyone! I am RHcrow! Avid Roleplayer!  But you can call me VonSchlichten since it's what I go by in RP situations.


--MMORPG background

I've been playing a variety of MMOGs for the past decade and a half casually RPing if the game felt like it.  However I really didn't start true RP until a few years ago. The mmos I spent the most time in are as follows:
  Dark Age of Camelot (Casual RP)
  WoW (RP)
  Pirates of the Burning Sea (RP)
  Eve Online (Heavy RP and PVP)

--RP experience

I consider myself an "immersionist".  It is what us heavy RPers in Eve would coin ourselves.  That is the way I enjoy playing, 100% IC.  I tend to avoid OOC chat as much as possible.

My first big dive into heavy RP was on a minecraft server called Lord of the Craft. The server operates on a 100% RP policy and was my first true headfirst experience into immersive roleplaying.  Fast forward two years later, I've gotten the joy of creating vast story arcs, impressive characters, and helped shape the world of LotC through RP.  Also I've become privy to avoiding such characters such as Mary Sues and Gary Stus.  Flaws and shortcomings make characters interesting, not perfection.

--Character ideas/info
Ever since my first "real" MMO, Dark age of Camelot back in 2002, I've been playing as various members of the VonSchlichten family, a House my brother and I created back for Dungeons and Dragons.  To this day, about 10 people RP as various members of the VonSchlichten family on Lord of the Craft and other games.
