@Athil Aw, thanks so much! Hopefully I can run into Athil sometime on Mana or this new character! : D @Chip That's too bad, but I completely understand the creation limit bit. Great minds think alike! Haha. Currently I'm not looking for Discord-only RP purely for the reason that I'm simply busy in the game and I even if my partner is okay with me multitasking, I'm the -worst- at it outside of just chatting! That being said, if you're looking for more FFXIV friends and friendly chats, I'd be happy to PM you my Discord info. Always looking for more friendly faces. @Helltorcher Erebus sounds interesting and also welcome to RP in FFXIV! A question that comes to mind is your profile says you are on Goblin and Balmung is currently closed with character creation/transfers. Just wondering if you're on Goblin or if your profile simply isn't updated! I'm simply humbled that anyone replied at all to this, so thank you very much! I'll probably keep this open a bit longer, just to see if any one else has interest. I don't plan to keep looking for very long though, simply because when Stormblood hits everyone (I know myself included) will be pretty busy for awhile! That and I am impatient when I'm sitting on a fun idea. \ o /

Hello again friends! I've been inspired and encouraged to make a second character for my RPing adventures. Hopefully this'll give me opportunities for more shenanigans and fun with a plethora of varied personalities between the two to satiate my RP needs! Plus, once I find a proper contact, I'll be making a Wiki for them too! So let's get down to it! I'm settling into creating a young,exuberant, wet-behind-the-ears Miqo'te who is just starting to get a taste of the “real world.” Their curiosity is only rivaled by their ignorance of just about anything beyond the realm of their woefully small living arrangements. It really is perhaps a stroke of luck that they'd fine anyone, let alone a family member, to grab them by the tail and at least keep them from stepping into the wrong alleyway or biting off more than they can chew! Now, that is the basic foundation I've set for my concept and this is the part where you and your character steps in! I love the idea of playing a young sibling to someone else's character. With your permission, I'd take into account your own character's backstory and craft up a history that explains potentially how they were separated and then could be reunited again. Obviously I'd -adore- discussing ideas and options too, so your input would be obviously desired (although not required if you'd rather me take the reins!) I also have a fantasia and am willing to do a name change to make them fit in, if needed! I am most comfortable playing a female, so a younger sister would be the sibling- but if a brother would work best, I can see about doing that instead. As for the specifics of your character, I'm not too picky! It'd be a bonus if they already had a Wiki for me to read up on the delicious details and background. They also do NOT have to be morally aligned a specific way, so long as they'd be willing to at least tolerate a sibling or have some rational for keeping them around. In fact, the idea of a mercenary or no-good adventurer having to suddenly deal with the situation and my character's personality seems rather amusing! Heroic do-good types are super welcomed too! Honestly, the specifics don't matter so much as the story and the character themselves. : ) Also, before I forget! They don't have to be blood related. Your character doesn't have to be a Miqo'te at all. Bonus if you have an idea or are willing to brainstorm ways for such a relation to be gained. (Although I imagine it wouldn't be difficult between adoptions and such.) On an OOC note, I'm only looking for in-game RP. I am completely willing to share Discord information and chat there, but for the RP itself I'd like it to take place in the game. I'm also willing to go to events or what-nots too! While this is an important contact I seek to make that will definitely bind my character to someone else's, I'm not looking for purely one on one RP all the time or force that on anyone. Groups can be fun! Basically... I'm flexible. I think that's all the basics for now, but if you have any further questions or inquiries, please feel free to PM me or simply post here! I'm really eager about this idea and the potential for the RP. Since this is sort of a “looking for that one person” ad, I might take a wee bit of time to respond. It's nothing personal and I honestly don't even know if I'll get any responses, but just in case please don't be offended if I decline! Of course, if you're not looking for a sibling but like the snippet of personality I offered or simply want to be apart of this character's world, that's always welcome!

Ah!! Thank you so much for the replies and interest! I really appreciate it and look forward to possible RP! @GhostlyMaiden Oh this would be lovely! I'll check out the wiki and send you a PM in the near future. Definitely would be nice for Mana to have someone who can perhaps relate to the "I'm from Othard but not really an Othardan" bit! (Othardan? Othardian?) @Nicholas Graveshire That sounds great! She could definitely use some advice from a doctor (or even a mage's) perspective on what kind of potions or salves to design or what might be in high demand for the medicinal practices. She often goes out into Ul'dah and simply puts her wares out on a blanket near the street, so it'd be easy to stumble across her. Although I tend to RP that she gets lost in the sea of people/markets that I imagine plague Ul'dah a bit. I can try to find you in-game or we can arrange something in a PM if you'd like too! @Kaito Hamada Huzzah for clients! I'm curious to how such interactions could go for certain. Feel free to try to nab me in-game (I'm usually on in late afternoons into the evenings) and if it doesn't seem to work, can always arrange something in PM! Silly FF only letting us add people while we're online... -shakes fist- Also welcome to RPC! : D

Thank you all so much for your replies! I'll try to get in touch with you and am really looking forward to potential new RP and connections! \ o /

A slightly off tune hum was upon her lips as she perused a worn leather journal in her hands. The Au Ra had claimed one of the few wooden benches in Ul'dah and had her legs extended outwards in some vain attempt to cool down. At least the shadow of the nearby building fell over her figure, although even that clearly didn't save her from the stifling dry heat. A few beads of sweat marred her brow as her pooled blue eyes were a tad narrowed in contemplation. The sound of scuffed footsteps broke whatever reverie the Raen had been in however and quickly she sat up straighter in her seat. “Ah, hello there.” Any surprise upon her features washed away into a practiced smile as she canted her head a bit to the side curiously. [align=center][/align] Greetings! I'm looking to make some wonderful connections and interactions for my character, Mana. I am very excited to get involved in the RP-side of Balmung, as I'm an avid Rper myself in several other games and mediums. I just finished putting together a Wiki for her, figuring it would help boost things along so feel free to take a gander to get a more detailed idea. (Otherwise just keep reading for a summary!) [align=center]Mana Mizu's Wiki[/align] Mana is an Au Ra Raen who grew up away from Othard due to unfortunate events. She was adopted by a Hyuran merchant from Vylbrand and spent most of her early life traveling along with him and his crew. Later, misfortune fell upon her that left her penniless, which eventually led to her hobby becoming her primary occupation as an exotic dancer (and in many ways, as convoluted as that life is, a companion at times.) She ran into her fair share of troubles and dangers during that time, but recently fled the scene to Thanalan. She then created a new last name in hopes to start a more “grounded” and “fresh” life. She currently resides near Ul'dah and is coping with the desert heat and locale. While she isn't a fighter or versed in the magical arts, Mana is attempting to find a new promising hobby to make ends meet. Of course, even with all the good intentions in the world, things don't always go according to plan! With that tidbit aside, I'm up for all sorts of contacts and connections. They could be a tie in stemming from her past or as simple as walking into each other along the street. Such interactions could be long-term, casual chance happenings, etc! Some samples or ideas: Friends/acquaintances she made on her travels when she was younger. Friendly merchants/business individuals from Ul'dah in her small shopping endeavors Former clients from her exotic dancing and/or status as a companion Former ship crewman who used to work for her father. Loan sharks, mercenaries, etc she owes money from her “past life” (Hired debt collectors work too!) Enemies or deemed “unsavory” types that she could have gotten involved in, as Mana sometimes helped smuggle or walked a very fine line on legalities as she occasionally tiptoed with both the law and lawbreakers. New clients who might have bought some of her lowly potions or salves that she's learning to make. They would be cheap and perfect for those unable to afford crafted elixirs made by a professional. Potential romance. I'm not into forcing such things, but Mana is single and I am always open to such possibilities if two characters hit off. AND MORE! (I'm very open to ideas both in light-hearted and darker themes, so these are just random starters off the top of my head.) If there's more you'd like to know or discuss, feel free to post here or contact me. I'm in EST time and I tend to be on in the late afternoons to late evenings. I also have Discord which I'd happily share with anyone interested, just contact me here, via PM or in-game!
