  1. What is this I don't even. ಠ_ಠ
  2. Depends how much you want to abide by the conventions set out - Seawolf names are supposed to consist of a combination of Roegadyn language syllables. a list of these can be found here As you can probably see from the replies in the forum, people are prepared to ignore the naming conventions and site their own convoluted ways in which their character has wound up with a name different to other members of it's clan. They are just guides, you can follow them as closely or as loosely as you wish
  3. You're welcome! Hope to see you around next phase
  4. I think it can be interesting to evolve a character's name further using the conventions as a guide. For example I was close to having a Dunewalker Lalafell based on a character I carry over a lot called Rhuca. Following the AAB AB naming rules I ended up with Ruruca Ruca. but then I found Female Roegadyn and I changed my mind entirely If you're a keeper of the moon you could pretty much be Phae'ra Nireath, for example. ('ra denoting fifth son status)
  5. So for those of you that may not be aware, the developers over at Square Enix have taken it upon themselves to create a very in depth cultural dimension for not only each race, but each clan within the game. This being naming conventions. Obviously this is a very important part to any culture in real life and a strong identifier for a persons background - you would instinctively know a person called Wei Jianhao is not western and may even be able to identify that it is a chinese name (for example). With the naming conventions being so distinct and diverse, I have been quite disappointed so far to see that not many people have been taking up the idea - which is a shame as i feel this has the potential to make the RP experience a lot more immersive. For those of you that dont know what im talking about, the conventions and rules can be found below for each race; Hyur Naming Conventions Elezen Naming Conventions Miqo'te Naming Conventions (by the way 'Aitches' is the name of the letter H) Roegadyn Naming Conventions Lalafell Naming Conventions So I'm asking y'all; will you be adhering to these conventions for your character? What are your thoughts on having such a framework, do you feel its helpful or a restriction?
  6. Thought I'd join in on the fun! Meet Tranquil Dawn
  7. I don't usually post on forums (much more of the shady lurker type) but looking at this thread I just want to be a part of it! I love Roegadyn females! I have two looks that I just cant decide between; This one, (Wild Meadow) http://i.imgur.com/ngUcXsT.jpg[/img] and this one! (Tranquil Dawn) http://i.imgur.com/vnjdaAM.jpg[/img] what do you guys think? Can't wait to get stuck into this game properly next phase, what realm is everyone else on for RP? I've heard a lot about the Balmung (Legacy) server, but I have strong concerns about the time-zone differences and the potential for a really screwy economy in the early-mid game
