No, I think I will. How about you answer if that's really the point of this thread? For you, in fact, to be the edgy one.

Remember kids, any remotely dark theme is super edgy and all this game has room for is cotton candy and midgets with the voices of Alan Rickman. What the fuck is your point? You don't like the direction of the story? Is that really all this post is?

Rachel puts on her Ru Paul wig and raises binoculars and says, "I cannot wait to see how this turns out." Thereby, she turned it into a discussion post and not a meme because apparently gender equality means the elimination of sexism.

If it's IC who gives a damn how aggressive or not it is? IC isn't OOC. It seems your character's understanding of Ala Mhigans is pretty one dimensional and misguided, doing that thing where they judge all Ala Mhigans based off the sort that hang around LAM. Which is fine. If you're asking a more well rounded way to understand Ala Mhigans and make it all seem less shallow, just know that it's not a purely Mhigan characteristic to be a brute. They were some of the biggest engineers and brightest minds from a technological advancement standpoint. There were different layers of society from what we know of the royals vs the rabble. There's a huge master post floating around on all the gathere AM history that we are aware of. Otherwise, don't pay any mind to OOC. If someone's getting offended over IC because your character doesn't like them and misunderstands much of their culture, that's not really your fault or responsibility.

If you can't find RP? That's a YOU problem. Not another person's problem. Stop being so entitled that people owe you roleplay. If you can't find it, it's your problem, no one else's. Maybe just, you know, step up instead of whine. You know, I don't recall stating that anyone should be entitled to RP. Instead, I've been saying that you're a giant turd if you go to a public event to not publicly RP, then proceed to tell people that's their fault they can't find RP. I understand that Ala Mhigans are probably incapable of reading in the game, but you can drop character in the real world, you know. Get over yourself. Just post at someone and poke them in PMs and they'll RP with you. It's really not hard.

Ahhh! Yeah, if Bri doesn't handle that I can get to work on something for you after this RP. IDK why I like projects like this so much, LOL.

Something like this?

There is actually a Resistance linkshell if you were interested. Look for Adun Blackblade or Avelyn Firestone! Would help you with those connections! Both of us are also super open to connections.~

Yes, dear. Alright, my two cents is I think in original concept, you're completely right. I don't think they were meant to be demonic in nature until they continued to develop it more and were like, "OOOOOPS!" So that's where I praise you. However, they did move away from that in implementation. I believe the original blurb said that Eorzeans mistakenly view them as dragon spawn. I think it was a crappy attempt at making them relevant to Isghard and the HW expansion in general. Personally, I would have saved them for whenever our Othardian expansion is dropping so we could actually delve into some interesting. Right now, they're p much a half finished race with a mixed sense of direction from those who wrote them, in my honest opinion.

Truthfully, Adun had no idea what he wanted to do now that he'd been given the time off to decide. He was a man driven by structure. Frequently, free time with him was just more training with either his family or other individuals, and the both of them were unavailable. Unless his mother and sister were free and around, he had no idea what to do with himself in free time. That wasn't to say he was without friends. There were people around whom he got to know on a friendly level and even spent time with, but his drive to continue to excel usually had him not a part of the groups that went out to socialize. It was satisfactory enough for them to invite him, at least, since there was always a chance he came off unapproachable because of his priorities. At the sound of another voice, Adun was pulled from his thoughts and looked up at being addressed. His lips tugged into a warm smile when he saw that it was Avelina. He wasn't entirely sure if she was closer to his age or his brother's, but she was always more on his level of skill. It would be a lie if he said he didn't admire that about her just a little bit. "Sister Avelina, it's good to see you as always," he greeted with a soft smile. Subconsciously, he reached up and smoothed over his damp, sweaty hair away from his eyes so he could see her better. "You do not interrupt me, no. I actually only finished with my father and was trying to decide what to do next. Did you intend to use this room to train? I can be out of here before you know it." He hopped to his feet and bowed swiftly at his shoulders to her. It was when he stood that he noted that she was currently alone and it tempted him quite a bit to offer to train with her. After all, Ral could not fault him for helping out one of his peers, no?

God, I fucking hate the NA SE Store.

Counterpoint: Lore adherence is frequently used as a defense for uninteresting characters, and "correctness" is often, wrongly, seen as inherently interesting. Uh, no. Good personality makes a good character. IDK if you're Lord Jesus Christ reincarnated in Eorzea or a merchant that sells moldy popotoes.

Characters that are well remembered are ones with a well written personality. Their feats, class, backstory, and anything else, to me, is secondary. Flawed, innocent, egotistical, timid. Doesn't matter the kind of character, only that it stands out as an individual. So yes, a generic thief could be interesting. I wrote a character who could not fight or heal and RPed him for nearly 8 years and he was extremely well received by the communities I RPed him.
