Happened to get Petrified in VA and took the opportunity to snag this action packed shot -
balmung Tiny Roe seeking Hearer
Whittledown replied to Whittledown's topic in Chronicled Connections
Fortunately Cherry is exactly the sort of person who will ask random strangers 'Hey, are you a Hearer?' and just hope for the best. I'll try to track you down in game and hopefully we can get both these characters what they need -
Hallo! Cherry is needing to find a Hearer in the Black Shroud so as to talk to a tree for vital reasons related to punching. Someone who can perhaps teach her to communicate with the elements would be definitely helpful! If you can help with this please drop me a PM here, message me at cherryroe.tumblr.com or ping me in game

Hello RPC Been a long time since I came around here so I thought I'd start fresh and have a new go at things. Been playing on Balmung since 2.0 dropped (somehow had never even heard of this game until the ARR beta) but before that played WoW, GW2, SWTOR, LOTRO, and spent a good fifteen minutes each in TERA, Wildstar, and D&D Online. What made FFXIV different? I couldn't exactly tell you to be honest but it just hits all right feels and buttons. The moment I first loaded it up and heard the music over the title screen my heart just clenched up and I felt like I was home. I love this ridiculous world and everyone in it. So I made a tiny punch Roe! In game her name is Kyrsslona Fyriachtwyn (luckily that is exactly as many characters as are allowed) but on the forum and in RP she goes by Cherry. She's a Seawolf raised by a Seawolf mom but far from the sea, she grew up primarily in Peace Garden in the Northern Shroud. Very much looking forward to meeting new people and expanding Cherry's list of pals and acquaintances! If you're keen to meet up with a spunky, cheerful Roe lass feel free to drop me a line in game. Also if you're a tumbling sort you can go to cherryroe.tumblr.com to visit my blog for her character inspiration and goings on. Hope to see some of you fine folks in game soon!

What age is adulthood for all the races?

There's nothing official. Without that though 18 is always a good bet. -

balmung The Grindstone - Saturdays at 10 PM EST (9 PM Central)
Whittledown replied to YesGood's topic in Roleplay Events
It was fun stopping by even though Hornet didn't even get to wreck a single fool (Lost in the first round? The shame!) -
Hornet left Gharen specifically for the purpose of letting him find a nice Highlander girl to make the babies with. No revenge, though there might be a few.... tests of worthiness.

The stockpile of ceruleum grenades Bryn has collected over the last few moons are absolutely not connected in any way to any rematch Bryn may or may not have been looking forward to for some time. Nope. Please, for the good of all of us, this needs to be an oil wrestling match. If Hornet gets a cut of the gate, I will support this idea. Of course there's a purse involved, what kind of fight would it be without one? Loser gets 10%, winner gets 15%. Those numbers are garbage and you know it. Winner gets 45%, loser gets 25%, remaining 30% gets split between the ring girls (I expect multiple ring girls of course) and the hosts.

Nope. Smart girl. Now to figure out how Hornet may hear about such a thing and thus have cause to come a knocking.

*reads Gharen's wiki* Looks like Hornet has a certain miss Brynhilde to visit. Excellent.... *sharpens axe for unrelated reasons*

Re: Dimorphism If Au Ra are draconic (which appears to be so) relatives the closest we have in RL is lizards. A quick googling and we have this: Amphibians and reptiles In amphibians and reptiles, the degree of sexual dimorphism varies widely among taxonomic groups. The sexual dimorphism in amphibians and reptiles may be reflected in any of the following: anatomy; relative length of tail; relative size of head; overall size as in many species of Vipers and Lizards; coloration as in many amphibians, snakes, and lizards, as well as in some chelonians; an ornament as in many newts and lizards; the presence of specific sex-related behaviour is common to many lizards; and vocal qualities which are frequently observed in frogs. Anolis lizards show prominent size dimorphism with males typically being significantly larger than females. For instance, the average male Anolis sagrei was 53.4 mm vs. 40 mm in females.[44] Different sizes of the heads in anoles have been explained by differences in the estrogen pathway.[45] That 53.4 mm vs 40 mm means that the males are roughly 25% larger than the females. For a human that would be a male of 6' and a female of 4'6". From what I have seen the Au Ra are not that extreme and I think a happy medium is achievable.

Too much woman, or not enough man? Hmm.....

Those count! For Hornet: Berrod Armstrong (naturally) Oscare Iono Rivienne Delacroix Sigyn Shieldbreaker Dhemgeim Shydrowen (Or however its spelled) Jancis Milburga Edit: Of course Aya, how could I have fogotten Aya. Not including folks that she was properly in love with.

Not technically a screenshot but too big to upload to the gallery Commission of Astorin Ebrelnaux and Deirdre Ta'ea by Jn3 (cantkillus.deviantart.com) -
It's all situational. Upbringing. Life experience, all of it. Take someone like Obsidian Hornet. Her first experience with love was with a Highlander male, this colored her view of them and led to her having relationships more easily with them despite her being a Roegadyn. But she also understands that issues like breeding are important, that's why she broke off her engagement with Gharen Wolfsong. She wanted him to have the chance to meet a nice Highlander girl and make some babies.

Some OOC adorableness I captured. Sometimes all you need is some cute to help brighten up your day.
