Heya Crrpt, I would bump her to age 18 but for some reason it seems cliche to me? I don't know why! I wonder also, if anyone can share info on what age is considered adult in Eorzea?

Hi there all! I recently had my first RP experience where a few other people asked for my character's age. I was thrown for a loop for a minute! As a new RPer, I didn't really give thought on choosing my character's age or birth day (seemed irrelevant tbh). I figured the way one writes one's character helped decide if they were more mature or immature. In any case, I chose to write my character as someone young enough to be easily fooled / teased without having decided upon an age. That is until I was put on the spot. The other people I was RPing with had characters in their early to mid twenties, all seeming very mature. On the spot, I decided that my character was going to be 17. I figured it was an age that melds well with my characters naivety, but also old enough where certain topics of discussion wouldn't be avoided. Thankfully for the most part, it worked out well although I did have some reservations. (The people I RP'd with were kind and had nothing negative to say when I told them my character's age). The thing that is bugging me now-- is 17 too young? As a 25 year old IRL I have no problem talking about mature themes, however given the age I chose for my character would other RPers be hesitant to RP with me? Full disclosure, I am not looking to ERP or have any romantic relationships at all with this character. So that helps take away my fears of putting my character and other people in awkward situations. Still, I find myself wondering if I made a bad decision by making her younger. Can anyone help give some advice or share their experiences on RPing as a young character or RPing with them? Thanks for reading~

I was able to join up last second and I was not disappointed! My experience was amazing, and it was my first time RPing in FF14. Thank you so much for putting this all together Miyuki!

Welcome! I joined today as well, wooots!

Thanks so much! Can I ask where a good place to get started is, on here? Any "must reads" for noobs?

Hi there, my character's name is, Angelissa Honey, I look forward to making new friends! I'll make use of the suggested template since I'm new to RP; MMORPG background: FFXIV is my first MMO but I've been playing since 2013. RP experience: None in game. Yet I have LARP exp. Character ideas/info: My character is a female Sun Miqo. She is a young adventurer, silly and immature at times. She grew up in the Ul'dahan orphanage. Honey ( she prefers to being called such) longs to make connections and build a family of sorts. Those who don't mind an air-headed "little sister type" will find her a boon companion. Honey is loyal and is more than happy to tag along on any adventure. How did you learn about the coalition? Google is a friend for a curious mind. What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? Looking for Light Causal RP as this character is an alt. Anything from real life you're comfortable with sharing? I have a RL romantic partner who also plays the game. They are not looking to RP at the moment. Therefore in my RP experiences I am not looking for any romance or ERP. Thanks for stopping by!
