You've helped a lot so no worries about the DRK thing. From what I've seen it's not too difficult to roleplay, I might just stay away from the DRK mentor NPC as my guide. That's so interesting, I love hearing about others characters. I won't lie I have absolutely no idea what Garleans are but it's definitely going to be one of the first things I look up haha. If you don't mind me asking, is a Pureblood Garlean one that's against Eorzeans or wants peace with them? It's not necessary to answer I'm just interested haha. Thank you Sounsyy! That helps a lot. We haven't actually got a proper group yet. Me and my girlfriend are quite new players so we want to level and advance a bit before we get too involved to make it easier haha. Thanks for everything you've said, I know what to look out for now. The WHM thing is fine actually because we were a bit afraid of being too tied down to the jobs. She's going to be a Shaman/Devout in training instead (we're playing FF3 together and our characters are Dark Knight and Devout). I know that mechanically Shaman's are upgrades of White Mages but it's more that she's super spiritual irl so it just fits haha. Thank you for your explanation of the classes and jobs btw they were confusing me for ages haha.

Ah, thank you so much! This was so good and I'm so glad you told me that. I'm playing a DRK but my girlfriend is a WHM and she was actually planning to be an actual White Mage but now we know that isn't the best idea haha. Thanks so much for the help. I'm definitely going to use that link too, thanks a ton man you're a life saver!

I wanted to start casually roleplaying but I'll be honest I know nothing about the lore. I'm going to read up about it but I wanted to know if there are some taboos I should avoid so that I can start now whilst I read up the general lore. Like what should I NEVER do as a roleplayer backstory wise or other?
