Greetings, fellow Eorzeans! Thanks for clicking on this topic! You can call me Eon. When I'm not doing comics, I read horror books, watch old anime, and, of course, roleplay.
I've been fascinated by FFXIV for a while now. At this point, I have enough IM roleplay experience under my belt to fill out an entire library, but haven't done much in MMOs. Exploring WoW got stale pretty quick, since no-one seems to like the game the way it is nowadays. Perhaps a newer MMO will offer a less gloomy community.
I was lucky enough to manage to wiggle into Balmung. (Last I checked, the server was still open. So if you've been waiting, give it a shot.) I also made a character on Mateus. Hopefully, we'll bump into each-other sooner or later.
Sometimes, you can catch me running around with my wife, who I've also dragged into Eorzea. We don't mind people barging in on our roleplay, so feel free to come along for the ride.
As for my questions: I've heard the best roleplay experiences tend to come from free companies. But how exactly does one go about joining a roleplay company as a noob? Should you max out your level first? Is it necessary to tailor your character to suit the free company?
That's about it for now. Happy adventuring!
