Hello, Eorzea!
I'm a mid-time RPer from various MMOs, though my longest running anything was in World of Warcraft with a human warlock that liked her drink and her Night Elves. Now, having moved from Azeroth to Eorzea, I felt the need to strike up some stories again after playing around with the game.
I've found myself on Mateus, a swarthy Highlander Paladin. One of many refugees from Ala Mhigo hoping for work in the cutthroat Ul'dahn markets. While I may just be one of far too many without a gil to my name or a true home to return to, I hope to at least offer some aid to my people, and indeed anyone who faces hardship caused by those with too much power and not enough sense to use it.
If you ever stumble across a grumpy old Hyur in the Quicksand keeping an eye on the younglings and enjoying a cool tea, don't be afraid to say hello. On his honor, the old veteran Sigfried Lionheart would at least humor you for a few moments' conversation!
