Fen the Fortunate

Hello hello! Been a bit a little while since I've visited, but I figured it would be wise to post up a new, fresh request for connections. What I'm currently on the lookout for isn't too specific. The past six months have been difficult, OOCly, and I'd like to dip my toes, so to speak. RP is a fantastic outlet and escape, and the FFXIV community has always scratched whatever itch I harbor at the time. So I hope to meet some of you soon! I'm currently seeking some RP connections for my character, Fen the Fortunate. I'm interested in both longterm plots and one-shots. Brief overview: Fen the Fortunate is friendly, flirtatious, and fetching Ul'dahn miqo'te that aims to make advantageous connections friends with others in various fields of background and expertise. Brief hooks: Fen is an Ul'dahn native and a frequent staple within the city. Anyone who visits can easily happen upon her. Fen can be hired to conduct "pest control", or what most would call mercenary work. Fen operates her own established & clandestine intelligence network. Others can join it. Others can profit from it, too. Fen is a wanted criminal. She had a hand amongst the Alacran who held power over Ul'dah for a time. Fen is fond of the arts, such as music and dance. She enjoys entertaining others and is versed in poetry and ballads from foreign lands, something soothing for someone pining for home.

Welcome welcome! Hope you've been enjoying your time thus far! I wouldn't say the Quicksand is full of ERPers -- but boy, the sheer amount of people really is overwhelming. My first time in there, attempting to RP, caused me to nearly insta-log. But I had a much easier time in the Pearl Lane of Ul'dah, located in the Steps of Thal. A lot less people means a lot less chat spam. Also, I feel like the RP started out of there is usually a little more interesting than that of the Quicksand (personal opinion, of course!) As far as lore, one resource I always find myself hoping back to is Mirke's Menagerie! https://mirkemenagerie.tumblr.com/post/167534982764/mirkemenagerie-update I appreciate that they often quote things found directly in-game as their sources. If I were you, I'd research just a bit about whatever interests you, as a basis for your character. But simply put, not every character is a genius! Lots of characters aren't learned and can be ignorant of many things. Even I abuse that fact sometimes, as an excuse of my simply not knowing things OOC either. But from my experience, other players are often forgiving about lore, so long as you (and your character) aren't making obscenely incorrect proclamations in earnest.
