All these Yakuza fans, I see I have arrived in the right place! Thanks for the warm welcome

I'm Gideon (xe/xem) and I've been lurking for a while before finally making an account so I could post! Following the little template provided, here's some info about me: MMORPG background: I've played FFXIV for around 2 years, and prior to that I played WoW off and on for about 6-7 years. Tried GW2 for a bit but it didn't really stick. RP experience: RP has been a major part of my life since about 2009! I started on MSN and Tumblr (before it got really graphics-heavy with funky fonts in the posts and wacky blog layouts and stuff), and had a couple of brief stints on Dreamwidth, but for the most part for the last 5 years or so I've been doing RP via email with my partner-- who I got to know through RP in the first place! Character info: I've got a post up in Making Connections, but my main character (A'rhaqa Tia) has hubs on Tumblr and Carrd. I've got a couple ideas for other characters percolating so info on them might be coming in the future! How did you learn about the coalition? I came across it multiple times when searching for resources about RP in FFXIV, and poked around a bit until now. What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? Probably medium to heavy; I'm used to lengthy stories and plot arcs and love to really get deeply involved in my characters' lives and their relationships with others. Other misc. info: When I'm not playing XIV, I'm drawing and designing merch for various fandoms I'm in, or playing other games (faves include the Yakuza series, Ace Attorney, historical citybuilders, chill farming sims, and several other FF titles). Looking forward to meeting folks here and getting a little less afraid of the newness of XIV RP!!

Hello! Long-time RPer here, but brand new to FFXIV RP. I'm looking for contacts for my dumb catboy-- read on for the basic details, and I'll include his Tumblr LFRP post and carrd at the bottom for more complete information. Character Name: A'rhaqa Tia Age: 25 Gender: Cisgender male. Sexual Orientation: Gay. Profession: Varies by 'verse, but for most RP purposes, he's an on-again-off-again adventurer, weaver, and leatherworker by trade. Brief Personality Overview: A'rhaqa Tia is a friendly, extroverted young miqo'te born within his tribe's territory in Thanalan, who in adulthood has gone on to become a proficient archer and a perhaps unexpectedly skilled artisan. He's a very "life of the party" type, has a bit of a drinking problem, and tends to avoid committing himself to people or places despite getting along easily with nearly anyone and having something of a propensity for one-night stands. Potential Hooks: Bar/Tavern. Rhaqa drinks like a fish, and naturally can often be found at just about any local alcohol-serving establishment, regardless of time of day. He's happy to chat with strangers, whether they approach him or he gets the idea to say hello. Craftsmen's Guilds. If your character is a fellow artisan, they might run into A'rhaqa at the guilds for weaving or leatherworking. Where are my pants? It's not particularly uncommon for A'rhaqa to wake up in an unfamiliar bed. You might encounter him on his walk of shame after a night of revelry, or perhaps it's your inn room he ended up in last night. OOC and other important tidbits: I am 25+ and will not write with anyone under 18, and would prefer RP contacts to be over 20. I am located on the west coast of the US, in Pacific Standard Time. I'm primarily active between 3pm-1am PST most days, and basically all day on weekends, with breaks to make and eat meals with my partner. My primary focus for Rhaqa is relationship building and using relationships to propel his character growth. I do tend toward romance (and especially long-term romance plots) but lord knows the boy could use some found family as well. While I am open to ERP (Rhaqa's a little bit easy, so...) it's not a primary objective and I would prefer that to come after some organic development or at least once some player rapport has been established. I prefer long-form/paragraph style RP but can adapt to pretty much any writing style. Discord or another medium conducive to long-form writing (gdocs, even email) is strongly preferred, as I have not RP'd in-game before and prefer to be able to reply from anywhere, not just at my PC in-game.
