Saloli

Hello there! Welcome!

Awesome! Is sent a request under my generic gamer tag Maeroj through discord.

Hello, I'm pretty new so I don't know if I'll be able to offer the meat to rp that you might want. However, I think since my character has been trying to win over nobles for the reformation it could be a fun dynamic. He's a bit of a religious cynic. He struggles with low self-esteem and is still learning to read. He is low born but isn't from Ishgard. He's coming to settle there though. I've only just made it to Stormblood and don't read too much lore to avoid spoilers. If you were willing to give a new guy a chance I'm willing to world travel especially since our time zones and play times look compatible.

Hey Inky. I'm from Mateus and am willing to world travel. How's the RP scene trating you? I am looking for people to join with and would love to connect with people sho have some experience with RP but are new to the XIV scene. I'd also be happy to RP with your alt when you want to grow her a bit. Let me know. I can swnd you my carrd, have you made one yet? It's a great way to get started with RP in this game I think.

I'm on Crystal as well. I'd be happy to rp. I've been considering getting into DD for little while now so I'd be happy to be around a person who likes to geek about it Also, I have an alt named Songbird but her name is in Cherokee lol

Hey Squeeb! I'm new and nervous with RP too and we're on the same data center. I have two low level alts who are built for rp too. I really love rping with my main but I'm flexible. I'm planning on getting an apartment in Ishgard tomorrow because I love it there. Your character sounds very interesting and I love helping people build their characters up. I'd love to connect and learn together.

Heyo! Welcome! How far are you in the story? I'm a slower player, and I'm terrible at internalizing what I'm reading so I'm not always great with lore. I like it, it just takes time for me. Just thought I'd connect if you were still looking for buddies. It would probably just be through here or on a discord though on since it looks like we're on different servers.

Good evening. I read your card. I know you posted this quite a bit ago but I am trying to get into role play with my rather more angsty character who's already made quite a mess of his friendships. Are you still playing FFXIV? I think I prefer long term RP if the other PC are willing. Alternatively, I am also an artist and I enjoy writing and like to enjoy other people's art. I'm UTC -5 and I usually on in the evening. Feel free to catch me in game under Saloli Dinanelohvsgi. I will check for you in game next time the servers are up if that's alright.

Thank you Faye and Moon Type! I appreciate your guidance. I do RP with my husband occasionally. He plays this snarky lalafell lady and I play a lanky elezen who doesn't know how to treat women. The dynamic can be really fun and really rocky with drama everywhere. His time is very limited, though, and the poor guy often falls asleep while I'm happily making IC conversation . Baring that, I have no one else irl who RPs. That's the hard part. As far as the angsty ars I enjoy playing (and have put a lot of story into), my character is still capable of making a good first impression. I have two alts, but I really struggle playing happy go lucky types. Though, I should try that anyroadway. I had a bit of a breakthrough though. By chance, I got involved in a RP that was being (accidentally or intentionally) set up by a swarm of frog head wearing PCs in and around the Quicksand. Though this was a chance thing, it helped me come up with a hook with someone. They did a WU after I finally plucked up the courage to throw my RP icon on my elezen. All of the stuff you guys have said became apparent in the coming, I don't know, hours that I role played with four different people! The first person was a new, shy RPer like me. It meant a lot that she joined me just to chat or RP casually. She pulled in an experienced RPer. Then, someone else randomly joined us after the first person left. All the while another experienced RPer was going all around the Quicksand taking drink orders in character. It was a thing of beauty. I found that, even among these experienced RPers I was able to hold my own, include the shyer players (which I love to do), and keep my character the way I envision him. I was able to pull back from vomiting tmi about my character's back story. Being around people who used /em descriptions encouraged me to be free to do the same. I realized I'd already learned what I needed to do but needed an example in person to show me the ropes. I didn't apologize more than once. I was even able to engage in a dirty joke or two and follow up rejecting a booty call with grace (this was something I feared having to do, but is inevitably necessary for a non-ERPer like me, unless the PC is my husband XD). I know it won't always be easy. Hooks are still lacking as of right now, but it was such a big confidence booster I really wanted to share!

Hello all! I've done very little rp. I think I like long term rp relationshisps, tho I can't see that being sustainable with most people. I'd like to learn how to do short rps with people. I'm really struggling with hooks even though my character has a back story. Is there anywhere I might be able to get some guidance on this. I'm super shy and usually talk myself out of approaching someone even after reading their entire carrd and making a mock write up greeting in their preferred method of contact. Most people I have approached usually ignore me or run away. Not to say that's many people. I've only rped with two people I don't know irl, and they approached me. They have their own rp lives though but now that I've started I want to keep at it. I just don't feel I have much of value to contribute. I'm not particularly articulate or witty and I often make mistakes under pressure. I feel like I migt be boring people. I also play a guy who isn't particularly nice all the time. Sorry for sounding so morose, lol. Just came here looking for some guidance on how to move forward because I'm a bit discouraged.

Welp, mine has too many: Saloli is a cowardly bean and he's is afraid: -of flying. -that the water in Ul'dah might turn his head into a frog head. -that he'll always be alone. -that he won't survive most dungeons. -that it's likely a bad thing happening when he gets surrounded by magic, even if it's healing magic. I'll leave it there. XD
