Page 2 What a trip! The airship ride was a great way to start my day. I got into Ul'dah right around breakfast time, using my last gil to get some spiced bread and milk. I wasn't expecting this place to be so big! I got immediately lost, but a refugee pointed me towards a place to get work. I started small, hunting down pests in Central Thanalan, and around lunchtime I stopped at the big ol' Sultantree to sit down and eat a meager lunch I'd purchased with my wages. I met a man there, a man from my tribe no less! He was hiding from someone and I thought he might be a bandit at first, but he has kind eyes and a great smile. His name is B'rahz and we were fast friends. I shared my meal and found out he and his boss were headed to my neck of the sea the very next day! Can you imagine? I met Boss, well, A'tirramei. She's really pretty and seems sweet, I can see why she needs a bodyguard. This town is rough, someone might haul her off if she's not careful. I offered to guide them around Limsa Lominsa when they head out that way, so long as they're okay with delaying their trip while I finish the jobs that I took. Can you believe that they agreed? I'm even staying with A'tirramei tonight, I get a room and a ticket for free! I feel more confident in my decision to take up adventuring now that I've made a couple of friends. I just never expected to head home so soon, hah!

Page 1 Sometimes it takes something terrible and drastic happening to show you your mistakes. I had another journal before this, but it's at the bottom of the sea with all of my other worldly possessions, aside from what I could grab when I noticed my houseboat going down. I managed to grab my dagger and shield, my purse, and my boots. You ever try swimming in boots? It's terrible. I used my gil to get this book and a pen, a backpack, and a ticket for the airship. I lost my only real friend here in Limsa Lominsa, and then I lost my home, so you know what's next? Time to get off my ass and seek some adventure! I'll check back in once I'm settled in. Ul'dah! The desert! I can't wait! There's no more room in this world for lazy do-nothings!

B'roxah Ashane - Miqo'te

I. Basic Info Characters: B'roxah Ashane, Lost Squirrel Primary character: B'roxah Linkshells: Primary RP linkshell: II. RP Style Amount of RP (light, medium, heavy): Medium to heavy, I enjoy leveling as much as rp until I'm comfortable, so I'm often out in the field doing my thing. I try to RP while I'm doing things as well, but I am often not paying attention to chat, so if I miss something, poke me! I will add that I am very shy. I am spooked easily and do not respond well to creepy/clingy. Once I warm up to you, I'm told I am just peachy to be around. :cactuar: Views on RP combat and injuries: I think I am terrible at rping combat, but I will do it. Death and injuries can happen, and I'm okay with that so long as it's discussed and not just sprung on me. No "omg I stabbed your char and u ded" kind of nonsense, please. My gals can take broken limbs, long illnesses, etc without any complaints from me. Views on IC romance: Romance can be fun when the IC chemistry is there, but it is not a goal. ERP is most certainly not a goal, so if that's your primary reason for approaching me, please take it elsewhere. That being said, I am open to mature situations when they are part of a story and make sense for the characters. Please be honest and open OOCly and I will be the same with you. Views on non-romantic RP (family ties, etc): I am open to it, so long as we get a chance to brainstorm and our rp styles mesh. Views on lore: I am totally new to the lore and may make mistakes at first, but I am always a stickler to the lore of the game that I am in. People who play "I jumped in a magic mirror/portal/wormhole/butt and ended up here from Azaroth!" tend to get as much respect as the town drunk would get from my characters. Views on chat functions (/say, /linkshell, etc): I only use /say and yell for IC, linkshells depend. I generally assume party and tells are OOC, unless they're in quotations. III. Other Info Country: 'murica Timezone: EST, but I sleep like I live in Hawaii Contact info: PM's here are preferred, my memory for names is terrible and a PM gives me a record I can keep.

I had a good friend lose his whole life when his houseboat sank into the Hudson River, I figure it's a good reason to have someone starting anew, right? I borrowed something similar for my character, not quite so tragic, though.

Thank you everyone, most of my questions I've found answers for here, but if I come up with anything else, I'll be sure to ask!

MMORPG background ~*~ I have played free awful pixel games, WoW, Rift, GW2, and dabbled in a few other games as well! I have a hard time NOT trying the latest games. RP experience ~*~ I've been roleplaying in one form or another since I was 15! Pen and paper, forum, in-game, even the occasional LARP. It's my favorite hobby and one I strive to be my best at. Character ideas/info ~*~ Rox is a city gal, shy but boisterous when the company is right. She's having fun swinging a sword and smashing faces with her shield, and looks forward to seeing more of the world! How did you learn about the coalition? ~*~ My friends B'rahz and Tirra Lirra drug me here, kicking and screaming. (Okay, it wasn't THAT bad. I was sold when someone told me I could have a cactuar pet.) What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? ~*~ I tend to be a heavyish roleplayer, but I like to play the game as well, so I am often out and about doing things! I'm never opposed to being approached for rp while I quest, though! Anything from real life you're comfortable with sharing? ~*~ I run my own little store from home, I make and sell figurines and accessories. I love my local metal scene and go to lots of concerts when I can! I collect cactuar stuff, I have been since the late 90's and have over $1000 worth of plushies, statues, and crazy weird rare things. :cactuar: I'm new to the lore and may require a bit of patience while I anxiously fact check and look things up, because I tend to try and stick as close to the lore as I can. I hope to make some friends here and dig up some fun rp soon!
