I. Basic Info Characters: Y'lyfriel Sikah (Miqo'te Seeker of the Sun) Primary character: Y'lyfriel Sikah Linkshells: n/a (yet!) Primary RP linkshell: n/a (yet!) II. RP Style Amount of RP (light, medium, heavy): Honestly, it's hard to say. My heart lies with deeper character interaction and compelling story-telling, which leans towards "heavy." However, I can just as often be found running around the world OOC, participating in all manner of shenanigans. Probably "medium leaning towards heavy," then. Views on RP combat and injuries: Perfectly fine, so long as it's handled appropriately (i.e. give me a say in how/when/if my character undergoes serious injury.) Combat roleplay offers a way to affect lasting, physical impact on our characters in a way that in-game mechanics just don't. Views on IC romance: Also just fine, so long as it's allowed to develop naturally. Nothing forced, nothing scripted. No "pre-destiny," as it were. That being said, I enjoy open-world exploration, adventuring, and combat RP more (mainly as it entails less sitting around, talking. More running around, shouting ) Views on non-romantic RP (family ties, etc): Sure, why not? As long as it's compelling and fun, it's fair game. My only stipulation is that the story-arc not be focused solely on the development of whichever character is in the spotlight. (Moreso, I like "family ties" and "personal story" RP to function as a medium for those participating to engage their characters, and grow them, in unique ways.) Views on lore: It should be followed. When it isn't, said deviations should be made known to anyone that might be affected by it. Views on chat functions (/say, /linkshell, etc): I positively adore that Linkshells are potentially an IC function. So, /say and /e are spatial, while /linkshell is long-distance IC. Everything else will likely be OOC, unless otherwise designated III. Other Info Country:United States Timezone:Central Contact info:PM me here on the site!

Hey folks I'm Xerali, and I've settled myself fairly well into FFXIV:ARR at this point. MMORPG background It started in World of Warcraft, stayed there for a few years, then had a brief stopover in each of Star Wars: the Old Republic and the Secret World. Currently, I'm active in Guild Wars 2, and am looking to dip my toes into the Hydaelyn 'verse. RP experience I was a tabletop roleplayer for a few younger years (D&D and Call of Cthulhu) before dedicating most of my RP energy into MMOs. Upon my arrival in Guild Wars 2, I started playing around in more forum-based, and Skype-chat RP; both opened up new avenues by which to explore the game world, and I'm still very active in both types of roleplay. Character ideas/info Currently, my only character is Y'lyfriel Sikah, a Seeker of the Sun Miqo'te. ICly, she's an arcanist/scholar. Much of her backstory is still under construction (and will likely remain so, until I've RP'd her with a few people.) She's currently situated in/around Limsa Lominsa for sake of her studies. She's fairly aloof, especially around new faces, but she may warm slightly with familiarity. Aside from her studies and trials, she has long held a penchant for cooking, and occasionally spars with a lance or a staff, for sake of exercise. How did you learn about the coalition? Reddit and Google. I happened across a few other sites before finding this one. The Coalition does a great job of presenting/promoting Free Companies and Linkshells; it seems the go-to place for FFXIV roleplay interests. What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? Light, medium, or heavy? Probably medium. I enjoy rich, detailed stories and story-arcs, but I also like to run around out-of-character, occasionally (FATEs, dungeons, general OOC shenanigans.) But roleplay is where my heart is. Anything from real life you're comfortable with sharing? (Work, school, hobbies, etc) I work fairly average times, morning to evening, Monday through Friday. The occasional Saturday. I recently finished an MA in English, which was a follow-up to a BA in Creative Writing/Literature, and am actively working towards both applying those degrees to a profession, and seeking further schooling at the same time. Like Y'lyfriel, I'm something of a foodie. The kitchen is my home. Get too close, and more than a few recipes are sure to rub off. * Cheers! Looking forward to joining the community.
