  1. That would be the worst idea -ever- to require players to first buy one of the retarded overpriced FC housing to be able to get a "Door" to an instanced house. I think that would be enough to make me quit the game since personal housing is perhaps the single most important thing to me and why I've been grinding stuff for gil. If it isn't similar to how they have FC housing set up (in that there is a "community" of house lots that you can purchase in a instanced area) then I'll probably ditch the game.
  2. Has anyone heard any recent news regarding personal player housing? Do we know if it's going to mirror company in -any- way? Meaning will there be S/M/L plots? Will the plot layout be identical? Around what pricing will each house be? etc.
  3. Rikve! Welcome to the HRC! I'm a poet and didn't know it! *cuts self* Anyway yay for TOR peeps coming to FF! *goes to read your wiki*
  4. If Lorewise it exist, but Lorewise you couldn't possibly be it, what then? Like I said, you can play whatever you want. But no one better get mad at me when my character is like, "Wait, what? You're a complete lunatic!" in response to someone claiming to be a White Mage. Since, you know, it's still forbidden magic. And it's still Padjal-only (and very, very secret). I already stated how in my opinion this is an oversight on the dev's part, and so I feel no need to "stick to lore". And no offense but I wouldn't RP to please you, I already said I respect what your opinion is, but you obviously can't accept other peoples. So it's safe to say we would never RP with each other anyway.
  5. I haven't made my Miqo'te Characters RP yet so I'm not 100% certain how I will Roleplay them. I do know I would certainly make use of their ears/tails in my RP, having his/her ear scratched or nudging her head against someone in a cat-like manner to show affection certainly. The only cat-like quality I most likely could not use is purring, not that I have anything against people who do, just my characters will most likely not. Personally I think the cat aspect of the race should be played out, otherwise why should I RP a miqo'te at all? Why wouldn't I just stick with Hyur if I didn't want to give any cat like aspect to the character. Just my opinion on the matter.
  6. I wouldn't compare being the savior of Eorzea to being able to play as an actual job given to us in the game that is a necessity for high level play. My point is that classes/jobs should be RPed freely. Not much more to it. Some people would rather not make any distinction between the two and that's understandable. For any individual that wants to RP as any job, all that really matters is how we handle it when RPing with others. You can disagree with me on the comparison, but as I said, it's the same thing in my eyes. If you're going to say, "If I can play it, I can RP it," then the thing is, I already have played Savior of Eorzea, so why can't I RP it? Because it doesn't make any sense? Catch 22, don't you think? I completely understand where she is coming from, and I would respect her IC/OOC even if she looked at mine like she was bat shit crazy for claiming to be a White Mage. At the end of the day people are going to RP how they see fit, and just as I have every right to RP a White Mage she has every right to RP like I'm Michele Bachmann ..I mean bat shit crazy. If lore wise it exists, I personally am very lenient with how my character will perceive people and accept certain things. Obviously someone RP Sailor Moon or something that has nothing to do with lore..that's when my eyes tend to start rolling.
  7. Personally I think if you want to RP a White Mage then I say go for it! I understand that from a in game lore perspective they are suppose to be extinct with 1 special snowflake roaming the world. But I also believe that was the "setup" for the world we live in right now, and not the "current state" of things. It's hard to judge lore when some of it is based on "single player mode" and not "mmo mode", and White Mage lore is totally "single player mode". I know if/when I bring my White Mage character into RP she will indeed RP as a White Mage, regardless of the dev's oversight on the restriction they placed with their lore. Also in game story does not =/= character story, we all have gone through the Sion story arc OOC but IC not all of us RP it ever happened. Likewise I would like to think White Mages could have came across their power in a different form other then receiving the soul of that ONE pedjal. A gift from the elementals, another Pedjal soul, a soul from White Mages found prior to the Elementals having their temper tantrum? There are many possibilities you could craft as to why your a White Mage and some roleplayer's might like it, others won't, ultimately it's your character though so do as you want. I believe most people understand wanting to bend or break lore when it comes to White Mages, and that's purely because of the short sight of the Dev lore team.
  8. Thanks for your time as the admin, this site was a major gateway for me to the rp community and I don't think FF RP would be what it is today without it!
  9. *sigh* and here i thought my 2-300k donation would make a difference...lawls NOT. I mean I get it, they should be relatively expensive...but really..300mil? As someone pointed out its the ROLEPLAYERS who will make the most use out of them...and most roleplayers dont farm shit for gil.
  10. Have they announced if players from other FC will be able to enter/visit your house? Or is it strictly only available to people within the same FC?
  11. Wow, she really does match your avatar! Very pretty too.
  12. For RL version of Caleb and his twin Cayden I went with these dudes, though the twins actually have body hair on their chest, stomach and lower arms.

  14. I second this. Was hoping to get in on the LS if you think I would make a good fit. And would like my character to meet up with some members IC!
  15. Bah! Character music is always so hard for me because it's difficult to find a single song that all around grasps a character. So I'm gonna have to pick 3 heh. The first being the "overall" theme song, I also picture this being what Caleb would sound like if he were to sing. The Next two are more "Battle" themed songs, but still can be applied to an overall theme.
  16. Yay glad this thread could help someone else out too!
  17. So I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to post this question in, and I tried looking for the answer in the "search" option but didn't find anything. So thought I would toss up a post and see if I can get some help. Currently there is no "preview equipment" option in game, making looking for RP gear rather difficult imho. I was curious if anyone knew of any websites up that could act as a "preview" page..or any site that has a few screen shots of outfits with equipment names? Any help is appreciated thanks!
  18. So I'm LOVING these posts, especially that they are IC. When I first answered all these I made them OOC so still have that "draft" which gives more information than you can pry from Calebs lips. I'll post it and provide a link later. The Basics Growing Up Past influences Beliefs and Opinions Relationships with Others Likes and Dislikes Self Images etc.
  19. I. Basic Info Characters: Caleb Agron Primary character: Caleb Agron Linkshells: The Spectrum Guard Primary RP linkshell: The Spectrum Guard II. RP Style Amount of RP (light, medium, heavy): Hum, I would consider myself a medium Roleplayer. For the most part, after I finish leveling that is, I tend to focus solely on roleplaying and might tip into Heavy. But as of right now, I am working hard to grind out the levels so that I can roleplay anywhere without the fear of being attacked by a creature + levels above me. My focus is on Caleb for now, I'd like to get him established in the RP community before I attempt bring any alt characters into the scene. Views on RP combat and injuries: So long as the injuries don't involve loss of limb, losing an eye or permanent damage I'm perfectly fine with leaving the injury to the dice gods. In fact to be honest, when in combat with another player OR NPC I prefer to roll for my actions, and be rolled against. But when it comes to losing limbs I don't leave that to chance, especially since the dice gods seem to take particular pleasure in my misfortune. Views on IC romance: I'm not at all opposed to it, if my character clicks with someone else's character and IC romance buds from it I'm down. I think a lot of people might mistake IC romance for "ERP" and the two are very different in my eyes. ERP is just people looking to get their rocks off, IC romance is player immersion and usually stems from a deep character connection rather then a "greet and beat". Views on non-romantic RP (family ties, etc): All for family ties if people want to play them. Both of Caleb's Parents are still alive, he has an Identical Twin Brother and a Younger Sister who can all be played out by others if it so pleases them. Beyond those 4 characters I haven't introduced any others to his backstory, and the aforementioned are still works in progress themselves. I can keep their names, descriptions etc vague so that people can have their own take on said characters. Well save for the description of his Identical Twin Brother..who is well..Identical. Views on lore: I tend to stick as close to the game lore as possible, when naming my Miqo'te and Roegaydn I made sure to look up the naming conventions of Square Enix so that lorewise their names would make sense. I try to roleplay within the FF14 lore as well, and that is a continuing learning experience. The name thing was just something I personally felt the desire to do, I don't hold it against anyone that didn't use the lore naming convention for their race. As I myself am learning about FF14 Lore, I'm pretty tolerant when it comes to new roleplayers. That said I do draw a line when people start wanting to play vampires and werewolves. Views on chat functions (/say, /linkshell, etc): Generally all of my IC chat is in /say and /tells, occasionally I will make an IC post in linkshells. But I try and use the proper chat function depending on how loud my character is being at that point. /tell would be if he was whispering to someone and others would not be able to hear him. /say for when he is talking at normal volume, and /linkshell if he is trying to contact someone who is nowhere near him. Party chat is almost always OOC for me and If I see others talking in /Linkshell OOC I generally will take that as a sign that it's Ok provided ((brackets)) are used. III. Other Info Country: United States Timezone: Central Contact info: Best way to contact me is either in game with a /tell, or on here with a private message. I tend to get on this site every day so if I see the blinking mail I'll read it. Character Wiki Page: http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Caleb_Agron
  20. Thanks to Gerik Aston for allowing me to use his character page as a template for my own. Here is a going to be ever evolving page for Caleb Agron as I iron out all the details. But here is the general concept for my character. http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Caleb_Agron
  21. Hey everyone I'm new to the FF14 scene but I have been playing MMORPG's for years now. I've played everything from City of Heroes/Villains, World of Warcraft, Star Trek Online, Star Wars the Old Republic, Guild Wars 2 and Marvel Heroes Online. I'd consider myself an intermediate Roleplayer, I'm always learning and evolving especially when it comes to new games and character settings. I heard about this game, and coalition from a friend of mine. I'm currently working on my characters background/story etc and will post it as soon as I get a reply of if my request to use someones template is approved or denied. I would love to meet other roleplayers to get their takes on my character concept. I'd also like to get into a company eventually. I'm currently making my home on Balmung and hope to meet others who enjoy Roleplay as much as I do.
