Braddock

Greeting fellow Garleans. There is a thread on the HRPC here that is looking for those on Balmung who are playing Garleans based character in game. I thought to create a thread here for those on the Gilgamesh server with the same pretense. Let me introduce myself. I play Fitzwilliam Braddock, a man born and raised in the Empire. He was stranded in Eorzea after surviving the Battle of Carteneau, being left for dead. But the Twelve had different plans for him, and he was dragged from the pile of bodies above him and was nursed to health. Granted a second chance, Fitz started a new life in Ul'dah as a guardsman within the Blades as well as a member of the Immortal Flames. His accent cannot be hidden, but he keeps his past a secret, living out this new life and atoning for his sins. This is but a small overview, and I encourage you to read more about Fitz in his wiki. Check the links at the bottom for his journal to see more into his background. I have also been putting together the little bit of lore and info we know about the Garlean Empire out there (in game or online) as a side hobby. A warning though. There may be spoilers in there for you, but if you are looking for something to help with a story, check it out. Link to it is here. My goal is to use this post for those who have created or are thinking of creating a Garlean-centric FC, or for people who have Garlean backgrounds or are thinking of making one on Gilgamesh. Ask for ideas, share your own, and get together! I am always up for RP, be it Garlean based or not. Feel free to send me a tell in game, walk up to me if you see Fitz around, or even send me a PM here. I would be happy to bounce ideas with you, help you set up some RP, or even assist in making some.

I. Basic Info Characters: Fitzwilliam Braddock Primary character: Fitzwilliam Braddock Linkshells: Driftwood Coast Primary RP linkshell: Driftwood Coast II. RP Style Amount of RP (light, medium, heavy): I am one who vastly enjoys heavy RP whenever and wherever I can get it. Of course, some days I have little time to play, so even a bit of light RP is nice in a tavern or to talk. I'm up for it in any situation at all; crafting, exploring, dungeons, etc. Views on RP combat and injuries: I enjoy confrontational RP immensely. Fitz is a soldier and has been since he was a young boy. He has his scars, mental and physical. I am fine with those who want to get into a scrap with him (as he is a Captain in the Brass Blades and part of the Immortal Flames) through villian RP (robbings, muggings, murder plots etc) since he is one to follow the law and orders. So if you have plots for murder mysteries, artefacts stolen, missing people do let me know! In that regard, I am also big on OOC communication. Please speak to me in anything RPwise can hurt my character or in turn yours. Views on IC romance: ICly, Fitz has sworn off romances and such relationships when he was 21. So RPly I am not looking for them. That does not mean your character cannot have a crush on him. It can be amusing since he is not very good at reacting to such, especially in public. Right now, he is in a 'relationship' in regards to it being deeper but is long term. Views on non-romantic RP (family ties, etc): This is tough. Fitz was born an only child, so has no siblings. I don't know much on the rest of his family as I am still writing that out. So I would have to pass on that at this time, but if you have an idea on how to mesh something with Fitz, don't be afraid to tell me. Views on lore: Though I try not to be a total stickler to lore, I am doing my best to base much of my RP on it. It is hard, since Fitz is Garlean and there isn't much out there at this time. I RP and go with whatever is brought to me unless it is so outlandish. But I do my best to keep openminded. Views on chat functions (/say, /linkshell, etc): I keep IC as much as I can in all channels, unless the majority are OOC speaking in nature (public channels like zonewide etc). III.

Come on and check this out! You might get some item you've been looking for or meet some new friends!

Though I am a Garlean player on the Gilgamesh server, I'd still love to toss ideas with anyone on ANY server. I've been looking up info as well as making some posts of my own with the bit of Garlean lore out there I could find. In case anyone is interested: Check this out on Driftwood Coast And if anyone on either server is interested about my character, here's his bio on the wiki here: Braddock's Wiki

Something will overlap another at some point in life. I guess mine could be called not so unique ... An old soldier with a past, that took on a new life because of the situation he is in now (yeah working on a thing here) I like all character ideas anyway.
