I am also new to the game. I have spoken with a few very nice people due to making an introductory thread here. I also seem to happen upon RP at so many different places in the game. It is so very refreshing. It doesn't seem to take much work to find a way into the community here.

Thank you muchly! That was it. I am so in the habit of just using /e, not /em. It seems to make a difference here.

Another quick question ... I notice that when I use /e for a custom emote, it does not print my name in the text box, just the action. Is that just my view? I am assuming that it does not do this for others? Or is there a different way to /emote in FFXIV?

Thank you. I shall look. Viquara is not necessarily mercenary-minded, but she has conflicts in other ways as regards her alignment.

Oh, I enjoy playing villains and have done so many times. I also usually take the 'bad' side when given such an option with factions in MMORPG's; however, Viquara just doesn't feel like a villain. The muse is not sending me that way with her. This doesn't mean she would not consort with villains via RP, of course, but I do not see her as a full-on villain.

That sounds like a very fun group/concept, ansemaru; however, I am getting a feel for Viquara that she is 'good', though possibly a dark, or gray hero. I can see opportunities for her to perhaps buck the system or not always agree with strict law or bureaucracy, but she would not be a full-on villain. I will continue to come up with ideas for her as well as look for some casual RP to get a feel for her. In addition to that, I am still getting my head around the game. There is so much to see and do! Thank you all again for the warm welcomes.

Thank you for the further information. All of this is very kind and helpful.

Thank you very much for the information. It has helped me quite a bit, as I had happened to want to include Ul'dan in my backstory.

Thank you. That does help. Very much. Why would you see the majority of Highlanders in and around Ul'dah?

Thank you. Well, as of now, I am mainly trying to familiarize myself with some of the geography, political landscape, recent history, etc. I created a Highlander, and from what I can gather, there is history of Hyurs all migrating to Eorzea. This makes me wonder when they all did so, why, and in what sort of numbers? Are we to say that no Hyurs could be born in Eorzea? This is all in effort to formulate the where's and when's of my character's backstory.

Hello, everyone. I just recently started playing FF XIV a few days ago and am quite entranced by the game. I found this site by searching for Final Fantasy XIV roleplay in the good ole internet search engine. I am not at all new to MMORPG's or RP, but I am new to the world of Final Fantasy. I am currently seeking information on the lore and setting so as to feel a bit more comfortable with how I might like to RP my character. I have ideas, but I want to be sure they fit as well as just familiarizing myself for my own sake. I am playing on Balmung, and I have seen quite a bit of RP at various places in the cities. This is a very nice thing to encounter in such seeming abundance. I do hope to find friendly, like-minded people with whom to enjoy the game and it's RP potential. I have RP'd in all sorts of guilds, everything from light to heavy. I generally tend to decide which to join based mostly on the people than anything else. Good day to you all.
