Well ain't that a bag of butts, been stuck waiting in line behind one person for a good while. Still, EA has been very smooth aside for a few hiccups, I think I can be happy to call a couple day break while I obsess over Batman for a time.

Wait I think I forgot when the empire's taking of their homeland happened. I know in the storyline there's a thing with an Au Ra refugee just coming over but I can't remember if her deal is 'no this went down right now and I bailed' or a 'things got desperate so we're gone'. I mean, that's the problem with new races getting tossed in with little to no real lore around them, the literal only Au Ra we had was one person before this so she's kinda the only source we can use.

Well they're from a nation that's been dominated by the empire pretty bad, there could easily be refugees anywhere.

I like horrible things and RP and puns, is this the LS for me y/n

Is there any bit of fresher Au Ra lore in the expansion? Seems kinda weird to have them as just this random thing that apparently has nothing to do with anything?

I don't think EVERY tribe would be part of it (Can't really imagine the dudes who have death wishes who have slaughtered a bunch of tribes are super welcome) but yea I could see that being a thing for the majority of the tribes.

Sounds legit to me

Well I've moved from 2002 errors to 5006 ones, that's...progress...maybe? Oh well, time to make some dinner and chill. Good thing about being a lame slow leveler, I already feel zero pressure

Well I needed a break anyway :cry:

Nope I just got crashed too

Finally settled on a tribe, Sarnai Qalli lives! Now to just get my catboy fantasia'd into a dragon lady and it'll be finished!

Yea they left Moks way too vague I think, I get wanting open ended stuff but you kinda can't just leave it as 'they hide in other tribes' because man that could mean anything at all.

Oh here's a tribal thread, neat. Like I said in the other one for my Xaela I'm leaning to Qalli,but I may wind up going Kagon, or maybe Ura, all of those are fascinating to me.

I was torn between making my alt an Au Ra or a Roe, and leaning to Roe because, hey, I wanted to stand out from the scaly horde. But...fuuuuck, Mongolian influences, diverse tribes (even if some are kinda lame, oh neat you make sleds, that is a very distinct and rare feature indeed...), and generally neat concepts behind them...yea probably gonna go there. Leaning to Qalli tribe, anyone else gonna be a songbird? It's that or Ura or Kagon, all three of those are very interesting to me.

Wow that is...way more detail than I expected!

Gimmie some

Currently in school to become a funeral director myself. Not exactly the cheeriest job but it's very fulfilling. I volunteer at an animal shelter on free time.

I'm positive there will be plenty around to RP with still, don't fear there.

Yea right now my highest desire is a /hood emote honestly. Don't gotta stop taking up the head slot, just let me pop that hood down when I'm hanging out in town with friends. As for actual outfits I'm with the OP wanting nearly anything from FF12, so many neat designs that, like everything else from 12, are absolutely ignored as if they never happened.

Yea I've had to go afk suddenly in hotspots and all but bailing while standing on a table or something is just kinda silly. Hardly the biggest breach but especially in a place like Quicksand where space is kinda a premium that means odds are good someone is gonna have to RP with your butt in their face. And not in the fun way.

Yea the statement that made everyone happy was 'open to the people', he could well have been talking out of his ass, sure, but as of now the news going around the world is 'they gonna toss the gates open'. By how it sounds Ishgard is pretty screwed, they need more than just one warrior to help them even if gamewise the WoL will be doing the 'big jobs'.

Yea, Fortemps runs Dragonhead, right? I knew they had no problem tossing cash at anyone who was willing to help, wasn't sure if they were unique weirdos or if 'yea ok pay the outsider to do this dangerous job' was a common thing.

This seems like the best place to ask, while I'm planning out a possible alt idea for the expansion. Does Ishgard have any implications of mercenary use, or do they mainly stick to their knights? I'm trying to think of a hook a Roegadyn could have there, but I'm thinking it may be more 'realistic' to have them mainly stick around Camp Dragonhead with a reason for going to Ishgard proper of 'yea I wanna see what's past those big dumb gates'.

Yea as of now there's not a ton of Ishgardian civvy stuff to do other than refugee and runaway stuff. I imagine when the gates open we'll see more of those come though.

That's a just plain excellent QoL change in general.
