Kage

Kage glances at the silent Roegadyn, wondering if perhaps she wanted the solitude before turning to the others. He bit his lip and didn't want to delve too much into the sorrows they were facing. "What kind of skills do you have for work? Any special weapons?" Kage nods, "I have... some money from odd jobs here and there. It's not a steady income currently but I hope to have one very soon." He grins, thinking of the recent events in his life and continues, "I've always found the people a joy. Sometimes too rowdy but most times it keeps me from feeling lost and lonely..."

Did any non-NPCs wear Scion outfits? I assumed the video was showcasing some of the crafted (dyeable dungeon gear) with emotes and dances that are being added

Well yes they did say it was preliminary after all. This makes me super excited ; I want to enjoy that wonderful Clash on the Bridge!

This is my bad. I phrased it horribly. There's no actual new GC ranks but that there are new ranked items. Things were shifted and Formerly-philo mats have been added.

You're not a dragoon so it's ok. <3 If only Titan Ex was this easy T_T; THERE IS MORE T6XsuVfgqqY

Does this help? Got it from reddit http://pastebin.com/pQ6YDJDb

They didn't say anything specific >< But they're related to Gerolt's Masterworks which include

*16bit ;p <3 And the dragoon gets the pretty loot T_T

uDg44MVJLrw OH DRAGOON. :<

((BUT I DON'T HAVE FORMAL WEAR DDD: And I'm hoping to see some better ones than the ones they've previewed. A lot of them look pretty ugly otherwise I'll make an Infantry shirt outfit. Hopefully))

Things I thought were interesting/great to confirm: LoTA: Gil reward BoC T5 must be completed in order to get the quest "Another Turn in the Coil" which is a pre-req for T6-9 Players may now enter the Binding Coil of Bahamut via the Duty Finder with a full party. * With a later update, the Echo buff will be applied to all party members upon incapacitation. Moreover, a full party will no longer be required to register via the Duty Finder. The weekly limitation on lotting items has been abolished. Amdapor Keep Got even further nerfed at Demon Wall - No more BEES Echo is being added to other things, not just Coil: Players will now receive the power of the Echo in the event all party members are incapacitated during certain trials. Hard Modes, Extremes, Chimera and Hydra T5 min avg ilvl to get into it once people can queue by themselves by DF: i82 New Grand Company ranked items - things were shifted Most of the mats if not all that were bought using Philo are now through GC >Sultana and Flame General portrait Weekly reset timer has been moved for certain events to 1am PDT Tuesdays Why do this: Limit break effects will now always display regardless of battle effect settings in the Character Configuration menu. D: Meteor anyone?! Return can no longer be used when engaged with an enemy. -Pretty sure this means I can't return in CT when I know it's a wipe T_T From the Live Letter Notes I'm seeing on Reddit No. Fantasia is not confirmed. They're working on it "asap" 24 man Premades for CT will most likely be in 2.3 Golden Saucer hopefully 2.3 "•Gilgamesh battle will be available for everyone to join in so it's fun and not hard (8 players)"

Kage nods and murmurs, "Pleasure." Taking a sip of his drink he grinned. "Outside of the fact that I'm currently renting a room at the inn, I come here at least twice a day if not more." "Salem used to be here much more often. He's the one that got me to start sitting on the railing. But I see him every so suns now..."

I like to imagine that by now, Jajara has neck muscles of steel. Shoulder seats, though... *ponders.* Kage hasn't gotten to that point and neither has my monitor perspective. :> The shoulder seats are quite comfy. And usually Kage doesn't even need to ask his friends for a ride, it just happens~ Think they've all been Miqo'te too. I think Kage needs some more Roe friends. Or big highlander friends. Of course if it was from someone who wasn't his friend, Kage would not be pleased. At all.

I certainly found myself blitzing to 50 asap. It was a sort of "let's get them up so we can do these things together!" I sort of did and didn't wish they did the 8 man party stuff so late.

Yup. I have no idea how I feel about this since I'm already level 50.

Kage looks to Rurutani, hoping he is not overwhelmed by the pretty much isolated conversation, before extending his own hand. "My name is Kage." He frowns saying, "I think I've heard of him traveling through the Black Shroud but I'm not sure. He usually returns to the Quicksand. I see him once every 8 suns or so now."

Kage's been making lots of Miqo'te and a few Hyur friends. Many of them see him as 'cute' and adorable which he just sorta let's go. Myself on the hand I'm "yay! but not exactly the type of reaction I want for him other than for appearances..." In that matter, he treats everyone mostly the same except for long periods of time his neck hurts. Staring straight up. In which case Kage's favorite spots on the rail in Quicksand comes back up or he's able to get a friend to lend him a shoulder seat. He does so like to sit on his friend's shoulders... >_>; Rehashing Sounsyy's post... http://ffxivrealm.com/wiki/lalafell/ http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/142175-Lalafell-Predators/ Apparently, Rocs aren't the only things eating Lalafell. "It's dangerous, take this X" Seems strangely fitting now...

((I could be wrong cause ICly I think Salem told Kage he had no skill with lances and he only got it because of Cain. OR HE WAS AND CAIN'S JUST BETTER. MY MEMORY IS QUITE HORRIBLE)) Kage scratched his chin and frowned, really wishing he could help the Miqo'te. Lots of things were similar but for some minor details. "I have to admit, Salem's a bit... well he changes his appearances a bit." He grabbed the ale, remembering how much he'd started to drink when his anxiety rose up over his friends. "He said he was at a battle in Cartenau and it led to some... well some recent issues that further changed his appearance recently." Kage scratched the back of his head and said, "Salem told me after the battle in Cartenau he'd had memory issues. Conflicting ones even. I don't remember when he told me about his skill with a lance, perhaps it was when he had memory issues? "When everything was finally resolved, well, his appearance became different. He got bigger, voice changed, hair slicked back and... his tail is actually a little shorter now." Kage chuckled a little, remembering the ribbing he gave Salem for it. And also the strange feeling it was, trying to get used to the minor differences in his friend. "If it's the Salem I know... I haven't seen him in Ul'dah too recently, not as often as I'd used to. I think he's off doing work with the Immortal Flames? If not, you can usually find him having a nap sitting on the rail here in Quicksand."

Kage was concerned now. Oh, this S'alem definitely sounded like his friend Salem to him. He smiled at the Miqo'te, nodding along with Rurutani and motioning for her to sit down. He wanted to know about this. Out of concern and curiosity. He also did not like seeing people in need not get any sort of help, and if this was not Salem, it was not like it was time wasted. "Is he one of the shorter Miqo'te males around? The dark hair a purple shade of sorts?" Kage knew that Salem had changed in appearance somewhat since the Cain incident but he did not know by how much he might have changed since his battles alongside other Miqo'te, and the Dragoon Cain. Kage scratched at his goatee and said, "I -might- know of whom you're seeking. He sounds like a good friend of mine that I made here in the Quicksand. He's changed recently though in appearance because of certain events in his life. I didn't think he had much skill before with lances until recently though..." ((I'm staring at his lodestone right now and based on when I saw him on Monday he hasn't~ But oh god I already forgot what he looked like pre-cain ;A; Like his hair. But his tail is shorter now > ))

I have a feeling that Lalafell just seem to not "age" physically past a certain point except for very minor barely noticeable features like hair color. I pegged Kage as 22-23 but I'm starting to think he needs to be older. Or younger. I'm not sure D: And nah your comment about cute or not is fine I think. I was only commenting on it because it's something I've constantly thought about.

I KNEW THAT TANK STUFF IS THE NEW TOMES STUFF T_T /welp Interesting update about the glamor system, pretty much just confirming the inkling suspicion I had about whether or not you can use one item to be used as the appearance of others. Is it just me or was I under the impression that these were the new Allagan drops? The tank one certainly looks like the concept art I'd seen for Heavy Allagan Armor.

I feel like I do this unintentionally. I certainly made Kage to appear as cute and adorable as I wanted but never was my attention to make his character and personality cute. Since I find it easier to just RP his character out as I would react... I guess I'm cute since people have told me kage's cute. orz I think I read some post that Lalafell's bodies just don't age the same way as (we) others do. I mean Ququruka doesn't look much older than other Lalafell or others like Papashan just have gray hair.

It's been obvious from my posts... but ICly and OOCly I've always loved Ul'dah. It's my starting point in the game and also Kage's home. I find the politics between everyone very interesting though I and my character haven't delved into it very deeply. Quicksand's become a bit too crowded for me (Last night it was hard to filter tells, RP, linkshell chats etc. so much so that I missed out helping my RL friends because the I didn't see that they needed my help until I asked them later why they didn't ask me...) but it's still fun to just bask in and watch what's going on. I've just wanted to get in on some non-bar/pub/tavern plots but I find it hard to get myself into them without planning things. It'd be nice to get around from Quicksand and take in the other spots of Ul'dah. The ossuary, parts of the steps of Thal areas, etc. ><

Kage smiled, sipping some tea and glancing at the ale, grinning before answering, "My name's Kage." He continued, "I'm from the Thanalan area myself, only permanently moved here to Ul'dah recently." He could not help his eyes wandering about the Quicksand, even though he knew it was rude. He always loved seeing his friends here and opening his circle of friends to others always appealed to him. He gave his head a little shake, pinching his brows a bit answering Rurutani, "Oh no... Just been an interesting moon." Kage's interest piqued, overhearing the word "Salem" through noise by Quicksand's occupants. He heard it again, closer, seeing a Miqo'te asking for his friend. When she approached he was wary but also very curious. "Hello, miss?" He was not sure why anyone was looking for his friend, but he didn't want to put Salem in danger if this was it. After all, it was only about one moon since Salem became... different. To say the least.
