  1. Yea, I suspect due to the complicated nature of the way the cutscenes work with two players interacting, that there will not be a way to view the cutscene anytime soon. Just like how if you re-watch cutscenes where you have a party, the party is removed from them, but that would defeat the point in a wedding. We recorded both of our weddings, though!
  2. Recently discovered Kat Von D products and they're really great for me. The Lock-It foundations match me really well and cover VERY well (have a super pigmented "smell" to them though), and her studded lipstick in Lolita is amazing. Nice matte finish and it's a great color that can be worn basically anytime of day. Been super pleased with the quality of these products so far.
  3. If you haven't roleplayed with anyone yet, anything is fair game, really. Even after you've begun roleplaying, you are free to change your character if you wish. Just be aware the more tied to other characters you become, the more inconsiderate it can become to make unexpected changes without consulting with the other people first. Again though, you are free to do as you wish with your own character, just be wary of repercussions if you do it, and try to be thoughtful. It sounds like you aren't engaged with anyone currently, so you should be completely fine, though.
  4. Posting here for clarity in case someone has the same concern down the road and searches for this. The short version is: We went ahead and gave it a go, figuring we didn't have anything to really lose. You can, in fact, marry the same characters multiple times if you so desire. The 10-day cooldown is after you marry not after you annul it. (10 days after the wedding ceremony, you may not remarry another person. Once your 10 day cooldown is up, you may "divorce" and instantly remarry, assuming there is a free date available. I had confused this with a friend who got married and then, due to his partner being extremely scary immediately after marrying him, he divorced her, and thus, he got locked into a 10-day cooldown before he could marry a new partner. My partner and I rushed through the quests again, and now we just need to find a new date. Thanks for your help, folks!
  5. I'm going! I've also been doing digital badge commissions for folks, so they can print out a cute headshot of their character with their character's name on it and attach it to their badge!
  6. I've given that some thought, but we have a few other reasons we'd like to just re-do the ceremony. Ultimately, it's one of those things that's not a huge deal if we can't, just something we're thinking about and batting around before we make any decisions either way.
  7. I feel like we need a category to describe the roleplayers who go above and beyond "heavy", to something like "severe" at that point, lol.
  8. I have a post up on the official forums, but no bites yet! Figured I'd ask a few places to maximize my chances of finding an answer. I suspect it is feasible, I just want to be sure before I commit to the idea for obvious reasons.
  9. So my current Eternal Bond partner and I are considering something more or less akin to "renewing our vows" and thought it could potentially be fun to re-host the ceremony again. This would, naturally, mean "divorcing" one another, waiting the 10-day cooldown period, and then re-marrying, which I realize is how that process works. But I'm curious, and I can't find information about it anywhere: Is it actually possible to share an Eternal Bond with the same person more than once? It'd be a cute thing to do, but we don't want to go through the process if it will somehow lock us out of re-marrying each other. I can't really see why it would prohibit this; but at the same time, I don't want to risk it unnecessarily for something we're just doing for the sake of fun. Does anyone have any experience or know about this first-hand?
  10. My character is actually sort of backward for this; she was a caster, but when she left her tribe, decided to forgo any ties to that whatsoever and started focusing on more martial forms of combat, and eventually took up an axe. She's potentially a capable magic user, she just refuses to deal with it.
  11. It's up to you! I personally feel like you want to have enough on there to entice people, and to show whether or not your character is someone they'd be potentially interested in roleplaying with. This can be as brief or in-depth as you want. It'll require them not metagaming on you, but you can always call that out if it occurs and remind them gently that that is not information they would know IC. I personally use my RPC wiki as a way of keeping track of information for myself as well.
  12. I'm with the majority in this thread; any Voidsent is usually too much, and I've never really heard or seen someone do it in a way that didn't just seem "edgy" or forced, to be truthful. I'm sure it CAN be done well, I've just never witnessed it. It always comes off as a super bad anime trope more than a real honest-to-goodness interesting character development.
  13. I keep within the lore within reason. For what I do with my character though, I don't really need to adhere to strict lore to keep her "in-lore" anyway.
  14. I actually do not touch the MSQ at all with my character. My character is not the/a Warrior of Light, she's just some lady running a blackmarket criminal empire behind closed doors, and an inept member of the waitstaff at The Coeurl's Whisker as cover.
  15. I'm actually just....really, really gunshy. I had a pretty bad RP experience that has left me reluctant to engage with the community and makes me especially wary of people who approach me. My character is fun and I honestly enjoy her, but I strictly limit my RP to a handful of people, and anyone who happens to show up at my tavern nights at my FC house. I don't mind casually engaging, but plotting and stuff leaves me cautious.
  16. Shofie is just flatly a berserker, more in a traditional sense, and less the typical "Final Fantasy" sense (where they wear all the beast furs and such). She gets infinitely more dangerous in combat if she gets angry, or hurt, but she also gets out of control and she can become dangerous to friend AND foe at that point. Mind you, she'll only "berserk" if she gets injured or exceptionally angry, she's capable of rationally fighting. It's not like just any and every combat will berserk her. I play her as a fistfighter/axe-wielder in character.
  17. At this time, no, though the nature of the character means it could happen.
  18. This hands down sounds like an abusive relationship, and I would cut ties with this person. This sort of thing very rarely has a happy ending, and honestly, if you're actively avoiding the game and Skype and such to avoid this person, that is a HUGE RED FLAG. People saying this is "situational" and "we're only getting one side of the story!" need to realize a really important point: The OP's feelings are not invalid. People suggesting she stay in this situation are basically suggesting she swallow her feelings and more or less deal with this person, because there may be a "reason" why they are clingy and controlling and manipulative. And make no mistake, that's what this person is doing. They are manipulating the OP into behaving the way they want her to. She is not obligated to stay in a relationship she is unhappy in, IC or OOC, period. Yes, her spouse's feelings are valid too, but the bottom line is, if the OP is actively avoiding the game and social networking stuff because of this person, and isn't "allowed" to make other friends or RP with other people, then that's not healthy. This is not a healthy relationship. It's dangerous. The spouse's feelings do not give them a right to control her like this. I would suggest you pull them aside and flatly tell them you are direly unhappy and things need to change, and that from now on, you will be roleplaying in a manner that you enjoy, and talking to others, etc. If they can't handle this, then cut ties with the person immediately. Honestly though, I've never seen these sorts of things work themselves out very well, and you'll probably have to severe ties with the person anyway. I'm reasonably sure your attempts to talk to them will result in them either attempting to smother you in the worst guilt trip you have ever seen ("I don't have anyone else!" "Don't you care about me?" "I'll kill myself if you leave!"), or them swinging around the opposite way and becoming outright hostile and abusive, ("No one else will want to roleplay with you, your roleplay was garbage anyway!" "Your character is shitty, and you're lucky I even bothered to roleplay with you!" or "Fine, I'll fine other people to roleplay with who aren't awful to me!"). Either way, go in prepared. Take care of yourself. You have the right to enjoy your roleplay, and your game. This person is taking your enjoyment of these away, and they do not have the right to do that.
  19. Theme: Sky pirates/Tavern (They're...sky pirates who own a tavern to laundry money) Free Company Name: The Dusk Wolves Contacts: Shofie Mahowyn, Rhen Mahowyn, Paerl Guldbloewyn, and Vincent Valourheart Website: http://duskwolves.enjin.com/ We aren't really the "good guys". We aren't what I'd label evil by a long shot, but they are definitely more functionally in the morally gray area. We have members who are not aware of the sky piracy, and function solely as upstanding (innocent) members of the staff at our tavern.
  20. I don't really enjoy RP romances with most people, because people tend to not understand where the line is and they blur OOC and IC way too often. I've watched too many people be harassed over "romance" and in one case it bordered on outright stalking.
  21. Usually in cases where wildly different-looking parents can have offspring, the child will take more heavily after one parent or the other--and this works pretty well in the context of Eorzea, since we are limited by the character creator anyway. (We're all basically made of aether anyway, right?) For example, my RP partner's character is half-miqo'te, half-highlander, and for all intents and purposes is a miqo'te, though he's much taller than a normal miqo'te. Stuff like that. There's absolutely no reason mixed-race characters can't exist; we have them in the game established, and developers have flatly said they can exist, but usually don't for cultural reasons (i.e. it's not likely a elezen is going to cross paths with a miqo'te for the most part, but it could happen).
  22. https://m.imgur.com/g4BXm8C.jpg[/img] Shofie here, one half of the art duo known as Maverwyn, and we currently have our commissions open! When you commission Maverwyn, you're going to be getting Shofie's lineart, and Rhen's pretty coloring! A general quick price guide is above; but for more samples of our work please visit maverwyn.tumblr.com Our Terms of Service (and a somewhat more detailed price guide) and Commission Request Form can be found at tinyurl.com/maverwyn Thanks for looking! ♪ (Please note, I check our commission interest form about once a day, so it make take a day or so before you hear back from us. I do my best to keep up as quickly as possible, but I do maintain a day job and sometimes that keeps me a bit busy.)
  23. Art is both for me, though foremost it's a hobby. I use it to supplement my day job, though, so in that way it's also a job. (Which reminds me, I ought to make a commission post here someday...) I don't necessarily recommend art school. Noah Bradley wrote a good article about ways to get a college-level education without the cost, I recommend checking it out: https://medium.com/i-m-h-o/dont-go-to-art-school-138c5efd45e9 (I hope links are okay!)
  24. Yeah, having a job can be a pretty big hindrance to getting things done sometimes in-game. ;_;
