i love your linework!! very nicely done~

I. Basic Info Characters: Ven Sondraix Primary character: *as above* Linkshells: None Free Company: Again, none II. RP Style Amount of RP (light, medium, heavy): Light: prefer goal-oriented RP, content-clearing still important Views on RP combat and injuries: Never tried it. Not particularly interested or opposed to be honest. Discussed OOC. Views on IC romance: 100% for it. If our characters are appropriate for each other then perfect! IC only, however. Views on non-romantic RP (family ties, etc): Again, I'm all for it. I love the dynamic that it adds to gameplay. Views on lore: Mandatory. I chose to RP on FFXIV because of the lore. I think it sets the realm that we live in, and so it's very important. Views on chat functions (/say, /linkshell, etc): Discuss OOC III. Other Info Country: USA Timezone: EST (Eastern Standard Time) Contact info: Forum PM or In-game whisper [align=center][glow=blue]~Special announcements can be found in the posts below~[/glow][/align]

I found that I couldn't get into Balmung by waiting, though I hear the prime time to try to create a character in Balmung is between 4-8am PST. Never played during these times to confirm though, so take it with a grain of salt. I ended up just doing a world transfer into Balmung from Adamantoise myself, and while it cost $18, it took a couple of seconds at 5 in the afternoon.

You're right. I'll think on it and post additional backstory.

A few days ago I introduced myself as a role-player, but now it's time to introduce Ven. Ven Sondraix. Male Miqo'te, Seeker of the Sun. He is well aware of the oddity behind a miqo'te having such an Elezen-sounding name, but over the years he's begun to shrug off the confused stares. He didn't grow up in a tribe like most Seekers. His parents both were members of a small Mercenary group based in the Black Shroud. His mother passed in childbirth, and shortly after that his entire clan (as he calls his parent's band of miscreants) was killed off by the Twin Adders. Ven was much too young to remember this, and though he has been told the story many times, he feels little anger or injustice at their deaths. After this, he was found by a wealthy Elezen family - the Sondraix's - who took him in a raised him. Not as one of their own, of course, but as a servant boy - and they wasted no time in giving him an Elezen name. Shortly after his 14th birthday, he began to show signs of a natural affinity for Conjuration and healing magicks. The Sondraix's, being eager to have their house attached to such a promising Conjurer, shipped him off to Gridania where he began his training. He holds no ill-will to them, however. In fact, he considers them to be very kind people, often saying, "They took me in when they didn't have to. They could've left me there in the Black Shroud to rot... but they didn't." It is for this reason that he adopted to keep his Elezen name, instead of choosing one more appropriate to his roots. In general, he's very naive. He is 20, but often acts like a wide-eyed child. He is gay, however romantic relationships have never been a priority for him. He wanders Eorzea attempting to help as many people as he can. He stands at 5'4", and with his high energy personality, this makes him hard to keep track of! After being deemed a White Mage, Ven traveled to Limsa Lominsa, where he began studying martial strategies in order to help him monitor the conditions of his battles and his party members more efficently. It was then that he discovered the Scholars of Ancient Nym. Of course, the chance to learn about more healing and mending magicks was to exciting to pass up and Ven promptly began his studies. Now Ven is considered to be a prominent healer amongst the Gridanian people, however he still feels he is lacking something. What that is, however, he is still unsure. ---------------------- :cactuar: And that is all I've come up with so far. Hope you guys enjoyed this small insight to who Ven is!

If a spot for a healer opens up please let me know! I have lv50 WHM and SCH, both about 70ilvl. I've never run any of the raids before so I'd have to learn but I'm willing and eager!

I'm starting a new guild: The Blessed Swords! <<_tBs_>> EDIT: (Name just a placeholder!!) A new guild seeking members who want to explore Eorzea together and help those in need. Light-Heavy RP FC for new to experienced players alike! Seeking to grow with each other in levels and in character. Ideally looking for people who would like to be able to provide for future recruits. Serious inquiries please! I'd like for us to build this FC together and see what we can make it in to! Message me on here or in game (Ven Sondraix) and let's see if we're a match to start what could be a wonderful and benevolent new Free Company presence!!

Thank you all! I'm not quite sure where to begin exactly. Any tips?

hey guys~ I've played FFXIV for a while now and I've always wanted to have some fun with RPing but never got the chance. I recently transferred to Balmung so I'm hoping to have some great times with you all! my character is Ven Sondraix, originally on Adamantoise. He's a Miqo'te Seeker. I played mostly healer, however I don't have much end game gear. My WHM is 50 and my SCH is 42, so I need to continue to work on that! I've never RP'd before so this all is a little daunting. Let's see where this all takes me!
