Pretty face n' I like the texture on the skirts~ -
Welcome~! Pleases make yourself at home~ As a small aside, I'm going to agree with Aysun on the amnesia thing. I think for a lot of people amnesia has become a cliche way to go about establishing a character. You could try a different route if you're going for an extremely naive type. Maybe they've just moved to the big city from tribal Miqo'te culture and they miss some common sense stuff? If it's what you'd really like to do, though, I'm certainly not going to judge you :3. In the end, amnesia plots CAN be pretty fun and RP should be about having fun, yes?

Hi to you~ welcome to the RPC and all the silliness that abides here.

I thought I'd do a lil collage sum up of the gear types in XIV >.> [spoil][/spoil] There are a few skimpier outfits, but they are, by far, the minority.

Yo! Welcome to the RPC, glad you've come out of hiding~ FFXIV is a rarity in many MMOs in that, for the most part, armor from male to female is virtually the same. Most sets have normal coverage as well (minus harnesses and caotees : P). You should also be able to style your midlander hyur lady to look kind of boyish. There are a few hairstyles that lend themselves to it. Sounds like a solid start to me :>!

I draw in plain ol' photoshop. My tablet is an intuos5, but a bamboo should be just fine. The big difference is going to be the sensitivity, which *will* effect smoothness of lines and line weight and such, but I do a lot of line shaping over my initial lines anyway. That is so say, a make a line and either thicken it up or thin it out. I also do a lot of redrawing the same line in one stroke until it comes out the shape I want it. Looks cleaner, smoother, etc. etc. Your lines don't look shaky to me, over all, but sometimes just by virtue of the tool v. hand dynamic you might get a quiver in a line, true. I find that just drawing that particular problem line in a single, quick(ish?) stroke can give you a preferable result. Turning the canvas so the line you're drawing fits with the natural curve motion your hand makes can help, too. Other stuff you can do involves changing your brush settings, easy stuff. Play around with it a bit and find something you like! I personally like a 0% hardness round brush with the opacity knocked down to 90% and my flow to 80%. Keeps the lines dark, but gives the ends of lines a fade I like. I manually add that "fade" if I don't get it naturally by just erasing the ends of lines in a point. I'm not sure if any of that makes any sense, lul : P

Allo and welcome! SE has confirmed that there are half breeds possible in Eorzea so you probably won't come across anyone that's going to have an issue with them. Have at! : )

http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/blog/post/330 __________________________________________________________________ Greetings all! Fernehalwes here for a quick post before getting back to that mountain of FATE text on my desk. I was passing by the marketing area when I spied something of interest lying on one of their coffee tables... [align=center][/align] HEY! "World of Wapcra" stole our Miqo'te bard! Someone alert the lawyers! Sue baby! Sue! What? This is the newest edition of respected Swedish MMO magazine "Level Presents : World of Warcraft" and they're doing a ten-page spread on FINAL FANTASY XIV? OHHHHHH! I knew that. Thanks Level! You guys are the greatest! Forget that part about the lawyers (they don't listen to me anymore anyway after that spat we had about 'Get to the Copper'). Fernehalwes

Hello and welcome to the RPC! We are pleased that you have found us~ We are pleased that you are pleased to have found us~ We are also silly. Or that's just me, I dunno. Either way, hi!

First off, welcome! I've rp'd in a number of communities myself and so far I've found this one to be the most willing to include new people in long-established circles. Hopefully that gives you some hope . Now: The Answers, Xenedra Style: - Heros: Your average RPer in FFXIV is filling the adventurer role that square enix lays out for the average player. By virtue of this, I feel that a number of people are out there just to do good for Eorzea. Eorzea is also a continent under siege by the baddies from the North, leaving plenty of opportunity for heroism. - Consequence: I think in any community you join, this is going to have a wide spectrum of answers. Luckily, you're likely to find someone who agrees with you SOMEWHERE on the board. I personally have a pretty strong opinion toward realistic consequence. If you're running through a city, waving a gun, yelling "I'M A PRETTY PRINCESS!!" (actual event), you're likely to get beaten up or locked up by the city guard : P. As for things like injury... swords hurt, magic hurts, but healing magic is MAGIC. There's a bit of leeway, imo. - Epic RP: A lot of effort goes into putting together a GOOD rp storyline and some people just don't have that sort of drive in them. There are a number of people in this community who DO put together long story lines for their character and those close to them to follow. With only a few exceptions, though, I'd say these long narratives are usually limited to llinkshell(guild) members. We also have events like manly pageants and fashion shows that individuals and/or linkshells will put together for the whole community. - Extraordinary!: Again, this is going to vary from person to person, but there's likely to be a group out there that agrees with some semblance of your view. It takes all kinds to make an interesting community, from the stoic mercenary leader with the dark past, to the ditzy songstress who's shallower than a puddle in a drought, to the average Joe who goes to work every day from nine to five. Without one, we cannot appreciate the merit or qualities of the other. I personally draw the line at outrageous, lore breaking things like dimension hopping, half dragon princesses. I also think that as long as you tie the qualities of your character together in an interesting way and balance them in a way that you find enjoyable, you can make a pretty solid character. As for getting kidnapped one day, having your eyes stolen the next, having a brief spell of psychosis, then getting possessed by an unknown force that almost makes you kill a guildmate... I do find this to be a bit much if it's all happening to one person week after week. I think dramatic happenings such as this ought to be balanced throughout a group. One week, Greg gets to loose his sight, next week let Bethany get possesed. I ALSO think it's important to avoid crazy lore breaking events (again with the lore breaking), though I'm not usually one to judge people if they WANT to do these things. We're all here to play the game how we like and if it's fun for you? Who cares

Hiiii ! Are you excited about the game? I'M excited about the game! Welcome to the forums! Yaaaay! ...Hyper, sorry, but still welcome

Hello, hello! Nothing wrong with sitting on the fence, but if you'd like a hand down, we're certainly here to help. Well also let your escape back over the fence if you find you're not into RP, too : P. No judgement, heheh! Like Kerr said, we try to be a friendly bunch, so please make yourself at home .

Welcome to the RPC! Hopefully our wiki and the other great sources the 14 community has to offer will be helpful to you. If not, though, please feel free to ask any questions you might have! Some people have started question threads for just that purpose . What other games did you play?

Not at all! I tried looking you up on Skype to add you and two names come up. Are you from the US or Australia? : P
