E'irawen

Thanks, Kylin! I feel much more relieved about the decision, lol. I haven't RPed with anyone canonly. Only a few little non-canon things here and there. So it's all good. Thank you, again!

Thanks for sharing your opinions on it! I feel a bit better. Really wanted to change E'iri's name for personal reasons, related to some IRL crap. So I just didn't wanna jump into RPs to have fun, only to have some memories brought up, y'know? But at the same rate, I didn't want to cause anyone grief. Thank you!

Thanks guys! Got it all settled. Next question might be a really annoying, awkward one, that I kind of fully prepare to get potential flack for, lol. But the question is: If a character you've made hasn't had any RP or interaction yet, and thusly no one has met him ICly, but everyone OOCly is aware of them to an extent for a couple months. Is it weird to change something like their name, if you're not satisfied with it? I've been kind of fine tuning some things, and it was a thought that came up. But I'd really like not to bother anyone if it's an inconvenience.

Personally, I avoid it. The Musketeers have their own presence in the game (That being a kind of police force in Limsa Lomninsa), so until those doors are open for recruitment, I tend to steer clear of declaring any affiliations. On top of that: The Barracuda Knights have very specific types of firearms at their disposal. Listing a gun that is somewhat atypical might not be a bad idea. Example: It's safe to assume that they keep on top of firearms advances. They clearly utilize Howdah pistols, and what look to be early bolt-action rifles. Given that our characters may not be with the Barracuda Knights, they might not have access to things that are more advanced than say, a Blunderbuss. Or a few wheellocks. Okay then! I thought so, but I was just curious. But I venture that just a typical pistol or something is alright to go along with?

Thank you all! I have another much less involved question. I realize that people probably use guns in RP and what not and that it can be a specialty regardless. But I know it's been hinted by Yoshi that we'll have a musketeer guild at some point. Do you guys avoid saying your character is part of it, for now? until then?

Yes, both of you can get up in line. =] Just leave me references!

Oh! I'm technically taking them again, the wait is just a little long. It's difficult to say. I jump between all the pictures often, because if I work on just one too long, I get a little stagnant. x3 But you're more than welcome to make a request!

Added Cole's commission to completed works list.

Just wanted to share these links, as they're pretty snazzy fonts. Official Font: http://www.ffxivcore.com/topic/6286-eorzea-font/ Handwritten Variant: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/60187-A-handwritten-Eorzean-font-variation Cursive/Super Fancy Variant: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/60306-Yet-%2Aanother%2A-new-font-fancy-style The links go to FFXIV Core (first link), and the other two are threads on the Lodestone. Obviously, I didn't make them! But I wanted to share the resource for anyone who might not already be aware. Enjoy!

And now for an intermission. E'iri tries to practice her Eorzean hand.

I ran it originally at 1280x720 iirc, at Medium settings. Got around 4800, I think. Ran it on High settings at my monitor's full resolution (1600x900) and got just around 2500. So next I tried to run it on 1600x900 on medium settings, but with some custom options. Got just over 3000. Needless to say I am pleased. I expected to bomb.

Download it here!

Check it out here, everyone! http://www.massively.joystiq.com/2013/02/21/massivelys-comprehensive-preview-of-final-fantasy-xiv-a-realm/ There is so much stuff to read, videos to watch! I'm still screaming a bit over the tour of Eorzea video!

I'm not sure words can actually show you how much I love this picture.

Thank you, Merri! Been having issues with my mouse double-clicking things even when I don't. My apologies.

I know the feels. I'm happy to have a date to look forward to. It feels terribly far away, though. Even if it is just 10 days.

Nope! Never metagaming. So far people around the RPC here seem to be alright with the idea, OOCly. I know ICly, I expect him to be kind of looked a like "what the shit, man" and the like, and that's perfectly okay. Makes for interesting conversation and interaction, no? I'm just not sure how to RP it out like... Say there is an RP scene going, and for whatever reason, they talk to him- or he to them. I'm not sure how to actually..write that out. Does he just stand there in a daze? Does he actually speak out loud in return? Or does it matter how I go about it?

So I might just...keep this thread and ask multiple questions, similar to Weffrey's question box. I feel kind of bad for spamming up the section! My newest question is about E'iri's ability to talk with elementals. I mean, I know it exists, and I've gotten everyone's "blessing" of sorts to let him have it. Unfortunately, though, I didn't get all that far in the game's storyline to know how exactly it works. The most I've seen was little moogles just kind of staring off into space and nodding or shaking their head every now and again to some invisible force. I don't see any other players (immediately off hand) that can do this, either? E'iri is unlikely to really just announce to the world that he can do it and probably just thinks himself crazy. But! Basically, I'm not sure how I should go about actually RPing any of that out when it does come up. Is there any particular norm for it that you guys keep to? Or do I just kind of wing it (within reason)?

Absolutely! Go ahead and PM them to me when you've got them together. =]

I'd like to volunteer E'iri, as well as my artsy services!

Thanks so much, guys! ;; I really appreciate it. Once I get a commission or two out of the way, I will probably start doing some of those freebies again, in between. Sorry to have kept everyone waiting so long! My muse is a fickle mistress.

Thank you, kindly!
