I'd like to sign up Ruri Shingetsu as both a Merchant and an archer for the contest. Ruri will be representing Shingetsu Fishery and promises to fill the bellies of both the living and the dead with delicious food.

Throwing in my vote for Mateus. There's a small cluster of us, but we're trying our damned hardest to create a thriving roleplay community.

When it comes to amnesia, I feel like it can be done very sloppily or very well. Which is why I also agree with researching cases of amnesia to see how it works in real life and how it can be played. It really depends on how you use it. For example, I've played Chouwa for almost over a year now. When I gave her the amnesia, I wasn't intending on retconing anything that had happened to her prior to the memory loss. Everything that had happened still happened, Chouwa had forgotten certain events. All the characters who knew her still knew her, she just wouldn't remember some faces. If you play your cards right, amnesia can be a good plot tool. For example, Chouwa was recently remembered someone who she was very close with before the amnesia, someone she had treated like a stranger after her accident. The next time she meets him again she's going to apologize. Do your research, plan out how your character is going to react, and if you're giving it to a character who's already out in the world, make sure to let roleplay partners know the amnesia is a thing.

I really wish Square would give us SOMETHING, ANYTHING on lore about Red Mage. We've gotten so much on Samurai that it's not even funny and it's kind of unfair. My own personal theory is that it's origins are from Gyr Abania. Maybe not from Ala Mhigo directly, but definitely in the Gyr Abanian area.

Heck yeah! I've been looking for a dance class for sometime now! Glad to see one's been started up!

Well! This blew up quite a bit more than I expected! Definitely going to move this into the genuine planning phases, please look forward to it~

I know for a fact there's Lace and Steel, which deals in all kinds of underground dealings, including prostitution. I know they're an fc, but if I remember correctly they do have a linkshell. As for other contacts, I can offer up either Chouwa Morrison in learning magic, or Ruri Shingetsu in learning how to fish. Wishing ya the best of luck.:thumbsup:

Chouwa will never ever admit it...but she likes The Crucible. Yes it's a tabloid, yes it's complete and utter shite, and yes most if not all of it is false. She doesn't care, she reads the latest paper with her breakfast then gossips about them with a friend. Another is moko cigarettes. But that is becoming less and less guilty with each migraine that is successfully relieved.

I for one, welcome our fuzzy and pomtastic overlords, kupo!

I'm a little ticked off that Omega's the reason we're going to Ala Mhigo and not "Shit we've left these folks to rot for twenty years". It's treated like a goddamn afterthought. Hopefully things will change during Stormblood itself. Also I totally called the Yda/Lyse situation.

Chou's an up and coming performer, so any resources involving performing would be awesome.

I agree with the bolded. It's a little frustrating trying to come up with a canon compliant reason for a character to become a red mage without any information what so ever.

Before I go hogwild into busting out linkshells and what not, I'd like to test the waters for an idea I had. So we all know of the wonderful invention known as linkpearls, which allow you to hear people over far distances. Basically ffxiv's radio system. Cue me a while back thinking you could potentially run a radio station over a linkpearl. The idea won't leave me alone and a character of mine (Who really needs a wiki or something) has become intertwined with linkpearl stations and all that entails. Thus this thread. Would anyone actually be interested in either putting on performances over a pearl and potentially listening? An alternate idea I had was something akin to Potterwatch. A cluster of individuals reporting on the going ons in Doma with a very resistance feel to them. But, it all depends.

You defeat the Dancing Candle! - You obtain 3 pots of wine red dye. - You obtain 1 clump of suspicious herbs. - You obtain a dancer's sash of coins. - You obtain 1 stick of charcoal - You obtain an eternity ring.

Chouwa smells like knives and passion. Somehow...that's exactly how I expect her to smell.
