Finally finished up a couple of workloads so managed to snag a little time to sketch today. SO I drew little Tima, to add to his wiki page.

Phew! Well then, I'm glad you like it! Just so...so tiny and cute... *squishes all the lalafell cheeks*

... Sandy Longchamp Not too shabby!

I. Basic Info Characters: Tim'a Fei Primary character: Tim'a Fei Linkshells: Primary RP linkshell: II. RP Style Amount of RP (light, medium, heavy): Light to Medium. It depends on how into it the people around me are, and I'll usually aim to match it. Views on RP combat and injuries: Well, considering how many monsters and baddies are in this world, I think combat and injuries would be inevitable. I am not against it. Views on IC romance: I am fine with IC romance! But my character has a partner, so other than with that particular person I am not interested in a lot of romance. I'm more interested in the adventuring aspect than romantic plot-lines. Views on non-romantic RP (family ties, etc): I think friendship would be a lot of fun! Going off on adventures together, experiencing the world. I think friendships, rivals and every other kind of complicated non-romantic relationship would be very fun. Family Ties might get a little complicated though without some serious planning ahead of time. Views on lore: I'd like to stick to the lore of the game as closely as possible. I think it helps build a more cohesive story if everyone is building off of the same world and it's mythology. Views on chat functions (/say, /linkshell, etc): Well, if everyone around you is involved in the RP, then I think /say should be used as IC while the private communication should be used as OOC. As far as the Linkshell, I guess it would depend on the rules of the individual linkshells. If the majority of the people there prefer to speak OOC or IC, then I will go with the flow. III. Other Info Country: USA Timezone: Eastern Standard Time Contact info: Post here, PM me on the forums or in-game.

I wanted to attempt drawing a Lalafell so I drew Shippuu... I REALLY HOPE YOU DONT MIND! I tried to draw him tough and cool but it ended up adorable. I'm sorry... so sorry....auugh... I don't know why he's carrying a raging ram. But the raging ram is the least raging creature I've ever seen.

I do a rough sketch first, but it's insanely rough, mostly for the sake of proportions/composition. Then I do the real drawing. I work digitally so it's easy to work with layers. (;° ロ°) Th...thank you! And I can't believe you recognized my stuff, thanks! My drawings are all done completely digitally. I've been drawing digitally for a LONG time (jeez uh... 11 years?) so it comes to me as easily as traditional pencil and paper. @EVERYONE Thanks!! I will try to keep posting more FFXVI art! I've been looking at all of your characters too....

A fair question! The game was released right after I graduated college so I was pretty busy trying to get my career going / moving to a new state / other things. So I didn't think I had the time to tackle a MMORPG. Then, it got such bad press that I didn't feel too terribly interested in picking it up and started to forget about it. Until I saw the Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn in my recommended list on amazon.com and I thought "Oh YEAH! I wonder how that game is doing?" and I began researching about the whole remake of the game and it got me all excited and eager.

Yes, that would be fun! (and a good way to get to know you.) Also, followed your tumblr right back.

Hello! I'm just starting FFXIV now too with the A realm reborn release, I missed 1.0 too, so I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who is just starting to learn!

Behold my attempts at organization! I draw, a lot. It is my job to draw. But I'll try to save this thread for FFXIV stuff specifically. Probably most of the artwork will be of my Miqo'te man, a marauder/warrior named Tim'a Fei... Who is slowly coming to life in my head. I'm sure I'll have a very clear picture of him in my mind when A Realm Reborn is finally released. But I will also try to draw many other characters too, my friend's characters, whoever I get to interact with here and in the game! I tend to draw as a method to get to know characters rather than just writing things out. I find it helps me. I post everything on my tumblr too: http://cassandrajp.tumblr.com/ - - - -- I'll Add new Pictures here! Tim'a Fei with the wrong skin color, it was my first doodle of him. I attempted to sketch Shippuu! A picture of Tima as child. Tim'a and Deirdre. Tima drinks. Portrait doodles. Study in Armor. Tim'a and Aysun. Tim'a and Gerik. Tim'a and P'axi. Tim'a and Rhio. Blacksmith! Tim'a. Armorer! Ronberku. Goldsmith! Alothia. Alchemist! P'axi. Culinarian! Sarah. Botanist! Gerik. Leatherworker! Manari. Miner! Shippuu. Weaver! Eva. Carpenter! Mtoto. Fisher! Caysen. Tim'a and P'axi break from adventuring. Fire Olive. Tim'a portrait sketch. Deirdre portrait. Tim'a and P'axi. Falling off of cliffs.

Wah! I'm a girl!! A girl named Cassandra indeed... *There can only be one? Highlander rules?* Though my character will be a boy named Tima Fei! (confusing? Maybe? Should I have used his name for my screen name?! woops)

Thank you! I have definitely poked around that section (and all the others) trying to familiarize myself with the place. Everyone seems so friendly it's helping me feel less shy. Thanks! Greatly appreciated~! I will definitely be drawing more of my miqo'te, and others too! This should be a blast, thank you for the warm welcome. It's nice to be here! I will post more about him at another time, and I'm interested to read more about what kinds of characters y'all have created too. Well it's good to be here! And you have such a nice picture of your character there... aah it's so nice to see the characters "in the flesh" so to speak! Everyone here IS very helpful and welcoming, it's way less intimidating than I originally thought. Thank you! Hey! There are all kind of talents and just because drawing isn't one of yours, doesn't mean you aren't talented in other great ways! I look forward to seeing your archer around the continent! Thank you! And I hope that he proves to be fun (if grumpy) to interact with. Thank you, it will be an absolute pleasure to see you guys around the game. I'm absolutely itching for this game's release! Everyone does seem incredibly friendly and helpful, it's a relief, since I was worried about that elitist mentality. (You know, the people who played since the beginning looking down on newcomers or something.) So this is wonderful! Thank you everyone!

Hello, My name is Cassandra Jean. I am not entirely new to RP, but I am new to it in this setting so this will be a big learning experience for me, (please and thank you for your patience!) I never know how to introduce myself so here it goes. --MMORPG background I have previously played FFXI (and tootled around in Ragnarok Online back in the day). But I have not yet played FFXIV! So A Realm Reborn will be my first experience with the game. Which I knew makes me a serious newbie, but I'm very excited about it and I am doing my best to research everything I've missed out on by not playing FFXIV 1.0 ... so.. again, I'm sorry and thank you for your patience as I learn! --RP experience As I mentioned above I am not new to RP, but up until now I have done predominantly 1-on-1 RPing, and this will be my first time actually attempting it in a video game setting online with so many other RP-ers around, so I'm both excited and nervous! --Character ideas/info He is still a work in progress, but the character I plan to create in FFXIV:ARR is a male Miqo'te. A warrior. I have drawn him several times to help me work out his personality. But he is certainly a moody bugger, since he keeps coming out on paper with an attitude problem. --What king of a role-player are you aiming to be? Like I said, I'm new to this type of RP, so I don't know yet! Light to Medium? --Anything from real life you are comfortable with sharing? I am an illustrator. I take both freelance work and also illustrate comics for Yen Press. http://cassandrajp.tumblr.com/ Again, my apologies for any ignorance on my part, but I am working hard to learn what I can before the ARR release!
