Welcome to the RPC! My husband has been getting me into D&D, it still feels awkward doing it over a table rather than text with dice rolls, but I will get the hang of it I am sure! Look forward to seeing you in game!

Bright colors is a real new thing I'm doing with Rhynka, so I'm glad it's working out! Having sticky fingers like hers colors cleavage and the works is a nice distraction to mislead while digging through a coin purse!! lol Thank you very much for the kind compliment!
-
Thanks! Incredible is a bit big to say some things could have turned out better I think, but it's nice you think so!!
-
Yanno! The dancing daggers is not only a high risk game to be gambled on, but it can be used to resolve disputes as well Not sure if this helps!! And with the Rhynka alt I will be playing on Gilgamesh, I hope Amaare's wandering eyes don't get him robbed blind!!! Sticky fingered lady ftw!
-
Thank you! I was going for some kinda moth to a flame type of allure. She's a fiery lady and very attuned to the fire element so of course she's too hot to handle! I put sweat beads on her using a different layer but I didn't like how that looked so took it out.

Thank you for the wonderful compliments! @ U'zhan: It's because she can see through U'zhan, and it gives her lotsa ammo to pick on him about! @Yaein: I made her a bit chubbier than the normal miqo'te, a caster/hybrid build as opposed to purely athletic like my alt Diakhan, I intend to do a drawing of Diakhan in the near future.

I actually do better with paper, pen, brushes and some ink wells. With the lack of space where I currently live it provokes too much of a mess to do so... tablet ftw!

Since I've been bit by the creative bug three times in the last month now I decided to make static thread to post any future works. Not sure what you label unsafe for work, but nothing will be nude here so if scant clothing is NSFW just view at your own risk. My latest is a drawing of Rhynka in all her chastised glory, daggers ready to 'dance', with a coin to decide who goes first-Enjoy!

All told, I wasn't involved in that debacle at all, but I read the whole thing. You yourself don't appear to me to be the one who got inflammatory. I don't know if you should be apologizing for both you and Rhynka, especially if you're not sure what was said that made things in that last thread go so pear-shaped. I guess us sitting right down next to each other to word the part of the post you just quoted wasn't enough? We're not just an IC couple, we are married IRL and we saw no reason to copy and paste the same statement into two different posts by two different users on the forums. Sorry if you missed that somewhere or not, but just about everything we do online (And off) we do as a team seeing as we represent not just ourselves but us as husband and wife as well. And if you weren't part of it or insulted, I don't understand why you're giving your input at all except to try provoking something we're trying to let die. If someone went at someone you loved IRL and called them "Boring" would you go back at them too or just let it happen? It still doesn't justify my behavior at all and I am sorry for insulting you, it was a knee jerk reaction in response to your remark toward Razamir. I'm pretty sure you are speaking toward me. While I promised my husband, Razamir I wouldn't post on these threads again unless it is to submit a creative work of my own to the IC sections of the RPC forums... He's at work and can't stop me. My husband often takes the reigns in many situations IRL or online to advocate on my part as well as his if needed because of my condition. I doubt any of this is important to state since it seems you will pick back at it just as you have the earnest apology we've both made. (When it was made toward Callipygian, and Kyatai because those were the two directly insulted, not you Zyrusticae.) I guess I'll apologize for disturbing whatever I did with you, but please don't expect a response, I am done making my husband look bad, mmk? That said, thank you very much to those who did accept our apology. If Razamir were next to me right now I'm sure he would want to say the same! As promised, I'm not posting any further opinions on these forums again, and I ask others not bring me up to my husband in such a tone again. It's human nature he'd want to defend me, so I cut in before he could. Happy RPs for all... Peace!

This would totally be Diakhan's song. 1ckuXx64abc

She was having a hard time explaining what she meant, her second post may clear things up some. http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=3044&pid=37410#pid37410

Desphiria mentioned to me the other night that her character doesn't see well, mostly outlines and shapes. I suggested making a keeper with seeker skin and hair color themes because the Keeper's eyes have a very transparent pupil it could make her model look blind as she wants to imply. It's an aesthetic difference and considering a seeker's eyes shouldn't look that way it could suggest blindness.

Miqo’te Mating Strategies Explored: a biologist’s point of view
Rhynka replied to Myxie Tryxle's topic in Lore Discussion
It does seem though that both me and my husband have been making others feel insulted while trying to prove an initial point. The point wasn't the realism, lore, or trying to say miqo'te are all sluts! I plan to play a tribal miqo'te trying to adapt to city life. I've had to take a lot more into account than just how they make babies. I've seen other miqo'te culture threads turn into miqo'te breeding threads cause it's the most fascinating to the majority I guess. Mostly it occurs in skype chat with these discussions. It seems to be the main focus of their culture. It also has been mapped clear enough by SE, there's little need for that kind of detail unless that is the main focus of what you want to play. Not saying it's good or bad, just saying it looks bad and perpetuates that bad stigma on anthro style RP and the people who play them. The point we've wanted to make here is that it feels as if all this community cares about is breeding. You bring up anything else given by SE and backed with RL facts just like she did and it's shot down as boring, moddish, and well now "Unreasonable". Here are some things I've had to consider when making Rhynka and trying to tune the story of her origins. -The miqo'te have a language all their own unable to be spoken by anyone outside of their race. Hence she speaks with an accent. -When the miqo'te came to Eorzea they found Eorzea had 26 letters in their alphabet coinciding with the 26 tribes. They felt it was destiny to be part of Eorzea then. -Rhynka wasn't born in her clan, she was brought there by a mother that died shortly after. She had no bloodline connection so yes, it made her quite coveted to remain to prevent inbreeding. -Interesting tidbit about Razamir's past is that his mother did beg for his life when the new nunh took over because he had off colored eyes which is a sign of greatness in an individual to the seekers. A superstitious seeker mom would be proud and see him as a hero to be of sorts if you catch my drift. -Razamir had to challenge the current nunh because he wanted to take Rhynka when he left and her being new blood to the tribe wasn't going to fly at all with the current nunh. He almost died in this encounter. -Rhynka and Razamir are by no means monogamous, but sex and love are two seperate things. They love each other but that means nothing when it comes sex with others. She does save her womb to bear his children only, which is strictly a cultural choice. Have I taken into consideration the so called 'breeding strategies'? Yes, I have very much so, but it was easy enough to do with elementary level education on lions, and the stuff SE posted about the miqo'te as well as bits found in NPC texts during 1.0. I don't feel the need to sit and focus hard on this one aspect as it wasn't that complicated. Things that are such as the result of selective reproduction I have had to think more on and my results will most likely be shot down in favor of more 'popular' lore I suppose. The only point we've tried to make here is people are glorifying and making important something that's only a small aspect of miqo'te culture, and when other ideas are brought forth they're shot down cause they're not as appealing. The responses we've gotten are proof enough, so carry on an pick apart what I've said I won't be posting in this thread again. -
Miqo’te Mating Strategies Explored: a biologist’s point of view
Rhynka replied to Myxie Tryxle's topic in Lore Discussion
It isn't unreasonable, considering the info you gave about lion prides I knew when I was still in elementary school I have to question if you're really a biologist. "the fact that bloodhounds are the result of 1000 years of artificial selection by humans" Okay, so you're saying the miqo'te are too damn dumb to do that with their own bloodlines? Are you saying they're just mindless cats who wouldn't selectively pick the fastest, strongest, most capable, and adaptive traits to pass on considering how they keep track of their bloodlines? so then, given humans aren't mindless monkeys, why aren't we all Mesomorphs when that is the strongest, most capable and adaptive trait to have? surely we, as a species with a high intelect, would pick that trait to breed into ourselves? I don't know where that bullshit statement came from, but humans don't do what she is suggesting the miqo'te do. I doubt they do this with as rigorous planning as the OP suggests. I'm also sure if government agencies and other forms of authority had their way, yes they would love to attempt breeding the best out of the best with humanity. But guess what, ALL of us don't pick who we bump uglies with according to what you stated. In fact what a human being desires in a life lover is so different and varying from person to person, NO we wouldn't see that happening unless you robbed all of their free ability to choose. She is suggesting the miqo'te are on the level of wild cats, lions to be exact. Well she used house cats for the scent argument (Funny how the provisions change to snuff out boring concepts!) But combine the lion pride set up and this "Cultural" difference about 'breeding' and mix it with human intelligence that the miqo'te do have. I'm sure a city miqo'te may have no such distinct traits and may not be as up to snuff as a tribal one (Due to bloodlines-yes!) but to say it's unreasonable is a flimsy argument that the OP nullifies herself with the entire purpose of her thread. BREED FOR THE BEST! -

Are you saying they're just mindless cats who wouldn't selectively pick the fastest, strongest, most capable, and adaptive traits to pass on considering how they keep track of their bloodlines? Also when breeding hounds, honey it doesn't take long before you notice physical differences if you know what you're doing. Here's a small example. In fact it's just 5 generations down picking the most docile in a liter of foxes before you don't just see their temperament change in the line but you also begin to see physical changes, such as tails curling and floppy ears as well as awkward colors not even native to the species. Yeah, this is with foxes, not hounds, but I think I got my point across that with sentient help it's not unreasonable. I'm pretty sure the miqo'te could figure it out if it's a desirable trait they want to keep in their descendents. So saying it's unreasonable also negates your entire statement about selective breeding. I think it's not that it's unreasonable, but it's just not interesting and boring as one of the individuals mentioned in here. Oh and as an after thought, don't compare to measly house cats, compare to a lion or tiger that has to live off it's sense of smell to hunt, or even FIND other females in the wild.
