Low-Z

Ahh... competition...... *cracks his knuckles*

You might have seen Low in or around Ul'dah starting a few months after the calamity and more recently pushing his business to Limsa Lominsa as well. Sometimes in the shadows of back alleys or at the doorsteps of the wealthy elite. Gil is gil and Low doesn't discriminate between customers and their social status as long as they're able to compensate him for his resourcefulness and risk-taking, providing whatever substance brings an all-too-temporary end to their craving of choice. He also frequents places that display scantily clad women like those dancers in Ul'dah or any sort of seedy bar or club type establishment like that and can sometimes be seen chatting up the girls, or possibly subtly engaging in business transactions with them.

I saw my name mentioned earlier and this makes me happy.. I own a small business and this is the busy time of year for me so I cant always be around here as much as others but Im' still gonna be playing. I missed the last part of the last stage of beta but hope to be around more for the next one. Low-Z also runs his own small business, much shadier and I'm sure he would love to expand his network of business contacts. He doesnt think of it as being illegal though. He provides a service where there is a demand for that sort of thing. If he didn't, someone else would, after all. So if there's room in this at all for a somnus dealer and a few other potent substances of questionable legality than i'm interested and Low is very interested!

I'm no artist but if anyone ever wants to draw him peddling his wares or just looking badass or whatever I think that would be cool. He's a Keeper of the Moon. looks a little wiry. a shady fellow. Here's the only really good screenshot I have. What you see is what you get.

Good arts Xenedra! :bomb::bomb::bomb::bomb:

Glad to hear it. I'll be looking forward to our future business interactions. 8-)

I love that I see myself in some of these screenshots. Because I'm an arrogant bastard like that! But it was a lot of fun, and I should add Endemerrin (Merri) to the group of folks that made it worthwhile. Though not a lot of people really acknowledged me, he was one - and Xenedra, and a couple others. It's hard joining a group that's kind of already established itself awhile back, but I did feel very welcome. So thanks everyone for that. I think I'm just gonna walk up to random RPers next time and be like, "Sup?"

It sounds sheepish and stupid, but I wouldn't mind working with a mentor. I'm basically looking to be a drug-dealing miqo'te guy that's charismatic but kind of no-nonsense. I don't know if this appeals to any of the mentors in particular or not, and I've RPed before, so most of what I really need to know is related to the lore - what kinds of 'drugs' are available, and how I best can skirt around "the law" and such. If this sounds like your thing, I guess let me know or PM me. I'm open to thoughts n stuff.

Here's a good picture of Low-Z You know you want him! 8-)

I had fun at this event! Thank you in particular to Mali, Xenedra, and Kari for taking the time to talk to a complete stranger and make me feel a little bit more welcome.

Thanks for the welcomes n stuff. I'm glad there seems to be room for this sort of a thing. In the past people kinda gotten upset at stuff like dealing illegals and prostitution. I figure there is a lot of great stuff in the game lore to work with, like Somnus, and I'm sure there's other stuff besides. I figure Low-Z will be the kind of guy that can get you some stuff that might otherwise be hard-to-get. I don't figure on him being a kingpin or anything like that, but I've been thinking maybe there will be a lalafell or someone that he works for. And just to be clear he's not a bad dude. He just does what he does to make money and because there's a demand for it. Been thinking about some catch-phrases and things, and my favorite so far is "Low-Z can get you high." If any one that's been around for awhile knows more about the lore behind somnus or any other substances that are used or abused in eorzea let me know. I've only seen some of it so far in the cutscenes and I don't know if it's cool or not to "make up" anything that might not be in the lore exactly. Also got my avatar up there but not gonna do a signature cuz I think they're annoying. I have been thinking about Low-Z's younger years and I'll try to figure out how to make a wiki sometime soon. Maybe I'll see some of you all at this event, if I can find it!

Sup. 8-) I kind of gave the game a try back in 1.0 beta and decided back then it wasn't for me. I had an account here but I guess it got wiped out - thanks for that. Kidding. lol So I made another account. I'll just use the template thats here for the rest. --MMORPG background I played some WoW, FFXI, and a little Tera and GW2. Nothing really stuck so far but some friends of mine were raving about this and I remembered this RP community. I usually play ninja/thief/rogue/givemesomedaggersandgetoutofmyway! --RP experience Middle of the road? Not sure how to rate myself here. I've had some experience with RP in some of the other games mentioned above. I usually play seedy characters who are into dirty dealings n stuff. I can't do the goodie-two-shoes thing without it feeling really stupid. But I heard from some people on other games taht I do allr ight and RP a convincing jerkwad. So I guess thats a good thing. Maybe someone can tell me how my experience is when we all get to roughhousing in the sandbox. --Character ideas/info I have a good idea what I'll be RPin already. Low-Z will be a miqote dude that sells "questionable product" to people. Eorzeas equivalent of a drug dealer. Hope this is ok. Not sure if theres room for somethin like that in this group. I thought it'd be good though. I kinda been lurking for awhile and saw that a lot of ya are on Gilgamesh it seems so I made up a char there. I'm familiar with the lore and stuff. So "somnus dealer" and kind of skirting beneath the law. The char's actual name is Lho'zi Mbehlo - keeper of the moon - but his clients and such will call him "Low-Z". He's friendly - gotta be friendly when dealin with the customer. But hes rough and has a mean streak. --How did you learn about the coalition? I was here a long time ago. Don't even remember what my name was back then. Some other char that didn't pan out. I been hearing a lot of great stuff about this game and lookin forward to RPin with some of ya! --What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? Light, medium, or heavy? Probably medium-heavy. I like to stay in char but I know you can't always get stuff done that way for the game - leveling up and "the grind" and all that other stuff. --Anything from real life you're comfortable with sharing? (Work, school, hobbies, etc) I'm 26. I own a successful small business and go from having a lot of free time to not having much at all depending on what time of year and other stuff. I live in a rural town in Indiana that nobodys ever heard of so its not worth mentioning. I like heavy metal. And my char is gonna be awesome. You'll see. Trust me. You will. :dodgy: Also I see everyones got avatars and signatures and all that fun stuff. I'll fix mine up later. I got some screenshots and enough know how to crop an avatar. I read a few of the wikis and maybe I'll try to wrap my head around how to make one of those pages up for this guy. Haven't thought too much about linkshells and all that stuff yet. Might not even need one right off if open world RP happens here. Or maybe I'll fit into YOURS. YES YOU!! Kidding. Maybe. Depends on the guild. :evil: That's all I got for now
