Thank you! I'll be sure to look you up! Already I've had a couple people contact me in game. I kind of wish I didn't have to go to work today so that I could just dive right into everything! Spent a couple hours yesterday just looking through the newbie gear on the market place to find something suitable for Ki'la.

Thank you so much for this, makes me feel a little better about my character idea! It's going to help a lot. Also, I have officially transferred! Captain Ki'la is the name, if you want to say hi in game. ^^

Oh my gosh! I nearly forgot about Knights of Menethil! I used to be a scrub in their guild, but oh man that was one of the first great RP guilds I had ever been in. And I think Whitefire Knights, they too were a good imprint on my new status of a RPer way back in the day. Such memories *-*

Thank you by the way! I meant to respond to that my last post, but posting on forums at work can make you a bit distracted T.T Forgive me! And Aegis seems vaguely familiar. It's been such a long time. Let's see... My mains back then. Evialyn - Rogue, became leader of the House of Grey. Calenne - Paladin - Co-Ran the Lordaeron Knights after League of Lordaeron disbanded way back in the day. I had a DK named Yukka, but hardly played her at all. That's an idea, once I transfer over to the server, mind if I PM you and brain storm? I really don't want to break lore, and I only dare bend lore when I understand it. So I want to make sure I don't become someone cringe worthy. ...Maybe I'm worrying too much about it? (I have bad experiences with the edgelord sons of Arthas with blood eyes and demon wings *shiver*) That will be so helpful. ^^ So you're a newbie too! Good, I don't feel totally alone. This is actually the first MMO (since WoW) That I've gone to, that I don't have any previous friends actively playing. It's a complete fresh start for me.

Yeah. I figured out that part when I got the quest text "You may now join other guilds, but ....can you master this one first? Pretty please?!" Only I'm the kind of person who spent hours in the WoW Character select.... Can you imagine how long it took me for something as complex as Black Deserts? - Back to the point, when I create a character I think up of a quick personality and small backstory and get that bubbly feeling that you tend to get when you think "Oh my gosh, this is going to be so great!" (Though in the end it's bad and you realize you've made a terri-bad OC and need to hide your face in shame for a few days -.-) But, for the Miqo'te I made.... I don't even know if it'd fit the lore, I wouldn't dare RP it until I knew more but I envisioned her as some high-energy tribal woman from the north. (Again, I don't even know if this is a thing or some snowy mountainy land that I can substiute for it) who can be very dangerous (Queue Barbarian Rage from DnD) , but most of the time is gentle and oblivious. (In artist terms, this is my "rough sketch" of the character I'd like to play) So playing her as a healer would almost break that immersion for me.

I was on Moonguard, indeed. Was on it way before the goldshire epidemic came around. Still makes me mad after all this time... *Seethe* At first when I launched the game from the trail version I was like: "OMG what is with this global cooldown?!" Couldn't figure out the map/quest system... rage quitted until the next day, and then the next day I gave it another try and fell in love. Never had that happen before actually As I've been playing I'm liking the story more and more. And the side quests are entertaining! The one that's really gotten me so far is the quest to unlock the hair stylist. I couldn't stop laughing! I haven't given much thought about my main yet. I made two characters that I'm in love with so far. The first is a Conjurer, simply because I am first and formost a healer OOC in any game I play, and she's a lot of fun to play. ...But then I made the Cat person Monjet Kaj'et Neko Miqo'te as a lancer, and she's adorable too! So I can't decide which I like more. I like healing, but ...kitty... Meow. >.< I heard this game wasn't too friendly with alts? You can't mail to yourself, and also you get cross class abilitys if you level up multiple classes on one?

Hello everyone! I've been lurking around the website for a few weeks now and decided it was finally time to say hi! I am very, very new to the game. (Seriously, my character is only level 20). I played 2 days of the trial and said "Yep, gonna buy the game." I discovered that Balmung was the place to go for RP, unfortunately it seems that it's also one of the most popular servers and that the early morning windows for character creation is no longer a thing. So, I decided that I'll bite the bullet and get that $18 transfer. I also found out I can transfer up to 8 characters from the same server, so I made a whole bunch of alts I may or not play, and just waiting for them to grow up (72 hours I believe?) so that I can transfer them over and get the most for my money. I am a FF fan through and through. I grew up watching my mother spend hours running around in circles in FFVII overleveling for the next boss fight. The very first game that I finished all the way through was FFX where Yuna became my role model growing up. And I never outgrew the Final Fantasy Franchise. Even enjoyed XIII the first time around. (Wouldn't play it again though) But for some reason, when FFXI came out I stayed clear of it like the plague. Maybe it was because I had just started my MMO career with WoW at the time, but I never touched it. When I heard of FFXIV release, I did that thing that some people do where I didn't do my research and assumed it would be a bad game. I'm sorry! Don't eat me Now, like I said, I'm super new to the game. I don't know much about the lore (Though I'm slowly studying up on it through these fourms and the like), but I'm not new to MMO's, I've played Several, WoW being the first, followed by SWTOR, GW2 Archage, Blackdesert, and others I've probably forgotten about. In every single one of them, I have been in an RP community. I'd say that, if you're not counting childhood make believe, I've been RPing for 7-8 years now Online. I've ran a few successful RP guilds, and have so many fond memories of the past. The thing now though, is I have not found a game since WotLK WoW that has... been consistent? I'm not sure if that's the right way to phrase it. With not only the game play, lore and etc. But with the community. Researching FFXIV and left and right I see that the community is very tight knit, friendly and active for Balmung. I see that there's even a mutual agreement between RPers and Non-RPers that allow both communities to get along. Which is such a new concept because I've come from servers from other games where, if you RPed, you couldn't touch end game content, or those end game players would make fun of RPers and just give us a bad name all around. Now I know there's a few exceptions to the rule, but that's what I've seen in my experience. But reading the online forums, these forums. (I know, crazy stalker lady, right?) It could be that, because it's almost mandatory to transfer into this server, there's less of that around. Then again, I could be pulling out all of this from thin air and actually getting into the server would be a different story.... But I'd like to believe it's so! So, big post, I know, I'm sorry. If you read it that's awesome! I'm actually quite shy, and ramble when I'm anxious. Like I said earlier, I'll be transferring over any day now. And I'm really excited to become a part of this community!
