Thanks for all the response. I hate having a cluttered character list but in the spirit of being economical I went ahead and mate the max 8 in justification that I can delete the excess later if it REALLY bothers me. I do already have a character in mind that I just adore how she turned out in the creation screen. I tend not to play anti-social characters often because they can be a bit tedious for me and the idea I have in mind is something on the opposite end. Rolled Archer for class and plan to go Bard of course, because Bards are awesome.

Hello there. Very very new to the game and not even out of trial yet. I'm a fan of epic fantasy and love reading the big world shaking tales of a small cadre of heroes against a larger than life foe, even more so when there's a little humor mixed in. I've been role playing in MMOs for years and tend to focus on character development, often posting stories alongside my normal roleplay. Lately I've gotten into a little storytelling but I'm sad to say most of what I come up with is small personal tales that don't extend beyond five people at most, nothing far reaching. In the past I've avoided the game because I have never played Final Fantasy and the lore felt overwhelming but I heard the role play and the community are both amazing and decided to give it a shot. So far I am loving the gameplay so I am not disappointed, I plan to sign up and try to pop my character over to Balmung where all my friends are. I'll be playing a Hyur Bard but made a few alts for kicks before I discovered naming conventions. Anyway a few questions: How open is everyone to a new player in the group? How easy is it to transfer to Balmung? Does everyone get really strict on naming conventions? How far can I get being lore handicapped?
