roleplaying [Mateus] Hello! New player seeking friends!
CalmFishy posted a topic in Making Connections
(Hello there! I'm well.. VERY NEW around here. I'm super familiar with MMO's and Roleplaying, but as far as Final Fantasy goes I'm pretty darn fresh. I tried the game a long time ago and couldn't really get into it. But I'm back and found the RP community which I was sniffing around for! I joined Mateus today, and I'm hoping to find some folks who wouldn't mind taking me under the wing for a bit while I get my bearings. I'm mostly seeking contacts, RP buddies, and even a 'Guild' in an attempt to have some fun during my free time! Feel free to slip on into my DM's or reply here. I've been roleplaying for far tooooooo many years, and I simply love it! I have a basic character concept for my character Tehbo Lheiyu. Questions? Comments? Concerns? Have an awesome day -CalmFishy -

He was forced to grow up quickly, and began working at a young age. As he matured, he began to notice that working the bazaars and gathering was not the life he wanted. He wanted to be free. Corvus shortly thereafter began his path to become a Sky Pirate. After many years of effort and hard work, it all finally paid off. He set off at once to purchase his first airship and shortly after doing so, he took to the skies and never looked back. Corvus has lived a free life since that day. Every day is a new adventure for him. Everyone he meets is a new face, a new friend or new enemy, and every job pays better than the last. He is ever looking forward, the wind carrying him ever onward. Despite living his dream, he often finds himself wanting more and more, and doing whatever it takes to gain what he wants. Corvus's only true friend is his companion Hawk, Raz. He is never seen without the hawk. If Raz is not perched on Corvus's shoulder, he is flying high above, ever watching and protecting Corvus. Plot Hooks A Man On A Mission (FC Related Story) A strange Cult has been reported in Thanalan. Corvus has made it a point to track them down and learn what they are up to... A Lone Sky Pirates Life For...Us? (Personal & Romance Story) Corvus is a Sky Pirate. This life has taken him all over the continent and let him meet many people. Many of those people have either become acquaintances or enemies of his due to the path he walks. This life has made him very closed to those around him and he rarely opens up. Though he may act cold and distant to those he spends his days with, deep down he does care and will do whatever it takes to protect those around him. This always on the go life has left Corvus little time for relationships, leading him to shamelessly flirt with any and all of the opposite sex. Despite how he acts, his adventures have left him cold and alone. He is slowly find that he may want more than just friends, but years of living for himself has left a thick shell around his heart. As he looks out over the bow of his airship, he wonders if anyone can crack it. ♪Another Rabanastre Night♪ (Long Term RP Story) Corvus travels and privateers as an attempt to forget his past. The past where he took to the skies instead of facing the Garlean forces that bombed and destroyed his home, Rabanastre. After many years, he finally began to go back to the city and see what was left of his old home. He began to go back to "salvage", but when he returns he often has naught to show for his endeavors. Why is he really going back to his home? What is left there for him? Misc: Also looking for people to do content with. Not just RP. Both would be awesome! Mainly Looking For: Long Term plot driven RP and RP relationship building (Platonic and/or Romantic), as well as someone to do Content with due to my weird work hours. -
Hello everyone, I have been playing FF14 since ARR launch and is still playing! I have been on RPC for sometimes, even I hardly post or check, but I was wondering if there are any topic/forums I could find here to post "looking for RP" and post my character's detail and so on. If there is one, can you point it out for me. I already post Looking for RP on Tumblr and couple of RP discord server, but sadly, I am not having much luck to find people outside of FC and to make new friends/RP partners. I am trying to push myself out of comfort zone and not RP with only FC and I don't have many friends inside and outside of FC. Since I didn't get much of luck with Tumblr or Discord, I thought I might try here and hopefully to meet some people on Balmung. I apologise for my English as it is not my first language, but second as I am deaf IRL and Sign language is my first. Many thanks. -
Updated: 10/24/2018 | Previously Renamed from: The Eight Tenants of Not Being a Shithead This is our general rulebook for roleplaying that we apply to both In Game and Discord RP. These rules can be adjusted as we progress through RP and we do take suggestions on further rules that can be added or taken out. Any form of GMing is expressedly against regulation. This includes: 1. Retconing - editing a person, place, or thing related to yourself or another player character during an RP session or post publication, all things planning by all members of a thread. These changes have to be discussed and carried out before hand. For example, someone making another player character lose an item or gain an item as a story piece from the Meta directly, is a form of Godmoding. In order to write this correctly, it needs to be dealt with beforehand. 2. Mary Sues/ Gary Stus - A player character who is immeasurably good at seemingly everything. Oftentimes a symptom of a writer being attached to their character, it is easy to fall into this trap. If your character is loved by seemingly the whole planet, has an invincible set of powers, or has plot armor like Jon Snow of Game of Thrones, then unfortunately, this pertains to you, comrade. In order to fix this, having one clear weakness for every strength makes abilities both balanced and more interesting, because it requires more creativity in writing to maximize your move-sets.(edited) 3. RP Etiquette - Making a combat action or an attempt of ill will against a Player Character happen, without a legitimate attempt from the player to counter it. This is a common beginner's mistake, but also very easy to correct. For example, if you want to slam a player character into a table, you must frame it as such. "Jaster swept his feet behind his opponent and drew them back rapidly in an attempt to sweep his feet from under him, while simultaneously reaching for his neck with his right arm, that way he could slam his opponent head first through the table." This way, your opponent has an equal chance not only to counter validly, but to counter attack. The incorrect way of stating a battle action is "Jaster picked up his opponent by his neck after sweeping his feet out from under him, then sent his head through the table behind him." Keep in mind it is also GMing for your character never to take a hit, because while magic is possible in Final Fantasy, being completely avoidable is still GMing. 4. Metagaming - Your character knowing information that he/she shouldn't just because you do. For example, if Curly and Selene have a conversation in Southern Thanalan, yet Jaster is in the Monastery and exhibits firsthand testimony of the conversation, that is Metagaming and is not allowed. Even though we have teleporting capabilities, literally being in two places at once is impossible, especially if you didn't even write anything. Adding on to this, if your player character teleports/shows up to an area where two other characters are because in the Meta, you knew about it, that is also GMing. There has to be a valid reason of knowing AND consent from the players for your player character to be there. 5. FF14 Canon Nobility - If your character backstory is one of royalty, it is imperative that your character is not an actual sitting member of Royalty in the capacity of King, Queen, Prince, or Princess in a faction of FF14 canon. Simply put, if Square Enix wanted to add these characters in any capacity into the game, it would require an insane amount of Retconning to fix it. Instead, your character can be of Noble rank, like a Thane or something of the like. Positions like these are still lofty, take prestige and time in order to acquire, and have benefits. More importantly however, is that there can be any number of these positions, so the addition of one of the same rank as your character in the story will not require major changes to your character or possibly the story itself. If your character's backstory is of Noble Descent, it has to be separate from the capacity of your character. All useable prestigious ranks have to be earned through time and effort, not only to add weight to the Ranks themselves, but to keep them from meaning nothing at all because everyone and their cousin is the King of a different molehill. 6. Jobs - If your character is in a battle, you may use no more than one battle class per engagement. It is not possible to multiclass in the game's combat, so it is also not possible here. Instead, your character can have one main class that he/she is using in a combat engagement, and two supporting classes for using combat techniques (not skills or spells, but instead using your Warrior Training to help your learn how to handle a Greatsword). For Example, Jaster is a Red Mage, with proficiency in both the White Mage and Summoner Jobs. In doing it this way, your character has a set skillset with its own strengths and weaknesses, while still giving plenty of customization options. At the beginning of the engagement, each Player Character will pick a Battle Job from the 3 Active Jobs your character has selected, the other two will support the main one in artistic expression. This only pertains to combat classes, if you are a gatherer or a crafter, go crazy. 7. Lore Deviation – While we do allow for character's to be of different origins than the world of Hydylean, actually using abilities and powers from those universes is a can of worms of a game balancer's nightmares. Instead, if you want to use the powers inherited with a background deviated from canon FF14 lore, you have to travel to the Interdimensional Rift located in the Discord text channels. While it is perfectly fine for your character to hold on to his/her believes of a distant land, it will be treated as your character is fundamentally cut off from their source of that power, and instead can only channel the powers inherent in FF14. 8. Realistic/Balanced Exhaustion – While it is fun to have a two week long battle between rival characters, it is not physically possible to do so. You have to be self conscious of your character's power levels, endurance, and be realistic about it as well. If your character is a Paladin, it is not realistic that he has a higher attack power than a DPS of a comparable level. Also, if the combat engagement has went on for a long amount of time, your character should not be able to still pull off multiple Fire IVs without having to take time to recuperate Mana Points. This also goes for Technique Point based attacks as well. Specific spells and techniques will have cooldowns based on a turn by turn basis in the Player's Handbook when it comes out.

Okay so the gist of it is that I live in the worst time zone possible coming from Western Australia (GMT +8) and was looking at gaining some advice on the best RP server for my timezone. I already tried the japanese severs like Tonberry and such but really didn't enjoy my time there due to the lack of rp community and the focus mainly being on raids and level grinding. I have very recently moved to Omega and was wondering if I made the right choice or if one of the other RP severs would be a better choice? Overall my connection to all the data centres appears to be of high connectivity so I'm not fussed which data centre I am in. So if anyone could clear up my confusion and doubt, I will be forever grateful! Thank you!
