Hello, I'm very new here. This is probably the first time I ever post in forum since....ever. I stalked forums but I never joined in or create a welcome thread.
Warning: Being an emotional writer, I'm just pouring my emotions right now XD. So please skip this part all the way to the empty spaces.
I...could not express how much joy I have to finally create a character on the Balmung Server. I have heard for days that this is the RP server and I just wanted so badly to be part of the world. I don't know what to say about myself except that I'm just new...at everything actually.
I have at best minimal RP experience with my online friend for the past five years only by the use of instant messages. My friend's a crazed fan of MMPORG but she would never play or start any games unless I play with her. I played a free online MMPORG game with her once. While it went well for her, it does not end well for me. Being an introvert, I found myself at the bad sides of impatient players. Soon enough, my friend quit playing that game because I was not there. I cherished her loyalty and friendship to no end.
I'm a huge fan of RPG games. She convinced me to play FFXIV with her and I did. I had created a character on the server with her a month ago. It was fun at first but it was not just for me. We joined an EU server solely because her friends were there. They were nice people and have their own small Free Company but I still felt like I do not belong there. The people of FC were her friends, not mine. I could talk to my friend but with others, I felt like an outcast. That's when I was longing for that wonderful feeling of RP.
For the past week, I did light research...well...very light...I haven't read the Lore yet. I just simply type in FFXIV RP and eventually I came to this forum. I basically stalked around, not having any clue of what I should be looking at. So I figured I'll create a character first. And so I have been waiting like a vulture for the RP server to finally open. When I saw a maintenance news, I just had a thought...just maybe right after 2 AM, it'll finally open. And so, I stayed up late even though I should have slept early for my morning Uni classes. I just couldn't miss this chance. Exactly at 2 AM, I just click Data Center and just goes from there. I simply selected Balmung and proceed to character creation. I couldn't believe my eyes as I spent almost a hour trying to create an ideal RP character. Am I really in the Balmung server? As soon I talked to the Guildmaster, I was immediately bombarded by people RPing right in the Adventurer's Hall. I still couldn't believe my eyes. I just had to log out and see for sure that I'm really in Balmung server. Tears just came to my eyes (Yes, I'm a softie XD) and I'm just beyond thrilled that I can at last being my RP life.
Um wow, that was long. Well putting that out of the way, I literally have no experience on MMORPG RP. I do have experience RPing over instant messages with my friend and that's just it. I'm hoping that if there are anyone here willing to guide me. You can treat my character with amnesia if you must. I'm willing to be the servant or puppy if that's your kink ;D.
While I have not read the lore and not sure what to do from here (heck I don't even know to use forums or wiki. Heck I don't even have FB account XD). I'm positive that my character will be sensitive, soft-hearted, and eager to learn anything. I'll probably be an eager virgin if I have to get into that territory.
That being said, it's 4 am in the morning when I posted this XD. I gotta get to sleep for my lecture in four hours. I just wanna express my joy right away after character creation and hope for guidance from anyone here.
