Hey all. Seems I'm the only Gilgameshian posting here, so I thought I'd share.
1. Seven months ago, an open-world performance RP event called "The Minstrel's Ballad" compelled me to give RP in an MMO a try for the first time in my life. Within a couple of months, I wrote and performed my first poem at said event. In the five months that followed, I have written and performed poems, stories, songs, and dances nearly weekly at said event with three different characters. As of three weeks ago, I have taken over hosting said event, and now am transforming one of those nights per month into a huge faire/carnival complete with vendors, street performers, mini-games, and the main attraction, the event which began it all.
2. Also, seven months ago, I was a new member in my FC, The Adamantium Order, still learning how to use custom /emotes. Today, I have the honor and privilege of being second in charge of the FC, and I host/GM weekly events for our members. In our campaigns, I have taken our 6-8 person group in-character to the Shroud, Thanalan, Binding Coil, and other dungeons.
3. I have initiated "Explorzea Day" for our FC, and have invited the entire RPC to join us. This is the day we lock the FC house for "monthly maintenance" and push everyone out into the world for open RP. My intent is to sell this as a monthly observational day, of sorts.
4. I am selling Wolves' Den Pier to the RPC as an alternative RP hub, cultivating its image to resemble Mos Eisley (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Mos_Eisley) or a sort of Promenade like on Deep Space 9 (http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Promenade). To this end, I'm hosting events there and calling for more to draw attention to its many RP-facilitating features, such as the close aetheryte, pier for epic scenes, beautiful view for romantic interactions, shopkeepers with full stalls, delivery moogle for penpal RP, GC-neutral zone since all colors are hung on walls, open-air tables on the upper deck for tavern/performance events, shady areas on the inner decks for shady interactions, and more.
