hi there, I'm Tabris! I'm new to the forums, well... that's not entirely true. I've been lurking on here for weeks, trying to get a feel for the community. aaaaand reading lore and headcanons + theories, of course.Â
--MMORPG background
I've played MMOs for a while now! started with Runescape in... 2003 or 2004, and I've been bouncing from game to game since then. the only MMO I can say that I've substantially played besides FFXIV is WoW, but it's been years since then.
--RP experience
I've been roleplaying since about 2005, though a large majority has been via forums + IM. I've never roleplayed in an MMO before, so I'm kiiiiind of nervous, haha. the prospect of fiddling with emotes and all that is.... daunting, to say the least. [sub]please be gentle with me, everyone. ;;[/sub]
--Character ideas/info
oh boy. this has been something of a problem. in the past four days alone, I've gone through at least five character ideas. I have pages written on each of them, in word processors and notebooks alike. I'm notoriously indecisive, but that's not the only issue. I keep doubting myself because what if this character is too boring? what if this one's too cliched? too annoying? god, do we really need another miqo'te?? ....kind of at a loss here.

--How did you learn about the coalition?
to be honest, I don't remember? I think it might've been through a link on the Lodestone.
--What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? Light, medium, or heavy?
I would be all for heavy roleplay, but I get overwhelmed really easily – I tend to go all in and then burn myself out. I love FFXIV and I love roleplaying, so I really don't want either of those things to become draining for me. I think I'll start with somewhere around medium, and if I get the hang of it, maybe I'll up the intensity.
--Anything from real life you'€™re comfortable with sharing? (Work, school, hobbies, etc)
hmmm, why not? I'm a 20 year old liberal arts major, though I'm going to be changing to computer science in the fall. games and stories are my two greatest passions, and I really don't want to end up rambling about either of those here, so I'm cutting myself off while I still can. (feel free to PM me with any book/movie/anime/game etc recommendations. I'm always looking for more media to tear through.)
okay, now for the entire reason I even felt inclined to post - my question!
should I transfer my main to Balmung or should I just make a new character altogether?
I'm loathe to make a new character because I just recently hit level 50... but at the same time, should I really transfer him? you guys on Balmung are probably drowning in miqo'te as it is.Â
the only reason I'm asking is because it's a Sunday night here, and just before midnight, which means I miiight be able to squeeze a new character in soon.
