Hey Ian,
a warm welcome to the RP community from a fellow WoW player and anime watcher! Although when i think of it i'm propably not even in a position to greet new players as i myself joined XIV only a week ago
Anyway, when it comes to reading the sources on that list i just poked into those that seemed interesting and/or important for my character. After i had made myself familiar with the basic lore and setting i started to ask myself questions about the character. Everytime i was unable to answer a question i searched for a lore fitting answer in all the great information threads.Â
Also, while this one might make hardcore rpers roll their eyes and shake their heads in disbelieve, i decided to just throw myself into the RP expirience. Once i had my character somewhat fleshed out and knew how he would react to certain situation i simply started to RP, coming up with more character details on the fly when needed... so far that worked quite well and im really really enjoying my time on Balmung. The RP is so much better than anything ive ever expirienced in WoW.
Sorry for that long post, i propably should stop now so i dont end up writing a novel.
If you have a character on Balmung by any chance feel free to add me, im always up for good fun!
I hope you enjoy your time in the community and am certain that the more expirienced players can answer your questions in way more detail!
Cheers,
Kawa
