Hello, everyone! It's a pleasure to meet you all!
As the title mentions, I am new to RP in an MMO environment and, in all honesty, only somewhat experienced with RP of the pen & paper variety. I've been playing FFXIV off and on since 1.0 (though the bulk of my playtime has been 2.0+) and I'm quite excited to finally try roleplaying in the game. I'm still not quite ready to debut Johari D'laforet, as I need to finalize some details about her life, but I hope to have her ready soon. There's also that pesky little detail about getting her through the MSQ so I can access glamour~ Â
 When I am ready, though, I hope to start off with light or moderate RP to begin. My lore knowledge is rocky at best, so heavy RP would probably be a bit beyond my capabilities...
Any tips or advice for someone like me would be appreciated! For example, when I do have Johari finished, should I make a wiki for her or wait until I've established some connections?   I'm also doing my best to read through etiquette posts, browse lore posts that others have linked to, and I'm trying to make sure my character is "realistic" in the world...but there's still that uncertainty and nervousness about finally taking the plunge.Â
 Still, I look forward to seeing where Johari's adventures take her!
Again, it's a pleasure to meet you all and I hope to be able to RP with some of you soon~
