Sadly I, um, didn't realise getting into Balmung would actually be such a struggle. So it might be a few days before I get in. ><

In terms of a starting point, I might pop in to a few of the open mic events that are on the calendar? Just to lurk and watch for a while. We'll see.

Balmung. Never. Opens.

And if it does? Good luck beating the goldsellers on making new characters. At best you can pray for an immense amount of luck; server crashes ect. But... in all truth? Just transfer. Unlike other MMOs, you can transfer up to 8 character at the SAME time! So if I were you, just make a heap of characters on another server, pass the first little starting quest, and make sure they are 3 days old, and voilà, you can transfer them all for the price of one.

As for LGBT friendliness? I'm pretty sure on Balmung everyone has a code of live and let live OOC. No one will bash you here for being a person who falls under the LGBT umbrella. In truth, I find finding the 'straight white male' is a hard task on Balmung! Then again somehow I ended up spending most of my time with other LGBT folk without even trying. I wouldn't be too worried about it. I do think there is an LS for irl trans people and allies though.

That said, I don't think there is a trans character LS, mostly because I'm going to be very honest with you, a lot of trans characters get fetished here and there still. If you do continue to go down that route with your character, do be aware if you flaunt it left right and centre you might get accused of this. But there are some people who I know who do have trans characters, and treat it very respectfully; and no one has issues with them because yeah, they do it respectfully, not as a fetish thing.

In any case, I wouldn't be too worried about it. Balmung is gay as fuck.

As for level? No one cares. But you might, due to gear and all that! As long you don't start screeching 'spoilers' because you haven't finished the content yet? I don't think anyone really cares.

Best of luck!
