Hi there folks. Pretty new to Final Fantasy XIV, but I've been playing most of the FF games since back at the beginning with FF1. I'm still learning the lore and the general rp atmosphere here. In fact, I wasn't even sure if this question should go here or the lore forum. Decided here, since it does boil down to a question of roleplay.
While studying the lore and thinking of interesting things I could do with a character, I came across the multiverse theory. At first I thought it was just one of those fan theories. Then I started reading solid evidence on it being true. Namely Gilgamesh hoping from world to world in the games. Then there is the appearance of Lightning and even that Samurai girl. All strong indicators that the multiverse theory is not only possible, but likely.
Then I watched videos on the storyline of 3.4. I won't spoil anything, just in case, but even more information that seems to indicate that the multiverse theory is correct.
Said all that, to ask this. How valid would a character be that had visions of these other worlds? For example. The character might one day be sitting around, minding their own business when... BAM! They see Cecil from FF4 changing from a dark knight to a Paladin. Or maybe they witness Kefka moving the statues and bringing ruin to that world.
Maybe even have it so that the visions are so frequent that the character sometimes has trouble distinguishing which world is which.
It sounds like such a fun idea to me.
So. What do y'all think? Mind you, your answers are probably going to be the reason I go forward with it or not. I don't want to roleplay something outside the bounds of lore.
