Hi all, first let me say that I'm a complete newb to RP. Â In fact, I've never actually done it. Â What got me interested I think is a video series called "I remember" in which people talked about their experiences in ver. 1.0 leading up to ARR.
Anyway, while I've never roleplayed before I've always thought character backstory was important. Â For me, my characters have always had personalities and stories of their own. Â I think the reason I never made the leap into RP was because I never really saw my characters as representative of myself. Â That is, I was creating their story, but never pretending I was in their shoes.
That being said, do you guys think RP is a good fit for me? Â I'm definitely willing to give it a shot. Â
If people are interested, I have worked out a pretty decent (I think) backstory to my character X'ala "Kid" Zeahl that I'd like to get some feedback on. Â Is there a good thread for that already, or should I post it here?
I look forward to being part of this great community once ARR finally launches!
