This is a cool idea, thanks for this Big Grin


You invite a friend over to your house for the afternoon. Describe what your friend would see upon entering your home.

Renaise: A nicely decorated house with ornate shields hanging on the walls. Lots of red and white coloured furnishings.
Doc: Books, everywhere, upon tables, every inch of floor would likely be covered in open books saved at a specific page or scrolls both folded and unfolded. The rest would be pretty basic.
Ghost Arrow: The rooms would be neatly decorated, if a touch feminine, flowers likely on tables and frilly things about the place.


During the casual small-talk that ensues, your friend asks you if you have read any good books lately. How do you respond?

Renaise: "Oooh, I read a great recipe for cinnamon doughnuts. Want me to whip up a batch?" *grins*
Doc: You wouldn't remember half of it, but it would be a flow of scientific or mystical ideas and theories that Doc is in the process of debunking or making a joke of that is so long winded youd lose the will to live before even hearing the punchline.
Ghost Arrow: No... *shrugs and stares back at you* What?


Your friend eventually leaves, and you're still bored. Restless, you leave the house and set out for a walk. Describe the neighbourhood you live in.

Renaise: An OK area of Limsa Lominsa, the people who live nearby usually smile at Renaise and offer a greeting as he walks by. Renaise stops to chat occasionally to one or two of them.
Doc: Hasn't really got the faintest idea, its in Gridania, that's for sure, and the nearby neighbours are a little suspicious so he has been keeping an eye on them, other than that, couldn't really tell you.
Ghost Arrow: Slightly run down neighbourhood in Ul'dah. Petty crime is a regular occurrence and the streets are slightly dirty, occasionally an odd smell travels through the area which people can't really explain, but assume its likely sewerage or something decomposing somewhere. (I'm so badly going to imagine Ul'Dah as Ank Morpork >.>)


Oh no! An orphan is in trouble! Down the street from where you stand, a small street urchin is being bullied by three larger youths. What do you do about it?

Renaise: Super mega ultra wedgie on the largest of the bullies, then threaten the bully that no matter where he runs, no matter where he hides, Renaise will find him and if he continues to bully each wedgie he receives would be more agonizing than the last.
Doc: Lecture the bullies on the psychological damage that can be caused by tormenting an adolescent this early into his development. After receiving blank looks from the bullies attempt to turn one into a toad...
Ghost Arrow: Duck down a blind alley and pull on his Ghost Arrow costume, then proceed to tell the bullies that the urchin is under Ghost Arrows protection, watch and laugh as bullies look in awe then quickly disperse.


Adventure time! The next day, still restless, you decide that what you need is a good change of pace. How do you pack for your four-day road trip to Ishgard?

Renaise: Good sturdy armour and shield, possibly a sword, and assortment of snacks and food stuff for the journey. Realises far too late that he hasn't packed any spare underwear.
Doc: Four days to Ishgard? Who would take four days to get to Ishgard? Seriously I have a much quicker way...
Ghost Arrow: Costume, bow, good supply of arrows. Some gil... what else do you need?


Along your journey, you spot some bandits waiting at a bridge across a wide but slow moving river up ahead of you. They haven't seen you yet. You need to cross the bridge to get to where you're going. How do you handle the situation?

Renaise: Attempt to negotiate his way across, if that proves unsuccessful apologise as he is forced to knock each of the bandits into unconsciousness in the ensuing fight.
Doc: If I'm in a hurry, they wouldn't even be aware I was there. There is likely a spell or something for such matters. Don't have the time to deal with idiots...
Ghost Arrow: Wade into the river, and take as many bandits as possible down into the river from the sides of the bridge. Any stragglers get a specially prepared arrow to hold them in place if need be whilst I slip by.


You have just arrived for the first time in a new big city. Where do you go first?

Renaise: See what kinds of new food there is to try here. So likely a pub or culinary guild.
Doc: Depends why I am here, if I have business to attend to I go to deal with that first. If I don't have business I go and see as much of the city as possible, carefully taking mental not of everything I come across.
Ghost Arrow: Restock equipment first, then go see about getting a drink of some kind. Maybe go on patrol a little later.


For being the 1,000th tourist to the city, you have been given a 6,000 gil voucher to spend as you like at the Ishgard Department Store (think FFXIV version of Macy's). What do you spend it on?

Renaise: Give it to someone else who looks like they need it.
Doc: Buy an item of clothing that just looks cool.
Ghost Arrow: Arrows... equipment, something useful. Maybe a present for the wife...


All of that shopping has made you deliriously hungry. What sort of food establishment do you seek out for lunch?

Renaise: Ask around, see what place has the best reputation amongst the locals.
Doc: Wherever as long as it smells pleasant.
Ghost Arrow: One that is busy, usually a good sign.


Five months later and safely back at home, you realize the Winter Festival is approaching! What sort of present do you pick out for your mother (or nearest living relative, or closest friend)?

Renaise: Something pretty for my sister... likely unique and colourful.
Doc: ... whatever she wants...
Ghost Arrow: I dunno, whatever I pick its usually wrong anyway. I dunno why she just isn't OK with gil instead of a present... stupid winter festival... I don't care how much she begs, I'm not buying a moogle...
