Random: Got 4 Atma last night... Pretty impressive.
Zhavi/ExKage: Ah, makes sense! I'll definitely keep that in mind, Thanks you two!
Mage: Coerthas is beautiful in its purity and desolation! Also, epic snowball fights.
Warren: That's about how I expected the IC Board to be taken. I kind of compare it to forums that have both Chat RPs and Forum RPs. Kinda fit the Forum RPs into your character's timeline where it is most fitting (or just plain arbitrarily if it doesn't really have any limitations) and the Chat RPs are understood as happening in the 'now' for the most part. I suppose on some rare occasions a Forum RP could be placed in the future of a chat timeline as well to preserve a character not knowing or knowing something... That's probably less of an issue for a Game RP though?
It would be kind of interesting to have my character's name appear in game when two characters were talking to each other about something, even though I don't actually RP in game. Doesn't help that I don't have a character on Balmung and I'm kind of attached to some of the people I hang out with on Faerie?
"Cast it off after walking the path of an adventurer" -- Jeeeeeerk that's the route I was going to take haha...
My thoughts on the subject right now are that my character is a native of Ishgard, where there still seems to be some lingering xenophobic sentiments (the whole 'unbelievers' issue you face in the game (which is extra weird when the DRG quest line reveals you as the Azure Dragoon-- Shouldn't they trust me based on that fact alone?)), which would lend some believability to his being both an Elezen and a Lancer/Dragoon. Perhaps left his homeland to become a wanderer/adventurer when his opinions on 'unbelievers' dissented from the popular one, deserted his birth name and took up something more world-friendly.
Just a basic outline-- I'll spend today reading up on the lore and the wiki and try to flesh something out fully there when I get a feel for how certain in-game mechanics are handled by the community. Namely, Job/Classes and the Armoury System.
