By now i created a couple of characters on Siren, waiting for the 72 hours to pass so i can transfer them over to Balmung
Oh and i've got another short question: Does it sound reasonable that the parents of my character moved from Doma and he therefor has a rather uncommon, asian-influenced name?
Looking forward to join all of you on Balmung!
Yes! ...Although history should be taken into consideration. Doma is (more like was at this point) under Garlean imperial rule. For the first few years the game was out (1.0 -> 2.X until Doman refugees showed up), things were rather peaceful. Domans kept living their lives and had a degree of freedom. We saw them visit for the Heavensturn (New Year) events.
As you progress through the 2.X storyline (post first credits roll), you'll get more information on Doma. I'd also recommend going through the Ninja quests for lore (whether reading them or playing through if you like the job!)
It's highly likely that your character would have moved from Doma to Eorzea, although that is still considered "fairly recent" at this time.
