I've been playing Final Fantasy XIV for a couple months now, and I'm pretty eager to dip my feet into the roleplaying community. Also, progressing through the game by myself is a lonely, solitary existence. Show Content MMORPG/RP ExperienceBack in college a couple years ago my friends really got into C9, and then into Guild Wars 2, which we played for quite a bit. I have to say that FFXIV is one of the best massively multiplayer games I've played, and I've sunk a significant amount of time into it already. In terms of roleplay experience, I did a lot of forum/community-based RP way back in the day, first on a Mega Man site and then later on a Legend of Zelda one for several years. It was small, but tight-knit, and I learned a lot about roleplaying and creative writing through those experiences. Recently I've ventured into the more, uh, mature/erotic type of RP on a couple sites, which is surprisingly more story-driven than you might think, depending on who you partner with. I totally understand that most roleplays here don't go down those avenues, but I'm not squeamish about that sort of thing, if it comes up. I've run the gamut, is what I'm trying to say. Show Content What kind of roleplayer are you aiming to be?Medium to heavy, I suppose, although in general I do try to match my partner. I'm still learning the ropes in regards to chat commands/linkshells/etiquette, but I'm sure I'll get the hang of it as I go. I don't mind talking OOC to discuss stuff roleplay-wise, chat about the game, or even RL stuff. Ideally I'd like to make friends in this game, so we aren't just faceless enigmas behind a computer screen. I think my favorite thing about roleplaying is character development, and having interactions that change our characters in real time. Watching a character progress from "wet behind the ears newbie" to someone with hopes, fears, and dreams is great. It really makes our characters feel more alive, and the game becomes that much more fun to play too. I'd say I'm good with coming up with stuff on the fly, and I'm more concerned with creating a great story than being super rigid in regards to FFXIV's lore. (Even though I do enjoy the lore!) Overall I hope people are patient with me as I figure out how this all works; advice and tips are always appreciated too. Show Content Me IRLI graduated from college about two years ago, and I like playing games, watching movies/TV, and creative writing of all kinds. I'm also an actor, so uh, if you think that's cool, feel free to ask me stuff. Feel free to ask me anything, honestly; like I said, I'd like to make some friends. If you hadn't guessed already, my character's Hathaway Snow, a male Miqo'te with tan skin and light blond hair. He's a Lancer from Gridania. I'm aware that his name/skin color isn't too lore-friendly, especially since he's from the Keepers of the Moon, but I plan on writing a backstory for him soon so that things are somewhat plausible, at least. Either way, I'm excited to get back into roleplaying, and I'm looking forward to meeting all of you! [ Hathaway Snow // Reluctant Prostitute // Wiki ]

If you're on Balmung, I won't be able to roleplay with you, but I've been on the forums for a few days and everyone seems really helpful.

Thanks! I totally stole your formatting in your welcome post, hope you don't mind. Yeah, when I started I used to be on Lamia, but I paid the transfer fee to get to Balmung because that's where people say the roleplay's at. [ Hathaway Snow // Reluctant Prostitute // Wiki ]

Have fun on Balmung! Maybe one day once all the servers stabilize we'll get a chance to meet in-game.
