Hello everyone! 

There was some recent activity in the old pen-pal thread, so I have decided to make for a new round of signups. 

 

What is the Pen-Pal project? 

The pen-pal project is, as the name suggests, a service where your character can get matched up with another character here on the RPC. The matches are as random as I can make them, and in order to make that happen I need at least 10 people signing up for each round. If you sign up later than this round, I'll put you down on a waiting list and try to get you in when I have enough people to make it random again.

 

If you have/had a pen-pal already but want another, feel free to sign up again. 

Letters are exchanged using PM's here on the RPC, due to the in-game cap on how long a letter can be.

 

If your character can not read/write, I can recommend assuming that they have a scribe to assist them in their endeavor, or alternatively find someone in RP who can help your character get them read. 

 

Okay, how do I sign up? 

Fill out this information: 

Character Name: 

Wiki link/short description:

Have you completed the MSQ up until end of 2.55: Yes/No

My character should be anonymous: Yes/No/Either works 

 

The information helps me pair people up. Please let me know if there's someone I shouldn't pair you with! Send this information in a PM, since it could be sensitive - And don't worry, I won't speak of it elsewhere.

If you link to your wiki, you will not be paired with anyone that I can see your character already knows if possible. The same goes for people of the same FC.

 

The MSQ Question is there so as to eliminate spoiler elements in the RP, since it's had some widespread effects already.  

 

How does anonymity work? 

Anonymity is tricky, because how exactly do you start something without saying who you are. Well, so far I've heard of a few options.

 

1. Use Anon Y'mous 

2. Have one of the pen-pals leave a random letter somewhere and start the correspondence that way 

3. Use a NPC Courier to bring the letters back/forth, knowing it's in the search for a pen-pal. Perhaps your character was feeling lonely or unchallenged in the realms of writing. 

4. Be creative! There are otherwise to twist it together. In all cases I recommend agreeing on a way with your destined pen-pal before starting.

 

When can I start? 

I will announce the pairings when sign-ups start to fizzle out again. I will bump the thread when that happens. When the pairings are announced, one of the names in each set will be highlighted in fat text - That means this person is the one who starts with the first letter. I do however always recommend sending an OOC PM first to make sure your partner is on-board with everything. 

 

Round #1 Matches complete!

 

Names highlighted in bold start the correspondence! I recommend sending people an OOC PM to just make them aware that the matching has completed. I will also try to reach out to people. 

(A) after the two names indicates that the correspondence is anonymous.

Like I said in the other thread, I've been involved in a letter exchange like this before and it was a good time O.....O Here's hoping enough people sign up to get this off the ground.

 

 

Character Name: Hel Spites 

 

 

Wiki link/short description: Hel is a foreigner who, while en route to another place altogether, washed up in Eorzea after a particularly nasty storm sent him off flying off his ship. He's been around long enough that he can understand the language, although he speaks with a thick accent and his writing tends to come across as a bit stilted. Having met his best friend through an anonymous letter exchange, he'd jump at the chance to send more strangers some letters. 

 

Have you completed the MSQ up until end of 2.55: Yeeep. And what and end it was O...O

 

My character should be anonymous: He wouldn't be anonymous.

Wiki link/short description: https://wiki.ffxiv-roleplayers.com/pages/Kyrio_Lamansque - Recently more friendly, but I haven't kept the wiki up to date the best.

Have you completed the MSQ up until end of 2.55: No, but I know generally what has happened. I spoiled myself and watched the Heavensward trailer. 

My character should be anonymous: Either works

Description: San is a 16 year old. She was born and raised in the deep shroud, although her clan is currently living in Thanalan, as they search for a permenant home in the shroud. San is just now learning to read and write so letters from her might include drawings and bad spelling.

 

MSQ complete.

 

Anonymous? No
