Vairemont Posted February 4, 2013 Share #1 Posted February 4, 2013 Hello all! After stal- err.. lurk- no wait. Browsing the forum and wiki for the past little while I've emerged from my little corner to wave at all you fantastic folk. I will no doubt return to my silent watching again, but now that I have an account I may pop out to add a voice here and there. For anyone interested, or simply bored while waiting for the beta to be released, I'll jot down my little background here. MMORPG Background I started out with WoW. Played from beta to Cataclysm, though I took a few breaks here and there. I didn't start roleplaying in an MMO until just past Burning Crusade, so a couple years into the game. Though WoW was my main, I did play quite a few others. Vanguard, Aion, City of Villains/Heroes, LotRO, GW2, EQ2, and I'm sure I'm missing a few others. All in all a good eight years of experience. I hadn't tried out FFXIV 1.0, but look forward to it's release now! RP Experience Forum roleplay came first, largely made up of Gaia Online. That was, at best, a learning experience. I then evolved into the MMO scene, and haven't looked back since. It's become such a large part of my online experience that I usually put it above anything I may do in-game. While fast paced in-game RP is my forte, I have kept a journal for most of my characters to switch up the pace and I think tends to add more explanation and depth to their actions. Character Ideas/Info As I am new to the Final Fantasy 'verse, I really would love any constructive criticism or suggestions/thoughts. I usually create my characters around my chosen race and class when first delving into a game so as to not make many mistakes, and the personality usually fills them out the most. As you may have noticed from the name, I really love the Lalafell in this series. I've always stuck with the small races in most games. See Gnomes for WoW, Dwarves for LotRO, etc. Anyway, as I haven't played any of the classes/jobs yet, this is open to change but I'm starting with a pugilist/monk. This little monk will have a cheerful and friendly demeanor, with a religious bend to it, possibly leading to fanaticism. To not clump this up too much, I'll post what I have in the Wiki when I can. How did you learn about the coalition? I ran across your Wiki when googling about FFXIV's races and then never really left. What Kind of a Role-player are you aiming to be? Light, Medium, or Heavy? In one word, Medium. To explain more concisely, I plan on role-playing as often as possible. Within cities, out leveling, and inside dungeons if possible! That being said, I also enjoy chatting with others out of character as well. I think the best way to put it is that I'll be a constant potential role-player, who can jump out of OOC whenever RP comes up. Anything from Real Life you're comfortable with sharing? I'm a fairly open person! My actual name's Steve, I'm 22 and live in Canada. I work full-time, and am often online in the early to late afternoons during the weekdays and almost all the time during the weekends. Now then, back to my corner.. :tonberry: Link to comment
