Naunet Posted November 1, 2013 Share #2 Posted November 1, 2013 I had one thought while reading this: Want. Why was it so impossible to find other people who wanted to roleplay that kind of character when I actually roleplayed an ecologist in TERA? x.x Q to the massive Q. Link to comment

Why was it so impossible to find other people who wanted to roleplay that kind of character when I actually roleplayed an ecologist in TERA? x.x Q to the massive Q. It actually occurs to me now that we might be hard pressed to find fauna in Coerthas. But the idea came from the suspicion that a Shiva battle will be implemented in this region in some form.

Navisse Posted November 1, 2013 Share #4 Posted November 1, 2013 Another spin could come from the rapid climate change that Coerthas has undergone in the past 4 years. It use to be a temperate, green mountain side after all. Love the idea. Link to comment

It use to be a temperate, green mountain side after all. Love the idea. I was not aware of this. It is perfectly plausible to say that a primal is the cause now. Thank you for this information.

Navisse Posted November 2, 2013 Share #6 Posted November 2, 2013 Well, a primal was the cause but that primal is assumed to be Bahamut at the moment ^^ When the Calamity occurred a huge wall of ice came down from the mountains, destroyed everything in it's path and the falling shards of Dalamud altered the climate. It is known to be creeping toward the north shroud though, so something is going on. The Ixali are based in Natalan in Coerthas, and their primal is Garuda. Link to comment
K'dath Posted November 2, 2013 Share #7 Posted November 2, 2013 Did I hear Primal R&D RP? Because I think I heard Primal related RP... Link to comment
WT_Neptune Posted November 2, 2013 Author Share #8 Posted November 2, 2013 Did I hear Primal R&D RP? Because I think I heard Primal related RP... I am not sure what R&D is, but yes, most of my character relates to researching beast tribes and primals. Do I have a colleague now? Link to comment
Kismet Posted November 2, 2013 Share #9 Posted November 2, 2013 I like this idea! You get a gold star! The only feedback I have to offer is not on the idea itself, but rather your posts... The formatting of your font is a huge strain on the eyes. =x (I knew if I didn't say it, somebody else would've...) Also R&D means research and development... Link to comment

Kismet Posted November 2, 2013 Share #11 Posted November 2, 2013 Just the size, the color's okay. =P Link to comment
WT_Neptune Posted November 2, 2013 Author Share #12 Posted November 2, 2013 Serif is largely smaller (hehe) than the default font, so it looks really small. I suppose I'll just go plain for now though. At any rate, I think the expedition is still worth it. At the very least, it is one place to dig into looking for Shiva. I wish more people dug into the whole primal thing. I like the concept of a Garuda SUM going deep into East Shroud and attempting to clear the touched ones, or even perhaps opposing character factions under each Primal. Link to comment

I have made understanding the nature of the beastmen and their craven gods my purpose! Sometimes to... less than ethical ends. But all in the name of research and understanding! And that's gotta count for something. Link to comment

Lament Posted November 2, 2013 Share #16 Posted November 2, 2013 I actually have a character whose job is to research primals and tempering. She suspects an unknown primal (OOCly, Shiva) may be in Coerthas (in addition to Garuda). She would be very interested in exchanging notes on primals. It's worth noting Coerthas does have fauna and flora. It's also worth noting Ishgard may not appreciate foreigners poking about in their lands, especially where nobility, bloodlines and history are concerned. Link to comment

synaesthetic Posted November 2, 2013 Share #18 Posted November 2, 2013 Aeriyn would be interested in this. My chara, Aeriyn Ashley, is a black mage and a scholar of aetherial matters, one who studies magic in its myriad forms, but specifically focuses on the study and data-collection related to corrupted aether. It's for both personal and professional reasons, but she would fall all over herself to join a research expedition to Coerthas. Link to comment
