Rogoa Posted December 10, 2013 Share #1 Posted December 10, 2013 Hopefully this message finds you well To whom it may concern I am but an uneducated lonely Miqo'te who has just begun his adventure in the enormous city of Ul'dah. Aspiring to become a great paladin has left me feeling weak and alone. If you or anyone you know has a spare moment to help an aspiring young gladiator with such large dream please find a way to contact me. Until then I'll be doing everything I can do to try to help various merchants and guildmasters in attempts to gain favor. Sincerely Rogoa Knomerci (Gilgamesh) **please forgive the numbness, this is my first time on ffxiv as well as my first time diving head first into RP. I do hope to find a place to call home where I can feed my RP habit with like minded friends. Also being such a low level I have no problem changing server if I can find a great rp community** Link to comment
LandStander Posted December 10, 2013 Share #2 Posted December 10, 2013 Hello Rogoa, welcome! If you ever decide to move to Balmung give me a poke! I am very new to RPing myself and have less than a year experience under my belt so I know how nerve racking it can be diving in it, but it gives games soooo much more depth. I remember when I first started I had the hardest time not saying peoples names (because they were right over their head!) when they did not introduce themselves yet . Link to comment
Rogoa Posted December 10, 2013 Author Share #3 Posted December 10, 2013 Thank you Lanstander, Being so new I have no loyalty to any particular server, Id be happy to move to Balmung. From what I've noticed most posters here seem to be from that server. Link to comment
Shizuno Posted December 10, 2013 Share #4 Posted December 10, 2013 Hey there, Rogoa. If you're interested in getting involved in an RP-based Free Company, I'd like to shamelessly suggest my own. I'm one of the two leaders of The Hungry Wolf, and we're still actively looking for new members. We're small, and just reworked some of our FC's information, so if you're looking to get deeply involved in an RP FC, we may be a place for you to check out. You can PM me here, find me in-game (Shizu Ayana), or check out our site (hungrywolfacademy.enjin.com) If you're interested in the FC, or just hanging out, get in touch with me! Link to comment
Rogoa Posted December 10, 2013 Author Share #5 Posted December 10, 2013 Just finished the intro video and am now residing on Balmung Name : Rogoa Knomerci Link to comment
Wombat Posted December 10, 2013 Share #6 Posted December 10, 2013 Welcome to Balmung, Ul'dah, and the RPC! Should you need anything in-game don't hesitate to ask Kodaro. Say hi to any you see, we're friendly and rarely bite. Link to comment
LandStander Posted December 10, 2013 Share #7 Posted December 10, 2013 Ah, it seems that you logged off before I could give you a jab. I'll keep an eye out for you :ahriman: Link to comment
Rogoa Posted December 10, 2013 Author Share #8 Posted December 10, 2013 I'm still on, and plan on being on for the next 10 hours or so. I just don't really know when I get a message or for that matter how to reply, But I shall figure it out! Link to comment
Rogoa Posted December 10, 2013 Author Share #9 Posted December 10, 2013 After reading my last post I realize that I sound like a complete and total idiot.. but I swear im a seasoned mmo gamer, just still learning this format promise. Link to comment
Siha Posted December 10, 2013 Share #10 Posted December 10, 2013 The pink text is a message sent specifically to you, I'm not sure what it does on PC but I know on PS3 it makes a very loud sound to let you know you received one. I believe you can just /r and type out your reply to answer someone who talked to you last or you can /tell Firstname Lastname to message them back too! EDIT: Also welcome to the RPC and Balmung, if you ever see any of my alts in game feel free to say hello! Link to comment
C'kayah Polaali Posted December 10, 2013 Share #11 Posted December 10, 2013 But not me. I hate RP. Especially with new players. (j/k! ) Link to comment
DeerNoises Posted December 10, 2013 Share #12 Posted December 10, 2013 Welcome to FFXIV, Balmung, and the RPC My main, Y'lyfriel Sikah, is currently hanging out in Thanalan, with her eyes set on Ul'dah. If you're ever looking for someone to RP your new character against, send a /tell my way. Cheers! :chocobo: Link to comment
Salvi Posted December 10, 2013 Share #13 Posted December 10, 2013 Hi Rogoa, I'm in the same boat as yourself. If you see me around say hello, (I'm at a loss as to the chat myself). Link to comment
Hammer Posted December 11, 2013 Share #14 Posted December 11, 2013 Welcome, Rogoa! Congrats on taking the plunge into RP. I hope you enjoy it! It can be intimidating at first, but don't be afraid to ask questions. Most roleplayers are only too happy to share their knowledge. I think as a gladiator you will make many friends. Link to comment
Olofantur Posted December 11, 2013 Share #15 Posted December 11, 2013 Welcome to the RPC Rogoa, Good to see plenty of introductions already. I was a bit swamped yesterday so my apologies for not providing a few resources earlier, hopefully you'll still find some use in them! While you mentioned moving from Gilgamesh to Balmung i'll make a point of including a few things about both, who knows! http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/misc.php?page=welcome Is a good starting point, a generic welcome post that covers a lot of the fundamentals here at the RPC, tools, history ect. http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=1770 This is a Roleplay handbook written by Eva that covers a franks staggering array of topics. While it won't really help you "dive right in" I think it does aid in getting a firm grasp of some ideas that make FFXIV roleplay a bit different, as well as helping to identify the different kinds of roleplay and players you'll find out there. But you want dive in and boy howdy do I have some dive in ready groups. As a note, I don't like to plug IC communities unless a specific criteria is presented (eg. I LIEK PIRATES.) so instead i'll offer up some OOC ones that will hopefully help you integrate and find a nice niche for yourself out there in the wide world. I just find their is such a variety to character and player desire in both the applicant and the organization that its best to steer clear of assuming. http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=1902 "Intermission" is and OOC chatter hub. and what I mean by that as its an excellent place to get to know the people of Balmung even before you get to know their characters. Scattered across Eorzea, this is a great place to find where exactly people are, what exactly they are doing and if they might be open to a little company. http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=5045 "Balmungs Finest" is a PVE grouping group, or to be more specific, a lot of people, myself included have a desire to place grouping server first, to promote getting to know each other through parties progressing through content just as much as talking and roleplaying. This also, with time, helps cut down on the "this is hard i'm leaving" after a single death. Speed runs are fine (Twelve I enjoy them.) but content can be rough, and its disheartening to feel as though a single slip causes everything to shatter. I'M LOOKING AT YOU AURUM VALE!!! In case Gilgamesh continues to pique your interest they have a linkshell not unlike "Intermission" named "Coalition" that you can find: http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=3116 Finally a small plug for an event occurring this weekend, public and open to all, http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/calendar.php?action=event&eid=55 The Coffer and Coffin event is all about getting people together, new, old, grumpy, and genki. No obligation, no fee, just pop your head in if you like or are in the area. Wow.. with all that aside I think i've finally woken up! Goood morning~ please keep in mind that (as the deluge of welcome posts have stated) the RPC is open to people and filled with open people. Ask some questions, come chat on the forums, maybe send a tell or two in game to people who interest you. Best of luck in Eorzea! I need more tea.. :cactuar: Link to comment
