Stepping from the shadows...

[Haruka Uesugi]

Hello everyone!

 

I've been lurking for a little while now, trying to figure out how best to show my face. After trying to find some RP in game and realizing that maybe I may have more success if I actually, you know, talk to people, I thought it'd be best if I just jump in. So here you go:

 

MMORPG Background

I've been playing MMORPGs off and on for about 5 or 6 years now. I began with WoW, but jumped to DDO, LotRO, TSW, GW1 and 2. I've been playing FFXIV for about a month and a half now, and that itch to get my roleplay on is starting to make me twitch, thus leading me to...

 

RP Experience

LotRO was my first real experience with MMO RP, but I've been playing table-top games for years. Once I left my minstrel behind, I RPed actively in WoW and GW2. Most of my RP experience has been in WoW, and I've been wanting to get away into a game that better fits my taste.

 

With all that out of the way, I still consider myself very much the beginner. While I've managed to play a single character for a couple years straight in another game, I just don't have as much experience with group RP or the more adventure-aligned play as I would like. Hopefully, I can expand my horizons a little here.

 

Character Info

My main is M'hatya Petih, a Miqo'te Sunseeker on Balmung. A lancer in training, she feels the need to hide among the throngs of Ul'dah while taking odd jobs to advance her skill in the art. I've also got a Hyur named Lisbet Ronsenburg, an arcanist that, if developed, will be from Ishgard.

 

How did you learn about the coalition?

A single search looking for FFXIV RP. Turns out my amateur google-fu has guided me to the right place.

 

What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be?

I suppose I'm what you'd call a medium or heavy roleplayer: I enjoy delving into the lore and seeing what others can create from it, and I really don't enjoy play that completely ignores the world we all occupy.

 

Anything from real life you're comfortable with sharing?

I'm a writer, though you'll likely not find anything I write online, and I'm not published (yet).

Ehehe, the talking really really does help. I started out by stalking characters on the wiki (via recent changes) and pming their players hoping to snag the arpees. It succeeded! So I definitely recommend pming people to set stuff up -- you never know what might arise out of it!

 

Welcome to the RPC, and I hope you're able to find some delicious, gooey rp to sink your teeth into. Definitely check out the linkshell/fc forum and the various events going around Balmung -- the people are super nice and pretty damn inclusive.

Thank you for the warm welcome. I'll be sure to check out the both the LS/FC forum and the events while I cruise around the landscape. From what I've seen so far, the folks around here are pretty laid back people, and I'm looking forward to talking with you all.
