What are some of the most funny or bizarre roleplays you've seen done in FFXIV?

There is that little bar on the outskirts of Ul'dah if I remember right. I assume I can call it RP because people dragged the fate boss into the bar and had a bar fight with it. It ended with someone screaming "AND STAY OUT!"..quite an entertaining night.

This is why we need Batman in Eorzea.

The brilliance behind this screenshot is beyond measure.

Balmung is the Nar Shaddaa of FFXIV.

Full of slave dancers, people who look like Hutts and loads of controversy.

I've always said The Quicksands is the new Goldshire lol, most of the rp'rers I know as well as my FC avoid that place like the plague. The last bit of RP I remember from there was this girl who was RP'ing that a voidkin impregnated her and her baby in the womb was giving her all these super voidkin powers and she was looking for a husband to help raise it.

Lets um, just say I finished my quest turn in, internally screamed a lot, facepalmed and ported out quickly when I saw that rp >_>

One time some friends and I were sitting in Limsa just chatting in party after running treasure maps. I guess we looked like an ERP cuddle puddle because these two highlander guys came over and asked "IS THIS AN OPEN RP??" and launched into the epic tale of their backstory which involved eyebrow stealing vampires, and took an hour and a half to tell (while his friend just echoed key parts of his story). I don't think they were serious, in fact I think they were trying to tease us but we sat there for the full hour and half enthralled by this ridiculous story, cheering them on.

I hope he found his mothers eyebrows in the end ;~;7

The real gems are the ones you never get to see. The batshit insane plots cooked up within FCs.

I know of an FC that did a werewolf plot in Ishgard.

Werewolves.

MEMORIES!!!!! My group did a werewolf plot in 1.0 since werewolves were loosely tied in the games lore at the time. I don't remember the leve quests name or if it was a normal one or one of the faction leves, just that it was a La Noscean leve, but werewolves were there! The plot was a lot of fun and I'm still sad we could never finish it.

Did you take my picture without my permission?! I thought your Lalafell disguise looked a little hokey.

EDIT: No, that's not really me... though I wish it were.

Most bizarre on Balmung? There's always those funny misfired ERPs that end up shouted to the Smutsand instead of in private channels. Always. Always funny too. But bizarre? Was the mistell of someone saying they got laid more in their ERP than they did in their RL marriage. Felt kinda bad for the gal. If she was a gal. Female character anyway.

Overall most bizarre ever? Got Sastasha on DF and the tank was wearing a cowl. He kept just standing by the healer and not pulling anything. When we finally asked what the heck he was doing, he informed us he was RPing a battlemage. C'mon dude, get in there and be the meatshield. RP what you want with friends, but tank or get out.

Personally though? I think it's pretty danged funny when I trot out my alt: Somebody's Retainer. Will hand out fish in trades to random people and sometimes skid through the Smutsand shouting for my boss, because I HAVE FISH BOSS! HEY WHERE ARE YOU?! It's legit rp in my book, ok?

There's this guy on my server called Godbert Mandervill (notice the lack on an 'e' at the end), that runs dungeons as either a tank or blm. While naked. I had the pleasure of encountering him in my party once on a Gubal HM run. He was not talkative though.

Then there's another one called Ravelord Nito. He's a Roegadyn that wants to be a moogle. I think you can imagine what that guy looks like.
