My main is a lala and I was snapped up by a fc when I was new (which i'm glad to be a part of!). I made Liss, my alt so I could make my own FC and level it myself. I also wanted a second character that I don't rush through the storyline with. So on my alt i've been levelling everything at my own pace. On my main I race to the finish line.
I've made subsequent alts that have then joined my FC, so then I share items and stuff.
