Home Nation: Limsa Lominsa

Main Class/Job: All of them (Jack-of-all-Trades)

Crafts: GSM and ALC mainly

Time online: Usually late, depends on my erratic sleep schedule.

Roleplay?: Nope

Linkshell: Onslaught, the most fabulous LS of them all.

My life in FFXIV: I like to play all of the classes/jobs so I can fill any role that's needed in a party. I'd say I'm fairly good with every class, but my favorite is probably Dragoon. I like to explore a lot, especially in those places with those level 70+ monsters that could kill you just by looking at you. Needless to say I've died a lot (and spent a small fortune in repairs). I'm not much of a chatty person, but if you need help with something feel free to ask, anything like mini ifrit/garuda, toto-rak, DH, job quests, primals, or if you're new and just don't know what to do. Even if you have no idea what you're doing for stuff like DH or the primals, I can help you learn them (except maybe garuda, I haven't done that one much yet). Hell, I'll even help you get to an aetherial gate you're having trouble with. Speaking of which, if you're interested in getting all of the gates, check out my guide on XIVpads, the link is in my sig. I've been told it's pretty helpful .

[Chatoyant]

Hi everybody.. I'm brand new to this server and this game. I'm a level ~10 Thaumaturge and enjoying the game so far and excited for the changes to come. I don't have any friends on this game, so if any other new/lower level players ever want to group up feel free to add Penelope Moreau to your friends list.

I picked this server since it seems to be considered the unofficial RP server, and I loved RPing on EverQuest.

[Vydos]

Character Name: Ronberku Vantarius

Home Nation: Gridania

Main Class/Job(s): 50 PLD

Crafts: Smithing (and eventually everything!)

Time zone: GMT+1

Times online: Late afternoon and evening during the week. Whenever I want during the weekend.

Roleplayer (Y/N): Yes and no. Haven't roleplayed much ingame due to me being more at ease with forum/text based roleplays. I do try to write Ron's random adventures in my blog. People are however free to randomly roleplay with me if they see me though.

Linkshell Status: Eorzean Explorer Society and Social Get Together. They're quite the fun and merry bunch. My only regret is that I'm not online more to enjoy my time with them.

About me in FFXIV: Currently I'm playing this game not as much as I want too. Busy schedule and all. Also trying to focus on other things beside the game, like drawing. Otherwise, I'm quite cheerful and laid back. Always willing to help people and will usually try to raise the mood with silly jokes. I'm the type of person that doesn't mind doing things in this game with complete strangers. Even if it ends in complete and utter failure lol. I won't also exclude people that are new to a fight or instance. I'm here to have fun and enjoy myself foremost.

Otherwise feel free to poke me or have a random chat with me if you see me online. I tend to love those random encounters with people ingame and chatting about the most random stuff. I will even initiate it when I see something interesting. (Like a pair of lalafells wearing pumpkin heads and waving with their weapons...)

[ZephyrFox]

Character Name: Mister Crowley

Home Nation: Limsa Lominsa

Main Class/Job(s): 33THM for now, still trying everything

Crafts: Blacksmith because I wandered into the guild lost on my second day back

Time zone: Eastern Standard Time (EST)

Times online: Varies by day, usually log in around 6pm-11pm

Roleplayer (Y/N): I've done some light RP in the past but nothing too fancy, but I'd be open to try it

About me in FFXIV: I played on the original closed Beta (Or was that an Alpha? I forget) back when Limsa Lominsa was the only choice and hardly anything seemed to work as intended. After getting an early look at the game and seeing its abysmal release I decided against playing but kept an eye on the information out of curiosity as I had been an avid player of FFXI 'til Abyssea ruined the fun for me.

Upon seeing Yoshida's work to make this a better game I've become interested again and after taking advantage of the Welcome Back Campaign I'm very impressed with how much has changed since I last played. I'm very looking foreward to this game and am having quite a bit of fun and all I'm missing now is a good community to join for fun, frolic, and epic adventures. And I fully intend to stay a while after playing these past several days. I am a bit sickly so I may disappear for a few days here and there, but I always come back.

Looking forward to some fun times on Balmung!

[Riku_Toiiku]

Character Name: Riku Toiiku

Home Nation: Gridania

Main Class/Job: Lancer/Dragoon

Crafts: None. I don't craft. Yuck.

Time Zone: BST/GMT

Time Online: Mostly I get online at about 7pm-9pm and come offline between midnight and 5am.

Roleplayer: Yus! I RP all the time! My playing on XIV only ever consists of 3 things: Running around Eorzea doing runs and leves and stuff, sitting in a corner being AFK, or RPing!

Linkshell Status: Part of Intermission. Also, a member of Corvus Cinis and its OOC sister shell, Aes Sedai Tower. I also started up the Cuddle Republic, but that shell doesn't have many members at all.

About me in FFXIV: I play almost every night I suppose. I'm quite shy, though, so I usually avoid parties, which makes farming seals rather difficult >.>. Atm, I'm only a Dragoon/Lancer, havn't got anything else to 50, nor do I yet have any wish to. I'm still levelling Archer and Conjurer, though, to get a few skills from those classes. I also get a sorta RP withdrawal, because I love RP so much, and when none is going on, it makes me sad. Oh, and I also like to offer cuddles! ^^

[Sylvanoshei]

Character Name: Whispering Wind

Home Nation: Gridania

Main Class/Job(s): Archer/Bard (I love bows); though I have all but 2 at 50.

Crafts: Botany 36, but am working on several at the moment.

Time Zone: EST

Times Online: Varies.

Roleplayer (Y/N): Yes, I do enjoy roleplaying, but not ERP. Won't ever do that.

Linkshell Status: Wayward Wind from the global event with Gethyn and Social Get Together

About me in FFXIV: I enjoy exploring and finally got all the aetherytes and nodes. I really like helping people, so if you need help, send me /tell in game. I like doing many things and experiencing all Eorzea has to offer. I have not done Garuda hard yet, but am looking forward to when I decide to go for it. I really want her bow, its the wings on it. ^^

[Dragon]

Character Name: Lilith Drakomirra

Home Nation: Ul'dah

Grand Company: Immortal Flames

@50: Warrior, Bard, White Mage, Black Mage, & Miner

Time zone: Eastern

Times online: Almost always 'online', just not always in-game; anyone that knows me knows how to summon me in-game.

Roleplayer (Y/N): I'm certainly game; have RP'd long before MMORPGs became so mainstream, for what it's worth.

Linkshell Status: Magic of Avalon's Exclusive Warmage Kitty of Death; any other linkshell I'm in, I'm an associate of.

About me in FFXIV: I'm game for almost anything though when it comes down to it, I just don't do dungeons/primals outside of friendly groups, but I'm usually willing to help - but don't ever ask nor talk about being PL'd around me. Just don't.
