Hello! - Koen - 09-30-2016

I'm never sure what to write in these things, so I've just followed the template.

I'm not technically new to the game, but I've been gone for so long that I might as well be a newbie. I've played as a healbot and a DPS, so I'm trying out tanking now with one of the new classes. It was difficult at first since my natural reaction as a healer main in most MMOs is to life my robes and run like a wussy, but I've gotten used to it!

I don't have much RP experience, but I've done it before after a few drinks and the people I know who do RP seem like nice enough people. I figure worst case scenario: I walk out in to an alleyway and get stabbed by a Lala for committing some kind of RP blasphemy. We'll have to see.

Creative writing isn't my strong suit, so I've just stuck to a basic character while I'm catching up on any new lore and whatnot. He's an old-ish Ala Mhigan (I'm thinking in his 40's), and he's been wandering around getting up to this or that. He used to be in the military before Ala Mhigo got taken, so he's rigid with certain things in his day-to-day, but it's been 20 years and he's become more relaxed as old wounds have healed. He has a soft spot for little kids, and he thinks he's great with them. His face is pretty ugly though, so he scares most of them off. Anything more detailed, you'll have to prod him and have a chat; no guarantees he'll share anything though. ^^

I have no idea what kind of RPer I'll end up being. Probably light or medium, but I'll have to see where things take me. I'm mainly focused on leveling up so I can get access to more cool looking armours, but I'm sure I'll have time to do the "sit at a bar for 10 minutes and hope someone walks up" ritual a few times during the process.

As for me, I'm a EU player, so hopefully there'll be more than a few EU people out there who don't mind dealing with someone relatively new to the RP thing. I'd like to think I'm laid back, but I've never heard someone admit to being otherwise, so who knows?

Welcome aboard! Smile 

There's definitely more than a handful of europeans around, glad to see another one!

Well, I'd feel bad saying no when you're that enthusiastic, so of course! As for the link, If I knew how to join that thing, I definitely would. A gathering of ripped people who hate Garleans sounds like a fun time to me. :-)

Oh wow! it's so refreshing to see older characters.

I'd definitely be up to roleplay if we are on at the same time.

Welcome to the RPC!

If you feel like being annoyed by a super energetic, super caring, super cheery, pint sized female Highlander who'd be almost the polar opposite of your character, feel free to send a PM or find me in-game on Savona Drake.

I'm mainly a late night EST player so not entirely sure how well our times will line up but I am also able to log on at random hours throughout teh week, it just depends on work schedule.

If you want to know more about the character, feel free to send a PM over!

Both sound like they'd be a lot of fun. I'm still working out the details of this guy's personality, but I'll make sure to poke you if I see you running around.
