Hey, folks. I'm new here. I took some time to fill out the newbie template. Check it out!Â Smile

MMORPG background

I first started with MMOs with World of Warcraft.Â I played a Undead Warlock back when they were designated as the "support" mushroom class in the DPS, Tank, and Healer trinity. Later on, I started focusing on tank classes. Some other MMO include: Guild Wars 2, Planetside 2, and FFXIV. I primarily enjoy world exploration and large scale world PvP. It is safe to say I am competitive for PvP. Strangely, I have not gotten into FFXIV PvP. For both PvE and PvP, I opt for tanking and/or bruiser roles.

RP experience

I've had my fair share of text based roleplay and in person roleplay through D&D sessions. I can't say I have too much experience with roleplay within a MMO.

Off the top of my head, I could say that exploration and slice of life roleplays are probably my favorites. Story driven roleplays are also a plus where there is a long term objective that a character can slowly work towards. I value the journey more than the destination. I immensely enjoy survival aspect roleplays. Yep, I'm the dude who keeps track of food, water, and inventory space during D&D sessions.

The character I have the most experience has to be a orcish warrior archetype. A character who is brash, straight-forward and simple minded. I typically opt out of any sort of magical, unnatural abilities, and teleportation since I prefer more conventional solutions to roleplay problems. I try to balance out every positive aspect of my character with a disadvantageous aspect.

Character ideas/info

For FFXIV, I want to play as a roguish character for a change of pace. I have a melting pot of ideas so I'll just list them as quick points. Constructive feedback is always welcome!

Character BackgroundThis is a work in progress and a rough draft. There might be some typos.

C'rookh had a typical childhood. He was taught the basics of literacy and basic communication. When he came of age, C'rookh was initiated into his family tribe's hunting ton by the tribe's elder. Before his hunting of the world, C'rookh prematurely challenged the lone Nunh and lost, which resulted in him remaining a Tia. Eventually, C'rookh goes on his Hunting of the World with a notched bill, flask, and earrings from his adolescence.

[Year passes, Calamity Occurs]

C'rookh returns from the hunt with a effective paralyzing potion recipe. He continues to be a Tia and hunt within the family tribe's hunting ton. His tribe had relocated due to the Calamity. Patrols were stepped up for tribe protection.

[Years pass]

C'rookh awaited for Azeyma's Rest and challenged the Nunh once more. C'rookh opted for first blood. Similar to the first attempt, C'rookh was slated to lose. However, the challenge was interrupted by a marauding pack of Ixali. Almost Immediately, the current Nunh shish-kabobed by a Ixali spear which coincidentally satisfied the first blood requirement. As tradition stated, the title of Nunh is passed onto C'rookh. Unfortunately for C'rookh, this title also had the position of leadership and it is during a period when his family tribe was being butchered. C'rookh tried his best to lead despite being inexperienced but the tribe is eventually overwhelmed and routed. C'rookh succumbed to his wounds and blacked out.

[The next day or so]

C'rookh had awakened in a neighboring Coeurl tribe's hut which is wounds patched. It was explained that he was rescued by hunting pack who were investigating a trail of smoke. News broke to him that others within his tribe family were either missing or dead. After the news was broken to him, C'rookh had a mental break. Shrugging off offers to join up with the neighboring tribe, C'rookh had managed to sneaked out so he could make a trek back home. Once there, he'd only find ransacked huts and charred remains of family. The Miqo'te managed to find that worn notched bill from his hunt and earrings from his youth. Be it a sign from the twelve or not, C'rookh took this as a divine mockery and started to resent Azeyma. After several spouts of denial, C'rookh realized that this was no longer home.

For a lengthy duration, C'rookh just drifted aimlessly. Due to the fact he blames himself for all that occurred, he had turned to liquor. It was a cheap and easy to obtain beverage that couldÂ drown out the 'what-if I did this?' scenarios scratching at the back of his mind. He picked up a short term job here and there for extra Gil but could never stay committed at staying for a long period.

C'rookh now spends his time on the lookout for unattended Gil pouches or skulking around taverns. Still, C'rookh abuses liquor but to a lesser extent. With only a haunting title to his name, he pushes through to do what he can to make ends meet.

How did you learn about the coalition?

At first, I didn't know what the coalition was. Though, as I typed this post I happened to notice Coalition on the site's banner.

What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? (e.g. Light, medium, or heavy)

I would like to be a heavy roleplayer but sometimes life gets in the way and I have to stick with medium/light. If I can find the right people then I would welcome heavy roleplay. I plan to have injuries and consequences stick with my character regardless of the depth of roleplay I get into.

Anything from real life you'Â€Â™re comfortable with sharing? (Work, school, hobbies, etc.)

I'm a college student located in California. I enjoy camping, hikes, and gaming. I currently work part time and I'm hoping for a more stable gig.
