Interest Check in a Crystal DC based FFXIV RP/Community Discord?

In my hunger for interaction and wanting to get back into RP in FFXIV, I've come up short on a true 'RP/community finder' style Discord community, for FCs, other groups in and out of game, 1x1 RP, open world RP, and so on. Maybe even would have a section for GPosers to open commissions in if there's demand for it outside of the existing GPose communities. Would be 18+ because there'll be dedicated opt-in channels for NSFW/adult RP and communities because they deserve a place to call home too!

Anyway, I'm doing an 'official' interest check now. If anyone wants to help run it, or wants to give me a hand in orchestrating what is probably a big task, hit me up!

If you're even vaguely interested, a reblog and a like would go a LONG way to helping me out!

(Side note: I have a neglected FFXIV RP sideblog at landshorizon, I'm revamping it right now with new OCs and hoping to launch this just after the revamp! For now I'm posting on my main/multifandom just cause it's easier to keep track of for me.)

hey, do you want to RP with kell's scrimblo bimblos?

I should rekindle my interest in the game with some gosh danged RP, so here's a short introduction of who I got and some hooks to get you more interested!

Kellach Woods - Adventurer, Masked "hero", Explorer of the Unknown (Balmung) The main man. The masked wonder himself. The lad what casually breaks the laws of aetherology by his very existence, more often than not to his detriment. Married, currently helping out his husband as a healer in Gridania as essentially a healing echo person or to diagnose the source of injuries. A lean, mean, weapon-swinging miming machine.

You need to investigate some ruins/forgotten lands/abandoned areas/anything dangerous and need extra muscle.

You need someone to investigate something for you, and unfortunately Hildibrand Manderville does not have time to take your request.

You want something to do with Ul'dah's coliseum and need a man on the inside.

You caught wind that there are several authorities who want him captured and/or monitored for reasons ranging from the frivolous to the deadly serious.

Einrich Woods - Scholar, Atoning Reaper, Former Garlean genocide apologist (Balmung)

Brother to the above and one of the last two remainders that their people existed. Got a bit too involved with the Ala Mhigan war and committed acts that even the Resistance thought went too far, and eventually the guilt of which led him to an exiled Garlean Reaper who taught him the arts as he needs a power greater than his scholar infections to properly atone.

You've heared of the Diabolos' Rogues' actual plans and have learned their leader is still out there

You do not like the idea of more Reapers and want to perhaps end him for it

You found his heavily annotated Medica Thavnairica with notes on aether infections and want to know more (for whatever reason)

Someone you know was a victim of one of his experiments, or seeking justice for those

P'rih Maahl - Summoner, Theologian, Tribal quipper (Balmung)

A young mi'qote lass who seeks to learn of the tribal gods in order to catalogue their different aspects and historical summonings in what she dubs the Primal Primer. Had a close encounter with Ifrit that left her with enough aether to summon an Egi which led to her trying to figure out how to call upon the full power of the beasts without the whole pesky aether drain.

You need cultural insights on the different tribes of Eorzea and beyond.

Someone summoned a Primal and you need someone who's been proven to not be tempered as there is a porxie shortage

You're a member of the off shoot of the P tribe she was banished from, or a different P tribe member who wonders why she's not busy nurturing children.

You heard a friendly voice dispensing folk wisdom with quotes from her tribe (which you think are made up) and figured you wanted to check out what was going on.

Kazuhiro Liangshan - Mystic Ronin, Master of the Empty Sword, Can't remember a thing about his style (Balmung)

A hingan Raen who worked the fields yet during a skirmish that threatened to slaughter his village, he picked up a stray katana and inexplicably began to slaughter, as the inheritor to a style that is more mystical than practical, as he can use it innately, but cannot teach it nor write its forms.

You have somehow heard of the Mu no Ryu style exhibited by this peasant turned ronin and want to seek it out for some reason.

You spot a face-painted red Raen with a pompadour and may be wondering why this look.

You are both tasked with protecting the same person.

You are both drinking in the same establishment.

Maleiscion Ornedwesfv - Dark Knight, Cursed Child, Idiot (Balmung, Zalera)

An exile from his Viera tribe due to a curse that made him ill-suited for male viera tribal lifestyle and other things, he cast himself out at a young age and ended up wandering to Ishgard, where he encountered Dark Knights and found that he could use his "curse" to help the downtrodden. Of course, his curse is just an aetherogenetic anomaly and not actually magical in any way, but he won't let that stop him.

You need a Dark Knight to enact justice on the untouchable.

He is a male viera in an urban area, which should be a curiosity alone.

You seek to cure his curse, yet it keeps resisting all attempts (because it does not exist, and perhaps you should be the one to tell him).

You are a member of said tribe who wishes to commiserate on a potential shared past.

That's what I got, I do have more but that's what I remember at the moment.

⏳/backstory hourglass: for Maati (or any character of your choice)

(Here's the first prompt fill for my modified version of the FFXIVWrite 2023 challenge! As in previous years, I'm clearing out my [oh god 2 year old] backlog of asks. This year, I am aiming to write to two prompts per week, plus an extra credit/bonus day, if I feel up to it.)

For every “⏳” I receive, my muse will openly talk about a bit of their backstory.

Prompt 2: Bark

Who: Maparhi Savaptha, Aynur Savaptha, Hearer Elmott

What: A stranger arrives at Aynur's camp.

Where: The East Shroud, in the area now occupied by Baelsar's Wall.

When: About 30 years ago, early fall

Content notes: Gridania being Gridania

Music: "The Oak" by Spiral Dance (YouTube, Bandcamp, lyrics)

Maparhi woke slowly, scrunching her nose. Outside, the wind danced and tumbled loudly through the slowly-yellowing leaves, playful and purposeful as only autumn wind could be. It was still chilly; only morning. Far too early to get up.

Her mother was not in her usual spot between Maparhi and the entrance, but a comforting warmth still lingered in the furs. She was probably coming right back to bed.

Maparhi was turning to snuggle deeper into the pile of blankets when her skin prickled with the feeling of being watched.

She opened her eyes.

At the open door flap of their home, a strange hyuran man knelt. The sun hung behind him, and she couldn't see his face in the shadow of his wide-brimmed, pointed hat.

Blue. It was deep blue, and so were his robes, and she knew what that meant.

Her heart thumped in her chest, and she tried to shrink beneath the edge of the blanket. Her mother — where was her mother? Maparhi's tail thrashed behind her, trapped under the covers as her ears pricked fruitlessly, scouring the heedless wind for any sign. 

"Don't be afraid, Maparhi," the stranger said, though the rough H went missing when he said it. Although his voice was soft, her name in his mouth made Maparhi startle. When her mother's moccasin-clad feet appeared at his side, Maparhi could see that her fingers were twisted together at her waist, knuckles white.

"But isn't it too soon?" she heard her mother say, quiet, as though fearing to speak the words too loudly.

"Mama?" Maparhi called, hearing her own voice tremble.

"It's al—" Her mother's hands shook as she bit off the word. She muttered something to the man — the Hearer, he must be a Hearer — as she dove past him, pulling Maparhi into her arms.

"I'm sorry, Maparhi," she murmured, the words thick with tears. "I'm so sorry. It's not your fault."

Maparhi clung to her mother's neck, confusion and fear swirling in her chest until she grew dizzy. Outside, the wind gusted around the clearing, tearing leaves from the trees and bowing the grass flat to the earth. The Hearer nearly lost his hat, clapping it to his head with one hand. His eyes grew wide, but he stayed silent.

Her mother was making gentle shushing noises under the wind's howling, fingers combing through Maparhi's hair. "Take a deep breath, beloved. I know, I know, you must be so frightened. But I promise you will be safe, and I promise..." Her mother's arms tightened around her, squeezing her so tightly as if to press her affection into Maparhi's very bones. "...I promise, I love you, always."

It sounded so final, but Maparhi slowly calmed herself in her mother's arms the way she had been guided to do so many times before. She thanked the wind, and she thanked the earth, and bit by bit, she let the tight grip around her heart relax. The gusts calmed. Soon, the wind returned to playing through the leaves as though nothing had happened.

When she emerged from their home, hand-in-hand with her mother, the Hearer — Elmott — introduced himself. Now that she could see beneath his hat, she saw that his face was young, and he had a warm and kindly air. In careful words, he explained what was happening, and Maparhi listened with ears straining toward him, struggling to understand his city accent. She was to come with him to Gridania, to be trained in conjury by Stillglade Fane, because the Elementals had decreed it. 

(At this, Maparhi looked to her mother, flicking her tail to show her puzzlement. Had the wood said anything to her? But her mother simply squeezed her hand reassuringly, though her smile wobbled.)

Hearer Elmott continued his explanation uninterrupted, as though the brief exchange had not happened. Her natural abilities were impressively strong, he said, and this was for her safety — and for the safety of her mother, and of everyone living in the Twelveswood. He was sorry that she had to be taken from her home, but it was necessary so that she could be trained properly, without distraction. He had grown up in the Fane himself, he said, and she would be well-cared-for. 

And that was that.

Nerves still made her limbs shake as Maparhi stood and dressed properly for travel. She was to take nothing with her, the Hearer said, for her every need would be met by the Fane — but as her mother gave her one last hug, she felt a cool weight slip into the neck of her tunic, sliding down until her belt caught it at her waist.

As they traveled west, Maparhi snuck it from her shirt. It was a flat piece of reddish wood, half the width of her small palm, sanded and polished smooth. Into it was carved a tree whose branches and roots spread wide to encompass the whole surface, spilling around the edges. On the other side, nestled between root-tip and leaf, was a hollow that just fit the pad of her thumb.

Carefully, she hid it again, and tried to pretend she did not feel it tapping against her side as she walked in Hearer Elmott's footsteps.

Later, Maparhi would learn that the day she left was her sixth nameday.
