I’m a 30+ year old busy adult that works full time. RP is my fun hobby, let's keep it fun!
I prefer in-game RP over Discord, and need to set aside time for RP in advance (generally weekdays after 5pm PST and anytime on weekends).
Writing partners must be 21+ OOC, due to the high potential for mature subjects in RP.
While any listed RP hooks are a good start for what I'm interested in writing, I love brainstorming new story ideas with writing partners.
Romance is a possibility on some of my characters. I'm not into pre-planned ships, and we won't be compatible writers if romance is your sole or primary goal in RP.
I don't wish to interact with anyone who uses or supports the use of generative AI content. This is a creative hobby. Why are you using an environmentally destructive and wasteful tool that steals the work of actual artists and writers to create a shitty picture of your OC? Miss me with all of that.
What I find acceptable will vary by situation and by my faith in the intentions of my writing partner. If I find something uncomfortable, I will tell you. Please do the same for me.
I reserve the right to remove my character from any interactions that don’t align with my RP values, and encourage any of my potential writing partners to do the same. You respect my time and energy, I respect yours, we’re cool. I want RP to be a mutually satisfying writing collaboration, and a vehicle to propel each others’ characters forward in fulfilling directions.
Themes and topics I enjoy exploring include: relationships between people & their rapidly changing environments, natural histories, where humor & tragedy meet, what happens after the war ends, magic & the occult, family themes (both family of origin and found family), fate vs. free will/personal agency, convention vs. rebellion, change vs. tradition, faith vs. doubt.
Favorite lore topics in XIV include: Dalmasca/Bozja/the IVth Imperial Legion, Tural (especially Urqopacha, Shaaloani, & the Outskirts), Corvos/Thavnair/The Bounty, Aerslaent/The Northern Empty, Viera/Shetona, primals & summoners, magitek devices & airships, mineralogy, the fishing log.

Pawkwoya is tough as nails despite her small stature, and she's got a listening ear for folks from all backgrounds and walks of life. Whether she's got decent advice is another question entirely.Born and raised in the Outskirts by a Tonawawta mother and a Hyune father, Pawkwoya gets along decent with just about anyone, and is loyal to her regulars. Unless you're a jerk, then she won't hesitate to throw your ass out of her bar.(You can assume service from this NPC, and feel free to RP her in your interactions! If I notice someone might be hesitant to approach I'll jump in to RP her a bit. But she's here so you don't have to wait for service and I don't necessarily have to play bartender myself!)
These are the characters I occasionally play, or only intend to bring to specific RP groups/events.
Feel free to ask for a scene on any of them, but keep in mind I only have so much time and energy, despite my obviously horrible case of altoholism. Slowly adding small profile pages for those without individual carrds.
