Regarding  toxicity in “The Lemures” RP community

This community’s leader is highly lore ignorant. Despite saying they are ‘lore adherent’, this is not the case at all. If they have a (misifnformed) idea that something (such as alternative energy to ceruleum) is noncanon, despite being present in the lore and referenced multiple times, the leader will not read the lore and, if they do, lack the means to comprehend what they are reading.

It is pretentious and unwelcoming with toxic behavior- You can see red flags in the description of the group, as well as in their rules should you join. Please protect yourself and others by avoiding this group or treading very carefully should you attempt to enter it. If they disagree with you even a little bit, they will attempt to unilaterally invalidate you, force you to change, or ostracize you, even if your character is lore grounded, feasible, and will not impact their characters at all.

Entry 2: Aberrant

Player campaign - Signal from the Void (WIP WIP WIP)

THIS SHEET IS A WIP!!

Summary:

There have always been strange happenings in the void. Strange creatures, strange structures, strange magicks. There is a new oddity to the mix however. An erratic, distorted signal has been detected with a magitek radio receiver, crying out an eerie, repeating pattern into the void. Occasionally, if a voidgate or other anomaly is open, it will be detectible on the Source. It does not seem to have any sort of discernable meaning on first listen, it seems to be a bunch of gibberish. Every time it is detected, it never changes its broadcast, constantly repeating its eerie, unsettling pattern. An interested third party wants to know the origin of this signal, and if it means anything. There are reports of the signal messing with the interested party's favourite radio station.  

Full quest sheet (NOT READY TO USE YET!)

I am going to progressively write this particular void-signal plot as I plan it to be a big one. I'm going to add onto it for future prompts and have different sections be relevant to the prompt, so you might see the same link for future submissions if there's a prompt that I find fits for a plot segment, but they're all different submissions and I'll note the new part.

For now, the new part is the background, adventurer summary, and part 1.

What is this?

Titor’s Questwerks is a new initiative I am starting.  I am working on open campaign sheets for the FFXIV RP community. The sheets are designed to be used by any RP group to run plots or events when the officers might be busy, burned out, having writer's block, or just want to try something different.

I am currently using the FFxivWrite prompts jumpstart ideas for plots.

This is a very new initiative, but if you are interested in following along or reading new campaign sheets I write, please join my new discord.

Entry 1: Foster

Player campaign - Foster for a Day

Summary:

The orphaned children of Idyllshire are feeling quite lonely. During its prime, the city was bustling with adventurers showing off battle trophies or telling compelling stories of their miraculous feats. The number of adventurers have been dwindling, however, as the heroes have mostly moved on to bigger and more trying tasks. The orphans are still there, however! And they are starting to feel a bit forgotten. The Hard Place has started a 'Foster for a Day' program, which calls upon adventurers to help bring some extra joy into the children's lives.

I drew my FFXIV OC Titor in the style of ENA.

I am a novice artist and animator, and this is one of the best things I have produced! I am proud of it.

I feel this is just a troll. Even Yoshida himself said its possible for other chars to travel to the first.

“Alexandra: This is a question on behalf of the game’s roleplaying community. Many players, who do not act as if they are the Warrior of Light, but rather pretend to be everyday adventurers, were excited to create stories that take place on the First but saw that the game’s narrative didn’t really allow travel for “normal” individuals to end up there. If players want to pretend their “normal” characters can travel to and play on the First, is that okay? (I promise this is a question that many of them eagerly await an answer to.) Yoshida: Hrm… Personally, I see video games as something that gives you the freedom to play however you like. So, if you, the player, believe that you can travel to the First, then so be it, right?

We have yet to reveal everything about who the Warrior of Light is, and whether they are the only ones who are special. Furthermore, the definition of a “normal individual” seems a bit vague here, as well. I think the power to believe and the desire to persevere are the biggest elements that drive progress in an individual, and so if you believe that you as a character can go to the First, then wouldn’t that be enough? A life dictated by someone else is no fun anyhow, is it?”

If the anon is serious, then they’re not a lore-abiding individual. They’re a lore-cherrypicking-individual who will reject/harass everything that does not ensure that their character can be the most special and unique character among those they RP with.

Only the WoL can travel to the First and back. Lorebreaking like that is why no one want's to RP with people like you.

See, usually I’d snortgiggle to myself, delete this and go on my merry way, but recently, a friend of mine was so harassed by people nitpicking how he played his character that he felt his only recourse was to delete the character. 

Therefore...

-ahem-

Fuck you. ^^

Look, I get it on some level, okay? I really do. RP is a collaborative writing effort and it’s really hard to write collaboratively if everyone’s playing off of a varying lore set. It can be remarkably difficult to RP with someone who wants to play their character as being a voidsent, an Ascian, a sin-eater or even from another world. 

(Spoiler alert: My Annalei d’Latu is a direct transplant from GW2′s Tyria. And yes, I have that as her backstory! And yes, it’s lorebreaking! And yes, I don’t care!)

You know what you do about people that frustrate you with their refusal to adhere to the Lore™ you personally feel is unbreakable?

You don’t talk to them.

Don’t RP with them. Don’t talk to them. Don’t nitpick their fun. 

Trust me when I say I could find a thousand ways to nitpick your character creation, backstory, writing style and RP choices. I could tear it into shreds and call you a hack writer, a miserable excuse for an RPer, boring, etc. etc. 

Guess what I do? I just don’t.

If I don’t like the way someone RPs or the way someone writes, if I don’t like their writing choices or their character, I keep my mouth shut. Why? Because it’s not hurting MY fun any to let THEM have THEIRS. Literally no one is making you look at my blog, at Summer’s story or at ANYONE’S fun playtime stuff that doesn’t mesh with how YOU interpret the FFXIV lore and world. 

Quite honestly, all you’re doing is being insufferable. And I promise you that insufferable is a lot more damning in the long run than choosing to bend lore and have a little fun that isn’t hurting anyone.
