There's this little project by Kass also known as Nhia Soluna that I've taken an interest in, and I think it might help some of you all that have thoughts kind of like I do.
Things like "Events are great and all, and there's these awesome listing sites. Damn, I do pine for the days of just finding people out in the world to roleplay with. If only I had a way to know where folks were?"
Sure there's the Quicksands, but I won't get on the rant of what world/data-center visit has done to that. There's also the Lane, but it's been pretty quiet. There's the bloodsands if you're interested in a good scrap. But how do we find people in the rest of the world, or let people find us?
That's where this little project comes in. This is still a work in progress, so you have to look for it in the 'Testing' section of Dalamud.
People running this plugin, if they opt into doing so, can have their location anonymously broadcast that you're roleplaying. Kind of a beacon to 'hey, I'm here, I'd like to play with others."
Typing /rputils will ring up the settings window, you have to opt into turning on the utilities in the main setting tab, then the sonar in the sonar config tab. The RP Now tag and provide a list of how many people are opting in and flagged as /roleplying in the open world zones.
In those zones you can find RP pins on your map:
Information sent to the server is anonymous so you'll have to head out to those spaces to see who's there.
Please note, this is still in testing, and undergoing, hopefully, future iterations, so feel free to make suggestions and requests.
Instructions on finding the plugin behind the cut.
To find it, go into the Dalamud Settings, and turn on Experimental /Get Plugin Testing Builds.
Then on the plugin installer search for "rp utils" and you should find it
Still amazed that Endwalker has an optional scene where Estinien comes into your room in a half-unbuttoned shirt, tells you that he doesnt understand what the FUCK is going on but he’ll fight anything you tell him to and then he walks through the room just to exit by leaping over the railing on your balcony.
I choose to believe that this is how he thinks flirting works.
This May I want to get back into writing. I’m not at all consistent. I’m at a point where I don’t feel like I can work on bigger things, because I can’t guarantee myself to keep working on it in a week from now. So I will take this month as a training month to get back into the habit of writing. I will do this by writing (or trying to write) 200 words every day. Topic is irrelevant. How great my writing is that day is irrelevant. Just 200 words written down. A habit taking 21 days to form was debunked, it does take a lot longer, but 31 days are a start I would say. These are already 140 words, so 200 words every day are hopefully manageable. You're more than welcome to join me if you like 😊
ARR: Dragons dragons dragons who is this poser who thinks they can dragoon too dragons dragons dragons.
Heavensward: I will end this war with or without you, Warrior of Light. As long as you stay out of my way, we won’t have a problem. Also NIDHOGG!!!!!!
Stormblood: Why is it every time there’s trouble, I’m always having to save your hide?
Shadowbringers: While you’ve been gallavanting on the First, I’ve been doing the Scions’ work. (But only because I fear those two Lalafells more than death.)
Endwalker: You have my lance always and forever, Warrior of Light. With you by my side, there is nothing we can’t accomplish.
