THE QUESTIONS MEME

A first big 'n successful round of apps has concluded and the game is getting off to a roll - since there are always brains to be picked and new pals and acquaintances to be made, how's about we all play a little getting-to-know-you game?

HOW TO PLAY:
• Leave a comment below with your name and the characters who you play.
• Respond to others' comments with questions - they can be about their characters, their current in-game plans or things they'd like to play, their CR, RP in general, their canons and fandoms, or most anything else.
• Answer questions you've received! Keep it short or TL;DR to your heart's content, depending on how much you have or are in the mood to say!
• After each answer you give, ask a question back to the person who answered you. Keep the thread of questioning up for as long as both parties are game!
• Go for it - make friends, make new plans, make anything you like!

Thank you for the questions!

I was a 90's kid, so growing up one thing our family used to do was visit the video store every couple weeks. My brother and I were each allowed to pick one or two things to rent. I don't remember what I'd gone in looking for but I remember it was already checked out, so I wound up picking up FFIX instead. I remember the artwork jumping out at me, and the guy on the front had a tail like a cat how could I not? Funnily enough I'd never played a JRPG before that, so yeah. LOL I was hooked.

What drew me in was the characters. Even the characters I thought were going to be annoying and boring turned out to have really fascinating and compelling arcs. I wanted to figure out what Vivi was, and why Zidane had a tail, and what was behind Dagger's need to run away from home.

I'll admit that not a lot of the FF titles since have grabbed me, not the way that 9 did, but every once in a while I still come across a game that sucks me in completely enough with the characters and story that I just get full on invested. FF14 is also my first MMO, so I've really enjoyed having an ongoing story that my customized character gets to be a part of. I can't really put into words how good and gratifying it feels!
