Hi, I'm Jess.
ooc guidelines and roster of characters

nameJess (Discord: pocketpanda)age40+pronounsshe/her/they/themlocationus Central timehome data centerNA Crystal/Dynamis, but willing to travel
ㅤintroㅤ I am an RPer on Final Fantasy XIV. I generally am a mirror RPer and enjoy darker themes, adult content (smut/ERP with chemistry and story beats), combat, drug and alcohol use, romance, religious tropes, political rhetoric and LGBTQA-friendly stuff. I prefer to build long-lasting connections, rather than just one-off encounters.Slice of life RP is okay, but I can grow disinterested if it doesn't ultimately lead to something more exciting. If you’re shy and you see me around, and you’d like to rp, feel free to /tell me, or just walk on up! We can definitely work something out, albeit as long as you follow some common-sense guidelines.While I don't mind discord RP, I do enjoy supplementing it with in-game, as a preference.UNavailable Schedule: Monday & Tuesday nights. Otherwise, I am generally available.I also run a pop-up Brume pub and sanctuary called The Last Drop, owned by the character Gunnar Ironfist. You may find the carrd here.
do notconfuse IC with ooc. i will absolutely not tolerate blurring of that line. i am not my characters, nor are they me.do notvalue the game over RL. no, i do not work, but that doesn't mean that i am available 24/7. i have a family, doctors appointments and general life obligations to perform just like anyone else.do notengage in god-modding, bigotry, emotional tactics such as guilt-tripping, etc. I have unfortunately been subjected to such things in my past and any of the above will swiftly and permanently earn you a place on my blacklist.do notdiscuss 'crimes' with me in-game under any circumstances. If you want my codes, just ask on discord. Sad that it needs to be said, but as I have received multiple requests, please know that if you send a pair request without at least dm'ing me first, it will be declined.
dobe at least 21 years of age (IC and OOC). I do not rp with anyone younger for safety reasons. no exceptions. I will ask your age, screenshot your response and save it. This is a case of looking out for my own ass. I'm old and tired, and not looking to get in trouble or have any drama.dounderstand that i have a chronic pain condition irl, and am currently recovering from cancer. This means that I cannot sit at the computer for marathon RP sessions. I'm good for three, maybe four hours at a time, then I NEED a break to stretch and lay flat for a while, usually anywhere from 15 mins to an hour.doactively participate in the RP and try to give me something to respond to. if I take the time to craft an engaging post, regardless of length, i hope you would put the same amount of effort into your writing.

quick summary Utterly unrepentant gremlin, ersian is a sassy little shithead mechanic who also happens to be good with a rifle. if it has gears, he can fix it or improve it and will gleefully do so, usually for free. other than to his husband, his sister and his sister's partner(s), it's not known that he's also an extremely capable assassin, though not even he knows who his real employers are, much to his continued and mounting frustration. ruu's brother.

quick summary it wasn't long after ersian left the skatay mountain range before his little sister came looking for him. having been a mistweaver in the village, she eventually took up work as an independant escort and dancer. while she had considerable success, she has since shifted her career path slightly to adult modeling. ruu enjoys playing her way through the high life - smiling often and easily, she's quick to make friends with just about anyone. Due to unexpected circumstances, she has left the modeling business and retired from all professions.

quick summary born to a smaller off-shoot of the Antelope tribe deep in the sagolii desert, a'sedai's life was relatively peaceful until a raiding tribe took them over by force. a'targos, the nunh, ruled with a cruel and iron fist and eventually, after enduring over eight turns and what she thought was the death of her lover, sedai challenged him out of desperation. she slew him in one on one combat - but in doing so, completely destabilized her tribe. her family fled to the ends of the star when the tribe could not recover and she landed in Ul'dah, where she now runs a freelance, one-woman courier service.

quick summary when a flight of drakes burned down his parent's farm and incinerated both of them, gunnar was shunted off to the mercy of saint reinette's orphanage. rather than commit himself to the holy see when he came of age, he instead enlisted in the infantry under the command of the temple knights. when he lost his arm, he was dismissed from service with honors, and eventually took up an apprenticeship to a blacksmith, who left everything to him when he succumbed to old age. while he still works the forge, gunnar also owns the last drop, a dive bar in the brume, where only the less fortunate are welcome.

quick summary Darce Vilauclaire is the only child of Viscount Florian Vilauclaire of Ishgard. A rebellious youth from the start, Darce made a splash into society on his fifteenth nameday when he created Parfumerie Narcisse, an exclusive fragrance line that creates custom scents for his clients that take into account both personality and body chemistry together. No perfume is ever duplicated and to wear one of his creations is mark of status among the ton. He has often been the source of wild scandal and speculative gossip with his forays into stripping at a high-class gay gentleman's club in Ul'dah, allegations of piracy in the Ruby Sea, and his industrial rock band Dominion of Ash that still occasionally takes the stage, not to mention the debauched bacchanals he throws every couple of months at various Vilauclaire properties.
