A moment of boredom led to me recording having a go at jamming along to Dark Messenger (or 'The Darkness of Eternity' as it is so titled on iTunes... I find it funny how nobody can seem to decide how to translate the Final Fantasy track titles from their original Japanese names XD) and recording it.

I had to leave the original track in as a backing track because... well... the Otamatone sounds ear-splittingly awful played solo. XD

Best not played on too loud a volume because a) the Otamatone is inherently badly tuned and notoriously difficult to play precisely, b) the Otamatone may look cute and be fun to play, it has a terrible tone to it, c) I did this in one take, so expect errors and d) there are some notes that were too high to fit on the range of notes the instrument has.

I did it again. Replied instead of edited >.<
It's alright, sorry I haven't posted yet. This month has been another difficult one for me. I hope to get a post up tomorrow evening at the latest. Thank you for being patient everyone.
Sorry for lateness, my mind's been in a weird place where it's just derped over RP recently.
I understand, I've been having a tough time irl as well and haven't been focusing on anything but art lately. Art is sort of a coping mechanism for me I guess, but I also really love this RP so far. I'm really glad our campaign is going well.
So, since school is winding down for me, I should be able to join in soon. When would be a good time for Sin to meet the group? Luna said ya'll should be nearing Dalmasca, so I'm thinking of waiting till then.

All of our characters are about to camp for the night in the Ozome plain, and then we all agreed that we'll time skip (probably a few hours in game time) to them getting to Dalmasca. You're more than welcome to have Sindri stumble upon their camp or decide to wait until we get to Dalmasca. When we get to a new area, I edit the title of the thread to the name of the Area and post helpful links to maps, wikia page, etc.

I'm super happy that you had the idea to make this group and am so grateful you make me a mod! <3 By the way how have you been liking Final Fantasy XII Zodiac Age, I was thinking about buying it next year or next time there's a steam sale since money is too tight for me to spend on video games for myself this Christmas, which is fine b/c I have other games etc. to keep me occupied at the moment.
It's pretty good! I actually plan to play it for the first time in a while soon, since I got so busy with school that I completely forgot about it.

I'll wait to join the post rotation when they join Dalmasca, then!
Things are crazy for me rn. I will take a while to respond. Sorry.
I hope everything is going alright, I'm here if you need to talk to someone, irl comes first so don't worry about it. As far as the RP goes the party can explore Dalmasca for a while, and if you want when we get to Dalmasca Elyssa could perhaps run into or meet a friend from the village she grew up in and decide to help them with a quest or whatever. That way the RP can continue a bit (and Solas & Dris can meet Sindri etc.) in Dalmasca until Elyssa returns. What do you think, it's just a suggestion of course.
One more round of the RP rotation (the current order is: Elyssa, Solas, Dris) and when it returns to Dris's turn we can time skip a bit to the party getting to Dalmasca. What do you guys think?
I think its a good idea...but in the intrests of the rp im okay with you guys skipping my turn for a while...(im really sorry for my inactivity). I feel really bad about it.

No worries, dude(tte)! I have a lot of problems with keeping up with things, so I understand. Just take whatever time you need!

And I'll join the rotation once ya'll reach Dalmasca.
If Luna's in a position to post within next few days, I'll get to writing up my next post, then. I don't want to skip Hikari for no real gains in progression.

Hey everyone. I took a bit of a break since the new year. I'm looking forward to keeping the campaign going. I can post next and I'll do a sort of time skip, in regards to Elyssa she's still an acquaintance to Solas and Dris (and Dris is very thankful to her) but if our characters must mention her let's just say she told them she had something else to do in Dalmasca and left the current party. She can always join again of course, especially since Dris considers her a helpful party member.

Okay, writing up a post now. It should be up soon.
I've added the map and information about Dalmasca. Thank you for being patient with me everyone, if you'd like we can change the post order or keep going forward as is. I think the current post order is:
    ◆Dris
    ◆Solas
    ◆Sindri
I'm totally open to changing the post order, I'm just really happy with this campaign and group in general. You're all awesome. So without further ado, if you'd like to post next Riik go for it. :)

As for the time skip, perhaps it's been a day and Dris, Solas have finally reach the captial city of Dalmasca; Rabanastre, along with Alyssa (who had to leave the party for a bit but hopes/plans to return.) I guess it would be morning in Dalmasca and the merchants are just starting to set up shop when our characters arrive.
I'm fine with whatever order.

I'll post later. I'm not in the mindset for it atm... too much time spent playing Gran Turismo this morning, I think. Hopefully, I'll get my post down later today.
Is Snipe gunna jump in yet, or should I do the next post?
I'm not sure, I'll ask her if she's ready on discord.
Yaaaaay! FFXII has been released on PC!

Now I can take a bunch of screenshots to add more stuff to my Moogle species mod for Stellaris (And play FFXII for fun as well, of course)!
