RP PREFERENCES

  • I enjoy long-term stories that unfold slowly and organically. Letting characters grow and connections deepen over time means the big moments feel earned, not rushed or forced.

  • Most of my characters are 'low-power'; normal folks grounded in realistic stories. Mina and Alula sit closer to 'medium-power' (or, as I like to call it, 'Krillin-power'). They’re among the strongest 'normal' people on the star, able to hold their own against the most formidable opponents. But a Scion, an Ascian, or a literal god? They’re out of their league in a fair fight.

  • I enjoy adventuring together in all its forms - whether saving the world (again) or fishing all day. This is a roleplaying game, after all, and I love the “game” part just as much as the “roleplaying.”

  • My RP style is mood-dependent and mirror-ish. I’ll match your pace and tone - whether quiet or lively, descriptive or straightforward. On my own, I tend to speak like I’m really there: thoughts flowing naturally, like a conversation over drinks.

  • Walk-ups and tells (WU/Ts) are always welcome. I'm always ready to jump into character outside of endgame content, but my RP tag activates only with my RP HUD. For longer or ongoing interactions, we can move to Discord as needed.

  • Fighting and sparring are allowed with consent on most characters. I prefer using this friendly spar ruleset if mechanics are desired, but I’m happy to use another or roleplay it out.

RATING

  • Swearing and mature language is permitted and used

  • Mild sexual innuendo and references permitted and used

  • Mild violence is permitted

My rating is a starting point for new RP partners and may evolve as our story and interactions grow. If you’re ever unsure, just ask - and remember, “No” is a complete sentence. Consent is always respected and can be withdrawn at any time.

GENERAL BOUNDARIES

  • 18+ partners only, 25+ preferred.

  • I’m here to make new friends and craft stories together.

  • Romance and relationships may develop naturally if the characters click, but they’re not my main focus. I won’t force them for the sake of drama or setpieces without a good reason.

  • IC ≠ OOC. My characters are not me - their views, feelings, and experiences belong to them alone.

  • I’m fine with dark or intense RP, but please check in first on anything that may need a content/trigger warning. I need to be in the right headspace to handle it - I don’t like having to tap out on a scene I’m invested in.

  • Character bleed is part of this hobby - it’s normal and understandable to get invested. But I am not my characters. If bleed begins to impact how you treat me or others, or if IC dynamics are applied OOC without clear communication, that’s a problem.

DEALBREAKERS (AKA: THE DNI LIST)

  • I have zero tolerance for bigotry. Any homophobia, transphobia, misogyny, or discrimination against people for things they cannot change will end interaction.

  • Romance and ERP aren't a focus. If that’s your primary goal, we aren't a good match. If your character is genuinely interested in pursuing one of mine, make the time to get to know them, as I do for others. Relationships grow organically over time, not through instant gratification or quick walk-ups.

  • If you or your character are under 18, I will end contact immediately. I do not engage with minors online, period. Relevant tweet.

Quick note: I use the 5x5 alignment chart to describe my characters because they exist too often in the grey areas of the traditional 3x3 alignments. Life isn't that simple, and neither are my characters.

About Fairlight

  • She/Her OOC.

  • RP main at this point, but I can also be found raiding, doing completionist content, and - most recently - working through the jump puzzle directory.

  • I’m located in the US Eastern Time Zone.

  • I’ve been RPing since the Gaia Online days. Like many, I started young - middle school, to be exact - and haven’t really stopped since. I’ve been actively RPing in FFXIV since shortly after Dawntrail’s release.

  • "Mina" has existed in one form or another for a long time. The earliest version dates back to the opening of the Gates of Ahn’Qiraj in vanilla World of Warcraft - originally a Human Priest named Leni, who was more or less an idealized version of myself. That version of her lives on in FFXIV as Elara Fairlight.

  • The first "Mina" by name was a Human Mesmer in Guild Wars 2. She doesn’t exist anymore - deleted for the character slot - but that’s where the name started to stick.

  • I’m a huge Megami Tensei fan, and that includes Persona and Metaphor. The aesthetic, themes, and battle systems all resonate with me.

  • Outside of RP, I’m well known in the speedrunning and rhythm game scenes, serving as an ambassador for rhythm games in speedrunning marathons for a long time. Mainly I'm known for frequently showcasing Konami’s long-running beatmania IIDX and Gitadora franchises. Currently, I wear a lot of hats on the Power Up With Pride team, and occasionally contribute to the Tachi rhythm game score tracker project.
