FAVOURITE MUSE(S) YOU’VE WRITTEN: 

FF14: They’re all my favorite...I do think I’m a world focused writer as opposed to character focused. That’s why I make so many NPCs and get drawn in on how their stories weave together for some overarching message. Anyway, Cravs if I had to choose! I’m a sucker for tsunderes xD

OTHER: Tully! A character I made in my ACNL days. I really enjoyed his muscle-bro friendship with Peck. Not really a RP character but one that I still think about from time to time. It doesn’t matter when or where, I love good friendships and ill-fated characters that fight against circumstance.

GETTING TO KNOW THE ACCOUNT

WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO TAKE ON THIS MUSE: 

My path to roleplaying as Cravs is all over the place...When I first started FF14, I made a character with my partner, but it felt like I was ‘held back’ from making MSQ progress if they weren’t also playing. So I made an alt on Balmung to go at my own pace, leaving open the possibility of rping with her someday. That alt was Aiswyda. I found Heartwood and soon after, being the wacko I am, decided to run an arc (Crystal Beasts) with almost no FF14 rp experience under my belt. Things naturally progressed from there as I worked backwards to fill in Wyda’s story. A big step forward was writing “Hound Dog Blues,” which set main themes of sisterhood, finding courage, and coping with loss in stone...it also sealed Wyda’s fate in stone? I wrestled with that for quite some time before finally deciding to go forward with it. Cravs was originally a side character in Wyda’s backstory and now she’s her own, fully fledged person! I do, in fact, like to have my cake and eat it too. Nothings truly closed, anything’s possible. :D

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVOURITE ASPECTS OF YOUR CURRENT MUSE:

Crav's struggles are a reflection of my own. Of avoiding problems, of being scared of change, of being genuine while having ‘baggage’ of how others perceive you now. There’s a story I’m trying to tell with her, and I can learn from it too. I’m trying to.

Simply trying to improve is enough. You will not be able to resolve everything. You will make mistakes. You will be scared and that’s okay too. Hang onto your friendships. Do what you feel is the right thing to do; that’s enough. Take ownership of what has happened and what will happen, so anxiety doesn’t rule over you anymore. And one day, you will look back and see yourself, the same but different. And you will look forward and see yourself, different but the same. 

Cravs will not be forgiven by all - there are things she has done that are simply unforgivable. It is what it is. You can only do what you can do now.

Ahh this got personal didn’t it? Sorry!! But I think this all is very human, and it’s interesting how storytelling impacts us. Fantasy affecting reality! <_>

WHAT’S YOUR BIGGEST INSPIRATION WHEN IT COMES TO WRITING:

My rp partners!! Reading what they’ve written, chatting about scenarios, etc! But to be honest, what inspires me most is knowing that they also enjoy rping and we can rp together and it’s fun! Hanging out with a real person, nerding out over OCs and writing, is great motivation for doing it again. That’s why only in-game rp keeps me hooked, and why OOC chemistry is important. The collaboration and human aspect is what’s great about rping, otherwise I’d just write alone.

Other inspirations are the games I play - I steal bits here and there. And then music for fueling daydreams of course!

Roleplaying is great...it’s led me to write, draw, make videos, run campaigns, hang out with cool people...Without it I definitely wouldn’t be creating so much. Roleplaying is my biggest inspiration when it comes to roleplaying pwahahahha

FAVOURITE TYPES OF THREADS: 

A balance between the mundane and the spectacular! You need the ‘normal’ to give weight to larger events. Also, doing too much of one thing gets stale or becomes taxing.

Thanks for the tag @bek-sc!  Tagging: YOUuuuu *dabs*
