1/ Welcome to the world of Crystallis! You have seen reality shatter and collapse around you, in the depths of the void you found a Crystal and now you are in the city of Aqures Ixen, surrounded by Moogles and people as lost and confused as you are. On the bright side, everyone thinks you're a hero! On the downside, they expect you to save the world. Maybe their expectations are a bit too much. Thankfully, you're not abandoned to your fate as a Moogle explains to you everything you need to know. Maybe it's time to get to know your companions in misfortune. 2/ Do you like your new life? No? Well, either way, you better get used to it, to your new powers, to your new house, to the ball of fur that follows your every steps—Who knows, maybe you'll even make some friends here. Besides, even if everyone expects you to save the world, fighting isn't the only way to do so. Maybe you could open a shop to help and properly equip your friends who are actually eager to fight. Maybe you could try and gather people who think diplomacy can stop war, you could even start your own researches on the Crystals— Or you could make sure your house is the prettiest in all of Aqures Ixen. Anything is possible. 3/ Ukulele de Chocobo Upon arrival, your Moogle gave you a map of Crystallis. This world may be a bit big for you to explore, so why not go to the Chocobo Farm and ask for a Chocobo? These big birds can't fly, but they're much more efficient than horses when it comes to travelling. Maybe it's your first time riding a Chocobo; it might be a good idea to have someone with you in case something goes wrong. Or maybe the old man at the farm didn't have any Chocobos left and gave you some Chocobo-Bait© so you can go and capture your own. 4/ A thing called Mognet Hopefully you weren't used to Internet and cellphones back home. Otherwise, you might be a tiny bit confused when your Moogle returns to you with a stack of letters. Or maybe someone else's Moogle is coming to you with a voice message it learnt by heart and is now going to recite to you with a lot of Kupo. That's how the "network" works here. 5/ I believe I can fly~ You are on an Airship! Airships regularly depart from Aqures Ixen and stop by most major cities in the world, so they're the perfect means of transportation for you to go and explore this world. You can go anywhere in a matter of hours — One can only hope you don’t have motion sickness. 6/ Exploration Enough expository banter. Now is the time to explore. Maybe rather than spending most of your time in Aqures Ixen, you'd rather spend it living in Balicea, or betting on Chocobo Races in Trano Golsaucia. Or maybe you'd rather go and explore some ancient ruins that may hold some precious information. With Airships and Chocobos at your disposal, you can go nearly anywhere that isn't under imperial control; unless you have a death wish of course. 7/ Random Encounter You were minding your own business walking around, and suddenly monsters attacked you! Time to put to use the skills you've learned with your Jobs! Alternatively, maybe this encounter isn't random at all, and you have been sent on a mission to kick some imperial asses in the war confronting the Heran Empire and the Republic of Esdham. Good luck! 8/ Getting Jobs is hard It all started when you asked Jessie to give you a new Job. What could and should have been a formality, quickly turned into a trial. All you wanted was a Job, and here you are in the wild, hunting for a Malboro Vine. Or maybe you are in some ancient and decrepit ruins looking for an artifact. Or yet again, maybe she simply asked you to assist her in her researches on the Crystals. Getting new Jobs is not easy. Consider yourself happy though, at least you don't have to do that alone. 9/ The world is subject to unrelenting pain and suffering… This is why you should play a game. After all, there are things a lot more important than saving the world: Blitzball is one of them. Triple Triad is another. Why don't you take a break and do something different for once; anyone wanting to play Blitzball is given a special potion allowing them to breath underwater, whereas someone who wants to play Triple Triad should have no difficulties finding veterans more than happy to get rid of their low level cards. 10/ Wild Card Don't like the options offered here? Go crazy and choose what you want to do in this world! |

Inspector Hildibrand | Final Fantasy XIV
No, really, the moment he arrives in this strange new world, he promptly ignores (in a polite, gentlemanly fashion) any attempts to guide or direct him, so great is his need to immediately explore. His assistant is not here, a distressing fact, but more importantly, just look at this place! There's so many people, so many... strange people, like seriously, are those moogles? Those are real? And what outlandish clothing the Hyurs wear, and... are those even Lalafell? They're short like them, but they don't look the same!
Needless to say, this sudden transition to a bizarre new land is unsettling, and it's completely amazing! For a grand Inspector like Hildibrand, there is nothing greater than a grand mystery such as where on Eorzea he is, why he got there, and if these people need any help with their woes. Even in the most trying of times such as this, a gentleman must always be aware of the needs of the people, ever ready to come to their aid. There's just so many people here, though, where is a lone gentleman inspector to begin?
Why, by finding a suitably dramatic place to make a proclamation of his intentions, of course. That giant crystal that doesn't look like any Aetheryte he's ever seen looks like a good place to come by and introduce himself.]
Ahem, may I have your attention, please! Greetings, people of... wherever this is! I am Inspector Hildibrand, agent of inquiry, inspector extraordinaire! [What follows is his grand bow, a gesture that begins with him turning to the side with one arm twisted up, one twisted down. Naturally, there's a grand smile on his face.] I am here to help you! [And here comes the other half of his bow, faced forward with both arms curved down to make roughly a circle in front of him.] Should anyone need the aid of Eorzea's foremost master of the sleuthing arts, I urge you not to dally! Come forward and be heard, and I will see your needs met!
mandervilles at you...!
So Soren does the only thing that seems natural and frowns, crossing his arms across his chest. He has nothing better to do at present, so why not ask the obvious? (Even if he has a feeling he's going to regret even simply talking to this man). ]
Exactly what good would you do anyone when you don't even know where you are?
Lift up your legs, and put up your hands, be a Mander-Mander-Manderville, man!
Aha, but there is a heckler in the midst! He turns to face a Hyur with a mark on his forehead, very exotic, and raises a gloved hand with one finger extended, to give it a proper shake.]
My good sir, not knowing where I am will not impede me in the least! I have a nose for intrigue, you see, and the scent of danger and mystery is the same anywhere you may go! Alas, that my faithful Nashu is not here to assist me, but even without her, it is a gentleman's duty to give aid to those who need it.
no subject
How noble of you.
[ Soren suspects this is the sort of man who completely misses sarcasm but he can't quite help it. ]
Particularly when you lack the ears for answers. Introducing yourself and making a spectacle without even having the slightest idea where you are is foolish enough, let alone the added idiocy of offering to help people with a job that requires knowledge.
Re: Inspector Hildibrand | Final Fantasy XIV
Maggie makes her way through the crowd until she's able to reach up and tug on Hildibrand's pantleg.]
Ummmmm, excuse me, Inspector? I'm looking for my mommy! Have you seen a Miqo'te with a big spear anywhere? She has spiky red hair and a scar on her nose.
