Wednesday's adventure

Hi there!

Today I spent some time crafting and practising my blacksmithing, armorsmithing and goldsmithing. It gets a bit confusing sometimes, when I have my blacksmithing hammer out and tries to select something to make... but noooo.... I need my armorsmithing hammar for that. Growl. One would think that in a more sensible reality, I would realise on my own that it was the wrong hammer and simply exchange them automatically. But nooooo....

After my crafting session, I headed out to Camp Emerald Moss again. Lucky me, I found a guy there selling gloves! Kitty likes new leather.... miao! I teamed up with a friendly gnome who couldn't stop looking up my tail... and together we exterminated some malicious fungi.

Really now, when do we get to the dragons? I'm level 16. Seriously, game, you want me to annihalate 8 mushrooms? And maybe a couple of badgers and a snake?

Yeah, that is a freaking funny/annoying video! Nothing however to do with Final Fantasy, though. You are now converted to the badger tribe!

Speaking of tribes, I had a bit of an Avatar-moment when I found this awesome tree in the woods... it was a kind of crystal white and swaying in a very hauntingly beautiful way in the green glade. I couldn't stop to admire it for long... those mushrooms needed swift punishment!

Eight mushrooms later, I returned to Camp Emerald Moss. I am starting to feel that this area is getting a bit old. Green, green, green, and you know what? Just a hint of green.

Tomorrow I'll try to find my way to some other area, I think. I've heard good thing about this lake-city somewhere in the far far away. Time for some change, I say!

So I'll take my noob level 1 axe (still haven't been able to upgrade!) and my still broken underwear (yeeeew!) that I am not allowed to remove to repair, and leave for Limbo Limbasa? Whatever it's called. I hope they have gay pirates, they are the best!

Singing in the rain

Finally I was able to get back out into the woods! Along with a friend I defeated some evil swarms of bees, some naked moles and firestarter imps. Very epic. *cough*

After all that smiting, it was a relief that it started raining. That way kitty can get clean without having to lick herself! Hmm, *cough*, sentient kittys are wierd. Anyway, I took this wonderful photo of Vivacia's moment in the rain. It will be my picture of the day. Enjoy!

Oh, and in other good news, I got a new belt today! Well, it's a rope, really... apparently it took a lot of crafting, but it's a... rope. A fucking rope. As belt. That took a lot of crafting. Uhm, well, okay, I'm down with that.

Kitty doesn't like waiting...

Patch evening!

Viv kitty thinks that this is GAY. Come on, Square Enix, fix your patches during work hours, please? Kitty wants to play in the evenings.

Miao.

Resting at the fire

Yawn.

Vivacia has been up all day, mining and working on her crafting skills. Mining is kindof fun, running around looking for veins to quarry. The Black Shroud might not be the most inspiring of areas and the scenery is quite monotunous, but sure, I get a good workout! Crafting is very tricky on the other hand. Making simple things requires many different parts from many different professions, and some make no sense. Like, why would I need a level 11 blacksmith to make components for a level 5 axe, when the finished product can be made by a level 4 blacksmith? Really?

Anyhow, I found Viv a nice new top from a merchant at Camp Emerald Moss. It fits her quite nicely, don't you think? Tomorrow she will kick ass in this getup. Well, if she can find someone to repair her broken undergarments... that, thankfully, she can now remove. What a relief!

Journal of the Kitty - the start

Hi there!

This is the start of the journal of the adventurous kitty - Vivacia Yuuki. She is a fictional character living in the world of Final Fantasy XIV. Well, trying to live and make a living, at least. So far she has been dying a lot and spent most of her time being confused, but it is still a fun journey.

I make a kitty because they are very cute and have big ears. Sadly I could not make a dwarf in FFXIV (usually my race of choice), but hey, I'll go for the cute stuff this time. The kitty is named Vivacia after the Liveship in the epic fantasy series Liveship Traders by Robin Hobb, and the surname Yuuki is japanese for "courage" - I felt that this was an appropriate homage to a great author as well as the japanese origin of the Final Fantasy game.

Anyhow, Viv is a marauder blacksmith and she has been a menace to animal life in the woods of the Black Shroud these last few days. Squirrels and marmots beware!

Anyhow, sadly, due to the *^?//%& ass morons who designed this game, there are very few trade possibilities, so Viv can't seem to find any new stuff to wear. Her stuff is starting to break. I was informed of this by a nice icon saying something along the lines of "something is broken... guess what!"

Searching through half a dussin menus I finally found the right submenu for checking broken gear. I can really imagine Viv (seemingly mildly retarded) sitting in a clearing in the woods checking her stuff...

Hmm... is it my axe that's broken? No, it seems fine. Alright... could it be my shoes? No, they seem okay. My gloves are a bit tarnished... gotta do something about that... hmm... I can't really figure it out... what the heck is broken? Did I check my axe already? Yes, it's fine. How about my underpants? Oh fuck, broken! Shredded! But my pants are fine? How did I manage that? It seems quite impressive to break my underpants in battle without much significant damage to my pants.

Oh well. After the broken underpants incident, I decided to go exploring. I wandered off into the wilds and discovered a really hauntingly beautiful windswept moor that looked like something Heathcliff might like to hang out at. Anyhow, while I was lusting after a hunky Heathcliff and checking out the scenery, I got my butt kicked by an evil bird.

Tomorrow we shall move on to new adventures!

Stay tuned.
