Welcome, Friends!
There's been a lot going on in Aethertide lately. Here's a bit of a refresher to those who might have missed the scoop!
Storylines
- We've completed Part Three of our Raw Deal seasonal plot. It turns out that the robots that Eduard acquired and Vi investigated were indeed part of a plot to destroy Aethertide. It seems a Garlean invasion force is responsible for these technological horrors.
- We've completed the miniplot, Cleansing the Void-Tainted Girl. The path was voted upon, and the girl's fate decided in an intense battle with potential for disaster! Thankfully, Aethertide succeeded, and her life was spared. There's a new future waiting for her now.
- Llinos is hosting Phoenixfaire, a festival, and its tomorrow at 9:00 PM EST. Come and relax, lift your spirits, and play games with your friends. Aethertide could use a rest after the intensity of recent events, and this is the perfect place to do so.
- Connor is hosting a personal plot on March 4 at 8 EST. He is bringing Aethertide together in hopes of putting an end to a mad quest for vengeance in one fueled by a dark power...
- We're taking suggestions and ideas to make our events more enjoyable. Please toss in your ideas. We're specifically looking for thoughts on accommodating our large group.
- We're preparing for the future of an FC house. Our goal is to have 100m in our company chest before patch 3.3 lands! Your donations are final and the money will NOT be touched until a house can be purchased with it.
- The currency system is still going on. If you're interested in it, check out this post, which contains both the information and available things you can purchase. It's a system that some of you are interested in but not others, and I am still considering its effectiveness in the FC. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for it, or if you're attached to the system at all.
- There's a writing contest every month, with a new theme each month. Our first contest ends in 3 days- the 29th! There's still time to participate.
- You are encouraged to write events for Aethertide. A guide was recently posted here.
