Machina & Magitek is an Immortal Flames division dedicated to research ways to counter enemy warmachina via their own brand of engineering and aetherial arts. The Free Company mostly deals with research into Garlean magitek, but occasionally is granted the opportunity to study Allagan and Primalforged machina as well. On the aethereology side of things, the resident aetherslingers within the Free Company work to develop arcanima geometries and thaumaturgy incantations, as well as modify existing ones to be better suited for use against enemy armour.

A particularly quirky and notably accepting group, the Shroudwolf Clan is a miqo’te keeper clan and Free Company located within the Lavender Beds, Ward 16 Plot 1.They believe in a traditionally modern approach to their family, meaning that they value both pragmatism and the traditional values of their keeper heritages. Though it a Keeper Clan in name, it accepts all races and creeds to its ranks. In some ways, it is more of a fellowship of comrades than a Keeper Clan, and yet because of their familial creed it exists as far more than a simple band of misfits. For anyone who has lost their family, or anyone who never had a family. For anyone who lost their guiding star, or for those following that star and looking for comradery. For anyone who has committed misdeeds and spent their lives trying to atone or escape their past mistakes. Shroudwolf seeks to be a hearth and home for you. So long as you hold the same core values as the clan, you are a Keeper at heart and there is a place for you in our den.

"Tales of a mysterious underground shop peddling impossible and implausible goods have circulated for decades. Now and then, an ambitious fellow will go looking for the place to no avail. Stories have placed the Black Emporium in an alleyway in Ul’dah, in the sewers of Gridania, in the back of an empty boathouse in Limsa Lominsa, at the top of a tower in Ishgard, and hidden beneath the skirts of the sultana herself. No reputable source has ever found it, and none ever will - because it does not exist. You will, of course, hear the standard justifications: it appears only to the worthy, it appears only to the invited, it is hidden by foul magicks, it exists only in the void. Rubbish. There is no magic that could hope to hide an entire shop full of trinkets from the eyes of an Ishgardian Inquisitor. And I am not saying that because I searched for six months and didn’t find it; shut up, Gabrielle." — From a letter by Inquisitor Jouneloix to Archbishop Thordan VII. The Black Emporium is an EU-based heavy role-playing Free Company on Balmung, our aim is to offer our members a place wherein they can partake of and explore a variety of different roleplay opportunities and themes through interactive storytelling. We hope to encourage roleplay that feels natural and fun and we have as such adapted the use of 'factions' within the company. Please be sure to check in our information document linked below.

We're the home of the Whitecliff Clinic, Steel Reason Smithy, Eorzean Exports shipping services, and other miscellaneous work by contract.

Also the home of Castrum Reficiendum, the one and only Garlean speakeasy bar night event. Not to be confused with the other «Blue»! They seem cool too, but we aren't them.

As the newborn Republic of Ishgard grows into a world power, it slowly warms it's frosty relationships with the rest of the world. It doesn't mean Ishgard has to like it. Enter the Ministry of Foreign Affairs ('the Foreign Office'), who represents Ishgard to the rest of the world, and represents a chance for Ishgard to move all it's black sheep out of the City. The first major foreign mission, a consulate to Hingashi, is a dramatically underfunded and understaffed plot of land outside Kugane proper with a shoestring for a budget and a deeply disliked reformist as it's leader. While the work these diplomats do is important to the future of Eorzea, the misfits and outcasts of the Cold North struggle to make that point to really anyone but themselves.

Ages ago a small group had found themselves brought to Eorzea by sailing their ships into the West not knowing what awaited them across the sea. Upon landing on the shores of Eorzea the group took off to different directions become part of the people while keeping records of their adventures which eventually fell into the hands of one Tessariel Aerlinn, a descendant of that group that had called themselves The Scions of Numenor. Reading over their journals it was decided that a company was needed be created to try and locate those who have descended from the various bloodlines and keep up the tradition to help Eorzea however they could. This lead to seeking out a benefactor named Benjimir Thursby. With funds provided by Benjimir Thursby the re-establishing of The Scions of Numenor was made possible and in his stead Tessariel Aerlinn and Jared Quinn were appointed as leaders to run the company as needed to reach their goals. The company started with offering services to protect merchants on trade routes to insure they would reach their destinations before branching out to aiding in other adventuring companies such as delving into tombs or offering insight into the occult using their vast library and knowledge from their within their ranks. As funds were drawn in it became possible to establish a House of Healing where those weary from adventuring or where those scarred by the Calamity could find refuge for however long they needed it without judgment. Healers from all backgrounds are allowed to practice their arts within the House of Healing in order to help those in need be it physical therapy, meditation, traditional or psychological.

We have a medium FC house in the Lavender Beds that functions as a place for adventurers to stay to recover from their last job or anyone needing medical treatment free of charge. Our company takes on missions either spurred by our own curiosities or contracts taken up from those needing some help. We’ve been around since beta and want to help others new to the game as well as to the server. If you are shopping for an FC please give us some consideration. I am available on discord as Tessariel Aerlinn#9977 if there are questions about the FC. We do try to be lore adherent but we do welcome those with their own twist on things as you can see from our own ‘lore.’ We hope to hear from possible recruits soon.

The Astral Academy is - if you ask the headmaster - a place of learning, where knowledge-seekers can learn from one another, pursue their studies and collaborate to recover lost arts and create new ones altogether. That and there’s coin to be made! The Academy is morally grey. While they won’t outright practice forbidden arts or magic, they tend to experiment and push the limits of what is available. When it comes to work, the end justifies the means - if a couple questionable jobs brings them closer to an important breakthrough, it is justified.
