High on a hill overlooking the sea is the Scholar's Roost, a hub for mages, scholars, engineers, and mercenaries, and a haven for outcasts of all descriptions. We are the Mythril Wings, and our mission is twofold: to pursue knowledge for its own sake and for the benefit of all peoples, and to protect and shelter the downtrodden, the forgotten, and the hopeless. While nominally acting under the sanction of the Maelstrom, we follow a code of conduct that is all our own. Ultimately our intentions are good, but we're masters at finding creative (and sometimes illegal) ways to achieve our ends. Are you a bit of a rebel? Do you love to experiment with 'forbidden' magicks, or hold political views that could get you killed in certain jurisdictions? Or do you simply need a home and a steady job? You might fit right in with the Mythril Wings.
OOC Information
We are a rank 8 FC on the Balmung server with a medium house at Ward 4, Plot 29 in the Mist. Our focus is primarily on RP, and most of our members would consider themselves to be medium to heavy RPers. We encourage our members to get involved in plotting story arcs for the FC, and we try to make sure each individual character gets a chance to shine.Â
Our official company RP days are Saturday and Sunday evenings, and all members who are in game on these days are encouraged to participate. We typically start at 6 or 7PM PST and continue RPing into the small hours of the morning. We can also be found RPing at various times during the week. Note that we tend to keep late hours even by PST standards, so we're a good FC for night owls (less good for 9-to-5ers, although anyone is welcome).
Recruitment is always open. If you'd like to join, please fill out an application on our website here. Feel free to contact our officers in game with any questions you may have about the FC itself or the application process. Our officers are Adeya Evenar, Asheloux Thalantos/Zephel Balthoux, Synn Heolstor, and Solenne Lagarde/Michaux Vidal.
RP quality and lore compliance are very important to us, so all prospective members must submit an application on our website and participate in an in-character RP test. If you're new to RP, you're welcome to apply, but be willing to learn from more experienced members. If an application is rejected because the officers didn't think your character concept complied with the game lore, you are welcome to tweak your character and resubmit your application. We have standards, but we're not unreasonable.
When you join our FC ICly, be prepared to get swept up in our stories. We are a lively group of trouble-prone misfits. We venture into dangerous territories and get involved in hazardous situations. We commit crimes (for the greater good!), make powerful enemies, and play around with ancient artifacts that are probably best left alone. Expect to take plenty of risks ICly. Character growth through adversity is encouraged.Â
Having said all that, please note that our RP does sometimes include mature topics such as crime, blackmail, violence, strong interpersonal tension, unhealthy relationship dynamics, and in rare cases, torture. (Sexual themes are not permitted.) If you are uncomfortable with any of these subjects, this might not be the FC for you.
