By the Twelve, it's been so long since this was bumped it might have looked like we were... not doing anything!
(I wish. Â Maybe that means we could get some sleep rather than RPing until some interesting times in the morning >_>
Alas... we've just been focussed a little more on our own little community to ensure that everyone is settled, and fitting in well.
And... it's my absolute joy to announce that everyone now seems to be settled and fitting in well!
A big welcome to Kheja, Lani and Locke who have joined the ranks of minions members that the Jackals can bring to bear on jobs, complementing our arsenal of offensive Aether users, stinky sneaky Hobbitses, and engineers respectively.
We now have an engineer in a salvage company. Â I'm looking forward to seeing what creeps forth from this dastardly combination. *Cackle* May Locke be successful in engineering... your doom! *Strokes Ming the Merciless beard*
So what -has- been happening, event-wise? Â Well! Â As Continuing from Inarah's last post, we had another Missing Member (Obviously. Â That's what we do. Â It's our thing.)
There *was* this weeks Missing Member however! Â Screenshots were taken at this one! Â We're getting a great FC turnout at these, but we'd love to see more folks from outside the FC make an appearance! Â Chatscroll isn't *that* bad, either!
And of course, there was the last Sunny Seaside Bar, that Inarah discussed. Â I'm mentioning it here 'cause i want to post more screenshots.
There have been a couple PvE nights! (Last night we attempted turns 1- 5 with a lot of freshfaces!)
Of course, there are screenshots for this, too.
But that's all well and good, I hear you cry, but where are the -events-?!? Â Well... great question, have an answer!
We've had two major FC story events, both one-off adventures, with the next likely to occur in/around Ishgard given that our next big plot night happens in HW early access!
The first was following on from an earlier shipwreck salvage event, where we found a battered old stone tablet. Â Having had one of our resident scholarly sorts decipher the tablet, it turned out to be instructions, in the form of a riddle, leading to a hunt for an unnamed treasure. Puzzles were solved, ruins were explored, and at the end of the day, having formed a Jackal pyramid, the ultimate treasure was recovered.
None other than... the Jade Chocobo! Â Half the size of the average Lalafell, we're currently having it valued and look forward to turning a tidy profit on this baby! Â If your character is the sort to be interested in purchasing a giant jeweled bird, give us a yell. Â We'll offer a... competive rate on it, promise!
Afterwards, as we were in the region, we hit the Hermit's Hovel for a bit of R&R, of course.
And this Saturday just gone, our very own Romi called together the FC for a bit of a personal... errand. Â I use the term errand loosely, as we were essentialy breaking and entering an old gaol that we're fairly sure we weren't meant to actually be in, but... oh well! Â Since when has that ever stopped us, eh?
End result, Romi found the book she was after, belonging to one of the old prisoners. Â We... really should speak with her about what was in the that book, come to think of it...
