Prosperous times for the Jackals! A successful rescue operation was conducted in Southern Thanalan, resulting in the release of three prisoners from the clutches of the Amalj'aa. Meanwhile, progress was made in the ongoing campaign against the cult of the Followers of the New Dream. Though the leaders of the cult remain free, the Jackals were able to obtain an object that is coveted by Mr. Sand and his gang. All this with no significant injuries to any of our folks!

The Jackals’ latest job wasn’t quite as successful, however. Hired to find and escort someone to safety, the group found nothing but the dead body of the woman they were meant to protect. Although no Jackals were hurt, there’s definitely a storm in the horizon.

The past couple of weeks brought some much needed leisure time for our members as well. The last edition of the Sunny Seaside Bar included a mixology contest that was won by Nailah, with ‘The Rainbow’, which will now be permanently featured on our menu. There was even time for a fishing trip! The Jackals also welcomed two new members, Ebony Spring and Kalam’ra Shadhavar!

Last but not least, thanks to the effort of Kilid, Xiv and all other contributors, the Jackalendar is complete! We get to show all of Eorzea our radiant beauty, and it’s for charity!

After another story arc involving death and bloodshed came to its conclusion, it was high time for the Jackals to take a break with more social pursuits. The Sunny Seaside Bar was a lovely diversion, as usual, and we came away from a game of dodgeball with one more win to our name! Jino arranged a relaxing tea party for all of us on Friday and we took the chance to introduce ourselves to all the new members of our pack. The next day, we headed out to Thanalan to sell ourselves for charity at a friendly date auction. The proceeds, naturally, went to our Sunny Futures Fund to help the impoverished and struggling souls all throughout Eorzea. Finally, last night we travelled to the Goblet to sell our wares at the Jackal Crafts Faire arranged by Ludi.

A calm before the storm, perhaps...?

[Image: 2395184.jpg]

Our PVE nights are still alive and kicking as well. With Coil done and dusted, we didn't rest on our laurels, oh no. Bismarck Ex was tackled next and we made sushi out of that whale! (Left to right: Kheja, Zel, Xiv, Plat, Inarah, Kilid, Locke and Aeron.) Ravana awaits!

[Image: 2393890.jpg]

This week we have our usual events, with the Missing Member on Monday and PVE on Wednesday, but the Sunny Seaside Bar will be relocating to the Silver Bazaar in Western Thanalan for one night. Why? Because the First Annual Flames Festival is being held there and we'll be providing the food and drinks for the evening! Once that's over, we'll be getting back into the swing of combat with some All Saints' Wake-themed events and spooky happenings for the Jackals. Hope you're all prepared!

Ho there, it's your newest Agent Locke, here to give you the recent happenings in Jackal & Hide!

There will be no puns.

These month's events were frightening(I lied) delightful! All was well... Our Craft Faires were moving ever forward with the Jackals displaying their finest wares for the community, members gathering weekly at the Missing Member which is ironic since members try not to miss it, fighting Garleans and putting an end to the threat against the Jackals...
[Image: 2409091.jpg]

And then...All Saint's Wake. It all began with a strange happening around the house, a spooky painting, a horrific haunting with dancing and singing―whether they liked it or not! The festivities, perhaps, put the Jackals on the wrong foot(ugh), or perhaps...the right one? Maybe both, alternately, in rhythm..!

Our very own Sunny Seaside Bar riled and reveled with in these spooktacular(no) traditions, with a dastardly disguises and bloodcurdling beverages! Congratulations to the winners of the contest, your costumes were a treat(I'm so sorry) for all, make no bones(help) about it!
[Image: 2413814.jpg]

But with the All Saint's Festivities a mere ghost(no more) of our past, the Jackals moved forward! First with our Legend of the Jade Chocobo, where we followed the tricky trail of transcribed tablets into tiers of traps! We came out of it...mostly unscathed, but not without a chest of shiny booty and another tablet!
[Image: 2418493.jpg]

Donned in bling and looking dapper, the Jackals went undercover in the hopes of finding a murderer aboard a fancy boat party off the shores of Costa del Sol. We got up close and personal with the nobility, rooting out sources while trying to be as unconspicuous as possible. And we got our man! Sort of. Man of a man, but close enough, right? Right..?
[Image: 2421947.jpg]

There's been pony farming, grinding Alexander's gears, and prepping our airships for some exploration (2 built within the month). Needless to say, we're ready for the new content that's been unleashed in 3.1! See you all there!

The past month has seen the Sunny Seaside Bar and Jackal Crafts Faire come and go, pony and Coil farming on our PVE nights and a few RP events run by some of our pack. We also had another clue in our current company plotline, the great alchemy mystery.

[Image: 2440239.jpg]

As the holidays draw ever near, however, it's time to wind things down and relax before the New Year kicks in with a vengeance. We had our last Sunny Seaside Bar of the year, Starlight themed of course, just last night in the snowy hills of Coerthas.

[Image: dOsdurA.png]

Coming up on Friday, the Jackals will be meeting in our home for our very own Starlight feast; on the following Monday, our "Secret Santa" gifts will be given out. But the big highlight of this moon has to be the wedding of Cassandra and Ludivine on Saturday, only our second wedding ever in the company! Congratulations, you two!

We'll also be opening our doors to applications for new members come January so watch this space!

All of us here at Jackal & Hide wish you a very merry Starlight and a happy New Year!

Though December has been a month of rest for the Jackals, Starlight was indeed full of joy! We started off the season to be jolly with a feast that included an enormous turkey, capable of feeding about a dozen Jackals, including Bert and Thya! And of course, there was also cake!

[Image: 2452462.jpg]

Bonus: Lalafell screenshot.

[Image: 1450471687_d983ce1e12a0a92d71a9aca0d9ca1250.jpg]

On their second attempt, Ludivine and Cassandra were finally wedded, the ceremony was attended by many Jackals and other friends of the couple, as well as their adoptive dog-son, the majestic Ruffles.

[Image: 2453271.jpg]

A Secret Santa was also part of the festivities! But with Starlight now over and the heavens turned, the Jackals once again face new challenges! The first job of the year was a rescue operation headed by Cass. The Jackals saved a dozen Coeurl kittens, some of which were even adopted (because we needed more cats in the house)! The Jackals received an ominous warning however. Will there be consequences? Only the future will tell!

[Image: 2487127.jpg]

A little R&R was in order, and so the Jackals enjoyed themselves at the Kindred's Friendly Date Auction and at the year's first Sunny Seaside Bar! The new year also called for a new menu!

[Image: NVX9KzD.jpg]

Despite the abundance of cats in the house, the Jackals somehow noticed that one of them was missing! Thya was gone, and so a second kitten rescue was organized. It didn't go quite as well as the first one however, several Jackals were injured and Thya's whereabouts are still uncertain. She will no doubt be found though, for no Jackal will be left behind!

Stay tuned for more kitten rescuing! We also have special things planned for our one-year anniversary, coming up next week!

Mmhmm! Ooohh yes! That's right folks... it's time for Ol' Papa Kilid here to bring you beautiful people up to speed on the latest events and goings on within Jackal & Hide. It's been a busy ol' month, so grab a pew, help yourself to a drink, and get settled, we could be here some time...

First off, let's get the introductions done! A huge Jackal welcome to the following:

And a huge welcome back to:

Show Content
Read on for lots more news
Right! With that out of the way, what's been going on? Well, first and foremost, there's been all the usual, but still ever-exciting, personal RP. Storylines popping up left, right and center!
Long-lost family have been re-united!
The darkest depths of souls have been searched! (And hopefully returned from)
Someone keeps eating all the damned cakes in the kitchen!

And that's just the stuff that's been happening outside of our scheduled programming hours! Hooooo boy, has there been a lot happening since the winter break! So much so that, yes, I'm abusing exclamation marks, and I just don't care!



So, starting off, there was the continuation of the company storyline, returning to a manor in the Shroud that we knew was home to some rather unpleasant experiments. In usual Jackal style, by the time we left the building was crumbling, which is convenient as it hides the bodies.
[Image: K9S2X98.png]

(Magitek and coated shields ftw!)



Parts two and three of the Thya rescue were played out, and the character is now returned to us! Even less of a training Warrior than ever before (We're hopefully working on that, see above!), but they're back and mostly in one piece! Which is always a desirable end goal when it comes to a rescue, ne?

Sadly, we did lose the Reclaimer, our first airship and joint-baby of both Kilid, who wanted the ship made so damned badly (With more cannons. Always with more cannons!), and Locke, who oversaw construction of the beauty.
[Image: LpkroHy.png]
[Image: uUgk2vG.jpg]
(Ladies and gentlemen, the survivors of team two!)




We've had a few of the usual Missing Member Monday gatherings, which now form the basis of our weekly IC updates, bringing our own folks up to speed on the latest goings on within the Jackals. Which is always nice!
[Image: fES4pgH.png]
[Image: YgM9MkF.png]




Surely that's it, right? There can't be more, how much awesome can one post contain? Well I'm afraid this ride is far from over. How about the Sunny Seaside Bar? Oh yes, that happened. It turns out my counting has been a bit off, and this was only the 22nd bar, at that!

Major kudos to Savo for taking up the challenge of our 'quiet bar' and turning up to perform. This was the first time Kilid had the chance to hear one of her performances, and boy was he impressed. A second gil purse wound it's way to her for being thoroughly entertaining, while oddly moving at the same time.

Beautiful songs performed that night!
[Image: fGEtuH3.png]

Oh, and there was the little matter of Jackal and Hide turning a whopping one year old, too! A two-part event was held to celebrate this, the first of which being a conclusion to our current major plot arc that had us sneaking (... I use the term 'sneaking' loosely) aboard the airship of what we believed to be the mastermind of the current plot. Not a bad result, that night. Guards were dealt with, a prisoner was taken, and we got an airship to replace the one we lost rescuing Thya!

The prisoner died under mysterious circumstances, but what can you do, eh? (Really, no Jackals were involved in the death of this prisoner.)

Anyway, part two occurred after we'd stripped the excess luxury from the airship, and palmed the cargo off onto the relevant resellers, and took place in the Maelstrom camp, Bronze Lake! Food, drink, and some well-deserved relaxation was had by all that night, in a stunning setting. And not a Tonberry in sight!

Done yet? Nope! Getting there though, I promise. See, that overarching plot event? It wasn't entirely wrapped up, there was the little matter of a rather heavily enhanced mutant Amalj'aa to deal with. And as luck would have it, the combat system we're testing needed to go through a trial-by-fire in regards to the toughest foes we'd be facing. What followed was a lengthy battle that, I think, introduced the fundamentals needed to take on just about any foe that the Jackals may come up against in the future.
[Image: 4kZbw3Y.png]
[Image: 6YFtp3o.png]



But you're done now Kilid, right? Surely that's it. How much can one FC do in a month?! Oh bless you, sweet Summer child. See, we have new members. They'd not experienced the delights of dodgeball yet (A dodgeball league is in the works, don't worry! We just need a few more FC's to experience the delight of ball-based battle.) and so, we had a dodgeball night! Just the one round, sadly, but still... hopefully the bug has bitten, and the newbloods can take to the field of battle again soon.

Know what? There's more! Jackal & Hide teamed up with the Kindred to paint several towns red, after drinking them dry.

A joint-FC pub crawl happened, exploring the various taverns and inns created by various FCs about the community before ending at the Kindred's spa-bar, and I'll be damned if we don't do something like this again in the near future. It. Was. AWESOME.

But what's a salvage shop without things to sell? Aside from what we stripped from the aforementioned airship, anyway! A member event happened! Cait led a motley crew deep into a crypt in search of suitable treasure! Frustratingly, I wasn't able to make that event myself, but given that I may well be nearing the cap for screenshots in a post, that's... probably a good thing.

Anyway! Back on track, treasure was found, fun was had by those who went along, and everyone made it back alive, which is the best result for any Jackal excursion!



Ohohoho, I bet you thought it was over, didn't you? Well not quite! See, there was some relevant and important news from within the Jackals that we needed to share.

S' our great pleasure to announce that our very own Kheja'a has stepped up to shoulder the weight of leadership, becoming another agent of the Jackals! May yourself, Locke and Cass bring us many events in the future, and may your reign be long!



And... I think that's it. I'm fairly sure that's it. If there's more, then I'll just have to do a second post, because Twelve help me if there's not enough in this update already.

Seriously. All this, in a month. I just don't know where we find the time.

What's to come? Well, there's a Valentione's bar, which you can see more about here: http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread....#pid241599

And then there's the big one. The 24th bar. One. Whole. Year, of the Sunny Seaside Bar. We're planning something special for this one :3 Lots of prep needs to be done, events planned, and costumes picked, but oh yes, yes indeed, it's going to be a fun one we hope.

What's the theme? Well, it depends on whether you're in the US, or outside, as to which video is relevant.

In the US? You'll want to watch this!

UK? (Good on you!) You'll probably be more at home with this!

From elsewhere? There's every chance you've got your own version of the above, and if not? I'm fairly sure you get the idea, at the very least. It should be good.

Hope to see you all about soon, folks.

Signing out,

Ol' Papa Kilid

"Ye lookin’ fer work? Or mebbe a lil adventure, aye? We got plenty’a both an’...” The blonde miqo’te looks down at the parchment held between her hands. “Kilid. Ah ain’t sayin’ that,” she huffs.

A male Seeker looks on, grinning widely, and gives her a thumbs up.
[Image: IjnbfBf.png]

“Oh fer ‘zeyma’s sake... Right! We got plenty’a both an’ do all sorts’a stuff. Ye could even call us...” She lets out a long, thin sigh through her nose. “Jackals’a all trades.”
[Image: 2832G0G.png]

A scathing look is sent in the direction of the male before she shakes her head. "So if’n yer in’rested, ‘ead on over t’Mist, near Limsa, an’ look fer Sunny Seas Salvage. That’s our front--ah mean, shop. Aye, that.”

Interested in joining? Apply here or, if you have questions first, look for J’inarah Marad or J’kilid Tia in game!

Testing, testing! Glorious catte overlord #3 brand new officer Kheja'a speaking!
Much like the month before, we've been very busy indeed! Fiery love and Gladiator-style games at the ever-Sunny Seaside Bar, a long-running personal plot involving assassins and Ishgardians coming to an icy end (all's well that ends well, right...?), and some in-house on-the-beach sparring to show who's the real leader of the pack. More concerningly, Zelenha and Thya haven't been seen recently. Wherever have they gone?

[Image: 2531632.jpg]
Can we do our negations someplace warmer next time?

On a brighter, more social note, we raided the Kindred's house (read: their bar), embarked on another pub crawl, and performed besides bards from across the realm. This lucky man even married the girl of his dreams! And when all that was done, there was always the Missing Member to kick back, relax and grab a pint of ale.

[Image: e2ca597608.png]
And all because he caught a bouqet.

Lastly, patch 3.2 is here! We've all been very active, whether that be with crafting, PvE, or all sorts of wonderful new content. The might of the Illuminati (the goblin kind, mind you) proved no match for a coordinated strike force of Jackals and Kindred! Some of our more ambitious members have even challenged Sephirot, but thus far, the Fiend stands unvanquished. Still, it is but a matter of time. The good guys always win! Are we good guys now?
[Image: 2547076.jpg]

Because as every adventurer knows, cool guys don't look at explosions.
(left to right: Maddoc, Inarah, Stone, Torhe (Kilid), Celeste (from HoD!), Ludivine, Mauh'a (from Kindred!) and yours truly.)

And with that, I'm signing off! On a closing note, it is also my pleasure to announce that a brand new FC plot arc will soon be starting! Please look forward to it[sup]TM[/sup].

The past month has been full of adventure, intrigue and revelry alike. On the more lighthearted side of life, we've seen another Sunny Seaside Bar, bringing performances by myriad bards to our lovely patrons. We also proved that Jackals can indeed wash up, dress nice and even behave in a civilised manner at the Wine and Dine Festival.

[Image: 2569874.jpg]

Amidst copious drinks at our weekly meetings at the Missing Member and odd jobs here and there, we set another company plotline into play. Tasked with delivering a package to Coerthas, it soon became apparent it was a trap. We escaped with our lives and hunted down the client who hired us. The trail led to a tiny village deep in the Shroud, where darkness lurked behind smiling faces. The mystery continues...

[Image: 2584271.jpg]

Still enjoying the rest of the game's content, we've also been busy crafting, gathering, grinding for relics and much more. Some of us challenged King Thordan to the Extreme and walked away victorious!

[Image: 2573363.jpg]
(Left to right: Ludivine, Inarah, Oyuu, Thya, Torhe, Kheja, Silvaire and Locke)

In the meantime, we had an influx of new additions to our band of misfits and welcomed aboard: Rhalkr Thraikund, J'takra Tia, Oyuu Dataq, Kovu Simochi, Misuzu Misu, Syngiberk Doenimohl, Surennai and Kokei Himaa, Mauh'a Relanah, W'gahr Lupercal, Alia Naveleal, Illyriel Otonashi, Eowale Dotharl, Reinhardt Ironhand, R'khei Tia, Nailah Quill, L'dhala Nunh, June Barlokov and Viggo Stormstar!

If you're thinking, "Bloody hells, that's a shiteload of folks," you'd be damn right. That's why, in order to maintain harmony and ensure the new recruits mesh well with the rest of the pack, we're closing recruitment for the foreseeable future. Don't you worry, though; we'll make an announcement when we open our doors again.

That's all from the Jackals for now. Azeyma smile on you!

The past month has been another shining example of the company's approach to work. Either we find adventure, or it finds us! The result is the same; plenty of work to keep our many new employees busy. And busy they have been, be it with jobs of their own or those arranged by the agents.

[Image: ecffc6b25e.png]

One such assignment had us escorting an archeologist through a system of caves, past subterranean lakes and perilous traps in search of valuable artifacts. Though we were met with fierce resistance from a group of cultists that had thought to claim the priceless relics for their own twisted ends, we emerged victorious and (mostly) unscathed.

[Image: 164f9ac17d.png]

Another job, however, did not go quite as planned. When a client mistakenly suspected us of stealing the very item we had been hired to retrieve, adventure very much found us, in its less desireable form. Armed attackers struck at the heart of our organization in the night, causing significant damage to the house and injuring numerours Jackals. Two unfortunate souls were taken and held for ransom, but have since been safely returned after the threat was dealt with.

On a closing note, we are deeply saddened to learn of the most untimely death of Locke Rinannis, a valued former agent of the company and trusted friend to many. His inspiring cheerfulness and engineering expertise will be missed.

That's all for this month; see you in 3.3!

The Jackals have been saving up for many months, with generous donations from our members and farming nights to scrape together gil, and we're excited to announce that we swapped our small house in the Mist for a large in one of the new wards introduced by patch 3.3. Sunny Seas Salvage is now located at Ward 12, Plot 35 of Mist! With all that space, we managed to move many of our public areas that were contained in private rooms into the main house. The lounge, sparring room, spa, war room and infirmary can all be accessed from the house interior.

We have a story arc currently in progress to explain the move. It started with infiltrating a fancy party, which led us to taking down pirates last night and stealing their ships. This Saturday will draw it to a conclusion and then the Jackals can start RPing in our lovely new home.

Meanwhile, we're enjoying all the other goodies 3.3 brought us, from dungeons and trials to crafting and, yes, even moogles. We're preparing RP plots for further down the road and, of course, will be running the Sunny Seaside Bar again this Saturday evening. Lastly, whilst our doors remain closed to new members, we'll be taking a look at recruitment in a few weeks, once we've settled with the move and new content. Watch this space!

Just a quick one to let you all know we've opened recruitment and will be accepting a small number of applicants. If you're interested, check out our application form or contact a leader (J'kilid Tia, J'inarah Marad, Kheja'a Akhabila, Maral Ura and Silvaire Vairemont) for more information.

Edit: That was quick! As of 3 July, recruitment is now closed again.

The last month has been one of the calmer ones, with our various members taking a much neded break, but! If you thought we would sit idle, you are wrong! Even this month, too, we had work to do. This time , it was a bunch of shady Lalafell that hired us to scout out newly discovered ruins of an old, mhachian outpost...

Diving into the shady tunnels, seeking treasures and lost lalafellin explorers alike, it didn't take long for our adventurers to find something. Or rather, the old and intact defense mechanisms of ancient Mhach found them. Closing the doors behind their backs and activating cruel traps, there was only one way: Forward! Fighting their way through malevolent homunculi and mindboggling illusions, they almost fell prey to the final guard, but they still prevailed. Bloody and beaten, but alive. Claiming ancient tomes and magical artifacts, they returned home safely... unlike the unlucky lalafell explorers...

After the recent move to a bigger mansion the Jackals also opened up recruitment for a small number of new members, and to much surprise there was great demand! We had to close up again relatively quickly, but nevertheless we welcome Renaise Galwind, Arai Yoruichi, Fiave Teras and Nhia Nahri to the company!

"Sometimes it is those, whom no one is willing to give a hand, that need it the most.
If not us, who will? And if not now, then when?"

The last few Moons have seen a great deal of change for themembers of Jackal & Hide, first a change in home and now a change in leadership. Having decided to take a backseat in managing the salvaging and other “miscellaneous” jobs, in order to raise their daughter, J’Kilid Tia and J’Inarah Marad have called for two more officers:  Torhe Raanu and Rosamund Hale. A warm welcomeis to be given to the new officers and the two are wished the best of luck! (Currently a book is being run on how long it will take for the new Officers to be driven up the wall. Odds are currently at 2:1)

Meanwhile there were adventures on the high seas to be had,with the Jackals being tasked with raiding a group of pirates in order to liberate a group of slaves and plunder whatever valuables they had on their ship. Though through an act of cephalopodan aggression they had to choose what was more valuable, gold or their fellow Children of Man. Ultimately they chose the noble option of rescuing as many of the slaves as they could before the pirate ship was torn asunder and dragged down into the seas cold embrace. After they had been given a Half-Moon to recover they were sent on another rescue mission in which they found themselves drawing steel against a pack of Primal worshiping Sahagin. To make matters worse, one of their number had been kidnapped by the foul beast tribe and they found themselves racing against time in order to save their comrade, least they join the ranks of the Drowned.

Though that was not all, for the Jackals were also inpursuit of a mysterious individual, the possible orchestrator of a previous job, tracking them from the deserts of Thanalan to the forests of the Black Shroud. They were able to subdue the Mad Miqo’te, only to find that she in turn was a pawn in someone else’s greater scheme and was taken prisoner, much to the chagrin of some of the Jackals, in order to learn more about this unknown puppeteer.
