Thanks for all this information. I am getting a sense of just how I need to approach this situation. Especially all the lore excerpts, its helping me form the background and reasoning of this character.

So i have this idea of a voidhunter, who spends his/her time hunting down voidsent and voidtouched. So I have a few questions as the information is scant; first off can it be purged without actually killing someone who was voidtouched for instance. Secondly, is that a feasible "occupation" lorewise? I am still working on the backstory, but if the very base idea is not workable, then it isn't worth it. Basic backstory I am working on goes something along the lines of a wife/husband became voidtouched, and my character slowly watched this person disintegrate until they were completely lost and had to be killed. This grief and sadness fuels my character to find and "help" these tainted souls or end the existence of these dark creatures. for a bare bones, does that work lorewise? any help would be appreciated.

So first, hi, and i'm glad I managed to stumble upon this place. I have been playing FFXIV since 1.0 beta, quit for a few months, then came back. I have been Roleplaying for over 20 years now (wow) since yahoo chat in places like Ayenee, Everquest etc. I love to RP and find it relaxing and fun to read the simple day in the life stories or the epic stories of love and loss, triumph or failure. it's all fun to me. I hope to contribute to the RP community as a whole ( I used to RP but it was mostly private with a few friends) and I figure this is the best place to get acquainted with the community. So again thanks for having me and I look forward to RPing with you!

Hmm I just updated it... Perhaps I did it wrong. Well yes in game you can look for Elspath, she's ALWAYS on, or Valia Londshadow, Averne, Sivamet, Kailisto Nadare. Any of these people can give you an invite. I'd begin with Elspath then go to Valia if she for some strange reason is not on. And no we RP and are active as a Linkshell and becoming active as a Free company. The Linkshell is the tavern, as such we are in a position to have many people join it who just wish to rp in a tavern and inn environment with a small twist heh.

Yes both are not as active as they need to be, because I do not enforce any rules of necessity to post on the forums. For me, the forums are a place to go to, to help expand your in game stories, or write stories you don't deem need to happen in game or expand on something already going on. As such some days it'll get used, some days it won't BUT I can say our linkshell has a nice number of people who are active, helpful and roleplaying.

With the server issues happening it will be tough to find me and others, but rest assured we are out there looking to give out RP linkshells to the tavern and inn to whomever wishes to have one. Also look for Elspath, she is always on as well, or Sivamet Kedin

Yes heh I figure everyone will need a week or two to get used to things and do some exploration before they are ready to begin roleplaying in earnest. But in case anyone isn't we'll be roleplaying from day one.

Yes we will have big locations, we'll give it a good week so people can get acquainted.

I am so glad to see people interested in the roleplay in the tavern! We will hand out link pearls to anyone who is interested in roleplaying in a tavern environment and I will also begin a tavern thread here soon, so stay tuned!

Well that's the best thing about a LS and free company. So anyone who wants to just hang in the tavern is MORE than welcome to to get Linkshell invite, I'll be handing those pearls out to all roleplayers and it'll be an active linkshell. And yes a cook would be great! As would strange mages wandering in and out lol

Ha come on by mages, yes the core group is definitely looking for member BUT it is a tavern, and as such the linkshell will be available for anyone who wants to roleplay.

(ooh very, VERY good story, i enjoy it very much keep it coming!)

Generally around 7ish central or so.

You come out of the forest into a grassy clearing where the grass grew high around what was a seemingly vacant building. It appeared as if nature had slowly began to reclaim it from those who once occupied it; from the vines which grew all along the building, to the cobwebs in the windows and doorways, but there was something strange that just didn't sit right with you... There were no sounds of insects, no whistling wind or even the howling of animals, the only thing you heard were the caws of ravens which seemed to continually circle the vacant inn, as if waiting for something to return... As you approach the door you reach out to open it, but before you do it opens on it's own and revealed a dusty foyer that obviously once had been far grander. Your heart began to beat as you felt something had been watching you from the shadows of the darkened room, but upon turning to look you saw nothing but shadows... Perhaps the shadows played tricks on you? You see there are two hallways, one on each side of what obviously was some kind of inn welcome table, complete with ledger. One hallway seems far darker than the other even though there is no light in either hall. Deciding to avoid thatparticular hallway you walk down the hall on the right, and come into what was once a bar, but is now in disrepair. As you step into the room the floor creaks beneath you, and you gasp as you see a lone figure sitting at table in the far corner. Your eyes squint as you try to make out what it is, but all you can see is the outline of a cloak. Then it hits you... "Ka..Kailisto?!" The figure holds it head up and the feline eyes shine back what little light there was in the room. You gasp as you stumbled backwards completely unprepared for this. Not wasting any time you turn and run, as fast as you can. There is the door, salvation is right within reach! You grab the handle and push the door open to see the full moon now shining overhead and the ravens still circling. But something's wrong... Your body is overcome with dread and fear and you freeze in place. "Welcome to the Raven's Eye friend. I oweyou a debt of gratitude for awakening me after five years, so allow me to repay you in kind..." Your screams are allthat are left of you as the door closes sharply... Three months later.. A bustling inn and tavern, the Raven's Eye, isfilled with adventurers, soldiers, mercenaries and sages tonight, all enjoying their time relaxing and drinking, sharing stories and getting work from the bulletin. Sitting at a table in the back are two women, one in the leathers of a archer, the other in a black cloak. "Well Kai, everything seems to be back up andrunning... what are your plans now dear?" Kailisto smirked and drummed her fingers on the table, then turned her gaze to the woman. "Oh my dear Inoxia, I have many plans, The Raven's Eye seems to still hold onto its secrets, the lands themselves have been twisted, changed drastically.. so there is much to do... But for now, let us enjoy our return to this world hmm?" Inoxia nodded and would look out across the tavern to the fresh new faces and then to Kailisto as slowly, a thin grin begins to spread along her face. Welcome to the Raven's Eye Inn...

So what is the Raven's Eye Inn? Good question: OOCly it is a group of roleplayers who wish to have fun with other adults in a laid back roleplaying guild which will do quests, dungeons and even raids from time to time, but first and foremost will be all about roleplaying your character in a mature (or immature if that's your character) manner. IC: There are many forces in this world, some dark, others light. But all these forces have one thing in common, they are wild, untamed and best of all waiting to be discovered. The Raven's Eye Inn and Tavern was established by Kailisto and Inoxia Nadare as a place where adventurers and mercenaries could find work, soldiers find rumors, and powerful items and scholars could gather. Kailisto herself uses her tavern to find powerful warriors, scholars, mages and tacticians who can help her discover the deep and dark magics of the land, and to help her break into and discover the power of the Raven's Eye, a relic from a long forgotten era, and to break a curse she will not share lightly. But they would not get many jobs if the general populace knew this information, so Kailisto also organizes research and exploration missions which garner the Raven's Eye a cautious yet respected reputation for getting the job done and finding information and items which do not wish to be found, or have been lost to time. So what is this “Raven's Eye” and what is this curse?Well after running many guilds, I learned something important, even seasoned Roleplayers wish to have a overreaching story, or theme running through the guild, something to feed off of, and that's what both of these are. The Raven's Eye is an ancient relic which is housed deep inside the Inn, if you wish to know more you have to roleplay heheheh. And the curse takes different forms depending on the person, so it gives you a chance to add a flaw to your character if you choose. How does your character fit in?: Another good question! Well anyway you like! You can be a normal barmaid/ mechanic or a mercenary. You can also be cursed like the tavern's main theme and looking for a way to break it, or you can be a knowledge seeker. Basically we have no restrictions. Who is the leadership? The guild leader is Kailisto Nadare and her partner Inoxia Nadare, but they play a background role to others who wish to be the face of the Inn, like Valia. There are also several officers who will introduce themselves in this thread later. Any rules? Well yes, here are the rules and regulations: So now comes the not so fun part, the rules and regulations. You'll find we do not have very many here, most are basically common sense such as no god modding, no drama ooc, and respect officers and the leader of course as well as your fellow guild mates. If you have a disagreement and can't solve it yourself, ask an officer of myself, the Guild leader. Because we are laid back and like to have fun, and we can't have fun with tons of ooc drama and stupidity. If you engage in it purposely and are a constant in causing it then we'll boot you. Fair? Fair. Also ask permission before using anyone's character in roleplay or their NPCS. It's the polite thing to do. We also expect our members to roleplay! I know it's a shocker, but actually roleplay your character in say when you can and if it makes sense. You don't HAVE to always be in character, but it helps foster roleplay if you are. And that's it! Positions? Well the cover positions are the usual positions inside of a inn and tavern such as bard, barmaid, innkeeper, maintenance and repair, stable handler, security, or if you have an idea I am more than welcome to discuss it with you! And yes we do have the “real guild” which is where the scholars and researchers, warriors and retrievers come in, if you have an idea again you can discuss it with me. Dualistic? What's that? Well simply put, I believe the Linkshell is a great communication tool to use for people who wish to visit the tavern or inn, but not join the actual guild, and that's what it will be used for. Interested? Questions? Good!Come to our website http://www.guildportal.com/Guild.aspx?GuildID=482658&TabID=4159760, or simply send me a message, Sivamet or Inoxia a message on these forums.
