Aldric Sayrillont

Vons would most likely be one of his camping spots within the highlands, a warm fire among the cold plains, a blanket and a sleeping bag to rest and his supplies at his side, due to living in the war most of his life he has never really escaped that mindset! Despite all the horror that came from it his most focused and strangely happy times for him was when he was out in the wilds hunting down the enemy. I imagine those sorts of memories from his war days would be whats flooding his mental-scape, and a few of the battles that left scarring or trauma on him over the years intermingled in there too!

My Character usually earns his money by mercenary contracts and running his business with his fiance! Character was a veteran of the dragonsong however, so he has some wealth from his home to draw upon from time to time

Pre Storyline Meeting The Iris met up in the meeting room to be told of the situation with the lost garlean weaponry, having one of Ren's crew locked up within the cellar ready for interrogation the group was informed and caught up with the plan to set out on the trail to capture the turncoat and track the breadcrumb trail to find the plunder. Through interrogation they were able to ascertain that despite not knowing the exact location the pirate captain had her ship destroyed , and was last seen on pearl island which was a known garlean outpost on the edge of Othard, with this new information the group planned to move in under the guise of night, and start the trail anon.

This thread will stand as a archive to place our story event recaps and any catchup members will need to know if they join midway through existing plotlines.

For now total battle island is cancelled due to availabity issues, I will update the thread once the tournament goes live once again!

A big thanks to Tess Nocturne for designing the logo! A new poster seems to make itself apparent across the capital cities of the realm, with a shining tribal like logo it clearly states “TOTAL BATTLE ISLAND!” Come one come all! Test your wits against one another in the most furious tournament of strength and magical prowess in the realm! An island just off the coast off la noscea has been turned into a arena of proving for all those who wish it! Come to Costa del sol and gain passage to the island, and fight for the glory and prizes that await you! Not wanting to fight and just wanting to drink the night away whilst watching your close friends and compatriots sparring the night away? WE HAVE YOU! Total Battle Island has partnered with the ravens rose to bring you a stylish bar and cuisine to indulge in at the coastside bar whilst the tournament goes happens! The winner of this prestigious tournament and reigns its champion wins a whopping half a million in prize money! This is not the only reward to be gained from this however… on a monthly basis the tournament will receive special events with even larger and more varied prizes! From fighting over the water, to dodging pumpkins and snowballs… your balance and survival will be put on the line at these special monthly doses of seasonal mayhem! So come down to the coast and fight the night away each friday at 7pm EST, can YOU prevail? The poster would have a picture in the centre of a location, revealing a island just off the coast of costa del sol, and the docks at the mainland that you can use to get a boat over to the location. OOC What is Total Battle Island? The concept of total battle island is a fun beachside tournament with the theme of an over the top parody of reality tv commentary as the fights are going on to add to the entertainment! This will be a weekly tournament and will not only offer a venue for fighting of both magical and physical, but a place for people to come together as the community and enjoy the refreshments and cuisine offered by the in-house IC bar we have open at the same time also! We will also be hosting special themed weeks monthly, of which the competitors will have certain modifiers to adhere to whilst fighting their opponents from wearing swimsuits, to being on a tilting platform in the middle of the ocean! We have a creative palette of ideas to throw at our contestants, and a big dish of prizes to hand to whoever is lucky enough to come out victorious! What times will this be held? This will be held weekly at 7pm EST (11-12pm GMT) every Friday. How does it work? Contestants stand in a line in front of the hosts (Von Sayrillont,S’mikka Nightshade) and on the time introduce themselves by name, after this they are then assigned into their brackets with a referee to look over each individual bracket. Once this has been sorted it resorts to usual grindstone rules, for those who are new to the tournament scene, you both roll for initiative, highest goes first, then the attacker proceeds to emote and then you both roll again, if the attacker rolls higher they get a hit on you and if the defender gets higher they counter, and you take turns until one duelist reaches three hits which is a victory. After that the victor whispers the referee and gets assorted into the next match, this will keep on happening until it goes to the last two people. Are spectators allowed? Of course! We have even went forth to collaborate with the Ravens Rose to provide those who wish to sit on the sidelines with a bar where you can order a variety of food and beverages for your character to partake in whilst they sit down and watch the madness go down, we want to offer a immersive scene for all involved! Can I join the staff? We are always free to take in roles for healers , extra referees, or even bar staff! so if you wish to give your assistance speak to myself (Von Sayrillont), and for bar work contact Aludove Vuinuet Our first tournament will be held on the 23rd March at 7pm EST and go on weekly from then on, we hope to see you all there! Contact Von Sayrillont in game with any questions!

The Dragonsong War has ended, and the role of the dragoons is seemed by many as over... but that is not the case, and whilst one end has set, a new beginning for the dragoon order dawns... What is this? Simply put, i want this to be a linkshell for those who roleplay dragoons to be able to commute and have links within each other, to look for roleplay between those that have served within the war, to the new generation, from teacher to student, and further on! A place where we can find roleplay within each other and also explore the new routes our class can take in both power and duty beyond the climax of the dragonsong war within the events of stormblood! If you wish to join, please contact Von Sayrillont in game!

MAJOR UPDATE!: The Realmsward Initiative has turned from more of a offensive Force, to a support and charitable organisation that provides defensive , supplimental, and offensive support to companies and larger movements.
