The-Penman

Hello everyone! We've recently made a new and improved update to the Carrd as well as generalized the Ward's purpose (just a little). Check out the new link in the original post for further details. As well - Please note that Discord can sometimes be weird about private messages. I have my account set to receive messages from anyone in mutual servers - and I can be found in the Mateus RP Hub and the Crystal RP Hub servers. If you aren't in either server and wish to message me, please send me a friend request first. That should allow us to message one another. Thank you.

Good morning folks o/ The Ward is still open for recruitment! We have a new battle-system based off FATE Accel now in beta - weekly scheduled events and a slowly growing, active community. The Carrd has a new secret now check it out, see if you can find the secret.

Updated Carrd and info! New theme taken on.

Hello everyone! With some recent story developments, the Ward has taken on a new purpose. View the original post for changes!

Good Afternoon Everyone! The Ward is still recruiting new members to join the FC and the Network. Carrd has recently been updated. In addition, we have a new store page as well! Looking for new contacts for your character? Or perhaps need a means to prepare for upcoming story-beats and events? The Ward provides fantastical goods and services, with lore friendly(?) write-ups and commissions that you can take home with you. Message us to schedule some casual, productive RP, or come by during our Open House Production Floor to make friends with other Ward members and other members of the community! https://wardstorefront.carrd.co/

Hello everyone! We have made a couple of additional changes to FC structure to help promote activity and collaboration. Details are listed in the Carrd! New: Levemate Board Opting for a more fluid and easy to engage method of story-telling and collaboration, we are moving away from the Venture Room/ Day Action system to utilize a Levemate Board instead. These are posted events/scenes that folks coordinate days to engage in either in game or Discord. There are three types of Leves. Ward Leves: General missions posted by Garrett or a manager of the Ward. Standard jobs that are easy to complete, and completion of said jobs would earn the FC "Credits" towards Venture Leves; while at the same time immersing participants in the company vibe. Venture Leves: These are bigger jobs that are unlocked with enough Company Credits, that advance the overarching narrative of the free company. Storyline Events essentially. Network Leves: Events/Scenes posted up by other members of the Discord! Ward Members, Contractors, and Contacts are free to post up a Leve if they're in the mood to collaborate, run an event, or need a scene for their character development. Cheers!

We are the Line. About Us To the Eorzean Alliance and the public at large, Byregot's Ward is known primarily as a free company of artisans, traders, and contractors whom serve a wide array of clientele. To most, the Ward is a for-profit that seeks to improve Eorzean lives through their goods and services. Behind its mercantile front, however, lies a group of informants, scholars, and hunters dedicated to safeguarding their countrymen, and combating the malefic. They would secure the annals of history from the abuse of magic, science, and power; and eliminate those who would threaten the sovereignty of nations.

I was curious how many Gunbreaker RPers there were in comparison to Paladin. I feel like since the expansion there has been a huge increase in the number of Gunbreakers running around.

I don't think it's updated for Shadowbringers quite yet, but here is this! FFXIV x D&D Companion Guide

Hello everyone! Getting back into the game and have recently finished current story content. I wanted to try and join/ make a group of friends to start RPing again and/or doing other content. I wanted to check and see if there are a lot of people in the RP community who would be interested in playing FF 5e? Beyond Tabletop seems like an easy medium to do this in and as an old DM I have a creative itch that needs scratching. (Note this is not an active recruiting thread for anything- just wanted to see if there are other like-minded players who're familiar with D&D before committing to anything, and maybe make some friends on Mateus along the way).

Hey everyone. I am building up a new character on Mateus (Male Keeper), and am looking forward to roleplaying. I thought about making someone who was very into magic but... eeeh? I miss Tanking too much and I've never been much of a healer. So I had an idea to make someone similar to a Hexblade Warlock from D&D, minus a patron; Someone of a half martial skillset/ half into thaumaturgy/conjury to enhance that martial prowess. My question is: How feasible would this be in the world of FFXIV?

Sort of. Just wasn't sure who really was actively recruiting. If a sweep happened though then I can take a second look.

Hey everybody. I'm getting back into the swing of things in FF and I was hopefully looking to find a new FC or Linkshell willing to take on a character following the warrior-poet trope with a side hobby for carpentry/metalworking?

This is actually interesting. It so happens that I was leaning more towards Rowan being a Darkstalker/ Void Hunter type character. I'll check it out.

Like the title says... I'm just looking for a easy going RP Linkshell or Free Company that is currently recruiting, that isn't very strict with attendance and is willing to have a Neutral Good character that is currently a WIP. PM me here or in-game if anyone has any openings (In-game name is simply Rowan Cross).

One of the big things that FFXIV is known for is the sheer amount of content cramped into it's game. I have to say, out of all the other games I have played in the past, FFXIV is comparable to open world Bethesda games like Skyrim. One of the design decisions Square Enix has made for this game however, is that a lot of said content is locked behind specific quests- which has a lot of pros but also has some cons as well. One of them I'm finding to be is that I find myself as a player spending more time PvEing in an attempt to unlock everything I can in the game, and am spending little time at all engaging in roleplaying. I was curious about your guys' opinions on what is a happy median between engaging in roleplay and progressing in the game itself? Do you only participate in RP events as they come up? Do you mainly stick with RP partners? Or maybe set a specific day in a week that is dedicated to RP only?

That was fun to sit and watch! Thank you guys very much.

I didn't even know people had set Fate here in FF! I've been wanting to get into Fate games for a long time and even made all sorts of templates for it, but I've never been able to find anyone to play. I might not be able to join any soon, but I would love to eventually. Here, for anyone who'd like to use these in the future, by all means feel free to! Blank Fate C-Sheet Blank Fate G-Sheet I'll gladly post these in other places too if anyone wants.
