I play a Xaela* who is the shaman of her tribe. I could offer her if needed. ♥ *as an aside, I use the raen model for her, because she's albino

♥ Activity bump. Still going strong and active. A lot of the information here is going to be updated shortly with all sorts of new information. ♥

I have to agree with the post above me! This was incredibly well done and very enjoyable. The words were taken from my fingertips. So all I can do is express my gratitude and appreciation. Amazing, amazing job! ♥

The Midnight Pearl will be debuting our re-opening of Pearl Appeal at the Free Company Festival. During this time, we will be selling our classic, Rhotano pearls. The Rhotano pearl is either white or cream in body color and typically has a rose, cream, or ivory overtone. Characters will be able to purchase their preferred shade, size, and amount. As a one time only sale, the Midnight Pearl’s debut will be selling pearls half off their original price. Pearls will be sold from 5,000 - 100,000 depending on their size, color, and amount. Please come out and show your support of the festival and maybe purchase a pretty pearl for yourself! ♥ ** The Midnight Pearl implements a 1:100 ratio. 100 gil = $1. We would like to request for purchases dealing with the Midnight Pearl that this translation is respected. All purchases are in character and there will be no exchange of real gil unless the player would like to donate.

♥ Always taking charitable women. ♥

As the event closes down, I want to give a few very special thanks yous: First, to the Harbingers of Dawn. You provided us with guards and a space to use. I'm eternally grateful. ♥ Second, I would like to thank the performers of the Gilded Pony: Waltz Concerto, W'aelwyn Turrel, and Rowan Eldred for your participation tonight. ♥ Third, to those who signed up as bakers: Odile Delacroix, Munkhsaran Dotharl, and Amachi Dainteru this couldn't have been done without you. ♥ Lastly, I want to give a HUGE shoutout to everyone who donated tonight: Cotota Qestir, Arasi Shimeyaka, Waltz Concerto, Vakliar Akumala, Raisan Arcmantle, and Blake Forester! ♥ Your donations made this event a HUGE success! We raised 650,000 gil tonight! Yay for the orphans! As the first event of the Lilac Lace Society we look forward to hosting more. With all of our hearts, thank you to everyone who came and supported us tonight. ♥ xox

Will do! Just message myself or Lililove (if you haven't already) to let us know what talent you'll be performing!

Still have all sorts of spots available for people. ♥

I will take this moment to address a question I feel will come up: All donations made are in character. We expect you to know your character's wealth limit. ♥ Any donations that are received out of character will go towards getting Lilac Lace a small house to conduct their business. I have gone ahead and updated the second post to reflect the dinner menu! ♥

As not everyone has access to funds or has leveled through CUL, we leave the choice to provide an item completely up to the baker. All we ask for is a description sent to myself or Lililove, alongside your character's name or alias, so that we can detail the item during the auction. ♥

[align=center][/align] History It all began during the turn that the Scholar watched over the land. To some, He brought His wisdom with him. For others, He granted them the strength to be the river to shape their new world. Others? Well, they paid little mind to the silent Twelve. It was the time of festivity during the Lover's moon. Little Ladies' Day had come once more and with it brought inspiration. Despite the dressed up city streets, strife still lingered after the Calamity. War waged on borders and shores alike, there was unease both in the North and South, and darkness lurked in every corner of the realm. Pain was not so easily forgotten. Yet, in times of struggle, you will always find those who are willing to help. You will always find those who bring smiles to frowns, who nurture and tend, who care and guide. When better than to develop an organization so matronly than during the time of women? When better than to develop an organization founded upon love, than during the Lover's moon? And, of course, when would be a better time to develop an organization than when you had the wisdom of the Scholar watching over you? We all make a choice. The Lilac Lace Society chose hope. Will you? [align=center]❀ ✿ ❀[/align] [align=left]Information [align=left]The Lilac Lace Society (LLS) is a woman only organization founded on benevolence and is dedicated towards charity.
