[align=justify]Personal Profile Character Name: J'kilid Tia Gender: Male Race: Seeker of the Sun Domestic Profile Civil Status: Citizen Place of Residence: Limsa Lominsa (The Drowning Wench) Occupation: Honest Businessman. (He swears!) Free Company: Jackal & Hide Social Profile Having followed Inarah after her departure from the tribe, Kilid's an even more recent arrival to Limsa. Quick to adapt to new situations, he's developed the outgoing air of someone who's all smiles and easy (awful) jokes. Occasionally seen entering the Marauders guild, he's oft in the outskirts of La Noscea, putting paid to known threats from the wildlife. More often, however, he's to be seen at Inarah's side as she carries oddly-shaped parcels to their recipients, or escorting merchants. Easy to grin, whether it be a genuine jovial gesture, or the baring of too many teeth, Kilid has no issue slipping between the more common social circles of Limsa. Meta Profile If Inarah is the brains of Jackal & Hide, Kilid's currently what passes for brawns. It's not advised to shrug him off as a mindless oversized muscle, mind! (Those eyes are very, very sharp) While he isn't averse to the odd dubiously legitimate deal or fluid property repossession, his moral compass won't stand for Jackal & Hide stepping into the darker shadows of work. Innocents remain unharmed, friends often receive the benefits of his work, and company clients remain fiercely protected. Still, a man's gotta get by, right? [/align]

*Cheer* Looking forward to seeing and serving folks there! Dress code is... anything goes! Whatever you're comfy in. *Jackal & Hide advise against anything that's liable to trap and/or fill up with sand and/or water and/or excessive spillage of alcoholic beverages for comfort, hygeine and smell-based reasons. But if you wanna party hard in a suit of full plate, we understand. Trés... (•_•) ( •_•)>⌐■-■ (⌐■_■) 'Metal'

If an order was ICly placed, sure. However, being the slightly poor bloke that he already is, he's not wont to take many risks, and likely won't carry about a sack of supplies. He'll be visiting company estates soon enough, as well. Gotcha! Well, there's plenty of other ways to interact. Would you be amenable to a whispered chat somewhen during the week about potential future RP?

Would he, uhh... would he be in the market for, say, buying/trading goods, down the line, perchance? Honestly acquired goods, fresh-picked with morning dew goodness?

Aha~! Thought so. That puts your free time rather neatly alongside that of ours, from across the pond, I think? Odds are, we shall see you about IG sometime!

*Wave* Hey there! First, welcome back to FFIXV and the RPC Yay, more roleplayers! Would I be correct in guessing that those are some somewhat EU-friendly times, too? (A lot of guessing here, sorry! ) If so, there's always a pretty active EU-based community to keep you company, IG! Sastra's comped a list of the current active EU FCs and LS' here http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=9233 if so. Also, if you're in possession of a more... mmm... 'morally fluid' character, ICly, Jackal & Hide are open and seeking new blood. Again, welcome back! We have ninja's, now

Well this is a pretty damn cool thread Took forever to find suitable LBs for Kilid, though. LB level 1: Montage, aka "Hearts on Fire" gqwuYX3fZZc Inspiration up! Def. up! Atk. up! EVERYTHING UP! The power of Montage compels you! LB level 2: Man of steel, aka "Strong desire" FLN3dPMyXeg For when inspirational montages just don't cut it. Yeah, I know, I didn't think things could ever get that bad, either. LB level 3: The Best Defense, aka "Rages deep within" bJsRAcAhnNw DECAPITATIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON

Hello and welcome, but also yay, another NWN player! I was on PWs in NWN too although that's going back quite a few years now. Hope you enjoy your time on Balmung. Holy St. Cowabunga, nostalgia trip Which server(s)? And what Inarah said - welcome to Balmung! Mebbe we'll see you about, sometime.

Jackal & Hide are pleased to report that our first event... is complete! There was intrigue! There was (an acceptable amount of) drama! More importantly, there was the beginnings of the FCs overarching plot, the threads of which will be weaved in and out of future events by our spider queen resident storyteller, Inarah! (Secretly, she enjoys making us dance. Given how tonight's story was told, I think being a puppet in this could be quite fun). Tl;dr, it was a fun small-scale, intimate story event, and this tale shall continue to be told week after week until its conclusion, whereupon something else shall take its place. Hope to see some of you there! And I believe I promised you all screenshots? Kilid don't go back on his promises! So, here y'all go! 11 of the finest from tonights crop of 130: http://imgur.com/a/75v0G

May 4th: The Force is strong with this day. Edit: May 5th: Servers crash.

I. Basic Info Characters: J'kilid Tia Linkshells: Europa, Smokescreen Free Company: Jackal & Hide II. RP Style Amount of RP (light, medium, heavy): Heavy Views on RP combat and injuries: On the whole, emotes are preferred but I understand full well how some people distrust strangers. As such, rolls are acceptable, at a push. Injuries are fine if they make sense, but loss of limbs through to death? That requires an OOC discussion first. Views on IC romance: If it makes sense between two characters, then it makes sense. What more can be said? Views on non-romantic RP (family ties, etc): See above, really. Jackal tribe members from upper La Noscea, yell if you want to discuss the possibilities of being from the same tribe. Views on lore: I abide by it wherever possible. However, given how spotty canon lore is in places, I'm happy to fall back to commonly accepted fanon, and then common sense if even that fails. Views on chat functions (/say, /linkshell, etc): /s and /em are, 99% of the times, used for IC functions. If there's too much chatscroll, then I'll fall back to /p. IC linkshells, too! III. Other Info Country: UK Timezone: GMT Contact info: Forum PMs, IG whispers, and Skype, via "cat.o.war". Look for Kilid, obviously! [align=center][glow=blue]~Special announcements can be found in the posts below~[/glow][/align]

Jackal & Hide will be hosting its first event tomorrow evening! Will it be small intimate? Yes! Will it be fun? Hopefully Damn right. Will it have lots of screenshots? PrtSc key already weeps in horror. So what exactly are we doing then? I'm glad you asked! We'll be taking a leisurely walk through the bustling city of Limsa Lominsa, with perhaps a jaunt along the picturesque coastline of Lower La Noscea, and see what we find. What, you think we're looking for something in particular? I d-don't know where you got that impression, haha, how ludicrous!... Anyway, meet us at the Drowning Wench at 19:30 GMT if you'd like to tag along and watch the sunset with us...yes, sunset, that sounds innocent enough... What this actually marks is the first of what we're hoping to be a weekly FC event for members and anyone curious about Jackal and Hide, occasionally sprinkled with larger open and/or cross-FC events once we've gained some steam.

Same here. I'm not even interested in a personal house; I only want to get something for our company. We've been scraping together every penny and nearly have enough for a plot but is there even any point? Sorry if that sounds melodramatic, I was just excited about getting a house... It's not melodramatic, I that sentiment. It's... frustrating, that this is the situation they've gotten into when housing is such a standard feature in modern MMOs these days. I mean, nice that they've tried, and what they have is nice, but only if you have one. Feels a little like they've missed the mark here.

Jovial protector

Ladies and gentlemen. The man, the legend, Inarah's partner-in-crime. Kilid. He needed a nice, hi-def screenie, and this seemed the perfect place to show off

Welcome to the RPC, and Balmung in particular! Enjoy your stay, try the fish, and remember to tip your waitress. Hope to see you about! And if you decide to start looking for a home for Zack, there's a list of EU-based FC's compiled by Sastra, here: http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=9233

Huzzah, and three cheers! Welcome to Balmung, may your stay here be interesting and exciting, and filled with more people throwing confetti! It's always nice to see more people from this neck of the worldwood join, hope to see you about Eorzea!

Precisely that~ And, if they grew up in a way that led them to worship a different deity, no-one can pick on that either. Well... except fanatics. Anyway, yay! Can't go wrong with more medics RPing on the server. Edit: Yeah, everyone got there first

Howdy, and welcome to Balmung! I see your questions have already been answered pretty darn well, so I'll just leave you with this that explains the logic behind the naming (kinda) and what each tribe letter means. (Again... kinda). I'm sure someone can provide a more in-depth meaning behind each of the clan letters! (I'd be interested in seeing that myself, actually.) For EU-based Free Companies, Sastra has compiled a list of your current timezone-friendly options here: http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=9233 You say you're a transfer character, does this mean Z'leilan Yelho has a backstory already? Tell us more about her~! Please. Anyway, hope to see you around Eorzea!

This is a really rather great idea, bringing together a splintered/fractured playerbase. I'm surprised no-one thought of it sooner, actually - Kudos (And a +rep) to you! :DAnd thanks for putting Jackal & Hide up there. Hopefully, those of us in the EU will find it a bit easier to find a home, now. And... to keep the theme going, I guess. Main Character's Name: J'kilid Tia Brief Description: Jackal & Hide co-founder. Wiki page in progress Usually Online: After 18:00 GMT Intensity: Dark, handsome, broodi-... oh, right. Heavy. Occasionally, borderline para-RP. Not often, but... yeah.

Just a little something snapped during a small RP event with Inarah and Kilid!

[align=center] [/align] Introduction Jackal & Hide are a neutral-aligned free company on the FFXIV:ARR server of Balmung. We're a tightly knit group of outcasts and oddballs, with engaging roleplay, a friendly atmosphere and plenty of fun for all involved. As most of our members are based in Europe, all of our events and our peak times for activity are in EU time zones. Background The company was founded by J'kilid Tia and J'inarah Marad, outcasts from a Jackal tribe in the wilds of La Noscea. Combining Kilid's brute strength and Inarah's guile, they created a security company based near Limsa Lominsa. Although incepted with scarcely more than two coins to rub together, the fledgling venture soon found success and expanded into a proper outfit. Their eclectic crew have a wide variety of talents and their own unique goals but the success of the company (or "pack", as Kilid and Inarah oft call it) as a whole binds them together. From sellswords to scholars, physicians to pickpockets and artisans to accountants, they live and work as a team. Though there may be friction from time to time, at the end of each long day, the pack stands together. What We Do Our headquarters are in the Mists, Ward 12, Plot 35 and ostensibly operating as Sunny Seas Salvage, where we buy and sell all manner of merchandise. Having a word with the right person, however, will uncover the full spectrum of services on offer. We run the gamut from simple caravan escorts and body guarding to espionage, smuggling and outright theft. Whilst our morals are perhaps a bit fluid, our intentions are not malicious and we never engage in work that exploits or harms innocent people. We also run a monthly seaside bar at Costa del Sol, both to generate some additional income and negotiate with prospective employees and clients. How We RP Most of our contracts are played out from within the company by either creating throwaway NPCs or (gasp) using our imagination. We weave an overarching plotline through our events to provide a cohesive purpose, foster individual character development and, let's face it, bring some intrigue and excitement! Although company leaders arrange these plotline events, we encourage members to take initiative and host their own events as well. We aim to run our events in the open world rather than private areas whenever possible so outsiders can jump in if they so desire. If you see us out and about, feel free to introduce yourself and join the fun. The Jackals may seem a bit eccentric but we're a welcoming bunch! We're open to working with other companies for cross-FC RP as well so, by all means, speak with Kilid or Inarah if you have need of our services.
