The past month has been full of adventure, intrigue and revelry alike. On the more lighthearted side of life, we've seen another Sunny Seaside Bar, bringing performances by myriad bards to our lovely patrons. We also proved that Jackals can indeed wash up, dress nice and even behave in a civilised manner at the Wine and Dine Festival. [align=center][/align] Amidst copious drinks at our weekly meetings at the Missing Member and odd jobs here and there, we set another company plotline into play. Tasked with delivering a package to Coerthas, it soon became apparent it was a trap. We escaped with our lives and hunted down the client who hired us. The trail led to a tiny village deep in the Shroud, where darkness lurked behind smiling faces. The mystery continues... [align=center][/align] Still enjoying the rest of the game's content, we've also been busy crafting, gathering, grinding for relics and much more. Some of us challenged King Thordan to the Extreme and walked away victorious! [align=center] (Left to right: Ludivine, Inarah, Oyuu, Thya, Torhe, Kheja, Silvaire and Locke)[/align] In the meantime, we had an influx of new additions to our band of misfits and welcomed aboard: Rhalkr Thraikund, J'takra Tia, Oyuu Dataq, Kovu Simochi, Misuzu Misu, Syngiberk Doenimohl, Surennai and Kokei Himaa, Mauh'a Relanah, W'gahr Lupercal, Alia Naveleal, Illyriel Otonashi, Eowale Dotharl, Reinhardt Ironhand, R'khei Tia, Nailah Quill, L'dhala Nunh, June Barlokov and Viggo Stormstar! If you're thinking, "Bloody hells, that's a shiteload of folks," you'd be damn right. That's why, in order to maintain harmony and ensure the new recruits mesh well with the rest of the pack, we're closing recruitment for the foreseeable future. Don't you worry, though; we'll make an announcement when we open our doors again. That's all from the Jackals for now. Azeyma smile on you!

The next bar is 16 April 2016 at 7 pm BST/2 pm EDT! We’ll be having the usual food and drink on our menu as shown above, and performances by Savo Kesslivang. If any other bards, storytellers and the like want to take to the stage, see here for details on the performance venue.

Yes, come see us! I (Quri) am preparing plenty of risqué tunes for the evening.

Quri Ayaala will perform once again!

Waaaaaay too much RP the past couple weeks to post them all, but here's a sampling. [align=center]Hunting bombs in the desert. Salvaging a shipwreck in Noscea. Delivery in Coerthas gone wrong. Wine and dine in the Goblet. Meeting new crew members and welcoming back old. [/align]

Of course, by all means!

I was told you escaped our bouncers by slipping out of your clothes hahaha! Anyway, thank you all so much for coming! We had a fantastic time and hope you did too. We were delighted to see such a wonderful turnout! Congratulations to Andromeda Dulaque for winning the cake decorating contest with her vineyard-themed creation! However, she had very stiff competition indeed from Yzaba Il'qestir, who decorated a stunning Hatching-tide cake. Congratulations also to Mika Nel, who won first prize in the drinks mixing contest with his entry, the White Ishgardian! He had a close win too, followed right behind by Rheya Tayuun with her Beggar’s Banquet. Finally, big thanks to the wonderful people in the Kindred and our Jackals, all of whom worked very hard this evening. You did a great job! Kilid took a huge amount of screenshots - full album here - but here's a few I picked out:

Don't know your Bacchus from a Cedarmill Red? Let Nailah Quill educate you on the nuances of a variety of wines brought in from all round Eorzea. 21.00: Downstairs in the bar, the Cake Decorating Contest and Kebab Class will start. Speak with J'inarah Marad to try your hand at decorating a cake; best (emoted description) decoration wins an Onion Prince minion to call their own. Meanwhile, Fejika Menajika can show those with more savoury tastes how to craft the perfect kebab. 21:45: What better way to satisfy your appetite than a good old fashioned Hog Roast? Bert Brewforge will roast a succulent hog over the open fire outside the Kindred estate for all to enjoy. Meanwhile, Quinthel Moranguin will challenge guests to the Pudding Walk. Balance a plate bearing a pudding through a set path (/random above a threshold several times); if you succeed, you get to eat the pudding! 22.30: As the evening draws to a close, it's time to get a little crazy. Join W'gahr Lupercal for a Drinks Mixing Contest that'll be sure to knock you out! Creator of the best drink wins an adorable piece of furniture crafted by Nailah. [align=center]Menu[/align] Should you need a drink or a bite to eat during the night, head down to the bar, where our staff will be happy to offer you something from our menu. All recipes prepared by Quinthel Moranguin unless otherwise stated.

Hello and welcome!

Sorry for the delay in posting but thank you all again for coming this month. We had some wonderful performances from Raeje Draeka, F'iara Aselk and of course Savo Kesslivang! Huge thanks to you three for entertaining all of our lovely guests. Speaking of Savo, we're changing our main poster to the gorgeous one she's drawn for us! Thank you so, so much Savo; we're really touched. [align=center][/align] Kilid took plenty of screenshots from the evening so, without further ado, enjoy:

We open again tonight at 7 pm GMT/2 pm EST and will be opening the lower deck for bards to perform at 8 pm/2 pm!

Ooo! 11 pm on a Friday, I think I can make this! Sounds like fun.

Hello and welcome! You might want to check out the European Directory.

I had a great time! The atmosphere was engaging and energetic, and the chemistry between you two really made it. Songs were amazing, as usual! So sorry I had to leave early but bed was calling. If you do this again, I'm so there! [align=center] Two bards and their captivated crowd.[/align]

Just a little reminder that our first bar-cum-performance night is this Saturday! We have a few bards lined up, including the fabulous Savo Kesslivang, but welcome any others who'd be interested.

Hello and welcome!

Ah, thank you Aya! They can be purchased ICly either by visiting our shop in the Mist (Ward 8, Plot 55) or asking at the next Sunny Seaside Bar.

We've been able to raise a substantial amount of gil from the sales of the Jackalendar! Enough, in fact, that we were able to purchase clothing, food and other necessities and deliver those to refugees struggling to survive outside of Ul'dah. We'd like to thank you all for donating to the Sunny Futures Fund and, in turn, helping those in need across Eorzea. [align=center] [/align]

Hello and welcome!

[align=center] The Second Eorzean Wine and Dine Festival! A collaboration between Jackal & Hide and the Kindred.[/align] Last year, we held the first Eorzean Wine and Dine Festival with the Kindred. We're doing it again this year and hope to see a collection of both old and new faces! Starting at 8 pm GMT/4 pm EST, 26 March 2016, and being graciously hosted by the Kindred at their home in the Goblet at Ward 4, Plot 11, an evening of fine food and drink await! Whilst we're still ironing out the timetable for the night's entertainment (and will update accordingly once finalised), what we can promise is: Wine Tasting provided by Nailah Quill Drinks Mixing Contest provided by W'gahr Lupercal Cake Decorating Contest provided by J'inarah Marad Hog Roast provided by Bert Brewforge Kebab Class provided by Fejika Menajika And much more, including a full menu, to be confirmed. Security for the evening will be provided by a combination of Jackal and Kin forces, to keep those who, ahem, greatly enjoy their libations in check. Please also note that weapons must be checked into the Kindred's storage upon arrival, as we don't want any unfortunate mishaps. Hope to see you all there! Jackal & Hide and the Kindred

Quri Ayaala will be there again!

Hello and welcome! Check out the European Directory if you're looking to meet more EU players.

Last week in Eorzea... [align=center]Jackals clearing Midas! Attempting to rescue a friend from the void. Salvaging booty from a pack of kobolds. Witnessing Ivory and Kheja'a's Eternal Bonding. And sharing a few (okay a lot of) drinks with the Kindred. Bonus: Quri being purty in Bronze Lake. [/align]
