Erimmont Chevalier

[align=center]A small bump to inform everyone that this event is still planned in the next few hours, [/align] [align=center]along with a small disclaimer.[/align] [align=center]While we are offering your usual delicacies and the like, the Artifice has also sectioned off a small amount of various treats in a 'special' toast to the daring.[/align] [align=center]Said treats have had a little something special added by our members. [/align] [align=center]For those looking to chance their luck, merely mention the 'Risque' section to Lady Caelenn Mhlar.[/align] [align=center]OOC Note:[/align] [align=center]Please note that while the effects of the aforementioned 'risque' offerings are entirely harmless and should you not enjoy the effect, you are welcome to negotiate such and won't be faulted for it in the least. [/align] [align=center]After all, we're all here to have fun. [/align] [align=center]We just like to add a little twist.[/align]

[align=center][/align] [align=center]The Artifice of Reason will be holding a 'grand opening' of sorts with our first ever public event.[/align] [align=center]As a show of good faith between those within the Artifice and those of the community, we will be hosting a large sale of culinary goods from our very own researchers. After all, while we pride ourselves on our brilliant minds, we love a fine meal just as much as anyone else.[/align] [align=center]You're welcome to show up solo or with friends to meet and greet our members while they look to impress with their idea of 'home cooking'. What better way to learn about the Artifice and what we do?[/align] [align=center]While we intend for our members to supply the food, know that beverages both alcoholic and otherwise will be made available by the hands of one Abrenard Rondelet, our trusted supplier. [/align] [align=center]Exotic northern teas of Ishgard will featured.[/align] [align=center]You can find the Artifice of Reason in the 7th ward of the Goblet on plot 13.[/align] [align=center]The event begins at 5:00 PM EST but we welcome any early birds and the doors will remain open after the meals go cold.[/align] [align=center]Questions? [/align] [align=center]Direct your inquiry to: [/align] [align=center]Caelenn Mhlar ( Hostess ) [/align] [align=center]Abrenard Rondelet ( Supplier ) [/align] [align=center]Erimmont Chevalier ( General Manager ) [/align] [align=center]Shiori Eikitaika ( Head of Research )[/align] [align=center]Ravean Blutsinger ( Artifice Leader )[/align] [align=center]OOC Information: There'll be no transfer of in-game funds nor in-game items.

[/align] [align=center]If you've any questions at all, IC or OOC, you're welcome to ask those listed above in-game.[/align]

A great many thanks to those who attended and competed with congratulations to Odette Saoirse and Tristanaud Lemieux for their grand prize and runner-up winnings! Keep an eye out for us in the next month as we'll no doubt be hosting another event in the coming weeks!

As both a bump and a reminder! The Showdown is still very much on and the prizes very real. While the Zu is the grand prize, the primal minions for the runners-up are chosen by you. The joys of Omni-Crafting!

[align=center][/align] [align=center]Credit for this lovely promotional poster goes to one Odette Saoirse ( Capheira )[/align] [align=center]The Showdown Details[/align] [align=center]It's been some time since the Dread Wyrms have hosted an event for the public and for that we apologize. The more recent moons have been ever so busy. However, as is our way, we return in full force to bring you a showdown that only our unique professional brand can muster. [/align] [align=center]Certainly everyone's heard "Drunken Sailor" and "Blow Boys, Blow!". Though we very well think the world has need of some fresh, original shanties to put some wind in the sails of sailors of both air and sea.[/align] [align=center]That's where you come in.[/align] [align=center]Compose an entirely original shanty and put on a show for a drunken and joyous crowd within Dalamud's End while four judges take our pick of the litter and lavish them with prizes that might well toss your mind overboard.[/align] [align=center]No rules to hold your creativity back save it MUST be a proper shanty in theme.[/align] [align=center]The Prizes[/align] [align=center]This is why you're all here. [/align] [align=center]Besides booze and incredibly dashing sailor lads and lasses, that is.[/align] [align=center]The GRAND prize, the person who impresses us the most will be given the reins of a rare Zu specimen, tamed by one of our own crew to serve as your trusty steed or murder beast. This is no Fools joke, despite the date. Sure, it looks terrifying and can likely tear your enemies in half with a single snap of the beak but we promise you it's secretly a lover, not a fighter. Would we lie to you? [/align] [align=center]Probably. [/align] [align=center]To all runner-ups, we'll be granting them a single primal minion of their choice crafted by our own Admiral and genius researcher, Shiori Eikitaika, that has the very essence of the Primals within their tiny forms! These creations will do anything from haul your luggage to launching themselves at your friends and foes alike to pummel them in adorable primal fashion. [/align] [align=center]We're not to blame for any tempering that goes on.[/align] [align=center]When and Where!?[/align] [align=center]The showdown starts at 8 PM CST on the First of April and runs until whenever you choose to leave or we eventually get tired of you and the contest has ended. We're not a bloody hotel, after all. Though that likely won't be until midnight at latest.[/align] [align=center]We'll be hosting it within our very own mansion, Dalamud's End, found within the Goblet. Ward Seven, Plot Thirteen. The booze is on the house during and even if you're not throwing yourself into the contest, we'd love to see you there.[/align]

Known Kiipa here for about.. I think almost six or seven years? Her writing is sublime and I highly encourage you seek her out for a sample. She's a perfect treat to spend some time with. And unlike her, I will glow about her. 'Cause baby, I'm a firework. Gunna show you what I'm worth.

I honestly wish I could give you a general time I'm online but as it stands, I tend to be online more often than not save when surprise errands and events come into play. Still, entirely willing to RP with near anyone who asks.

@Kiipa, Syranelle: You can glow all you want but it won't get you too many brownie points until we RP again! @Everyone else!: You're more than welcome to poke at me via tells or message here. I'm rarely ever terribly busy (save gearing now that I'm level 60) and generally if I am, I'm usually willing to drop it in favor of RP.

The glory of the caravan life and that he tends to be a wandering sort is that he need not stay locked with the caravan if he can give reason for his absence. @Addison: The Caravan is actually nearing the Shroud as we speak, so that's not at all a long stretch. @Virella: Given that he's still gathering his belongings from his own time in Ishgard, I don't see why he couldn't meander up there to offer a fresh read to keep the nights warm. @Ashe, Faye, Scaraphae: I'm all too glad to meet with the lot of you, really. Also, Adeya should pop on by again. Haven't seen her since our first meeting but that was mainly due to a plethora of life issues on my end. You all can poke at me in-game or shoot me a message here and we'll see what magic we can work!

As someone who's known Syranelle for years, I can say without a doubt that she's an incredible bonus to the community. Solid role-player and incredibly helpful to those who need an unbiased view or critique, as well as a famous healer back on our previous game. And now she can't escape me.

It's been ages since I was last part of the site, mainly due to a plethora of events both in-game and OOC. However! I've returned once more to play the part of necromancer for this thread. Erimmont has, of course, still been lingering around. I'm certain a few have spotted him at some point or another over the last few months. Things have taken a vastly different turn for him. He does still write his erotica/romance novels but he's also currently caravan-bound. If anyone wishes to get in contact, past poster or present, do let me know via a message or here. It's good to be back. I'll be updating that first post there shortly.

It's been far too long since I was last involved here. Rather than necro the previous thread from last year, I thought I'd start anew as so much has happened and changed. My character is, ICly, an author of various romance and erotica novels under the pen-name of Shroudheart. Currently, he's in the midst of traveling with a caravan but he has a tendency to wander off on his own only to catch up with them later. That said! I'm afraid my RP circle has dwindled and given the amount of time I have readily available, I'm looking to expand it. If you've any interest in meeting the fellow at all, you're more than welcome to post here or send me a message. And for the curious few wanting to know more about him: Erimmont Chevalier's Wiki Page (A WIP) Looking forward to hearing back from any interested parties.

Just going to say it. I don't know how I feel about folks identifying my legs. Brianna, stop checking me out and Anzu, hand over that camera so I can shatter it between my thighs.

Personal experience with Maddy here: She's an absolute delight to role-play with when you catch her. Quality of her style is to die for and I fully encourage anyone looking for a breath of fresh air to look her up.

Also unsure why the calender is saying today but alas! It's Thursday, 5-8pm EST. Odd thing, that.

Figured I'd give us a wee bump as I only -just- threw this onto the calender! HERP!

[align=center]Greetings![/align] [align=center]You are cordially invited to the Vylbrand Academy's Literacy Lounge! [/align] [align=center]Please meet us at the Academy (Plot 2, Ward 3 Mist) at 5pm EST on Thursday the 5th of February.[/align] [align=center]The Lounge hosts an open bar and stage for those who wish to share their favorite literature with a group of like-minded individuals. Come and enjoy a fresh drink (both alcoholic and not) while you come and listen and share stories, poems or even your own writings. [/align] [align=center]The genre does not matter in the least! Romance, mystery, adventure! Fiction or non-fiction! [/align] [align=center]The choice is yours so long as you ensure to keep it civil.[/align] [align=center]We welcome you to come and visit prior to the event to sate whatever questions you may well have regarding the Academy or the Literacy Lounge. Simply send notice in a manner of your choosing to Erimmont Chevalier and he will tend to you as soon as possible.[/align] [align=center]Hope to see you there![/align] [align=center]______________________________________________[/align] [align=center]OOC:[/align] [align=center]As the above implies, we'll be opening our doors to the general public to share stories while drinks are had by all. You can bring whatever you'd like to the table.[/align] [align=center]Personal story? Poem? An adored song? Let us hear it![/align] [align=center]The gathering will be held in the -incredibly- large bar area within the basement of the Academy, complete with a stage for the one performing. If you're curious about it, simply give me a /tell and I can drag you to look into it either IC or OOC![/align] [align=center]Also: If this time is ill fitting to those who attend or others /tell, we may see about changing the time to better fit those all wanting to attend. This first night is but a sample, after all![/align] [align=center]I decided to put this together with the rest of USH as many here have expressed a desire for a 'book club' of sorts since I started getting more active. [/align] [align=center]Thus! Here we are! [/align] [align=center]We look forward to seeing you all there.[/align]

Soon! Feel free to toss me a friend request in game! I agree with both, at this point! Hell, should see about setting up a monthly/bi-weekly meeting for a club. Could be fun! Looking forward to it sometime soon, then!

I'd like to think they've gotten around, really. A few folks have asked if they could be 'fans' of his and the like so entirely possible. As for the academic, the man isn't against learning something new. More information for the Academy to lean on, after all! Also. Vilicus says hi. Because hi.

But it's so comfy there. Q.Q Oh, not to worry at all. Truth be told, I'm suppose to be moving in short order myself. I'll gladly throw you a message shortly and see if we can't work something out when you're all settled in. As for Dustwight/Wildwood conflict, I'm not too sure you'll need worry. His poor heart is currently recovering after being trounced on by a lovely Duskie woman.

Not at all! Honestly, due to my injury, I'm pretty flexible with my hours and I hardly mind making a slight adjustment to meet someone new. You just let me know when! Well, not everyone can be as skilled as a blacksmith, after all! Entirely possible, though. I'm sure he'd love to meet her and write a few things for the wee ones as well!

Actually, my usual hours range from about 1-2pm EST to around 6am, sometimes even later. I'd be all too glad to set somethin' up with you! Also, welcome to the server! I'll be certain to see if I can't get a hold of you soon, then! After all, he's not limited to his writing. He also teaches the fine art of acting at said Academy starting in next few days/weeks.

Well, now! I'm finding myself in a bit of a pickle as of late when it comes to RP companions. Due to the nature of my lifestyle, I'm often online most of the day and of course, I expect no one else to be so insane when it comes down to it. However, this often leaves me with far too much free time on my hands and while I've been filling it with constant ST runs as of late, I'd really love to expand my list of RP contacts! That said, I suppose I should mention a little about him. Erimmont Chevalier is his name, often simply called 'Monty' by those who rather avoid the mouthful. Representative of the Vylbrand Academy (=USH=), he's often out and about looking to make connections as the classes are no longer open to only members of the Academy. Anyone can very well join them. He also has quite the collection of erotica novels as he is an author of such things under the pen name "The Scarred Heart". Ever the dapper gentleman, I'd love to see about meeting more of you fine folks no matter what the circumstances. Simply respond here or send a message and I promise I'll get back to you so we can work something out.

The only tumblr I can imagine myself being spotted in is... Nazheeri's? I know I've been in three or four there as far as I'm aware. Have I been elsewhere? It's the suit, isn't it? Everyone loves the suit.

I figure this could be a bit of fun indeed, given the type of character I have in store. Your character's name: Erimmont Chevalier Your character's race: Wildwood Elezen Your character's gender:Male A bit about your character: 'Monty' as he's so often called is a man of many talents. His skill with a bow near matches his skill with a quill in hand and when not representing the Vylbrand Academy, he's often found either playing one of several instruments or penning another one of his erotica novels (much to the glee of some and shame of others). Dapper and suave and ever so well-dressed, Monty is one who loves both a fine romance and someone to hold through the late hours of the night. A bit about what your character seeks in a potential date: A woman with a bright and open-mind is something Erimmont can cherish. Must enjoy being held and pampered or else there'll simply be no connection to be made. That's not to say Monty doesn't enjoy the rugged beauty and company of a woman with a more active lifestyle, of course. Which day(s) will you be available (Feb 13, 14, or 15): All three, as far I am currently aware! Will gladly update as soon as I can with actual knowledge of it. I don't often plan ahead.
