Hey y'all! We're reopening recruitment today after finishing up a whole lot of updating and some renovations on the FC house as well. The tl;dr: Veil family bought out their benefactor, gained direct ownership of their house, branched out into more broad mercenary territory Steakhouse was retired in favor of a pit-stop / 'meat-hall' (so not really all that much of a change outside of aesthetics) Balmung Venture Boards added We also had several events over the weekend, ranging from exploring an abandoned Garlean research facility, and rescuing Keeper Miqo'te from roaming Garlean slaver groups!

balmung Miriamele's Venture Board
Thunderbolt300 replied to Miriamele's topic in Chronicled Connections
I'm Kasi, and this is my favorite board on the RPC. Also, we'll be opening up the Hunter's Respite tonight at the Veil and tossing up a Party Finder to try and fill out the jobs on the Venture Board! -
This coming weekend- get hyped! The Veil will be on-station in the Gridania area to sear up some steaks- done Miqo'te style, with herbs and spices used by the tribes themselves! And really, who doesn't like a good 'ol slab of medium-rare meat? The answer? Heathens. That's who. Menphina help the poor soul who asks for a steak well-done. Those people are politely, but firmly, asked to leave.

balmung Seeking connections for an interesting miqo'te!
Thunderbolt300 replied to Caleria Amih's topic in Chronicled Connections
Third try is the charm? Given that since I originally posted in this thread, I was a new player but not quite so much anymore. -
Hey there and welcome aboard to the RPC and to FFXIV! :thumbsup: Best of luck on the hunt over on Omega!

Hey there and welcome aboard to the RPC! :thumbsup: Miqo'te master race. /grunt

Newish Player Finallly Settling In on Mateus

[align=center][/align] Nestled deep within the Twelveswood, far away from both trail and road, was a small gathering amongst the forest glades. Here, Miqo’te Seekers, Keepers, and even some others were gathered, and while it appeared like a trade bazaar, both the traders and the wares were a league apart from the typical market in Ul’dah. Salvaged Twin Adder armor- bloodstains included- was on display for trade, along with moko grass and somnus extract arrayed in baskets at the feet of another trader. Yet another trader appeared to be peddling concentrated poison extracts, while the one next to him was in the process of exchanging fur hides for vials of what looked to be blood that was hard to identify on glance where, exactly, it’d come from. Of course, more mundane traders were peddling day-to-day wares as well: meat, hides, and basic survival essentials. The people here were hardly from civilized society, either. Some looked as though they had come off the streets of Ul’dah, while others were clothed in furs and hides, as though they were from poaching clans in the Twelveswood. Others were simply tribal barbarians and vagrants, dressed in the bare minimum. Regardless, these were all people who lived on the extreme fringe of society- just trying to survive any way they could with what they knew in an increasingly alien, modern and civilized age. [align=center] [/align] [align=left]The Savage Wilds is an OOC networking and event Linkshell where morally-grey pragmaticism, criminal underground, and the tribal, savage wilderness collide. Mature, dark, and gritty, The Savage Wilds draws loose inspiration from The Witcher series’ Scoia’tael. Here, off the beaten path and into the wild frontier, you can find a people who have been beaten down and brushed aside by the endless churn of social and economic progress. While some are certainly broken, others hope for and strive to see civilization tempered with the traditions of their ancestors. Regardless of their reasons, they come together to do whatever they must in order to make ends meet and survive the next sunrise. [/align] Naturally, the exact means of their survival varies from person to person. Some ply a trade as wandering mercenaries and traders, living at the fringe of civilization, while others turn to banditry, poaching, or thievery. There is even the odd case of piracy and the nearly-defunct practice of humanoid trafficking. Yet others take advantage of the large swaths of untamed wilderness, harvesting and selling rare herbs that are difficult- if not impossible- to obtain off the typical civilized markets. There are even some that are extremists, looking to defy the rule of civilization and law no matter where they go, and even attack it given the chance. In spite of there being such a diverse ecosystem of lifestyles and professions, there is a steadfast rule in the wilds: a campfire is an open invitation in the heart of the wilds, and an opportunity to meet, trade, and gossip among kindred souls living a hard life. Those who are at least familiar with the wilderness will be able to find friends aplenty among the winding, overgrown paths… [align=center][/align] There is no real requirement to joining beyond having a vested interest in world RP away from the towns and cities. Still, it’s good to keep in mind that this is a mature, dark, and gritty Linkshell and it’s very likely you will encounter those themes. Naturally, grey and pragmatic characters will fit in well, but you don’t necessarily need to fit that mold to participate. In fact, you could join the Linkshell as a good-aligned character looking to stem the tide- anything’s possible! We welcome rivalry with both individuals and groups, and will be reaching out to counterpart organizations to collaborate. That being said, we will maintain activity requirements for the Linkshell and cull inactive players or players that join and don’t participate on a monthly basis. These requirements aren’t anything significant- we just want to avoid a situation where the Linkshell accrues dead-weight over the course of months until it bogs down and dies from inactivity. At the same time, we’ll also limit our maximum membership to 50 players (subject to adjustment) in order to prevent becoming so large that we collapse under our own weight. Really, this is just housekeeping stuff to ensure the Linkshell has a long life and meets its intended goals. For recruitment information, questions, and joining, contact Kasi Nebuko (Thunderbolt300 on the RPC). We are also available on Discord, which is available on request! When joining the Discord, please remember to change your nickname to the character relevant to the Linkshell.

Hey y'all! Just a heads-up that we are temporarily closing recruitment for a few days while we refurbish the company concept. Since creation of the company, storylines have advanced and we're taking some time to internally discuss company direction and niche going forward. Stay tuned!

Hey there and welcome aboard to the RPC! :thumbsup: Making the move to Mateus is probably a pretty solid idea, all things considered. You'll have much better access to the RP community!

balmung Chaotic Good Dark Knight Searching For Contacts
Thunderbolt300 replied to CoriSol's topic in Chronicled Connections
All I have to say here is that it was a blast getting a chance to have Kasi run into Rona and having a little scuffle. Gonna have to have another encounter soon (probably a bit more tense...). More people should hit her up! -
Hey there and welcome aboard to the RPC! :thumbsup: As for where to post your ideas? Probably lore discussion or RP discussion- either forum would be suitable! Maybe even character workshop, actually... roll the dice- pick one!

balmung Chaotic Good Dark Knight Searching For Contacts
Thunderbolt300 replied to CoriSol's topic in Chronicled Connections
Hey there! I'll toss my sword into the ring here as an evil feller- change things up a bit and make life exciting. Kasi is a wandering mercenary, trader, cook, and a few other things, but she delves into the criminal underworld rather regularly and definitely errs on the dark side. That said, she's a morally grey character even if she's evil at her core, so there's always a reason she does what she does and she definitely doesn't think of herself as being evil- just pragmatic. If this tickles at all, lemme know! -
Hey there! As a vigilante, you can always tussle with Kasi. Kasi's got a long reputation as a mercenary and has done a lot of arguably very bad things in her lifetime, but she's also done a lot of good things, so she's kind of a grey. It's still enough she could draw someone's ire for some revenge, though. Depends on what, exactly, you're interested in shooting for!

Hey there and welcome aboard to the RPC! :thumbsup: You may want to consider moving to Mateus for better access to the RP community- at least until Balmung opens back up someday. All the same, best of luck on Cactuar or wherever you choose to go!

mateus [ Mateus ] Sandwich food truck pulls in!
Thunderbolt300 replied to Casanova Sandwich's topic in Welcome Desk
Hey there and welcome aboard to the RPC! :thumbsup: -
Hey there and welcome aboard to the RPC! :thumbsup: I don't think there's much of an RP community presence on Exodus- so you may want to try looking at moving to Mateus. That's currently the only RP server open to transfers, at least until Balmung reopens. Best of luck!

Returning FFXIV player, need some help getting re-acclimated!
Thunderbolt300 replied to BubbyDucks's topic in Welcome Desk
Hey there and welcome back aboard FFXIV and to the RPC! :thumbsup: Think your questions have been answered already, but yeah- Mateus is really your best choice for RP access at this time. Best of luck, all the same! -
Hey there and welcome aboard to the RPC! :thumbsup: I feel your pain with Balmung being locked down- here's hoping it reopens relatively soon.
