Being the terrible crime family that we are, the lovely folk at Lansquenet have decided that you roleplaying types have far too much gil in those pockets and far too many good ideas that need ripping off. And we're here to kill two birds with one stone. Figuratively, of course. The boss has strong feelings on actual bird killing.
He says stones aren't efficient enough, for a start.
But just because we're stealing someone else's idea doesn't mean we aren't doing out own thing! Well. I mean I suppose it does mean exactly that. But we do have a few tricks up our sleeves! For a start, there are two THREE of us! Both myself and the excellent ansemaru as well as latecomer belderiver will be arting for you! What's more- well, I'll get to that shortly.
All money raised will be going toward guild housing - ICly, toward buying land for a pleasant little establishment called the Drum and Dagger. Because with all this primal business, Empire business and the rising prices of wool, Eorzea is very, very much in need of yet more places to drink.Â
'Shut the hell up and show us the goods, you insufferable windbag', I hear you say! Well, look no further! Here are some amazing samples of the artimabobs you will recieve!
