Update 4/10/2015: We've decided to take the FC back to its original roots of being a "ShinRa" type corporation for the good guys. Looking back over all our changes, our hopes were to fit the needs of our current membership, however as our membership has gone through different generations we thought it best to build on and continue stories and themes we started way back before the game came out.
Taking what we've learned in the last couple of years, we are re-introducing the "Suits" of XI:7. This time around we've decided to focus on a more universal antagonist group that is easier to mold and jump into, ie the Empire. We'll be writing specific Imperial sub-units and enemies for storylines, but players will be able to easily host their own efforts against the Empire in any way they see fit. And as always, the Suits will go up against any enemy they need to, leaving room for variations and personal story progressions.
We'll be keeping the popular aspects of our last, more relaxed model. The Asylum will remain an Inn & Tavern for more casual RP and the social center for XI:7 Agents. The Forerunner crew will still bring people in that may not want to be a full fledged Suit. We'll still be developing our D&D-style roll system, though we'll be using it less for big story events and instead using the basic in-game /rolls to move action along and get more plot in.
