Elegant, inviting, intimate, these were some of the more common words used to describe the Lavender Lounge. Having gained a reputation for servicing any and every desire of its patrons, the Lounge has quickly become a common topic on the tongues of its neighbors and competition alike. Its hosts are well practiced in the art of hospitality, with both traditionally Hingan methods and more modern western options being happily offered. Glowing reviews give insight to the Lounge’s success, but it doesn’t account for all of it. The manager of the Lounge was a curious figure. Her history was worn plainly on her sleeve, a creature of physical strength with a brutish air about her. Despite this, she melded well into the realm of hospitality, providing for the customers a level of attention only a true veteran could muster. A manager was, at its core, the backbone of any business and she served her role well. The Lounge was, however, not the only thing she was in charge of. As the thorns that lay under the plush petals, the Kiseibana are to thank for the house’s success. They are an enigmatic group doubted to truly even exist; the only evidence being the flower mon that adorns the letters of their victims. They are the shadows that steal secrets and seal lips, the invisible hands that pull the strings of their self-made puppets. Kiseibana was made with the goal of providing a venue for service and crime themed RP that might be lacking the focused attention that it deserves. While most groups focus on painting in broad strokes we're catering to niche and specialized sorts of characters and themes. Have you ever felt like your character won't fit in anywhere? You're exactly what we're looking for. The Company is divided into two sections; The Lavender Lounge and Kiseibana. Players may involve themselves in one or both parts of the company and are encouraged to do what's best for their character in terms of how they interact with each half. The Lavender Lounge is where hosts and service staff will interact with customers and present curious patrons with their own unique offering. Hosts are encouraged to craft spaces that play to their characters skills in terms of hospitality. It serves as the primary backdrop for the company as well as the cover for the more criminally minded characters. Everyone has a day job, even if it's something as simple as a nondescript "Staff member" designation. Kisebana, as a group, goes about things in a particular way. It's no home for thugs and scoundrels, but rather a family of information brokers, manipulative smooth talkers, and quiet infiltrators. Most members of the group are experts in playing from the shadows and staying one step ahead of their targets. They are a secret society and prefer to keep their existence a well guarded secret; existing only as rumors and speculation. Kiseibana prides itself on being an sex positive, LGBT+ safe space where its members are encouraged to explores themes and character archetypes that may otherwise not get the level of respect they deserve. Due to the potential themes and content of the FC we require all members be 18+. An organic event structure: We heavily encourage people to cultivate and engage with the efforts made to provide a truly living company space. Plot threads will appear naturally in day to day activities and the development of rich character relationships and dynamics is something we prize highly. A unique, expressive roll system: Kiseibana utilizes an internally developed roll system that puts a distinct emphasis on wit and stealth. To facilitate our focus on individual attention players will fill out specific niches within the system in order to work well as part of a team of elite agents. Flexible Event Scheduling: As the group’s jobs are filled by groups of 2-6 members they are scheduled and ran based on the availability of the players involved. A place to grow: No matter how new or established your character is, you’ll be given every opportunity to develop and explore your character’s own stories as they interact with others and the overarching narratives that are presented around them. Interested? We look forward to your application! You can find it here.

THE COURT OF MIRACLES. Good evening and welcome to my thread, as the title may suggest, I am recruiting for my LS "The Court of Miracles" To start this off, The Court is not an FC, I decided to keep it as LS so that people don't feel compelled to leave current FCs or such if they are interested in The Court and it's easier to deal with in my opinion. That said, if enough people join it and enough want it to be an FC I would be willing to start saving up for a house. Now that that's settled, let me tell you about about what the court is, Black Market Dealers, We are called the Court of Miracles because we can get our hands on just about anything (Crafters are very welcome) we fence items for people who may not know how to play with the MB and take a small cut from the proceeds. Rp wise The Court is treated as a Mafia type family, both IC and OOC I will expect members to be respectful to one another and to deal with any arguments in an adult manner. Dark themes and Mature content are a given, so please be aware that Murder and Violence will spring up, however, we are not an EVIL LS, we are mobsters, everything boils down to Money. I expect loyalty, I will not ask anyone to act against their FC unless that FC wants to do an event regarding the LS (Mob wars are always fun) I would prefer people to be loyal to the LS but if things move a certain way that you don't like and we can't come to an agreement or real life is getting in the way, there will be no hard feelings, so long as you communicate with me you will always have a spot in The Court. If you are interested in joining catch me in game on my Main Character Rokuro Sato or in Discord at Rokuro Sato#0901 and feel free to ask questions if you are still unsure or want some more clarification. Until then.

Path of the Rootless 'Path of the Rootless' is a Heavy RP Free Company on Omega (EU) server, with crime, mercenary work and adventuring as the main focus. We often dwelve into dark, mature themes, with a penchant for the realistically gritty and anything that can pack an emotional punch. Cutthroats, stray souls, broken wanderers, fugitives and all manners of individuals mildy fitting (or not at all) society can be a part of Path of the Rootless, for it reunites outcasts and those who have nowhere to be. Please remember that: --> We by no means advertise or promote dark themes on an OOC point of view, we are all perfectly healthy-minded people and everything we write and roleplay is strictly fictional. Thus, we seek to gather adult and mature roleplayers who are comfortable with certain jarring topics. Everything we write is entirely fictional. <-- Our RP focuses mostly in staying out of the main cities, even though they can represent a temporary stop where to rest, replenish our supplies and look for employment. This choice is due to our belief that Final Fantasy has a lot to offer in terms of enviroment, and often its potential is neglected or overlooked. Given how huge the world is and how wonderfully structured the landscapes are, we seek to make the best of it by threading beautiful stories across verdant lands, stormy seas and snowy mountains. Important: We have recently purchased a FC house, however, that is going to work as our main Headquarters. It's a good way to accomodate our members without "losing each other on the way" while travelling. After several months of experimental journeys, we have concluded that having a point of reference where to always go back to is a good policy to mantain a solid connection between social interactions. It is important to also point out that we are not a FC of isolationists. On the contrary, we from time to time advertise our current location to other Roleplayers (wherever we are, and wherever they are) to see if there is a chance to meet and RP. Being a low-profile group of law-breakers doesn't equal wanting to stay away from people. We do seek interaction with anyone willing to spend some time with us, be it for short-term or long-term plots. We appreciate everything. However, this happens seldomly. We are a heavily storyline-driven FC, rather than a casual-social FC. This means that while we have extremely strong social bonds between each other, we feel the paramount need to have a concrete storyline in our lives, something that drives our days, establishes our goals and leads us to places continuously. How do we RP? We RP both in-game and on Discord. Since we rarely linger in RP hubs, we organize ourselves to meet online at every chance we have, but we also RP a lot in our Discord channel. Sometimes being all online at once is difficult, so in order not to 'miss' on each other, we have text-RP channels on Discord where we can interact and have fun even without the obligation of being necessarily online. It allows everybody to keep up with the others and be always present and on the same page. We know that sometimes Real Life stands in the way of online activities, so our Discord RP channel make sure to never leave our members behind or cut outside the course of events. We also give an extremely high importance to the values of fairness and realism. As odd as it may be to speak of 'realism' in a game that is called Final Fantasy, such notion can be clarified by saying that we predilect what is sensical, likely, reasonable and based on common sense. Thus, nothing going close to powergaming, poweremoting and metagaming is practiced or tolerated. Also, we were thinking of working on a rolling system, but in the end we decided to handle IC combat and fights with a mix of common sense and the occasional /random in-game rolling. We like to keep it simple and to give space to free narrative and storytelling, without too many numbers in the way. What can you expect from us? A group of individuals that has been roleplaying for several years and that believes in a drama-free enviroment. We are all adults, we have gone through our happy and rough times, and now we just want to have fun. We are open-minded, we laugh, we joke, we do our best to accomodate each other and collaborate. It can be easily said that we are an extremely chill bunch with a very relaxed and friendly attitude. We do strive to RP everyday, either in-game or on Discord, and sometimes there are tiny hints of PvE amidst our activities. However, let it be clear that we are mostly and above all a Roleplay FC. That is the paramount purpose as of why this guild was created in the first place. Nevertheless, rest assured that you will find welcoming people in this FC who will do their damnest to make you feel integrated and part of the whole story. We give understading, kindness and reasonability but we also expect the same in return. A successful relationship is always a matter of team-work, after all! If you are considering joining us, however, we ask you to take your joining with a moderate amount of seriousness: since we give plenty of attention to newcomers, we are going to channel a lot of efforts in creating something that will make your introduction important and smooth. So, you are not left on your own to elbow your way into RP, but you actively discuss with the FC Leader about a possible fitting story that will tie you to the rest of us. Since there is much dedication on our side, and much effort done towards you, we ask you to be thoughtful of it and join us only if you're really sure of your commitment, to make our efforts and time towards you worth it. How to contact us? You can contact Dwassyith Swanra or Xihsa'li Tayuun in-game. Alternatively, you can also as well add Dwassyith Swanra on Discord privately: WhatAFreak#1278 Since we can be busy with work sometimes during the daily hours, you can simply leave a Private Message here to the writer of this thread and we will get back to you as soon as possible! In order to join, we believe a talk is in order to understand our needs, expectations and views of things. You may as well consider it some sort of OOC interview, but it has limited importance. The real test comes ICly, where we all get to see if there is the needed chemistry and the right reasons to stick together. OOC communication is important, but IC flows dictates.
