Maelstrom Command RP LinkShell Community AKA <<FLEET>> Grand Company / Military / Law Enforcement / Adventuring We are a LinkShell focused RP community – meaning that while we do have a Free Company, no one is required to join the Free Company to be considered a fully fledged member of the community. You don't have to leave your FC friends to play with us! We're always accepting new members, and we love helping out with events for other RP groups too. For more info on how to join, or how to ask us to help out with you event, read the info below! (Last updated on 10/18/2018) Though we are a military group, our IC flavor is a little bit different than your typical military setup. In a nutshell, the Maelstrom is comprised of former pirate crews, each whom had agreed to serve whichever Admiral might be sitting in Limsa's high seat at the time. When Merlwyb won the most recent Trident competition, declared martial law, and essentially established herself as the permanent leader of the Limsan Navy, many former Knights of the Barracuda made the switch to the newly reestablished Grand Company of Limsa Lominsa (the Maelstrom). Overall, they're an organized military group, with a clear rank and uniform hierarchy, that operates in a slightly more chaotic good/chaotic neutral alignment than similar groups. OOCly, we are a largely community run group, meaning that the members are given as much creative power as they would like in creating events and deciding what direction we would like to go as a group ICly. We are constantly collaborating: planning events together, taking turns DMing, finding ways to tie our character's backstories together, etc.! Our focus as a community is to help each other move the personal stories of our individual characters forward, using the backdrop of Limsan lore and a loose military structure as a force that helps drive it all forward – with Sylb (MoenMoen) acting as the safeguard/protector, and the social main tank, for the community. We value quality over quantity, and real life events over RP pretendy time. Event attendance is never required! Above all else, we are determined to be a safe place to share ideas, grow as creatives, and to have fun, dangit!! We avoid drama like the plague, encourage one another, and have each other's back at all turns. As a bonus, we have cultivated an atmosphere that is a genuine safe place for members of the LGBTQA+ groups to hang out without worry of judgement or bullying. Who we are ICly: Officially commissioned personnel in the Maelstrom Grand Company! Maelstrom Soldiers Knights of the Barracuda Yellowjackets Foreign Levy (Adventurers) Privateers (Trade, War, & Black Sails) Mealvaan's Gate assessors Who we are OOCly: Friendly nerds who love to chatter and hang out and goof around!

From early February to early May 2018, we, the Maelstrom Command LinkShell community, are slowly RPing through the entire Stormblood 4.0 MSQ (from the Maelstrom's perspective). If you wish that you had taken more time to RP through the MSQ, or have a Maelstrom alt that you'd love to do this with, join us and come along! We're RPing the MSQ events in a time bubble independent of other RP storylines that people are playing out in their current timelines, so you don't have to worry about missing out on other cool events happening now because you're character is ICly stuck in Gyr Abania (etc.). Scheduled MSQ campaign events: Sunday 2/11 – Rhalgr's Reach (completed) Sunday 2/25 – Seige at Castrum Oriens: Maelstrom vs. Garleans Sunday 3/11 – Stolen Echo: A Kidnapping Sunday 3/25 – Castellum Velodyna Sunday 4/8 – Spectoris Saturday 4/21 – Securing Civillians: Ala Mhigan Quarter Sunday 4/22 – Liberation: Battle at Ala Mhigo Sunday 5/6 – Homecoming: Returning to Limsa Lominsa (promotions, military decorations) In addition to RP campaigns, we have casual RP nights every other Wednesday night. If you'd like to participate, join the LS community! You can find more info on joining at our new RPC Club page~
