The Cloak & Dagger is pleased to announce that its April 8th opening will see us welcome our first performers to our stage! We hope to see you there!

One week! Well, one week from yesterday!

 

We’re looking at potentially being a bit shorthanded when it comes to staff this time around due to pre-existing obligations on the part of some of our volunteer staff, so if this event interests you and you want to help make sure it goes smoothly (or if you just want to try your hand at something a little new), then consider being a part of our team! There’s no need to join anything except a Discord server (and even then, not for voice chat). You can find more information about volunteering for The Cloak & Dagger here:

 

 

Our April 8 opening will also, as said, feature our first scheduled performance! (Future events may include an “open mic” schtick of sorts.)

 

We hope to see you there!

[zaviire]

TONIGHT!

Featuring Ibi Shigo! We hope to see you there! Remember: criminal mischief is more than welcome. :> This venue is neutral ground so as long as no one comes to blows, no one will be asked to take it outside!

[Talman Chryses]

Well done, Leonnaux and company, for running everything with limited volunteers. It must have been hectic.

Thank you! It was pretty hectic, but everyone seems to have had a blast! :') I won't go copy-pasting everything I said in this post afterwards but everything there holds true! Seeing so many people come out and support the event either with kind words, donations, or themselves offering to volunteer and help run the event is honestly really inspiring and we appreciate all of it! 

 

I'm still working on getting some screencaps spruced up for posting (lighting was pretty low inside during and after Ibi's show... partly because I forgot to turn the lights back on...eheh...) from Sunday's event, but when that's done I'll post them here and on the Ebonguard tumblr!

 

The flyer/poster for the May 20 opening will also be slightly delayed because of a thing I'm going to try and get rolling for it: a job/rumor board for RP hooks and the like.

[zaviire]

MAY 20 FLYER IS LIVE!

From now on, I'm just going to update the first post of the thread with the new flyer! Threads will henceforth just be bumped with screencaps from venue openings, plugs for the volunteer staff connections thread or Tumblr post (the former of which I'll stick in the bottom of this post just for good measure), and thoughts/ramblings post-event.

 

 

The same post on Tumblr here: http://ebonguardls.tumblr.com/post/171421676222/the-cloak-dagger-seeking-staff-security

 

And finally, on the brand-new Job Board venue feature (also in the main post, but here as well for good measure):

 

Quote

As a brand-new feature, The Cloak & Dagger now has a job board. Located on the ground floor in the corner, the more… Normal-sounding jobs and rumors can be perused at one’s leisure. These are meant to be RP hooks, be they penned by members of the Ebonguard, Cloak & Dagger staff, or venue regulars. Anyone is welcome to submit additions to the job board by sending an ask to @ebonguardls! The clients for these jobs or sources of these rumors do not have to be player characters, so we welcome you to get creative and go wild.

 

Less legal and more criminal-oriented jobs would be located in the lounge upstairs, accessible IC by ordering a Cloak & Dagger cocktail.

 

Caveat: jobs or rumors that are not lore-compliant or are meant to target a specific player character without their additional and proven consent will not be added to the job board.

 

The job board can be viewed on the venue’s information page or via Google Docs here.

 

[zaviire]

We have two (!) lovely performers slated to perform on May 20! It should be a blast!

Our job board is pretty snazzy too. Play a n'er-do-well? Wanna plop some RP hooks out into the water to see who bites? Then drop me a line and the entry will be added to the job board for easy viewing on the venue's information page right alongside the menu and house rules!

We're also always accepting volunteers to help staff these events! Without them, these things wouldn't be possible! <3

[zaviire]

Tonight!! We hope to see you there!

[zaviire]

OUR NEXT OPENING NIGHT IS ON JUNE 10! Rather than pre-booking performances, this time it's more of an 'open mic' sort of thing. The stage will be open for anyone who wants to show off their talent over the course of the night; we’ve had wonderful performers for the past few openings and want to give others the chance to use it. The stage is not limited to usage by performers; if there are any other criminal-oriented events, groups, or plotlines, then people are free to hop up and advertise these things in-character as well.

 

Before the June 10 opening, I am going to try to update the basement with some new items added in 4.3 as well, so please look forward to it! The tweaks will probably be minor, but getting to use cool new items is always exciting!

[zaviire]

Whoops, I totally spaced on updating this thread. The next opening is next sunday, July 22 at our usual time! Click the flyer for the tumblr post!

 

 

Additionally, we're always welcoming people who want to volunteer and help us make our event great! For more information, see this (also aged, but no less accurate) thread: 

 

[zaviire]

Tonight! Hope to see people there!

[zaviire]

Our next opening date is set for August 12 at our usual time! We're trying something a little bit new this time; if you are attending for the criminal aspect of the venue and/or order a Cloak & Dagger, then the staff would appreciate it if you would set your status to 'looking for party.' We're trying this out as a way to boost visibility for both the staff and other patrons! The flyer, with a click-through to the post on Tumblr is below.

 

 

Additionally, we had a blast with the July 22 opening--but we ended up being a little short-staffed for the turn-out! It's a lot easier for the staff to handle both the event-running aspect of the venue and push the darker/criminal aspect of it at the same time if there are more enough, so if you think you might be interested in helping out a little with the event, then check out this thread:

 

There's no long-term commitment required, but The Cloak & Dagger is run entirely by volunteers rather than any set organization or group (while Ebonguard is affiliated with the venue, working the venue or even attending these events isn't required; we do this because we want to!), so any interest or spreading of the word helps us a lot!

[zaviire]

Our August 12 opening was a blast, so here are some screencaps! Credits to Khada'li Nhija and Elexia Renard, both of <Mafia>, in that order, for the first two screencaps. The last one is mine. You can tell because I play on minimum graphics!

 

 

Our next opening is on September 9 at our usual time! We hope to see you there, and as always, we're always welcoming volunteers to help out with the event! It's tons of fun, especially when we get to do crimey-stuff with each other and the patrons!

JOIN US FOR A NIGHT OF MASKS AND MISCHIEF!

The Cloak & Dagger cordially invites patrons new and old to the venue on Sunday, October 21 at 9PM EDT to enjoy a masquerade-styled open night in honor of All Saint’s Wake.

 

As it is designated as neutral ground by its proprietor, the venue will still be open to a less mystical brand of mischief in the form of its usual under-the-table dealings.

 

⸸ Venue Information, House Rules, and Menu  

※ For the masquerade, only drinks will be served by our staff. Additional special cocktails will be added to the menu, and there will be an open buffet set out with small snacks.

⸸ For the convenience of event staff and fellow patrons, if you are attending for criminal RP and/or have ordered a Cloak & Dagger, please set your status to looking for party. This will let us (and others!) find you more easily. 

 

Located at: The Goblet Ward 11 Plot 55
Last call is after masks come off at midnight.

 

We hope to see you there!

A little bump to mark that our masquerade is in about a week! Join us for a night of masks and mischief indeed.

 

As an aside: we are hoping to have three performances during the masquerade! Two lovely volunteers have stepped up for the first two time slots, but we still need one last performer to round out the end of the night. It doesn't have to be at exactly midnight (Sunday is a weeknight after all!) but having something to draw the event to a close would be nice! If you're interested, send me a PM either here or on Tumblr.

 

Keep in mind also that while the event runs longer, for the Midnight Masquerade only, we are opening one hour later.

 

We hope to see you there!

[zaviire]

The masquerade is TONIGHT! Please note that it actually starts at 9PM and runs until midnight, contrary to what the calendar says. It doesn't appear to have updated correctly. Please do not show up at 8PM, we won't be ready.

 

Due to the popularity of masquerade events also, please note that if chat scroll gets too heavy, we may lock the doors until it lightens up.
