We especially want to mentor crafters and gatherers, helping you gear and progress in your Discipline of Hand and Land classes. We typically have 4-8 players online at a given time, and we use Skype and our forums to chat and RP out of game. Link to comment

Lekka Meyren Posted November 5, 2015 Share #12 Posted November 5, 2015 I thought I'd add a little bump here to say that we host events most(if not all) weekends and are also active in Skype-RP during those busy weekdays! And the lovely Zanin writes these pretty update posts, like the one for October celebrating our one year anniversary! http://aimguildhall.shivtr.com/news_entries/310648 Our new structure means that if your character is an inventive or business-minded sort, the AIM company structure may be able to aid them in starting up a business venture. This is available both for full FC members and our Linkshell associates! ...And of course, your character can comission our myriad excellent craftsfolk to create something. Whether mundane or fantastical!~ 1 Link to comment

Salty Lake Posted November 22, 2015 Author Share #14 Posted November 22, 2015 Just a reminder, our open mic / talent show is tomorrow! We hope you can make it! Link to comment
Lekka Meyren Posted December 2, 2015 Share #15 Posted December 2, 2015 We had a lot of fun at the talent show! Thanks to everyone who came by and showed off their skills on stage. In updated news, AIM has taken in a few new recruits to be seen about our halls, and we're excited to continue plotlines relating to airships and exploring northern Eorzea. This of course in addition to our usual Manufacturing and inventing business. Does your character need a specialty item? Perhaps even something as simple as a chair that fits a roegadyn. Come on by! 1 Link to comment
Lekka Meyren Posted December 20, 2015 Share #16 Posted December 20, 2015 The holidays are approaching, and while we are busy in real life, the company is as active as ever! Interviews ongoing and pending with new bright minds joining our company. We should be posting some events in the new year as real life starts getting less busy! Link to comment
Lekka Meyren Posted January 23, 2016 Share #17 Posted January 23, 2016 2016 is upon us, and we have had the annual AIM Toy drive. In the coming months there are many social events occuring at the AIM mansion, including work-outs led by Worren Tigre, and social events organized by S'hayla Riki. As always, we are located at Goblet Ward 8, Plot 5 (large) and you can see our event calendar at http://aimguildhall.shivtr.com/ 1 Link to comment
Lekka Meyren Posted February 17, 2016 Share #18 Posted February 17, 2016 In the time since my last post, a new news-post went up on the AIM site! http://aimguildhall.shivtr.com/news_entries/328511 It details some of the adventures and events of AIM in the past several months. In the news; We have had several new members join our ranks, and recruitment is still open! Notably there is a event this upcoming weekend titled simply "Mystery Chocolate?" ...Do you dare? As always we are open to drop-in RP at Goblet Ward 8, Plot 5(large) for any comissions your character may need fulfilled. Link to comment
Lekka Meyren Posted March 10, 2016 Share #19 Posted March 10, 2016 AIM is still going strong, despite appearances on our event calendar. The new patches and PvE content are keeping people busy; as well as all the RP not listed as public events of course. We gained several new members over the past few months, and by this point they have been granted full membership. It's always a blast when people find what they need in us as a group! Social RP continues, and you are welcome to stop by us at Ward 8 Plot 5 of the goblet. Link to comment
Lekka Meyren Posted April 4, 2016 Share #20 Posted April 4, 2016 Events have once again been popping up on the AIM calendar, just this weekend Salty Lake took people for a soak on sunday, and there were developments with the northern outpost on saturday. Day-to-day rp is still going strong as well, and we've had a bit of a streak of late of doing PvE content together! It's all going well down at AIM in other words and you are as ever cordially invited to come visit us or submit an application should our brand of social RP tickle your fancy. Link to comment
Lekka Meyren Posted May 10, 2016 Share #21 Posted May 10, 2016 New developments in AIM include a weekly organized PvE effort! Running those 8-man dungeons for your weekly bonuses can be a little tiring after a while, but with friends it's wonderful! We are still an RP environment first and foremost however, and have been holding chocobo races amidst our other pop-up social RP. Applications are open for folk who wish to join our little business family. Link to comment
Lekka Meyren Posted June 11, 2016 Share #22 Posted June 11, 2016 Patch 3.3 brought us new content, flowers in our hair and new things to do on PvE night hosted by yours truly. In other news, members are experimenting with chitinous plates, someone fell asleep in the kitchen; and is that man designing womens swimwear for this summer season? All this and more at the AIM company house, where Artifice, Invention and Manufacturing happens. (And sleeping on benches) This is your reminder that applications are still open, and Social RP continues at Ward 8 Plot 5 of the goblet. Link to comment
Lekka Meyren Posted July 6, 2016 Share #23 Posted July 6, 2016 Ahoy there! AIM wanders on, with social events and PvE hand in hand. This update I want to bring attention to a cute little writeup our FC leader made on the website: http://aimguildhall.shivtr.com/news_entries/353904 It details some recent events, and also wishes to make people aware of a optional RP plot involving the creation of a play! This is your reminder that applications are still open, and Social RP continues at Ward 8 Plot 5 of the goblet. Link to comment
Lekka Meyren Posted August 8, 2016 Share #24 Posted August 8, 2016 Summer slowly draws to a close (depending on your local geography; hope you enjoyed winter, Australia). - And AIM marches on as always. New developments! Workout RP returns to the schedule, as Worren aims to teach the crafty and tinkery folk of the Company that fitness is next to godliness. The man has also recently opened his own crafting and tailoring storefront, providing Eorzea with a new outlet for their fashion needs. Elsewhere in the Goblet, L&F Publishing have partially opened their new offices, and aim to soon seek new talent for further books! Should crafting, tinkering, invention or simply social RP be your flavour, why not head down to Ward 8 Plot 5 of the goblet. Link to comment
Lekka Meyren Posted September 8, 2016 Share #25 Posted September 8, 2016 Fall arrives! Is it cold where you live? I certainly have a cold. :sleepy: AIM walks on as always, with some recurring events keeping us on our toes; and the stirrings of another background plot. Our last "plot" entailed the invention and production of an airship, these plots are always run very openly, with 100% choice on whether a character participates or not - But they often give impetus to start scenes, or give a character a way to introduce themselves to more adventures. The new plot? Could the upper skies of eorzea be conquered? Could the depths of it's seas be explored? AIM aims to discover the means to do such things, and you could help. As ever, we are at Ward 8 Plot 5 of the goblet Link to comment
