guidelines

  ooc. this is a video game, above all else; real-life matters before RP. if you have flippant drama with other people, leave it outside. Legit drama is handled on a case-by-case basis. this RP group is meant for mature adults, not for children. please be mindful of any drama between members of the community. in-character drama is fine, out-of-character drama is not.

  do not be uncouth. just because your character is a dick doesn't mean you get to be one, too. as mentioned before, we're here as adults for adults; do not act like a child.    it's okay to be kinda rude in character    don't let it bleed over to real life.

disclaimers. we don't own anything from the ffxiv or john wick universes.    we just play in the sandbox.

  interactions & plotting. it's encouraged to interact and plot with your fellow community members. we are all here for a joint creative endeavor to tell stories. that being said please do not openly feature the following topics in your plotlines: SA, extreme goreporn, things that break the geneva convention. if you insist on metagaming or godmodding around the community rules, community leads reserve the right to return the favor. Leads reserve the right to add to this list as seen fit.

  dress code. cocktail attire requested. wardrobe malfunctions expected; handle with care.

staff

owner and operator of the asphodel, it's a labour of love for this well-versed miqo'te. a woman about town this botanist knows her way around potions and notions. often found smoking a cigarette or with a glass of gin, the concierge of crime is more than happy to point you in the right direction.

The long, illustrious, and most times sordid career of Ms. Meleda Foxfyre has led her down many paths and brought her just as many enemies as friends. Honeyed words come just as easily as drinks and drugs for The Vixen, who has a very unique skill set that makes her someone you'll want on your side.

He is a bartender, and that's all you need to know. You may have seen him before, behind another bar, inside another building, within another's employ, but you see him here now, and more notably, he sees you.But you need to know more. How he manages to catch your stare with a glance a mere instant before you looked away, what that spark of mischief in his eye could mean, and what exactly it is that makes smile tend towards a smirk. Does he, perhaps, know more of you than he should?

• carrd

Once a consort, once a healer, once a lover, once a friend, Fideo has lived a life longer than most, not that she would let you know it. A skilled bartender by trade, you'll often find her with a drink in her hand, though whether that drink is for her or a patron is a whole other matter. One can often find her charming her way into someone's heart down the bar. It could even be sincere.

From killing to keeping an eye on people, this short cat boi is a strange weird guy that enjoys food too much and pumpkins. Most of the time adorned with an orange flat cap, he is most likely found standing near the bar making trouble for Fi and Kynnra or standing against a wall watching the coming and goings of The Asphodel. If one were to talk to him many may think he is not the most intelligent person in the world but that is just at face value. Talk to him and find out if he is just a weird strange cat in a orange hat or an unintelligent muscle bodyguard.

You'll be hard pressed to find someone of note Komorebi doesn't know.Need something found, someone located, or information that would land you on the darker side of the law? Komorebi will connect you with your every need faster than you can blink.

as mysterious as the night itself, the Midnight Oracle can lift the veil of the unknown and reveal things unseen to those bold enough to let her read for them.

Limsan born and desert anchored. Another friendly botanist who has his fingers a bit too close to the coin purse. 'Honest' deals are a fallacy but he'll have you believe everyone with a confident smile and puffed-out chest. Just leave the discussion of his patron at the door, would you?

an eccentric radio host from southern garlemald in search of the familiar. nNaturally, this brought him to the hotel to share the proper form of music with its patrons, along with the smile on his face!

Native to Koshu, soft-spoken and bearing an eternally plastic smile. This Lordsworn samurai prides himself in zealous adherence to his code and his word, both; rigid in his obsequence to his orders, and unapologetic in their remorseless enforcement. Said orders have brought him to the eaves of the Asphodel and the Madame's service- so, please. Check your weapons at the door, and don't cause trouble. Whatever it is, it's not worth it.

Vincent Ward

RP (SFW AND NSFW) - If it's a NSFW rp, they'll need to include a "kink list" for safety reasons (including what they will not do and what they enjoy). This can come in any form so long as it outlines their boundaries. But this can also be discussed with the person individually just so long as they're aware.
^{available at starting bid}Screenshots (SFW)- simple sets (1-3) which can be for headshots, carrd photos, partner shots, etc, will be done for 5 million.
^{(3 people per photo maximum)}Screenshots (NSFW) sets (1-3) which includes "glue", editing, VFX, and hand drawn aspects will be done for 15 million.
^{(3 people per photo maximum)}(1) Surprise Art Portrait which includes a simple sketch -- which may or may not include cel-shading/rendering (depends on how busy I am). The style would be semi-realism anime style. Must have detailed screenshot references of the character in good lighting (a description of their personality and/or other art you've had done is also great). Will be done for 50 million+.
