What is the RP Platform?
Our RP platform is lite rp. Many of us RP and love doing it, but it is hard to get big groups of people together for an ongoing story, and it doesn't hold up as well. Making it harder to keep up the excitment and the drive from the creators to keep working on it.We've decided to try a lighter version of it, hence lite RP. Our goal is to still attract rper's to the FC, and be able to provide them with possibly a smaller/different version of what other FC's might offer while still having the social aspect embedded.This could also offer a chance for new rpers to test the waters and learn how rp works in FF14. If this idea works well enough we might look at expanding and coming up with a plotline for the free company.This is the premise for the FC as we stand now:The Society of the Lotus is a trading company run by Lady Izanami Oshiga and her business partners, A'keshi Turnin and L'reya Rayen. The shipping company doubles as a storefront for many of the goods that pass through the doors of the company, while also hosting a tea room in the lower portions of the building. Lady Izanami also hires contracted adventurers from time to time to help with various jobs that she may need assistance with or those working to procure and associate themselves with the Society of the Lotus Trading Company.The Society will be hosting open RP nights on Friday's starting at 8 PM EST! The open RPing will take place at the Lotus FC house in the tea room downstairs, there will be no staff as we want to encourage casual and fun RP. Hope to see you there!Fridays 8 PM EST
Balmung, Lavender Beds, Ward 14 Plot 58.
Please reach out to Izanami Oshiga in game if you have any questions!
