HOLIDAYS AT THE CLOAK & DAGGER

Due to when major (US) holidays fall this year, our schedule for November and December has seen some adjustments in order to accommodate the holiday season!

November 25 and December 23, the fourth Fridays of November and December respectively, we will be CLOSED.

December 2 and December 9, the first and second Fridays of December, we will be OPEN at our usual time!

Additionally, with the end of the year right around the corner, our yearly Heavensturn Celebration will be on December 30. 

For this special event, we will have a special (limited) menu to ring out the old year, and we are looking for IC bards and performers to utilize our stage and help make our last opening of the year a night to remember! 

(If you are interested in participating, please reach out to us via Discord.)

We will return to our regular schedule of second and fourth Fridays in January!

The Cloak & Dagger is hiring for all service and security positions related to the venue’s operation! For more information about available positions, please see our hiring page here: https://cnd.crd.co/#hiring

FFXIVWRITE 2019 FINAL STATS & MASTERLIST

As promised! And cuz it’s fun to break things down.

I intended to spread writing out over all six of my characters (that I have ironed out to varying degrees) but ended up only using my lads, oh well.

Total Words Written: 9983 (so close to 10k! In my Word Doc it’s 10213 but that includes titles.) Average Word Count: 332 Longest Piece: “Forgiven,” ft. Rosemund Blackthorne (1182) Shortest Piece: “Jitter,” ft. Janos jen Renata (78) Prompts Written: All (Only #18, Wilt, was missed and made up the following Sunday) Free Days Written: 0, but I’ll do better next time! Pieces Written for Leonnaux: 11 Pieces Written for Janos: 8 Pieces Written for Rosemund: 7

Favorite Piece: “Forgiven;” it’s probably the one that I had the most fun writing and the one that let me explore the character in question the most. “First Steps” is a VERY close second, because despite the fact that for along time I asked Ebonguard applicants how they found their linkpearl, I never really established that for Leon. Least Favorite Piece: I don’t really like any of the journal excerpts, but my least favorite is probably “Jitter” because it’s too short to be interesting. Character Developed Most: Rosemund Blackthorne, because he had comparatively little to go off of going into this. I’m really happy with how he’s turned out so far and I think I’m finally ready to dive into RP with him now that I know what his deal is, as it were. (”Forgiven” specifically prompted me to flesh out his background with some help from the other members of the Ishgardian Discord that my friend Eggy runs!) Character Developed Least: Janos jen Renata; despite how much fun it is to write him, nothing really new about the character revealed itself through writing this time and most of his development was workshopping backstory with my friends, which had nothing to do with FFXIVWrite.

The Cloak & Dagger is a high-class speakeasy situated on the edge of the Goblet's Brimming Heart, but rumor has it that it has ties to Eorzea's criminal underworld.

CASTING CALL : MODUS OPERANDI

THE LAW SAYS THERE ARE THREE ELEMENTS TO A CRIME⸻

Mens rea, or the "guilty mind," which refers to the culprit's intent of committing a crime;

Actus reus, or the criminal act itself, or the physical elements that constitute the crime; 

and causation between act and effect.

MODUS OPERANDI is a major collaborative plot arc centering around a heist being planned by the self-proclaimed leader of the Ebonguard and proprietor of the Cloak & Dagger, Crow.

The main body of the story will center around the heist and will be divided into two parts: "mens rea," the planning phase, and "actus reus" which covers the heist itself. Along the way, side stories centering around different characters and concepts will open up for relevant characters to participate in.

We are seeking collaborators for the main body of the plot, which covers the heist itself. Ideal candidates are lore-compliant RP groups with a vested interest in a long-term campaign with multiple player character factions in play, who are situated in such a way that they would stand in opposition to the Ebonguard. Ideally, this would not be a one-sided arrangement, so if you are interested please be prepared to brainstorm and consider what you would want out of a plot like this!

For more information regarding what we’re looking for on our end and how to get in touch, please see our Carrd: https://ebonguard.crd.co/#cc

Welcome to the Cloak & Dagger: a speakeasy situated on the edge of the Goblet's crown jewel: the Brimming Heart. As the summer heat rises to its yearly crescendo, the proprietor has begun making arrangements to host a grand party from sundown until midnight—a celebration of the season, held underneath the stars that shine over the city.

The Moonfire Faire, for its rather explosive history, is synonymous with summer in Eorzea, coinciding with the hottest days of the season.

During, countless citizens of the realm come together in an effort to beat the heat at Eorzea's various beaches and pools—one of which is none other than the crown jewel of the Goblet, the Brimming Heart. This year, the proprietor of a certain speakeasy has taken it upon himself to organize a large celebration during the faire as a showing of good-will to the city that nurtured his fleeting fancy into the successful business it is today.

The Cloak & Dagger is planning to throw a special event for the Moonfire Faire this year, making use of the Brimming Heart located just outside of the speakeasy.

We would love for this to be a collaborative venture drawing upon various aspects of the RP community, and as such we would love to work with other players, venues, and groups for catering and event management as well as hosting performances!
