Rules

  • This is an immersive setting! In other words, treat being here like having your RP tag on! As a courtesy, please don’t use teleport or queue for duties within the venue. Use (( )) to indicate when you are not speaking In-Character (IC).

  • Be kind! In-Character conflict is fine (though touching in Out-of-Character or via /tells first is good praxis), but there may be IC consequences for bad behavior. If you have an issue with another player leave that drama at the door, avoid them, or go work it out amongst yourselves.

  • This is a SFW 18+ venue! Everyone here is an adult, and mature themes are welcome, but this isn’t a brothel, and Haerz will pour ice water on anyone getting too spicy.

  • We encourage open RP! Using /say and /em creates a more immersive environment, but if you want to keep private conversation to /party or /tell (or just sit and enjoy the ambiance) that’s also perfectly fine.

  • Please don’t spam, /yell, or /shout! Please toggle emote text off to keep the chat tidy, and leave /yell and /shout for bar staff

  • Spoilers ahoy! While they’re unlikely to come up in conversation, Kindhome is not spoiler-free.

Staff & Company

Haerzhal Irynbergasyn

Haerz is a far-travelled merchant and craftsman, well-spoken-of in the various guilds of peace across Eorzea, and House Master of Kindhome.When he's not polishing glasses behind the bar (or out dirtying them at someone else's place) he's running his commodities business, training up the next generation of craftsfolk, or spending time with his family in Limsa.Check out his carrd here

The Ironkind

The Ironkind Commercial Collective is the Free Company Haerz formed to coordinate his mercantile efforts.Operating out of the ground floor of Kindhome, the Ironkind's core membership is mostly made up of Thanalan expatriates who work directly for Haerz (NPCs/Retainers), either as students/apprentices in Ishgard, or agents/factors in various markets and trading posts throughout the continent.PC members are partners and allies who've signed on to hone their skill as crafters, get steady mercenary work guarding Ironkind caravans, or maybe they just like the pancake breakfasts Haerz makes when he spends the night at Kindhome.

Library

Kindhome's library is an eclectic thing.Most of its shelves are filled with technical manuals, books of charts, tables, diagrams, weights, and measurements. Instructions on how to build most anything (nearly all of them with marginalia scrawled in Haerz' florid hand).There are cookbooks, and many, many books on brewing, distillation, and the various products of these arts.And shelves of well-thumbed pulp novels and penny dreadfuls.Carefully placed in the newly-acquired magazine rack are a number of well-thumbed local periodicals. You'll find recent and back-issues of POPoTO, The Aether Entertainer, The Babbler, and the newest addition The Black Cat.But most eye-catching is the collection of papers (and... other things) tacked to the wall between the shelves

  • The largest item on the wall is a poster advertising the “Grand Opening of the 'Cactuar Cantina', the friendliest saloon this side of the Dunes!”

  • A flyer advertising the post-renovation-reopening of 'Clemency' a cafe and tiki bar

  • A sheaf of well-worn paper is tacked to the wall, it looks like it spent some time riding around in a pocket. It explains the mission statement for ‘The Farmer’s Attic’ a local farmers’ market cooperative, and has details on how to register for a booth at the market

  • A weathered invite to a fairy-tale themed masquerade at 'Crossroads'

  • A drink-stained coaster, colored green and in the shape of a lily pad, is emblazoned with the name ‘The Frog Pond’

  • A mailer, smelling vaguely of eel, advertising ‘Hot Folks Summer Night’ at 'The Bottom Line'

  • A copy of the drinks menu from 'The Desert Jewel' with all the 'Aqua Marine Brewery' drinks ticked off like a shopping list

  • A poster, yellowing around the edges, advertising a comedy show at 'Fiddlesticks' Funny Flat'

  • A curiously blank library card from 'Empyrean Apocrypha'...

  • A dusty invitation to the grand opening of ‘The Sprightly Spriggan’, a tavern and… spriggan adoption center?

  • A black-lacquered card that seems to drink in the light, embossed with the shimmering golden cocktail-and-crescent logo of 'Trionfi'
