The Stormslayer Trading Company
Est. in the Astral Year of 2022

The Stormslayer Trading Company is an Ishgardian Established Trading Company that now resides in La Noscea. Established by the legendary late Haurchefant Greystone and his widow the Dowager Countess Lady Ophelia Greystone-Stormslayer.The Trading Company specializes in the trading of raw goods and materials as well as employing some of the greatest artisans around all of Eorzea. The desire of the company is to grow trade organically and honestly that doesn’t matter where you are from or how high or low your status is. But how you choose to make the most of your talents.

The Stormslayer Trading Company is a RP Community that specializes in Trades and Arts of all forms. Our main intention is to form roleplay connections and storytelling through crafting, gathering and trading as a way to connect others.We at the Trading Company, acknowledge that while we cannot beat the Market Board, it's always better to trade and do business with people we know, versus those who are nameless.While our main HQ is on Zalera, we are happy to do business with vendors all over the NA data centers with outpost venues in every Datacenter in NA and we hope you will join the community and support accordingly!

Roleplay Rules & RP Style

Our RP Style here at the Trading Company

The Short Version:IC-Semi-Lit, Para and Multi-Para StyleWith an emphasis on Market and Trading related RP.New Player FriendlyCulturally and Lore Compliant (Lore Bendy ok)Lamping and Private RP are welcome but know we will regularly engage publicly to allow RP to cultivate unless you give us an indicator that you are not open to chat.RP Etiquette and common sense are strictly enforced during Business Hours.All venues open for SFW RP 24/7/365

The Long Version:We are an In-Character Community that specializes in Trading and Market style RP. We prefer paragraph style that is in the viewpoint of Third Person Limited with a focus on person to person dialogue. While we have Lore-bendy components and welcome alternative style Roleplayers in our community - the main MSQ lore is hard canon in our community and alternative style RPers are highly encouraged to have an acceptable backstory to back up how they bend the lore. (Voidsent, Ascian, Androids, Resurrected NPC’s etc.)We welcome all new RPers to our community - but we recommend The Emporium Markets be not be your first experience with RP - consider either hanging out at the Tavern - or check out a few other open RP events hosted by our Affiliates' and get used to RP. This is so you don’t feel so overwhelmed by our detailed style of RP during Market Hours.Lamping, Group RP and Private RP are VERY welcomed so long as you are not hindering business or other RP going on at the time.(AKA- don’t stand in front of our vendors and talk to your friends via tell/party chat - please move to our additional seating spots on the side, upstairs, or outside to our patio lawn to continue your conversations.)We're not home? That’s okay - feel free to RP on your own in our venues, we just ask to keep it classy not trashy, and please promote our space in your RP communities where applicable.Now on Discord - unless specified otherwise - we are kinda of a “IC Lite” - which is why I ask you all to change to your in-character name. - Although most conversations are OOC - postings of trades and sales are considered IC.
