Our Story So Far

The Crescent - Season 1 - PrologueThe Crescent Keep Tavern had become a well known fixture in the Mist. Guests came from miles and miles away to enjoy the delicious food, friendly faces and hearty festivities at the establishment. Sahja, the manager and proprietor, had gathered together a motley crew of bizarre and unique individuals to make the Crescent Keep a home for a whole assortment of people. Even though there had been many setbacks and other unfortunate events, including even a massive fire and apparent hauntings, the Crescent Keep had continued to run strong.Unfortunately, this was all about to change. The owner of the land and property, a hyper intelligent shark by the name of Robert "Bob" Carcharhiniformes, was leasing the building and its surroundings to Sahja for the Crescent Keep. Bob was a very generous landlord and overlooked many of the bizarre happenings at the tavern. However, as time passed, Bob realized he wasn't the young predator of the sea he used to be. He decided it was time that he and his wife, Barb, retired to The Kupo Springs Community in Costa Del Sol.The landshark had decided to sell the property and the land to Limsa Holdings and Loans, LLC to pay for his retirement and move. While Bob had been very understanding with the Keep and the many unusual mishaps that had occurred, the account managers at LHL, LLC were significantly less forgiving. They immediately decided that their current tenants were unfit to continue inhabiting the property and ended the lease.Just like that, the group was kicked to the curb. Sahja’s dreams of running a tavern were hanging by a thread, while the LHL, LLC found a new tenant. Against these odds, the Crescent Keep manager was a very determined Miqo'te. She wouldn't let a small setback like this stop her, though her coffers had other ideas. Sahja had depleted most of her funds keeping the tavern running and handling many of the unforseen incidents, in particular the repairs after the recent fire. If Sahja was going to keep her dream alive, she would need to find another way to build up enough gil to buy a new establishment.In order to gather enough gil in such a short amount of time, she would have to seek out the help of some individuals she preferred to have never dealt with again. The determined woman was able to acquire the gil, at a great cost, but still was far from her goal. Even with a substantial amount of funds, the housing market in Eorzea was not on her side as prices had skyrocketed recently due to demand. She scoured several real estate options in an attempt to find a new place to call home with no success.Overcoming numerous rejections, Sahja finally managed to stumble upon a possible opportunity in Shirogane. A decrepit mansion loomed over the other houses in the area in total disrepair. The original owners were long gone and there were practically no records of the history of the plot. Even the nearby neighbors knew little other than the house was normally avoided. Having exhausted all other options, the Keep manager spent the remaining gil she had acquired to buy this "fixer upper."And so Sahja's dream took form once again. With the help of her crew, she began to turn this run down property into the new chapter of the Crescent Keep.

Verminion Night's at Keep

Located on Mateus Shirogane Ward 26 Plot 46

Returning SoonHosted by our own Khuja'a Lihzeh, battle your minions on our stage for prizes!

Keep’s Verminion Rules:
• All participants are limited to a maximum of two (2) minions. You do not have to use two if you don’t want to.
• You can only use one (1) minion per battle, but can switch before progressing to the next one.• All minions will have a maximum of five (5) HP. Damage dealt will be determined by your /random roll. Since this is expected to be a long combat RP event, the following will determine how much damage is dealt:
0—100 = No damage is dealt.
101—599 = 1 HP is lost.
600—899= 2 HP is lost.
900—999= 3 HP is lost.
• It is recommended to prepare a list of attacks for your minion(s) beforehand, as thinking them up on the spot could result in taking a bit longer to respond. But that said, please do not feel rushed. The environment should be as fun and stress free as possible for everyone. All minions limited to 3-5 attacks.• Anything goes, but keep it realistic. If you want a chocobo chick with the ability to cast Choco-Meteor, make sure that meteor is just a small rock on fire. Mainly, just make sure to not destroy all of Keep with the epic powers of destruction your minions have.• Regarding how the turn system works, and how long a fight will last, both players will roll for initiative. The higher roll gets to attack first. Both players will only have 3 turns each to attack. By the end of the second player’s third turn, the minion with the most HP is the winner. In the event of a tie, the battle will be decided by a final roll between the two players.
