Once upon a time, the tavern now known as the Queen's Ring was... something. No one who was there when the doors were last opened is around to tell the tale, and a series of indifferent satraps and a crumbling facade ensured that the building in east Radz-at-Han remained unsold for at least three generations. Until now!
She isn't much to look at yet, but with a fresh coat of paint the Ring is sure to be a must-stop in the Bounty's greatest city.
In addition to the tavern downstairs which overlooks the sprawling Thavnairian countryside and serves potable drinks, the Queen's Ring also serves as a headquarters for the specially licensed free company Southern Cross.
Southern Cross is currently seeking skilled artisans and builders to contract the restoration and expansion of this historic property. Please contact the guildmistress Primrose Alvane with inquiries!
Code of Conduct
*The Queen's Ring is open to the public every second and fourth Monday and by appointment for RP any other time (we do use this venue for company RP, so please check ahead of time, but we'd love to have you!).
*This is an IC venue, meaning all characters present are assumed to be here for roleplaying. This is not an OOC social club venue.
*While the in-game location of the Queen's Ring is in the Goblet, the in character location is in the city of Radz-at-Han.
*This place is a bit of a dive, but it does at least purport itself as an upstanding establishment. Starting fights and partaking of dubious substances may land you in trouble.
*To ensure the comfort of all participants, ERP is forbidden on the premises.
*An NPC bartender (his name is Jalshahn) is always present in addition to player staff.
Staff
Primrose Alvane
Owner/Proprietress
Whisked away from Golmore moments after her birth, Primrose was raised under imperial occupation in the Dalmascan capital of Rabanastre. When she came of age, she traveled all across Dalmasca as a performer, and her renown led her to attract instructors from across the Empire, leading her to obtain high profile roles in theatre, dance, and opera. She leveraged this reputation to become a companion to Imperial officers, siphoning information from the palace to aid various resistance factions. Since Rabanastre's fall, Primrose has resettled in Radz-at-Han, becoming the head of her Hyuran father's house and opening a perfumery before founding Southern Cross.Primrose's duties include the administration of all aspects of Southern Cross's operations, including the Queen's Ring.
When a young Jiro fled imperial-occupied Doma, it mattered little where he ended up so long as he was as far away as possible. He ran west as a refugee until he was deposited at the gates of Ul’dah, where he decided to make a name for himself or die trying. Limited options lead him to the Bloodsands, where he found his coveted success under the gladiatorial moniker ‘Sovereign.’ Jiro clawed tooth and nail up the ladder, and along the way found overwhelming fame, a taste of fortune, and a talent in the subterfuge required to maintain both. The years that followed were a whirlwind of high-stakes drama and betrayal that ended with him alone at the head of one of Ul’dah’s wealthiest estates. And then ‘Sovereign’ died in a fire.
Jiro fled again to Radz-at-Han where he found that, unfortunately, retirement is dreadfully boring. Even now Jiro revels in the glamor of his past life, ever a handsome face who loves good conversation and good wine, even if the sweet words shared leave a bitter aftertaste.
Occasionally works as a bartender at The Queen’s Ring.
