About the Tavern
(The following can be taken in OOC and IC context.)
(ALL GIL, EXCEPT FOR THE OPTIONAL CHALLENGES, BAR BUY OUT, ETC. IS FAKE IC GIL. You do NOT have to pay for the Grilled Trout/Orange Juice traded to you when you order a meal, but anything you give us optionally helps us get a better place for the venue in the future. Please see DONATIONS F.A.Q. for more info!)
Thanks for stopping by our tavern!The Wandering Wolf Tavern is a fairly open-to-all restaurant (barring ne'er-do-wells, voidsent, and especially Imperials openly loyal to the Empire).You will find a mixture of cultures and services here, although the theme is Doman.It is also sponsored by the Legion of Solace, who's sole aim is to help people in need of a home--people who have lost homes to the Empire or Calamity, and need a family. They also help ex-Empire slaves get off their feet as well and provide a place for registered Pureblood Garlean Refugees to find a place to start a new life after fleeing the Empire.Besides this--the Legion of Solace will provide repairs to magitek machina, clinic for various needs (attachment of magitek prosthetics of various kinds) and commissions for said prosthetics. Check with us to see what we can do to help you!Both the Wandering Wolf Tavern and The Legion of Solace (FC) are run by Lucius (Luke) Ignatius, who is a Pureblood Refugee of his own. He was inspired by the trials in his life to help others adjust to a free life in Eorzea--instead of letting them roam without knowledge of where to go or start.Including a love of cooking and the arts, Wandering Wolf Tavern was born.So come share a table with us with good company, food & drink with entertainment!

Tavern Rules
(OOC Rules are to be strictly followed while visiting the FC House. IC or OOC Rule breaks will have your character escorted from the premise.)
OOC Rules:
While we prefer not to have to enforce any of these OOC rules, they will be here so that everyone attending the venue are having a good time OOC and grief-free. If you are at all confused with anything on these lists, please ask.
We are first, and foremost, a Heavy Roleplay venue. If you choose to attend, please put an RP tag on so that we know to tend to you. Please keep OOC chat to a bare minimum and within brackets (( )), [[ ]]. OOC:, //, what have you. You can hang out and see what the venue is like, but please make an effort to RP instead of talk OOC. It breaks immersion for those who are RPing.
We are considered an 18+ venue. Characters and players should be 18+ on entry.
OOC Talk is generally preferred to be contained within party or tells. Small things are fine.
Hosts/staff will be wearing the melding materia tag.
Please note that none of our staff will be intentionally ignoring anyone. In small places like these and a large group of people RPing, posts can get lost. Be patient and understanding, especially if a staff member asks for a repost. If you think your post got lost, please give a staff member a kind poke in tells!
Be respectful to the hosts of the venue. If they ask you to leave due to frequent disruptions, please do so.
No trolling, spamming OOC chat, or disrupting other guests with OOC stuff. If we get mentions that you are causing harassment of our guests, you will be reported for harassment to SE if you do not stop.
There will be 3 warnings in tells (depending on the severity it can be the first time offense) if you do not heed them, you will be reported. At that point, host and staff will ignore you. Then, and only then, you will be ignored.
There are no judgements here on: Orientation, Gender, etc. If you have an issue with any 'general things' like that, please don't come here, period. If you do, keep your thoughts to yourself. There will also be no public discussion OOC on bait-ready topics (politics, etc.)
The establishment cannot be IC torched, blown up, destroyed, what-have-you without explicit permission by Lucius Ignatius. Any attempts without confirmation of approval will be met with an ignore.
If any OOC drama should occur between people in the venue over RP disputes, etc. we kindly ask that you keep it in tells, or step outside the plot. If you have issues with any of our staff OOC that do not concern the establishment, just don't attend. If you should have an issue with the conduct of our staff while attending, please contact Lucius Ignatius privately. We don't air dirty laundry here and we won't be getting into drama.
Rules can be updated and added to at any time, and at the host's own discretion if they are not listed here. Just be respectful and kind and you'll have a marvelous time here.
IC Rules
These rules would be posted up at various points within the establishment and are expected to be read on entry.
We will serve near anyone who comes through the establishment's doors except: voidsent, loyal Imperials, rough-housers. We have the right to ask anyone to depart the premise should they pose a danger to the guests or hosts.
Refugees of any kind are welcome, especially Pureblood Garlean. You will be required to show licensed refugee papers showing that you have checked in for refugee status. Generally, you will be asked this on only your first entry but if suspicions arise you will be asked again. *Refusal or combative actions to show valid papers will have you escorted off the premise by a bouncer. Even if player-bouncers are not present, they are always NPC'ed as being so. *
No bar fights. Fights of any kind will have you escorted off the premise by a bouncer--aggressively or passively.
We reserve the right to refuse alcoholic drinks should the guest be too intoxicated to function.
No sexual interactions on the premise. Please use your own rooms if you must.
All guests are equal, regardless of their race. If you have a problem with Pureblood Garlean refugees, do not dine at our establishment. *No voidsent or ne'er-do-wells!
If there is no attendant to seat you, please find a place downstairs to sit that is open. If the downstairs is full to capacity, please sit in the waiting couch upstairs. If we have full capacity, we will do our best to accomodate as many as we are able.

Hiring?
We are hiring!

However, if you decide you like hanging out here and want some housing buffs/etc, you are welcome to ask about joining!

They welcome all who need a home (aside from certain character concepts--ask privately and we will let you know) They also are attempting to open a clinic for magitek limb surgeries and general help.The Wandering Wolf Tavern is considered owned by the Legion of Solace, and a part of their headquarters.
Donations F.A.Q.

Over all, this venue is for people wanting to RP something relaxing, fun and a place to hang out with good people.

We are also logging our 'current donations recieved' to be transparent with how much we have, and where it is going.)All donations of (real) gil are used for making the Wandering Wolf Tavern better. It goes toward better housing for the refugees that make our tavern home, also allowing for more 'living' room and to better pay our volunteer staff for their hard work when we open. You have our unending gratitude, and hope that your time under our roof is always a positive time to remember!
Ways to Donate:
- Any staff (materia melding sign, marked on our staff listing) can collect any donations that you give them.
- We have a few optional challenges that require entry fee to enter, please check the menu to see those. Some may have (real) random prizes to win for the first person who does it of the night.
