Gridania Garden SeeD Academy (On hold) - Vokcas - 10-19-2013

Gridania Garden SeeD Academy Overview

Background:

“Not all Heroes just go out and fight, some have to study first”

Have you ever wondered “where are the great warriors,where do the heroes’ come from, where have they learned such talents?” Many of those talents are lost thought out world, waiting for some help, some guidance, a help that is capable of waking up those talents and gifts, trapped inside one’s body or mind. But who?

They is a tale, about a man with a heart the size of the woods that he resided in, this man was upset with the direction of the world that it was currently going in. He hated how the youth of today wasted so many possibilities, so many gifts and so many talents. So after one day after having enough of the world current predicament he decided to set out in search for these people. What he found was children of sorrow, children whom parents had laid down they life to protect the ones they held dearest and the children who had so many talents buried within but without the knowledge on how to use them, would simply allow them to waste away. This was the foundation of what became to be known as Gridania Garden.

As the leaves fell and the buds of the flowers begin to close as they hid from the weather of time, the Gridania Garden became more known. This caused the children from families, men and women of age and people whom seek the knowledge of forgotten arts and knowledge, to flock to its gate’s. As the renown of such a Garden increased, so did the participants whom strived for self improve and to absorb the Garden teachings within one’s mind; this was the start off the Garden’s fall. As time was brought forward, the now ‘old man’ was taking ill with the worry off his student’s safety on his mind. This new time was a time which many new dangers had risen. While Garden was a small school protecting it and its ideal’s was simple but the more the Garden grew, the harder it was to protect from these new dangers. It was not long before the ‘old man’ passed into the next realm, causing the Garden to destroy its self from the inside. And the memories of what Garden was began to fade away as the idea off everyone wanting they own ideal’s for this standing monument replaced it.

Thirteen moon’s has passed since the gardens of the Gridania Garden stood bright and vibrant as the currents of air caused flower blossoms to glide over its gate. Now all that is standing is an old dusty shell off what once was.  As a tall young Elezen accompanied with a Miqo'te whom looked like he has seen better days approached the gates of this old relic, only stopping to take a shield with the Garden Crest on it. Soon rumors began to spread as people sited people inside the garden.

Seven weeks later, as the moon met the suns gazed the old Garden gate suddenly swung ajar waiting to teach the ones who wished to learn.

Oh, my. Academy RP. I do not know what it is, but I love academy RP. I totally geek out over this sort of theme all the time, so I am extremely interested. I will certainly be keeping an eye on this and will think it over for a while.


RE: Gridania Garden SeeD Academy - Vokcas - 10-20-2013

Greetings Kismet, first of all I like to thank you for taking the time to reply, it's always nice to see people noticing your post's and having the courage to comment.

Educational Roleplay is something I wanted to do for a long time but never really got a chance to go deep into it, only scratching the surface here and there. When I decided to play FF XIV I decided to try something new so, here we are.

For those who are un-sure in the future whether about joining or not, Gridania Garden has a linkshell in which we operate to allow other players to talk to us IG regarding a number of stuff.

If you feel like you could benefit to this please don't hesitate to message me on here, enjin or in game on Dair Brainse.

RE: Gridania Garden SeeD Academy - Vairemont Malveaux - 10-20-2013

This looks very intriguing. I'm already involved with the FC I'm in right now, but if possible I'd certainly like to affiliate with the Garden in the future for RP--just for myself, not bring my entire FC into it. I'd love to get in touch with you some time to discuss what you have in mind. It could be a place for my Lalafell alt as well, if that's something you'd allow.


RE: Gridania Garden SeeD Academy - Vokcas - 10-20-2013

Greetings Larsonient and thank you for taking your time and post.

To start of I will address your alt question to begin with. Gridania Garden do in fact accept alts within it's free company, after all we like to think that each character is different even when played by the same character.

Now Gridania Garden would 'affiliate' with your character, roleplay is roleplay with or without a Free Company, beside from this it would be a great way to help the progression off your character and the Academy. If you wish to discuss details in the future regarding this, feel free to message me on this, Enjin or on Skype and we can see what we ca do.

For any info please contact me or Vok here, or Masha'ra Dhavha/Dair Brainse in-game

Thank you for the replys Smile


RE: Gridania Garden SeeD Academy - Brave - 10-20-2013

So I liked what I read in the Uldah Garden recruitment thread and was wondering if this garden is affiliated or plans to RP with them?

(I am currently getting ready for work so I couldn't read everything posted, in case I missed where you explained that ><)


RE: Gridania Garden SeeD Academy - Masha'ra - 10-20-2013

Indeed. I don't know if Limsa has already one Garden, but that's the main idea, have an alliance between Gardens Smile


RE: Gridania Garden SeeD Academy - Vokcas - 10-20-2013

Thanks for commenting Brave, let me go into more depth from what Masha'ra was saying.

Currently as we have just opened we are pulling our resources into getting the guild up and running in game. Once have has established this, we plan on conversing with Ul'dah Garden and try to boost Roleplay between both Gardens and also the whole Roleplaying Community.

My original plan was to have a Limsa, Ul'dah and Gridania Garden which would communicate with each other and allow players to experience new kinds of Roleplay for they character. One of the things that have always bugged me about characters, they have all these skill's but where did they actually get them? Who taught them? Having multiple Garden's in the world, will allow players to be more creative with they characters but more importantly open more opportunity for them.

Let me know if this didn't make any sense.

Thank you both for the clarification.  I know I have a few guildies who are interested in in these Free Companies.  I'm a Limsa kid myself  but I can appreciate an academy style RP. Big Grin


RE: Gridania Garden SeeD Academy - Ventus Zeruel - 10-22-2013

Ohhh! Boosting rp between gardens eh!? I like this idea....contact me when you can.


RE: Gridania Garden SeeD Academy - Leencat - 10-22-2013

I really love this idea. I still haven't even RPed, but I'm wondering if anyone with this guild might be around late at night (EST time), talking about midnight-ish, or if this FC would have room for someone who plays around such a schedule? I think my conjurer (white mage eventually) would really fit in well with something like this, and I also like that the guild's site is on Enjin.


RE: Gridania Garden SeeD Academy - Vokcas - 10-22-2013

Thank's for the reply Ventus & Leencat, I will go though it in order.

First of all Ventus. We are currently in the process of the recruitment stage of the Garden creation but as soon as we passed this and start RPing as a Garden, I will be in touch I already have a few idea's that I am still twiddling around.

Now Leencat, we accept people regardless of a person timezone. Yes at first it could be a problem, it may not be a problem, the best I can give you is that players like myself tend to play more then we should. I normally play till 2-4am on a weekend and normally midnight GMT on a weekday due to work.

I am sorry I can't provide a better explanation but if you do decide to follow this path, our door's are always open and we will try to set things into place to make it easier for player's of all timezones to play together.

RE: Gridania Garden SeeD Academy - Masha'ra - 10-22-2013

Thank you for the replys :)

Ventus we will contact you IC for sure, and we can set a meeting, just name the day and the hour, it will be good to start creating some conection between Gardens :)

Leencat, if you could be around a bit more early we would appreciate it, but if not we will try to contact you around that time if we can. It would help us more if you could post an application on our website too. In any case whenever you are online please contact Masha'ra Dhavha (myself) or Dair Brainse ( Headmaster ) or message me here for more info :)

Thank you

Mash
