Starfall Trading Company Biweekly Report
Happy April, everyone! A'mahri and Dezmond here with your Starfall Trading Co. biweekly report!
First off, we've gained a few more additions to our merry band of a free company, as well as our linkshell. With this, perhaps we'll be able to start up some more large-scale events in the future, as well as get started on the IC Spotlight!

A Slight Name Change
After a ton of confusion, we have changed our tag from <<SFC>> to <<ST-RP>>. We apologize for the inconvenience if you were trying to sniff us out!

Teamwork is the Best Kind of Work
In addition to our influx of members, Starfall Trading Co. is beginning to set up 'branches' for other members. Nothing too big, or anything that will segregate the Free Company's members, but it's main use will be to make it easier for members discover or keep their interests, as well as help applicants decide what it is they would like to do beforehand. Both branches will have their own sorts of events, but that doesn't mean they aren't open to everybody!
So! Now that we're on branch talk, here's a little bit of information about them. They'll also be edited into the IC Information section of the page.

The Expeditionary branch may be well-suited for characters who are hunter-gatherers, sell-swords, adventurers, etc. However, just about anyone can pretty much tag along anyway. Those within the Expeditionary branch will find themselves often going out into the wild and procuring whatever materials may be in said area - be it IC or OOC. From an OOC standpoint, if you would like to gather/farm mobs in that area and chuck your findings into the Free Company chest for the Manufacturer branch, you are more than welcome to do so. From an IC standpoint, the Expeditionary branch will be rounded up every now and then to gather, hunt, and maaaay be taking out a few hostile animals and the occasional bandit or two. Events primarily involving this branch will mostly be labelled as [expedition] , [survey] , or [harvest tour].
The Manufacturer branch is well-suited for characters who are merchants, craftsman, and those willing to learn how to craft in general. Regardless of whether your character is part of the Expeditionary branch or not, an SFC employee always has the Manufacturer branch to fall back on. This branch is the heart and soul of the Starfall Trading Company, and your character's job is to either craft various goods with materials given from the Expeditionary branch, or operate the more 'front of house' side of the company - selling our wares in our market stalls should the opportunity arise. Even if you are not a craftsman yourself, this branch leans more towards the business-oriented side of the company. A charming, outgoing personality or simply a helping hand in production is sure to make us a fortune! Events involving this branch will mostly be labelled as [workshop], [bazaar], or [company roundup].

Housing Situation
With news that 3.3 may be bringing us new housing wards, Starfall Trading Co. has gotten to work with saving up! Currently, we are summed up to around 23m thanks to both donations from the community as well as regular hard work running raids and other various forms of content from our members. Give yourselves a pat on the back everyone, you deserve it! By the time the patch rolls around, we'll be sure to be able to afford a medium sized house for the company..how exciting!

The Astral Bazaar
In the future, Starfall Trading Co. will be hosting its first ever public event, the Astral Bazaar! We're still coming up with ideas for what to do for the event apart from market stalls and raffles, but we'll keep you all updated when the time comes! If you would like to toss any ideas or suggestions, feel free to toss me a pm, or catch either myself or Dezmond in-game.
