OUR CAFE MANAGERS

Yasheera

  fearless leader      Meowdy pawtners! I'm Yash, yer rootin tootin pun-tastic glue aunt. I like long walks on Costa Del Sol's beach, chocolate milk, and traveling to the ends of the universe to stop tiny bird people from spreading existential dread into the hearts of those I love (occassionally).I do the tank things sometimes, I do the DPS things sometimes, but I never do the healy thing because if there is one thing I'm good at it's being bad at healing. Also, I love Hilda.


Ane

  chocobo mom & gardener      Hey! I’m Ane. I like helping with all the chores around the FC – feeding the birds, watering the gardens, washing dishes and helping clean up after events. When all the chores are done you’ll usually find me sitting on our tree swing or just relaxing somewhere in the yard. Oh, and if you see any little foxes running around the yard, they’re probably mine.I’ve adopted a few little foxes I take care of at home. Well, quite a large number of foxes, actually! Nothing I can’t handle though. I usually bring one with me to the Free Company so they can exercise and meet new people. Look, I have one right here! Do you want to adopt one? You seem nice. Of course you do. I have the paperwork right here in my pocket. You’ll get along great I can tell!


Mhiri

  interior decorator      I'm Mhiri, the resident goth and interior decorator of the group. You can usually find me taking pictures or working on housing savage.When I am doing actual content, you'll generally find me playing Sage or Summoner. Tanking isn't really my thing, but I dabble in Dark Knight when the mood strikes. If you ever need help with content or just want someone to run things with and I'm online, don't hesitate to reach out! ♥ICly, Mhiri is a bit quiet, generally preferring to be lost in a good book or scrolling on her tomestone over actively engaging with people. Even while working in the Cafe, it would be rare to find her without a book near-by for those slower moments in between serving guests.She is married to her partner, Min, and you can usually find her attached to the hips of him and D'fhiri.


Taliya

  professional yapper     Hi hi! I’m Taliya; part time barista, full time story enthusiast! I love chatting and getting to know people, which is probably why folks here put me in charge of recruiting!I love running everything in duty finder in my free time. I tend to main DRK because I love tanking, but lately you’ll find me just as often running VPR. If I’m online and I have the time, I’m always down to help people through content!IC, Taliya is a talkative, excitable sweetheart who enjoys making sure everyone has a good experience at the cafe. If you ever come by and want to practice your RP, give me a /tell and I’ll help set you up!


Xang

  mount collector      I'm Xang. I've been playing for many years now. That doesn't mean I know everything but some. I love Tanking the most then heals. I don't like to dps much cause I think it's boring. I mostly try to get hard mounts to grind. I do try to keep up on hard content. I like to chat in our FC. I might even have a conversation with myself. Maps are fun. I just realized crafting is an addiction. I've been with FC for a while. I love everyone in it. I feel like I need to come on just to say hello talk maybe log off. Message me on discord if you need help. If I'm not at work I'll most likely help.


D'fhiri

  submarine enthusiast      Hi, I'm D'fhiri, local muscley adventurer and savage raider! I love taking photos all throughout Etheirys and writing about my friends and my own adventures across the star.I'm a bit of a romantic and I love to read. Even more than that, I find my hands can't be kept still unless they're taking something apart or putting it back together. I'm an accomplished blacksmith and weaver, and I hope one day to be a jack-of-all-trades. You can usually find me in the Company Workshop, trying to figure out how to piece big underwater vehicles together (and sometimes succeeding).When I have to leave the workshop to go on adventures and raise some funds for our little operation, I wield the axe as an officer of the Maelstrom. Although I was raised in the outskirts of eastern La Noscea, near Raincatcher Gully, I prefer the bustling, never-sleep atmosphere of the major cities.If you see me around, feel free to ask me for help unraveling your latest mystery or archaeological find. I might be able to put something together for you! D'fhiri's roleplay profile & secret menu


WELCOME TO THE CAFE


When you walk into the courtyard of the Rainbow Cafe, you are lulled into a sense of comfort. The air smells of lavender and the faint sweetness of baked goods, the balmy breeze of the Black Shroud's most temperate weather caressing you like a warm hug.Past the gate, the humble gardens are sparkling with care. You can hear the distant snuffling of happy chocobos and buzzing bees hovering among the flowers. This place teems with life.Once inside, your troubles are eased by the distant trickle of waterfalls, the smell of wood and coffee and aged paper. The air is touched with the sweet, heady aroma of Elpis flowers. The atmosphere is as timeless as it is welcoming.A server behind the counter greets you with warmth, and it becomes clear that all are welcome in this space.The staff takes your order, then prepares your drink and snack to perfection. Perhaps there is an enchantment at work here, for despite the winding halls and comfortably cozy rooms, there is always a private nook to be found.

How to use in-game chat for roleplay.

We understand that not everyone is experienced in roleplaying in-game. Please use these guidelines to help get started! Most members of «RAIN» are happy to roleplay with you when we are open as a venue! If we are online or have the RP search info tag enabled, feel free to use /tell to open a private RP with us. In some cases, we may utilize party finder or our RP Linkshell to party up for large roleplaying events. In such cases, we will instruct newcomers on how to join. Otherwise, please utilize chat channels as follows:
          ❥ SAY (/say, /s) | for general chatter and introductions. OOC chatter should be in [[brackets]] or ((parentheses)).
          ❥ YELL (/yell, /y) | for looking for RP partner; using format: "LFP | Pronouns | 10-15 word plot idea or starter sentence."
          ❥ SHOUT (/shout, /y) | for looking for RP partner; using format: "LFG | Pronouns | 10-15 word plot idea or starter sentence."
Some staff members may have special roleplaying services available. Please keep in mind that these services will be primarily SFW, as we are not an ERP venue. Otherwise, platonic, sensual, or romantic encounters may occur depending on our individual member's comfort level. Repeated clients may find their own unique storyline shaped over time!
          ❥ To receive an individualized menu of these services from available staff members, ask in any chat channel for the "secret menu."
