Rules
Queen's Claw is a 21+ venue & place of business. You and your character must be over 21 to be welcome.
There is a no tolerance policy for: bigotry (homophobia, transphobia, racism, etc), or harassment. Freedom of Speech protects you from the government, not from me or my staff.
If you feel uncomfortable at anytime, please /tell a staff member. We will remedy the situation as best we can.
Minions are fine as long as it is not busy (if it is, please consider putting them away for the night). No fighting in the lounge, take that shit in the ring or outside.
Please be kind and patient to staff. It is run by one person + wonderful volunteers.
This is a lore-bending friendly Venue. We welcome all sort of lore-compliant and not so compliant character types here. After all, the venue is run by a voidsent (or so rumors say) and other various creatures.
Food items are given to patrons that order food/drinks, but all gil is IC (no real gil is required to pay for items), but donations are always accepted!
Real gil is required for crafting requests.
❝ One day they came to a fork in the road
and saw a black cat in the tree.
Which road do I take? They asked.
Where do you want to go? was its response.
I don’t know, they answered.
Then, said the cat, it doesn’t matter.

INTRO:// Not a lot is known about the re-purposed cathedral down by the edges of the Emperyum of Ishgard. Once abandoned, it now houses a myriad of folks ranging from your not-so-everyday-adventurer to something with a little mystery, and who doesn't love a good mystery? What secrets does it hold?Just kidding. There's absolutely nothing special about this place. Nothing at all. A perfectly normal lounge and fight club. Please come decorate our halls with cheer or blood, your choice.

Fight Rules
Grindstone Rules. First to three wins.
All fight posts will be done in /shout. Announcers will use /yell.
Fighters will start by rolling for initiative. Highest roll determines post order.
After the first attack emote, both fighters will roll - if the offensive fighter rolls higher, the attack connects; lower, and the opponent defends.
Each subsequent emote must contain both a reaction to the previous post (whether that be taking the hit or defending) and an attack attempt.
If a fighter is in need of healing; seek out the lead bartender or an appointed healer.
Currently, fights have no time-limit.
LIMIT BREAK: Roll a 999 and gain 2 points to your score.
