Welcome to the Community Finder!

Essence of Amity <Kiryu>
Small, LGBT+ Focused Faerie Free Company!

<Kiryu> is a close-knit free company that welcomes many adults (20+ only) within, and few allied with, the LGBTQ+ community. We are founded by BIPOC and LGBT+ members! Our namesake originates from a totally-not-popular game with a character of the same name. “Essence of Amity” comes from the “Essence of” abilities and the literal meaning: “importance of bonds.” (Please note that while we do have some allies, we are currently not looking for them thank you!) We are also currently looking for more members in Shadowbringers or Endwalker!

★ Welcoming safe space where everyone is treated like family
★ A bunch of walking disasters to get acquainted with (literally sailors, help them)
★ Chill, goofy vibes environment
★Discord server to experience the second coming of hell
★ Friends willing to do or try content, whether it be normal, extreme, etc.
★ A variety of omnicrafters and gatherers to save you from going bankrupt
★ Fairly active group with no plans of ever growing large

★ Housing ★
We have a medium house located in Empyreum, ward 3 plot 8 with all the basic necessities.

★ Events ★
We have both in-game and non-FFXIV related ones. They are generally on Friday or Saturday night (usually at 7pm EST or 4pm PST) and at the moment with Sunday as a possibility. Examples include mount farms, extreme trials, unlocking new raids, occasional Crystalline Conflict, map parties, and hangouts related to specific holidays. Others include multiplayer games such as Jackbox Party Pack, Mario Kart, Smash Bros, Splatoon, Fortnite, Overwatch, Among Us, Gartic Phone, et cetera. Sometimes we even watch movies like Perfect Blue, Free Guy and Hocus Pocus 2 to name a few! We have artists who like to draw and are open to drawing sessions together!

★Discord★
Our events take place in the voice channel here. Speak among each other with text and optionally voice! We allow visitors and server transfers. You can introduce yourself, talk about other games and topics, post lovely gposes and personal art. [Please do not ask any of our artists to draw for you unless they request it or you commission them.]

★How to Apply & Contact★
Please contact me on discord at des#0621. If you are applying, I ask that you leave your preferred name and/or character name, age, pronouns, brief details of yourself and your biggest reasons for wanting to join.
I also reserve the right to decline anyone who people don't feel comfortable with, or do not seem to fit.

If you have any additional questions and would like to know more, please also drop a message there. Remember, intro first and questions after so I can know who is messaging me. If this seems like it's the right fit for you, then I apologize profusely. I'll get back to you as soon as possible! Looking forward to seeing you!

Yes, we have an "As You Like It" video here!
