Former Small Council - Kiery Lunafell FB - Mandie Faugeaux
Mandie aka Kiery (The Kie is pronounced like eye..she was too nice to correct me for way too long), first was befriended by me in Coerthas as I passed her AFKing on some bridge. I really thought her character's hair and color scheme was really cool and I liked the name. (Yeah I'm kind of a character snob). We struck up a convo about why she was not in an FC at the time and she had just had her son and said mostly she is AFK so she was hesitant to join any FC/LS etc as she didn't want to seem inattentive nor could she devote much time to the game. Eventually she said what the hell and joined our LS then soon after the FC. After dabbling back to WOW she returned to the FC with her husband Jon (Tryl), in tow and inquired to me how she could be more of a help to take some of the workload off of myself and some of the other officers. It was a unanimous decision to add her to the FC Council. She has since served as an FC officer for about the same tenure as Monad until recently where real life has taken too much of her valuable in game time and she's had to take a step down so another person can shoulder the load. Generally if she happens to not be responding it is because she is typically taking care of two kids and a husband all while trying to play the game, so don't assume you are being ignored as it is not the case. Mandie mains Scholar and is very serious about being the best healer she can be. We can stack those skills up against anyone, anytime. If you are looking for assistance with some healing for dungeons or primals, especially when it's time to try and cap tomes for the week she generally will try to jump in and help as much as time allows. At home shes the mom two future MMO'ers in her son Isaac and daughter Alie, a fantastic cook (at least from the looks of it cause I usually drool at the facebook screen), and does some awesome needlework in her spare time. I have a nice cup cozy to show for it :)
Former Vizier/Council - Meirii Ruhesini FB - Toni Burton
Meet Toni, aka Meirii Animagemella aka Mama Meirii fka Meirii Ruhesini. I initially met Toni via Facebook like alot of our members and she soon after joined our Linkshell. She was in a somewhat dead, then totally dead FC which she became essentially caretaker of. At some point she moved to Leviathan Server with her Husband and some other family members and upon having the opportunity migrated back to Adamantoise and notified me in advance to get added to 7C officially. This was probably one of the happiest days I've had playing the game and some of the best news we could ever have gotten. She's brought some fine folks along with her including current members Clam Slammer, Fayt Genbu, Wikken Sahan and her husband Xanados. Xanados (Antonio) often has his character jacked by Toni and put into strange and creative glamours so often when Xan is on, it's really her as he is currently stationed in Afghanistan. Toni is prone to a bit of raunchy humor and at times she even shocks me. But she is one of the warmest and nicest people you will meet. She has children at home that take alot of her time but when she is not taking care of them you can find her in game generally willing and able to help with anything anyone needs. Meirii was set up as a Field General with the idea of her just running a raid group for progression but she voluntarily decided to help clear as many FC folks as possible through T5-8 and onward. There are people singing the praises of these Thurs and Friday groups weekly and honestly there was no way with all the selflessness that she exhibits that we could not add her as a Council Member and we were extremely lucky to have her. She then co-ran the FC from a Vizier position during the time between April 2015-July 2015 while Ziro was away until resigning soon after. Also if you happen to love Pokemon or weird ridiculous gross out movies like Zombie Ass: Toilet of the Dead she may be your new best friend. (Seriously guys that's a real movie….and she loved it…it's gross…I'm worried)
Former Vizier/Small Council - Currently Honor Guard - Monad Proxy FB - Anthony Mirillo
Anthony or Monad, who also gets greeted as Mooooooonnnaaaaaadddd, from time to time, was a member of the Small Council for quite a time and also had a brief stint as a Vizier. He was probably the fastest promotion in FC History. He immediately gained the hearts and minds of many FC member who had either been there before him, or who had joined around that same time via hosting map parties and making them almost a nightly late hours occurrence. Anthony can be generous to a fault and has gone to great lengths to help out FC members in time of need. Most famously sending a spare PS3 on loan to an FC member who had to sell their PS4 due to financial hardship, and also helping fund various contests. He always shows concern for his fellow FC-mates and has a great sense of humor, like putting up with the running joke of "Blame Monad" for whenever something goes wrong. (Long story behind this one.) Monad mains Ninja and Monk, and also is known to run "Find the Monad" scavenger hunts which we are still perfecting. In real life Anthony currently lives in PA, but that may change as he tends to move around alot for work. He has an excellent work ethic which borders on from my perspective a workaholic as he has held as many as 3 jobs simultaneously all while still helping out his FC mates wherever possible. He's also an anime fanatic and some of his current favorite shows are Game of Thrones, Walking Dead, and The Strain. I should know because we discuss them all the time, while trying to avoid spoilers for FC mates. Due to real life commitments including a 7C baby on the way Anthony has stepped aside from the staff to focus more on his own goals for now with his scant playtime.
Former Vizier and Small Council - Nik Elz FB - Curtis Fowler
"Hi I'm Nik Elz, and I was the original Vizier of the Free Company. I was the Jafar (a nice one) to the Sultan. The vizier positions are the 2nd in command and de'facto leaders when Ziro Skystrider is away. I have recently stepped aside to rotate in another council member Sassie, to Vizier as real life has taken more of my free time. I have been with the FC since day one, and I have been playing with Ziro since the FFXI days a decade ago. Sassie who was a long serving Council member, (Marrissa) is my IRL gf.
I am an avid gamer. I have a collection of games and systems from days past, and have been gaming since the NES days. I am also a part of the PC master race as well as own all the current gen consoles, so there are no systems I have not played on or currently play on. I try to make as many game conventions as possible. I do attend school still working on a "trade" degree in Network Engineering, so if you have any Networking questions, or are one yourself, please feel free to hit me up, or allow me to pick your brain.
Saying that, I can be missing from the game for a long periods of time (long in MMO terms is usally 2-3 days). My income is also salary based so I am technically working 24/7.I say all this to give you some insight as to why I may be silent in game, or missing from time to time.If you see me in game please feel free to whisper a {Hello!} to me."
Former Head Craftsman - Noble Walker FB - Christopher Lawson
Chris Lawson, or Noble Walker as you may know him was our very first officially titled Head Craftsman of the FC. He was tasked with keeping track of what mastercrafters in the FC are up to, and helping point them in the direction of our needs at any time, should they want to help where we need crafts the most. He worked closely with the people of Mastercrafter rank as well as our Quartermaster rank, and reported directly to me. Chris was another person recruited via facebook, from another server who was looking for a much more integrated home. He has been fantastic ever since he arrived, immediately throwing himself in the thick of things for events and taking part in raids as well. He immediately started offering crafting services to guildmates and is honest, loyal and dependable. When it came time to realize we needed a crafter to put in charge of / help organize, the other crafters, he was one of the first names to come up.
Chris is taking a leave from the game due to health complications from Fibromyalgia , which can be very painful and debilitating and when it flares up it can leave him in alot of pain and unable to log in and enjoy the game and our company. When he is around however he is more than happy to help with any and all requests and is always looking to be of help. Chris is also a comic book junkie and horror movie addict, so for anyone who shares those similar interests he loves to discuss them.
Former Field General - Tryl Lunafell FB - Jonathan Faugeaux
Tryl, aka Jon is the husband of Kiery IRL and one of our Field General's aka Raid Captains. He is very analytical in his approach to raiding and very much a "stat guy". If you need advice on cross class skills or an honest assessment of raid readiness he's your guy. Just expect and honest answer and not an answer that is meant to put down, but give you a fair answer on what to work on. He is very well versed in the Relic Quest chain and was the first FC member to like a maniac make a charge right to it. He also is a Fisherman in game and really seems to enjoy that as a side hobby from crushing raid content and Primals. In life as well as being married to Kiery he has two small children and is a programmer currently who worked on the new DOOM game soon to be greedily gobbled up by the masses!
