    Guidelines


    //OOC// Our rules are fairly simple -- please do not sell or write out anything NSFW at the market, and please treat each other with respect.
    Everything else is fair game within reason. It isn't a black market but that does not prevent you or your characters from making shady deals. Treat it like a real market -- sometimes underhanded things happen. The IC rules are just for flavor and fun.
    //IC//:Rules of the Seaside Imports Market, as Sanctioned by the Maelstrom and local Kobold and Sahagin Delegates.No fire magicks on the docks. The wood is old, the sea is watchful, and the Sahagin don't take too kindly to scorched planks. Neither do the Maelstrom.Do not engage the Namazu in trade debates.
    Their bartering rituals are legally binding and baffling. You will end up owning a cursed teacup.
    No Summoning in the Stalls.
    Leave your carbuncles and egis at the gate, unless they are there to shop. An exception is made for Maelstrom and Yellowjacket officers keeping the peace.

    //OOC//: A retread of Moraby markets past, we seek to intertwine the various roleplayers of different datacenters together to allow creative ideas to cross borders. We will have no limit on sign-ups for stalls, and work to ensure that our market attendees enjoy their time.It is our hope that this monthly market will continue to facilitate the intermingling of the NA, EU, JP and OCE roleplaying crowds, and help to continue to foster interest in open world roleplaying events in FFXIV.//IC//: An initiative of the mercantile guilds of Limsa Lominsa to bolster trade and commerce in the wake of the end of the Garlean conflict, the Moraby Imports Market is a monthly event held to allow trade and commerce to flourish. A portion of proceeds from the event is pocketed by mercantile guilds and goes towards paying for more shipwright work.
