Time until next opening

Tribe is a Free Company and SFW Social RP Jazz Lounge. Technically open all hours, Tribe is NPC-staffed most of the week, though on alternating Thursday evenings is actively staffed. Visit our Venue, Menu and Staff pages for details about the jazz bar, and the Facilities page for other RP locations in our Private Chambers!
Tribe Jazz Lounge

Tribe is a Jazz Lounge in a speakeasy style. Exposed brick walls and a dark, classy atmosphere with a stage, coat area, and multiple other facilities in the private chambers.

Set across two floors, with a stage on each and comfortable seating, plenty of options for groups large and small, and attentive staff who operate the bar and roam the rooms, checking on patrons.

The stage, with its upright piano, microphone and speakers of Garlean design, lend themselves to amplifying live performances. The bar's Watch2gether plays Jazz music during opening nights. During off-hours, the orchestrion is loaded with Eorzea's jazziest tracks.

ALL GIL IS IN RP ONLY! THE DRINKS ARE FICTIONAL, THUS SO IS THE EXCHANGE.Tribe is a volunteer gig - we staff this place because it is fun to do so, and so we don't expect anything for the pleasure. However, we do accept bribes voluntary tips, if you feel like supporting future events, expansions and redecorations.
Private Chamber Facilities
Tribe was originally founded as a place of varied function, for relaxation, private meetings, training, even as a place to stay for those in need. As such, multiple, casually usable RP locations exist in our Private Chambers.

Venue Rules
Tribe is a Safe For Work venue. Please keep ERP out of /say and /em (what you willingly do in party chat or tells with those who consent to it is up to you, if you are a recipient of unwanted attention in that regard, though, please report them to me (Discord: AdonisNimbus) with a screenshot of the offending unwanted message so I can be sure I'm waring or banning people for genuine problems.As for other etiquette, drama is welcome INcharacter, but our IC staff will eject violent visitors, just like a real bar. Characters who serially offend will be banned, you are welcome to do so intentionally for the sake of plot with no hard feelings OOC! Phoenicia is fiercely protective of the friendliness of her space but as a player, good drama is good drama.
Players who create out of character drama are not welcome, three strikes, you're out.Please also respect that this is a roleplaying venue. Casual roleplayers and non-roleplayers are welcome, but please bear in mind roleplayers might not interact with non-roleplayers, to maintain their immersion. It isn't personal. If you're looking to get into roleplaying but aren't sure where to start, please feel free to /tell a member of staff with questions, or come join our discord and we can continue to help!In light of the above, please use Online Status tags to represent your immersion if possible:
Looking for Party = "Please approach me, I am looking for new RP or am new and unsure how to start RPing."
Busy = "I am actively avoiding roleplay, I just want to take a look around."
Role-playing = "I'm in character, whether casually or immersively."
Anyone without a tag will be treated tentatively as though they are in-character unless people are told otherwise.Please do not use the Looking to Meld Materia
tag; this tag is for staff, so you can always spot us in the crowd! Please also keep /shout chat free for OOC announcements.Please use /yell if you are using the stage, or interacting with or heckling a stage performance (if it's the kind of performance that warrants it, or if you want to RP causing some IC drama as above - use your discernment: if you see a comedian, heckling is kind of expected, if they're a pianist maybe not, unless of course creating drama is your goal, in which case expect IC warnings)Speaking of IC and OOC, for those new to RP, most people will use "quote marks" for speech In Character, and it's common practise to mark Out Of Character comments, either by prefacing OOC: or putting the OOC comments in ((double parentheses)), so if you're wondering why people are using such markings, that's why!Weapons are invited to be removed. There is a cloak area downstairs, under the stairs, where you can store your weapon in the locked Armoire in character. Out of character, please hide your weapon either before entry or after visiting the cloak area if you choose to do so. This is advisory, as for example, we respect characters who have sworn to their weapons, or who have reason to believe they cannot be safe without it. Phoenicia is pretty accepting of that, she just asks that people not draw their weapons in the bar.Tribe is pet-friendly. If your character has an in-character pet, you are welcome to keep your minion out. For non RP visitors and observers, though, please unsummon minions. We don't want the bar, tea house and spa overrun with animals nobody can interact with! Also in the unlikely event that we have an unprecedented full house, minions count toward maximum occupancy, so bear it in mind.
We are affiliated with Silver Valkyrie Events and Endless Nights Events, and so also follow all SVE and ENE rules! For more info visit our affiliates page.
