Welcome to the Lavender Collective,  Femme-Only 'Talent Agency' & Safehouse within the FFXIV RP Universe    founded by  Lavasha cen Apicius   

The Lavender Collective (TLC)

    To most onlookers, The Lavender Collective presents itself as a refined talent acquisition agency and refuge for feminine-presenting Eorzeans forever changed by war, loss, and the Final Days. Members hone crafts, artistry, combat prowess, and social influence within an elegant, supportive environment. If you are weary and require safety, there is a bedchamber among these long halls awaiting you. Rediscover yourself at your own pace as a regular member of the house, thriving in an establishment that eerily has their pulse on all happenings outside of its domain.     Yet beneath the lavender-scented veneer lies something sharper: A discreet underworld organization called The Violet Hand. Hands deal in espionage, information brokerage, recovery operations, and morally ambiguous contracts. This hidden division operates across Eorzea from discreet holdings in every major province, taking on work that requires silence, discretion, and moral flexibility. A Violet Hand can choose to have sole charge of their crafts ranging from prisoner extraction, assassinations, whispered tongue, butchery, torture and more.. Members who step into this role are not forced—they choose the danger, understanding that beauty can be as lethal as steel.     At the center stands Lavasha cen Apicius—self-exiled Pureblood Garlean, architect of the Collective, and a figure as enigmatic as the organization she commands. Visually appearing as an augmented Viera, Lavasha embodies TLC’s duality: mercy and menace, refuge and ruthlessness. What began as a haven for the discarded has become a power woven quietly through Eorzea’s underbelly. Whether one seeks safety from the world or the means to shape it from the shadows, The Lavender Collective offers both—asking only loyalty, discretion, and the will to survive.

Expectations

  • While TLC is a Free Company, ALL players within North American Data Centers (including non-RP players) are encouraged to join~

  • Members must be 21+ OOC and play a female or femme-presenting character. No OOC gender identity is required—only IC presentation and comfort within a femme-centered space.

  • Characters must be designed with lore awareness appropriate to Eorzea and its surrounding regions.

  • What is spoken, planned, or witnessed within the Collective remains within the Collective. TLC operates on trust, privacy, and quiet reputations—IC and OOC discretion is non-negotiable.

  • Racism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, misogyny, harassment, or political discourse have no place within TLC spaces. Violations result in immediate removal.

  • All roleplay—casual, dark, romantic, or spicy—must be consensual, negotiated, and clearly communicated. Content warnings and boundaries are expected, respected, and enforced.

  • TLC storytelling may include violence, crime, manipulation, moral ambiguity, and adult subject matters. Members must be comfortable navigating these themes responsibly and maturely.

  • By joining TLC, members acknowledge that while the Collective may appear soft at a glance, it is decisive, protective, and sharp beneath the surface. Those who remain do so willingly—and with intent.

Official Violet Hand Associates

"The Violet Hands are those we have to thank for the protections offered and wealth dispersed within this domain. This is a group where servitude is chosen, not demanded, and where teamwork is honed into an art form through discipline, loyalty, and razor-sharp expertise. Power is cultivated while the rest of the Collective can rest easy in its protection. The women of service understand that true control comes from hunger, precision, and knowing exactly when to bare one’s teeth or manipulate the room around them. Those who feel the pull of The Violet Hands are drawn not to safety, but to becoming damning—and formidable.""To walk this path is to seek your own flourishing through proximity to mastery. Members watch as the women beside them sharpen both blade and wit, refine their crafts, and turn desire into currency. From bespoke creations the wealthy cannot resist, to skills honed deliberately beyond the reach of the uninitiated world.. Every effort feeds a growing legend. The Violet Hands operate where discretion is law and excellence is expected—where talent is cultivated in shadow until it is undeniable. This is ambition tempered by service, growth born from structure, and confidence forged through purpose.""Whispers of The Violet Hands are meant to travel through underground channels, private rooms, and be uttered carefully through chosen lips. Until the name carries weight in every corner worth knowing. If you feel called to mine sanctum and to rise beneath the guidance of a woman who knows how to wield devotion as power, then you already understand the first step: You do not apply. You approach. And all such requests are directed, with intention and respect, to myself, N’sarha Ruvya and Zaereah Galeborne."Yours with camaraderie,
Lavasha cen Apicius - The Scarlet Countess.
