The Charyb Nightclub

Greetings Ladies, Gentlemen, Aurin Matria, Mordesh Reapers, and Granok Soldiers!

As per recent announcements, the Charyb is moving over to a new location and renaming! Only this time, we need YOUR help to name it! Thus we're holding a contest for the best name for our plot, in which you can have a chance to win CREDD for your creativity!

Here's the criteria as follows:

Originality - Something nice and original is always appreciated. Of course, original names are probably hardest to come by, since a ton of name combinations are already out there, so we won't be looking at this too strictly.

Theme Appropriate - The plot has distinct aesthetic to it (Pictures of which can be viewed HERE and HERE). Try and figure something out in line with how the plot appears! As a mostly underground club/bar/lounge with computerized Dome imagery (this is the plot’s main gimmick) and inspiration gleaned from the underwater city of Rapture from the Bioshock series, it's up to you to decide what would be appropriate.

Catchiness - The name should be something catchy, something that's sure to get people's attention when it's mentioned!

We'll evaluate the list of names through these criteria and pick the best one among them! To enter, simply send a mail with your name to Alexander Darrow on the Jabbit server. The name will then be noted on a separate file and critiqued. Please note that only one name per player is allowed - alts are forbidden from entering multiple names.

“Bigger and Better just got Bombastic.”

“Change up the sky with the flick of a button.”

Since it’s been a while on the teaser photo fronts, have a few stills of our current WIP project that we’ve been hinting at for months! It’s taken a damn long amount of toiling to get every piece in place, and as of writing it’s not even quite done yet, BUT:

The Charyb is proud to present our newest, and so far grandest endeavour, the unnamed Underground Sky Dome, created as a humongous Nightclub catering to the more rave and underground-inclined denizens of Thayd! Featuring all-new Bar facilities, lounge areas, a mix of modern space and classic architecture, and a special computerized sky that changes with a mere press of the button, this mini-metropolis is sure to keep you entertained throughout the night!

To commemorate the new club and our move, we are going to hold a naming contest for our swanky new establishment! The winner of this contest receives a special prize for their creativity (An in-game one, mind you!). How to enter? Well, that’s going to be information for a future post! However, we would like to take the moment to inform you that you MUST be on Jabbit (EU) to be eligible to enter and receive the prize.

“The Mystery Continues.”

What’s this? Who knows! Maybe it’s that fabled gateway to the stars, or perhaps it’s a door to something different entirely? One thing is clear though - something is beyond that door. Find out soon!

The Gallery - August 15, 1666 AE

PSA: The Gallery will be replacing the Newsletter, with panoramic images of Saturday night’s events and parties! The old posts will still have their newsletter tag, but they’ll also get a gallery tag slapped on to make them easy to find as well. Here are stills from last night’s wild dance party!

“The Gateway to the Stars opens soon.”

And with that, folks, the Charyb Tumblr is back in business! Expect Gallery pictures later today and a few updates on this mysterious new teaser and general club things in the coming weeks!

Pre-Vacation Recording G3TNGR4DY

“Well! Here I am, ready for my extended, paid vacation (or fired, as ‘Nana dear would call it). That girl’s as sweet as glowmelons, but her logic baffles me sometimes. She loves me and I love her however, so I’m not complaining too much. I’ll have to send her postcards while I’m gone, she’d love to see all the various sights as I wander around Nexus and the Off-world with my trusty grinder.

I’ve put on my old biking gear (That’s been gathering dust) for the occasion. Old polymesh, but still sturdy despite the by-gone years. I bet John would’ve loved to see this. Saturday will be my last shift at the Charyb before I take for the stars. Some farewells will be had in that time!

Riley”

Tomorrow’s Date Night folks, remember you can still sign-up by whispering Riley Wintermoss in-game or sending her a mail!

Charyb Newsletter - June 28, 1666AE

Night of Violent Confrontations!

The opening night of June 28th saw a surge in attendance - to date, the Charyb had gotten the biggest amount of it’s patrons yet, topping total attendance to a whopping 30+ of various personalities within the club. These included prominent figures such as the owner of the Red Herring, Dynnagorn Firefly, and Jaldar Darkstar, owner of the Darkstar Tavern, and Jenna Starleaf, performing talent. Unfortunately, the merrymaking and the party was cut short as an unknown female Aurin collapsed into a crying mess at the dance-floor, followed by a violent confrontation between a Mordesh and human at the bar. The grounds for the female Aurin’s distress are as of yet unknown, although witness reports implicate heavy trauma as the suspect. It is known, however, that the violence at the bar was started through a spat over politeness, culminating in the Mordesh smashing a glass over the human female’s neck. Their names remain anonymous. General Manager Wintermoss, along with the help of a human male, managed to subdue them and had them thrown out after a short while. The Aurin remained in a catatonic state until the arrival of her Mordesh caretaker, upon where she was picked up and taken away from the premises. The states of the Mordesh, the Exile human, and the Aurin remain unknown.

Featured Drinks of the Week #2: Loftite Leviathan

Welcome to the second edition of the Charyb’s own Featured Drink of the Week article! In these once-a-week articles, we aim to explain a bit on the origins and ingredients of some of our most popular cocktail specials! To start off this series, we’ll be beginning with the Loftite Leviathan, an extra… heavenly kind of cocktail!

Description: Loftite Leviathan is a glowing, purple-blue liquor drink made from Gallowhead Vodka, Glowmelon Juice, and… you guessed it, Loftite Crystals! This cool, unorthodox drink derives it’s special signature glow from the Loftite crystals that are contained within the recipe, sugared up to add a sweet taste to the cocktail. When first served, the cocktail gives off a mild, purple-ish soft light - the colour of pure, refined Loftite; However, if one lets the drink be for a couple of minutes, you’ll start noticing the quick build-up of blue, unrefined crystals from the Loftite contained within the drink.

Preparation: Loftite Leviathan can be quite tricky to get right without causing catastrophic anti-gravity accidents, so many bartenders take caution when handling large amounts of dissolved Loftite solutions. First, Gallowhead Vodka is chilled at a temperature of -10 degrees Celsius, before being served into a mixing cup alongside Glowmellon juice and dissolved Loftite. Two teaspoons of sugar is then added to the mixing cup, before being thoroughly shaken into a crystal clear cocktail mixture and served in a long-stemmed glass. Allow the consumer to witness the formation of Loftite crystals above the drink, before serving with a curly straw. Ice cubes optional.

Alcohol Content: 15-20% Owing to Gallowhead Vodka.

Origins: Loftite Leviathan, perhaps unsurprisingly, comes from the region of Algoroc, created by a chance tryst between an XAS chemist and a regular old bartender. The myth goes that the Chemist and Bartender had been having a spat over the uses of Loftite, before eventually (and accidentally) combining their knowledge to create the perfect cocktail. Since then, the Loftite Leviathan has been popular among Exiles and even Dominion citizens, prized as one of Nexus’s first homegrown drinks.

Our Recommendation: Ho boy, where do we start with this one? Loftite Leviathan’s our go-to drink for a ‘lil relaxation and daydreaming on Cloud 9, so if you’re looking to have a bit of time off to think and participate in make-believe, this gal’s the one you want. It’s smooth, it makes you feel light-headed, and it’s taste is “heavenly” and unmatched. As with the Berry Surprise though, we don’t recommend drinking lots of this stuff - if you know anything about Loftite and physics, you’ll know that higher concentrations means a higher risk of being affected by it’s anti-gravity-inducin’ effects, so unless you wanna wind up jumpin’ through the roof and causin’ hundreds of gold in property damages, you’ll wanna keep yourself to a bare minimum of one or two glasses. Not more. DEFINITELY NOT MORE*.

Keep a look out for the next article, folks! We’ll have more featured drinks to show you in the coming weeks!

That’s right folks, the Charyb will be open tonight at 8PM BST (9PM CEST, 7PM GMT) and welcoming people for drinks and dancing!
