Announcing the FINAL FANTASY XI 11th Vana’versary NPC Popularity Contest!

Leave a comment
Vana'diel is a land full of adventure, filled with duties that lead players into encountering many memorable NPCs. These characters often leave lasting impressions―everyone has a favorite NPC, whether the mischievous Shantotto, or the foul-mouthed Prishe, or even Melyon in Selbina, who just can't seem to get enough La Theine Cabbage. We'd like to add more flavor to Vana'diel lore, so tell us which NPC is your favorite and what type of story you'd like to see them appear in next!

Eleventh Vana’versary Abyssea and Atma Axtravaganza!

Leave a comment
Do you find yourself wishing you could go on some more swashbuckling adventures with Joachim? Has the urge to get swallowed up by a cavernous maw and spit out in dimensions unknown been eating away at you? Then spice up your Vana'dielian experience by experiencing all three Abyssea battle add-on scenarios—Vision of Abyssea, Scars of Abyssea, and Heroes of Abyssea—for free!

This event will be held from Sunday, August 11, 2013 to Friday, October 11, 2013.
*Dates and times are subject to change.

However, what sort of eleventh vana'versary celebration would that be if adventurers had to visit Abyssea empty-handed? That's why, in addition to all three battle scenarios, explorers taking advantage of this opportunity will receive nine types of atma, one piece of lunar abyssite, fistfuls of cruor, and a visitant aura bonus!

Start cleaning the teeth of your nearest maw, for more information on the Abyssea and Atma Axtravaganza will be made available in the following days.

Melvien’s Personal Reflections: The Council Meeting and its Aftermath

Leave a comment
I hereby bid you welcome to the estate of the esteemed Melvien de Malecroix. Have you business with my master?
I see. I regret to inform you that he has been called away on a matter of utmost importance.

He's a bit too busy, you say? As much as it pains me to agree, it is true that my master has been preoccupied of late. I fear that his admirable work ethic may yet be the death of him.

I advised him to consider taking a brief respite from his duties, but in response, he smiled and brandished a fistful of paper in my face, insisting that the most relaxing reprieve comes after a hard day's work.

I did manage to steal a glance at his manuscript, which appeared to be a personal journal of sorts. Fancy this: a stone-faced man, always steeped in his work, spending his evenings writing down his most personal feelings and thoughts. I would find the entire proposition preposterous had not I witnessed it with my very eyes. I shamefully admit that I would give a month's salary to steal one more glance...

Of course, I know better than to betray my master and lay hand on something so scandalous. Yet when I inquired as to the nature of the documents, he brushed me off, saying they were but personal musings on the state of the colonization effort.

<Sigh>. I should simply be content with the knowledge that jotting down introspections serves as an outlet for him to relieve stress.

Read on for a glimpse into the mind of the esteemed Melvin de Malecroix, Minister of Finance and champion of the colonization cause.
