Employments







If you want your character to take on an employment, this is the place to request it. ICly, they'll have to send a letter to Wedge, Biggs and Jessie who will then have their request proceeded and forwarded to the employers for each respective jobs. By default, all Jobs are part-time, but characters can chose to work more than required. All jobs are paid of course, depending on how much time they spend working (except going to school, this is not paid). Some jobs have requirements-- If your character doesn't fit the requirements, they cannot take on the job.

Characters can start their own business as well! For this, they'll have to defend their case with the NPCs, who will then decide whether to give them a premise or not. There is a form below to start a business. If you want for your character to be to be hired in a business started by another character, please contact the player of said character. Characters start with the base salary, and every month they can get + 500 Gil (or + 1000 if they participate in the month's event) until they reach the maximum. Unless mention otherwise, each promotion equal + 5 000 Gil to their salary, regardless of the maximum (meaning a Chief Cleaner could get 21 000 Gil a month).

For certain of these employments, there may be promotion. It is faster to get promotions if your character was already doing this job back home (for example, soldier). However, everyone can do it. There are requirements to obtain a promotion besides times, namely participating in events and making posts proving your character actually do this job. The Numbers are a total; you need to have six logs total to get the final rank in the military, not six new logs since the last rank.

She'll be quitting her job at the Library to work full-time at the lab. As a related question, however - it says in the description of the Crystal Researcher Job that in order for Symbiosis to work, you have to work full-time as a Crystal Researcher. Does that refer to the Job itself, to the promotion level on the employment chart labeled as such, or to both?

Character: Reno
Business: Reno wants to open a dual Host/Maid Cafe and Nightclub; "Honey Delight" and after-hours "Reincarnation." He's hoping to find at least a medium-sized building to accommodate comfy booth- and couch-style seating surrounding an open area that can be used as a dance floor.
Argument: A host club/maid cafe is the perfect way to combat negative perceptions and rumors of the Heroes of Light! Anyone can meet with a staff host of their choice for a full hour of undivided attention. Besides -- there is a historic pattern of boom in the entertainment business during times of other economic depression or crisis. People need an escape, just for a little bit. The world being swallowed by the Calamity is a pretty big crisis. Helping people relax and unwind will ultimately make them more productive citizens by maintaining a healthy stress level!
Hiring: Yes! Reno wants to hire hosts of course, and kitchen staff. He'll bartend himself at night if he has to, he doesn't want to poach off the Saloon.
