FAQ


Is La Vipère a brothel venue?
No. We don’t have private bookings of any kind. The hosts we have are solely for SFW RP in the common areas of the venue.
Does La Vipère have a VIP program?
We do, see more here
Is La Vipère a formal venue? Is there a dress code?
It is meant to have an upscale feel but there is no official dress code for guests! Just be fully dressed!
Is La Vipère a crime theme venue?La Vipère is not criminally aligned but we are also not anti-criminal. Meaning that the owner and management will most likely look the other way if criminal activity is discussed within the venue. Some criminal activity happening within the venue such as drug deals would obviously be fine considering we serve drugs here. Other criminal activities would be on a case by case basis. Overall, if something is disruptive to the event and venue itself or is harmful to staff or other guests, it would not be allowed. If that's something you have OOC consent to RP with someone and you wish to do so at La Vipère, please take that to tells or party chat or elsewhere to help us keep our event running smoothly and to ensure comfort of everyone else present.Do I have to join the FC to work as staff at La Vipère?
Nope! You only have to be in our Discord server and our CWLS.

Age: Rude to ask
Gender/Pronouns: Male - He/Him
Sexuality: Gay
Bio: How Ives and Vallerin came to be acquainted is something of a mystery that neither of them seem to wish to fully disclose. But for Vallerin himself, it came as quite a fortuitous opportunity as he wished to make for himself a place in Ishgardian society after being "away for some time", as he puts it.Charismatic, lively and bold, Vallerin makes for quite a captivating host. Though those glowing red eyes and fangs are a bit strange...

Age: ?????
Gender/Pronouns: Male - He/Him
Sexuality: Pansexual (Preference for Masc-Presenting characters)
Bio: On the surface, Zamis is a happy guy who loves making jokes, especially when it has to do with his lack of sight. How does he bartend as well as he does with that eye cover on? Well, that would be a good conversation starter! He's happy to strike up talk about a wide range of subjects, from the complexities of politics and science to what the best fruit is (strawberries, obviously.) He loves his job as a bartender and a manager, and is always looking forward to hearing the stories of passing strangers.Though, you'll find he doesn't delve too deep into himself if asked. Very few know who he really is, always vague and avoidant if someone tries to breach the surface. But, as he's said- "Most usually have something good to say, at least. And those that don't probably have a good reason."

Host


Cheren Sombremont

Name: Cheren Viauxcour Sombremont
Age: 38
Gender/Pronouns: Male, He/Him
Sexuality: Gay (Panromantic, Homosexual)
Bio: An odd and eccentric albino Viera, Cheren hails from Doman before the days of the Garlean occupation. He moved to Eorzea in his teenage years and has adapted to much of the culture, but Ishgard remains an enigma to him. Recently moving to Ishgard with his two fiancés to be near one’s family, he has many questions about the once-secluded city-state. As such, the curious bunny may ask you some… potentially impolite questions, but all of it is in genuine curiosity and good faith. Outside of Vipere he works as a healer both with and without magic, cultivating a rare plant by the name of Chasia to create strong healing medicine. If you’re asking the right questions, you might find that the bunny has an odd fixation with death, and even necromancy…

Host


Joachim Chatelfort

Name: Joachim Chatelfort
Age: 270
Gender/Pronouns: Male, He/Him, they/them
Sexuality: Ace
Bio: A half Viera, half Elezen man, taking more of the Viera features. Born 3/4 vampire and 1/4 siren, Joachim learns quickly at an early age that his 'song' can animate the dead. He is a curious man, innocent at heart. A skeleton cat by the name of Mr. Jitters usually accompanies him. Very rarely do his feet ever touch the ground, as he glides along, hovering just a few ilms from the ground.

Host


Re'em

Name: Re'em
Age: 33
Gender/Pronouns: He/Him
Sexuality: Gay
Bio: He won't tell you much but tiny snippets of a life outside La Vipère can be found when you chat with the man; Ishgardian, church going, disdain of nobility, highly educated. So what is there to know about Re'em? A kind elezen man who listens well and speaks softly but firmly. He enjoys literature, history, more than one glass of wine, and has an intimate knowledge of scripture. A strange fondness for unicorns.

Host


Fane Gray

Name: Fane Gray
Age: 26 and holding
Gender/Pronouns: Male , He/him
Sexuality: Firmly homosexual
Bio: Fane is gregarious and flirty, seemingly happy to chat with just about anyone. Quick to pull out the pet names and free with affectionate touches, by the end of a conversation one might be left feeling like they'd known him all their life. He's happy to talk about most subjects and surprisingly astute for someone so off-handedly flighty. He's tiny, but at less than five fulms he's ponze for ponze as much sass as someone twice his height. His fragility is painted over with kohl, sparkly jewelry, and a healthy dose of denial.

Host


Satzwyda 'Willow' Rymmtrachwyn

Name: Satzwyda 'Willow' Rymmtrachwyn
Age: 23
Gender/Pronouns: Female - She/Her

He enjoys meeting new people. Need a drinking buddy or someone to have a smoke with? Soka is your man for the task, ever willing to take care of his guests in anything they may need.

Security


Sascha Roulemet (The Wyrm)

Name: Sascha Roulemet (The Wyrm)
Age: 35
Gender/Pronouns: Regular Dude
Sexuality: Yes
Bio: Tall, dark, and dumb as hell. Sascha is a bastard from the Brume, and has been through more than he will ever discuss. He had been a Temple Knight but was stripped of his title and discharged very suddenly. He tells everyone who asks a different story as to why.

Security


Collinoix "Robin" Robineaux

Name: Collinoix "Robin" Robineaux
Age: 42
Gender/Pronouns: Male
Sexuality: Yes
Bio: Accountant for La Vipere, Robin works hard to keep the spreadsheets neat and error free. There was this one time on an expense report he found a place where someone had put two commas instead of just one, that was a trip. It had been a lot of work to go back through the receipts for the whiskey, and the receipts for the gin, and the receipts for the champagne....
Anyway the commas weren't even related to the receipts because nobody uses commas on receipts those are all periods and then somehow his abacus was missing a bead so he had to go all the way down to the basement to see if there were more beads somewhere there was a lot of dust and...

Security


Lirya Ovasch

Name: Lirya Ovasch
Age: Late 20's
Gender/Pronouns: Female - She/Her
Sexuality: Bisexual
Bio: Quiet Hrothgar who only speaks up when it's absolutely necessary. Rather on the short side for her species but she makes up for it by working out whenever possible, whether that be in battle as a Warrior or just on the side. She did come from a village near Bozja that was destroyed, being the reason why she showed up in Eorzea in the first place, so there are a lot of repressed memories in her head.

Bartender


Damien Velenoso

Name: Damien Velenoso
Age: Older than you, certainly
Gender/Pronouns: Male, He/Him
Sexuality: Homosexual
Bio: At the very first glance, one would easily notice that Damien isn't quite like other people. He sports horns, but isn't an Au Ra. He has pointed ears, but isn't an Elezen either. Skin as red as cherries, eyes pools of gold swirling in deepest black that seem to stare straight through the soul and an endlessly flirtatious, alluring aura about him, just what is this enigmatic creature? Ask, and Damien will gladly tell--though, only if you're willing to tell him things in turn. A story for a story, tale for a tale, all things must be given in equal measure to this denizen of the darkness. If you're daring enough, however, you may just find yourself in for an experience like no other.

Bartender


Ambrose Delaroux

Name: Ambrose Delaroux
Age: Of the “Don’t ask, don’t tell variety”
Gender/Pronouns: Male, he/him
Sexuality: Pan, with a slight masc lean
Bio: Ostensibly Ambrose is an Archon and a professor that adores speaking at length about his love of botany and all the fun little ways flora can be used in alchemy and pharmacology and perhaps even other means. With silver at his temples, and the fine lines that crinkle the corners of his eyes when his lopsided and boyish smile appears, he gives the impression of one past the age of boyish mischief. Yet despite his impeccable manners, there is a teasing demeanor to Ambrose that makes an appearance now and again. On the surface, that is. Little is known of his past or his personal life beyond his job, though he enjoys a good conversation and seems to thoroughly enjoy his new found love of serving up the delights to be found for guests at La Vipère.

Bartender


Théo Devereaux

Name: Théo Devereaux
Age: It's not polite to ask
Gender/Pronouns: Any
Sexuality: Pan, with a masc lean
Bio: With a sly smile and cold eyes, Théo is a mercurial Duskwight that comes AND goes as he pleases. While there isn't much known of the man that hails from Ishgard and has seemingly bottomless pockets, he is often seen with a rather large Wildwood in tow; he is nonetheless a decadent man that seeks the finer things in life. In turn he applies this to each drink he pours, or hookah he assembles. Whether it's simple conversation or providing quality service, Théo is sure to delight and surprise.
