Balmung Free Company/Linkshell List 2.0

Following the success of the former Balmung Linkshell List and the disappearance of TheVedis I decided to continue the work and add an updated thread. This way current Balmung residents can see who is still active and new players, as well as those thinking about transferring to Balmung can see what's up on our lovely server.

Free Company or Linkshell Name: Azure Lore
Type of FC/LS: Casual Social/Events
Leader(s) and Contacts: Aegis Aybara (LDR), Claudeus Hikari, Coco Estheim, Edy Sormr, Rekko Lykko
Number of Active Member: 12+
Website: http://Azurelore.shivtr.com
Description: Azure Lore is a social shell from Version 1. We are a group or friends that have played together and laughed together for several years. We have been at times spread across several shells, but we always kept in contact. To this end we created a linkshell purely for ease of communication while we all did endgame in more serious shells. As the months passed we started doing the occasional, ad-hoc events then gradually built up to planned, organised events to make sure we were all up to date with endgame gear.
Through all this, the shell did not lose its casual, social ethos: You can be in as many shells as you want, you do not have to do raids with us and there is no DKP for raids. All we ask is you drop into the shell from time to time to shoot the breeze with us.
