About

The White Gladiolus Society is a social club catering to Zoluren's citizens and all friends of the province. Our main purpose is to host social events across Zoluren, from balls and galas to game nights, shopping faires, and much more!

We aren't a sanctioned Order, so there aren't any conflicts if you're already a part of other groups or clubs.

Membership comes with a few perks, including a free trustee level membership to the Raven's Court.

Members are also encouraged to branch out and grow their own hosting and roleplay capabilities, utilizing the Society's resources. If you have ideas for events or projects to tackle, give a shout and let's do what we can to get the ball rolling!

How to Join

Contact Allye, either in game or via Discord at Allyebot.

White Gladiolus Greenhouse

A gathering spot and venue for events, the White Gladiolus Greenhouse is located outside Crossing's west gate, at the edge of the Lake of Dreams. It is open to the public.

[Mycthengelde, Knoll]
Here at the highest point of the knoll, you are met by a cool breeze rising up from the hollow. Tiny fireflies meander through the darkness, congregating more heavily near the shimmering trees and moonlit lake.
You also see a scintillating glass greenhouse and a rough trench.
Obvious paths: south.

Daytime Description:

[Lake of Dreams, White Gladiolus Greenhouse]
Nestled between Mycthengelde and the Lake of Dreams, a verdant hollow is encased in glass to form a greenhouse that is filled with frilled gladiolus blossoms. Long tables placed at the center of the building are dressed in silk and ivy, each lit by rows of flickering candles. Gentle ripples drift across the silvery surface of the nearby water, evidence of the stately procession of a pair of graceful white swans.
You also see a small raised stage with a gilded podium, a wooden dance floor sheltered beneath a white silk canopy and a signup list.
Obvious exits: out.

Night Description:

[Lake of Dreams, White Gladiolus Greenhouse]
The deep, heady scent of gladiolus blossoms lingers in the night air, pervading a verdant lakeside hollow encased in glass and cloaked in darkness. Rows of candles throw dancing shadows across long tables placed at the center of the building. Flickering fireflies bob gently to and fro, their mesmerizing light reflected upon the placid surface of the nearby water.
You also see a small raised stage with a gilded podium, a wooden dance floor sheltered beneath a white silk canopy and a signup list.
Obvious exits: out.

>look stage
White silk curtains frame the modest stage, and at the corner of the platform rests a stately lectern.  Engraved upon its front panel is a crest depicting a pair of mirrored swans with their wings displayed grandly, haloed by a wreath of acacia branches limned in delicate gold leaf.
>look floor
Affixed to one edge of the brightly polished veneer, a bronze plaque is neatly engraved to read, "Property of the Dancing Swan Catering Company."
>look gladiolus
Ruffled petals form an array of blooms along the slender stalks, burgeoning amongst vibrant green leaves.
>get gladiolus
You pick a Zoluren white gladiolus.
>smell my gladiolus
You sniff at a Zoluren white gladiolus and inhale a thick, mesmeric floral scent that gives you just a hint of a pleasant head rush.

Society Pin

TAP: a tiny silver gladiolus surrounded by a cluster of buds
LOOK: Looking closer at the silver flower spike, you see the figure of a round-cheeked silver fae.  Propping its feet upon one of the larger buds, it has one arm curled around the stem as it strains to reach the ruffled edge of one of the main bloom's lower petals.
