Is a veteran of the good ol’ bad ol’ days of FFXIV 1.0. He has played MMOs since he was a tender fifth grader starting with Ultima Online. A lover of lore and setting, Eorzea has kept him enchanted ever since the game’s first announcement. An affable fellow, he enjoys making new friends and connections whether in video games or in the industry where he works and plays on a daily basis.

He's been playing games as his main hobby since his parents got him Wipeout for the PS1 way back in 1996, and has been an addict ever since. He enjoys anime, superhero movies, and fantasy novels, and if he asks you to play Smite with him, back away slowly or you'll never hear the end of it.

Sadrith has been playing FFXIV since the 1.0 alpha/beta. She has been playing video games ever since PC point-and-click adventures of the early/mid 90's. She got sucked into MMO's starting with FFXI in 2003, and dragged her mom along with her in 2006. The two have been playing MMO's together ever since. Her gaming backlog is rivaled in size by the Eiffel Tower, but that won't stop her from trying that new thing that just came out

A Brief History of S|R
We started as a Linkshell in 2009 (i.e. Free Company or a Guild) in the MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV known as "Sanctus Refero".That is still the game the connects the majority of us, but today that camaraderie extends beyond this MMO to a plethora of hobbies, passions, and games we play, together.We changed in 2013 to "The Salts of Rhotano", more aptly named for the many minerals that are we, floating together in a fantastical sea.In other words, a blending of folks who are carving out a space for themselves on the internet.Here you'll find Writers, Builders, Creators, Challengers and Champions with Controllers.
The Free Company

We cater to players of any style.
Membership ranges from Legacy to Sprout.
Company resources are made available to everyone.
We look for players who show some passion for what they do, who love this game and spread that joy to others simply by being themselves.
We get a thrill when finding new players who may need our help, or players who may just need a home.
