The Huckleberry Saloon was a weekly venue on Diabolos in ff14 from approximately august 2022 to April 2025. Our venue featured dozens of bard bands, immersive bartending roleplay, and wholesome fun energy. We made many friends. Many of us have moved on to new adventures, but we thank the community so much for being a part of the saloon.

Doc Laladay

Proprietor


Doc was a pre-med student at an Eorzean University until whiskey and cards got the best of him, at which point he began a years-long adventure of meandering and gambling. A lifelong drifter moving from one town to the next, it wasn't until he got lucky in the housing lottery that he realized he had a passion for running a saloon. When he's not at the Huckleberry, he can be found wandering around to other venues, doing roulettes, leveling crafters, and other such relaxing stuff. As a retired raider, he evades at all costs the higher end game content.


Catgirl Doc

Party Finder advertising, Venue Liaison


Often seen idling in a corner with a party finder ad up, Catgirl Doc helps out at the Huckleberry when she can. When she is not afk, she can be a chatterbox and will gladly talk and dance with anyone and is often found wandering around the venue scene in Eorzea. Rumor has it she's somehow related to Doc Laladay. She shares his habit of not being able to stay in one place for very long. Also, if you can't find Doc, reach out to Catgirl. She'll let him know you are looking for him. Always supportive and cheerful, her favorite glams are yeehaw glams and pajamas. She is also the beer drinkenest catgirl in Eorzea!

Donovan Adovan

General Manager
Master of Ceremonies


Dono was a travelling bard, going from venue to venue. One fateful day he came across Doc's saloon and was instantly infatuated. With some assistance from his contacts in the Syndicate, Dono bought an equal share in the Huckleberry Saloon and took over as the house bard, as well as assuming the role of G.M. Over time the two started an underground moonshine operation to supply the saloon directly, and business began to boom as the bar became known for it's top of the line liquors and (thanks to Doc) it's continuous lineup of Bards to entertain the patrons. These days Donovan has a reduced bard schedule, but is always busy behind the scenes ensuring the Huckleberry machine never stops.
