Reich: Germanic, roughly translated as "nation" or "realm"
The Lore (Settlement Backstory):
The Founding of Hjorstaad's Landing
Across the seas unto the North
a Distant Isle lay;
a frozen land of men and giants,
the home of Jotunbane
Twas Sigvatr of the village Gert
was named as Jotunbane,
for wading through blood of Jotunbrood -
though a tale for another day
Across the seas he did sail
for blood and fame and gold,
until his eyes did find Far Shores,
far south of Distant Cold
When forth he set to reach dry land,
the skies rang forth with shock;
a storm did spring and roar from Hell
to dash ship hull 'gainst rock
When cold sea god did claim his ship
dark waves o'er port had leapt,
sea god did spare the Jotun-Hewer
and to sand of land he swept
Awakened on this Far Shore, he stood
and trudged from sea to sea,
until to Western coast he stopped
to build his legacy
On shore he found the trophy-skull
from Hjorstaad - most vile of Jotun,
which from his ship was cast before;
this site the Gods had chosen
And on that day, he paid homage;
a sacrifice to gods demanding,
and King of Valkreich, Jotunbane
had founded Hjorstaad's Landing.
The Message (Guild Info):
I have long awaited this game, being a big fan of sandbox MMO's, and have finally set foot in-game on official public server number 10 to start a guild that will eventually expand into a mighty kingdom.
I am looking for a few good people that want to help create something brilliant, a beautiful village that will evolve into an extravagant fortress, complete with every kind of building / crafting area that one could ever hope for, a thriving trade center and place to hang your hat (or helmet, rather) after a hard-fought battle.
I will need every character build and playstyle out there - crafters, builders, terraformers, alchemists, healers, gatherers and soldiers. Anyone will be welcomed into (and encouraged to be a part of) the militia, and those with promise will be accepted into the elite cavalry. The initial idea for the "theme" of the guild is that of the Norse Viking model: brave women and men who till the fields and work the smithies when necessary, and who take up arms when they get the opportunity (but not a complete rendition of Norse culture - some classic feudal terms and ideas will be incorporated such as "vassals" and "fiefs." After all, this isn't Viking Era Scandinavia: this is a completely different, fantasy world). I plan for it to be light RP - staying in character in the world but not walking instead of running and narrating everything you do. Simply speak how you think your character would actually speak in this setting.
PvP participation will be encouraged, but not required or pressured upon those who prefer PvE and crafting.
Every man and woman that has remained loyal to the kingdom will have the right to participate in the Thing (court), where various matters of concern / justice will be discussed. Everyone's voice will be heard, and I, as king, will have the final say in the sentencing and proper course of action to be taken regarding each matter. This way, we can have our mead hall set up and nice and cozy before we go "A-Viking" (raiding) to
distant lands
I believe that is about it for now. If you have any questions or are interested in joining, either PM me (in-game or on Steam under Sigvatr_Jotunslayer) or respond to this post in the comments below! SKOL!
