WINTERGUARD



Introduction:

((Work in progress))​
The Archduchy of Winterguard is a part of the Kingdom of Hierax, and its most northern continental fief.
Located far north Wintetrguard is known for its harsh climate and high terrain, which makes it hard to conquer and even harder to level as it is supported by the mountain itself.

Winterguards most outstanding features are the natural hot springs around its vicinity which attract lots of visitors, and also making it possible for water to flow instead of freezing - most of them are however underground and have yet to be excavated.

The Soldiers and Armory of Winterguard are said to be extra resilient thanks to the harsh climate they have to endure day by day.

Government:

The fief of Winterguard was bestowed upon Archduke Bolvar Firestorm of House Firestorm, by his Royal majesty King Axex I. Aeyeras in his endless wisdom.

Law:

The Archduchy of Winterguard follows the laws of the Kingdom of Hierax.
Trails are being held directly in front of the Archduke, unless derogated to a lower instance.

Religion:

The Cathedral of Winterguard is the Center of Religion in the Archduchy, and bears a shrine to every god worshipped in the kingdom.
A big tree grows within the cathedral's center which is rumored to be the Tree gifted by the Goddess Shalherana in Heaven's Reach, which also serves as her shrine.

Winterguard follows the faith of the Kingdom of Hierax and has thus outlawed the worship of Evil Gods.

Wealth:

Import(RP):

Despite being in the far northern Area of the Kingdom small amounts of land are still suitable for farming due to its underground hot springs.
However the majority of farm crops still has to be imported from other regions of the kingdom due to the Archduchy's cold climate.
However, despite its frozen soil crops produced in the Archduchy are still considered of the highest quality, which is theorized to be caused by the hot springs underground, and sell for a lot more if exported to other towns.

e.g.:

  • Wheat
  • Carrots
  • Potatoes
  • Melon's
  • Pumpkins

Export(RP):
Despite its low self-sufficiency in terms of crops, Winterguard has a high output of quality Meat and Fish.
The Archduchy's true wealth however comes from its mines, which are rich with every ore currently known to the people of Altera.

e.g.:

  • Game(Hunted meat)
  • Beef
  • Pork
  • Fish
  • Wood
  • Iron
  • Gold
  • Gems
  • Spring Water

Housing:
Housing in Winterguard is free of OOC charge and taxes, if you take up a job in the town
Taxes and rents will thus be collected RP only, thus you will not have to spend your Radiants on it.

It is not allowed to extend your house without permission, or make changes its exterior.

Q: So how can i join?
A: Please fill out the form below, afterwards there is only the formality of some RP with either me or the towns Mayor (as soon as one is chosen) left ;).

Q: Sounds cool but how do I get there?
A: First you have to travel to Heaven's Reach you can do this either via the dock master (/go Heavens Reach) or through walking/swimming there.
From there on you got two options - Talk to the Stable Master (Yuki) and type /go Winterguard, or walk across the bridge and keep following the road until you reach a castle directly connected to the bridge.
there take the right exit and again cross a Bridge - then you just need to follow the road.

Q: So about those Taxes...
A: Taxes are RP only, no money, emeralds will be taken from you and the houses are free to, although to be chosen 'RP affordable considering your job in the town' (aka no huge mansions for stable boys).
This is a necessity to increase the immersion for everyone.

Q: So I got an idea for a build...
A: Building Ideas are to be submitted to the major(preferably with a screenshot), who will, if he thinks that they fit into the town environment, contact me for the final approval.
That being said the town will still be extended and is looking for dedicated IC and OOc builders to live there and help expand ;) (noted as Masons and Carpenters above)

Q:How can I become the IC-Mayor?
A: by getting voted on once enough people live in the town

Q: What does the Mayor do:
A: IC he is the one administrating the town and making reports to the Lord (me), OOC he is for example responsible for terminating if a build someone wants to see even fits into the town image before showing it to me for final approval.

Hello and thank you for your application.
Technically the Lumberjack position is (mainly RP) as the forest (atm just a thicket) is mainly hand built and shouldn't get chopped by any means. (Any wood gathering would thus be in the sorrows).

A position as a soldier isn't a problem either if you prefer that one.

Atm I am a bit busy due to being in a new job, I will however contact you within the next few days to show you around town and discuss anything further regarding your IC job and any remaining questions you might have.
As well as an Rp part/ setting a time in case the other part takes longer.
