{Violent} - This region is now violent. Consent is not required for happenings here, but do be kind to each other.

This region is essentially closed to new residents - Roleplay
can continue here but I'll be revamping things eventually and I do
this better with zero residents (but myself). All houses have since
been cleared (I gave an announcement) and will remain this way for
the foreseeable future. Thanks.

General Information-
Blurb to be edited eventually.
Generally, ICly, the town is very vacant except for a barebones guard and staff team for the Kane family. Trade continues to go via Queensport from other settlements but it's minimal - I'll not be taking house applications at this time because I simply can't manage to keep it going with roleplay. See above.

History-
Queensport through the years has gone through many transformations and has been passed around through many houses since its founding. First settled by Lord Robert Senatoor of the long dead house of Senatoor in an attempt to get away from prosecution from the Lavoyardian Empire. Though, it did not take long for their history to catch up to the old house, eventually, House Senatoor had to kneel to House Lavoyard and the port city became a vassal for the first time. It prospered for many years under its new leader, though as House Lavoyard and Senatoor began to fall, so did Queensport.

Thus began to great collapse of Queensport. Bandits struck, killing all remaining members of the Senatoor family and leaving the city in complete disrepair. For a few years the port was left alone, completely lawless and home to all manner of criminals and scum. This remained that way until House Marr set its sights upon the port and put Edmund Campion in charge of its repair. Before it could even begin reconstruction it seemed House Marr was doomed to follow the same fate as the first houses that settled Queensport before it. Marr entering a war with the Kingdom of Anhald, leading to all its members fleeing the Northern Kingdoms in fear for a new land. Once more leaving Queensport abandoned.

But the port was not left alone for long, yet again, another house set its sights on Queensport. This time Alistair, Lord of House Kane set his sights on the lands in hopes of settling it as a port to his rapidly growing country in the north. Assigning Ciaria Caedit in charge of its reconstruction, the city truly did flourish for many years under House Kane. Ciaria building the city up into the beautiful port that it had been. But just as the port seemed to finally be safe from the struggles of the past, tensions in House Kane rose and another set their eyes on the port city.

In the absence of Alistair, Alison Kane claimed her birthright to the city with the aid of Anhald. Though the city did not kneel without resistance. A militia formed and threatened all the people of Queensport, demanding that Alison Kane relinquish her claim to ‘their’ city, going as far to take the regent Sebastien de Courtnay into custody. But their reign of terror was short lived, the armies of Anhald marched on Queensport and put a swift death to all of the traitors.

Finally, the city of Queensport was at peace and it grew even more popular under its new ruler. But it seemed that history was forever doomed to repeat itself. Just as the port was nearly finished with the repairs rumors of undeath came from the south.

It seemed that the barriers that protected the Northern Kingdoms had finally fallen and the undead of the south were slowly marching north, claiming everything in its path. The heroes of Anhald tried their best in keeping the menace away but the waves were unending and soon it was seen that the people of the Northern Kingdom’s would have to flee for a new land. And that they did, after weeks of travel the people of Anhald arrived in the new lands and after a long break began to settle here. That is where Queensport’s story begins once more, having been refounded by Alison Kane. The hope is that this time, the city may finally be at peace.

Rumors, Myths and Legends-
-It is still believed to this day that Queensport is cursed. Though some believe the curse was not on the town itself but the land it had previously stood upon. Only time will tell if the curse has followed the city to the new lands...
-Many believe the Kane palace is haunted. Some believing the source coming from the mirror room on the third floor after an incident at the nobles ball where reflections acted oddly and even the Queen's reflection screaming when the mirror was shattered. Other shadowy figures have been seen throughout the palace mainly whenever Alison is present.

Religion-
The main patron deity of Queensport is Ignis, Queensport houses one of the largest cathedrals to the god(dess) in the world as well as being the home of the Inquisition. Other Angeli held in high regard under Ignis are Jax and Sallana.

Climate-
(Based off Norway)
The climate of Queensport is milder than those regions further North, especially being on the coast. During most of the year, snow that falls often melts immediately, and the warmer waters keep the port ice-free. In winter months the temperatures drop and snow covers the ground, but the port’s little ice does not become problematic for vessels.
Summer’s average temperature is around 15°C, while in winter it lingers at a cold average of -10°C.

Theft and Criminal Roleplay-
To allow for more free and equal Roleplay to any who desire to visit Queensport there are various measures in place to provide such. Throughout Queensport there are loot-able chests that your character can take from ICly and OOC. Some of them hold simple things such as gold ingots, emeralds, a few diamonds. Others hold RP items such as jewelry and other things. Rarely you will find a One-Time RP item. These are special and are much higher in value than the others, some of these things may be something that will help you reach another item or just something your character can use.

These chests will be re-filled on a weekly basis, but only seldom with the same things twice. And One-Time RP items will ONLY appear once. If your character wants to try to loot these chests there are a few things you should note beforehand.

  1. You must have a DM (me or the owner of a specific building) around when you are trying to loot a chest and pick locks. This is to ensure fairness and no cheating. If you wish to try to steal from the available locations just send me a PM and we can arrange a time for such. Any items stolen without a DM present are not allowed and is considered griefing.
  2. There will be a map below marking all buildings with loot-able chests. There is absolutely NO REASON one should go into other private houses and shops to try to steal something unless previously arranged with the owner of said building. This is to ensure safety of residents personal property and to keep things fun.
  3. Chests in mine-carts are the only chests you are allowed to take from.
  4. You can only steal from the same chest once.
  5. While you are stealing items there must be at least one other person online, preferably a guard. (QP is rather inactive, so for now as long as I am around, you can OK it with me.)
  6. The region is VIOLENT for you alone while you are stealing items. Anything from character injury to character imprisonment is allowed without your consent. Killing still requires consent though.

Locked Doors-
To make things a bit more interesting and complicated there are various doors throughout QP that are locked IC. These doors are clearly marked with information about what key is required to open the door and what level of lock it is. The following rules are inspired by games such as the Elder Scrolls and other Bethesda titles.

  • If you have found a key or stole a key from another player you must give the DM the OOC key item and the door will open. For the sake of keeping track of keys, you may only use a key once. So once you have finished your adventure through QP you will no longer have the key should you return again unless the key is of importance and an agreement has been made with the DM.
  • If you do not have a key, you may also attempt to pick the lock. Note: You must emote picking the lock in RP chat. Also there will be absolutely no roll modifiers.
    • Novice Lock: Roll a d20, anything over 4 is a success.
    • Apprentice Lock: roll a d20, anything over a 8 is a success.
    • Adept Lock: roll a d20, anything over a 12 is a success.
    • Expert Lock: roll a d20, anything over a 16 is a success.
    • Master Lock: roll a d20, require a natural 20
  • If you fail to pick a lock then follow the next rules.
    • Roll a d2
      • If a 1, you broke the pick in the lock and cannot attempt to re-pick the lock. You now need a key to open the door.
      • If a 2, you may attempt to re-pick the lock and repeat the previous steps until you're either successful, or you break the pick inside the lock and cannot retry.

You can only steal ICly from buildings marked in RED. Refer to above rules for more details.

A few updates, I'll be using this thread to post screenshots and news instead of using my old QP Rebuild thread.

Firstly, the cathedral devoted to Ignis is finished, you may recognize the build as it was a previous build in the old Queensport. Archbishop allowed us to reuse the build on the new map and Elz and I made a bunch of edits to fit the new religion. (Biomes have messed up a few blocks, it'll be fixed soon.)

Queensport also has a new marketplace for people to sell their IC goods. No OOC chest shops allowed unless to sell IC items. I'd like to get these full of shops with various different things for sell. So if you're part of a house, organization or just simply have something to sell or trade please contact me so we can get you your own stall free of charge. There is limited space and currently only 3 large stalls left and 7 small ones.

Progress update
Me and Elz have been working almost none stop for the last week to finally get the walls done and we've finally been able to finish them!


In addition, we've prompted to re-build the old mirror tower that was one of the landmarks of old QP. Doing a bunch of edit's to update it to fit the new QP style. :)


Lastly, we've also completed the tourney area! Soon to add a fairground just outside but that's next on our list.


And here you can see all three new things in one place!
