Faq For Kal'halla,

[Vinnyvedivici 45]

 

You land on the island known as "The Wilds" and as you depart from the ship onto the docks the rising sun catches your eye. The cool sea breeze at your back brings the pleasent smell of the market to you and you notice a large statue in the distance. Your curiosity is peeked and you decide to ask the nearby sailor a few questions.

 

 

What is this place?

 

You stand in the free lands of the Wilds, where ordinary folk work hard against the forces of nature and monsters.

 

Behind me is the hold of Kal'Halla, a hold which is located within the immediate territory of the Wilds, past the dock gates. It is under the protection of the proud dwarven Kingdom of Urguan, one of the mightiest nations in the world of Anthos.

____________________________________________________________

 

Who is the ruler around here?

 

The entire island is a free place, that being said there are settlements within. Specifically, Kal'Halla is a hold ruled over by a Jarl. The hold is managed independently by the Jarl and his men, honor bound to respond to a call to arms by their allies, the dwarven kingdom.

 

The Jarl who is in command of Kal'Halla is named Lucius Murmillo I. He choses to rule with a council of six.

 

____________________________________________________________

Jarl: Lucius Murmillo I ((vinnyvedivici))  
High Architect: Turalan Thunderblade ((itakethecake))
High Justice: Vaelon Tercalion ((Vaelpy))
High Champion: (awaiting tournament)
Auxillary Marshal: (voted by Auxillary Soldiers)
Auxillary Admiral: Rona Murmillo-Ironsail ((Bignsxxy))
High Merchant: (open for applications)

 

Who lives in the hold?

In this free land, there are plenty of different races who lives together in peace at the hold of Kal'Halla. Humans, elves, dwarves and many more, but no orc has yet to reach the place.

____________________________________________________________

 

How do I aquire a home here?

While free housing is provided, you must speak with the Jarl for a short interview, or leave yer information on tha forms below. There might be some aspects that might stop you from joining the town, however when you have been accepted you are free to come & go as you wish at any time. You'll receive more information about your home & the hold after the interview.

____________________________________________________________

 

Are there any rules?

 

• No stealing from the hold's residents, or you'll fight fer yer honor in the arena.

No murdering the hold's residents, doing so will result in an arena blood match. No changing of the limits of the home, which have been given to you, without concent, or your home might fall apart. Fighting is allowed, but only between consenting persons within the arena. You are to respect the laws of allied nations. Any crimes committed against allies (unless justified) will be dealt with by a judgement of the High Justice or trial by combat. In return they are to respect your rights, if they do things that directly defies the treaty you are to report to the High Justice and the situation will be dealt with accordingly. You are required to follow whatever law is set by the Nation you are visiting. If another Nation is wrongfully accusing you of actions you did not commit, you are not to speak on behalf of yourself in the situation so that hostile tensions are not created. You are to contact the High Justice who will then do everything in his power to assist your cause.

____________________________________________________________

 

 

The occly rules are very simple to follow:

 

• Cut only minecraft trees, you are not allowed to cut down custom made ones. If you cut down one tree, you replant.

You are allowed to use the mine if you mine rply, but watch out so you don't dig into someone's home. Only stores that have an RP theme are allowed, speak to the Jarl to set one up No greifing into other peoples houses, treat everyone with respect and they will treat you with respect in return. In both Icly and occly: Act with common sense & logic, basically don't be a ****. We are all mature players here.

This hold is concerned with the enjoyment of its members, and promotion of good RP. We welcome feedback!

 

 

I have a few more questions I wish to ask...

Go ahead, I am all ears.
