Thanks for sharing this Dalek, the screenshots you’ve managed to keep over the years were really helpful in putting this video together. As someone from the other side, I’ll say the undead did a great job of keeping us on our toes. It’s good to know the enjoyment was shared on both ends. For me personally, I’ll always miss the lived-in feel of Aegis, and the fluidity of character interactions, with everyone effectively being a new player. While I can appreciate the server has had to move on and adapt to new audiences during its lifespan, LotC never felt as natural or free-flowing as it did in the beginning.

Hi guys, For those who weren’t aware, LotC recently passed its 10-year mark. In 2011, when Minecraft itself was still in its early days, a lot of us went ahead and filled out the application form to join what was then a new and upcoming fantasy RP server. Now, while many who were present in the beginning are either still around or just drop by the forum occasionally, it’s true to say that screenshots and footage from this time remain relatively scarce. After a bit of digging, I’ve managed to pull together something that might help to rekindle at least some of those memories. So, to the players of Aegis, whether moved on long ago or still here today, this one is for you.

New form submission from Story Team Application Minecraft Name: ZezimusDiscord ID: Zezimus#7214Timezone: GMTWhat skills can you apply in your role as a Story Team member?: Throughout my time on LotC, it has been my goal to make the role play of those around me a more immersive and enjoyable experience. I’ve had previous stints on the LotC staff team, including as a member of the Villain Application Team in 2012, and then a Global Moderator from 2012-2013. I also made significant contributions to dwarven story events from 2013-2014, in coordination with Lagomorphia, 30326, Luchian and other players present in the dwarven community at the time. I’ve written an extensive collection of background lore for the dwarves, fleshing out their pre-Aegis history and helping to incorporate some of this content into ongoing event lines. Over the years, I have also been a community lead across the dwarf and human factions, playing a nation-leader in 2013, and then an undead event character in 2014. Due to a reinvigorated interest in playing the server, alongside the necessity of adapting to a slightly unorthodox work schedule, I now feel I have the time to make a meaningful contribution towards the lore sect, contributing to the server’s story and overall world building. How can we as the Story Team contribute toward the server's story?: I want to see stories that are inclusive and bring a real narrative into peoples’ role play, allowing them to engage and interact with the characters and world around them. Particularly with war and conflict seemingly placed at the back burner of the server experience for the time being, I feel that some players are missing out on many of the types of role play, which the server was previously known for. Take, for example, the Ondnarch story line, written by myself and Luchian and then executed by 30326 into a series of community events. It gave players a reason to role play a combat-orientated character, but equally a scholar looking to connect the dwarves to their ancient past. It introduced many new and inexperienced role players into the dwarven community and coincided with a significant boost in our player-retention. In the past, major world-altering events, such as the undead event line in Aegis or the Ondnarch story in Anthos, successfully highlighted the consequence of players’ actions, providing major characters such as Urir Ireheart and Thorin Grandaxe with the send-offs they deserved. The standard of role play has very much improved since then and many other things now take precedent for different people; however, new players deserve to have event lines that give real weight to their decisions and provide a sense of purpose for their character’s day-to-day existence. Whether it’s delving through an old and abandoned ruin, vanquishing an ancient evil or making a significant lore-impacting discovery, I want players to feel a living part of the same server narrative we started back in 2011.

A courier is dispatched to the city of Helena in due course, carrying a letter penned in response to the Emperor's missive. To his Imperial Majesty, Godfrey II of the House of Cascadia, I hereby affirm your request that Adrian Orel be recognised as a full and legitimate member of the House of Sarkozic, to be henceforth known as Adrian of the House Sarkozic. May God bless your reign and the continued peace and mutual goodwill of our two peoples. Signed, HIS LORDSHIP. Edgar of the House of Sarkozic, Patriarch of House Sarkozic

Taking a raven feathered quill and a pot of ink, Edgar Sarkozic, Chancellor of Adria, signs his brother's name at the bottom of the scroll on the Duke's behalf. "His Lordship, John of House Sarkozic, Duke of Adria, Baron of Dormont, Protector of the Midlands."

========================================= Name of the Treaty: Union of Crow and Ram ========================================= Type of Treaty: Alliance ========================================= [Nation / Freebuild] [Name: ] Duchy of Adria [Nation / Freebuild] [Name: ] March of Ostmark ========================================= Date of Signing: 1663 ========================================= It was not a large assembly. Banner guards, carrying the banners of Crow and Ram, posted outside the cathedral of Saint Emma. The tavern across the street boomed noise, a few drunken Adrian peasants stumbling out to peer on the noble marriage. Eimar var Burgundar embraced his soon-to-be son-in-law with the love of a father. The young duke, John, waited up at the altar as a quiet and timid bride, not one of many words, walked up the aisle. No, it was not a marriage of love; political intellectuals would remark, though, it was one of familial necessity. Amelia var Burgundar and John Sarkozic’s arms were wrapped in the banner of House Sarkoz. The priest spoke the hymns and ceremonies with effortless remembrance, though a spark of joy in his voice when the name of Sarkozic passed off his lips. The ceremony was not one of pomp, rather quick. With the marriage kiss, the Crows and Rams rose in cheer, which drowned out even the din of the tavernites. Like the two families joined in marriage, so too did the church-goers and the drinkers of the newly erected tavern. Out poured the Sarkozics, out poured the Burgundars, out poured the priest and the Vladovics and Ivanoviches, out poured the guards and down fell the flags. Merriment rang on through the night, as the celebratory groom became rowdily drunk. Though, his timid bride sat there with a content smile, glad in her new home of happy people and loud songs. The sun rose over the town of Belvitz, come early morning a town crier announced to the rising peasants. Our duke is married! Amelia var Burgundar, now Amelia Sarkoz, is our Duchess! ---------------------------- Signed, His Lordship, John of House Sarkozic, Duke of Adria, Baron of Dormont, Protector of the Midlands His Lordship Eimar of House var Burgundar, Margrave of Ostmark, Count of Götha, Baron of Geatea, Cyrilsburg, Riga, Aleksandria, Westmark, Eastmark, Royal Knight, Protector of the Southlands and Master of the Hunt

Role-play: The irony that Adria would be restored with the quelling of a rebellion was not lost on John Sarkozic. It had been over a century since the church in Brelus had been burnt by Savoyard Imperialists, the generals of fire and cold steel laying waste to the once fertile plains that overflowed around it. Its wooden walls lay broken in a forgotten land, far away from the town known as Belvitz. John looked upon a map from the royal court in Senntisten, down at the label and illustration of a hamlet near the Cloud Temple. This is mine. Promised and Bestowed, this land is mine. There was but one hitch: the deluded keepers of Belvitz refused to return to his Majesty’s court. The deluded group of stragglers from a once prominent group dug into the dirt before the promise of prosperity for Adria, and laid their trenches in its way. The rebels, led by a southeron who was in reality of little importance, defied his Majesty. In another life, Brelus stood in a similar position. However, today those stragglers blocked his way. Belvitz’s way. Today, John would bring with him the grandsons of Brelus, of Adria. They would march forth, and from Senntisten they would bring the fire, the cold steel. No church would burn to the ground, but the ashes of those walls would serve as the fertilizer for plentiful fields not yet sowed. CBs: Rebellion. Side A: Renatus. Side B: Rebels.
