  1. Bjorn, Edvard, Scran and Sven’s arrival to Rhewengrad ᚾ The Ashborn ᚾ Index: I The Ashborn II The Eras of Norlandic Armies a The Age of Heros b The Founding c The Wars of Liberation d The Highrock Era e Of Men and Moors f The Splintering g The Dawn III The hierarchies of Ashborn a The Flameborn b The Hearthborn IV The traditions and rituals of The Ashborn a High Rituals b Daily Affairs V The Knights of The Rising Sun VI Honours, Awards and Titles of the Ashborn VII The Ashborn Armoury a The Flameborn b The Hearthborn VIII The Honoured Dead IX Faith and the Ashborn X Recruitment Slip I Ashborn Ashguard upon the Second Siege of the Krag “All men to Ash”, these are the words of the Ashborn. A phrase that recognizes the brevity of life, that all men must die, whilst recalling the heritage of the Norlandic man at war. It is that brevity, that short and terrible sprint from birth to death that gives life its meaning. Every second is precious, every breath is finite. But can one live if they have nothing for which they are willing to die? Or are they simply bipedal cattle marching, nay plodding towards the slaughterhouse as time withers their flesh. This is the philosophy of the Ashborn, if all sons of the Ashtree live as flames and are destined to return to Ash. Then they must live well, being constantly reminded of their own mortality. That their God, and their people expect them, to a man to die well. II The Era of Norlandic Armies Javier Ruric leads the shield-wall at the battle of the Bloody Road The Age of Heros The Founding The Wars of Liberation The Highrock Era Of Men and Moors The Splintering The Dawn III The Hierarchies of Ashborn Avalon Silversteed rallies his bannermen towards the Ashguard’s forward flank The Flameborn (Officers/Descendants of Ancient Clans) The Prince Heroic For there cannot be unity without strength from the top down, you are what binds this Principality securely together. From your order, you guide the hearts and minds of the Champions, Ashguard, Shield-brothers and Fresh Meat that should dare rise to bear standard. Heed council from the other two, for you are only one. The Prince has requested you answer the call. Hero of Horse Your actions will determine the course of these trials ahead. With every new age, there becomes a time for great fire to burn within the heresy that lies unchecked. Your forces shall be the bulwark of assail, you will deter and counter those that would harm the Shield. For you are the Horse, and your speed is unmatched. Hero of Faith In the darkest hours we turn to you, our champion of light, for guidance. You will show the way through the cold, through the midnight air that will bring us forward unto dawn. By the All-father’s word, we carry out your will. Hero of Shield You are all that stands between order and chaos. By your towering shield, by your graceful command, we shall be delivered from damnation. While the Horse and Faith shall clear the way for our victory, your rallying spirit is what will push the forward will of our people onward. Carry the courage high. Heroic Descendant You are young and have much to see of this world. For some reason, you are chosen with descent from some of our mightiest heroes. For this reason, your blood will be protected and assumed paramount to those who can defend our realm in your stead. You will train under a Champion and ensure your knowledge, skill, and abilities are honed to the highest caliber. The Hearthborn (Military Central) Champion You are a hero. You have clawed your way, tooth and nail to survive this long. A bright beacon of idealism for your people to look towards, you have been honored with the acknowledgement of all your peers and the Prince himself. Rise up, your men await your command Champion. Ashguard Like the leader of a pack of wolves, you have fought tooth and nail to make your way to the top. You are a seasoned fighter, and the flame that resides within you will not be extinguished easily. Your brothers look to you for guidance and courage, do not fail them. Shield-brother I have spent my life searching for the answers that my father, and my father’s father failed to find. Who were our ancestors? What was their purpose and why did they vanish? I have asked the plants, but they do not remember. The plants have asked the rocks, but the rocks do not recall.. Even the rocks, do not recall. Every bone in my body tells me the answer rests on the shoulders of each of my brothers as I stand in the shield-wall, our lives in each others hands. We will face destiny. Fresh Meat / Recruit For every age, there is a time of trial. The rocks faced such a fire before they were the strength before our feet. The plants braved vast winds before they were the roots, to bring us life. For you, young norlander, it begins today. The rocks sung of an age of your people long past. The fires of your clansmen churn once more, the power of the All-father growing as you raise your shield and draw your sword. You are fresh meat, Recruit. Prove yourself worthy of legacy. Special Ranks Armourer Your steel and will are forged with every hammer that strikes the metal you create. You will be the bulwark of defense between every man woman and babe that will done your protective shell when war comes. You are an Armourer, and your life will bring shelter to others. Stablemaster The Horse demands stable supply of fresh steeds to guide his warriors forward. You play a critical role in our peoples survival, the horse had always provided what we lacked in speed the weapon to crush our enemies. The mighty beasts you shall bring forward will be unmatched by any before, hone your skill and breed your weapon. Drill Sergeant Without you warriors would be left dazed and confused on the battlefield. You drill the law of the battlefield into young warriors minds; forming and shaping them into the cold-blooded killers they are expected to be. For others, blades are the weapon; for you, the soldiers you train. Steel them well.

These are our finest men and women ever to cultivate of our flock rising through the trials and ranks to receive the privilege of joining this order. Like the rising sun, these men and women will bear a tabard of the orange sun with a flaming field across it a symbol of hope to those they stand beside in the Ashborn. -A Knight of the Rising Sun, 1710 VI Honours, Awards and Titles of the Ashborn Honours and Awards Ashmark Order of Arthas (holy service / conduct) Red Ribbon of Service (one year service in wartime) Blue Ribbon of Service (five year service in wartime) Black Medal (wounded in battle) Veteran’s Medal (served in a prior Norlandic army) Order of Donovan (success in battle despite overwhelming, nigh-suicidal odds) Staunton’s Medal (cowardice / oath breaking) Comes with stab wound Chef’s Medal (scream ‘we’re cooking’ before battle) Edvard’s Medal (scream Iron from Ice before battle) Keatonic Ribbon (loot goblin the **** out of your team) Honorary Badge (fought alongside us time and time again) Title Bloodied You have taken blood.

With your hand alone you may have changed the fate of a future battle, congratulations. You have also served to help save future generations of our great people. Bjorn’s Warrior You have been able to best a group of three well trained fighters by your lonesome. Battle Hardened and skillful, you are brimming with refined talent like Bjorn Ashtyr himself.

Until you have proven yourself to become Shield-brother, you will not be allowed access further into this Armoury. Contact your fist’s Ashguard or Champion if you wish for further access. Shield-brothers You are now allowed to choose between two armour variants forged by our Armourers in the Ashforge. You may choose the lighter leather skirmisher (first one) or the heavy platemail brute variant (second one). You may not wear the helmet of the Ashguard or Champion at this stage, but may wear others from slain foes, or past trials completed. Ashguard You have risen up as one of the finest warriors of your fist, granted access to the highest caliber of platemail the Ashforge allows for the standard military. These helmets have the ability to withstand multiple bolts of arrow fire before cracking or even denting. The ancient plate was ceremonially blessed before your receiving by the Hero of Faith, meaning the All-father has smiled upon you.

  5. SELLSWORD FOR HIRE To any interested contractors, I am selling my services as a sword and garrison trainer. On the past realm of atlas I had fought many battles against natural and unnatural forces, cutting my teeth as we ventured through the wall to this new land. Currently I have no formal residence or loyalty to any lord or guild. If you'd like to contact me, send a letter to the location stamped below. Regards, Royce Ruric de Frey (Malgonious#9566) OOC: Really struggling to get involved in any sort of rp this map. Haven't found a group that has kept my interest or seemed worth the time investment. I've been barred from about three groups for past things I've rp'd too, just seems disillusioning all together. Willing to join wherever just send me a pm.

  10. Hello Lord of the Craft, I wanted to state here that I am stepping down as ET Manager and am going to be taking a significant break from LoTC as well as my duties as an Event Team member (feel free to remove pex). I’ve been trying for a good deal of my time, the better part of half a year to bring about change in the community, but I never came to a concise vision as to how to do this. I’ve also tried different ways to bring about change in others, but all and all I’ve found I can really only change myself. This server has meant a great deal to me and I know it will continue to do so, the lessons I’ve learned and taken into real life have been overwhelming.. the people you meet and form real bonds with.. I believe I’ve done all I can as one person and at times faced backlash and reprimand from the community and the staff team because of it. My reasoning for this has nothing to do with the events that have transpired as of late rather a culmination of my own personal IRL issues, issues I cannot solve on my own team, and problems this community faces that I have decidedly seen that wont change. I wish all the best to the community, the Event Team, and everyone that cares enough to respond to this thread. I hope you’re able to look back fondly on events I’ve ran for this server, rather than negatively. It’s been real, keep in touch and don’t be a stranger. I’m sorry. -malg

      Take your time! I would prefer a completed and perfected event area rather than something that is rushed and half-complete. I have actually been very excited about all of these proposed interactive event areas, so I'm super eager to see what this first one will bring!!

      would this be the event zone that we started last weekend?

    3. Malgonious

      Malgonious

      @Master Baiter Yes that was the initial test of the Zone, I needed an idea of what was going to work and what was not for the overall progression of the area.  There are more sub-plot lines and areas unfinished of which we will be wrapping up come this weekend, along with the continuance of your own participation in the area.
