Settlement Government Structure Explanation:

 King John’s Rock follows a theocratic government where King John, supreme deity of Nottinghamshire is recognized as the supreme ruling authority bestowing his divine governance down to his Council of Nemok, or prophets on earth who direct the day to day lives of their people. This council is usually composed of 5 individuals from various backgrounds. These individuals have no specific requirements such as nobility. Instead, all that matters however is their sole devotion to the teachings of King John.

Settlement Builds and Infrastructure (photos required):

How does this settlement offer a unique niche not already found in an existing polity on the server?

Rather than the old Monarchy of Ruswick, King John’s Rock is a theocratic state following the tenants and will of King John Himself. It offers a place for things such as cults, banditry, thieves and a place to house the so called scum of the earth. It was nice and worked fine last time. We had a lot of roleplay backing us. We helped haense in a warclaim and had the difference making rally of 30. It closed the gap and made the defense defend better. It offers a new religion for people to worship, and a new culture.

How does your settlement tie to the greater lore and narrative set by the community on LotC?:

It gives the current state of the server an antagonist. The difference between us having a settlement and not is that we actually have roleplay consequence such as losing our charter and forcing us to think our actions out strategically

Have you ever run a settlement on LoTC before and what experience do you have with leadership within roleplay communities among the current groups of players?

Yes. I lead the previous Ruswick and it was fun. It came with a lot of OOC but it also came with things that made the server enjoyable for my community and I am grateful for that.

Are you aware that the nomenclature of your settlement and structure of its government must be initially appropriate to your size and status? (I.e a 1 tier settlement can not be a kingdom or principality - Rome was not built in a day!) 

Yes

Do you understand the metrics for maintaining activity and the grounds for settlement removal, along with the standing polity cap?

Yes

The Skulls were given the tents after the Nottinghams were labeled as terrorists and removed by Curon.

Can’t even build your own tents or get your own colors.

You took Nottingham’s tents. Didn’t even bother to build your own

Christ supports this notion

Reginald claps for those keeping on

Shutup cracka

The Tavern Charge

14th of the Grand Harvest, 1737

The men of Ruswick search the forest for stragglers, 1737

A day would not go by without blood being shed on the badlands. The small hamlet would see more than its fair share of battle—and this day was no different. One report would send the men preparing in the tavern. Hannibal would stand on the walls, and a kind passerby had relayed the location of a Haelun’orian war party; a mounted scout sent by Hannibal tracked their movements. In an act no short of genius, he had hidden the men inside the tavern, to wait for Hannibal’s call to charge. Soon thereafter, the banners of the Silver State hung in the air, whilst Hannibal alone opposed the seventeen strong host from the walls. 

The elves came in disarray, a perfect situation for Hannibal. As they fired upon him, he jumped behind the wall and began banging on his shield. Upon hearing the signal, the mighty host of seventeen charged forth from the tavern, and Hannibal would immediately open the gate, letting loose the horde of eager men unto the roads. Taken by utter surprise, they had perceived the Ruswickian force of seventeen to be much larger, as the Haelun’orians melted underneath the charge. Many of the elves had ran in fear without even a swing of their sword. 

The men of Ruswick would regroup within the city, unknowing that Dante of House Rük was single handedly fighting off a force of regrouped high elves. Realizing that one of their own was not with them, they immediately marched down the road in search of their man. But as they came into view, the band of high elves were kept at bay by only Dante. However, much like earlier, they would run upon seeing the charging men. Despite their best efforts, the steps of the silver city had been stained with red. One even fled behind doors, but a few Ruswickians were hot on their heels and summarily executed them in a few seconds short of their freedom.

Reginald the Sly-Blade would be proud of another rising settlement.

Reginald looks towards the memorial and approaches the gathering, following with “The Badlands is accepting Refugees. What they did was wrong and we will not let them continue to trample your name. If you need shelter then seek me.”

Reginald would nod his head in approval. Although Ruswick couldn’t have y’all, we wish you guys the best in your endeavors.

((Welcome back man, missed you. hmu on discord sometime Christ#7985

Reginald the Sly-Blade would smirk as he yanked his mask off his cheeks, he’d catch a breath then say, “Ruswick will be amazing, in the name of the Great Denis, and the founding families.”

Yeah man, Christ#7985, with Ruswick leadership too. Any of the above as well would work.

Edward Dayne would clap in celebration of the edict

Cassius single handedly took out half of the orcs in the fight. Child’s play.

Edward Dayne would not boast in the Glory, more so just glare at his blade as he thought to himself “Is this how they fall? To us three.” Held say to Titus and Darksteel.

(sick pfp))

This guy taught me most my knowledge on LoTC, minus everything on my wrap sheet. He’s a great Rper and the reason I've stopped banditting and joined a dedicated RP Brigade. If he joins, i’d be satisfied with the team finally.

William Veres wishes to join to nauzican brigade
