    The Ishiguntai

    | I s h i g u n t a i | The Stone Army Purpose: Originating from the shores of Aeldin in Oyashima the Ishiguntai are the sworn samurai guard of the Hirano Kuge as well as famed monster hunters and cursed relic collectors. These selective hunters loosely follow in the footsteps of the Marked Men that accompanied Kais Ishikawa from descendant lands to their home. The Oyashiman warriors have sworn themselves to defend descendantkind and their patrons: The Hirano clan by engaging in the study, pacification, preservation, and combat of the supernatural. The Ishiguntai do not kill mindlessly, but instead seek to act as liaisons between descendants and the unknown in the best case scenarios, even-tempered slayers of the wicked in the worst, and clever huntsmen for beasts too dangerous for untrained descendants. Oath & Code Oath I prefer death before dishonor, I shall not abandon my post No pleasure from the slaughter, I shall be merciful foremost Sworn to Hirano sons and daughters, I shall forever protect my host Humility is my virtue and my honor, I shall find no reason to boast Stone secrets poison waters, I shall keep them from the coast I aid the needy not the clotter, I shall protect both man and ghost My stone blood is thicker than water, from now until my funeral toast. Code of Conduct The Ishiguntai are expected to behave in a manner that brings honor to the House Hirano and the Stone Army itself. Respect for the laws of the nations they visit in pursuit of their contracts as well as the authority of those nations is considered paramount. The Ishiguntai are to carry themselves with level heads, and should endeavour toward a stoic and unflinchingly calm demeanour even in the face of mockery, danger, and deceit. Ishiguntai are not mindless executioners of the supernatural, they are liaisons between the eldritch and descendantkind. The reasonable should be permitted an ear as a soldier at war is often more a monster than a ghost or beast defending its own territory. Ishiguntai are not permitted to give away information about the inner workings of the order, the contents of its archives, or the trials required of the initiates. Ranks Meishu: The commander of the Ishiguntai as a whole is known as the ‘Meishu’ Which translates roughly to ‘leader’ in Oyashiman. Typically this role is taken by a member of the Hirano clan. The Meishu acts as the figurehead, diplomat, pay negotiator, logistical head, and organizer of the Ishiguntai. Taicho: Captains of the Ishiguntai are known as “Taichou”, they are responsible for leading squads of Senshi on more dangerous hunts and excursions as well as for commissioning gear for and outfitting Senshi with any practical knowledge required to face their quarries. Squads composed entirely of taichou are often sent on more dangerous assignments than their Senshi subordinates. Senshi: The first oathed rank of the Ishiguntai, Senshi are warriors who have passed the trials required to become Ishiguntai and are allowed access to the libraries, reliquary, and armory of the order. They undertake freelance or assigned hunts on behalf of the Stone Army and are allowed free reign of the grounds and audience with the Meishu regarding their concerns. Initiate: Initiates are the hopeful applicants of the Ishiguntai who undertake trials to prove their worth. Unoathed and untrusted until their trials are undertaken, initiates are not permitted free reign of the Ishiguntai grounds, free access to the library and reliquary, nor audience with the Meishu. Traditions The Initiate Trials: Initiates of the Ishiguntai are expected to undertake five trials leading up to their oath which are revealed and to be prepared for one after the other. While the Stone Army keeps the nature of these trials clandestine the names of each trial are known to the public as follows: The Trial of Poems, The Trial of Waste, The Trial of Ordeals, The Trial of Blossoms, and the Trial of Stone ((Credit to Gamma_Byte for this art)) The Oathtaking: Ishiguntai initiates who pass their trials are brought before the meishu and expected to recite the poetic oath to declare their lifelong loyalty to the Stone Army and the Hirano Kuge. While speaking the oath they will be handed their first issued weapon as an Ishiguntai, a tanto which they will use to carve a pattern into their skin while recounting the oath before their lord forever scarring and branding them as a member of the Stone Army.

  6. Nation Settlement PRO MC Name: Kemobrown Nation Name: Jade State of Yong Ping What is the history of your settlement since its founding and what has transpired for it to ascend to the status of a fully-fledged, multi-playergroup nation?(1000 words minimum): Yong-Ping City is the epicentre of Eastern-inspired culture and arts. It’s home to the Li-Ren, Oyashimans and many other travellers who have found home with its unique culture, natural landscapes and laid-back lifestyle. Yong-Ping found its humble origins in Arcas, where it started off as just a small embassy, eventually growing to encompass Tai Ping District in Talons Port. With the small district no longer able to contain the ever-growing population of Li-Ren and Oyashimans, the City State of Yong Ping was founded on the South-Western shores. Since then, Yong Ping has remained a beacon of unique culture and a hub of the arts, with its player base flourishing under the expansion into settlement, so much so that it's grown to the point where we can confidently head into nationhood. Due to an influx of inhabitants, we have found ourselves sorely lacking for space to house them. Thus, in order to continue to provide a home that will put its people first, celebrate the culture, and continue to offer a one-of-the-kind experience found nowhere else on Almaris, we have decided to apply for nation status. Culture post: https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/196044-culture-li-ren-culture/ https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/194066-culture-oyashima/?tab=comments#comment-1790003 Events posts: https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/197710-tea-house-opening-night-the-story-of-nian/ (had 25 attendees) https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/198062-battle-of-the-bei-blades/ (had 10 attendees) https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/198247-mourning-the-lost/ (had 10 attendees) https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/198431-the-sky-and-the-star/ (same event as above) https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/198558-tai-ping-new-century-celebrations/ (altogether, 15-20 attendees each day) https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/198592-washing-the-ashes-and-beginning-anew/ (20 attendees roughly) https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/198629-the-firework-feast/ (15-20 attendees) https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/198709-lion-dancing-competition/ (10 attendees) https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/198743-the-dragon-dance-parade/ (We went round all of Almaris, rough gauge is each settlement or nation picked up 15-20 attendees at a time). How has your settlement expanded into a core LotC staple, warranting nation rights? Only eastern inspired settlement that has lasted for multiple IRL months and has managed to reach and maintain Nation Level activity throughout this entire period. It has offered a unique culture and RP niche that is not found within other nations. Within the past few months there has been an increasing growth in player activity and retention and unfortunately due to the current size limits of Yong Ping we’ve had to turn away players who are wanting to move to Yong Ping and further engage in the roleplay here because we don’t have enough houses or space to provide for all the players that are flocking to the city. We also provide and cater to multiple events both ST run and player run within the city that keeps roleplay constantly evolving and interesting for the players who live and RP here. We recently held a festival within Yong Ping that had a constant attendance of 45 people for the multi hour duration of the event. What are your plans once getting Nation Status and the remainder of your tile? The Jade State of Yong Ping will seek to expand into the surrounding area, increasing the size of its domain while adding more areas and builds to facilitate more unique, farfolk-inspired subcultures to thrive. The State will maintain its emphasis on Eastern-inspired cultures and retain the unique niche we have so far managed to establish and maintain. This will allow others with similar aspirations to work with Nation and make interesting RP thrive. What niche does your nation capture that does not exist among the current ones?: Our settlement captures that Eastern Inspired subculture and encourages a unique sense of Eastern inspired cultural roleplay and new player integration not found in other nations on the server. Yong Ping provides a safe haven for Farfolk inspired roleplay and will allow for expansions of Farfolk culture and roleplay in the future as the player base expands from what it is now. Do you feel confident that your settlement has grown to the point that it can survive the departure of its existing leadership? Is your player-group able to incorporate new players into the existing roleplay community that founded your settlement?: As I myself have only just joined a couple of months ago, and already have worked my way to the highest achievable office within Yong Ping. I would define Yong Ping as an ideal and friendly environment for new players and old players alike to not only learn and live out the specific culture of Yong Ping, but also to engage in a different facet of roleplay from the norm that is usually found on LotC. As a new and upcoming nation as well as playerbase we have less attachment compared to the longer standing nations and settlements and as a result provide a path for new players to trailblaze themselves and can be seen in our efforts to incorporate them into our community from the get go as seen with our Citizenship Application process which forces players to engage in RP with the settlement and its culture. This process allows new players to evolve their characters and story within the cultural environment and playerbase of Yong Ping and as a result allows Yong Ping itself and the players already living there to evolve and progress their stories.
