Lost Age OCC Discussion Thread [Former Ceaden Thread]

[Marzarbul]

Well currently there are humans living here but I intend for a later Rp to discover dwarves later on and a merging of the two people. Right now dwarves are considered a legend in the kingdom but the dwarves remember the Old Kingdom were once they and humans lived together till the climatic battle against the Even Wights and their followers which destroyed the kingdom and forced the humans south and the dwarves farther north and deep in their halls.

[Aelosia]

I have included my new map for my application:

(Image)

I am not very sure if that's correct, so it would be grateful if I can receive help.

Also, I started to work on my factbook.

Perfectly fitting inside the limits.

Nice idea. That's a good idea indeed.

[Tuthina]

As part of the society and military of Sabyema, I tried to create a template for the lamiae, which is, in case you don't know, half-woman half-snake creatures that dwell in desert and has a rather nasty reputation. Please tell me if this is a good idea or not, or if I messed up something.

Lamia (1)
Description: Half-woman half-snake creature that dwells in desert.
EQU: None
SPE: 200 miles (desert) 80 miles (other terrain)
VAL: 300 credits
PAY: 150 credits
STR: 0.5
MAG: 1

It is not a really strong unit, but is often used for scouting and, sometimes, surprise attack and assassination. While their physical body is somehow weaker due to being half-snake, they have an innate ability to move through sands rather quick, and seem to process some degree of magic to lure weak-minded people towards them.

[Itailian Maifias]

Since there's been a return of common sense, , I'll be continuing my intro, still working on that epic charge though.

*Note* I am going to need some help with the mathematics/basics until I get the swing of things.

NOTE: These are the BASE resources you MAY Start with. No matter where your plot of land is. The way it works is when you first join one of the staff members will give you a number. Depending on your number is whether or not you will start with more or less than the base number of resources. The numbers are 1-6 and results are as follows:

1: 5% Less on all base resources
2: 5% Less on all base resources
3: No Change to Base Resources
4: No Change to Base Resources
5: 5% More on all base resources
6: 5% More on all base resources

Base Resources:
# of Stone: 1250

Why you wish to join:

I would like to join, as this seems to be one of the better established Medieval communities on NS at the moment. Though it seems really complex, I am going to give it a shot anyway and hope for the best. Hopefully, this will be a fun experience for not only myself but everyone involved.

[Itailian Maifias]

For your information, I really couldn't see diddily squat on that map. Might want to zoom in on your claim.

What are the specifics of a "Diddly Squat"? Is he related to Jack Squat by chance?

Why are YOU here?

[Itailian Maifias]

Lol, I think they might be distant cousins.

[Paddy O Fernature]

Why are YOU here?

Um... cause I can post anywhere I want to on the forums so long as I stay within the confines of the established NS ruleset.

Don't like it? Suck it up buttercup and deal with it.

Lol, I think they might be distant cousins.

Indeed.

Hopefully that map is better on the eyes. Not sure why it is pulling up small for you, as it is giant on my cpu.

Meh

[Tuthina]

Indeed.

Meh

It looks small on my computer too. Maybe it is auto-compressed during upload?

Hmm.. that is a possibility.

I will try to fix this, and upload a new version. Thank you for the feedback so far lads.

**EDIT**

Photobucket seems to auto size it for some reason. Can't seem to figure out how to prevent this. Hmmm.....

[Durmatagno]

Oh god, ugghhhh, Ceaden/Archesia, I may end up slaughtering this guy

I remember it can be set at the uploading preferences. Another better solution is to switch to imgur.

So,let me get this straight. For no reason at all, you are being overly aggressive to me OOC and soon will go out of your way to be an absolute ass to me IC?

Real mature guy.

Caststar “Nation” Name: The Kingdom of Ever-night
Demonym: Its people are called Darkens or the men of Ever-night
Race: Humans
Languages: The Old Tongue and the Queens Speech
Religion: There are two main religious practices within Ever-night, the first follows the Deity called Night Father and the second follows the Summer Queen and this sort of practice comes from the founding of the Kingdom in centuries past. Both were ancient rulers that personified the two extremes of Ever-night, its long and brutal winters and its equal but short summer respites.
Government Type: Monarchy with an advisory High Council composed of various noble men.
Head of State: High King Belaric Stormbrow and his Wife Ferelda of the Shimmering Heights
Seat of Power: The City of the Weeping Chasm
Currency: The Even-Star
RL Fluency in English: I was born and raised in the United States with it but have been known to make a minor mistake or two in grammar and spelling but try to edit any such things out when spotted.
Example of previous RP: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=148553
RL Age: I do not feel terribly comfortable with giving out my age but suffice to say I am currently a junior in college and can consume alcoholic beverages legally.
Population: Until I get my land settled this is N/A
Military Size: Same with the population
Where you wish to place your land plot:I have no idea how to post my claim on here using paint and etc. so I would like to claim the thin, most northern part of land where currently Icu is, stretching from its tip down to the large river separating it from the mainland. But if it is too large then some piece of it would be fine.
Why you wish to join: I enjoy writing in the PT fantasy world though many of my former Rp experiences in the department never last very long. I am hoping that with the well thought out details and the fact that this is still running perhaps it will last long enough for me to justify putting the work into it and the faction I play.

Comment: Also I am terrible confused in regards to the resource system and wish for some help seeing as I applied just recently to Caststar and was told to come here now. Also I was wondering if the nation of Icu was still an active member and if so I would like to change my land claim so the mass of land jutting out to the left of Hjaalmarch.

Kingdom of Ever-night: Approved! And welcome! As far as land I will give you just a bit less than what you are asking for but yes Icu is indeed non-active, I've sent him messages before so he will more than likely be removed. As far as resources I will give you a number modifier.

Resources Number: 5 (5% More on all base resources)

Resources:

# of Stone: 1312.5
# of Iron: 2100
# of Steel: 0
# of Carbon: 420
# of Wood: 16800
# of Gold: 262.5
# of Silver: 420
# of Oils: 3150

Here is your focus map: Focus Map

Heres your check list:

-Edit focus map (given by staff) with improvements you wish to make on your land.
-Submit list of improvements with focus map (settlements, fortifications, roads, etc)
-Submit your GDP, PPC, and Tax Rate.
-Begin Intro RP
-Create Fact book
-Declare your military on the Forces Declaration page, with complete stats of all units.
-Complete Intro RP.

Complete those tasks and then you will be set to get out into the big bad world of Ceaden! From now on when new members apply I will have these check lists so that it is easier for me and my Mods to keep track of all of this.

Real mature guy.

I'm going to stop this right now, there will be no arguments in OCC in Ceaden. I dont care what personnel problems you have with each other but you will not bring it into this RP, or you will both find yourselves out of Ceaden. We are here to RP and have fun, not argue back and fourth understand?

[Tuthina]

I have started my intro thread as well. Please tell if I am going the right way.
It would also be nice to know if my application in general is good enough for Ceaden.

I am still trying to understand the resource system, so can I fill that in later?

Well your overpaying for it, it should only be 100 credits of PAY and 200 of VAL. Also its really under strength. Like one of my peasant conscripts could take it on. Unless its really supposed to be that weak.

My problem with him is he decided in another rp his opinons far outweighed mine and he tried to dictate me in the RP without any OP say so, the OP just eventually sided with him to try and make it end, that and I don't like his IC name.
