Beginnings

Your arrival in Sanctuary, which is called Cuiviénen by the Aelfeyn, begins on Summer Isle home to the Grey Rider. An island in the western sea which is a true sanctuary. The Grey Rider protects his lands from the ravages of war, making it an excellent location for vacation and commerce. Most of the heroes keep homes or shops here where they are able to welcome new realm arrivals.

Ask yourself this question when considering character ideas: "If my character is not going to further some god's own agenda, why was my character brought here in the first place."

House Application

The goal of your noble house is to rule an area of the map, and then to eventually rule one of the five kingdoms or support another houses' intention to rule. The ultimate goal of ruling a kingdom is to place a favored deity upon one of the Arcanum Crystals. Players accomplish this goal with the management and direction of large NPC armies in RPCSS. We expect noble house teams to be as small as three, where each of the players represent one of the house's leadership positions -- consider the "small council" of Game of Thrones. Read More ...
