<i>Now that the spell has been lifted our heroes begin to return to their homes on the Mainland.  The Red Robes have fled, and few can be seen any more in Evervale.  Fights have broken out all over as any number of people enact revenge on any red robes they can find.  There are plans for the estate owners to call a gathering on Monday Night to discuss the state of the world and what needs to be done. Some ask, was this the doing of Abraxes? Or just a very complex plot managed by a few fanatics. Yet the Grey Rider and Brother Thomas have not yet been found -- our heroes await any news that will give them hope to bring this red robe to justice and hopefully find the Grey Rider alive.</I>

<i>Rumors that the child-eater had escaped Underhill and had taken refuge in the Dark Forest of Summer Isle quickly spread through the people of Evervale. Before long, a group of brave men and women set out to apprehend the fugitive once and for all. The Dark Forest is no safe place and the group was beset by goblins and other denizens of the region, however, the drive and determination of the group never waned.

No trail of the wicked fey was given, only the region, and the group trekked deeper into the woods until they reached The Dark Tower. Expecting to find clues or remnants of the child-eater's presence, they encountered a far more sobering sight: a mage circle carefully crafted upon the floor of the tower and a dozen red robed figures focused and chanting around it.

Happy Holiday's to everyone. We would like to announce some changes to the shard, but before we get into that I feel that I have to provide some clear statements about the future of the shard.  
  
At first, shock and fear gripped the heroes, for magic is punishable by death, though both of these emotions made way for quick anger. Seizing two of the mages, the heroes managed to interrupt the mages just before the spell was cast and in that moment, the rest of the red robed mages magically transported themselves away. Demanding answers to panicked questions, the mages that remained revealed the illusion spell created by none other than Brother Thomas to make the entirety of Summer Isle believe The Brotherhood was in control. The mages themselves were held by threats to perform the spell each night to keep the isle complacent. Now that the spell was broken and the circle destroyed by the heroes, the men and women of Summer Isle would soon regain all their memories.

Role-play is a team sport, a shared story, and it can not happen without players dedicated to creating role-play.  The staff and admins understand that our players want seer run storylines - we really do.  However, against all effort, the fact remains that our team simply does not have seers. Players will have to create their own roleplay -- all we can do is provide a mechanical framework that simulates a living world.
  
Even as the heroes regained their memories in anguish, recalling those missing and the crimes committed by others, one glaring fact remained: The Grey Rider, Summer Isle's guardian, had been captured. One party member, Corbin Merser, a true believer, was brought under scrutiny for his involvement and belief in the extremist cult, The Brotherhood, and placed under arrest and jailed. His fate is not yet determined.

If you do not choose to role-play your hunting or crafting -- that is your choice. If you do not role-play with posted [[News and Rumors]] -- that is your choice. If you do not use the [[Message of the Day|MOTD]] and Looking for RP feature to find others to RP with -- that is your choice.  If you do not role-play with the activity generated in RPCSS by Estate Owners -- that is your choice. If you do not role-play with in-game quests -- that is your choice.
  
The remaining heroes set off to every corner of Cuiviénen to bring news of Summer Isle. As for the people of Summer Isle, their true memories return to them... with, perhaps, a newer set of problems altogether.</i>

So that brings us to the changes we are going to make to hopefully make the mechanical options more accessible:
 +
# We will be removing the alliances and returning to normal UO guild stones placeable by any player with a rented house.
 +
# We will be making RPCSS estates "claimable" by any player with the UO Gold to claim one. 
 +
#*Estates will start off with an increased base number of hexes, armies, and court level.
 +
#*The number of hexes an estate can control will be raised to 20 hexes to encourage more conflict between nearby estates.
 +
#*NPC Estates will also be implemented to keep the living world alive and challenging.  
 +
# In game quests will be implemented over time. These will be simple quests in the style UO is known for.
  
The next quest will be on Thursday at 8 pm.

Additional living world tools will be designed and implemented over time.  It is our hope that these tools will provide additional avenues to spark role-play.

To our new players:  I see we have quite a number of new players who have joined recently. I'd like to take a moment to welcome you all and give you an update of what is in the works for the shard in the next few weeks, more details will follow, but here is a quick snap shot.

We use a web based games system, think of it like a multi player online game of risk.  This system allows a player to claim a castle in game, and control (virtually) the land around it, its armies, treasury and spies.  This system allows players to roleplay as the owner/lord of the estate and have rp conflict with other estate owners.  This provides a fascinating back drop to conflict RP.

Right now RPCSS is down while we do some updates, those updates will include the ability for any player, with enough gold, to claim an available state.  So feel free to look around at the various estates on the mainland and save up your gold! The next wave of war and conquest is about to begin and you could be in the thick of things.

Latest revision as of 23:50, 25 December 2020

This is the auto open page we will be using to make sure everyone is on page with the Winter Story Arc. Posts will be posted with the most recent first. All players are expected to play along with the Story Arc. We have a limited variety of alternate response. Consequently, if you do not feel as if the world impacting effects posted here would affect your character -- you may DM Lara to discuss -- you will be expected not to role-play until you have both spoken and a resolution agreed upon.

Happy Holiday's to everyone. We would like to announce some changes to the shard, but before we get into that I feel that I have to provide some clear statements about the future of the shard.

Role-play is a team sport, a shared story, and it can not happen without players dedicated to creating role-play. The staff and admins understand that our players want seer run storylines - we really do. However, against all effort, the fact remains that our team simply does not have seers. Players will have to create their own roleplay -- all we can do is provide a mechanical framework that simulates a living world.

If you do not choose to role-play your hunting or crafting -- that is your choice. If you do not role-play with posted News and Rumors -- that is your choice. If you do not use the MOTD and Looking for RP feature to find others to RP with -- that is your choice. If you do not role-play with the activity generated in RPCSS by Estate Owners -- that is your choice. If you do not role-play with in-game quests -- that is your choice.

So that brings us to the changes we are going to make to hopefully make the mechanical options more accessible:

  1. We will be removing the alliances and returning to normal UO guild stones placeable by any player with a rented house.
  2. We will be making RPCSS estates "claimable" by any player with the UO Gold to claim one.
    • Estates will start off with an increased base number of hexes, armies, and court level.
    • The number of hexes an estate can control will be raised to 20 hexes to encourage more conflict between nearby estates.
    • NPC Estates will also be implemented to keep the living world alive and challenging.
  3. In game quests will be implemented over time. These will be simple quests in the style UO is known for.

Additional living world tools will be designed and implemented over time. It is our hope that these tools will provide additional avenues to spark role-play.

Keep an eye on the update thread for both RPCSS and the Shard to know when these chances will be officially released.

To our new players: I see we have quite a number of new players who have joined recently. I'd like to take a moment to welcome you all and give you an update of what is in the works for the shard in the next few weeks, more details will follow, but here is a quick snap shot.

We use a web based games system, think of it like a multi player online game of risk. This system allows a player to claim a castle in game, and control (virtually) the land around it, its armies, treasury and spies. This system allows players to roleplay as the owner/lord of the estate and have rp conflict with other estate owners. This provides a fascinating back drop to conflict RP.

Right now RPCSS is down while we do some updates, those updates will include the ability for any player, with enough gold, to claim an available state. So feel free to look around at the various estates on the mainland and save up your gold! The next wave of war and conquest is about to begin and you could be in the thick of things.

Good Afternoon Everyone -- Staff has been having some pow wows and are brainstorming on some ideas that will motivate players to log in. However, as you all know -- players must also be part of the process of keeping the motivation going. Our winter quest will be entering its final phase for wrap up, and as soon as we have a date and time it will be posted. In the meantime I hope everyone is safe and sound.
