I think we've got a decent start on just what you've asked.
Barbarians wanted! Join the Company that let's you be a true barbarian, not a 'civilized' barbarian that is stuffed in a waistcoat or hides in the bushes with a flimsy knife. Close your eyes for a moment and imagine the havoc, the howls and the glory of combat as you charge down a hillside with your rage brothers and sisters, crashing into the unsuspecting and cowardly knights of your enemy. Throw off the shackles of conformity and be true to yourself. Become a barbarian!
First off, free bump for Freevale. @CBDunkerson
One issue I have is that I'm not quite ready to ditch the content I've made for Prophecy. I'm also looking for Companies that want to continue being their own thing and part of the Settlement in-game. I don't want it to be the SBC's settlement, I want it to be the Settlement that the SBC is part of. It also needs to be CN, since that was the whole point. 10 weeks is a long time for this event and I've potentially got some more members on the way as well. You're very correct that recruiting with small numbers is difficult. Damn near akin to torture really. This is just the first week and everything is going to be shifting like crazy so I think I'll hold out for now but I'm not dismissing the idea. @Bluddwolf
Or... I mentioned it before but your crew could just join Prophecy since we look to be going the same route. Blunt Logic will retain their identity and put as much into developing the settlement as you'd like. You know, just sayin'. ;) P.S. We've got a badass logo.
Prophecy is about bringing together different cultures and ways of life, giving them the protection of a settlement and allowing them the freedom to pursue their dreams, whatever they may be. We seek diverse Companies to find a home inside our walls. Explorers, Crafters, PvPers, Entertainers, Clergy, there is a place for you all. As a Chaotic Neutral settlement our citizens will need to be CG, CN, CE or TN. These are alignments that fall easily into the playstyle of an FFA PVP MMO but gaming culture has taught that these are less desirable. Pathfinder Online is not like other games and while many players of other settlements will have to tiptoe around their actions the citizens of Prophecy will be able to play the game the way they want. So what laws do we enforce? Laws?! We're Chaos! Laws are created to shackle and bind others to act in a manner the lawmaker sees fit. That's not Freedom, that's slavery. Most people are content to live in their tiny boxes, as they do in real life, does that sound like fun to you? If you just sit around in your loincloth all day, picking flowers and painting pictures with dried up bug guts then you may be wondering who protects your Freedom. The answer to that is the Stone Bear Clan. The mighty Barbarians of the SBC are more than willing to crush the skulls of any who dare invade the lands of Prophecy. Any other citizen willing to stand up and fight for their Freedom will receive high praise and merit from the Council. It's about time you joined Prophecy.
@Ravenlute SBC_Prophecy_ - Tork is really the expert on these matters but my sense is "yes". A company, once it founds a Settlement, doesn't cease to exist. The Settlement comes into existence as an operation of the Company's activities, but at that point they have separate destinies. Good to hear, I've been wondering on that for a bit.
The Barbarians of the River Kingdoms are scattered and puny. The Stone Bear Clan has Powerful Warriors that will break the puny Barbarians of the River Kingdoms. Join the Stone Bear Clan and become Powerful or be crushed beneath our impressively large boots. Simple choice.
We are a CN Multi-Company Settlement with the desire to allow each Company to continue to run the way they choose while having a say in how the settlement develops. If you are a Chaotic Company, this is a no brainer. There's no tricks or hidden wires, it will only make you stronger for taking part. If you have been dancing around the idea of forming your own settlement but don't want the added pressure then stop that now and join Prophecy. As you can see we already have a functioning website and forum which can easily be designed to add functionality your Company would like to use. We are one of the very few Chaotic Settlements out there right now. Don't succumb to the Mega-Comps, join in the fight for your freedom. Become a Company of Prophecy and keep your identity.
Well, I suppose I should make some time to establish connections with KotC and some other groups. Due to the unique structure of the SBC and Prophecy we won't have proper reps until we are actually in-game. At this point we aren't necessarily going to kill on sight, it all depends on how we perceive you at the time. An offering of some kind always goes a long way to promoting neutrality.
Why should I even sign up to play if the game is stacked before the beginning? Well, because we're awesome. It's going to be fun and if it helps, you can imagine the mega-guilds as the objective to be sundered and their innards strewn across the bloody ground, left for the carrion birds to feast upon.
You've got it here:
And for some self Promotion check out the Stone Bear Clan.
If you folks weren't working on setting up your own settlement you'd be just what we're looking for in Prophecy. You could run a tavern in the settlement or own one in a POI and still be The Golden Flask. Unlike a lot of the Company/Settlement hybrids out there which are just setting up a place for their guild we are trying to establish a Multi-Company Settlement that allows each Company to maintain their identity while having a say in how the Settlement is built and run. If this sounds like something you might be interested in, let me know.
Haha, exactly! Welcome to the SBC limskmy.
That's because he's hiding the makeup smeared all over from the courtesan he was with earlier.
That makes sense. Of course this could just be the result of me spending too much time scanning these forums and be a crazy coincidence. Maybe my subliminal messaging is working too well. :p Must be that then. *closes his book of overpowered Enchantment spells* We are also not doing Ulfen, its the Linnorm Kingdoms. Call it what you will Xeen, you're a Viking and you like it. Honestly, I am just itching to get in the actual game already. These forums are too restrictive.
Nah, it's not the theme, it's the wording used. One of the reason's we're going with a Kellid history instead of Ulfen is that you are doing the Viking so we're pulling more on the generic 'Conan' barbarian type. UNC is also focused heavily on the Bandit theme, while SBC is purely Barbarian. There's enough difference that we shouldn't have to worry about being copies of each other. The annoyance is the similarities that have been cropping up lately between some UNC posts following SBC ones. I'll break this one down. SBC: "the only true home for Barbarians in PFO"
SBC: "If you want to play it safe and boring, then be a sheep..."
SBC: "We've got over a decade of PvP experience with a variety of games"
Just one line wouldn't matter but come on. If I mention a Jester in my next promotional post will you guys talk about Clowns? Of course this could just be the result of me spending too much time scanning these forums and be a crazy coincidence. Maybe my subliminal messaging is working too well. :p player haters they just don't like vikings. Lol, silly man you have no idea what you just said.
lol, keep recycling, it's good for the environment! I'm sure one day you'll have your very own promotional idea. But then, a bandit is a bandit...
Welcome Lord Zodd to the Stone Bear Clan! You'll be a perfect fit. :D If you train hard I'm sure you'll have a shot at being Chief, but how long will you be able to hold the position? I'm really looking forward to the first few days of EE when we'll be establishing who our first Chief will be.
This is being covered here: Naming Settlements and Companies
I like the idea of having a messenger service if you are really willing to do this for the long haul. I agree with Jazzlvraz that neutrality will be pretty important. If this does come to fruition and works pretty well you should also expect posers pretending to be your couriers to gain access to places they would not normally be allowed in.
*facepalm*
