We are sharing this with the rest of the community because we believe in transparency and wish to invite others that are interested in exploring the advantages of being in a Lawful Good settlement to check us out as a possible home.
Ozem's Vigil
Core Values: We treat everyone with respect and the dignity endowed in being human. That means:
Providing a socially safe game space for playing Pathfinder Online, e.g.:
- Not using slurs in reference to others
- Not using sexualizing or objectifying language
- Disrespecting others is something we won’t tolerate, and is grounds for dismissal from the settlement.
Fairplay in all aspects of the game is something we expect from members, the settlement leadership, and our allies, e.g.:
- No scamming or griefing.
- No duping or exploits
- Honor contracts and treaties.
Strategic Goal: To be successful enough at both PvE and PvP aspects of the game to build Chapter Houses (tier III training) for Paladins and LG/NG/LN Clerics. To do that, we have these enabling goals:
- Support an active crafting division.
- Build trade and friendly relations with other settlements.
- Project force to maintain lawful, pro-social game play.
- Grow our settlement and support companies as they claim surrounding POIs.
- Achieve diversity in POI's—we want to support shrines (including other good Gods e.g. to Sarenrae), Taverns, Watchtowers, and Manors.
Ozem's Vigil is a Shared Endeavor: The settlement is jointly owned, and has formal power sharing and leadership between Full Metal Syndicate, Peace Through Vigilance, and Fidelis.
- Each company has a seat on the Council of Companies, and each company leader has a designated deputy—their "hand" to fill in if the leader is unavailable.
- Power sharing and leadership will be dynamic: New companies may join the settlement and take a seat on the Council of Companies. That is a big enough step that it would be a unanimous decision from the current companies.
- Settlement members who don't belong to a company are just as important, and will elect a mayor. The Mayor has a permanent advisory seat on the Council of Companies. In the event of an odd number of companies on the council, the mayor has a tie-breaking vote.
Servant Leadership
Political leadership is meant to serve the needs of settlement as a whole, by creatively solving the contradictions that are inherent in collective activity. The Council of Companies is committed to listening and understanding the will of the people, regularly soliciting feedback from the settlement through means such as:
- Town halls meetings
- Talks with interest groups (e.g. crafters, traders)
- Directly asking members for feedback on policy
- Open door policy: settlement members are encouraged to proactively share input with Council members.

As we relaunch our charter, we wanted to share some of our recent decisions as a settlement, and also make an appeal to like-community members:
1. Our commitment to independence. We have not currently signed up with either the Northern Coalition or the Roseblood Accord because we feel that one shouldn't have to join one group or another to feel like they can compete. We will forge our own path and our own destiny.
2. Our inclusion of 1-step companies and members. We would like to invite LN and NG players and members to consider joining, knowing that we plan to provide clerical training across the full alignment corner: LN/LG/NG. We also want to have POIs with Shrines dedicated to multiple good/lawful gods: we have members committed to building a shrine to Sarenrae, and want to to find members who will operate a POI to Abadar.
3. Innkeepers and Manor Lords wanted! We have existing companies committed to shrines and watchtowers, but seek diversity in POI management. We would gladly welcome and fully support a company that seeks to run their own POI in such a category.
4. Crafters and Gatherers wanted! We hope there are players who are as excited about building and supporting a settlement as others are about defending it! We need mighty smiths and artificers: ring-makers and dweomer-crafters. We need intrepid explorers willing to brave the wilderness to bring back the exotic (and quotidian) materials that will arm, guard, and grow a mighty fortress of righteousness and honor.
We need strong, committed individual players who want a safe, supportive place to make their mark. We need enthusiastic companies who have a take-charge attitude and want to run POIs. If you find any of this resonant and compelling, please consider joining our settlement, and walk the narrowest road.

I've added this thread to the Guild Recruitment & Helpful Links list alongside the individual Company Recruitment Threads and the original Ozem's Vigil thread. If you have a brief description you'd like to appear there to let people know about your Settlement while they're browsing that list, or if you'd like me to remove the older Ozem's Vigil thread, please PM me.
I wish you the very best of luck, and hope you don't mind me adding that that I personally very strongly agree with you that no group should feel compelled to join the Roseblood Accord or any other group in order to be competitive, and I hope that no one is suggesting otherwise.

Sundracon, that is such a good, readable map. Really, it should be the official Land Rush map.
Umm, on the colors. I'm sure this is an idiotic question, but red=evil and blue=good? Why aren't we blue?

The colours are assigned by GW, and I'm pretty sure they are meaningless. Otherwise I'm going to have to start making paranoid assumptions about those of us that are green or gold instead of red or blue.

OZEM'S VIGIL
Some great people have found their way to us in the last week. We are thrilled but we need more. Come be part of a strong Lawful Good settlement that is dedicated to making an enjoyable gaming experience for ourselves and those around us. We are poised in the north of the map. Possibly on the frontier when the lands expand? Join us and secure this great spot as a jumping off station for the reach toward Fort Riverwatch!
We want Companies interested in running Points of Interest around the settlement. Your own spot to manage and full representation in the Council of Companies. Those can be Shrines, Inns, mines, Watch Towers, lumber camps, you name it.
We want individual free agents of all types.
We want those interested in all of the commoner, expert, and (future) aristocratic fields. We want PVP and PVE enthusiasts.
If you are unsure, get in touch. We are ready to answer questions.
Thank You :)
Carry on...

If you have read the above and it looks like something you can enjoy as a playstyle, contact us: Ozem's Vigil
We have three strong companies and a growing number of Free Agents. We still want to offer POIs to the right Companies seeking them. We still need Free Agents. Anyone planning to play Lawful Good, Lawful Neutral, or Neutral Good and in sync with a positive atmosphere is encouraged to apply.
We offer a place in a Fellowship, with equal rights in governing among equals.
Bringslite of Fidelis Goblin Squad Member |
We are still here. The base parts of a great community for Good.
Internal interest is high and diversity is wide.
WE have our paladins,
our lawful monks,
our good hearted rangery rogues,
our gatherers/craftsmen/merchants and managers,
our dabblers in and committed to the arcane,
our fearless fighters,
and much interest in The Divine covering multiple Gods.
A goodly deal of room to grow in a rowdy land that needs taming.
Companies: Full Metal Syndicate, Peace Through Vigilance, and Fidelis. We want to talk to more and build our Fellowship. There are POI's to claim, build, and make your own place.
A growing class of Citizenry we call our Free Agents.
Get in contact with us. Join us. Come play the Good Guys and Gals.

I'm excited to see we're continuing to grow--we just passed Aragon to take back 7th place in the Landrush (at least for now!).
We're still hoping to find more folks who are interested in:
-Crafting or Gathering
-Operating an Inn
-NG/LN worshipers who want to run a Shrine
Not we would say no to fellow LG fighters and clerics, but we have some folks who want to go in the above directions, and want to strengthen their ranks.

Ozem's Vigil is actively recruiting companies that wish to make their own mark in the River Kingdoms. We have an active, strong user base represented and plan on establishing ourselves as the premiere Lawful Good settlement. Looking into the War of the Towers, the most successful settlements are the ones that are going to have a large group of companies working together to grow their city's potential.
This falls right in line with Ozem's Vigil vision from the very beginning, as we are a union of three companies plus free agents already. But we're looking for more diverse voices to fill our ranks and join us at the table. Shortly our new initiative will launch and we'd love for you to be apart of it.
So if you find yourself Lawful Neutral, Neutral Good or just plain ol' Lawful Good - please give us a moment and check us out.

Why yes, yes we do have a plan. Ozem's Vigil will land on our feet regardless of where we end up, and we will immediately begin working to develop friendships and working to ensure that anyone in our settlement has the best possible access to training.
We assume that all citizens of the river Kingdoms are inherently decent people who want nothing more than to provide for kin and kind as best they may.
As a union of multiple, independent, companies plus free agents that is actively seeking diversity, we will offer our citizens a home like no other, regardless of which hex we end up in. We are eager to work hard to make a place for each unique voice and our final location will have only a tenuous connection to how we achieve that. The world is fleshing out as we speak, and Ozem's Vigil intends to be a rock-solid part of whatever foundation on which it rests.

The Land Rush is over. Many congratulations to the groups that secured a settlement spot for EE! It was a grueling 10 weeks, but also very fun and challenging.
If you are one of the people or groups that did not secure your own place, for whatever reasons... you did not vote or just wound up below the cut off, Ozem's Vigil may have a place for you. If you need somewhere to hang your hat and get your training for the War of Towers period (or longer), contact us. Alignment will not be a factor for some time, bot we will not just accept anyone.
What we are looking for:
-Positive individuals/groups that prefer a positive environment. Those that prey on other players need not apply.
-Willing to embrace this game for what it is. You need not be a PVP enthusiast. You will need to work with our PVP members to be as safe as possible.
-Willing to be a team player to the point of either aiding in the War of Towers through holding you own tower or selling some of your crafts to those that do.
-Understanding that when alignment becomes relevant, Ozem's Vigil will go lawful good and to stay you will need to choose LG, LN, or NG. If you would prefer to leave then (or before) you will be sent on your way with our thanks and all the assistance that we can grant to get you going. We take care of those that take care of the River Kingdom's premier Lawful Good Society.
Carry on....
