Server Rules


Rules:


This is a role-playing server, please read all of the rules, so we can all have a better PW experience!!

Factions:Faction members must RP with Outlaws. The lord must declare war by Sending a messanger, they cannot move further until the messanger has returned to castle. Then by renaming their faction( Ex, Red Dragons War with Rebel milita) Also let the enemy lord know to do the same! Next you must announnce it 3 times in global.Faction members must RP with enemy serfs. If an enemy wishes to surrender Request a ransom(below 5k), tell them to drop their weapons and escort them to the commoners serf training area! If they try to run  you can kill them, If they have no money you can hold them as POW if they wish( dont be an ass and lock them up for a while, also if they ignore you then kill them)Faction members are forbidden to kill Commoners!NO  Randoming! Taking an enemy factions castle or village is considered a hostile action!

WAR Rules: The lord must declare war by Sending a messanger, they cannot move further until the messanger has returned to castle. Then by renaming their faction( Ex, Red Dragons War with Rebel milita) Also let the enemy lord know to do the same! Next you must announnce it 3 times in global

Assassinations: . All assassination contracts must be announced in global. Simply say something along the lines of, "A contract has been made, beware." However, after the person has been killed they have the right to know who hired the assassin and why via OOC chat. This is a matter of reconciliation and allows the victim to feel less confused, and accept to a much greater degree their assassination. The victim simply has to ask in global chat why the assassin was hired, and who hired them. As it is OOC chat they cannot use this info to exact IC vengeance. It's strictly for OOC purposes. This also helps prove it wasn't a hired random. Assassinations must have legitimate RP reason for the hire

Mercenaries: Mercenaries MUST join the faction they are hired for as soon as they can. Mercenaries cannot participate in warfare as commoners,. Mercenaries may only KOS enemies if they are in the faction that hired them.  Joining a faction as a merc is cost free and easy. By clicking once on the training station for your class you join the faction without re-training. To leave you simply click once on a, "Leave your faction and become a serf" button. Both of these are cost free, There is also a peasent staff training located around the map! this is also cost free!

Commoners: You may ONLY kill / be killed by outlaws, DO NOT KILL OTHER COMMONERS UNLESS YOU ROLEPLAY! You MUST Role play with the outlaws,when they try to ask for money to rob you, say something like " ok, I surrender!",or "Never!," don't just attack. Commoners are forbidden to kill faction members!Commoners can NOT steal, if your going to steal become an outlaw!

Outlaws:
To become an outlaw, you MUST train at the castle ruins tavern. Do not Random commoners, or TK! Outlaws Must ROLEPLAY with Faction members . Outlaws MUST Role play with Commoners, no exceptions! Commoners should not be robbed for more than 500 coins if they are wearing non armor gear(anything under mail), and no more then 2k if otherwise. NO RAIDING CASTLES

NLRNew Life Rule, means that upon death you forget EVERYTHING about who killed you. Do not return to the scene of your death for at least five minutes. You will not remember anything about who killed you or where it happened ICly, so OOCly should stay away from where you died. (IC: In character, OOC: Out of character). However, you can choose to RP it as a knockout. Meaning the blow you took caused you to forget what happened to you. However you may still know who you are. You must RP a recovery of memory that falls outside your identity or your death

POW's:If an enemy surrenders, and you are opposing factions or faction and outlaws, you may
1) Disregard and execute them. This must be done RPly.
2) Imprison until war is over.
3) Imprison and offer Ransom for release (must also be honored if met!) Also make reasonable ransoms (No more then 100k if it's a lord, no more then 20k for soldiers, no more then 15k for serfs).
4) Enslave.

Taxation's:Taxing someone is perfectly fine, it is a great part of role-play. Taxing must be done RPly. To tax an area you must have people guarding it. Bridges, entrance to places, and use of utilities are all taxing. If you are not taxing one of these things it's considered robbing, and you must be an outlaw. Tax of entrance to castles should not exceed 1k. Taxation of entering other places, passing bridges, or using utilities should not exceed 750.

Ferryman job: I have put a boat and sailor class for commoners and outlaws now! IF you want to ferry people to a workers island, you can charge people for money, If there are multiple people are trying to do this, pls do not fight split money and raise charge for the "guard" fees against outlaws!

Metagaming: Metagaming is using OOC knowledge IC (OOC: Out of Character, IC: In character) under any circumstance. This includes telling people IC things in global chat, and reading the floaty names that appear of people's heads.

Duels/Arena Fights: If you are dueling someone or wish to duels, PLS go into the arena. The reason being, new players might think your just randoming or tking each other and create chaos, also this will prevent looting from unwanted players. Also if you are of the same faction, pls type DUEL after the kill to notify admins.

Offensive Behavior: You must show respect to other players at all times. There will be absolutely no racism, anti-Semitism, sexism or any other forms of bigotry.

Other rules: This server Has absolutely NO tollorance for Randoming , Team Kiling, and Spawn killing, First offense will Result in warning from admin or other player, Second offense will result in kick or Temp ban, 3 Strikes your out!
