Posted December 15, 2013 (edited) Together we rise, Together we shall fall City of Oaksted LoreThe fires where fresh, the shouts and screams as villagers where slaughtered within there homes. Frostalphus stood infront of him home, as it burned and crumbled to the ground. His deed was in flames. He looked around, The unknown enemy had broken in through the town walls. It was unexpected. Frostalphus remembered all the people who had helped build this place. And felt a pang of regret as everything crumbled. Right before his eyes. He turned in time to see a nogump come crashing through the gates and charge towards him. He closed his eyes and felt a painful slam as the nogumps grafted morning stars slammed into him. He slipped into unconsciousness. He awoke to the sounds of birds chirping and the sound of the lake. The Morning air smelt fresh and warm, he slowly opened his eyes and looked around, nothing was left, only ruins. Only piles of rubble where houses used to be. A nogump lay slayed in the plaza. The kingdom banner tattered and ruined lay upon the nogump. Frostalphus slowly got up and walked towards the banner, he picked it up and rolled up the cloth, he put it in his backpack along with the rest of the tools he still had. He began walking forwards, Past the rubble of the old mine door. But all of a sudden a man came out, it was his second in command, klickguy, he joined frostalphus on his journeys. Day and night they traveled. Following wherever the roads would take them. Until one day they stumbled across the steppe, and they looked through the barren wasteland, just as they began to walk a familiar and warm voice shouted. The two travelers turned in surprise as an old friend rode up on his cart. Thatdamnkid told the two to hop on and come with him to his deed. The two travelers quickly got on and they began riding through the steppe. Thatdamnkid had heard about what happened to the town and told them if they ever need help, he would be there to assist. The two travelers thanked him. And as they entered the desert Frostalphus told thatdamnkid to stop the cart. He had spotted a spot of land. The two travelers walked forwards and told Thatdamnkid they had found there location. To start afresh. Start there lives over. They began working, Klickguy cut the trees down and Frostalphus turned them into planks. They worked together and soon they had built a shack. Within this shack frostalphus planned the city on paper, buildings, rules and whatever he could think of. His imagination ran wild. City walls thick and defended well, Catapults on every tower. Frostalphus had it all planned out. Days passed as the two worked hard. People came and helped. And soon the entire land was being raised. New friends where made and skills where learnt, Frostalphus vowed that whatever happened. He would not let this city fall. Recruiting Oaksted, a city of safety, comfort and warmth, no fear of the outside world. But that is still a thought, we require assistance in the creation of this idea. We are recruiting, we need dedicated players, new or old, no matter from which background, to assist. There will be a rank system. Ranks: The Oaksted High councilLord: Frostalphus [Me]Military Strategist: KlickguyHigh Priest:Military General: WatkinsHead of agriculture:Head of trade: DrewkatskiPublic relations: Military:Sgt -Bowman -Swordsman -Mauler -Scout -Pike men -Axe-men - Civilian Classes:Farmer:Smith:Craftsman:Militia:Trader:Shop owner:Healer:Priest:Hunter: Elite class:From within the military ranks of oaksted, a group of elite soldiers are formed, the knights, the knights are oaksted's task force, These specifically picked group of soldiers are trained and toughened to there best.

Grand Knight:The brains of the knights operation, they send out the knights on there tasks. These are the highest of the order, only 5 at a time, they each have there own company of men.

Posted December 29, 2013 Just as a heads up, don't be too frustrated when people don't join very often or don't stick around. Structured villages like these can be fun, but in Wurm it's extremely hard to hold them together and recruit for them the way that you'd like. So when things are slow and not quite going according to plan, don't let it get to ya. Keep up the good spirits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soooo... help me out here Well, if you make a new account we have the resources to help you start afresh, decent iron to get you some tools and so on, and there's lots to be done, planks, bricks and mortar, farming etc, so i suppose it would be quite quick to start afresh, depending on how determined you are on getting them skills up Its ultimately up to you, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
