Hello!

Stealing shamelessly from RwG: I am putting up some OOC recruitment for a Peerage/Nephezar-led Ringrunning Crew interested in traveling through the City of Rings! Called the Kingward Pilgrims, the basic idea consists of a band of crusaders, templars, holy men and women, faithful servants of the Lord Departed, striking Kingward on a most holy and noble Quest allegedly bestowed by visions and angels. The Quest? To convert the King to the faith of the Lord Departed, while crusading on evildoers and profane monsters along the road to the King's Keep.

Originally, I was hoping to keep recruitment entirely IC, but the concept is rather niche, such that finding characters who match the intersection of Peerage-okay, Worships-the-Lord, Human-Preferred, Keen on Ringrunning and Of The Same Timezone proved rather difficult.

There is no need for a character involved to be of House Nephezar.

Race: Human-Preferred.
Alignment: Non-Evil.
Class: Non-Druid.

My hope is to have weekly timings when everyone can make it :D




Potential Character Ideas

Quote† A friar Monk preaching charity and virtues, looking with paternal disapproval down at those who should fall short of his high standards

† A Wizard seeking to unlock summoning themes pursuant to the Golden City, enraptured and obsessed with opening Seams to the Heavens, believing that he can find the Key to the Golden Gates and thereby save his deceased beloved spouse

† A Paladin or a Laysword Fighter crusading with a kite shield as a stalwart bulwark against evildoers, seeking to earn enough virtue and glory to be anointed as a Divine Champion of the Lord Departed

† A Bard Cantor seeking to chronicle the holy pilgrimage and immortalize in songs the deeds of righteous valor and martyrdom of those setting forth on the Quest

†  A Rogue Detective professing his purpose as that of a witch hunter on the hunt for Changelings in the Deeper Rings

† A Cleric of the Lord Departed bearing His holy lance cannot be beaten

† A Planarbound Thaumaturge seeking to procure sorcerous blood of exotic beasts and recording down their properties, while surrounded by angels and spirits

† A Barbarian who believes his soul condemned after an act of secret murder in a fit of rage, throwing himself to martyrdom in pilgrimage in a bid for redemption

† A Ranger with FE: Undead and FE: Outsider marching into the Deeper Rings to purge them of the profane and otherworldly taints of undeads, demons and devils

And more...

With Evander's player taken by RL, the Kingward Pilgrimage is down to 5 people.

We have room for 2 more, though do note that joining is still subject to IC interactions!

Our Ringrunning schedule is probably going to turn weekly soon as well, due to various IRL obligations.

We are planning to schedule regular weekly ringrunning sessions on Saturdays, simply because scheduling is something of an inevitability to deconflict RL obligations.

If you are interested in creating a PC to join in the concept, please do keep that in mind, and of course, feel free to PM/Discord me if there's any questions. :)
