I would advise ALL knighthood members to gather donations for the knighthood (to be given to a knight), recently I have received NONE and at this rate we will never get anywhere, myself and Mark are not the only ones building the 'project', ALL the knighthood has to participate!! We need several thousands of bricks and hundreds of silvers, I would say every members needs to get at least 50 silvers in worth of materials, we arent in a knighthood to be lazy!

Honor

Post by Ghost_Archon »

Last night there was an altercation in Varsikar between Revlen and Grant Rothman. I went with Grant to seek the truth to the problem. Whilst I was gathering Revlen's side of the story, Grant sent a dove to Matt to have him come and aid him to fight Revlen.

Both parties decided to confront each other. Angry words ensued to the point where Grant declared a duel of honor to the death... Revlen at first declined due to the fact that Grant was quiet injured from earlier. Grant wouldn't take no for an answer and so I stepped in between the two. Grant struck me as I was protecting Revlen from something that he didn't wish to join in.

Shortly there after Revlen accepted and all parties stepped to the square. I clearly stated to Matt that he should know that he had no position in the fight and that there would be consequenses. As soon as the fight began Matt immediately ran to strike at Revlen's back. As I see it, he went against the rules of the duel to the death, and stepped in striking at Matt only when he continued to strike at Revlen during this bout. Maggie also moved to stop Matt in his attacks.

The fight ended as Grant fell to his knees unconscience. Matt declared that he joined the fight as paying debt to Grant.

As I see it... it was dishonorable for Grant to request that the debt be payed in this manor, and it was dishonorable for Matt to accept this method of payment.

His loyalty to his friends and kinsmen is undenyable in its strenght. I question the sense of honor in Matt.

I request in the least a talk with Matt about honor and the rules of duels to the death.

All members should stay out of the business of Grant and Revlen. Both of them are sword happy and it isn't worth our time. This is just advice from personal experience and not an order. Since you and Mat share rank, I see no rules of the knighthood being broken. If you wish to discuss it further talk with me or Arameh by dove.

Furthermore,
I ask that all members of the knighthood use some of their time to keep dain company in the arena while he has agreed to stay there until more is revealed about the magic that had taken him over.

I have also heard that Grant told Ascius that he is a member of Kallahorn, and would like to make it clear that this is not the case.

Mark I would suggest a punishment for the squire Matholamew for having acted agaisnt certain rules, that could be in form of donations for Kallahorn or whatever you wish, I clearly thing this is necessary but I thought I would let you chose which since you are the one in charge of him.

A piece of paper is added

The rule in question is

6) You must never attack an unaware opponent in any way, you can only attack one's back if this one turned his back on purpose. You must also never attack someone unarmed, with exception of certain creatures of malcontent.

If Amroth is right, Matholamew attacked Revlen in the back as he was unaware.

If Mat did in fact attack Revlen in the back there will be reprocution. However I would like confirmation in dove please amroth as it is not entirely clear to me from your post weather he was interupted or actually struck Revlen.

Yes, I did in fact strike, but I was stating to Revlen that I would not back down either, and so he was quite aware I was going to strike...I struck him from the front initially, so I did not sneak up and attack his back...

A message is posted on the board of Kallahorn.

The lad Matthew stuck me to my side first, whilst i was in bout with young Rothman. Young Rothman is now in bed in Varshikar, healing from his wounds. Amroth was honorable by aiding me against the elf and also helping me aid Rothman in stitching him up. Let it be known that Matthew did as he did, but i never wish to see the lad again.

I think that we shall need to take some actions here. First off, since the beginning of the construction of Kallahorn, only a few people have been working to get the materials and money for it. The knights, only three men have been working to build the current tower, to gather 500 silvers and over 10 000 bricks as well as several other sort of materials, such as wood, sand and tools. What did the squires and pages gather? Around 50 silvers, at MOST and only from the same people.

This is not something to take lightly, Kallahorn is meant to become our home and if we work enought, I am sure we can make something great out of that and from there even have citizents to be completely independant. But before we can attain this, we need money and materials, LOADS of them (around 2000 silvers and who knows how many bricks), and as such ALL of you have to work to gather them. Since donations do not seem to come from the member's free will, I thought about starting some game, even though it surely will not be fun for everyone.

------------------------------------------------------------------
The donation race


The rules are simple, each seasons ((1 month in real life)), the knights will keep a written record of the donations of the page and squires, the written version of the donations will be kept on the first post of our board with notes. There will be a minimum donation worth of 20 silvers (donated in money or bricks) each season per members. Up to now, I am sure you all agree that this 'game' is rather boring, so let us add a little more 'fun'.



Members having the 'lazy' status

We remember that I had said the minimum donations each season was 20 silvers? Hopefully you have wondered what would happen if you didnt give that amount. It is quite simple, if you either have not given 20 silvers into a full season OR you are the member in the knighthood having given the lowest amount of silvers worth, you will gain the status of 'lazy'. For those that might think so, it is NOT an insult, it is a status. Here is the list of what happens to those having the lazy status :


Getting the lazy status for one season : You only need to give an apology on the knighthood's board, and give a reasonable reason about the why you coulnt give enought ressources (unless the knights decide you given enought).

Getting the lazy status for 2 seasons in a row : You will receive a punishment which shall be decided by the current knights, it will depend slightly about the person's donations and behavious towards the matter.

Getting the lazy status for 3 seasons in a row : You position within the knighthood will be questionned and you might also have a heavy punishment, to be discussed between the knights.


Members having the 'perseverant' status

The game might be harsh for most people, BUT, there are also good things to gain! The biggest donater of the knighthood shall gain the status 'perseverant' and receive a gift from the knights as a form of items, the minimum worth of the gift shall be of 15 silvers. HOWEVER, the gift shall raise slightly if the donater gains the status 'perseverant' for seasons in a row, so the longer you keep the title you better you will get!
---------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the full explanation of the "The donation race" game, in which EVERY members of the knighthood will participate else than the knights, which shall be 'organising' it and still keep on gaining a large amount of ressources. This game shall continue until either Kallahorn's main building is fully built, or I end the game myself. If any members of the knighthood have difficulties getting the ressources, they should contact a knight the quickest possible because the reason " I dont know how to gain money " will not be acceptable at the end of the season.

I wish everyone a good game, that everyone keeps it fair play, you should all be fine if you just make the efforts, effort is the key! Good luck all, and now let the game begin!

I am having seckond thoughs on joining this knighthood now Mark. To me it is starting to look more like a kindergarden. Punishing your members for not DONATING? Sounds more like a fee to me. For 20 silvers each season, I could soon start a knighthood of my own. And with Kallahorn's reputation, it would have a better reputation right from the begining.

You are new to this land and understand not what it takes to have a serious knighthood. For a knight 20 silver is nothing and we want to teach our members how to make silver properly. Arameh has raised over 200 silver and I have gathered over 10,000 bricks which total to 200 silver. If we have more people who know what they are doing we will have a castle to live in, unlike your proverbial knighthood.

Also a full name would be helpful, how is "A" supposed to tell me who you are. There is more to joining the knighthood to saying you want to join. You would already have to do a task that all members have done for gathering supplies to help the knighthood as a whole.

Furthermore this is a place for knighthood business, not for want to be pages that want to complain about our ways. All those who are not of kallahorn who want to speak with a knight should send a dove and not write here.

20 silvers seems like a lot for those who can't make money easily, expecially the pages. I was no where close to getting 20 silvers when I was a page, and I still can't seem to get a hold of 20 silvers without using it to help the pages. At the moment I am busy working on carpentry and will be having trouble obtaining money until I become proficient in it. If I can say anything in my defence, I did saw 600 boards for Mark to use in the castle.

Yes the castle is important, but when we set goals of pages need to train, and squires need to train and work on gaining a skill, it is hard to gather that money. I will gladly gather money for the knighthood, if I find the time on top of all my other tasks in the knighthood.

Meet with me and I will teach you how to make money more quickly while still being able to do your amateur carpentry. Training is also an excellent way to make money with proper training. Anyone feel free to send me a dove with the things you have been doing with your time lately and things you aspire to do. Then I will do my best to suggest ways of helping with the castle that may coincide with these things.

In fact I encourage all the pages to write me a dove so I can help. This may seem alot to ask but I am sincere that it is all about knowlege and learning the tricks of the trades.

I would just congratulate Amroth for having up to now, given a total amount of 45 silvers in donations, he is leading by far for now.

But I never asked to join, Mark, I was asked.
A forced fee, is hardly a donation.
Punishing members who do not pay you, does not belong in a knighthood.
A knight is suposed to be of noble birth, are you?

Well certainly no one asked you to write on our guild papers, Aeridor. Please stop, it is disrespectful. If you want to have philosophical debates on what a knighthood is do it on your own time with people who care. Any further writting on these boards from you I will take as an intentional sign of disrespect and dishonoring our knighthood.
DO NOT send me a dove,

Skaalib Drurr has raised to the rank of squire!

Also, I would advice some of the pages to stop sleeping and work on something! Lazyness is no longer allowed within the knighthood.

I am sorry for my absense lately, my brothers. I have been quite occupied with the sickness of my dear uncle, who looks ready to pass away soon. Zhambra bless him and his path.. I will try to gather resources needed for the project, but I am not sure I will be able to gather a formidable amount. I hope you will understand in my time of need.

It actually makes around 2 months I am waiting for you to get keys to the arena, for the knighthood members, contacting Lorian and buying some keys shoulnt be much a problem. I do not understand why you do not accept the co-ownership, since I have been paying up to now 62 silvers for the arena and you..nothing, please explain yourself about the matter else this whole thing seems rather greedy from you.
