We have a lot of rangers on this forum and, if we're following RA lore closely enough, each one of them has charge over their own fief. I was wondering if, with moderator/admin consent, we could actually create a section of the forum for each fief. I realize that more than 4/5 of the fiefs of Araluen go unmentioned in the books. We'd be taking a bit of creative license, but I think we should be able to do so.
When one creates a ranger character, they create a fief as well. Perhaps not immediately. For newer members especially, one would have to show that they are committed to the forum before they get a fief.
I think it would be good and help clear up some discrepancies about where some rangers are located in Araluen. For example, all of Monkuta's actions in his own fief, I've placed in the Araluen board, but he isn't actually in the Araluen fief, because that's where Halt is. You know what I'm saying?
Thoughts and opinions?

I think I am supposed to be contacting Mr. Flannigan to see if he has any additional names of fiefs already created.
I know Tandar was of the opinion to get as many names from him as we could before we start making up new fiefs - if I remember correctly when this came up a few months ago.
Of course I forgot all about it and haven't contacted Mr. Flannigan...

I think it's quite good an idea and that we should limit the number of rangers per character. They seem to be overpopulating nowadays...

This is a question I had when I first made my ranger character and since I did not really have any answers I just said that for personal reasons Ringulf was a wandering ranger that at this time had no fief. However as has been cited each ranger should have a fief and if I now have an apprentice (even though it started as an informal arrangement) I think I owe it to her to give her the best training I can. We are making back story to explain how we got together and where we will start out but we will be starting at a point after we have been together for about a year since she is 16. I would be partial to a north eastern coastal fief as I am half Scandian and look forward to some possible RP with the Scandians and the Scotti as well as the Norgate fief. Is there any problem with me choosing a fief in this area and selecting a name for it? I have a name selected it is the name of my email "Marshwood" and it would be situated on Marshwood Bay on the North east coast at the border between Araluan and Picta east of Norgate and north of Caraway, as I look at the map it would be right around that little forked river. We can always change it if Mr. Flanagan decides to populate that area.

I'm thinking we should also have a list of all the Rangers and their fiefs once we've got all this sorted out. Then, you make a Ranger and sign up for a fief or make a new one if you need to. That way no two people claim one fief.
BTW, Muse is currently in Araluen (if you see BAHC you'll know why) but he lives in Norgate. Anyone have a problem with that?

Ringulf, I talked with Tandar and that is fine. We are going to start letting people make up fiefs.
I am also tasked with contacting Mr. Flannigan and seeing if we can get some more names of fiefs out of him.

Well OK that's great I will start working on the Marshwood fief and make a little overall view of it and its location and features for your approval and start on some NPCs to populate it

Send your info on it to me. Tandar may or may not want to make a board for it, so I can feed him the info and post it on the staff board. (Same for you Edwynus, if you want to do something up on your fief too that you came from.)
There is a thread in the Guides (I think) that has info on fiefs and special interest groups that this will be added to once you have fleshed them out a bit.

The Battlemaster of Seacliff, Sir Norris, is officially 'Sir Norris of Rook.' -hinthint Rook-
BTW, on the apprentice list, Muse is Gwen's mentor now, and they're in Norgate I guess.
