???Hey guys, I was wondering if someone could tell me a bit of information about Skorghijl and maybe post a map that you have drawn from known information or just all the place names and their location on the island. So I'll wait to hear from you.

We don't have any more information than what John Flanagan has provided in his books. They didn't really mention it in the first Brotherband book (I just finished reading that one - LOVED IT!)
So the only time I remember it being mentioned is in the third Ranger's Apprentice book which I think was called "The Icebound Lands" if I remember right. (I don't have my books in front of me here to double check).
But what I remember is that it is a long narrow island mostly of barren rock and there is one shack for people to take shelter in. I remember him saying it was uninhabited and protected the mainland from some of the storms.
So I don't think there is really anything to map on it. We have not created anything about it here on Halt's Playground.
I guess you should contact Mr. Flanagan to see if he will give you any more information about the island. Sorry to not be much help.
Brandy P.S. Welcome to Halt's Playground. I hope you plan to generate a character and do some roleplaying with us. We could use some more more people who are active. Please read the rules and then feel free to do up a character. If you have any questions Ringulf, Tandar or myself can help you. Welcome aboard! (P.S.S. this thread is going to be moved to the Chatter board once I see that you have read this post.)

Thanks for the help Brandwyn, I will probably contact John (Flanagan) for some additional info about Skorghijl.
I was looking at the other members and I saw that there were positions like cook, apprentice ranger and so on. I was just wondering how you get those positions?

Hi Gorlan! Those ranks have to do with how many posts you have made, there is a breakdown someplace on the forum to tell you what they ranks are and how many posts are needed to achieve them, but I am not sure where. Just keep posting you will get to see them all.

That breakdown was on the Chatter board, but I think it may have gotten moved to the Vault or deleted by Sapphira when she was messing around with the skin that last time.
But yeah, you have to make 10 posts for the first rank and then 50 post for the second and then 100 posts.
Tandar, at one time, was trying to figure out if there was away to exclude posts on the non-in-game boards like chatter and announcements so that only your posts in-game would count but I don't think he figured out how to do that.
But they are automatic. We have no control over them and we don't really use them for anything other than they are interesting. I believe the first or second administrator of this site set them up.
