Caernarfon
Caernarfon is a northern Welsh fantasy kingdom ruled by the
Gwynedd family for many centuries. The regnant, Queen Caera Anne
Gwynedd makes her home at Caernarfon Castle, located on the
southwest end of Menai Straits. Here, humans, dragons, drow, orcs
and elves live along side one another and gods visit. Place of
enchantment where roleplay, gaming and warcraft have reached an art
form and runes are yet known. Return from the crusades, be a seeker
your quest, live a life found in Camelot and write your own
dreams.
Our Rooms
Main room of Caernarfon, Beaumaris Castle
The royal castle is located at Beaumaris, where regnant, Queen
Caera Anne Gwynedd makes her home. The mighty fortress of Beaumaris
Castle and the village on found on Menai Strait.
Outlands
of Caernarfon, Castle Dolbadarn
Where Caernarfon and Conwy castles were and the surroundings, the
lands were deeply affected. There are tears or rips between planes
and times, which cause strange creatures, odd looking humans to
fall through these rips and barbarians from the south cross over.
On the edge of this wild domain, is Castle Dolbadarn. This is a
place where the tales of Robin Hood, Merlin, Arthur and the Round
Table can come alive, the eagle banners of the Romans once flew,
thrones have been won and lost and the god, Thor and perhaps even
barbarian Conan yet walk. A realm for the seeker of adventure.
Anglesey
Isle, Aberlong Castle
North of Beaumaris lies of the lands of Aberlong and the castle,
belonging to Prince Tomas Fletcherson of Caernarfon. This is the
northern most border of the kingdom of Caernarfon.
General Rules
- You are accountable for the rules even if you haven't read
them. The same rules apply for the main room and subrooms. RPO site
rules are strongly followed here.
- Castles And Who Belongs In Them
- Yes, we have castles in our home, but unless you have business
there, been invited or visiting royals, you do not need to be
within the walls. Wandering around in guarded areas in the castle
can get you killed; as was the standards in these times. Don't have
false expectations of staying in the castles, they arent B&Bs,
but are military fortresses. There are inns in the towns and
villages.
- Our castle gates are manned with guards at all times, so you
will be checked at the gate, so don't say, "it was unlocked and I
walked in."
- OOC Chatter and ~O~ Observer
- This is a role play room; OOC, out of character remarks are to
be taken to PM, private messaging or kept at a minimum.
- Don't enter with OOC or ~O~ with your name or in your tags.
Come in to roleplay. No watchers or observers are permitted. When
you come in, you are expected to participate in roleplay. If you
are new, ask for assistance from the Room Leader or a room member.

considered an animal or critter.
- We are a medieval theme room and we do not accept characters in
the room which are after the historical timeline of the Middle

be considered a disruption. Read our guidelines for more

Other Rules
- Full Kill and Mirror Zone
We are a full kill and mirror zone. Mirror zone means if your
character or our members are unable to kill, capture, raid or use
magic in your proven medieval home, then you can't do it here. Be
warned though, we can still kill you.
- At least two defenders who are members of the kingdoms main
room or subroom you are in must be present, before a non-member
attempts an attack, kill, raid or capture in our home. A defender
is a member of the kingdom you are in who is wearing Knight,
Ranger, Paladin, Man at Arms, Shield Maiden or Guard tags.
- Example would be, if you arrived in Dragonwyck, there would
need to be two defenders wearing either, Knight, Ranger, Paladin,
Man at Arms, Shield Maiden or Guard tags, who are wearing on their
tag saying they are a member of Dragonwyck. Of course the rest of
our rules would apply to the situation also. This rule can be
lifted by a Room Leader.
- Without a legitimate and verifiable, proven medieval home and
character name in your tags listed as one of their members, you may
not kill, attack, raid or capture in our kingdoms. Please note the
Mirror Zone Rule above. Also Kill and Combat Rules apply.
