Valton: The New Hold, OOC & Sign-Up Thread #XXVIII

Post » Thu Jun 27, 2013 5:16 am

Welcome to the Out-of-character and sign-up thread of Valton: The New Hold, thread number 26!

The Inn is a construction-site! (Well, now it's in the OP.)

The RP Concept

As settlers we will begin to build a new hold in Skyrim in the Rift between Ivarstead and Riften. Some may choose to go to start a new life, others looking to earn coin by building, setting up a shop or becoming town guards. Others still may just find themselves there and end up deciding to stay. This RP will be very balanced between socialization and combat. Town RPs usually focus on character interaction, and that will be true with this one, but a new settlement far out in the woods may look like a ripe target to bandit clans, and wild life may come because of the scent of food (leading to hunting to lower the population of dangerous animals as well as for meat.

Valton:

An ambitious project began in the Rift several months ago: a new settlement sprung up alongside a river, between Ivarstead and Riften. Enough land was purchased for the new settlement, Valton, to be recognized as a new, separate hold, and the man who had purchased the land, Radwulf Spurvhauke, was given the title of Jarl. Valton is still growing, with the castle, Gudslott Keep, being erected first, and then several smaller buildings were built around it, though most of them are currently empty. In an attempt to attract as many citizens as possible to the new hold, Jarl Spurvhauke has set an extremely low price on these homes: a mere 1,000 golden septims, and settlers have been coming in from all over in a hope of a better life or a chance at making some coin, and as a new settlement, there is plenty of opportunity to do so.

In this RP you will enter the Hold as a settler, or looking for work. Your character can take up any job in the new hold you can think of, but quite a lot has already been taken.

Valton also has its own http://valtonthenewhold.wikia.com/wiki/Valton,_The_New_Hold._Wiki! The character's can be found there, go take a look!

(do note that some jobs that aren't on the list might still be taken, but it's unlikely any of the jobs on the list are free. Your best bet is to always check with a GM if this list is up-do-date or not though).

Squidmasher's character can be placed under the inactive section in the RP-threads original post, as he's dropped out of the RP due to lack of time.
