De Ravin Parish Faction Application

Post by Lexi » February 20th, 2021, 12:39 am

Basics & Logistics

1. Have you read all of the prerequisites and considerations and do you agree to abide by them?

- Yes

2. What is the name of your intended Faction?

- de Ravin Parish (House de Ravin?)

3. What is the expected or intended size of the Faction in terms of player characters?

- At start approximately 8 and we will see where it goes.

4. What is the expected or intended size of the Faction in terms of its’ lore concept, and/or including NPCs?

- As a Prelacy House, we intend to rp a proper Parish with both PCs and NPCS. RPly it would be a significant size; I would liken it to a small European estate with peasants, guards, staff, and family.

5. Roleplaying wise, how influential will the Faction strive to be? Will it tend to stick to itself and not make waves, or will it try and become a household name? How will the Faction accomplish this level (or lack thereof) of influence and reputation?

- de Ravin Parish will strive to become a household name and get involved in the politics of the Church and world. They intend to use their station and status to help the people of their Parish and beyond, as well as support the Church and the other factions in good standing. As a family of some means, charity is one of their main focuses and will use that to garner favor in the First Province.

6. Does the Faction have any unique colors, sigils, banners, or signage that uniquely identifies it? What is the significance of it?

Colors: Red (sacrifice/blood/holy fire) and Gold (divinity/victory)
Charge: A black raven
Field: Gold and Red triangles, connected at a central point in the middle

Goals & Future

1. What purpose, direction or goal does the Faction have in the world at large?

- As with most factions, it should go without saying (and does) that their main concern is with the safety and cultivation of their own lineage and people. Publicly, the family intends to support and strengthen the Church in any way possible, sending some of their number to join the Legion and the clergy as well as providing material goods and coin. The virtue that the family has embodied since their Prelate ancestor laid down her life in the name of Decus has been sacrifice and while they benefit from their position within society, they give of their time and resources in service to what remains of humanity, ever in honor and praise of the One True God. Someone must be the light if hope is to survive in the darkness.

2. What purpose, direction or goal does the Faction have within the quarantined First Province in particular?

- Initially the goal is to establish themselves within the Province before offering what aid and assistance they can to their neighbors. It is in the best interest of all that attention is turned to the eradication or control of the Torment as well as the tainted undead that spring from its wake. As such, they have members who will be reporting to the front lines and those who will stay behind to provide for the needs of the many.
Should their star rise higher due to their efforts they will praise Decus for His favor and blessings.

3. Role-playing wise, what would the Faction seek to accomplish within the next six to twelve months? What are their immediate and long-term goals?

- Their immediate goal, as stated before, is to establish themselves and their base of support in the First Province so that they can offer their services to the Church in providing for the masses and strengthening the Province. Spreading the Truth through good works, deeds, and charity and tending to the faithful in whatever capacity they are able as well as helping to root out heresy and dissidence should it come to light.
Over the months, the main concern will be to grow the faction in all ways including physical presence, reputation, and influence.

4. Is the Faction famous or infamous for anything in particular? Will it strive to be famous or infamous for anything in the near future?

- They are known for their steadfast faith and their dedication to sacrifice. They do not ask of others what they are not willing to give of themselves. As a family and as guardians of those who call their Parish home, they are known as fair and just.

Concept & Community

1. Please provide the Discord handle of the intended Player Leader of this Faction that will serve to liaison with the Staff in the future:

- Dru is going to serve as our OOC Player Leader: Drucilla#1178

2. Please provide a summary as to the out-of-character purpose of the Faction, what sort of role you feel it will fill in-game (trading guild, PVP, PVM, etc.), and what sort of player character you intend to attract and/or support with the Faction in general.

- OOC we are just a group of rpers who are wanting to join the story and make a place for ourselves. We will have both militaristic characters who will probably involves themselves in PVM and PVP and we also have those who will be crafting. More than sell blades, witch hunters, or a trading company we want to bring the flavor of a proper Prelacy family to the table. They have the relative freedom to act as patrons and benefactors, providing a bit of old-world charm and class to an otherwise dismal and frightening world.
PS: there will be dinner parties.

Supplemental

1. If you have anything additional you would like to publicly share with us, to include in-character write ups, descriptions, organization structures or even custom logos and sigils, please provide them here:
