You can also use the FULL link to the entire mod. This campaign shall be taking place in Hammerfell and High Rock, during so called Ranser's War.
It will be moderated by Gaming Staff and only Newbloods may partake. A Newblood is somebody who has just recently joined us, having no experience in Hotseating. If you are new and wish to challenge yourself for the chance at the reward then feel free to sign up; but keep in mind that we'd like to avoid replacements so if you plan to vanish off the face of the planet or are unable to make the 24 hour turns, we'd appreciate if you'd refrain from requesting a position here. Rewards of a Signature, a wooden sword medal (1st level of gaming winner medal) and Reputation (15 rep) will be given to the victor.
Scenario Description
In the year 2E 563, after the beginning of the second Wayrest dynasty, the young King Emeric Cumberland began a search for his bride. His first choice was Rayelle, daughter of King Ranser of Sharnhelm, but before the marriage contracts were wrought, Emeric instead married Maraya, the Redguard princess of Sentinel. This stunned courtiers across the land, and prompted bards to sing songs of Maraya's bewitching beauty. However, strategists saw the move as strengthening the trade between High Rock and Sentinel. After Emeric's Wedding in 566, High Rock readied itself for a golden age of commerce. Three moons later, it was bracing for a bloody civil war.
Rivenspire was known as the backwater of High Rock. Ranser was known as a "surly hillsman", a child of the north, known for his bitter temper and brutal rule. Emeric's slight was too much for him to bear.
With an army of Northern Tamriel's surliest mercenaries and a host of his own people, he descended from the mountains to cut a bloody swath to the Iliac Bay. Emeric was caught unprepared. It was only the spirited defense of his Lion Guard that saved Wayrest from being razed to the ground. Ranser had hoped for a swift victory. Instead, he was forced into a protracted siege.
The long siege dragged on into spring, both sides of conflict searching for allies... Which side shall you join?
