Who will be the Last One Standing?

Several down, several more to go.

I will see you all on the battlegrounds.

[osgoodatscience]

The gods are dangerous.

Osgood’s family taught him this since he was young. The gods are powerful, must be respected. They must be feared. Worshipped. Then they will bless you and your household, or at least leave you alone.

Then his father, the most End-fearing man in the town, was killed. Osgood’s mother recalls End, purple eyes blazing with strange fury and pure black body glowing with power, flying over their town, casting purple fire below him into the masses below. Buildings were burned, crops went up in flames, Osgood’s family’s flock of sheep were reduced to a fraction of their numbers. And Oz’ father lost his life, pleading with his god to cease his assault, to spare the town. Oz was four.

His perception changed. The gods were evil, creatures intending to cause pain and misery and only helping those who would later help them. They were dangerous because of the power people gave them. An higher power may exist, that he’ll allow, but these ‘gods’ were not Him.

Magic is just as dangerous. No set rules, unpredictable. Facilitating a system that punishes those unable to use such powers. Not to mention how dependent people became on the mages in the towns and praying to the gods for nearly everything. Since the age of eight, Oz had rejected magic, instead trying to find out what really caused the phenomena attributed to magic.

His research, an increasingly successful endeavor starting from age 13, was the subject of great controversy in his town. This caused his mother great shame, as the village blamed her upbringing for her son’s blasphemy. Upon learning this for the first time when he was 16, as the world began to crumble around them and prayers to the gods went unanswered, Oz declared to the town council that he would find the gods and discover the truth - that these deities were hardly more than users of magic, and that magic is merely the misunderstood effects of a higher power - science.

Huge Announcement

Note: 

Just like everything else in my life, I procrastinated typing this up. Also, this is pretty long so I will spread this out into multiple parts. Please read the entire announcement because it is EXTREMELY important. 

 Part one: 4Kingdoms Community

Obviously, its clear that very few people have been active recently. This is caused by many reasons and is not just a one time issue, nor is this something you should need to apologize for. Many of the factors involved are out of our control, but with the changes that will be detailed below, we hope the minimize the effects of these factors and have a constant stream of new players, old players, and a thriving community and RPG. 

 Part two: Future of 4Kingdoms thus far

 4Kingdoms will continue existing, so there is no need to worry about that, though I (Nova), Ghost, and Ken have been discussing ways in which to improve 4Kingdoms and bring the community back from the dead (Halloween pun, I am not sorry). We have been considering these changes, and changes like these for awhile now, but finally decided to take action about a week ago.

Part three: Plan of action p1; Calendar 

The first action we, and you, will be taking is a public calendar (link below). This calendar is linked to on the main wiki page and on my website. The top calendar is a public display. This will display all future 4Kingdoms events. The second part is a place for scheduling events. Click the day, time slot (2 hour slot), and enter the required info (last name optional, email required for confirmation, and info on the 4k event). This calendar will be used for scheduling ALL 4kingdoms events (aside from very small ones). Anybody and everybody in 4k can schedule an event. This way everyone knows of events ahead of time, and reserve timeslots for events (youll see why this is important in a bit). I will monitor the calendar for fake events, but please take full advantage of this!!! 

 Part three: Plan of action p2; Community

 As many have known, the 4kingdoms community is small, and dwindling in size over time. So, in attempts to keep 4kingdoms alive and successful, we ask that you help to advertise 4k to everyone. Post on tumblr, instagram, facebook, etc etc. Get as many people to join. This way when we lose someone, we don't lose 10% of the 4k population. Hopefully, once enough people are involved and active, the community continues to grow and thrive.

Part three: Plan of action p3; Story & Characters 

In attempts to help make the community bigger and better, the main style of 4kingdoms will be altered slightly. There will still be a major plotline, however, like many RPGs today, there will be many more side stories, missions, and characters. The main storyline can also be altered by players’ actions and characters. All players may create events (via the calendar) that can alter their character’s story. New players may create their own characters (and if you would like to, old players may kill of their characters if they get tired of them and don't enjoy playing anymore). A full set of guidelines on story, mission, and character creation will be on the wiki within this week. Players will now be allowed to create very customized characters, events for those characters, and even missions given by them for other characters. 

 Part three: Plan of action p4; What you need to do

 Along with the information above, there are some additional things you will need to do in order for these new changes to truly be successful. We must take full advantage of the wiki. Many of our members have already spent hours working on it. But we need all of you to pitch in. Create pages for characters, places, events, and missions you create. Edit pages that involve you or that you know canon information about. I cannot stress this enough, the more information on the wiki the better. The new players can quickly read up on there and catch up on what they missed, all players can better keep track of the lore and world of 4kingdoms, and allow players to simply delve into the world of 4k without worrying about missing important information because they could not get on the server.

Part four: What this really means

 Honestly, yes 4kingdoms is changing, but this is for the better. It may be hard to get used to, but we all think that this is the best course of action for 4k. Currently 4k is a static pole. It's very bland and unchanging with limited interaction. With these new changes both within the RPG itself and outside of it we hope that 4k will change into a fluid tree. This tree would be comprised of its main trunk (the main storyline) that has many, many roots, branches, and leaves coming off of it, allowing for both greater interaction with the story and the ability for players to truly make 4kingdoms their own. 4Kingdoms will still be what it always has been at its roots, a group of friends creating a world of their own. But now, not only will it be that, it will also be a living entity, constantly growing, changing, and welcoming new members. 

Part five: Links!!! 

4K wiki: http://4kingdomsrpg.wikia.com/wiki/4KingdomsRPG_Wiki New calendar page: http://www.cloudcraftgaming.com/4kingdoms/calendar Staff app page: http://www.cloudcraftgaming.com/cloudcraft-mc/staff-app/ 

 Part six: Extras

 If you are interested in moderating/admining the wiki (and not already a staff member of that position), a staff application form will be added to the staff app page that you may apply on within the coming days. If you are interested in recruiting new members (all members should do this but this is also an official position) officially through our social media apps and such, a staff application form will be added in coming days. And as always, if you have any questions/comments/concerns/etc about these changes please contact Nova, Ken, or Ghost ASAP.
