welcome to knotwood.
Welcome to Knotwood, a medieval fantasy RPG. Two kingdoms who could not be more different from each other have joined by way of the political marriage between King Erikson Ravencrest and Queen Brynn Duskwither. Ravencrest, a near totalitarian society now must loosen its strict rules in order to fit into the more democratic kingdom of Duskwither. Despite this union, the lands of Knotwood are still restless. Not all are pleased with the joining of these two worlds and the people of both countries rest uneasy as rumor persists that Erikson wishes control over both lands completely. In a show of good faith, the two kingdoms agreed to create a joint Fellowship, a shining example of unity, trust and justice. The group consists of the most elite warriors of the kingdom an is led by members of both Royal houses. However, the rivalry between the two countries and their political views places hairline fractures in an otherwise sound group of young individuals. It can be agreed however that both sides want peace and both sides work diligently towards ensuring that. With the ever encroaching threats of rival factions, evil beasts and fantastical creatures of which the people of Knotwood share this land with one thing is assured in that adventure in this vast and amazing land is never lacking.

month and weather
Iunius, Year 784. There are 30 days in this month. It is currently late spring in the lands of both Duskwither and Ravencrest. Summer brings scorching heat to the mainlands and excruciatingly more to Emmersend.

Guide to Dynamic Time

Time works a little differently. We ask that players add a code at the top of their posts (as described in Rules). The reason for this? We work on a monthly rotation in a little something we like to call "Dynamic Time". Dynamic time means quite simply this: to not being stuck to one date, or one week or relying on the board's time stamp. This gives a greater control to both players and moderators in order to keep track of time or to forward time if we so wish it.

The month of which we are located in is relayed on the sidebar under "Month and Weather'. This indicates the amount of time you have to play around within that month to post. That means you can have a post going on on November 1 and a post going on November 22 at the same time. You could even post at different times in on the same day in different boards. For instance, you could be posting November 1, 10 AM in Knotwood Forest, but then as your character moves throughout the day, you can post at the same time November 1, 10 PM in Celestial City.

How is it that we keep track of all of this? Time trackers in Character Profiles.

Every 1st (REAL LIFE TIME), the administrator pushes the RPG one month forward. That shouldn't stop you however from completing your posts from previous months. Dynamic Time works backwards (and it could work in the future, we just don't allow it). I hope this explanation gives you, the player some insight on how we run time within the IC rpg.
