¯¯`ˆ- Land Claims --


What follows is a list of lands and areas that we lay claim to.

- Daemonheim
- The Wilderness


This clan looks really cool, really really cool. Apart from the above... They're both very extreme places to lay claim to, obviously Daemonheim less extreme than
the entirety of the wilderness
.

You don't have to lay claim to the wilderness if you want to roleplay there, or say you do. Likewise, if you landscale Daemonheim to act as the wilderness, you don't need to claim it.

For a crime group, and for any group as far as the Wilderness is concerned, claiming both the Wilderness ad Daemonheim isn't a good idea.

But! Really really cool clan idea, I dig.

I really dig this thread, it's super cool to see a crime thing that's so well thought out and put together. That said, I do see a glaring problem with it - one that I think is enough to put me, and I'm sure a lot of others, off. So I figured I'd open dialogue about it because I think it's important to address and get clarification on.

So, I figure I'll just go ahead and split this into two different 'rants' and address each one accordingly.

Daemonheim:

Daemonheim is one of the most lore-rich places on Runescape, detailing specifically the descent into madness of Bilrach as he dug deep into the grounds of the Wilderness because he felt 'Zamorak's presence' below the earth. Left in his halls are Zamorakian monsters he'd left strewn, the Forgotten Fremennik adventurers who were driven mad by the halls and what it contained, a Dragonkin scientist who killed everyone on his particular floor and turned it into his private lab, and so many more hideous things. And, outside, is a sizable settlement of Fremennik who fancy themselves brave warriors who delve deep into Daemonheim for the challenge, thrill, rewards, et cetera. Not to mention the Elves now, after one of the leaders of the clans took a special interest in the herbs that can only be found within the halls.

So...how did your crime syndicate kick them out? Are you claiming that they have more man-power than the Elves and the Fremennik? And on a very simple thematic level, it's a great disservice to the lore offered by Jagex to shove Bilrach, the Zamorakians, the Fremennik, and the Elves under the rug and say "Yeah my crime syndicate owns this now". It doesn't make sense practically or thematically to claim Daemonheim - it's like a Zamorakian group saying "Yeah we just own Falador nbd". I'd honestly suggest somewhere else.

DISCLAIMER: I need some clarification on the Wilderness part. Now, if you're claiming you have a base IN the Wilderness, then that makes total sense, and you should disregard the rant below.

If you are, indeed, claiming that you own the ENTIRETY of the Wilderness:


What? No. No, what? Stop. Stop that.

That's actually non-sensical. I want to be cordial here, but I can't think of a word for that besides "ridiculous". That's like someone just casually saying "Yeah, I own hell". You are claiming a place without resource to sustain you, without people to respect your claim. You are apparently asserting yourself over the cannibal tribes mentioned in the novels, dragons, demons, vitriolic revenants, warbands, etc.

There's actually no way. You couldn't claim that, you couldn't dream to assert that you claim that, and you couldn't hope to enforce your claim. Are you saying you have enough man power in a crime syndicate to patrol the entire wilderness? And fight everything there? What? No stopit stop. This one is genuinely baffling to me*

**;dr Claiming Daemonheim poops on really cool lore and doesn't really make sense, claiming the Wilderness absolutely 100% doesn't make a lick of sense absolutely what.


That said, on a positive note, I like everything else! S'pretty neat'o burrito. I hope you guys have a good time (and also stop claiming that stuff)

Thanks for bringing this to my attention, guys! I have discussed this extensively with my partners who are running this venture with me, and we made sure that there were no existing land claims in both places to ensure that there were not any conflicts.

That being said, this clan being an organization rather than a political entity does not actually have formal claim to these areas. Rather, we carry out so much of our operations in both of these regions that we may feel the need to investigate and perhaps defend ourselves if someone enters without our knowledge (in the case of certain parts of the Wilderness) or strays too close to us. In the Wilderness in particular, we see any outsiders who enter certain areas (especially near our base, manufactory, and resource collection areas) as potential threats to our operations. As for Daemonheim, it's just an area we have a very constant presence at. We figured that since the traditional way of announcing that one has control over or presence in a region is simply claiming land, we'd just use those terms. But given your input I think it's more appropriate to put them under the "Areas of Operation" section. Thanks again! :)

Unfortunately (because we all have at least one person we'd love to put on it) blacklists are not allowed to be mentioned in threads on the forum, at least not in the manner in which you have done so.


An enemy list naming individual characters is okay, though. So long as there is adequate I.C reason accompanying that. If this list would lead to the complete exclusion of said character through any means, objective proof (such as screenshots) that they ****** up I.C'ly is a good thing to have in case the player of said character attempts to raise a stink over the exclusion. Claiming some sort of veiled blacklist. I hope that makes sense.


Also...tell me about these teleport beacons. Sounds useful...
