Navigating the Site
In light of new suggestions I've decided to create a page so that new players will have an easier time navigating the site.
There are 5 categories in which the important boards lie. General, Terre d'Ange, Night Court of Night Blooming Flowers, Foreign Lands, Guilds and Orders.
1.General has all the boards that deal with outside information and information about role playing. In this category you have 4 boards; New Players & General, Parliament, Out of Character, and Records of Citizenship.
2. The Terre d'Ange category has all the boards that relate to the actual nation of Terre d'Ange. There are 12 boards, 7 boards relate to each province- L'Agnace, Siovale, Kusheth, Camlach, Namarre, Azzalle and Eisande. These boards are simple to navigate. They are where you would do your posting, each thread you create should be posted under the city or province that you are currently in. For example if you were to post of your character visiting Azzalle, your post should be under the Azzalle board.
The remaining 5 boards are;
There are also sub-board with in the City of Elua (which consist of peer's Houses), the Palace (which are the Courcel and Trevalion guest quarters), L'Agnace (which is the Chateux de la Courcel-Home of Princess Alais and Prince Consort Duc Louis), Mont Nuit (which has board on specific taverns or locals for dinning and drinking) and the provinces that have visiting peer's estates and Sovereign Duchy's.
3. The third category is The Night Court, this again is simple to navigate. There are 13 boards in this category, one for each house in the Night Court, they are;
If your character is an adept of any of these houses your backstory's will be posted here, and assignations that reside in your adepts house will be posted there as well. Some of the houses also have sub boards more specified to whether you're posting an assignation or in you're room.
4. Our forth category is Foreign Lands, this one again is easy to navigate since most of our story lines and plots take place inside Terre d'Ange itself it will be rare that a player would have to post there.
5. Our final category is Guilds and Orders, here you will find 3 boards;
When posting simply click on the board that you desire to post under, and then click on new thread if you are creating a new story line for your character. If you wish to post a reply to another characters post clink on their thread and then click reply. There is also a quick reply feature that works great for short replies that you would have in dialog.
The New Player & General and Parliment boards should be checked at each log on, new things are added often so you'll need to check them regularly in order to stay on top of the current goings on of the site.
So, you should have no problems now when beginning your role playing experience here, if you still do, feel free to contact a staff member. If your not sure how to use the IM (Instant Message) feature, please refer to the following post.

1.General has all the boards that deal with outside information and information about role playing. In this category you have 4 boards; New Players & General, Parliament, Out of Character, and Records of Citizenship.
- New Player's board should have all your starting out information. The rules of the board, titles to choose from, and navigating the boards of the site. It also has just general info about Terre d'Ange that you can reference while role playing.
- Out of Character is where you can go to speak with other players about outside situations.
- Records of Citizenship is where each character posts their bios so that other players can know your backgrounds and what not.
- And Parliament is where you will find updates on whats going on with storylines as well as updates on characters.
2. The Terre d'Ange category has all the boards that relate to the actual nation of Terre d'Ange. There are 12 boards, 7 boards relate to each province- L'Agnace, Siovale, Kusheth, Camlach, Namarre, Azzalle and Eisande. These boards are simple to navigate.

For example if you were to post of your character visiting Azzalle, your post should be under the Azzalle board.
The remaining 5 boards are;
- Marsillikos -the major port city of Eisande
- Troyes-le-Mont- the walled fortress in Namarre
- The City of Elua- the major city of L'Agnace and home of the palace->The City of Elua also includes the Houses of Peers of the Realm
- The Palace- home of the Crown and its relatives, and finally
- Mont Nuit and the Night Court- this is the board that relates to Night's Doorstep and it is beneath the Night Court, any posts that are not directly related to a specific House or a peer's town home should be under this board.
There are also sub-board with in the City of Elua (which consist of peer's Houses), the Palace (which are the Courcel and Trevalion guest quarters), L'Agnace (which is the Chateux de la Courcel-Home of Princess Alais and Prince Consort Duc Louis), Mont Nuit (which has board on specific taverns or locals for dinning and drinking) and the provinces that have visiting peer's estates and Sovereign Duchy's.
3. The third category is The Night Court, this again is simple to navigate. There are 13 boards in this category, one for each house in the Night Court, they are;
- Assylum
- Balm
- Byrony
- Camellia
- Cereus- First of the Thirteen Houses
- Dahlia
- Eglantine
- Gentian
- Helitrope
- Jasmine
- Mandrake
- Orchis
and - Valerian
If your character is an adept of any of these houses your backstory's will be posted here, and assignations that reside in your adepts house will be posted there as well. Some of the houses also have sub boards more specified to whether you're posting an assignation or in you're room.
4. Our forth category is Foreign Lands, this one again is easy to navigate since most of our story lines and plots take place inside Terre d'Ange itself it will be rare that a player would have to post there.
5. Our final category is Guilds and Orders, here you will find 3 boards;
- The Guild of the Servants of Naamah- which has one post at the moment explaining guild rules for adepts and their patrons. This should be kept in mind as this board and post relate to agreements between adepts and patrons, rules of adepts conduct and forbidden actions that if perpetrated against can have dire consequences.
- Allies of Camlach- which hasn't yet been established since there are no players that are Allies of Camlach, and we haven't yet decided what role the Allies have in Terre d'Ange.
- Cassiline Brotherhood- any post that have to do with Cassilines (as in your character is a Cassiline) will go here. Even if you are posting about your character living in Siovale, if it relates to the Cassiline brotherhood it should go here.
When posting simply click on the board that you desire to post under, and then click on new thread if you are creating a new story line for your character. If you wish to post a reply to another characters post clink on their thread and then click reply. There is also a quick reply feature that works great for short replies that you would have in dialog.
