[Rynmere] Q&A Thread

Gonna post this in response to the military ranks - so glad we have quantifiable requirements btw, looks great!

Can the Duke/Duchess of a Duchy appoint their own General? Like - can they determine their own military hierarchy, or does it fall in line with the national requirements?

I know Lords in high positions tend to have a council - usually a Marshal, Treasurer, Chancellor/Diplomat, Spymaster, Theologian, etc. Are Dukes/Duchesses in Rynmere free to appoint these positions in their Duchy as long as it's approved as a Job?

1. Anyone who reaches the national requirements (and is a part of the Iron Hand) can be appointed by them.

2. If you want to pay for those kinds of positions to be filled, yes.

Was just reading up on the domain update, and wondered: is the Scar in the Sky a fracture?

It's a whole between the living world and Emea (but no one knows this) and it is how Rynmere (the original jacadon and pet of the immortals) came into this world.

[Rynmere] Q&A Thread


So is there any guide anywhere about which buildings are in which part of the city? As far as I can tell it doesn't say in their link descriptions, or at least not for all of them. I know obviously the castle, monastery, etc. are in the third tier, but I'm a little confused about the rest. In the city lore link (under Andaris), it says loosely that first tier is businesses and (defensive) military, second tier is housing and the university.

But in the housing link, it sort of contradicts that: midtown is housing, yes, but it is more pricey housing and is home to most of the city's warriors, the marketplace, and many of the city's businesses. Lowtown is pretty much just the barracks, stables, and slums, so the poor
--and nonresidents-- probably live in there. I'm assuming that the housing link is the correct one, because it served as an update.

So if you could clear it up, are most businesses in lowtown or midtown? What about the hotels (probably in lowtown)?

If there's not already a directory, then I'll put a list below (the first list is by assumed area/district, the second is alphabetical). The ones that are bolded, italicized, and *'d are the ones whose locations I know for certain (either because it said in their write-ups or is very obvious, like the Docks being outside the city). Everything else is guesswork and those that aren't colored are completely uncertain to me. I'd like if we could verify everything's locations so I know where stuff is.

(red = lowtown,
blue = midtown,
purple = the Crown,
green = outside the city,
bold-italics = known location)

BY AREA--
LOWTOWN
The Blacksmith's Arms (underground tavern) = lowtown
The House of Roses (brothel) = lowtown
Farrier = lowtown
Fighting Pits = lowtown
Stables = lowtown*
Warrick's Watch (tree) = lowtown (in front of the gates)*

MIDTOWN
The Bread Basket (bakery) = midtown
Barbershop = midtown
Blacksmith = midtown
Bookstore = midtown
Butcher Shop = midtown
Distillery = midtown
Ericor's Excellence (clothing) = midtown
Fortune Telling = midtown
Andaris Gazette = midtown*
Herbal Shop = midtown
Marketplace = midtown*
Potions and Tonics = midtown
Rynmere Theatre = midtown*
Rynmere University = midtown*
Ye Olde Inn = midtown*

Community Notices = midtown (outside Ye Olde Inn)*

THE CROWN
Andaris Gala and Winery = the Crown*
House Andaris = the Crown
Imperial Court (castle) = the Crown*
Monastery = the Crown*

OUTSIDE THE CITY
The Docks = outside the city, on the coast*
The Traveling Dragon by Medel and Co. (circus) = outside the city*
Andaris Farms = outside the city*
Graveyard = outside the city*
Lumber Mill = outside the city
Shipyard = outside the city, on the coast (the Docks)*
Stockyard = outside of the city, on the coast (the Docks)*
Andaris Vineyard = outside the city (to the west)*

UNCERTAIN
Rynmere Bank = probably midtown, maybe the Crown?
Bathhouse = probably midtown?
Andaris Dungeons = maybe a part of the castle in the Crown?
Courthouse = probably midtown, maybe the Crown?
Fighting Arena (training grounds and tournaments, general public) = lowtown, or outside the city as a separate stadium?
Housing Office = probably lowtown?
Infirmary = probably midtown?
Library = midtown, or the Crown?
Kash'deel Funerary Services (morgue-- CLOSED until further notice) = probably midtown, maybe the Crown?
School = probably midtown?
Skye Verath Lodge (Skyrider beast sanctuary and training grounds) = probably outside the city?
Slave Auctions = probably midtown, maybe lowtown, maybe the Docks?
Training Grounds (Iron Hand) = probably midtown, maybe lowtown?

OTHER
Bard's Corners = throughout the city*

I don't know if this is okay here or if it belongs somewhere else but are the gates still closed at the beginning of the season (due to the shadow beasts)? If so, when-abouts do you think they would be reopened? And do you think people would be able to get in and out through the big hole in the outer wall that the Qe'Dreki burned (since it's not mostly fixed until the 85th)?

I think you guys might question my sanity after I ask this, but how does one decent citizen go about obtaining smuggled Jacadon heart metal? Keep in my that this decent citizen has had interaction with smugglers that have dealt with Jacadon hearts in the past. Thank you in advance.
