Lair of the Dragon Regional Message Board

I used to have a Scratch account, and I had a little roleplay studio named ‘Kingdom of the Corvids’. I recently made the decision to port it to NS, but now I’m starting to realise that it may be a bit too similar to the Lair. Although, that’s mainly because the Lair was partly what made me decide so.
I’m wondering, do I need to ask your permission to form such a region? Should I form it, build it, and then see to your consent?
I sincerely await your reply,
-The Malalonian Flora-Haven of Cisornia

Hello!
You are more than welcome to make such a region - while its not a requirement as far as NS is concerned, I do greatly appreciate you poking us to ask, and give you my full blessings. My only request is that your Kingdom of Corvids reach out and be our embassy partner!

Thank you! I shall start the region-building tomorrow, via The Corvid King.

If there is any help you need, do let me know.

Like I said, I’ll make the region. I’ll just lay here for a day or so while I start preparing.

» The Goal of The Lair: Money, Fame, and Friends «

Lair of the Dragon has a few things we focus on as a region, and as the title above says, it can be summed up as Money, Fame, and Friends.

> Money - There are several stats that we emphasize in-game, namely the Economy, Average Income, and Economic Output stats, alongside the cards minigame stat of International Artwork. We also have a little economy thing Linkin our Discord where gold coins are given to folks who complete various quests or do things for the region.

> Fame - Raiding and Diplomacy are what gets us fame. Raiding is part of the NationStates military gameplay, and there is a lot of information there that can't be covered in a beginner's guide, but the short of it is taking over regions using the World Assembly Delegacy to either post our tag, or to take the region for ourselves. Diplomacy is generally any interaction with another region in NationStates, whether it be to improve or worsen relations. There are some regions that we will almost always be antagonistic towards, but class and good taste are key to being a good villain.

> Friends - The last, and arguably most important, part of what Lair of the Dragon is about is Friends! Through the avenues of Roleplay in our discord Roleplay Tomes, hosting Cultural Events, sharing cool Dragon Media, or getting new people into the region and discord, we gain the most valuable treasure of all; Friendship!


» How to Achieve the Goals «

> How to achieve these goals - In order to achieve these goals, I've made some things to encourage doing things. The Paths are rewards for players doing things. The Wealth Path is reward titles for people doing things to get money, and the Prestige Path is recognition for raiding skills and prowess. The Clans are a way to generate competition, where I can poke all the people in the clans and give them a goal to reach.

There is no 'winning' or 'end state'. This website is literally older than MySpace and Facebook. However, you can absolutely set goals for yourself, and strive to achieve them. Examples include:
  • Have a lot of high stats in an area.

  • Collect NS Cards.

  • Roleplay.

  • Build a region/community.

  • Legislate in the World Assembly.

  • Lead an NS Military in raiding, defending, or both.

  • Write interesting issues.

  • Others that exist but I'm not coherent enough to write out.

For all those brand new to NationStates, there is a wonderful a guide written that will get you all the information you need to fly far into the realm of NationStates.

Too Long, Didn't Read

My friend, if you've come straight here to get a summary, here it is:
NationStates involves a lot of reading. Like, a lot. If that ain't your speed, this forum-based web game ain't gonna be for you.

Hello! I am running a nomadic nation seeking to visit furry- and scaly-friendly places. I settled in Concord for a while, but now I am moving on again, arriving here. I seek to minimize authoritarianism within my own nation while otherwise pursuing good values. I, the player, am dragonkin! However, I am not terribly comfortable sharing my actual identity on Nationstates. I have left my WA nation in Concord for now (that's Therimenjas), but it is also potentially nomadic.

Welcome friend! We are a very Furry- and Scaly-friendly place, and it is best practice to not share actual identities! As long as you are kind and follow our rules, it don't matter who's behind the screen. If you're interested in learning more about The Lair, our discord has a lot of our region's happenings!
