EDIT: The application period for this game is now closed! I had a lot of great apps, so please don't be discouraged if you weren't selected, I simply had more players apply than I could take on. I hope to play with you next time!

You have recently been knighted, and sent to a distant land with a Company of fellow knights where you are to uphold your Oaths:

Seek the Myths
Honor the Seers
Protect the Realm

The Grasp is just that — humanity's most ambitious grasp into the world beyond the Continent. The small island is split between the verdant hold of Springwatch and the sun-scorched lands controlled by Refugio. Everything else is wilderness, full of ancient ruins, meager dwellings, and the whispers of the Myths.

You will seek glory in this realm, serve its rulers, its people, and bear witness to — or perhaps, intervene in — the Myths as they play out across the land.

Cling to your Oaths.

I am looking for 3-4 Knights for what I hope to be a relatively short game of Mythic Bastionland.

Mythic Bastionland is a hex-crawl game where you travel the realm and seek glory by way of encountering and interacting with strange events — called Myths — that play out over the course of your journey.

In the meantime, you will take on Knightly tasks as you encounter people on the road or in the realm's centers of power.

Some things prospective players should know before they sign up:

1. Everyone plays a Knight. There are 72 Knights in the game, and you will roll to see which Knight you play. Most aspects of your personality will be yours to decide, but there is no pick and choose character creation like in DND.
2. A typical realm in Mythic Bastionland is based on a 12x12 hex map with 6 Myths to encounter. I am using a 9x9 map with only 3 myths as I am hoping to keep the game relatively short.
3. This will be my first time running the game. Please be willing to endure my newbie growing pains as we play.
4. Please include the word "Galahad" somewhere in your application to confirm you've read the instructions.
5. I'd like to keep to a post rate of generally once per day.
6. I am happy to teach the game to new players, but I also expect players to read the rules I've included in the server to cut down on back-and-forth during the game.
7. DO NOT USE AI to fill out your application!

Hey all hoping for some help here.

Was standing near a road across from where the Roman Forum/Palatine Hill is located in Rome. An old looking building was undergoing renovations and had the symbol included in the photo on the side.

I assume it's either shriner related or maybe tied to some fire brigade, but I'm not sure. Any help?
