The Ultimate Guide to the Duchal Court 2.0 - 4K - HD
Featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry Series
& Knuckles!

But yea, more seriously...

The following is a guide for players on how to approach Duchal Court meetings.

Additionally, thank you Ashenie for making this new map!

Who can participate?

Speakers
Speakers are those who will be representing in Court on behalf of all sorts of factions and cities/states. In order to be a Speaker, a player has to apply in this subforum. If you are not able to see the subforum that means you have no access, if you believe your group or organisation should be recognised by the Dukes and allowed to speak in Court, send a PM to the DM Team. The speakers will be given seats in the Court room. Additionally, speakers may nominate a second to accompany them.

General Public
The public is basically everyone else. The public will be observing from the balconies and will not be called to speak in Court. Everyone is admitted in the General Public, given that they are allowed to be in the city in the first place and they comply with the dress code.

What should I wear?
The dress code for Court is formal and follows decency. Some individual may be removed from the building if their clothing is deemed inappropriate for the event. Essentially, try to wear something decent if you wish to attend Court.

Additionally: Weapons and armors are NOT allowed during court sessions. Nobility and members of Eltan's security council are allowed to wear weapons and armors.

Oh wow this Palace is big, where do I go?

ENTRANCE HALL

As you enter the Palace you'll find yourself in the Entrance Hall, THE SPEAKERS MUST CHECK IN with Quincy (NPC by the entrance) at the entrance before proceeding. The general public can proceed to the Antechamber WITHOUT checking in with Quincy.

THE ANTECHAMBER

Alright, what now? The doors to the court room will be closed until the DMs start the session. The smaller doors on the side lead to the balconies, for the general public. The central door leads to the seats for the speakers. Only those who have registered in the speakers thread are allowed to move through the central door.

THE COURT ROOM
Hidden: show

The Court Room has been divided in four sections, the speakers are required to line up in front of the Grand Narlhelm and they will be announced one by one as well as their assigned section for seating (example: Lord Jimmy Bobbinson, representing The Chicken Brigade, sitting in among the Secular Organisations). The public will simply have access to the balconies to see the whole event if they wish to. As soon as everybody has been given a seat, the session will begin and the Narlhelm will announce who speaks.





THE CATEGORIES

The court room has been divided in four categories, the Dukes will decide which category order will be followed on each session. Here is the list:
  • Foreign Envoys (BLUE)
  • Nobility (RED)
  • Temples (PINK)
  • Secular Organisations (YELLOW)
The Narlhelm will assign the speakers to a category, if you have reason to appeal the choice, speak up after the announcement and the Dukes may allow a swap given valid reason.
