Things to stick in it:
 
* You aren't a servant/slave of the True Fae.
 
* You will not sell changelings or mortals to the Fae. (Or hobgoblins, who often deal with the Fae. Or other changelings, who could be loyalists. Or mortals, who could be under dream-control by the Fae. Let's just say no selling people to anyone at all to be super-safe.)

History

Fate's Harvest is a relatively new Freehold, founded in late Spring of 2015 by a group of migrants from Maine and Massachusetts. Young though it is, it is an active, and actively expanding community, centered around the small mountain town of Tamarack Falls, Vermont.

The valley of the River Tam, by all reports absent any signs of recent Changeling activity, seemed almost too good to be true.

They should have known better than to trust Fate to be kind.

Not long after they had established themselves and begun to lay claim to resources in the area, the first trickles of refugees began to crawl out of the woodwork, all holding slivers of a greater story: why was the valley so ripe for the taking?

As of Autumn 2016, no diplomatic contact with other local Freeholds has been made. See the Freehold Timeline for major actions and decisions to date. This timeline is updated by each ruling monarch as the season progresses, to ensure that all players have access to the history involved.


Membership

Members of the Freehold keep an eye out for new fae faces. It's just common sense. In a place with this much activity, who knows who's a Loyalist and who isn't?

If you're not part of the Freehold, you WILL be treated with suspicion and excluded from many gatherings. The more paranoid and socially inept members may even try to threaten your character into compliance (with OOC permission, people -- see the Policies page for how little staff likes real bullying).

No one coming out of CharGen is considered to be in the Freehold yet. Even if you are playing a local Changeling/Fae-touched, for whatever reason, you haven't chosen to join.

Thankfully, joining the group is easy: make the pledge, don't die.

Who Can Join

  • Changelings
  • Fae-touched

Ensorcelled and Enchanted may be accepted with modified pledges to reflect their mortal status.

Attitude Toward New Changelings

It's dangerous to trust too easily, but it's also dangerous to leave the newly-returned on their own, without guidance and support. Who knows what they'll end up turning to?

The general attitude, given the Freehold's focus on knowledge, is to educate the newcomer on the ways of the world, trade favor for favor, and learn everything they can about the newcomer's time in Arcadia, short of interrogation. After all, if an angry Keeper will be coming after his lost toy with hordes of beasts in tow, it behoves said lost toy to let the Freehold know of the threat.

Freehold Pledge

I pledge my time, my talents and my fealty to the Freehold of Fate's Harvest.

I swear that I no longer serve the Fae of Arcadia, nor will I while this pledge still stands; that I will neither sell Changelings nor humans; that I will obey the principles and bylaws of the Fate's Harvest Freehold as ratified by Monarch and Council.

Freehold Organizations

The following are recognized subgroups within the Freehold.

Freehold Positions

  • Crown - Influence 5 - Wyrd-chosen leader of the freehold. Typically rules for one season before the Wyrd chooses a new leader.
  • Council - Influence 4 - Representatives of each court who advise the Crown. Many councillors are former crowns.
  • Group Leaders - Influence 4 - Elected leaders of the freehold organizations listed above. See the group pages linked above for more information.
  • Court Representatives - Influence 3 - Courtiers appointed to perform specific roles within the freehold. See the Court pages for positions.
  • Active & Involved - Influence 2 - Freehold members involved in one (or more) of the freehold organizations listed above.
  • Pledged Members - Influence 1 - The bulk of the freehold, members who have pledged, but who have not received any official titles or responsibilities.
  • Pledged Mortals - Influence 0 - Ensorcelled and enchanted mortals who have pledged to the freehold, often under a specific changeling's oversight.

Note: It is staff's goal to have all freehold positions occupied by PCs. If a position is currently held by an NPC, consider it up for grabs and feel free to start steering your story toward its acquisition. All Influence prerequisites must still be met. Leadership positions (Influence 4 and 5) require a vote.

Freehold Resources

Any IC resources for the Freehold, boards they can use, that kind of thing.

Holdings

Which builds does the freehold claim as affiliated with it? What are its hollows?

Stoneheart

The primary Hollow of the Freehold. It is a gathering place/training area located on the Loop trod. Grid: H06
