King Simulator 2013 is a community roleplaying game administered by WHAM on the AGS forums. The following is a glossary of people, places and things to help us all keep track of who's who and what's what.

WHAM started the game on November the 6th 2013. You can read it all in the Thread on the AGS Forums


King

Name Picture Description
King of Grimdark King of Grimdark The player character -us! Apparently he is the twin brother to the late evil king, whom he overthrew in a revolution. He likes to party hard until the treasury is depleted, so needs careful watching when he gets drunk or gets his purse out. He is single, and doesn't appear to have an actual name.

Crown Servants

Name Picture Description
Jester Jester Our royal chief minister, grand vizier, chief advisor and most trusted companion. He's also pretty weird and has a kind of shifty/sinister look to him. But, heh! We're a trusting sort of monarch, so it's all good (for now....).
Lancelot Sir Lancelot A "straight and true" knight who serves us loyally, with his 20 men, for the price of 5 gold coins per year. He will serve us so long as our rule is just and fair.

Each knight can best any lowlier knight in single combat with ease.

Construed of the Grimm Family Construed of the Builder's Guild Head of the builder's guild. He's the go to guy if we want to build anything.
Dennis of the Frostsea Family Dennis of the Trader's Guild Head of the trader's guild, although they do not appear to be currently trading with anyone, nor do they apparently have any recollection of where places are or what we used to trade with them....
Mandarb Mandarb of the Guild of Graftsmen Head of the craftsmen guild. Contact him if you ever need something specific or special produced.
Cat Cat the Farmer Representative Representative of the farmers. She speaks in a colloquial kind of down-home manner, and is not much for palace protocol.

Other People

Name Picture Description
Shadowy Traveller Shadowy Traveller & Perveyor of Prophesy A mysterious figure who has prophesized that bad times are a-comin'. Specifically: "Before long your kingdom will be beset by dangers untold, and it will be your task to ensure your people are ready." These dangers will come from every direction (east, west, above, below), but remain as yet unnamed. HOWEVER, on the fourth day of our rule an object will come into our possession "which will grant you the assistance of myself and others like me. Be wise and use it well, unlike the one who reigned over this land before you, for wasting such power might see your reign come to end sooner than you think."

(WHAM, POST #84)

Jib Ali-Gharzab of the Guaravana Family Merchant of the South A merchant from the south who offers ever-changing wares for sale, and is open to buying stuff from us. His expertise is negotiating the "shifting roads....past the sand-pits, deadly snakes and vicious scoprions as well as the wily naga-people who so love to ambush travellers" between the midlands (presumably Grimdark) and the southlands, of which the Emirate of Turbanistan is the pre-eminent polity.
Kevin of Axemount Inexperienced Knight An inexperienced knight who offers his services, and those of his 15 inexperienced and young knights. Post #241

Our last encounter with Kevin he called us a usurper and threatened that we better hope to not meet again. Post #270

Rorik, son of Rorik Warrior of the North A warrior from the frozen lands in the north on a mission who seeks shelter in our castle. Post #301

We grant his wish and in return he tells us about his country. Post #318

Places

Name Map Description
Grimdark Map of Grimdark Our Kingdom. Apparently we forget what's out there, but it is "a nation of a few thousand people, which consists of the castle, surrounding town and some smaller villages and farmsteads outside of the town walls. There are no minor lords or provinces under the king (yet)"

(WHAM, POST #146)

Turbanistan [[Image:|Map of Turbanistan]] "Kingdom of immeasurable wealth and glory. Enchanted sandstone walls adorned with gold and gemstone protect the grand walled nation of the Grand Emir’s Turbanistan. The people there are dark of skin and hair, and strong, hardy and wise as anyone can claim. Their lands are known for precious traded goods and especially the creations of the Grand Emir’s Guild of Alchemists, who provide the Emir and his armies anything from healing poultices to poisons to coat arrows to potions...."

(WHAM, POST #156)

Northlands [[Image:|Map of Northlands]] "My people are known by outsiders as 'the men of winter' and we live most of our lives in solitude, hunting the frozen wastes for beast and fish. The tribes often go to battle with one another, be it for cattle, prestige or rights to marry another's daughter, and so those who survive these battles and the cold are all hardy warriors. No other race of men exists in this world who can do battle in the cold winter as well as we do."

(WHAM, POST #318)

Things

Name Picture Description
Key The Key in the Jester's Hand Perhaps a magic key, currently in the possession of the Jester. Apparently it used to unlock a dungeon with a princess in it, and now unlocks a chest with a potion that would keep her "refreshed", but the chest has been lost so.... what's the key for, again?

(WHAM, POST 16)

Ornamental Telescope The Ornamental Telescope in the Jester's Hand A telescope obtained from Baron of the forkbeaks as a token of kindness and friendship. It is not a functional instrument but encrusted with four valuable gemstones.

(WHAM, POST 322)

Livestock

Name Picture Description
Annabelle Annabelle the Cow The highest-prize cow of a peasant village, gift of goodwill from some DIRTY PEASANTS. Annabelle currently resides in the unkempt castle garden.
