 == Information About This Land ==Plattekloof is a village formed by Meerkatjie and [[Player:Marlon|Marlon]](now [[Player:Haskell|Haskell]]), against the slopes of The Great South Mountain Road area on Independence.

The village itself is governed by the two founding members, and produces its own food, raw materials and other basics.

Left writ on deed. ==History, Background, Vision ==When Plattekloof was founded on the slippery, steep and dangerous side of the Great South Mountain Road, the vision was simple. A token amongst the trees, a shed for food and tool storage and later a house to live and sleep in. Over time, the luxuries were added slowly, Meerkatjie worked hard making many bricks and a lot of mortar. Paving was added, a stone house was added, walls erected and before we knew it, stable areas started forming. Plattekloof had to grow a little bit, but our neighbours (then Grace Manor) was preventing this. One fateful day, they disbanded, moved on and we took the chance. Later, much later, Kanenia joined us, a very home-bound, dedicated villager. He dumped some upkeep on the token, and took a piece of land that used to be Grace Manor, and turned the ruins into his thriving land. Now that his father and brother have joined him, they are constantly working hard on projects like the Inn and the new road joining the Great South Mountain road with the Freedom Docks and Inner Sea coast.0Even though all villagers of Plattekloof co-exist in harmony, we do not interact much. Busy days, busy projects, and different goals keep things going without us having to co-operate too much. Things drive themselves, and the settlement shows it. The rules are simple enough to aid everyone in achieving what they want without hassles and tie-downs. Every section is basically open to everyone, but we do not take or use other villagers resources or equipment. Trust is number one, and new villagers who break this trust soon find this out.

The current sections of open land are planned to become some more usable buildings, like warehouses and crafting areas, but much of it will remain natural. Plattekloof is, as always, strong and ever-growing, self-sufficient and our favourite homestead.  == History Town Crier ==More We have settlement alarms and general notices going [[https://twitter.com/snucudz | here, to come latera twitter feed]].

First and foremost, Plattekloof Our land is very private, and closedcurrently being used completely. HoweverUntil we can afford to buy more land, should a we regret that there is no more space for new premium playervillagers until further notice. == Local Laws ==We do not like imposing rules on villagers, need but some points are worth standing for. Apart from the different roles that a place villagers may belong to stay, we will be able there are also separate permissions. For instance you may not have access to assistpass fences, but you may have building access. Kanenia is building (at This does not mean that you are allowed to build anywhere, please check with the time of writing)mayor, an Inndeputy or Gentry about this.  Other than that, follow common sense and anyone willing etiquette to work or gather resources or perform minor tasks, will most likely be permitted ensure friendly relations. Feel free to stay do as you please in the Innyour assigned section/lot, but check in a private room with a Bed. These kinds others when doing things outside of villagers would be temporarythese areas, while finding their feet and gathering some skillsespecially:* Digging & Terraforming - this could damage or ruin someone elses plans. More permanent residence have not been discussed* Mining (check with the mine owner about the mine plan/direction etc, but talk to usavoid unstable mine shafts)* Picking up stuff, (particularly when it is from personal yards, as we are always expandingstorage containers, carts and requirements become too much to handleanimals)* Cutting down or harvesting 'organised' trees or farm fields. The owners might have their own intentions or goals. Rule 0: Enjoy your stay. Note though This means you, that as a temporary and unknown villagereveryone else gets the same privileges. The mayor or deputy or gentry won't interfere with your personal space either, unless it is necessary for daily upkeep in your absence (ie, unlocking a gate to free a dying animal etc) Please contact the Keeper if you would likely have very limited rights on property, until we all know each other a bit better.any questions or issues :-)
