Larl Valley, Egypt
Welcome, traveler, to your new RP home... in the other 18th century, the one you never read about in books. Far removed from the drawing rooms and revolutions of Age of Enlightenment Europe and its colonies, there exists a sun-blasted sea of sand and scrag. Here, the adhan wafts on the air five times a day, calling the faithful to prayer. Packs of Mamluk guards keep order in the streets. Crocodiles bellow on the river banks. The great Nile teams with barges and river boats bustling through to nearby Cairo. On a clear day, a man might peer across the dunes to see the Great Pyramid’s peak.
This sleepy town between Cairo and Giza is designed for community and family para-RP set in a distant past. The focus is highly domestic. Bring your wife, your husband, your servants, your master, your children, your siblings, etc. for a taste of life in the palace, in the city, in the country, or in a nomad’s tent. Explore Saharan life on your own terms. Participate as any number of era-specific roles like harem slave, eunuch, koceck (‘male belly dancer’), mamluk (elite soldier), farmer, fisherman, trader, nomad, and more. Rentals are not necessary, but they are available at a variety of reasonable rates for anyone who wants to hang their hat (or prims) in this uniquely immersive environment. Some rentals are listed at ‘starter’ rates for newbies. Others are listed at discounted rates for those playing lead roles.
Come on out to the Grand Kick-Off Pary at 3PM SLT this Thursday. A DJ will be spinning tunes as we break in the new sim!
OOC Note:
This is a NEW sim, separate from the Barbary Coast, but I welcome participation from and integration with other 18th century sims as we create a wider world of RP in a wonderful era. I am still an admin at BC and no silly drama has occurred.
