About the Grove of Dendronia
Camp Concept (IC)
Long ago, when their first world fell to silence, the Crow (Velhranea) and the Fox (Kithavarion) tore a path through the folds of night and stumbled into Mythodea. Here they found mortals scattered, short-lived, fragile—and precious.
To give those lives shelter, they seeded a second Story Tree. Its roots are fed by memory, by tales, by the courage of those who dare to be remembered. Around it, the Grove of Dendronia was founded: not a kingdom of crowns, but a refuge where strength shields the weak, and stories are given form so they will not vanish.
Doctrine of the Grove:
Strength shelters (Solar Throne)
Structure stewards (Lunar Throne)
Every life carries a story worth keeping
Out-of-Time Description (OOC)
Dendronia is a player camp at ConQuest of Mythodea. It’s run by a mix of camp admins, build crew, and story leads who keep things flowing smoothly before, during, and after the event.
The camp is open to both new and veteran players.
Our premise provides IC grounding (you’re here because the Grove took you in, or you seek its rewards/protection).
OOC, the camp’s purpose is to provide:
A safe and well-organized physical camp.
A consistent style & atmosphere.
A culture where players can create story together without pressure.
How the Camp Works
Out-Of-Character
Solar Throne (Kieran): Guardian, tactician, strength that shelters. Leads in defense, battlefield, and martial matters.
Lunar Throne (Vela): Steward of meaning, keeper of the Story Tree, strength in ritual and memory.
Masters & Seneschals: Lead specialized domains (ritual, warband, craft, lore, diplomacy). Each Master governs an area; Seneschals ensure continuity and support.
Leadership
In-Character
Camp Admins: Handle logistics, scheduling, dues, and camp coordination (see above).
Build Crew: Set up and strike down physical camp.
Shift Leads: Oversee kitchen, watch, ritual support, waste, water.
Safety Contacts: First escalation point for OOC conflicts or concerns.
Shifts & Responsibilities
Every member contributes to keeping the Grove alive. Shifts are scheduled pre-event and posted in camp.
Kitchen: Help prepare meals / clean up shared cooking space.
Watch: Keep fire, camp, and atmosphere safe (light IC roleplay encouraged).
Ritual Setup: Assist in preparing ritual spaces, props, lighting.
Strike-Down: Aid in tearing down & packing camp at end of event
Groups in Dendronia
Groups Inside the Camp
Players may organize into IC guilds, circles, or companies (e.g., a crafting circle, a warrior band, a scribe’s order).
These groups add flavor and create play for others.
To found one:
Propose it to the Thrones IC.
Inform the OOC camp admins (so it’s logged and supported).
