By contributing to KR, you are helping the community as a whole. Rewards for contributing to KR are given in Service Points, which may be converted into Build (to advance your character), or used to purchase items off of the service point menu.

Base Ratio

SP Assignment Awards

The below listed assignments will warrant a set amount of Service Points whether they be greater than or less than the above listed ratio amount.

NPCing for the Weekend

If you NPC for the weekend, you receive the following benenfits:

• Cost of entry into the game is free.
• You earn 500 SP for that event.
• You earn +2 Build for that event, on top of any additional build for RPing, Bought Build, or paying for your PC normally.

Note that some new players NPC all event for thier first year (or longer), and build up quite a load of Build and SP to convert when they make thier first PC.

It should also be noted that all Players, even NPCs, MUST carry Character Cards with them at all times.  This way, they can accumulate RP and Service points, and Build for when they PC.

Kitchen Work

(Note: Kitchen work may also include IG payment)

One of the main highlights of each KR event is the Feast that is served on Saturday Night.  In fact, the Feast is the reason that the gatherings take place In-Game - the Baron of Travance holds a monthly feast for all the people to come and share in, as a gift to the community.

Preparing the feast is not an easy task - we often have over 100 players at an event, and getting a hot meal to all of them while trying to play the game and have fun is an adventure in itself!  Because of this, we ask that players take turns helping the Kitchen Staff, or even become Kitchen Staff for a weekend, and pitch in for the KR community as a whole.

Because we know it's a sacrifice to give up your playing time in the Kitchen, Service Points are offered for helping out, either as Main Staff, Help Staff, or other work as follows:

• Kitchen Staff: 500 Service Points, and your NPC duty for the weekend is waived.  This MUST be approved by the Director prior to the Game!

• Kitchen Help: 100 Service Points for an hour's time helping to prepare the Feast (cutting vegetables, etc.)

• Serving Help: 200 Service Points for helping serve the Feast.

• Feast Cleanup: 300 Service Points for an hour's time helping with cleanup and washing dishes after the feast.

• General Cleanup: 100 Service Points for an hour's time washing dishes in The Inn.

• Bar Wenching: 100 Service Points and any In-Game tips for 4 hours of Bar Wenching.

Kitchen Staff for each weekend will be chosen by the Director, and will have the ability to sign off on SP for other Help, Cleanup, and Bar Wenching.  Other awards will be at the discretion of the Kitchen Staff - you must fulfill the full time and obligation to be eligible for the SP award.

Also, if you are going to staff the Kitchen, please become familiar with the Kitchen Rules for the game.

General Staff Work

These people must write these amounts on their card each month. The director will then verify the amounts before adding them.

• Running Main Weekend Plot: 2000 SP + 4 Build / per event (Max 2 people in charge)
• Monster Marshal: 500 SP / per event

Needed Donations

Knight Realms asks that plays help the game run by donating materials, services, or other help to make the game run smoother and to make it more enjoyable for everyone. There are certain things that are in more need than others, and the Staff would be especially grateful if some were donated.

The following list of items is what Knight Realms needs on a consistent basis. Service Points will be awarded for each item - the amount varies on the quality of donation and need of item(s).

Quick and easy items that we always could use

• Spell Packets (500 SP for 100 Tied Packets, 1,000 SP for 100 sewn packets)
• Headbands (White & Blue, Yellow & Red)
• Tiki-Torch Fuel
• Powdered Drink Mixes
• Boffer claws (Small Weapon & 1-Handed sizes, in pairs)
• Inexpensive, generic latex weapons for NPC use
• Glowsticks (Bulk quantities of the larger kinds, for lighting up areas at night)

Quality versus Quantity

We have gotten to the point where the need for quality items far outweigh the need for massive quantity. This holds especially true when dealing with make-up and masks. If you have the choice of buying and donating twenty tubes of cream make up from K-mart at a dollar a piece or four bottles of liquid make-up from a make-up store for 5 dollars a piece, than please choose quality over quantity. Chances are we would put those twenty tubes of cream make up in a box in storage and never see them again, where as those four bottles of liquid make up we would put to great use.
