History

Lands End was formed by Kite in 2004 in Grand Forks, North Dakota, after learning the game playing at Starmount and Mists of the Dawn in St. Paul, MN. The original park had a rough start and fell into ruin when the small group of players graduated college and went their separate ways.

In 2007, Kite moved back to the area and revived the park with help from Jinn, Horune and Dallaran. The park has always been big on travelling, since we are in the middle of nowhere. Land's End alternates fighting between Grand Forks and Crookston, Minnesota, as both towns have active members. In 2010, Dallaran and Goomba moved away, both exploring building parks of their own in Fargo, ND and Bemidji, MN, tenatively called Land's End South and East.

Land's End was taken in by the Principality of Rivermoor in April, 2011


Our flurby back story is that we are a fort-town, established to protect against the undead lands to the north (which conveniently, and unknown at the time there's a park there called Niflheim). We've since grown into a city-state, and villages have begun popping up nearby to the south and east. A civil war is currently underway to conquor and tax those villages for our protection.


We were the first chapter in North Dakota. "We're taking over this place, see" TM.

Friends of the End

There are those that have done much for our park, in addition to being awesome to hang out with. It's sort of a Land's End fanclub, but the feeling is mutual.
