Fantastic. I will have to rethink my character slightly but overall it should be easily done. Being from a village in England myself I will use what I know. (Most people will know eachother by sight etc etc). Would it be alright if I had a former Knight of the Kingdom/Queendom of Elinor retire to the (as yet unamed) village and he would be the mayor (of sorts), it would be his son who would be the character I played as but just wanted to know how much I was allowed before I posted it all and then had to make a lot of changes. 

I wasnt planning on going over the top but having a militia unit in the village would be how my character would be trained in the ways I was working out.
