As a general courtesy we address 'non-titled' people as Lord <name> or
Lady <name>. Title and name are always proper. (i.e. Duke Charles, Countess Mary). Check a visitor's ID if their screen name does not specify a title. If you are not sure of one's title Lord or Lady is proper to use. A lord or knight should bow as a sign of respect, a Lady should curtsy to those above her station. A low bow or deep curtsy should be reserved for your King and Queen.
We consider the Welcome page of Bladarion our place to hold court,however anywhere that the King and/or Queen are receiving guests should be considered court.We ask that you use these addresses of respect for residents and guests.
