(IR) Preparations for the IR - Thread 5 (AND IT WILL BE THE LAST ONE!)

Preparations for the IR - Thread 5 (AND IT WILL BE THE LAST ONE!)

Edena, I merged William's thread with this one, which of course led to the result that the posts from that thread were added before your first post here, making, among other things, Lord Melkor the "thread starter." Heh. I know that you appreciate high strangeness (or else you wouldn't run the IR, right? ) but I felt that this should be brought in order. So I added this post into the thread, making you the thread originator again. This post, BTW, is just a copy of your post that started the "Message from Edena" thread, only with the content replaced with this - but since the only thing I needed from it was its date, it's serving its purpose just fine.
Another reason for me to add this post was so you could add anything you want to be first in the thread here: Feel free to edit this post into anything you like (e.g., remove what I wrote here and put whatever you need into it instead).

Edit: Also - don't worry; the posts you started this thread with are still here, of course - where chronological order places them.

- Darkness

Since Cairn Hills are near Greyhawk I claim beings of the Cairn Hills! Shade agents are working on subverting them.

For my Planar Claims:

Metallic Planar Dragons (Dragons from all Planes other than the Prime, good) PL see the Planar Arms Race

To the Planar Dragons I offer part of my personal fortune, 100,000 gold coins just to begin discussions. For every Dragon they send I offer 1,000 gold per size class or one magical item for their personal hoards. To maintain their loyalty I also vow that my sword be granted to Bahamuts personal treasures when I die. (I also have an ambition to eventually share an alliance between silver dragons and elves, very similar to the alliance between githyanki and red dragons.)

Nature Elementals (Planars from various Planes, all alignments but always on nature's side) PL see the Planar Arms Race

To the Nature Elementals I offer to annex 1/5 of all the forests I am in control of to their direct command if we win victory in this war, and of course I mention just how well kept the elves have made these forests for centuries. I point out that Vecna does not need nature in any way, and nor do many evil forces such as the demons. I also vow to protect these forests the same way I protect my people. I try to influence them to join me more out of mutual respect and necessity.

Celestials (Planars of Mount Celestia, lawful good) PL see the Planar Arms Race

I offer myself in death to the Celestial court... to become a lantern archon petitioner and hope to attain higher ranks. I offer my armies services against any extra planars that we share as enemies. I am willing to offer much gold if they want, but I doubt they need much mundane metal.

This may be subject to change, but if so I'll anounce it before the start of the IR.

creamsteak:

To avoid competing claims, I am dropping my claim to the celestials.

I have some NPC's that I would like to submit as my commanders of my forces in certain areas. They don't need a PL, as they are part of my armies already. They are lower than level 20, and most of them have levels in commoner classes. If you would rather I just skip the stats and leave the names that would be fine as well.

I need the Contested Claims resolved.

Edena_of_Neith

I'd like to claim...

I'd like to claim any sentient evil inhabitants of the northern Dramidj Ocean and western Icy Sea. It probably isn't much, but I just want to have some sea influence - The Solistarim has no problems with non-humans, as long as said non-humans stay the hell off the Flannae.

Me and Gnome are working on a deal I think.. I offered to give him the Southern half PL 2 and I take the Northern Half PL 3 since I claimed it first... when he gets on I think he will agree... is this ok?

Are you keeping the thread William made going... did you count my claims of the planars there?
