(4th IR) What does your character write?

Not open for further replies.
I'll write up pamflets and flyers spreading word about the end of the world as everyone knows it. A terrible unnamed doom is hanging over everyones head and nothing shall be able to stop it. The turning of the tide is approaching and forces whos very existance and birthright are to rule are reawakened.

The end is near for all unbelievers for soon all heretics shall finds themselves slain, enslaved or eaten. Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Halflings, Gnomes, Orcs, Goblins and many many other races shall soon be extinct or enslaved save those who believe and for them great times and power await.

Doom is comming and it shall find you all.

OOC-I can't believe you are doing this again! Just remember to sleep and to take breaks this time. I'm immensely pleased you are feeling well enough to undertake this though, and I say thank you for the effort.
 

Character Introduction

A dark and quiet room...

The silence is only broken by the scratching noises of a poet's quill...

And the occasional cackling laughter issuing from a lady's mouth...


This is Mirriam Dhul, from a young age she started to write-about nature, about people, about life. A twinkling eye, ready to capture anything in its sight and a ready hand to transform its inherent beauty to the paper always accompanied her wherever she went. As she grew up, she became more philosophical, more engrossed with learning about the world around her.

And now, she's older, in her mid years, and an accomplished writer. She mostly remained the same through this time-until one recent, bitter night when she heard the whispers of some one, some thing in her ear. Unable to locate its source, which was constantly growing louder and telling her more malevolent things, she was quickly driven insane...or, perhaps not insane, she instead was filled with a new purpose...

The scratching sounds grew more swift with each passing minute...a soft smile shown upon her lips: her work would soon be complete.

TO WILLIAM

William, Khelben and his Harpstar organization (PL 3) are offering to sponsor you (assuming someone else doesn't get them first!)
Also, the Church of Llirra Our Lady of Joy (PL 3), and the Church of Sune Our Lady of Love (PL 3) are offering their support.

The secret elven nation (the Flying City) in Ardeep Forest is offering it's support.
The Knights of Myth Drannor are offering their support.
The Dalelands are offering their support.
Aglarond is offering it's support.
Cormyr is offering it's support.
Luruar is offering it's support.

The Lord's Alliance (PL 10) is offering it's support.
Of course, Raven's Bluff (PL 7) is offering it's sponsorship! :)

The Faerie of Faerun (PL 10) are offering their support.
The Metallic Dragons of Faerun (PL 3) are offering their support.


TO ALL IN THE IR

The Church of Bane the Tyrant (PL 3) is offering to sponsor anyone opposed to William.
The Church of Loviatar (PL 3) is offering to sponsor anyone opposed to William.
Ditto Dambrath (PL 14)
Ditto the Daemonfey (a secret organization of half-elven/half-demons) (PL 3)
And especially the Eldreth Veluuthra (elves dedicated to wiping out all other races) (PL 2)
The Beholders have taken offense at this idea of 'peace' and 'tolerance'. To a beholder, there is only one perfect being in the universe - the beholder in question (NOT any other beholders.) So, the Beholders of the Moonsea (PL 3) and thus their allies Zhentil Keep (PL 5), are offering to sponsor anyone opposed to William.

Menzoberranzan (PL 5) is offering to sponsor anyone who will oppose William.
The Church of Lolth (PL 3) is offering to sponsor anyone who will oppose William.

The Unseelie of Faerun (PL 10) are offering their support to anyone who will oppose William.

The Church of Tempus (PL 4) vehemently opposes William, and will sponsor anyone who will denounce this peacemaker and diplomat.
 

POSTED BY WILLIAM

Ardan Turval wishes to discuss the current turmoil with his sponsors, the Lords of Waterdeep, the Church of Eldath, and the Church of Ellistrae.
He also begins correspondence with the other authors, asking them for their opinions on various issues. He also buys copies of the latest books.

TO WILLIAM

Don't worry. At this point, Waterdeep, the Church of Eilistraee, and the Church of Eldath are in solid agreement.
Indeed, in the increasingly destabilized world, they think a strong and just peace is the best answer not only morally and ethically, but also strategically - Waterdeep and it's allies must be united against a possible attack from without.
 

POSTED BY WILLIAM

Boy, are the elves of Evermeet going to embarassed about having a Red Wizard on the payroll. Someone in the Royal Court might be spending the next month cleaning up after the Unicorns.

FROM EDENA_OF_NEITH

That depends. If Janos accepts the sponsorship of the evil powers (see my article above), then Evermeet will embrace that evil, and it is likely Thay will have a change of heart, and offer to sponsor Janos (in effect, ally with Evermeet!)
IF Janos goes with the good aligned powers, then yes, Evermeet is going to be very embarrassed.
And Thay may just declare war on Evermeet, too.

- - -

The goodwill between Waterdeep and the Chosen of Mystra is not going overlooked.

Halruaa, Thay, and the Shade are now sending emissaries to each other to discuss this growing threat. It is possible one author could pick up the sponsorship of all three nations, if he or she would speak out against William and Kalanyr.

Is that like, IC knowledge?

Most likely the Orcs of Damara ate the courier.

TO BUGBEAR

Heh. I get the hint.
And yes, it works. It would appear the Avatar of Grummsh himself appeared and commanded the orcs to hear the Courier out.

The Orcs of the Moonsea (PL 5) are offering their sponsorship to you, Bugbear.
Not to be outdone, the Goblins of the Moonsea (PL 3) are also offering their help.

Mulmaster (PL 5), a long-time foe of Zhentil Keep, has been working to ally with the orcs and goblins (to send them in as cannon fodder against Zhentil Keep and Hillsfar, of course.)
Mulmaster, offers to sponsor you.
 

Kalanyr said:
He also makes sure to pick up one of these Gazettes and bits of this encyclopaedia, deciding he like the approach he sends in what he's gathered of the workings of magic.

Krisophrenos sends a grateful letter to Arkanyl, thanking him for his help, and offering him to become a Correspondent for the Gazette. He thanks him for his researches brought light upon some most obscure matters, and parts of it will be worked into the Encyclopaedia. He is also worried about the threats Arkanyl received, and the escalation of violence throughout the world.
