(Way, way, way... way too over the top. Why Edena? Why do you have to complicate this sooo far...)
FROM EDENA
(genuine look of hurt feelings)
I do my best. That is all I can do.
This is an IR. I am putting the Industrial, into the IR ... the creators of the Forgotten Realms Setting very throughly industrial revolution-proofed the setting. I have worked hard to create a believable story in which that proofing was overcome.

Gustav will deal with it as any leader should, he will send envoys of diplomacy, encourage public sanitation programs, produce doctors of both magical and mundane means through field training, and begin the contruction of magical and mundane research for counter-measures for the problems.
FROM EDENA
Unfortunately, medieval thinking and methods are no match for chickenpox, not when chickenpox is 50% lethal.
The clerics of Imaskari, concentrate an all out assault on the illness, using all their combined magic to stop it. That, and the fact that Imaskari is under a strong leader (Gustav) saves most of the people of Imaskari.
The Dark Crusaders are driven out of all the lands of Imaskari.
The Dark Crusaders, are beset by the chickenpox themselves, and they are having new problems ... many of their Fiends are mysteriously going out of control, and turning into mindless killers - who immediately attack their fellows.
The Silver Cabal offers it's aid to Imaskari.
Louis Pasteur talks to your emissaries, Creamsteak (see my post above.)

BUGBEAR POSTED
Then they have to go to the quarentine camps, sorry. Perhaps they can help find a cure.
FROM EDENA
The Chosen are not ill from chickenpox.
The Chosen, are ill from something else that is not a disease. Their behavior is considerably less rational than it was, they are prone to violence and fits, and are increasingly talking about things Chosen would not discuss: the need for world domination, the joy of using destructive magic, the need to dominate using magic, the need for magic to be held in the hands of the elite.
FROM BUGBEAR
The Dauntless (I guess I speak for them now?) reply that this was not an intentional attack against there worlds. They point out that Toril is suffering from the red death as well.
TO THE ENTIRE IR
If everyone agrees to this, I wish to make Bugbear the person in control of the Dauntless.
His character is held in high esteem already, and with the new crisis the Dauntless want his character as their High Speaker (which will end in his character being their effective ruler.)
I request that someone take control of the Nations of Krynn.
This can be anyone in the IR who does not already control a power.
BUGBEAR POSTED:
Same ansewer as above ((reference to the powers of Oerth))
FROM EDENA
I request someone take control of the Powers of Oerth.
This must be someone who will be hostile to Toril.
Thus, my request is aimed at: Mr. Draco, Inez, Forsaken One, and Melkor.
BUGBEAR POSTED:
where do the athasians gain terretory? We send emesaries to them asking for a cease-fire and councel. ((reference to the onslaught from Athas))
FROM EDENA
Here and there, across Toril.
They do not negotiate. They KILL everyone they encounter. They savage the land as they come.
I request someone extremely hostile to Toril take up control of the Athasians.
Melkor, or Forsaken One, would do nicely.
BUGBEAR POSTED:
okay, here goes
1> Opening trade between our worlds, those who have an aptitude for magick may learn it.
We ask that those of us who have an aptitude for earths technology and sciences be allowed to learn as well.
2> We want a cure for the diseases ravaging the worlds of Krynn, Toril, Athas, and Oreth. If they don't have a cure, we willl ask there aid in finding one. Also, any information that thay have concerning the entity which came to our world through the gnomish gate.
FROM EDENA
Earth is still agog at the Torilians.
Due to the anarchy on Toril, trade is going to be difficult, but many nations on Earth agree to it.
The most important development is the offer of the Silver Cabal, which is made to EVERY power (including yours, Serpenteye) on Toril.

TOKIWONG POSTED
Misha speaks for the Dauntless as well...
FROM EDENA
I would have no problem with Tokiwong and Bugbear, dividing control of the Dauntless as they see fit.
I need someone to take control of the Free Nations of Faerun.
Unless someone objects, I would like this person to be William.
Or, control of the Free Nations could be split amongst those interested.

MR DRACO POSTED:
Edena, is there any more ability (held by the Dauntless or the Free Nations) to produce more of the gnomish domination books?
FROM EDENA
Mr. Draco, you can now produce your own Books of Domination.
The Dauntless and the Free Nations are probably able to produce their own as well, although it is unlikely they will do so.
Nobody is producing Gnomish Books of Domination anymore, since Bugbear's Antidote got out.

SOLLIR POSTED:
The ambassadors of the Dark Crusaders immediately take advantage of the situation, passing out Mirriam's books of "Flame and Pyre", -Domination Magick or not-This is a way for people to prevent themselves from being infected by disease and a cure for those who don't wish to be supported by the godlings who charge for their efforts. These books are handed out for free and passed onwards to others to share.
More of the Dark Crusaders and worshippers of the fiends transform into fiends...in the case that the domination magick would break, they would still be bonded to devils...
Meanwhile, Mirriam rests...and somewhere, some part of her inside of her cries and laments at what she has done.
FROM EDENA
Noted.
The Dark Crusaders are reeling from Bugbear's Antidote, but you are producing new Fiends.
Unfortunately, many of them are mysteriously going out of control, and attacking everyone at random.
Others, are joining your ranks as you intended.
