Pre-game diplomacy is so intense that many of us are forgetting that here or there is Sblock with important diplomatic message waiting. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />For example my two ambassadors to neighbourn countries are still waiting outside the gates. (hint, hint for Bugbear and William  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> ) You may wish to Join any alliance, I know of three:Neutrality Aliance, everybody are signed up for free. C-N alliance started by James. Eclavdra fled in dread from his capital. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />The Erelnhi-Cinul Pact, started by Edena, CE alliance started by Drow to protect them from mass slaughter by the hands of surface elves.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> Alliance started by William, I guess as a response to threat generated by TEC Pact not, like Eclavdra is pointing out stubbornly, to amass enough firepower to slaughter the Drow and any other Evil PC. Like my innocent Demigod. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />And I know about two ... no, three secret alliances, but they "aren't" of great concern to You.OOC, but semi IC:What is happening ? If League of Athyr have spies in Empire of Iuz they can report that his armies are on the move towards the borders with Theocracy of the Pale. Everywhere is aloud that Theocratists send Vile Daemons to slaughter innocent citizens of Dorakaa, but His Holy Highness, God-Tzar Iuz the Invicible ... > blah, blah, enough knowtowing to ashame even devil, blah, blah< ... saved his people and buthered. Hundreds of them and after the week whole hordes of Gehenna. You know, gossip. The most thrilling new is that Iuz promised that Theocracy will pay for it's crimes. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />OOC, the truth:Iuz was frustrated that Al'Akbar ignored his ambassador ... and while he was enjoying flight in the form of Balor, he flied into murderous rage and make little massacre on the slave market in Dorakaa. Barely several dozens of people ... He came to his senses when one of enraged citizens, who were attacking demon in hysterical frenzy, called name of Iuz while striking the "demon". Iuz suddenly used this opportunity to blame everything on Theocracy and pretended that he was in Palace all the time. <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/devious.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":]" title="Devious    :]" data-shortname=":]" /> He "smote" the "demon" from afar and loudly announced, that even sleeping several miles  away from city bears avoke, who is responsible for this attack. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":o" title="Eek!    :o"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":o" /> And so ... Theocracy is going to be invaded. Broken, looted and exploited mercilessly. One third of the surviwing citizens is going to regret that they surviwed, and 10 thousands that Iuz will send to Acererak will regret that they were born. Rest of surviwors, those who will land in Iuz's hands, will wait for bleak perspective of painful, or volontuary, conversion to His Faith. And hard work in Tenh, or in andamantite mines of Underdark. Or any fate that they carve for themselves. Iuz don't punish sucess. And need their resouces ... unfortunatley for them. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Remember that it is written OOC, so You may know it as a Player. I think it is fair to announce things involving other Players openly, so they may prepare themselves. Even if their PC's have no clue.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/nervous.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":heh:" title="Nervous Laugh    :heh:" data-shortname=":heh:" />And I have another plan for Your Power, even more sinister. <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/devious.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":]" title="Devious    :]" data-shortname=":]" />What would You say if Tharizdunites will kidnap VIP from Your fold, Iuz save her accidentaly ... and marry her ?  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> It is serious disadvantage, I'm losing pace slowly ... even in open negotiations. The secret ones, even my own, are making me lost ... I have not enough complex mind to emulate Iuz's byzantine politics.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f615.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:"  data-smilie="5"data-shortname=":confused:" /> And If You wish I could write You @mail about my template, how I constructed it etc. I posted it in the open because I belive that Palyers wouldn't spoil their fun by giving their PC's "forbidden" knowledge.</blockquote>
