(Again, if Serpenteye allows me to play the drow this is relevant, and if not it's not relevant)

Eclavdra makes a comment which is forwarded expeditiously to the illithid, and of course is heard openly by Iuz:

We know that the illithid detest the sun, would see the sun extinguished, and with their communal intellect work toward that end.
We the drow have historically chosen the enclosing granite strength of the Oerth over the lightscalded World Above.
Iuz the Magnificient and Omnipotent, in His endless and eternal wisdom, has ever whelmed and crushed His foes with darkness. And I might ask: what being that looks to the sunlight, could ever hope to understand and befriend the darkness?
In our common wisdom and intellect, our profound understandings, and always instructed and guided by Iuz the All Knowing, we transcend all who must look into the blinding glare of sunlight for their guidance.

*Iuz sent Sendings to all his allies feeling suddenly creative. *

Iuz, in his wisdom didn't destroyed the light. Eternal foe of the dark, and false promise for those blinded with it's glitter. Didn't earth itself grow plants in tries to devour it ? Without light, the creatures bewitched by it would open their eyes ... and who gives free advantage to enemy ? Let the fools grow fat in their blindness. That wich didn't kill You, only make You stronger.

Iuz has spoken.

*To Acererak, speech prepared by one of the liches in the service of Iuz.*

Wise and Mighty Archlich, ascendant in his arcane wisdom hig above dim witted fools, like Vecna who's biggest pretension is godhead. Those devoted to their Art, like thou, know that diverting their attention weakens their resolve. After burning down pretensional Theocracy, wich is thorn in my side ... ten thousands slaves will came to place of Your choosing. As a boon, to strengthen our friendship and evidence my honesty.

*To Wolf God of Goblinkind and Giantkind*

My son.

(OOC: This is the only way that Iuz may tolerate another deity, true or ascending. At least from my point of view. :) )

Upstarts from Theocracy, weak and soft, will quail like rabbits under our shadows ! Their children will be our slaves, their so called men will die horrible deaths to please us, their women will be ours. Their riches ... rightfully ours, are too. Each city will belong to one who's armies conquer it. If some of them, by accident, will be besieged by forces of both of us ... Plunder will belong wholly to the Gods. And city will be razed to the ground as a mark of friendship. :]

Iuz has spoken.

*To Eclavdra, demonic god was unusually nice. Prospect of torment, perhaps ...*

Supreme Matriarch ... I can see that thorn in Your side, trechearous fools who rejected their proud heritage for delusions of weakling, bah, goddes. Will You agree with me that such nonsense is irritiating at best ?! In Our infinite generosity we will make of these fools example, that will teach them the error of their ways ... and any Drow defying You is spitting in Our face. Is there any one among Your brave herd, who is willing to prove hi's or her's loyalty to Your cause ? Brave hero only should find their nest, whenever they had cowardly hide themselves, wich no true Drow would ever do. Don't You think that such little test may be entertaining ?

Go with my blessings Supreme Matriarch. May Your enemies cry in fear.

(OOC: Elistaree might lose some worshippers here ... :) And any remaining "independent" Drow will learn what happens to those who defy Valsharess Eclavdra. ;) )

*To everybody else.*

Our country, blessed with my divine attention is open for trade from now. Remeber the laws: You have right to defend Yourself. What You kill is Your. Iuz's will that is.

Edited in to previous post. Uh, that's not special for this game, is it...?
Nah ;) Had it since I was 13 years old :) (that almost 8 years ago ;))

Starcraft inspired me hehe, I was a pro-gamer Terran player and well... nothing is as cool as an Infested Terran but as Terran you gotta stick with your teams 500 dmg dealer :p
 

Sorry that I was away for a bit. My computer started acting up yesterday, so I had to take care of a few things. In the good news, one headache is resolved as soon as I can visit a mailbox. So, I am SERIOUSLY considering joining in. As such, I will try to round up more people.

Rikandur Azebol, thanks for the invite. As for Iuz, based on my reading of the Living Greyhawk Gazeteer, I suspect he gained demigodhood shortly before his disappearance in 505 Common Year. During his disappearance, Iuz's clergy had magical powers and the faith grew. (Of course, Iuz's cult may have had a little demonic help. Iuz's dad is the Demon Prince Graz'zt he might have had a bit of help. Iggwilv, a powerful arcane caster who was or perhaps is Iuz's mother, could have provided some help for him. Iggwilv was/is of mixed Flan and Baklunish stock, which would tend to preclude full acceptance by the Suel supremacists of the Scarlet Brotherhood.

I see you may have realized one of the big problems with turning off the sun: agriculture and plantlife. Also, it might be a problem for lycanthropes, as you can't really have much moonlight without sunlight. Suffice it to say, everything seems to be getting interesting.

You might be interested to read The Final Word on Iuz and Company written by Erik Mona and Witch Queen, Demon Lord

Everyone, do try to get a Living Greyhawk Journal. It can help give you an idea of who is who in the World of Greyhawk and might give you a few more ideas for your faction.

Edena, thanks for the insight on the Solistarrim. I agree with you now that greed, not racial hatred is a primary motivating factor of theirs. I do like the H.G. Wells reference. They would truly be a wild card.

I am fairly familiar with the World of Greyhawk, as I do play in Living Greyhawk events. (There was a convention in the Chicago suburbs, with a great interactive involving a castle seige, giants, trolls, and ogres.) So, while we await the return of Serpenteye, can I answer any questions for the factions here.
