'o Skoteinos

First Post
With the assassination of Turrosh Mak by the Shades (or that's what it seems, at least...), a new and before unheard man rises to power. His name is 'o Skoteinos (pronounced as "Ho Skoteinos", Ancient Greek for "The Dark One") and he is the leader of the Royal Assassin Guild (LN Human Male Wiz 5/Red 10/Acm 5/Asn 10/Epic 10).

He sends a message to the allies of Turrosh Mak (and, I hope, now my allies):

"With this tragic envent still on our mind, it may seem strange for an unknown person to suddenly take the power, but rest assured: I will continue Turrosh Mak's policy of peace with our neighbours, for I believe that way lies prosperity.

I am Ho Skoteinos, former leader of the Royal Assassin Guild, new leader of The Pomarji. The reason I have so suddenly stepped forward is the muder of our great leader, Turrosh Mak, by the lowly Shades. Clearly, for those creatures of the Dark, the slaughter of armies and the sacrifice of sentient beings is not enough. They want to take our nation, and, perhaps with it, our alliance, down. I ask you once again to stand united against the unspeakable evil that has invaded Oerth from Toril.

I'd like to reiterate that I want our relationship to stay the same as before the shift in power, and that I will do everything in my power to keep the peace, and to drive the darkness from Oerth."

I declare a day of mourning in all of my controlled area's.

OOC: Allies, could you please mail me something about our relationship? The tech we're trading, the research we're doing, any troop activity near my borders and anything else that you deem appropriate for me to know...
Email: Rom_Arendonk@yahoo.com

Edena, who really killed Turrosh Mak? The Shades, me, I don't really care. If it means a lot to Lord Melkor, he'll have the honor...

Gosh Forrester, remind me never to give you links to 10th level magic with Netheril and the elves as well ;)

You didn't help against Vecna -- in fact, early on you instigated war.

Thus, you should have to pay reparations.

It's not that difficult a concept :).

'o Skoteinos is now the player of the Pomarj.

He gains all of Turrosh Mak's countries, PL, and everything else.

What he chooses to do, and who he chooses to ally with, is up to him.

I will add 'o Skoteinos to the Lists.

My reversal of the ruling on Forrester, stands.

I am still waiting to see of Alzem is joining the IR.

- - -

IR Interlude should not have been the name of this thread.
IR Insanity should have been it's name.

You people realize that we have lost Turrosh Mak's chatroom, don't you?
We have lost Turrosh Mak's IR Website, a disaster.

I will back up all the IR threads, but I cannot produce a website, nor can I place these threads up for reading anytime soon.

- - -

I will begin Turn 4 of the IR on Saturday, at 1 in the afternoon my time (13:00 hours eastern time, United States of America.)

This assumes I receive all of the Templates by that time, and they are accurate.

There is no change in Turrosh Mak's roster.
The name is changed to 'o Skoteinos.

Farewell, Turrosh Mak, and thank you for playing.
I really enjoyed having you in the IR.
I will miss you badly.
If you ever decide to return, let me know. You will be welcome to return.

Yeah, it is OOC, but OOC and IC I'm standing up for my allies and my honor. No one likes being portrayed as a sycophant.

Please don't fight, folks.
I do not wish to lose another 2 or 3 players from the IR.

If I do, I'm quitting.

You must realise that at some point one or more powers will probably be completely annihilated and the player will take the consequences and quit. I know that if my power is destroyed I will greatly reduce my posting and mostly haunt the thread as a lurker. I beg you not to quit because of that. I'm in this to the "death" but not after it.

---
Are Shade the only faction on Oerth that deny Forrester? Serpenteye, Acerak, do you pay him tribute?
---

I do not pay him tribute but I still try to negotiate some sort of settlement that will secure our peaceful coexistence. Sometimes you must bend to avoid being broken and sometimes it all amounts to the same in the end. Sometimes it is better to break and sometimes you must sell your soul for survival. Time will tell what choice is the wiser.

Serpenteye, I am quite honest when I say that if you want peace, you will have to make sacrifices.

All in the Oerthian Alliance have made grave sacrifices stopping Vecna. They did this while you sat on your throne and laughed at how we were weakening each other. They did this while your power level doubled. They did this while you rooted for our destruction.

You want peace without a price. You want peace without payment. Without sacrifice.

No.

If you want peace, it will come at a cost. The tribute need not be paid to me -- it may be paid to Dagger, or the Gnomes, or William (who has taken the hardest hit in this war), or all of us.

The cost will be considerable. If you wish to negotiate, then that is your right.

If you do not, do not be surprised if you are not around in the near future.

You, unlike Talos, have a brain in your head. You recognize when you have a losing hand. You are lucky that we are still talking.

You have two courses in front of you. Choose wisely.

Lord Forrester

Lord Forrester

You and the Oerth alliance were not the only ones who made sacrifices to stop Vecna. I sacrificed an ally. I turned aside from the Shade's pleas because I could not stand to see Vecna win. We could have moved against you then. If the Dark Union had joined forces with Vecna he could have won. You know how close he came, my 200 points could have sealed the fate of the world. And if I would have moved perhaps my other allies had too. Consider what could have happened then. You payed a low price for victory compared to what it could have been.
Yes, the Dark Union stood aside. And yes, I was pleased that Vecna struck west instead of east into my lands. Can you really blame me for that? The armies of the Dark Union stood aside but our greatest champion did not. Kas lost his arm and almost his life in the Bloody Waste. Do not say that we did not make sacrifices. We sacrificed for the sake of Oerth and her people. We love this world. We belong here.

Well Mr. Serpenteye, I don't want to shoot out the idea until I get some more views on it. Then if they like it, I or one of them will send you a message. Should be in the next few hours though, I would think.

And what might that be, Mr Mountain Tosser ;)? You've roused my curiosity.

Acererak dunn't pay no stinkin' tribute to anyone. Skulls just don't bend that way. 'sides, Vecna wasn't his responsability and he couldn't have helped if he wanted to.

However, he does understand that he may have been slightly immoderate with his light luncheon at the party -err- battle, and accidentally ate some people's army.

Modest and reasonable reparations might be discussed.

------------------------------------

Korenth Zan is upset at the death of a few million Suel and isn't speaking to you. And you're off his christmas card list, and if you think he's returning your rake now, think again.

------------------------------------

I think the halving thing goes a very long way towards putting things back into balance, thanks for that.
