 Vicks,
 Glaykor is one of our children and has the right to decide what he will
 and will not do during this war. Your senseless insults and accusations
 have hurt enough people. I am tired of Acerbus Ira looking for a way
 to blame everyone but themselves for what has happened to that
 once noble rainforest. The children of Sword of Night were told many
 moons ago that we had established peace. Only for Acerbus Ira to turn
 up now, yelling of a crime committed by Dethan, one who is not
 with is anymore, and using it to justify your honorless harrassment
 of my children. I do not want to war. I do not approve of such senseless
 killing; however, I will not let my children be abused for the amusement
 of others. Centhwevir has told me and our clan that he has worked
 with one of Acerbus Ira to reestablish peace between the clans.
 If Acerbus Ira is not able to abide by such decisions then they
 have no one but themselves to blame for the blood.

 since I am certain your "brethren" are watching, they

 I am a rogue at heart, and rogues have a certain
 dislike of being noticed by those outside their

 you should consider spending some of your

 serve to protect you. The Captain does not roam these streets
 for you to slaughter him, he is here to help. And if you cannot
 see that, and continue to kill him, that is a problem you must
 deal with amongst your peers. I halt what killings I see, but,

 Friends and Strangers,
 
 I have not been here, as long as most and for the most part (even after reading
 all posts) I do not know what this bickering is about. Many claim this war has
 been going on for a long time but what is it that you wish to accomplish.
 
 Wars are a last effort to right some wrong, but it still has attainable
 results. We all need to look at this logically. What wrong has been done here?
 What does each side wish to gain from all this fighting? What is each side
 willing to loose? It seems that there are three sides here. I am watching the
 entire city take sides and many friendships lost. So do not tell me you are
 willing to loose nothing because entire clans could be lost due to this war.
 
 I do not wish to offend anyone, I go out of my way to help anyone who asks for
 assistance even at great risk to myself. Currently I am clanless and I only
 make suggestions but I think it would show great effort and superiority of
 everyone involved to meet and talk this out instead of bickering in a posted
 letter. If everyone cannot meet I suggest an uninvolved party listen to each
 side and help negotiate a resolution.

 How odd, i have been away for a few days and suddenly its
 the vampires that are the ones who some people want to be rid
 of, rather than the normally hated sh'kur. It seems thouhgh
 that the only people who really want to rid this city of vamps
 completely are none other than the ones who are attacked and
 hated by the vampires....the sh'kur. Now, granted there ARE
 a few vamps out there who many would LOVE to be rid of, but
 it is looking as if its only the sh'kur who want them all gone.
 So this looks much like an attempt by the sh'kur to make their
 lives easier and possibly more peaceful. So instead of yelling
 that the sh'kur are fools and idiot and so on like many have, I
 will say these couple things: They have a right to want to live
 more peacefully and happily rather than being hunted, But the
 vampires have just as much claim to this city as anyone here.
 I am not saying anyone should hate anyone nor am i saying that,
 "I am trying to restore balance," because i doubt any type of
 balance will ever exist, but instead of yelling that vampires
 should be kicked from the city, perhaps you sh'kur should act
 more peaceful and argue that you want freedom and peace, rather
 rather than making yourselves look like the ones who have caused
 the problems...you might get farther...

 I and a group of fellow adventurers were hired to seek out information
 concerning DiEamen.  We were told that they were constructing a portal
 to the new continent of Djakiar.  We found this belief to be true.  The
 entrance to the portal lies somewhere east of town near Prehistoria.
 When we arrived inside the un-completed portal, we were greeted by two
 warriors, who posessed no capabilities of logical thought process, however
 they were good fighters.  After a brief questioning of them, we were
 greeted by a man named Tshmakal.  I believe him to be a citizen of
 Dkjakiar.  He was dark skinned and had a slight accent.  He was wearing
 very strang garb of an off-white color.  His head was covered, as if he
 had been in harsh sunlight.  He was obviously strong, because he carried
 the larges scimitar I have seen.  As I later learned, Dragons and Half-
 Dragons are enslaved on the continent of Djakiar and he believed me to
 be a lost pet.  When I told him I was no pet, he attempted to 'claim' me
 himself by forcing a piece of Drygonite on my person.  I have been badly
 burned and am seeking the help of the Hippie Church.  I have been informed
 they are seeking a cure.  Elstin, I believe you are still their leader,
 please get in touch with me as soon as possible.  I was saved from the

 Every race has those 'Monsters' , bad apples if you please.  Watch your

 A few days ago, a single person was chosen knight of Xantheus. His task
 was do eliminate Ande and his followers for good. When this time came
 a group of hopefuls gathered in the town to express ideas. In this group we
 had; Dethan, Emily, Amen, Glaykor, and Selmer.
 Together we tried to eliminate Ande. We followed Dethan to Ande's layer, in
 search of a way to keep him locked up forever. There, we were met with Dethan's
 maker, and after being threatened by her, Dethan and the followers were forced
 to leave.
 We needed ideas for destroying Ande, and by now, Dethan was already too weak
 to fight. We called upon the cleric Glaykor to perform his rituals, and seeming
 it worked. We devised a few ways to defeat Ande.
 1) Seal him in something incapable of being destroyed, opened, or touched by
 anyone
 2) Find the someone who knew of such things like Utonium, a vampire's nightmare
 After repeated attemps of holy water, it was time for a member to be gone.
 Amen had other business to do so she left. After walking around town looking fo
 for someone to talk to we stumbled across the captain of the city guards
 He was a nice smart man and offered many tips. But unfortunately, Dethan
 had to leave for more important issues. But just before Dethan left, Ande had
 attacked the guard, leaving us useless in our ways. So Dethan had gone, and
 soon after Emily left too. Now it was up to me and Glaykor.
 Just by luck we noticed the cityguard was alive for some strange reason, and
 we decided to pursue Dethan's idea. We talked and he came up with two
 solutions.

 How much blood must be drawn before you realize that enough is enough? Things

 of someone because of their race is as pointless as disliking someone because
 they have wings as Pixies do, or pointed ears as do Elves. Yes, we do have a
 history, but has history not also taught us that such things were wrong?
 It is noble that you wish to protect your friends and clansfolk, but I believe
 there is a line to be drawn between honor and what is just plainly ridiculous.
 What is there to prove by taking another's life? The first time it's done,
 we're aware you can do it. But what about the second time - third? What point
 does this hold? You may say that I simply don't know because it is not my
 way to do so, but I know that by this you tear apart the city. You should

 This city is our home, regardless if is inhabited by thieves, vampires or even

 not advocate you cannot strive to change the beliefs of people, only discuss
 with them different opinions. In this, a respect for each other must be
 endeavored for, because in the end, respect will lead to a more sacred
 kind of kinship amognst us all. I do wish for peace, but that does not mean
 everyone has to share my thoughts. I cannot stress that enough. I am entirely
 willing to hold councils composed of ideas you suggest, because no city
 can work without input from its citizens. In retrospect, I strive to for a

 It is true nameless, the numbers of any one race should not become

 switched their diets from rats and worms to the humanoid races to
 keep their numbers in check, so did we Sh'kur change part of our diet
 to feed on the flesh of vampires that is so commonly available.
 We however now live in a place where all races live together, supposedly
 as equals. In this realm it cannot be tolerated that one eats another,
 as we are all as one and thus this would be an act of cannibalism. There
 is an abundance of feeding possibilities available for every single one in

 I have come accross new information regarding the man I am seeking, Tshmakal,
 I have been told that he has visited the Half-Draogn city, so I will be
 spending much of my time there, until he decides to show up again, or I
 receive new information.  The reason I am telling you all this is that I
 seek help.  I know now that if I challenge him in my current state,
 the out-come is unclear.  I may be victorious, maybe not.  If there
 is anyone out there willing to train me for my hopeful encounter with
 Tshmakal I would appreciate it greatly.  Thank you.

 As Sandwich said him and I encountered cauldrons of black pudding
 creatures. They lined an entire passage way within the Orc holding.
 When we attempted to sacrifice them though they only came back a
 few moments later (repop I believe). So I believe we have found
 where the puddings have originated from.

 Nightblade, in your note you adressed that Sh'kur "have been wrongly
 hated for many years", and I would like to say that you are absolutely
 correct..... you just left out the part where we're still hated and still
 discriminated against today!!
 Mayln, in your note you said brandying words will get us no where.  Apparently
 you're absolutely correct.  Turgil requested something from you, and from the
 looks of the notice board, he was blatantly ignored.  He had a very good point
 too.  This city.... your city, still has vampires roaming the streets with no
 purpose other than to kill Sh'kur.  Are you doing nothing about this because
 you too, are a vampire and support what they are doing?  Who knows?
 Elstin, in your note you say our actions will enrage the current vampires.
 GOOD!  Maybe they'll get an idea of how we've felt all these bloody years!!
 Maybe when they start having to look over their shoulders everywhere they
 go to make sure no one's about to stab them in the back, they'll realize
 they never should have kept pushing us Sh'kur.  What goes around comes
 around my vampire friends, and if I have my way, what you've done to us
 will come back to you.

 First, let me apologize for not having joined in this discussion until

 been paying attention until now.  To come back to this line of...
 discussion...  is truly bewildering.  I have not spoken to Piotre, but
 I have spoken to Mercutio, and may I say, I have yet to make any sense
 of him.  On one hand he is claiming to be against discrimination and
 racism.  On the other, he groups all vampires as deranged, depraved,
 murdering beasts who take pleasure from nothing but killing children and
 Sh'kur.  I personally have a problem with this, Mercutio.  First, I've
 no deep, set-in-stone hatred of Sh'kur.  I call one Sh'kur my brother,
 and I'm honored and proud to know him.  Yet I am a vampire.  Second,
 I know I peronsally don't go out searching for the innocent to kill,
 as you imply that all vampires do.  Yet I am a Vampire.  How can
 you claim to oppose discrimination, yet discriminate against those
 you don't like with such broad strokes?  Ah, there lies the crux of
 the matter, does it not?  It is not discrimination you oppose, is it?
 It is discrimination against YOU that you have a problem with.  I
 have learned to look beyond race, to realize that one specimin does not
 necessarily represent an entire people.  And, Mercutio, Piotre, if one
 you consider to be lower than scum can learn this, and you can not, what
 does that say about you?  I do not blame the Sh'kur race for your actions,
 or what will happen as a result of them.  But take care.  I am watching

 Those who wish us dead see from narrow views. They believe we are

 every Vampire wishes to hunt you. You are making a grave stereotype
 when you state that, we are individuals, able to think independently.
 Whereas you have a hive bias, you see that we are all the same, with
 the one motive to kill. That is not true. And I can't say that I do
 understand what it is to be attacked for no reason, and I don't claim to.
 I sympathize with what you go through, and that is not how it has to be.
 I am working with members of Xantheus to ensure that Sh'kura will be able
 to stroll the streets without the fear of being shunned by a mere few with
 narrow views. In order for this to work, we must forsake the inborn hate
 that is burrowed within us to bring peace and fellowship amongst us.

 My policies may sound harsh, but I care not what someone does outside
 of our fair cities' walls, only what happens inside, where we work, live

 for thinking so highly of me to ALLOW me to live here, my home
 whereas the rest of my brethren be cast out, by force if need be.
 I did not think that my actions negated the blasphomy of my race, or
 forced upon race, should you consider my... creation as it were.
 
 Such praise of my individuality, however must be rejected as it
 is an attack on myself when the vampire race is singled out because
 of our evolvement of the mortal races.  You spoke of how many of the
 other races and their respected roles in this world are there to preserve
 nature, to honour life and its cycles, its faiths.  Well vampires are that
 cycle.  Nature will sprout its own defence when one set of beings becomes
 too dominant to that of thier surround environment.  Mice are prey to cats,
 cats enemies to dogs, dogs outclassed by bears and so on.  Vampires
 are the solution to humans and the other races that now feel they are at
 the top of the food chain.  We are born to keep that population in check.
 Vampires are here to balance the threat of you other mortals from
 disturding the natural order of things.

 unnatural. Next will be the halfelves, or gith (forgive me my friends). They
 aren't wholly natural. Cursed mixed breeds,, they aren't natural, let's kill
 them all. Half elves, half ogres and trolls  (forgive my words my friends,
 while I make this point) They aren't natural either. Finish them
 all.
 See where your destructive tendencies can lead, using your
 own words, you own train of thought. Don't start a murder spree
 that you can't handle. It might not be long before another race
 thinks that you are not natural, that your race should be gone.
 You already said that Ofcal excepts you. Other towns will too.
 most people in this town except your brethren. Those that don't *shrugs*
 that's something you have to live with. I have to live with
 paying astronomical prices for everything because how I look.
 (maybe we should kill all you handsome and beautiful people because
 it isn't natural or fair that you get better prices)  Same ludicrous
 excuses for another perceived injustice.

 The Hippie quest went very well in my perspective.
 The curse that hangs over the church forced us hippies
 to move to another place in search for a nice area to build the church.
 Pentir immediately came to mind. Once there, we confronted
 Quinlank, the bartender, who was very generous. He
 was able to tell us of some land that is owned by
 different shop keapers in this town. We were instructed
 that Jorandel, the black smith, was holding some land.
 He instructed us to check it out east of the town and
 to the southeast of the guard tower. The ground was nice,
 for building on.
 We ran into a big problem with a tall warrior that was
 hiding out in Pentir from the last time we had our
 altercations. After disposing of him, we confronted
 Quinlank once again in hopes to have him approve of
 the land. He was very outgoing and he agreed that the
 land was good for the job. We asked Jorandel how
 much he would sell the land for and it turned out that we needed
 to bargain with him. We were instructed to gather fine
 equipment. Good enough equipment to make
 competition in Pentir.
 During this process, we ran into a very big problem.
 The creature known as Balrog came out and started his assault.
 I wasn't able to hurt him enough to kill him. I had to go shortly

 It began, shortly after my world was formed...
 I left, to train as an enigmatic, yet charismatic, Paladin.
 Noble and True, my guild smashed all the evil from the land.
 Yet, as the greatest of the Immortals witnessed this, he spawned a demon
 He spawned pure evil. He spawned Vengeance. He gave it catastrophic power,
 and he released it upon all the peoples. Quickly, however, Vengeance grew
 stronger than it's creator. It destroyed my village, and in one final showdown
 the demon lept within me. The greatest creator took his last chance, and
 banished me to another world. Eventually I was freed of the demon... yet
 before I could finally take my revenge, the creature suceeded in destroying
 The God of Good upon that world. Before he died, he bestowed me with his powers
 His death brought about the death of my world. Yet I managed to take the great
 demon Vengeance within a crystal shard known as the Twilight's Requiem.
 However, Seph... my young brother, was also tainted beyond heal.
 Now he has been slain by the demon within him... and has left.
 I leave with the courage of Haveesh, and I go in his holy name.

 created gives them the right to exist how they want.

 Citizens of Arathnos,
 
 As a Knight of this land, it is part of my duty to keep you informed
 on the happenings in our city.  Our town was  infiltrated and attacked
 by dozens of 'oozes' that found their way in by means of a black
 cauldron.  Eyecap was the first to discover them and send up a
 warning.  A small battle soon incurred between Arathnos's adventurers
 and the 'oozes'.  Chaz, Mercutio, Stoneface, and Lakirch fended off the 'oozes'
 in our town, while Glaykor, Rhaz, and myself combatted the 'oozes'
 in our neighboring towns of New Ofcol and the Gnome Village, which we
 were informed were under attack by Dune.  There were already many
 casualties, so Orkus and Arknor set up at Mirza to heal the wounded.
 After a bit of research, we discovered where the Cauldrons originated
 so an effort was made to return them.  Once all the 'ooze' were destroyed
 and the cauldrons sealed, they were taken back by Zokor and Viktor.  Zokor
 played an essential role, being the only one with enough strength to carry
 the massive cauldron back where it belonged.  I must add that I was very
 pleased that everyone was able to set aside their differences and ban together
 to combat this evil.  I do not believe this to be an act of any of our enemies,
 I believe it to be a freak mishap, and nothing to worry over.

 Seph... or whatever has embodied his twisted and mangled remains, has
 left this world. Left this plain of existance. He discovered the few
 scraps of pages of the Tome of Eleison... the story and history of my
 once proud family. Attatched to this note is a brief reccolection of an
 old man... all that remains of my few shattered memories.
 Using the scrawl on the pages, he managed to unlock the key to an ancient
 secret... the power of Trangeomaterialization. In short, he has managed
 to open a portal to one of the other worlds created by those who created
 you... created me. He leaves, perhapse, back to my home. Perhapse, he
 leaves back to the world we were both origionally from. Perhapse also
 he leaves to ravage a new world. His distructive nature will not be stemmed
 untill he is finally destroyed. However, my powers as the Lord of all Good
 upon my world weaken with distance and time away, yet I will undertake this
 one final trial. My world was completely destroyed by the sire of the demon
 whom resides within Seph. I leave now, to find where Seph has travelled to,
 and hopefully, to end his rain of destruction, by destroying my own being
 in one last flash of holy wrath. Justice shall be served... Eternally.
 ... Why then, am I afraid... to finish this last task of mine?
 I do this... for the light. May the sun shine always...

 The recent changes of looting rules forced us, Xantheus' clan leaders,
 to make our own rules and enforce them. Whether you're allowed to loot
 depends on the clan rules and the loot list. A clan bag, however, shall
 not be touched. If you loot a clan bag you'll be outcast and pursued by
 all deadly, clanned players. Clan bags are considered sacred, if you
 accidently take one, you'll have to give it back asap together with the
 complete contents. Briefly: don't touch anyone's clan bag.
