Summarily as ever, Captain Malchus executed his last official act by nailing a parchment to the Guard House's announcement board. He breathed a sigh, either one of regret or relief, and took one last look at his writ before removing the blue cloak which had served hitherto as his unofficial uniform....

A new parchment was attached by Malchus to the guard house's announcement board. PREPARATIONS FOR MAS 71 Citizens of Runewick, the month of Mas will be upon us soon. Prepare accordingly! Citizens are strongly advised to not leave the safety of town during Mas. Keep your pantry well-stocked with enou...

"Greetings, Brassius. How goes the watch?" Brassius Meres politely bowed his head, as Malchus approached and greeted his fellow guardsman. "Be greeted, Captain. All is calm, nothing unusual to report." "Good, good. Listen up, we got new orders from the Council: There's conc...

Thanks for the fun festival of light, in particular to Amelia for organising it, to Greum for being a hilarious force of chaos, and to Katharina for the amusing bickering.

It was a busy day at Runewick's hospital when Malchus dropped by: Aswe, ever the dutiful medico, was doing her ward round in company of Irena Monteira and tending to Flannery, who, since an unlucky encounter with some particularly oversized and murderous rodents, had to stay at the hospital for some...

Doing his daily patrol through Runewick, Malchus decided to make a brief detour into the library. As he quietly walked in between the bookshelves, he discreetly pulled a scroll from behind his cloak and dropped it on the librarian's desk when no one was looking. Sooner or later, he reasoned, the lib...

Thanks to your commendable support, fellow citizens, Runewick's guards will be well-equipped and well-groomed.

Malchus
Captain of the Runewick Guard

Malchus wrapped himself in his dark blue cloak and lit his lantern as he left the guard house after dusk. The recent murders demanded heightened security measures, hence his nightly patrol, or so he explained to the few folks who at such late hour were still out and about. This, however, was but a p...

Malchus visits the announcement board and attaches a parchment. Treasures await YOU! Do you know how to fight, dig, or read a map? If your answer to any of these questions is "YES!", you are welcome to join Runewick's upcoming treasure hunting expedition! Where: Runewick's tavern When: 14t...

Malchus returned from his usual patrol around Runewick's countryside, spotting at the guard house a giant of a man, clad in armour and wielding an axe. It wasn't the first time that Malchus met Sigumari Sanguis, who even towered over the captain himself, but seeing Sigumari all battle ready impresse...

A letter to Aswe sent from the Hemp Necktie Inn: 8th Irmas 71 Hail Councillour Aswe I send news from Galmair, where I currently am on an errand. I happened upon Proctor Oxiana, his daughter Amelia Rotholz, and the elven witch Clairette, who shared with me that another murder happened recently, this ...

I thank you on behalf of the Town Guard for your generous support, Deanna. We will make sure that the potions which you provide to the Guard will be put to good use for the benefit of Runewick.

Malchus
Captain of the Runewick Guard

The Town Guard reports: With the Academic Council's approval and the help of locals and a hired hand, the barricades were fully dismantled.

"A concerning case," Malchus murmured as he brooded over the findings at his desk. The corpse which Aswe had recently found and examined boded ill. The victim was by no means an ordinary man: His size and build was prodigious, and his armour and many scars were a testament to his experien...

Malchus approached the announcement board with a furrowed brow, bearing a parchment and hammer. As he read Aswe announcement, he shook his head in bewilderment, and nailed his parchment to the board. BEWARE! A yet unidentified man has been found murdered outside Runewick at the northward road. Crimi...

Aswe's cries remained not unheard, as a man came running from town, following her familiar voice. It was Brassius Meres. "Councillor, are you alrigh-," he stopped as he beheld the gruesome find. "W-wait here, I'll get the Captain!" Soon enough both returned, panting from the hast...

Orion Lysander's trial yesterday was quite intense and brimming with great roleplay. Aswe made a commendable effort as prosecutor and I'm glad she chose to take on that role, but I believe Delfina De'Puy stole the show as Lysander's defence attorney. Hats off! I also had a good chuckle at Ka'Shas's ...

Malchus was awoken by the midday sun which shone through the narrow window above his bed, his clothes haphazardly scattered across his bed chamber. Rumination after Lysander's trial and an unexpected, albeit very welcome diversion had kept him awake for most of the night. The long sleep was exactly ...

"Hear ye, hear ye, ye good people o' 'Wick! Are ya tired o' bein' impeded by the barricades right outside o' town? If so, come forward an' sign this petition!" The Guard Captain towers over the crowd at the marketplace, brandishing a parchment in his hand before nailing it to the announce...

I can only concur, Ellis Moon made my day and I hope to see more of him. I've also been enjoying plenty of RP recently with Allesandra. Also thanks to Katharina and Aleytys Lamar for the nice RP during the sparring session in Cadomyr.

Malchus struck through Lysander's wanted poster and scribbled something over it in big, red letters.

A familiar, eyepatched face returned to the inn, bearing a letter, which the barkeep received together with a coin. "A message to you-know-who from Councillor Caswir himself," explained Malchus as he handed him the letter and his pay. The dwarf assured his commitment by pressing letter and...

Yet a few days later, Malchus returned to the Hemp Necktie, this time in his usual armour of boiled leather, covered by a dark blue cloak; the sign of his current professional allegiance to Runewick. "Any tidings?" inquired the one-eyed giant from the dwarven barkeep as he sat down on a st...

Two new parchments have been nailed to the Town Guard's announcement board by Malchus. WANTED ALIVE Orion Lysander WAIVED BY COUNCIL'S ORDER https://i.imgur.com/r5xh22r.png Description: A middle-aged man of average height. Athletic and of swarthy complexion, dark-haired and dark-eyed. The fugitive i...

A hulking man draped in a black cloak entered the inn, his remarkable height drawing the attention of many a patron. As he made his way to the bar counter, some may have spotted the eyepatch beneath the hood, which he wore pulled down far into his face. Even as he sat down to order a cup of warm mea...

In the morning, Captain Malchus stepped out of the guard house, carrying ink and quill. His expression appeared uncertain, concerned even, and he furrowed his brows in anger as he found his first notice torn off the board. "Insolence," he grumbled and nailed the decree back onto the board,...

A fortress of brown stone towers over the first island of Runewick, drawing the attention of all who cross the bridge and enter the town. Muffled chatter resounds from inside, only interrupted by the loud wooden banging and occassional grunts of the sparring garrison. An engraved plaque on the heavy...

'Twas a fun Mas. Great fight outside of Runewick; shout-out to my dwarven brother in arms Martin, Katharina, Clairette, Shireena, Caswir and Aswe for helping us lift the undead siege of Runewick. Also props to "the mysterious orc" for giving us a real challenge. I also enjoyed the aftermat...

Oh, I know exactly why Amelia enjoyed that last gambling session.

The one-eyed man nails a small note to the post, using his mace as a hammer.

"I'll take care of that. Meet me at the Hemp Necktie Inn at your convenience.
