The Realms Citizen Dhal is hereby commanded report to report to the Count High-Templar. The individual responsible for bringing him forth to the House within one dwarven month from now (this may very well be Dhal himself) will recieve a compensation of 15 coins of gold. Reichsbürger Dhal ist hiermi...

I'll be visiting an old friend for the rest of the week (just like the 3 years before around the same time).
No Ssar'ney until that is done.

The Chosen One Herself had given the House of the Sea Serpent 300 coins of gold to trade in foreign food and distribute it over the course of 30 months (almost two years). Now, thanks to generous gifts and the Houses own investment, food worth well more has been handed out for just over 100 months....

People don't play this, because this is not a game, only a chat. The stuff behind this: -> Install Illarion <- ... clearly is a game. I checked. As the whole topic has been brought up so many times before, what do you intend to accomplish here (in this thread)? The data we have (or at least I had b...

Slightly did amazing with the quest today.
The descent into Letma accompanied by the demons mind play was positively unsettling.

Schließen des Lavatümpels - Closing the Lava Pond Das Haus der Seeschlange kümmert sich um das Entfernen des Lavatümpels vor den Toren der Reichsfestung. Dieses Unterhaben wird das Graben eines beächtlichen Sandvolumens, das Befestigen eines kleinen Kanals und die Macht des Elements der Göttin, Was...

Also I was wondering would it be okay for her to learn the arcane arts or is that just for mages? My character isn't so good with swords and fighting up close so she would prefer to use magic instead if that's possible. Technically it is only possible to practice 'one ' mystical craft at a time. Wa...

I ghost when my characters have the intention to (permanently, truly, gone forever) kill.
My characters react to ghosting as if it was an attempted kill/murder.
To me it is as simple as that.

The House of the Sea Serpent welcomes its youngest member Aaron Attosson Abenius and congratulates Family Abenius to their first child. May young Aaron grow as strong as devout as his parents to carry their legacy. Das Haus der Seeschlange heißt das jüngste Mitglied Aaron Attosson Abenius willkomme...

The House of the Sea Serpent would be interested in cases in which Knights or their superiors would idly refuse to take on an opportunity at hand to head out to take on threats which are as easily and definitely disposable as three eyed creatures. A single case 'was' known to the House, the individ...

Das Haus der Seeschlange lädt zu einen Raubzug auf die ihm bekannten Schatzkammern der Ketzer ein. Nach der Tradition des Hauses wird das geplünderte Gut gleichmäßig unter den Teilnehmern aufgeteilt. The House of the Sea Serpent does invite to a raid of the treasure vaults of heretic hideouts known...

The coin can be handed to Count Ssar'ney of the House of the Sea Serpent. Alternatively it may be held in reserve by the Head of the House of the Desert Fox. In the name of the Count High-Templar, ~Lettarius Scribe of the Third House http://s17.postimg.org/ljjfs2k7f/Schablone_Banner_neu_weich.png [...

Midday Fourth Day, Mas 53: No active enemy activity, the coreland is free of hostile forces. Last night saw heavy fighting, as reported above. A number of three eyed creatures (including dragons) have been lead away from the gates, now stumbling through the outer desert. Only one three eyed dragon ...

Second night, Mas 53: No enemy activity. Knight Trevall had found piles of bones placed in an half-circle around the pillars in front of the gates. These bones have been collected best as possible and burnt further back on the paved road to the cornerstone. While the expected immediate response of ...

Would it be possible for this to be put in a more accessible format, like a free web-survey or the forum-based poll option? This one is kind of a chore to do/read through. Anyways, my answer: X. (Habit) - I started RP-stuff with Illarion back in the day and here I know the game inside out (down to t...

One could also side-step the problem and introduce more or more easily available counters to excessively gemmed characters. Right now we do have in this regard: Staff-Magic completely ignores gem bonuses of its targets. (In fact, a correctly built, equipped and skilled mage is the most powerful thin...

"Wohlstand" or "prosperity" does not just mean to have a lot of money, but describes a high life-quality, which is a an idea just like like wisdom and honour. Maß an Wohlhabenheit, die jemandem wirtschaftliche Sicherheit gibt; hoher Lebensstandard [/url] An amount of wealth gran...

I'll jump on the band wagon and note that I found it kind of weird that Runewick and Cadomyr are realms of values/ideas while Galmair is a realm of a 'condition'. Especially the German translation "Wohlstand", directly translating to 'being wealthy' (which Galmair is right now, in relation...

Bill Bryson - A Walk in the Woods A book about an (attempted) go at the Appalachian Trail . It kinda confirms American sterotypes. Its a fun read, too. Bernhard Hennen - DSA: Das Jahr des Greifen For (RL-Pen&Paper) GM-preparation. An adventure/campaign book as old as I am, which it seems everyon...

The Count High Templar has spoken with Katharina Ross in person, with most questions published here having been adressed. Those of relevance to the public will be answered in the following: Der Graf Hohentempler persönlich sprach mit Katharina Ross über das Groß der hier gestellten Fragen. Jene von...

I'm liking the idea. (Hah, bet you did not see that one coming!) There are some points I am not quite sure on how I would approach them. I'll simply throw them out as somewhat unordered questions: What among online time, other "hard" requirements (things one can put in deterministic number...

Empfehlung bezüglich neuem Adel - Recommendation regarding new Nobility 13ter Zyklus nach der Rückkehr der Alten Götter, 5ter des Imras - 13th cycle after the return of the Old Gods, 5th of Imras As advisory Noble of Her Majesty, Chosen of the Goddess, this Noble had his members examine the current...

Valants Letzte Verwarung - Valants Last Warning The Galmarian newcomer 'Valant' is hereby issued his last (and first) warning. Should he once more raise arms against visitors of Cadomyr without legal justification, or claim lizardkind to have demonic appearance, he will be struck down without mercy...

@"Quality" events: People want to be entertained, they want to play the hero, they want to make important decisions... but they do not want to work for it. Thus, events and plotlines tend to die if you hand important tasks involving work (as in mapping, GM-communication, writing texts, cha...

In regards of inability to move up: In the Sea Serpent we are looking for people to take over branches of the House (Military, Diplomacy, Faith), where those people basically would replace Ssar'ney in the respective area. Can you guess how many people are interested in doing that, moving up in a gui...

@Nathi: Do you have ideas on what could replace organizing events as the primary requirement for town leader characters? I think it needs to be something measureable, which does show how active someone is in leading a settlement/ doing stuff for a settlement. Active followers would come to mind for ...

Current System in Cado (according to law, simplified): --- Cado has < 3 Nobles: Nobles have Houses (basically top-down political parties). People join Houses. The better a House serves Cadomyr, the more weight its voice have when advising the Queen. People in the Houses agree on who to support, the...

Over the last month the House of the Sea Serpent donated goods and money worth of 2600 coins of gold to the Royal treasury. With that the House did once again commit to the largest donation in the history of the New World. Über den letzten Monat spendete das Haus der Seeschlange Güter und Münzen im...

As the matter seems to be hot right now, a quick ooc-summary as to how things went down: The decision on 'who' becomes Nobility is the one of the Queen (=gm team), but the recommendations of the existing Nobles, the advisors of the Queen, weight pretty heavy (or so I think). This decision has not ye...
