Samantha Meryadeles casted offensive magic upon me today the 23rd of Olos in the tavern. This is within town bounds and I am a citizen. I did not pull a blade on her or tell her I was going to hurt her. She apparently thinks I am in some temple(witch I am NOT). She broke basic law #9 witch states... Dantagon was the only witness I knew there. He and I are both sworn to an oath of truth.


Magic can be used for defense of the town. Aggressive magic for any other reason is banned, because magic can be quite unpredictable, meaning it could cause unintended consequences to others. Dueling IS permitted in town as long as it is within a certain distance from a building and road (5 paces).

It appears Samantha thinks she can do whatever she pleases in Troll's Bane with no regard for our laws.

An elf named Callith admits to seeing Samantha take a ring I dropped during her attack on me. You can add theiving to the charges on her.

I am a member of no temple, there is not law that says temple members cannot come in Troll's Bane. I told you to beware for your friends because you said you were going to find Gabon who attacked some one you knew. I was warning you to be carefull, for Gabon is a strong and powerful orc. I broke no laws where you did.

~Dain~Laiden~

I wont ter know who of Samantha's friends meh attacked?

Gabon Corad

Lady Meryadeles, you feel insulted when someone does not call you by your last name, using the title 'Lady', and you think an orc, from the Red Skulls, should not feel insulted if a halfling boy insults his father?
Well.. With all my due respects, That makes no sense to me.

~ Johnny Lant

Ask Dusty aund Jonny, da hafer hud more dan enough chances ter shut his hole but he chose nut too..i warned him tree times nut ter insult meh fodder but yet he kept it up, Dusty Bottoms aund Jonny wos der aund saw da whole ting aund will tell yoo da hafer deserved whot he got. i wos patient wif him as he insulted meh and da orcs but saying en ting bout meh fodder is crossen da line dat i draw.

Gabon

Gabon, you are a big, evil orcy! Everything startet up when you said to me, that my mother must have been a human and my dad an orc. Then I contered and you growled and became angry. After a while of teasing you, dusty arrived and when you decided to attack me, Jonny barracked for you and Dusty even helped you to catch me and rimmed his dagger into my reverse! This is sooo nasty - I didn't even say a word to Dusty or Jonny but they decided to have their fun with bullying me!

~Barnald Platschfuss

I thought she meant that one of her friends was attacked by Gabon, so I warned her to be careful. It is still no excuse for what she did.

~Dain~Laiden~

More than Dain has been attacked by Samantha Meryadeles the last few weeks. I was attacked myself. She charged me for insulting her, and like she was a law herself, she sentensed me to death. She told me this was acording to the laws of Trollsbane? Luckily the godess does not kneel for Samantha, and sent me back. What I in fact did, was somthing she asks her friends to do. I used her name. Is that not what we all want? For everybody to treat us like our friends does? And if we do not, are we all alowed to go prosecute as we wish? And even carry out the punishment as and where we wish?

I don't know her that well except an occasional word or nod, but when I was severely hurt by an assassin using a poisonous blade, Lady Meryadeles, out of all the people in the tavern that day I told my story, was the only one to try to look for him in Trolls Bane.

Kaila

If he ever bothers you again, please tell me Kaila, and i will do my best to help. I think Meryadles sadly would use any excuse she could get to use her magic. Somtimes assassins other times on... Others. The fact that noone would help you, does not set an example on how people usually behave in Bane, I think, and hope. As I said, ask me if no others will help. I would be happy to.

~Aeridor Isthil~

This town has gone so horribly down-hill.

This small note was left unsigned.

Miss Meryadeles
As much as I respect your continued struggle against evil on this isle, I believe your title of magistrate does not give you power to sentence people to death no to actually attack them, regardless of their offense, only to jail or ban people. Perhaps you should keep to those powers in future.
Skaalib

4 choices or not the fact remains that you attacked a man with magic, who did not threaten your life, and as such, broke Trollsbane law. Had you at least tried to detain him, perhaps I would be a little more sympathetic but it seems that his 'punishment' was one of being sent to the cross, which I could not disagree more with.
To give to an example, were a child to come to me and torment me for my big nose, would I give him four warnings, and then proceed to stick a blade in his chest? I do not think so, and you are equally at fault as in my example, because the elf in question was just as helpless as the child in my example.
Skaalib

If I gave you four chances to quit as a magistrate, before I slayed you, would I be in my right to do so? If I ordered you to cut your hair, and gave you four chances to do so, would I be in my right to slay you if you refused? In that case show me the law wich gives me this right.
You broke a law when attacked me that day, and yet another when you slayed me. If you may not show Trollsbane the law wich allowed you to do this. And neither the law wich I broke, then I suggest we all follow the laws that do exist...
What does the law say about assaulters? What does the law say about murderers?

If she murdered you, shouldn't you be dead?

--Dantagon Marescot

That Cherga has mercy on me does her crime smaller?
