I gotta say Kirin no like paper work.. anywho I figured I might as well come out of hybernation and write up some of the stuff Kirins been doing.. so here it goes with numero uno.. the most recent. Today it was brought to my attention by one Monica (insert last name I dun remember here.. she's preggy) that a slaver had been dwelling within the sanctified walls of the city of Drache. After a very brief confrontation the coward made quick his attempt at escape, but denied was he by the aid of an outsider by the name of Toliver. Agreeing to be interviewed at your convenience Toliver stands by (signature of Toliver here) to tell the truth under the fair rule and law of Drache by order of the crown. The individual in question goes by Jim Coulter, he was terrified and through the use of divinations he was put at ease so information could be extracted from him without harm to his person. The information gathered is that he owns a silver mine not far from the city, recommend writs to the mine be confescated for the benafit of the city after dealing with the criminal in question. He owned an orc, three drow, and four humans as slave labor to work the mines. Monica acquired the slaves and has them in safety. I have no recommendation on the slaves other than they will only perish being exposed to society in their state, they need nourishment and education. He became rather uncooprative after the spell duration of the calm person had worn off.. claiming he knew nothing.. But the information had already been gathered from both Monica and Toliver. Mr. Coulter only confirmed what they had to say before becoming mute. I leave judgement to the crown and the divine wrath that awaits him, the scales of justice tilt ill against his favor and retribution is nigh for him. Ever the loyal servant of the Crown and speaker of His word. Kirin Arnise. Armsmen of the Royal Guard of Arangoth.

I write this report as a pre-emptive attempt at capturing Brook, also known as Antonio. A vampire and a local who though means well is in violation of the law and repeatedly badgers myself or other guardsmen, and even the magistrates of the city. She has elluded me thrice now by simply vanishing or somehow ignoring me completley. Be warned for she appears to be immune to even the might of the blessed day star. (In other words she cheating.) I call upon the loyal guard of the city, and request a hunt for this creature Brook. She has repeatedly abused the mercy I have graced her with, more than once has she left the city as an exile... only to return the next night. The time for mercy is past as she desires no redemption, rather she has embraced the taint that consumes her and now she must be purged. More than one guard.. four by my counting claim to have engaged her only to be ignored or somehow she vanishes into thin air (cheeeaaaatin!). It is with this report and letter I request advice from higher authority. What is the will of the magistratum or commanders of the guard? If no response is given I shall do as the law dictates and attempt with greater ferver to turn her to dust and be rid of her. Ever the loyal servant of the Crown and wielder of His justice. Kirin Arnise. Royal Guard of Arangoth okidoki.. just as an ooc note.. she's a cheat.. and has been getting away with it.. the mun is nice enough which is why I think banning may be pushing it.. but definately we need to get rid of the char antonio/brook.. maybe a PM chat by the ops would change her mind about making cheatish chars.. and it's not even the cheating, she doesn't want her char to die, which I understand which is why i've been relunctant to do it myself.. so for that I apologize. Anywho.. take it easy yall.

(this is kinda SLish.. but hey anyones welcome.. and it'd be a guard thing to do to report his shat being stolen. I write this to report the loss of.. my equipment. It has been stolen and the theft is confirmed from dealing with the thief directly, Foede (one of the mighty Scarbie's chars). I have been given the name of the one responsible for putting this Foede up to the job. She goes by the name of Eleanor and it is my request that I be granted temporary equipment until this matter can be resolved. Eleanor, the individual in question and the one accused with the illegal acquisition of my property lives in the city, she has an estate located... (has a map drawn to show where it is since he's been shown). I will go tomorrow and confront this Eleanor if I am able, but if things go sour.. or more realistically if she's not there I may need assistance. The location is given here so in case I die my remains can be found and a guilty party can hopefully be punished. With blessings of the blind just lord and always the servant of the Crown.

This vampire's name is Brook. As i was currently busy speaking with another i kept watch on the vampire until such time as Jinnai Halfmoor and another known hunter (desc given of Blayze) entered the establishment. They noted a vampire was present but were unsure which one from the list. AS Jinnai tried to recall who it might be the other hunter called me over and asked pointedly where it was. I obliged by pointing out Brook as i had no wish to tangle with her after the last time she tried to kill me. Once it was ascertained who she was both hunters sprang into action and a Vorfon (desc of Jolen given)who was unaware she had committed a crime tried to aid her. Once the citizen was informed she had indeed committed a crime and was wanted he backed off. The vampire then headed outside after a light spell of my own had gone off inside to stop her shadows from being used. Once outside the hunters rejoined the chase on Brook and i fired off another pair of light spells which seemed only to blind Brook for a moment and to stop her use of shadows. She yelled something about bodies in the trees and that they were not from her doings. After trying once again to shoot the vampire down and her successful dodges of the bolts from crossbows a gentleman by the name of Sairion joined the battle to help the vampire escape. I had seen the vampire speaking quietly with the Vorfon in question inside the Inn and cannot be sure she did not somehow tamper with his mind to have him help her as once he was cuffed after trying to attack me he ceased his behavior and remained docile all the way to the cells. The vampire did manage to escape the hunters and in the fray i received a crossbow bolt to the ribs as well as the claw across my foot. Two other persons came to the aid of the hunters and myself and only one is known to me while the other is not. The one unknown to me is as follows: (desc given of Dresqimar) and the other is one Tespin Agrippanilla Anterricca-Tivraus. At this time the prisoner named Sairion (desc given as well) resides in the cells awaiting trial.

She admitted doing so but claimed that he had originally sought to argue and fight with her. Lucien brought the man under control but that her beliefs she was raised with brought her to stab him in the back because none are left standing but the victor in her lands. I allowed the Tespin to go with a warning that such was not the way in Drache or Arangoth. As Marcus declined to press charges this is all the reprimand i believe Tespin Mickaela to need at this time.

Apparently Marcus had started a fight with one Mickaela then turned subordinate when Lucien stepped in and no longer was fighting when a female name Mickaela (desc given) stabbed him in the back with a comment about warriors dying in battle. She then ran off into the woods. A gentleman named Erdrick Kane (desc given) arrived saying he had sensed a need for himself ( a healer) and had used what he was able to as far as healing Marcus. witnesses corroborated Marcus claim that he started the combat but had desisted when he was stabbed. Witnesses include Claudia_Tanner (desc given) and Lucien ChasingFire (desc given). I additionally did more healing on Marcus and the gentleman will live though impaired. Marcus declines to press charges and I am still seeking Tespin Mickaela to hear her side of events to decide if arrest is warranted or not. This seems to be unusual for Tespin Mickaela so until i speak with her i recommend caution and possible arrest if she shows further violent tendencies.

This is kind of a SL thing but it was a big event and ended up getting a lot of NPC's involved on sighting some things.. so I figured I'd post it for your review here. I think any are welcome who want to join in the fun however you'll have to ask the great Scar. So without further adoo-doo here is my poo-poo. Holy church, magistratum, and council of the guard. I wriite thee to report a most dire situation that seems to be getting worse. I have not reported until now that my dwelling outside the city was robbed, for it was of little consequence and bothering the other guard with such a petty issue would not be looked well upon. In my attempts however to retrieve my equipment I have tracked the thief herself to this city. Who has sold an item that belonged to me that I was unaware of that was simply in my house. A simple painting that somehow acts as an interdimensional gateway. I know not how nor do I care but it has been used to summon forth demons and powerful evil entities that ravaged an apartment here in town. Through investigation a powerful demon of great evil and strength did appear before me. Shaking the building to its foundation. (giving a brief description to a Balor) A large battle ensued leading eventually to the city streets where only through true faith was the mighty beast vanquished and banished to the abyss whence it came. Mortally wounded I fell, rescued by a demon hunter who has been assisting me since, now I am in the guardhouse writing on a bunk, tending to my wounds which I had thought should surely end my life. The beast who's name I couldn't get from it hardly had a scratch on it, a blessed swing perhaps that it finally gave up and left. With that stated. I advice caution and be on the look out for Merin Bithsbane, demon hunter and associate to the new owner of this dimensional gateway. And one Eleanor, an instructor I believe at the university, there is evidence to support they have fled the city. I shall take up the quest to find them, though I wouldn't have the faintest where to begin. I do ask for a temporary leave of absence that I may go and acquire some equipment and hunt the theives. Always the loyal servant of the Royal Guard and the Just Hammer of His Mercy. Arms Sergeant Kirin Arnise. OK with that shpealio out of the way I just wanted to clerify a few things. This is just some SL stuff Scar and I are doing with a couple of others I think.. anyone I THINK can join in but they'd have to pester Scar.. she's the brain.. This was just mostly fun info since the mailing list is just getting back up and running and I never recieve mail anyway =D so I figiured I'd send some WHEE! thanks for your time folks.. byeeeee!

You are now entering a world of text and electrons. You are entering.. the email zone. *cues the music* Hail magistrates and commanders of the guard. I write this report with good will that blood shed was averted this night (Insert date here) in the dangerous walls of the infamous Black Dragon Inn. I have observed on multiple occasion an individual who claims he is a samurai of some unknown code of honor he calls.. Basheedo (bushido, I'm misspelling it on purpose.. bite.. me.. Wolfram =D ) This Kageshin as he calls himself (artistic depiction via someone at the guardhouse attatched) wears a simple set of robes and carries a large curved blade of excellent make, he is also unpredictable and dangerous to an extreme I had not guessed until tonight. Though he was being pestered by a mischevious woman he took to heart her antics and did assault her. First with foul magic, combining lightning and fire as one he was attempting to cause her fear and make her flee. However this was folly as we all know that the local citizenry are all too familiar with such things.. sad as it is to admit. After a few more hostile exchange of words I stepped in to resolve the matter peacefully as I have done in countless situations before to bring peace without violance. Charging the woman, Kageshin decided to turn his attention on me as I had hoped when I ordered him to cease his criminal activity. Finally he drew his weapon upon me. Be thou warned those who confront this dangerous man, the weapon he carries is highly enchanted and had flames licking its surface. Rather than come to blows I stayed my ground and kept my weapon sheathed. After some diplomacy (*possibly natural 20's on my diplomacy rolls*) the situation cooled, sheathing his weapon he agreed to be at ease. Regretably I was called away on duty before he left, I do pray he caused no more ill within the city this night. Dangerous though he is and content to listen to authority he HARDLY is... there is little cause for alarm. I placed no one under arrest and displayed the mercy of the crown that others would follow the example. I pray that no further situations occur with this individual. Loyal servant of His Mercy and and Will and Sergeant of the Royal Guard of fair Drache. Sergeant Kirin Arnise. OK that said.. I WINKBAYE!

Message-ID: What a fricken night. Smiting.. shmoozing.. and smiting some more. Anyways this is probably my last post while in the states, just wanted to let you guys who actually take the time to read my rants.. Thank you.. I appreciate each of you and all of your RP.. Your good people for a bunch of text collections =D without further poop.. or.. adoodoo or whatever.. this is the post.. Tidings and well wishes to the magistrates and my fellow guardsmen of the fair city of Drache. Yet again I sit at my desk writing a report that ironically enough involves a battle within the proximity of the Black Dragon district. While sitting inside the inn a random zombie stumbled inside somehow, and randomly assailed a citizen who managed to fend it off, running it through while I called upon the wrath of holy Tyr, that the soul of this individual may find peace in that its body is no longer ravaging the lands. Shrugging it off as an isolated event I made the mistake of growing complacent until a few hours later as I exited the Inn of the Black Dragon on my off day I was met with an unholy squad sized element of the undead. 8 to be exact. With a sense of urgency I returned inside and gave the warning, I know not why the zombies were shambling toward the Inn.. But Dulcina immediately placed the building under lock down and some of the patrons took up arms and fortified positions inside the building to repell the attackers should the battle that would ensue outside go sour. A few brave but foolish individuals took off outside, seeking glory in vain with short swords and daggers to fend off skeletal and rotted corpses that walk. I write this also as a warning that when the undead come.... have a mace.. a stick.. something blunt and heavy on hand.. NOT a blade.. less it be an axe that can cleave the bone, I write this as a cleric trained in the art of breaking the undead to dust!!!! This shall serve as a warning.. and I have forseen this to be a second coming of a possible mist war. You have been warned. Back to the battle at hand I met the four of the 8 undead in battle, opening with a blast of holy light and energy to blind and weaken the undead, it is my theory that they are divinely influenced, for they were truely powerful for simple zombies, my turning attempt did little more than phase them. An individual fighting with a longsword named Lazarus was hard pressed to stay them off. another, a female whore of the red lantarn district using a pan and alchemist fire managed to destroy the undead with myself, a ranger named Orion, and another guardsmen. Merin Bithsbane. Strangely guardsmen Bithsbane disappeared before the battle could come anywhere close to completion, Orion after the initial fight was taken, by a shadow into the alley ways.. After questioning Orion, it is my recommendation that Bithsbane be brought in for questioning, but not with intent for arrest, Orion is not a moral individual and there may be a logical explaination for this, we must not jump to conclusions but I request writs and warrents to speak with or apprehend if necessary one Merin Bithsbane. I close this report with no knowledge as to where the undead came from. There is something or someone raising them however, that much is appearant, a voice echoed from the forest beyond the roiling mists and the power of the undead does not breath arcane, these were complex undead during my examinations and investigations. But I shall leave it to the wiser magistratum and priests of the city and their judgement. With warning and prayer I send this report forward. May it be carried on the wings of angels and spoken via their trumpets so that it may be swift to your desks and heard loud and clear. Always the loyal arms sergeant of the royal guard of Arangoth and the embodiment of His will. Kirin Arnise. ALRIGHT MUCKERS... done.. I do bid you all well.. and hope that I'll see you all soon, give me two weeks.. or one month.. anywho.. Bye bye folks.
