Ooo. The trials. Four of the trials have been held. Court martials, really. Captain Zoey was found innocent of all charges. Commander Nazeera was found guilty of assault and battery, and conduct unbecoming an officer. She was demoted to Centurion, and conscription to the military for another four years. Sentry Gukevon was found guilty of conduct unbecoming a soldier, and sentences to another four years conscription in the military. Centurion Kendra was found guilty of conduct unbecoming, assualt and battery, and rape. Her rank was reduced to Sentry, and she will be conscripted to the military for another four years. This is all well and good, but the question is, WHY? Have the Shamibelians not raped our women and battered them as well? And why are they being tried by a half-shamibelian neo-noble anyway?
The leaders are changing. Again. The Clan Council has appointed Lord Entoro Lapis as the Griffon Regent for a term of three weeks, until next they meet again, when they have had more time to discuss things. Didn't they have two years as it was? Are they not looking ahead? And really. A Neo-noble running a clan? People are talking even louder. What makes nobles so different from the rest of us then? Why is their blood considered so special? Neo-nobles can clearly sit on thrones....they are already Regents and Viceroys, and their blood is not noble. There is nothing special about them....
Lord Proxy Taleo was named the new Viceroy, with Atreides leaving the post. This is causing mixed reaction among the people. Some dislike it. Some really hate it. Not even the Bears like it, really. Time will tell what happens to this one.
November Birthdays! 3 -- Isik 7 -- Celina 8 -- Aurora 9 -- Ortense 9 -- Orus 11 -- Favianna 14 -- Cyrus 14 -- Zeezee 18 -- Yathro 19 -- Baragar 24 -- Lilana 25 -- Nivaro 27 -- Lahsette
Lord Proxy Taleo has made a judgement about Mes Garra. Because of all the problems she has caused, the once General will be sent to the front to fight. Forever. How ever long she may survive, that is.
It seems that no one is pleased with the way Lord Regent Judanarius has handled things. He was just plain insulting in his holier-than-thou speech in the eyes of most. Perhaps he forgets the mistakes he has made in the past, or that it is his brother who allowed him to serve in this position. At any rate, he is not on the top of anyone's list right now. Well...not unless it is their not-so-loved list.
Are you a noble who has been getting social hits because the commoners don't like you working? Check out 'news noble vocations'. This has a list of appropriate vocations and hobbies for nobles. All nobles please read it.
Crafters, this is for you! Rachel is starting a project that will allow you to craft an ad on your own, 3" X 4" in size, and saved in .gif format, written to look like a newspaper classified. Send it to her at rachel@legendary.org.
We all need to be more careful with our alt conflicts. You should not have more than one alt attending a social event, even if they aren't there at the same time. The exception to this is, of course, the Festival. You can have alts at the festival grounds, as long as they are not attending or competing in the same events. (IE...one can be at/in the Battle Royale while the other is at/in a sewing contest.)
Please take a look at the Gold Dragon section on the Ikonboard. Firgus' player has put up a poll in regards to the website he is writing for us. He is making the mistake of asking for our input, so lets give it to him! :)
Nivaro made a lovely list of all the teachers for the Academy. Unfortunately, he has misplaced it. If you talked with him about being a teacher there for any subject, please do drop him an @mail.
For those interested in poking fun and having a good time, Baristano is running a pregnancy pool. Place your bets on who will get pregnant first....Aurora or Winia....to give Throg another grandchild.
And, last, but not least, everyone make sure to thank Jalil and Jeanne when you get a chance. They worked really hard to get things back up and working for us. Send lots of love!
