Character of the Season
Frail in body but dangerously quick of mind, Nikandr is the sort of character who proves that curiosity can be just as perilous as any weapon. A necromancer, inventor, and problem-solver with more ambition than self-preservation, Niki approaches the world like a puzzle box begging to be opened, even when what’s inside has teeth. Blunt, dry-witted, fiercely independent, and carrying a history best left partially buried, he has a knack for making even failure feel fascinating. Whether he’s raising the dead, moving across Caido to King's End, or experiencing a hangover for the first time, Nikandr brings a wonderfully strange spark to Caido, and we can’t wait to see what trouble his brilliant mind wanders into next.
Congratulations, Niki!

It had been a while since Remi had been to the Sidhe village, but with Ianto as his guide, he made it easily enough. With a pre-written note, the alchemist adds to the notice board before returning back to his and Ronin's camp.
Dust Storms
Ronin and I will be trying to go through the storms to the West. Should any Fae want to come, meet us in two days time at noon near the most westerly edge of the Stonesong.

Assistance setting up an embassy in the Sea of Branches would be appreciated! When it is complete, Fae and non-Fae will be able to visit for information and assistance relating to each other.
It requires some construction and maintenance, and some furniture needs to be moved.
You don't know me an' i don't know you. But I run a caravan that goes all the way from Hak Etme down to the Feverlands. Only there's some big skeletal cunt in the sands up here that won't let my damn wagon leave.
Whoever comes up here and kills this bag of bones can have any item they want from my store.
OOC: This notice will serve as IC justification for an upcoming KQ!
Near the sunshine pools in Hak Etme you will find a well of starlight coming out of the ground. Beneath it is the remaining seasonal deity, Ghilio. He seems like the sort that does not like to be bothered, so leave him alone if you can.
He does require water though. This can be poured down the well without needing to go beneath the ground and bother him.

I am sad to announce that I will be stepping down as your leader, effective immediately.
For some time now I've struggled to reconcile the demands of my conscience with those of my position. I believed that my purpose was to keep the Greatwood safe through an unwanted war -- that, no matter how much I disagreed with the war itself, I could lead our people through it by focusing on our defenses and not on striking out against the enemy.
However, I can no longer count myself as a follower of the Old Gods as they call for the destruction of an entire race of people based only upon their choice of god. The Ascended have harmed us, yes, and I still support the idea of bringing the specific individuals who made that attack to justice -- but to eliminate the Ascended as a whole is not justice, and I cannot be party to it.
Our supposed allies in Stormbreak have used our home as a staging ground for murderous attacks on our neighbors. They would draft us into a war created solely by their hatred and prejudice. If I cannot resist their efforts -- and I have tried -- then the least I can do is refuse to have my name appended to them.
I will leave Sidhe Village shortly and move to the Wilds. Whether you agree with me or not, I would ask that you do not look for me.
It's been a year since the end of the war. Many things had to be rebuilt. Many of us have lost things. I would like to help rebuild something. I would like to start a guild that has the goal to build things. With a large port in the vicinity as well as the necessary materials, the Grounds are excellent for it. Also, experienced ship drivers or shipbuilders as well as people for the security of the goods are needed. The grounds need people like you. Does the whole thing appeal to you? Then please send me a raven or come personally.
Frey and I would like to invite all of you to a masquerade at Wrenzaok's Refuge. It will be held in the middle of Deepfrost with more information to follow as we get closer to the event. We look forward to seeing you there.

Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3
Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like.
I know that you have not had it easy, just like other regions. I would like to offer you my hand in peace and ask for your help. The grounders have lost a lot in the last year. I know that many of you do not care. But I would like to reach a time of peace and would be happy if you support us. I would like to restore the town hall which was badly damaged by the attack. I ask for your help
Dust off your boots and mark your calendars — a rip-roarin’ rodeo is ridin’ into King’s End during LongHeat! There’ll be thrillin’ mounted events, rowdy contests, and a whole herd of vendors slingin’ goods from sunup to sundown. Bring your grit, your appetite, and your best hat — it’s gonna be a wild one!
LOOKIN’ FOR A FEW GOOD RIDES!
If you’ve got a mythical shift and wouldn’t mind playin’ the part of a bull in the ring — Colt’s lookin’ to wrangle ya. Swing by or send word her way if you’re willin’ to give the crowd a real show!
OOC note: At some point in LongHeat we'll be hosting a rodeo mini event/threads, with the main event being different characters in mythical shifts acting as bulls, and different characters trying to ride them for 8 seconds. It's 5 MP to enter as a bull rider, winner gets the pot of MP and maybe a belt buckle with +1 luck if Colt can acquire and finish her quest in time :)
DM Blu for more info and open to any and all ideas to make this fun, and please connect with Colt if you're interested in being a bull, or anything else!
Received a Gilded Market wig from Remi that resembles her usual hair and is enchanted to stay on better than most wigs | has a reverse centaur tattoo on her left hand with the legs going down her pointer and middle fingers that looks like this.
Get out your yee-haw and head to Deadiron Ranch in King’s End this Longheat for a good old-fashioned rodeo. There’ll be heart-poundin’ mounted events, no-holds-barred contests, and vendors lined up all day hawkin’ wares ‘til the sun finally dips. Bring your hat and come hungry, there’s no shortage of trouble to get into.
Riders brave enough to chase the prize, and bulls a little outside the usual, are welcome. If you’re thinkin’ of doin’ more than watchin’, get in touch with Colt Winchester and throw your name in the ring.

For those displaced by Stormbreak's fall, and others who may wish for a place to land: if you're willing to respect the land and the people around you, you're welcome here. We seek to provide shelter and a home for those in need of it.
