Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)

[Zeldor]

Huh, some people here are trying to break deals or NAPs without even trying to put some storytelling. I hope that are just some misunderstandings and people got focused on sunny weekend and will explain everything.

Many nations have approached mighty Lamasus, with offers of trade and alliance. With our homelands conquered, she did of course welcome these envoys, and listen to their pleas.

Lamasus had made no decisions yet, but she has sent return envoys to those nations. The original envoys, of course, were turned to stone when they accidentally looked at her. You guys should really put blindfolds on your envoys in the future.

It might not be that surprising if both took awake combat pretenders and so have been able to expand very quickly. After that, there is always chance with who your neighbours are, where they focus their expansion and whether they are rushed, which can often leave more indy provinces to snap up easily for even relatively weak nations.

I don't know how many people actually saw this, so I'm posting it again. Please don't PM me regarding diplomacy anymore as I'm not really there.

Think New Jomon might need to be set to AI since they have staled the last two turns, with another one looking like it's on the way in the next hour or so. They also seem to be bottom of every graph and going nowhere fast in general, so the chances of finding a sub for them at this stage are practically zero.

'Incabulos' is controlling them, and he/she is also currently staling in one other game that I know of (CarCrash). So it's a general AWOL thing and not just this game.

We're losing players damn fast here, that's what? 6 nation so far and it's only turn 14.

I think it's Baalz's curse.

*sigh* I beg. I plead. "Please don't join this game unless you can *at least* line up a sub if you can't play". I try my best to keep the flow going so nobody's got an excuse for losing interest. I think my next game is going to be by invite or first hand vouching only. :/ Hopefully the very helpful DC will be available to switch yet another player AI...

[switching from annoyed admin voice to creepy demon voice]

The rebel Kalaisian monkeys have been dealt with. How they hid their impudence, scurrying up a mountain and finding some fey spirits there to quietly worship hoping that word of their escape would not reach the demon lords of Lanka. Foolish monkeys. The insects of the jungles give us millions of eyes and the mountain spirits are frail protection from my hunger. As soon as a clear location of this false capital was determined a warband was assembled. These foolish monkeys would have the freedom from Lanka rule they desired, but it would be the freedom of the grave. Or to be more precise the freedom of the scrap pit after the feast, for who would dig a grave for these lesser beings?

Descending on their enclave it became apparent that the foolish monkeys had already aroused the wrath of another nation, for Arga Dis also hungered for their blood. With a howl of rage the hoard of demons charged day and night untiringly to the Kalaisian sacred mountain lest discipline be administered by other hands. These rebel monkeys were mine and I would feast. Waves of undead made short work of the walls of their city, then waves of demons swarmed over the beleaguered defenders - overwhelming them quickly despite the frantic action of their wizards and the ensuing brutal barrage. The fury of the demon warband could not be slowed.

The great feast was quickly assembled as servants and children were dragged out and piled onto the still warm bodies of the fallen warriors and made to watch as they were eaten one at a time.

I suffer no desertion from my fold, let none forget this lesson.

-The House of Enoch-

Enoch, the King of the Fomorians, notable for his one eye which can kill anyone it looks upon. It is said that he gained this power as a child when watching his father's druids preparing poisonous spells, the fumes of which rose into his eye.
He is the ruler of the plagued and cursed lands where death resides now.
One legend tells it that Enoch, the Pernicious Eye, is fated to lift the curse that harrows the fomorian people ever since the Partholan invasion.
He would lead the people to distant shores, where they would reign for thousands of years.

And so it was prophesided in the book of Buarainech, the great King and sage of the old, the last untainted Fomorian potentate.

"And the Kings of the past, the guardians of the realm of watery dead, shall return to the dark and stormy ocean realm of the drowened dead and claim it as their own again. On this journey, the one named Enoch, the Pernicious Eye, shall deliver bliss to the unblessed, and lead them to distant shored where they would reign for another ten thousand years, before the plague and gale befalls them again as it is written in the stars."
