Temple of Tyr RP

[Steve]

A small number of able bodied commoners arrive to the Temple of the Just God, with two large packages, equal in size, of a fabric rolled and tied up.

Receiving this delivery is the knight errant, the Sword of Tyr, Henryk the Damaran, of house Urde, and champion of the Cause for a New Tymount. With an anxious yet pleased look upon his face, he directs the workers to unfurl one of the packages for inspection, right there, at the door to the Temple, outside, where any passers by would easily, as well, see.

What is unfurled is a banner, newly stitched, one that could well be carried by bearer into battle or into court, by a Faction that stood beneath, believing in it with a Faith to what it communicated in word, and as symbol.

And upon this banner was stitched in large sized, elegant font, a name easily read from a distance, that being the name, Tymount.

Some looking at the banner may make an observation that the "T" in the beginning of the Word was styled in a script, such a way, as to resemble a justice scale....

Within the Temple of the Just God, the foundations of Faith are given test...and novices are brought under greater guidance, receiving lessons of the Faith.

Some may notice that those who enter and leave, those receiving the Lessons, are faces known to be Tymountian, specifically of the Tymount Ten.

[Steve]

At the bidding of Abbot Sulnar of the Temple of Tyr in Baldur's Gate, the Sword of Tyr, Henryk the Damaran, Champion to the Cause of a New Tymount, arrives for a meeting, in company of Mayor Gillan of Tymount and three of the Tymount Ten, whom have shown interest to the Faith of the Just God: Lemri, Benla and Peter.

It would also be in this time, before the unusual meeting, that Henryk would present to Mayor Gillan and the Tyr's Three of the Tymount Ten, the two banners that he has funded to be sewn, recently delivered to the Temple.

A tiefling walks in. His heavy steps echo through the sanctum. It's almost an anachronism against his unimposing stature. He has short grey hair despite looking to be in his mid-20's, alabaster skin, and red iris set against black sclera, left one covered by a patch. The tools upon his person would betray his chosen profession as a bounty hunter: manacles and traps affixed to his belt, a chain slung diagonally across his chest. However, he favors not the dark, drab garb of his ilk. Instead, he wears blue and silver-grey, with minor accents of dark purple. A greastsword is contained within the scabbard harnessed to his back, beneath his cloak.

"How can I help?"


((Not sure how I missed all this over the past month. I'm on EST. During the week, I can get on most evenings. Weekends, sometimes earlier.))

[Steve]

"How can I help?"

Within the Temple, the visitor would be aware that the highest present authority is the Abbot Elric Sulnar, who is often available before the altar to the Just God, Fay and night.

The visitor may also notice group of three “students,” perhaps novices in the Faith, who may be called upon as “acolytes of Law,” should they be summoned or directed around the Temple.

It would be assumed there are also infrequent washwomen and temple workers keeping the inside of the hall orderly and in superior shape—one may assume there is a current investment being made to the Temple, so that it’s Works may be the most beneficial with the City...and beyond.

With the arrival of his visitor, who openly offers help undefined, one of the Temple may react with minor suspicions, considering the features of the visitor, his outfit and even his accent.

Though, undoubtedly, would the visitor seek out the Abbot or another titled servant to the Even Handed, the visitor would be given due course to properly present themselves, and their desires and where their draw comes to serve this closely regulated Faith.

A number of couriers are seen hired and dispatched from the Temple of the Just God toward the other Triadic temples and factions within Baldur’s Gate, as well a courier to the Ducal Palace.

Rumor has it that the only Temple knight capable of such a communication was only recently returned wounded, and for days was rumored to be convalescing with the care of the priests within.

[Mallore]

A letter delivered by a young messenger is brought to the Temple of the Just God - the intent is to bring it into the hands of a holy knight named Henryk. He would describe Henryk as a pious rigid man and likely realizes that probably applies to most with in the temple. The messenger, leaves as quickly as he can as soon as someone of knightly stature takes the message.

[Steve]

The Temple of Tyr appears to be more active that usual in the recent days. And number of men and women of different backgrounds and professions may be seen entering and exciting the Temple.

[Steve]

During these days, the Sword of Tyr, Henryk of house Urde, Champion of the Cause for a New Tymount, makes effort to lead the few Acolytes of Law to the Temple of Tyr, in drill and exercise, within the Gate.

Henryk offers to the Acolytes insight into areas within the Gate best suited for battle, those that can be blockaded, places in which safety for the Weak is more assured, should any...unfortunate occurrences manifest.

It is, by any observation, acts and education in preparation. To what specific end, this Troop under Tyr does not say aloud.

Later, Henryk can be seen, with or without the Acolytes of Law in tow, entering the public accessways to the sewers below the East District. His observable countenance would best be described as equally concerned and inquisitive—appearing confident and with experience to be entering the "city" underneath, yet with an anticipatory look on whether he will find what he appears to seek....

[Steve]

Within the Temple, Henryk the Damaran, the Sword of Try within the New Church of the Maimed One, is heard on numerous occasion, speaking a high praise to the one he refers to as "friend Eth," who many have learned now via Henryk's praise, has donated to the Acolytes of Law, weapons forged of Alchemical Silver, as a first round of empowering the Tymount Ten, to further the Cause for a New Tymount...as well, benefit the most recent and pressing of matters, that being the War that stretches from the north, the Winding Water lands, down toward the Gate itself, that being exactly where Henryk and the Acolytes, at least within Baldur's Gate, to actively enact drills, as in preparation for battle.

That which the one named Eth are recorded into the Temple roster of Resources, to benefit all those that shall carry Faith in the Just God, Tyr, and serve to protect those weakest and without Justice.

Mi-Le, a monk of the Old Order and the Steward of the Order of Lions, approaches the Abbot of the Temple of Tyr and signs the following letter in his presence:

I, Mi-Le, in my capacity as Steward of the Order of Lions and Pathfinder Hall, give Pathfinder Hall to the temple of Ilmater for the purpose of sheltering homeless orphans and refugees, with the understanding that Father Marcus of the church of Ilmater has agreed to dismantle the martial training room in Pathfinder Hall and not allow any martial training to occur within Pathfinder Hall. I have posted my intention to give away Pathfinder Hall and received no objection from other members of the Order of Lions.

May all beings be free from suffering. May all beings find a peaceful place.

Signed in the presence of the Abbot of the Temple of Tyr in Baldur's Gate in 1355 DR:

The Sword of Tyr, Henryk the Damaran, invited a traveling faithbearer to the Morninglord to take shelter within the Temple of the Just God in Baldur's Gate, while they rested between stops along their journey. The armored cleric was seen entering the Temple as the evening took hold, while the Sword of Tyr left the traveler to hospitality of the temple keepers for now—Henryk continued on his earlier path toward the Palace District, where he often spends time ingratiating himself into the Court, on behalf of the Tymountians and the Cause for a New Tymount.

[Steve]

Returning to the Temple of the Just God after many days errant, the Sword of Tyr, Henryk the Damaran, arrives carrying a large satchel slung across one shoulder. He sets down at the foot of the altar to Tyr this satchel, and speaks a prayer of thankfulness aloud, mentioning directly to his Lord, again, the name of "friend Eth," who has delivered as was his word, weapons that should aid the Tymount Ten of Tyr in their training and actions, should their Cause do bring them in direct contact with such beasts that only suffer true wounds when alchemical silver is employed.

Thus, Henryk delivers the gift unto those serving under the Even Handed's dogma, within the Temple dedicated to him, within Baldur's Gate.

For some months now, Henryk the Damaran, the Sword of Tyr, kept a regular vigilant watch within the walls of Baldur's Gate, at times accompanied by three of the Tymount Ten, of whom have pledged service and submission to lessons of the Temple of Tyr.

After so much time passed, in this activity under leave given by the Dukes to keep watch during and after the battles held in the north, and now with the forces returned to the Gate under success, the habit or pattern of the Vigilant Watch seems to cease, in this first Tenday of Nightal.

In the following days, Henryk is busy within the Temple, preparations seem to be being made, provisions acquired and many a scroll drafted.

[Feldran Konstadt]

A paladin from Neverwinter enters the temple, he presents himself as Feldran Konstadt, Paladin of The Just.

After saying his prayers at the altar he asks for guidance and advice to the local priests and knights, seeking help in his mission to make Baldur's Gate turn away completely from worshipers of Dark Gods, Zhentarims and Thayans.

"We need to rediscover our zeal and dedication, brothers and sisters. The more we linger, the more such individuals can spread their grasp on this land." says the paladin.
