What Cradh said. As an observation from my side i want to add that this late discussion is nothing to worry about. If NPCs are metagamed then the entire situation players bring forth through that will just be ignored. Because it would be unfair to the other players otherwise.

Apart from that its an issiue with player awarenes. If someone does something like this it is my experience that a friendly reminder about the invalidity of the roleplay will prompt them to think and ask clarification from a DM. That helps them understand the rules and fairly affect the setting. :)

Word leaks out that an army of grappling warriors and teleporting wizards marches from the surface to sshamath.

////// one last OOC if you would be so kind.

I would like to apologize for my above posts, both to Servin in a personal attack, and to the entire server for having to see such an outburst.

This is a game and is meant above all else to bring fun and enjoyment in its play.

I seemed to forget that point and got caught up with a temper that boiled over.

I do apologize for that to all of you.

I will be, in the best interest of all of you .. but more importantly ... to myself be taking a break from the game and forums for a while. When I get to where i can once again take things like this in stride and simply shrug them off, i may come back again.

Until then everyone ... ENJOY!

Rumors begin to spread through Sshamath that Escherichia is looking quite frustrated. After an unauthorized tour of the school was given to Qu'ellar Dev'lin by the former member of the school that included unauthorized magic/rituals, Escherichia Dev'lin was dismissed from the school of necromancy and is no longer allowed access to the school's resources.

Those brave souls who decide to investigate the rumors will not find Phar's head in the described location. Rather, they would come across a large 5x5 foot drawing of House Dev'lins insignia, with excrement used as paint.

Qilintha pauses on her journey out of the city, amused more than anything with the unrefined response from bregan d'aerthe.

*A strange sentiment comes over Dilarra. Memories of battles of the past. Forces of Dabel'kith soldiers fighting with forces of Zau'afin soldiers, all in narrow tunnels. And yet something else stirs. A task unfinished. A surface elf who requires a debt to be paid. Time moves forward, but some things do not change.*

your gates of sparkling jewels,
and all your walls of precious stones.

Early in the cycle, Phar, an agent of Bregan D'aerthe was seen entering the Stone Stave. His visit there was short, lasting no more than a quarter of an hour, and a few report that he left with a small smirk on his lips.

A headless kobold hangs from one of the walls at West of Verallas, on closer inspection you would see a name carved into its chest, it reads : "Nessa"..

Later that same cycle, the kobold's body now appears to hold new writing carved with delicate precision just below the the original inscription:

N'essa*
neitar
zho'amine
**

Notes:
* Those who viewed the original inscription might notice an accent mark has added changing Nessa to N'essa

** Drowic tr: "N'essa never forgets."

The female drow previously escorting a frail looking male drow around is more frequently seen escorting Phar around the city of Sshamath and sometimes into the tunnels. She treats him with the same respect and obedience as she did the frail drow. Although appearing to be moving more stiffly in the current cycle, she continues to keep the path in front of Phar clear and make sure that noone come too close without his express permission.

The guards in Verallas Passage would have been able to hear Ril'vyr Dev'lin talk to another fellow Dev'lin about how he got two new fingers for his collection yesterday, Wirg and some faern woman.. He mentioned as well that taking Phars finger again would be a waste of time..
