En Dharasha Everae RP thread

[Maverick 40]

// We have to wait for Luna, please be patient. Let's keep this open thread for IC role-play and let's use the guild page for OOC troubleshooting if we can. Thanks for your patience.

[Solarina]

* solarina prepares her healing supplies, bandages, salves, ointments and the like for the long trek north. She walks with a heavy limp an injury her pride will only allow to heal through natural means, from her time away spent in the dalelands, dagger dale to be precise fighting orcs there. She bears the pain well never talking about it except to refuse any magical healing offered to her, for this injury was personal and one rightfully earned, the damage if any left behind a mark of duty *

En Dharasha Everae

[Solarina]

// remove my access sola isn't welcome as she follows torm. Rather disappointing as everyone knew her deity before she joined but oh well. Not going to be a second class priestess in guild because of deity.


* Solarina after being informed she will be but a second class priesttess among her other kin priestess among the group due to whom she worships, quietly packs away her things in the dead of night and departs for location unknown, saying not a word *

* as she departs she says to herself *

" if my choice of deity means I am but second class and not equal to my fellow priests and priestess then my service is not needed, nor is it worth spilling my blood, giving my tears, breaking my sweat for those who would not accept me as I am. Yes my god is is different but I also pay homage to the elven gods and goddesses. If I am to be apart then so be it, ronin it is for me. I shall find my place in the world in due time. "

[mrm3ntalist]

* Mendel anticipating that it is time to leave Gullykin for their new camp to the north, buys a large quantity of wine. Belarious helps him carry them to the camp but now faces another problem. How is he going to carry them to the all the way to Boaresky Bridge. Seeing that everyone has already made their packs he stashes some bottles in Drals and Laisrens packs. For a moment he thought of putting some bottles in Tans pack as well but if that monk find out there will be but empty bottles in the end.

[Maverick 40]

Laisren hears word of Solarina's return and her concerns. As he is already camped north with the forward scouts of Dharasha, he hands a parchment to a trusted scout and bids them find Solarina.

"Solarina,

I am glad to hear of your return and I am sorry to hear of your concerns. As we are seeking a return to our beginnings and foundation within our elven heritage, our clergy is meant to represent these intentions. The founding Cleric of our Order Lutihien of Hanali and her partner Lady Ele of Seheine have accepted one into their ranks already, the Druid Dralzar. Alas they, and only they, are meant to choose this election.

None here are treated as second class but our Faernsoura, the followers of artful faith, are our spiritual guides in our journeys. This does not mean you can not have your say, you are free to promote your beliefs, but yes, they will not be given the authority of the Faernsoura. You may petition them if you feel so strongly. All hear may worship as they feel fit.

Regardless, we seek to serve and protect all of our people. None are considered second class, for all those here would make the ultimate sacrifice for their kin. That is the heart of what we are, our spiritual journey back to our roots is simply our vehicle to salvation but if we do not support one another than we shall never make it to our destination.

You may petition the Faernsoura, this is your right.

Fair Winds may your god Torm keep you safe,

Laisren"

En Dharasha Everae

"The Destiny of the People"

Purpose: We the elves of En Dharasha Everae were born of the soul purpose to defend our brethren from all threats, both from without and from within. We seek to live in harmony with our kin, striving to achieve purity of the body and spirit.

It being our first oath to defend the innocent and maintain the true elven way of life, we will do so at expense of our own lives. Each elf whom joins us must make this oath of their own accord but once they have passed the trial of kinship, they will stand as an equal among many, each bringing strength to us all.

Roster:

Laisren Ua Tiernan (Maverick 40/ Laisren)

Base Camp: Gullykin, soon to be moved to the Bridge Fort of Boreskyr

Organization:

Ahrn'Kerym (One who wields the sword)
This is our branch of armed and trained elves.
They are led by the Villi(Wolf), who is appointed by the Akh'Aegis and responsible for the training and implementing of military strategy.

Current Villi: Mendel

Akh'Aegis (Duty of Protection)
This is our elected political/secular leadership (ambassadors and members of council)
At the head are two pro-consul, or first among members , who are responsible for the formation of military strategy, maintaining of diplomatic relations, and the safety of the community.

Current Pro-Consul: Laisren Ua Tiernan & Saline Le'dwent

Faernsuora (Practitioners of artful faith)
This is our appointed spiritual leadership.
They represent the pinnacle of our community and all will look to them for guidance, including the Akh'Aegis.
All policies and strategies formed by the Aegis is subject to veto from the Faernsuora.
The numbers and election of the Faensuora is an esoteric event, the current members will choose candidates and elect their number.

Current Faernsuora: Luthien Aelorothi, Elethineth Teu-Tel'Quessir and Dralzar the Druid


(( Current Status: a break away group from Doron. We cited the dominance of the council and it's negative effects upon the populace, especially the endangerment of citizenry regarding the Black Orc matter.

Having begun in the attempt to prepare for exodus of elven families north, we had taken to arms and training but now we view this as a matter of survival. While all are required to serve in some armed capacity, the creation of offices and stations will allow those to one day forgo this requirement once we are moved safely north.

It is our long term goal to relocate north, either to the Misty of Ardeep Forests. There we will pledge our service to any elven NPC/DM led community of proper standing that might offer us protection.

This journey will be long and arduous, our RP will be that of the struggle to survive the passage and all that it entails, while continuing to maintain our bond as kin. We will need regular hunting trips to seek out and find food. Resource finding to maintain our weapons and supplies. Furthermore, we will be looking to build diplomatic relations with Nothern groups such as the Helzak Dwarves.

This journey will cause our guild members to become nature in-tuned and feral, as we may need to turn to these instincts to see us through the journey. Arcanists, Monks, and others are more than welcome and it should be interesting to see their reactions to the journey.

All elves are welcome, good, bad, or indifferent. The only crime that would bring one to judgement, bringing harm to your kin, or community!

We look forward to RPing with you all, let's have some fun and create a true community of elves around our motto......

"LOYALTY, LOVE, LIBERTY"

[Maverick 40]

It was not long after their departure for the north that the reports began to filter in. Laisren ignored them at first, focusing his efforts on building and stabilizing Dharasha's position in the north, but always it eat at the the back of his mind. Has it finally come to pass, he thought and finally when the rest of Dharasha's body caught up and pitched camp, he took two days rations leaving to find out if the rumors really were true.

When he finally moved back to the trail entering the Swordteeth he saw, it was much worse! His eyes began to water and a profound sadness overcame him. This place where elves once hunted in peace and tranquility, now lay half barren, devoid of it's former beauty. All he could do was shake his head, until finally he sat within the shade of the last standing trees and watched, he was looking for a sign.....

[beneviolent]

Cousins,

I have requested the presence of a warrior woman named Tara Rahn. She will mention a password if you request one of her. Please see her safely to our camp.

FaernSuora Elethineth

[Maverick 40]

A sending spell is put forth for FaernSuora Elethineth:

"Elenthineth, we have received your letter. She will be welcomed by your word alone. Your wish is my command. Fair winds Lady."

[Maverick 40]

They gathered as he watched. En Dharasha they were, but where was this destiny to lead them? He watched them train, fight, bleed, and drink together. They were good people, the best he thought. So, why did he feel so anxious? What lie on this horizon?

He watched their trainer, an elf whom he held as his pupil till not so long ago. Laisren had known this for some time now, it would be on the shoulders of this strong elf that Dharasha's destiny would be carried. Laisren had tested Mendel through countless trials, both physical and mental. Yet this one had shown a capacity for combat and strength of character greater than any Laisren could have believed. Mendel was the tie that bound the elves of Dharasha, their true champion and a great champion of all elves.

Then he watched as the two sacred ones stood blessing all the men before they entered combat and offering them inspiration through goodly prayer. Lady Luthien and Lady Elethineth with their respective deities of Hanali and Sehanine. They were the heart that beat at the center of Dharasha. Their beauty and kindness drew the other elves from all around to join their cause. Laisren could have no greater respect for a couple than that which he bestowed upon them.

Then he turned to see Saline Ua Tiernan, his wife, in all her beauty. She stood poised still, her gloved hand holding back the cord to her bow and naught did she breath, nor release for moments. Her hand did not tremble, her eye did not waver, she fixated upon the target and within a single exhale she shot an arrow that struck it's target with such ferocity that it exploded the stone holding it. She turned and gave Laisren a sly wink and he thought to himself, Gods, I love her, as he smiled back.

He then turned to look out to the south east and Soubar. The smile ran from his lips as he thought of his adversary. It was those beings and their miserable existence that he understood better than any of his companions. He wondered if there might be a young elven boy who worked mistakenly with them, simply to survive. Laisren wondered if he would find this boy, before it too late, just as Elundir had done for him.

Laisren hardly understood this new world he now lived in. The span of most of his life had been filled with survival and need. He had for so long been ashamed until he met Elundir, the elf whom acted for him, as he tried for Mendel. Still, he had never felt.....needed before, and this unsettled him. He wanted peace for these people, these good people, his people, En Dharasha Everae and he would do what needed to be done to see this through.

[Maverick 40]

They walked slowly, exhausted from their great ordeal. Laisren stopped and turned to look back at the emulating cabin in the High Moor. What they had been up against was greater than anything Laisren could have imagined. Yet they stayed together, they fought as one and they held the day. His crystal blue eyes shown with the fires light, like the reflection of the morning sun over open waters.

He stood there weary and tired, but somewhere within his soul he felt strength. "Laisren, come brother", he heard the voice of his friend Mendel behind him and a hand upon his shoulder. Laisren turned to see his empathetic friend and all their companions atop the rocky path south. The three priestess, each beautiful and awe inspiring, the crossbowman of precision, and the mysterious woman they called Rain.

It was then that Laisren knew what gave him strength and he nodded to Mendel, "Yes cousin, you are right, it tis time to go home...........

// I want to thank everyone whom attended yesterday, you all were great!!! And, an extra special thanks to DMorgorgon whom put on a truly splendid event, CHEERS

[Maverick 40]

En Dharasha's Fish Fry Event

Sitting tasting from his bowl:
Laisren, "Tan, this stew is really interesting...... what's in it?"

Grinning wildly and frying some fish:
Tan, "Crab, Squid, Octopus, light cream, whisky, some mushrooms...."

Now quickly finishing his bowl and going back for second:
Laisren, "Umm, this is good, seems to get better with each spooful....."

In the background
Sam: "Oh, we had a great adventure today fighting cats with tentacles, and something.....thids I think, that messed with your mind, they had squid faces...."

Putting down his bowl:
"Wait, Tan where did you get this squid from and please don't tell me these are the mushrooms from.........



Being kicked in the side:
Laisren, "Ughh, Mendel what, why are you doing that cousin?"

Standing above:
Mendel, "You have your own tent to puke in, have Saline clean up your mess, get up!!"

Standing and walking over to the group now eating breakfast:
"Oh man, my head.....

Puffing on a pipe:
Sam, "Here, some pipeweed will help to ease that"

Shrugging and taking the pipe:
Laisren, "Ah, I wouldn't normally but....."



Now laughing like an ass, his intelligence and charisma completely switched:
Laisren, "Hahaha, you ever see Dralzar the druid smoking while he has cactus skin on......., he looks like a confused porcupine, HAHAHAHA!!!!"

and so went Dharasha's first annual fish fry event, THANKS TAN

[Hoihe]

Through the spell, Teleport object, Hoihe transports a large parchment with a small one attached to it just beside Amarven. The small one reads "Show this, the large one that is, around En Dharasha everae and see who will sign. Thank you in advance Tyhuieliihu."

Should Amarven do as Hoihe requested, upon the parchment the members of the En Dharasha Everae will read the following:

"Greetings my friends!

I Hoihe Dacino am planning to make a diplomatic trip to the Serpent Hills in order to try to acquire a new ally. A silver dragon or more. I have been thinking of employing a mutual alliance in my request, betwen Me, the elves of Doron amar and En Dharasha Everae and of course the dragons themselves. In this proposal of alliance I would offer that those who have made their signature upon this parchment will help the dragon in their matters once we have all recovered from the final battles with the black orcs. Keep in mind silver dragons do not eat sentient creatures so you do not need to be afraid from them save if you have done something evil. The ways I would offer the help of mine and the elves who sign these parchments are the following:

Defeat a red dragon rival (Dragon hunt)
Keep away some Nagas from the dragon's lair
Help the dragon capture a lair
Protect the dragon's lair from the attack of a red dragon

Many of these we already do as adventurers, I ask you to sign up even if you aren't the strongest yet. Even if all you'll do is making a barricade or something for our allies ONCE we recovered from the battles, you'll be welcome. All I ask is that you will honour this agreement so the dragon will help us even later. Please understand the power of this alliance.

- Seeker Hoihe Dacino of Candlekeep, Aribahamutdarastrixarytiss, Ariornternesjvorastrix, Jilgbisai and the navigator of the whistling Wanderess. "

[Darksider_war]

Luthien reads the parchment, arching both of her brows and shaking her head as she does so. Then, she turns her face to Elethineth, sighing softly and taking her to an isolated place.

"The last thing we need, I'm afraid, is getting entangled with the politics of the dragons, especially if said politics will have us end up against a red dragon that hasn't yet threatened us. Not to mention the extremely tormented relationship our race has always had with Io's children. I'm afraid that Hoihe's borderline deranged obsession with dragons will be more harmful than helpful. But let's see what the pro-consuls think about this."

Then she returns to Amarven, offering her a small smile.

"Well dear, thank you for giving us this message. I'll take it to Laisren immediately, tell Hoihe we'll let you know our decision on the matter."

After saying this, she brings the parchment to Laisren's tent.

[Hoihe]

After a long discussion about magic with Amarven once again, Hoihe casts a pair of spells on himself. Greater heroism and bull's strength then turns to leave the Dharasha camp towards the cliffs. He waves once before pulling off his gloves to reveal his small, but sturdy claws which he used to ease his climb. Soon enough he's at the top of the cliffs near the encampment and makes camp there, awaiting Laisren's or Mendel's return to the encampment for a while before taking out an unfinished book and writing in it. He does so for a while before falling asleep, muttering about being jealous of an elf's ability to ignore the need to sleep for a tenday.
