Front Page Recap

Hey everyone, I'm going to be posting the Recap I intend to place on the Home Page here for people to offer things I miss.

Story

• Due to his nature, Qa'han Sandscale gathered the Merchants Commune to strike out on their own venture to make gold without Ri'sari in the loop. However, Ri'sari learns of Qa'han's bussiness from Sylvaswift. As a result, Ri'sari destroys the company warehouse and attempts to murder Qa'han. Little to his knowledge, Qa'han survives the attempt on his life, and begins gathering those within the company to begin his own company under the new guise of Rune-Tail. He intends to make a point to Ri'sari a thing on loyality.
• Rune-Tail goes to Jo'kyrr with a plan to prove his point.
• Ri'sari intends to dissolve to company and relocate to Elswyer, where he will forge the company into a Khajiiti clan. As a "trial", everyone who wishes to join the clan had to pay there own way to Elswyer. To help them earn the coin, Ri'sari provides them with Blue Skooma.
• Many members express there concerns, which Rune-Tail notes carefully (while being as annoying as possible) After the meeting, Rune-Tail invites all those who doubted Ri'sari to join him in a new bussiness.
• A few days later, Rune-tail calls on everyone to discuss a matter of utmost importance: a new company name.
• On Thursday The Auctioneer called upon those of the former company to search for items he wished to sell in the auction. He said that he had knowledge that the company split into two sides and he said the one who brought him what he wished first would choose who he supports. Secretly he wished to make a quick coin from the companies splitting, but his plan was foiled when the Goblin Gnarlus won the prize (By stealing and cheating) and declared all the profits go to him.

OOC

• Many Changes happening in the guild. The main one is that we are going to split into to opposite Faction. The Merchants Commune, and the Sugar-Tooth Clan. The communes established already (Merchants, Silver Tongues, Sellswords, and the Companions) Will still exist in RP sense, but there are now two opposing sides.
• Secondly, I'm pleased to announce that we will be starting up the Weekly Auction Again. Send any items you wish to be put on the Auction Block via Mail to The Auctioneer. Subject: Auction. Description: Starting Bid. Please only one lot of items per mail, but we encourage selling more then one item per Lot. Sets of Items tend to sell for more. Just a side note however, you will only be allowed to put up ten separate lots per auction. This is to ensure everyone has a chance to get a post something instead of everything coming from one person.
• Next to note are that Thursday are reserved for special events with prizes. These can span to Trivia Nights, Scavenger Hunts, Hide and Seek etc. Each of these events will be also be Roleplay
• Finally Sunday nights we will be hosting Role Playing lessons for the guild teaching basic mechanics like how to set your Walk/Run Toggle, use emote, and distinguish between In Character and Out of Character. We will also go into Role Play Etiquette, Character Development, and causing actions to other players.

Looks great! Ri'sari burnt down the warehouse to destroy evidence because he knew the Dominion would implicate everyone after Ice-Eye murdered one with witnesses, though. Needs some spell checking in a few places. :)

Revising/editing the newsletter now to reflect the events of yesterday as well as fixing the errors made. I wrote up most of this on my tablet, so it was only a rough draft, but I'm glad its looking the way you were expecting.

How does this look? I shorten it taking by taking out Wednesday's recap, took out anything specific to Qa'han and more effects the guild as a whole.

Story

• Ri'sari burnt down the Blue Skooma Warehouse to destroy evidence because he knew the Dominion would implicate everyone after Ice-Eye murdered one with witnesses. Meanwhile, Qa'han Sandscale gathered the Merchants Commune to strike out on a venture to make gold without Ri'sari in the loop. However, Ri'sari learns of Qa'han's bussiness from Sylvaswift. As a result, Ri'sari destroys the remainder of the company stock in an attempt to murder Qa'han. Little to his knowledge, Qa'han survives the attempt on his life, and begins gathering those within the company to begin his own company under the new guise of Rune-Tail.
• Ri'sari intends to dissolve to company and relocate to Elswyer, where he will forge the company into a Khajiiti clan. As a "trial", everyone who wishes to join the clan had to pay their own way to Elswyer. To help them earn the coin, Ri'sari provides them with Blue Skooma. Many members express their concerns, and after the meeting, Rune-Tail invites all those who doubted Ri'sari to join him in a new business.
• Thursday The Auctioneer called upon those of the former company to search for items he wished to sell in the auction. He said that he had knowledge that the company split into two sides and he said the one who brought him what he wished first would choose who he supports. Secretly he wished to make a quick coin from the companies splitting, but his plan was foiled when the Goblin Gnarlus won the prize (By stealing and cheating) and declared all the profits go to him.
• Friday Ri’sari took those loyal to him to Elswyer, where they were to meet with the Clan Mother to establish a new clan. Much to everyone’s surprise however, Gnarlus interrupted the ceremony, and revealed his true nature as a loyal friend and ally to Qa’han. He announced to everyone that Ri’sari was not truthful in his claims for no bloodshed, informing everyone he had killed Qa’han. When the clan mother questioned Ri’sari of the accusation, he took her and threatened her life, ordering her to declare them a clan. She complied, but decreed Ri’sari only a cub and not fit to lead.
• When the Clan Mother called on the newly formed clan who would be willing to lead them, Rune-Tail stepped up, and much to everyone’s surprised, revealed himself as Qa’han. Sylvaswift challenged Qa’han for leadership, but ultimately was denounced when the clan showed they trusted Qa’han above him.
• Now the leader of the Sugar Claw clan, Qa’han begins setting a foundation for the new, unaware that some among them seeks revenge, and plots against him.

BSC - A House Divided Cannot Stand
The story so far...
Mo'jahi banished, Qa'han presumed dead after Ri'saari set his boat aflame & the Skywatch warehouse is in ashes; Blue Skooma Co is no more. Ri'saari gathered those still loyal to him with the vision to rebuild, this time in the ways of the Khajiit.
This week's episode...
Ri'saari left Auridon for Elsweyr with his ragged band of followers and petitioned the Clan Mother to form his own clan with him as the Leader.
Clan mother refused him leadership, and in a surprising turn of events Qa'han, arrived on the scene to snatch the leadership away from Sylvaswift's desperate effort to see Ri'saari's plan through.

Rune-tail has begun to establish his Merchant's Guild as a very new entity from the Blue Skooma Co.

Wait isn't the new Clan called the Sugar-Tooth Clan? And if Qa'Han has taken that over now what is the faction that opposes him called? I'm a little confused? And the titles say Sugar-Tooth but now Sugar-Tooth means you are a Sugar-Claw that supports Qa'Han?
So what is the faction that will still support Ri'sari (the more evil aligned group) now called?

I believe Ri'sari still wants to take over that clan that Qa'han is now leading. We still need to fully develop the Sugar-Tooth clan as it does not exist yet in the rp.

Those loyal still to Ri'saari (Kazzah, Sylvaswift, Kiraya, Madisyyn... those not present at the point of decision to walk away from the "politics" as Sylvaswift put it. He was disgusted and went back to report to Ri'saari with the idea of forming a group with him and convince him to give up his idea of forming a clan. Some followed him there, but perhaps those not present would have stayed with Qa'han. You have to decide would your character have still remained loyal to Ri'saari after he/she witnessed all that was said or done. A transcript of the challenge on the steps can probably be provided for those that were not there, to make a "text- based RP decision out of game"it is pivotal to where a character stands.

The fact that Qa'han stands as leader though should not be changed even if you character would have voted against if they were there, that is too funky for my liking. So the decision to stay with Qa'han or follow Sylva back to Ri'saari is the only choice here.

Ri'saari left all, including Kiraya who is with-kitten with Ri'saari's child/s (or perhaps Ri'saari is not the father ^_^ potential plot twist there hehee)

They are camped under a tree in Reaper's March while they settle and plan their next move. Kiraya was devastated, Sylva's life is now forfeit, not sure of Kazzah's inner feelings but he has scampered off to spy on Qa'han's mob, Maddisyn was just lost at the time and feeling vulnerable to being left alone (I think)

So we can add the names later of who is with Sylva/Risaari. Sylvaswift did promise Kiraya that he would not abandon her and he would stand in Ri'saari's stead. (That is hilarious for me, because he is a loner through and through - he hated the idea of a clan and was only going along with it because he has to stick with Ri'saari & now he has a potential family - I will be interested to see what he does LOL)

But perhaps a good way is to RP that part out in the forums for those that missed it.

I cannot get the newsletter posted until I get my internet fixed - it has be slowed for the first out of the five times it will be slowed during each month due to bandwidth issues with our IP This can take me 15 mins - 1 hour depending on how helpful or clued in the person on the other end of the phone is, or in fact whether or not they even understand English.
