NOTW L: The Immortals [Game Thread]

or rather, out of entropy mana user town hands. Kennigit is probably town
 
I'd put money, that anyone who has an affinity or the like for law mana, cannot use entropy mana (entropy = chaos).

Unless someone pms me in private saying I can use it, here's why, I don't see any reason why to not give it to someone who I think might be able to use it.
 
The Prespurian Regent grows red with fury. His words are biting in their viciousness.

"Do you now, mister Axeman? Curious accusation indeed.

I note that others are trying to give it to Exar, who has not asked for it, has no use for it, and won't hand it back to us when he's done not using it.

Meanwhile, I can think of no other persons at this meeting who actually posses any kind of credibility for handling exotic forms of mana.

Do you believe that the Amurite Wizard who decided to let his mind wander off completely because apparently he was that bored, is one of the Demons in our midst? Perhaps a dangerous subversive, a rebel, a Usurper?

Is he dangerous?

I think it's quite clear that he's not dangerous. And when his mind graces us with its presence once again, I think he will be able to tell us more. And if he can't, he can be so good as to put the Entropy Mana up for a vote again, whereas pawning it off onto Exar who can make no use of it is beyond foolish.

Giving it to Kennigit who no longer wants it and could never explain why he needed it so badly is also risky and foolish."

"How much do you actually know, sir Axeman?

Are you prepared to act only in instances where we know for sure?

Is this the kind of cowardice I can expect from you in the future? Because you're starting to disgust and irritate me. And I am considering voting for you shortly, whether today if possible, or tomorrow if necessary, until the words out of your mouth begin to convince me you're actually interested in the best interests of this group, and that you have a spine, and a thinking mind perched atop it.

I am appalled by the lack of imagination and especially the lack of bravery coming from this Axeman of Glevum, and for that matter, I'm none too impressed with his supposed Governor and his nonsensical reasons for voting either.

People of Glevum, is this really the best you have to offer? I am beyond displeased."

:lol:

Every time someone (me) says something you don't agree with, you get your panties in a bunch. I never said giving it to Kennigit was better. I never suggested giving it to Exar, who as we all know, has no use for it. All I did was bring up the lunacy of giving it to someone who hasn't said a peep. We know nothing about him so unless you know something concrete that we don't, you don't either. It's pure speculation he can do anything with it. Period. Convince me otherwise, don't threaten.

As for the more personal insults, I'd say I'd expect better but clearly after round one of threats and blackmail this is what I should expect from you. As for cowardice, I was ready to string up your vampire friend choxorn for his bandwagoning vote to save himself, but you lost your cool then too. Did I know anything outside of what I perceived? No, and I'm about the only one even suggesting things outside the box and not going along with what you decree. I'm not the coward here, you're just mad I'm not another sheep. If you don't like that, go ahead and vote me. I thought the idea here was to get some discussion going and present different viewpoints and ideas, but you're doing all you can to squash it if it doesn't mesh with what you want.

"What enrages me is that you are essentially saying that giving it to the one qualified being in our midst is stupid, and then you offer NOTHING as an alternative, and are then suspicious of MY motives.

A fool is a man with no ideas who tells everyone else their ideas are wrong."
 
I have no better alternatives, otherwise I would have suggested something. I just thinking giving it to a guy who seemingly isn't playing is not productive. And you still haven't convinced me he's qualified. Besides lore, do you know anything about him? Mind you I'm not saying he can't, it's just you're seemingly so tunnel-visioned that he can.
 
What confuses me is how vehemently you [atpg] place your mistrust of me yet have complete faith in another.

"You are attributing qualities to my actions that simply aren't there.

I don't have to convince you he's qualified, because I'm not convinced he's qualified. I think he might be, because he's an Amurite Wizard (just what it says on the label) and they are known for being masters of meta-magic.

If he's not qualified, I can't think of anyone else in this group who is more qualified.

But by all means, someone please step forward, if they know someone, or if they have better ideas.

As for the man's inactivity, our glorious King has already seen to that problem twice already, that I can recall.

You're simply being negative and offering no ideas. I detest undue pessimism, it feels like someone is giving up the fight before it begins, and I call that cowardly.

If you don't like the term, then I suggest you speak more positively about something. Anything. Perhaps I have judged you too rashly. But I'm going to need convincing as well, that you do something around here except dismiss other people."

"Once again, people are attributing absolutes to my position that do not exist. Please, by all means, continue putting words into my mouth. When you're done mischaracterizing my positions, I'll welcome you back to the world of the productive and fair-minded people."
 
The governor of Calcaria's statement:
I have some information that ChineseWarlord is a very peaceful fellow, though he cannot apparently be coerced into talking at the moment...

Meanwhile, I have come across some possible info on the vague diplomatic situation. Neutral seems to be more positive than Cautious. Which means things seem to be slowly worsening, as now two nations are cautious...

Nonononononono.

The Prespurian Lord smiles widely.

This is not someone who has our best interests at heart. This man is a traitor!

Autolycus can wait another day to explain himself, Topsecret can die today.

This is an absolute classic move by our foes. I'm not even sure how to explain it, but he has basically said something we all knew and passed it off as work on his part and to make it seem like he is doing work.

This man is a traitor!
 
I must admit, I am shocked and saddened by the outpouring of rage against me. No, I am not part of the Sheaim diplomatic delegation, I am a magistrate, come here on my own to consult with Exar and compare the differences between Sheaim and Calabim legal practices. I agree with the lord that topsecret's mastery of the obvious is a bit suspicious. An overeagerness to appear helpful has oft masked the traitor's or assassin's visage.

As for this hullabaloo with respect to my asking for the entropy mana, yes, I do have familiarity with it from my Sheaim upbringing. Whether it merely strengthens me or whether I can cast spells with it, I do not think it wise to reveal before all, as that would be a gift of information to our foes.

If I die this day, as it seems likely I will, I'd suggest taking another look at choxorn as well, for his place in the accusations against me and lack of reasoning. I also think visorslash should be made to reveal his source for the false evidence against me that he references.
 
The Prespurian Regent looks at the time, and scowls.

"The hard work cannot be done one and two hours before midnight, for most of the day walkers have gone to bed. I would have loved to have spoken with you earlier in the day than this, Autolycus."
 
Night Three

Exar wasn’t quite sure what he was feeling, perhaps the loss of his advisor affected him much more than he thought. Or perhaps it was something else. While he was contemplating his feelings, accusations were being shouted back and forth. A great cry from the guests disturbed him from his thoughts and he looked up. The guest were grouped in a circle with a solitary figure in the middle. The Sheaim Magistrate looked distraught, it was clear that most thought he was a guilty of, well… something. Exar stood up with a red glint in his eyes that few noticed and made his way towards the group of people. The circle parted to let Exar in and as soon as the magistrate saw the King he fell down to his knees, weeping quietly. Exar walked around behind the magistrate and paused. The King caressed the cheek of the magistrate that caused him to flinch. “Relax” Exar whispered as his hands when towards the magistrate’s neck and with a swift motion buried both hands into it and torn it open, partially tearing off the magistrate’s head. A rush of blood spurted out at the main artery as it was torn. The Sheaim Merchant, as well as several others, threw up at the sight of the blood and then, when Exar lowered his lips to drink, only those who had seen such a thing before did not look away.

Autolycus was Lynched
Spoiler Alignment :
he was a Human Innocent.


The body was searched and solitary orb was found. It appeared to be Fire Mana. It would be able to be claimed the next day. Meanwhile, The Prespurian Regent gained both Death Mana orbs, while the silent Amurite Wizard gained the Entropy Mana.

Dawn breaks in [timer=10/12/2013 6:00 PM +13:00; Day has finished] [/timer] at 12 Oct 2013 6:00 PM (+13:00)


Night orders to me before dawn.
 
The Prespurian Regent looks out into the night, sleepless as ever, as if searching for someone he knows will not come. He looks forlorn, but only slightly. He hides it as well as he can.
 
DAY FOUR

“A governor? One of my loyal governors has been attacked? Who dares think they can attack one of my governors? I will not let it go unpunished!” The Vampire King was furious. “Take me to him now!” The guards lead Exar to the room of the Calcarian Governor” Exar looked puzzled when he looked inside. "He’s not just attacked he’s dead." The Calacarian Aide took a step back and stammered “It was not my intention to deceive you, my Lord, it’s just that he was not killed by the demon…” Exar’s eye narrowed and he went towards the body. There were only faint marks but it was clear what had killed him.

Topsecret had his blood drained dry
Spoiler Alignment :
he was a Human Innocent.



Exar was even in a worse mood once he discovered the cause of death. “I will rip out the teeth of every last vampire here, if I have to. That is twice my laws have been broken…” Exar stood into the reception hall where everyone had gathers. The guest made way for him as he made his way up to the front. It was clear to everyone there that his mood was getter worse as he got stronger. He faced his guests and with a booming voice declared “I want the vampire responsible for the attack to step forward now!” The guests looked at each other with apprehension.

After some time the Governor of Luentinum stepped forward to the sound of hushed tones and sharp breaths drawn inwards. “My King, I humbly suggest that you leave it to us to find those responsible for this. We will bring him to you, of that I have no doubt.” The governor bowed low in front of the King. “I also feel that I should highlight a fact that seems to have been overlooked, in that there has been no one killed by the demon this night.” Exar regarded the Governor and realised the truth of his words. “Very well, I will leave it to all of you... to being those to me that need to feel my justice. I hope that you can also find out what happened to the demon? Did he not attack at all or has someone fended it off?”

Exar soon changed the subject. “There are several Orbs that are up for claims. The late governor had on his person both Mind and Sun Mana to go with the Fire Mana from last night. The Wizard has offered up both his Entropy Mana and Metamagic Mana as well.”

Sun mana for kennigit
Mind to me
MetaMagic to me

MetaMagic to ChineseWarlord. Isn't meta-magic his specialization? (though if he shows no sings of movement by the end of today, then I shall change this vote to someone more willing to do something with this mana)

Also, Visor, why are you so obsessed with giving manas to kennigit? This is the second day in a row that s/he has been offered manas without even asking for them and you are the first to offer them. I don't think either of you is a traitor, but you seem to have to high of an opinion of Kennigit's qualifications.

[OOC: I will write something more substantive if I have more time]
 
I promise you the vampire responsible for this will be truly questioned and I believe I know who it is...

We governors had a little conversation about orbs yesterday and poor topsecret mentioned the Sun orb. He didn't reveal the Mind orb though so it must have been important to him. Therefore I think governor Verarde should take care of it.

I and I request the orbs that the magician offer.
