[Eledyr 85]

((IC)) Name:

Shavvir

((IC)) Age:

19

((IC)) Profesion:

While he moonblade at the moment he no longer feels like fighting, an old wound at his leg has left him unable to form a threat to the other fighters and that is why he is planning on resigning when he gets the chance.

((IC)) Reasons why we should choose you:

*Shavvir feels nervous as he sees the crowd, what will they think? But he knows that what he is doing is the right choice. He know that he is destined for this role and he knows that he will do the best he can to achive it.

He then walks up to the crowd and starts speaking*

Gather around Kha for Shavvir has an important message, I shavvir is going to try and achieve the role of Truluk. Not many of you know me, I was previously known as Dra’Shavvir moonblade of the great Tla’xerdun.

Like all of you know he has, unfortunately moved on to join Metzli in her entourage and so a new time comes.

The time of the great Blood Emperor. Times change and so do persons, while I was a ferocious fighter in the past I got hit in the leg by a surprise attack by a many-leg which has given me trouble to fight. That is why I am resigning the role of Moonblade and I will try and get a chance to work with my second passion, building. I want to make this Island, no our island into a true gift from Metzli. In my entire time of living I have always had a passion for building and I have helped with the construction of some of the homes you live in already. I understand it if you would rather see a known face as Truluk but today is not the time to think about having friends in the right positions for your own pleasure. Today is of making a choice that will affect the empire as a whole. So choose wisely my fellow Kha’ and know that I will be here for you.

((IC)) Do you understand the Truluk duties, if yes, please explain:

*Shavvir tries to rate his success with the audience, sadly he is seeing that it is not going well

The other Kha’s had forgotten about him in his long absence during wich he lied in bed recovering of his wounds

Yet he does not lose hope for he knows that Metzli is with him*

I assume that most of you know and understand the duties of the Truluk and I want you to know that I do as well If I would be given the honour of becoming the new Truluk I know what I have to do. At the moment our island is like a piece of unpolished armor, while it looks good from afar it is dirty and messy when closely inspected. In that way the empire is also like a blunt weapon, pretty to look at yet useless since it has not been sharpened. I , Shavvir will try and make both happen. I will make the empire functional yet astonishing.

There will be homes for everyone, training grounds for our loyal military and even the market will be tidied up.

Like I already said fellow Kha’s with a new empire also come new chances and we should take that chance to form the empire like we want for once and for all. I hope that my speech has made you understand where I am coming from and what I will do for you and the empire. Now I leave all of you with one last question to think about. What would you rather see? An empire in ruins inhabited by shy Kha kind, or a Beautifull island with proud Kha family’s? Know that I will make sure that the second happens. Now a good day to all of you and may Metzli watch over you.

*walks of towards his home not knowing whether the other Kha’s truly believe in him, he is unsure yet he feels relieved for he knows that today he has helped, or at least tried to help the empire that he loves and cherishes.*

(IC)) Can you bring yourself to sacrafice another when requested?:

That question is a hard one to ask, While if it where necessary to bring a sacrifice I would. But for the honour of sacrificing on the festivals and other I will leave that to my, hopefully one day, colleague Sostelos and the priests for they are more capable when it comes to sacrificing.

((OOC)) An Aelkos position means you will be helping us run the race OOCly and ICly, Are you prepared for this responsability and have the time for it?:

My online time will be limited to about 3 hours a day since I have school and other irl things to take care off.

However I do think that that should be enough in-game time while at least another 3 hours will be me spending my time making plans for the betterment of the empire. I also understand that it will put a great weight on my shoulders and also a great responsibility but I think that I am capable of it. I have seen this race go through everything. I have seen us struggle in the beginning when most of you didn’t even know about us. I have seen the first and the second downfall and also the last very current rise. Yes we have been through a lot but I want to make sure that all of that hard work does not go to waste. Xerdun had to leave us recently because of irl priority’s but I will try and do my best to make us, his legacy to this server live on. I have to admit that I myself have not been very active in game lately and for that I apologize, I have been busy but now that I have seen how much work needs to be done still (cause lets not lie a lot of work needs to be done before we are completely ready) I want to help the best I can. Now if you still wonder whether I am just in it for the power then there is not much more that I can do to prove that all I want is the best for this race, not only for me or Xerdun no, I want this for all of you and the other players on lotc.

And as the old sign in Va’kharaja jewel of the sand once said: common guys let’s

make this epic 

((OOC)) What have you done for the race so far?:

At the moment not many things come to my mind, I have helped in the old days with building and creating ideas for festivals. I also designed some traps that sadly never saw daylight. I helped my friend Fox the ,then, social Aelkos with some ideas as well. As for now the last few months I have not done a lot, I gathered recourses and made some houses and a design for a tavern. I helped on Deco’s build server and I have pm’ed some members with my ideas that I had. I know that what I have done is not a lot but that was mostly because I had either no time to do it or someone else was already doing it. Now that the race is on a turning point either making it or living the same fate as the mori, I am going to put everything I have in it. I WIIL write lore and I WILL make buildings and plans. And yes I will rp more frequently. I understand that some of you won’t trust me because of my sudden return to them I say please do. I know that I am for it and I know that I can do the job.

I hope that All of you just at least consider me, Thanks to all who read this.

Your friendly fellow Kharajyr Nikias

[[i know for a fact more people wanted this :P it appears you have scared them off *Slow clap*]]

[Bat Druid 140]

((IC)) Name: Ko'Kirilenko Therkul

((IC)) Age: 21

((IC)) Proffesion: During Kirilenko's early adult life he was a simple Sa'. He would hunt for a living and that was how he liked it. Eventually through disastrous events he was given the Smithy and became a blacksmith. Ko' was his title and he would create and sell various weapons and armour where he is still working today.

((IC)) Reasons why we should choose you: As Kirilenko slowly walked to the Tla', he felt extremly nervous, he got ready the pre-written speech he had for the position of Trukluk. He stepped towards Tiazar and rummaged through his bag and took out some peices of paper with his handwriting on it. Greetings, Tiazar. Kirilenko wishes to become Truluk. He is a fine blacksmith and will make a great Truluk. He is prepared to lead the other craftsmen on the island and work with you, oh great Tla'. He shall do whatever he can to make the empire shine like a newly forged blade. He values productivity and quality and will make certain that the building of the empire is running smoothly and efficently. Kirilenko will make sure that the empire has whatever it needs whenever it needs! He swears that the empire would be better with him as the Truluk! Thank you for you audience oh, great Tla'. Kirilenko stops reviewing his speech and starts to show the paper to the emperor.

((IC)) Do you understand the Truluk duties, if yes, please explain: As Kirilenko heads to the door he hears the Tla' asking him that question. He turns and nods to the Tla' and takes some paper with the anwser to the question. Yes, great Tla' Kirilenko know what Kirilenko must do, He must make sure the building is running smoothly without interruptions and Kirilenko, if chosen, must also instruct the building. He is also in charge of the Ko' and any gatherer's in the society. He feels this is a great responsibilty and will carry it best he can. Kirilenko reviews the writing and shows the paper to the Tla.

((IC)) Can you bring yourself to sacrafice another when requested?: Kirilenko looks to the Tla' and gives a simple nod as the anwser is yes. ((I'll do wahtever I can in my power to make it to whatever you need))

((OOC)) Minecraft name: Arzar

((OOC)) An Aelkos position means you will be helping us run the race OOCly and ICly, Are you prepared for this responsability and have the time for it?: Considering my timezone (GMT +10) I have about two hour and 30 minutes maybe when everyone else is online. But it is not about time it is about the efficency! I will be an efficent well-oiled machine and will try to solve problems as quick as I can! I will be as responsible as possible and do what is best for the empire.

((OOC)) What have you done for the race so far?: So far? I was going to be in the first Kharajyr marrige but that sort of, maybe, failed. Alot. That is all really all. But with this I could do so much more for the Kharajyr. I am fairly embarassed that I have not done much but I wish to do so much more and have this race take off and become the best of the best. That is all. I hope you accept me and goodnight/afternoon/morning/evening my friends!

((IC)) Name:

Ki'Khayla

((IC)) Age:

19

((IC)) Profession:

*Upon hearing the question, the young Kha gulps, knowing that her age may deter many from following her, despite this, she clears her throat and speaks up*

Following in my mother's footsteps, I have taken up the hammer and anvil, and now run the Smithy in the absence of my mother. I am still learning everyday, as are many of you craftsmen. Carpenters learn new ways of carving wood, miners learn new ways of moulding stone to reveal its treasure, and sailors learn new ways of rigging for maximum speed. We are all learning, and this is a position I hope to learn more from.

((IC)) Reasons why we should choose you:

*Khayla, upon hearing the question, gulps deeper than before, knowing this is her one chance to envelop the crowd in her speech, and gain their favour*

I am Khayla, daughter of Khago. All of you would remember my mother as the Smith. She would repair your tools, smith you new blades for killing no-breaths, or just have a chat with you before going to bed. You all remember her kindness, and her compassion. I have dealt with the sadness of her passing, and have finally revealed myself, as her daughter, as my father, Kirilenko wished to keep me a secret, for reasons unknown to me. Upon losing his tongue, he had no way to restrain me, and therefore I was free to roam the Empire, but now I find something that draws me to it, being the Truluk. It is what I think my mother would have wanted, and her death... and the sadness it brought. It is something I shall never forget. I wish to follow her footsteps and fulfil her legacy, and keep the Smith in good capable hands. I wish for my hand to guide all craftsmen in our great nation and work towards a greater future, and I wish for all of you to join me on such a journey.

I believe I should be the Truluk because I will guide the Kharajyr into a new age of prosperity and trade, with new smiths being trained and lumberjacks being supplied with many a new tool-set. I would push our tradesmen to trade skils, supplies and knowledge onto each other, and further their own skills. Another reason is that I am a tradeskha myself, and I know how labouring is a difficult task, but rewarding when you return home with a pay-check that would ultimately lead your family to wealth, but I also know the dangers that craftskha face. My own mother was careless when smithing, and it resulted in her perishing.

I plan as Truluk to organize the people of the Kharajyr into a great ball of speed and diligence in all work, for without the materials produced by that great ball of work and diligence, the Truluk cannot perform her other duties, such as the instruction and construction of the Empire itself, and I believe that as Truluk, I will be able to perform such a duty in unison with the others whom will command the Kharajyr.

These are just some of the reasons I believe that I should be Truluk.

((IC)) Do you understand the Truluk duties, if yes, please explain:

*Understanding the duties of the Truluk fully, she responds with confidence*

The duties of the Truluk are many. Every duty he or she does affects the whole nation as a whole. The Truluk is in charge of the organization of the gatherers and the craftsmen of the nation. I, Khayla, believe that as my mother did before me, I can rally the craftsmen and the gatherers of this great nation to work in unison, and allow this nation to prosper. Without a Truluk, the gatherers and craftsmen would be disorganized though functional.

((IC)) Can you bring yourself to sacrifice another when requested?:

*Khayla shrinks not from such a question, believing that she can answer truthfully and with strength*

I believe I will be able to. Metzli has granted me a chance to continue my mothers legacy and for that I am grateful. For Metzli, I would sacrifice many an animal for her.

((OOC)) Minecraft name:

CalmCrysis

((OOC)) An Aelkos position means you will be helping us run the race OOCly and ICly, Are you prepared for this responsability and have the time for it?:

I believe that I, CalmCrysis, am ready for such a task. I have been involved with the planning of the nation from the very start, even planning the outline of the city for a time. I have experience ICly in Blacksmithing, Farming and other "craftsman" trades, learnt from my mother, the now deceased Khago. I have the time to organize the city mostly OOCly, with a lot of time on the weekends to go online and help, and I accept this responsibility with all my heart.

((OOC)) What have you done for the race so far?:

Well, as Khago, I was the Smith for the city and in turn the nation, for about a month, cooking stone and repairing axes and other tools. OOCly, I designed part of the city on Photoshop, which Deco and her IRL cat enjoyed, so that I can add.

[Wretched 2075]
