Kor'garr, Musin-friend, smiles warmly around thick tusks as he reads over the miniature announcement. Squinted eyes gleam in clear approval of Dolly Peregrin's actions. "Dah zmawl agh kub-loike zhuld bi protekted, yub. Diz wuld pleaze Toazt agh Flour iv dey were arownd tu peep et..." With that, a letter is written by bulky orcish hands, and delivered through Orcish Courier Hawk to the small ream of Dunfarhing. Bold letters smelling of the desert sands and rich berries gleam across dense cane parchment. Tu Dolly Peregrin, Elder of Dunwen: Kor'garr has read lat's announcement of shelter to the other small folk of Aevos, and is impressed by your strength agh generosity. Would lat be open to an interview with the Kaktuz Weekli sometime in the next few cactus days about the state of Dunwen agh yourself? It would be a wonderful point of view to share with the rest of Descendant kind upon Aevos. With the blessings of Arwa's Harvest and Knox's pumpkins, Kor'garr the Clanless Skriptgoth of the Horde Owner of the Kaktuz Weekli

Kor'garr, owner of the Kaktuz Weekli, picks up the crumpled form in surprise. "Hmm... Anudda vor dah Bownti Hunterz." With that he marks the paper for later entry in the next issue of his Newspaper.

[!] Another piece of paper is pinned beneath the original declaration, written in blocky common script familiar to most. The ink is still drying, and has the harsh scent of Desert berries. [!] To the Horde and the Council of Clans, Kor'garr, Skriptgoth of the Iron Horde, officially supports this claim and the call for a Klamor to occur at least next Cactus Day. These initiatives have been sought for many, many tiks and all descendants of Krug have the right to show their strength through these challenges. May the Spirits look upon this challenge with pride. Also: YUB, it is a code of the Council that only one position is to be held at a time by a single orc. Madoc is violating this, and the only reason it hasnt been focused on earlier was the fact we were facing arachnid Armageddon. For Truth and the Ancestors, Kor'garr Skriptgoth of the Horde Trialwalker of Clan Yar Formerly the Clanless Rex OOC DATE AND IMPORTANT DETAILS

The Skriptgoth's lips twist into a warm smile of pride as he reads the alliance announcement within San'Briu. Some nails and a few moments of effort slap the decree up upon the Horde's notice board. "Oi remember wen Drekur wuz neerli wytewazhed vrum kauzyng izzuez en San'Velku. Dah Popogoth haz gohn'ag long wey vrum daht, agh diz iz imprezzive werk vor dubth clanz. HAH! Kor'garr wizhes dehm dah bezt." A swig of harsh grog is taken before bulky grey hands place a copy of the announcement within Kor'garr's records in the Kaktuz Weekli office.

Kor'garr, Skriptgoth of the Horde, raises a single brow in stark surprise as he reads over the announcement of a looming Spirit Wagh. Crimson eyes flicker back and forth before the greyskin releases a booming, guttural laugh. "Hozh! Kor'garr grukk'd dah Maw agh Glutroz wer dah zeym, buht diz meykz much more senze. Et iz tru, dah Maw haz bin gettyng much mor worshyp dehn dah Greedy Zpirit... Agh diz iz'ag hozh artikle." With that, the owner of the Kaktuz Weekli begins creating new batches of vibrant ink with the hardy desert berries and cactus juices from the Aevosian wastes...

Kor'garr the Clanless, Skriptgoth of the Horde, looses a harsh bark of laughter as he reads the announcement with twitching crimson eyes. The grey orc is salivating at the thought of some proper grog after literal years of soberness. "WIZ GONNA GIT GROGG'D, BRUTHAZ! WHY IZ JOYNYNG KOR'GARR?" Thus, the Iron Horde prepares to depart for this new Shire of Dunwen...

Kor'garr, Skriptgoth of the Horde, hears murmurs amongst the newly settled orcs of the Iron Horde about a new disciple upon the path of worshipping Skathaach's realm. a harsh brow and thick handlebar mustache furrow as the information he seeks, that of a name for this new shaman, is lost to him. Eventually he retires to his room, looking upon the massive tome of notes just revealed to spiritualist circles. Ink stained hands turn still blank pages, ready for notes about Lesser spirits of the Elemental realms. "Meybi dey wuld intervyu... meybi."

Kor'garr, despite his plans to include lessers at a later point as mentioned in the Compendium, remains blissfully unaware of the mistake concerning Clan Lak...

[!] The massive Codex, bound in aurum and jet black leather, is stamped with a crimson Skaddernak. Dense pages of cane parchment within are expertly bound using silk cords, and many sheets at the end of each section are left blank for future entries. Blocky yet precise script is legible to all races in common. [!] The Conceptual Compendium: Spirits Elemental agh Immortal Introduction Over the years, Kor'garr has found many children of Krug grow up without proper knowledge of the Spirits. Such a lacking education is more fitting of Nub-Uruks or Trialwalkers seeking Honorary status, those who must be introduced to Orc Kulture rather than being raised in it. To rectify this as Skriptgoth of the Horde, Kor'garr has compiled the many records of San'Velku's Library of Theruz into a single lexicon of spiritual enlightenment, flavored by first fist accounts from miself agh shamans that have met these spirits. This is not a complete list. Some names and realms have not been sought out for a pact in centuries, and some Spirits simply represent dishonorable concepts Kor'garr will not praise with detailed descriptions. That being said, shamans with unmentioned records or details are welcome to seek me out and share their findings! Kor'garr will add to this massive tome as years go on. May the spirits guide lat on the path of Truth to greater understanding.

Aside from that, Kor'garr has heard little about this spirit. Ublulhar - Spirit of Hope and New Beginnings Kor'garr knows little about this spirit, strangely enough.

Velkumezt - Spirit of Cities, Settlements, and The Law Votar - Spirit of the Hunt Vulka - Spirit of Warfare, Strategy, and Siegecraft Concerning Lesser Spirits Kor'garr will add entries explaining the known lessers of various domains as mi hears of them.

I support these changes, more interaction and storytelling in opposition to old styles of gatekeeping/hermit style magic is a wonderful improvement for a community that already goes above and beyond to help with the narrative of LotC. Great ideas! +1 Also makes me wonder about High Elves given the common lore mentions of their having more potent mana pools/genus...

Welcome back friend! Glad to have you joining us, and we all look forward to new adventures on Aevos! Feel free to visit San'Briu sometime, or even make an Orc! =)

All I ask is if custom fish are made a la Vortex: PLEASE DON'T DO THE CUSTOM WEIGHT/size THING, IT JUST CLUTTERS INVENTORIES. aside from that, I love this idea and would like for region/biome specific fishing to make a return.

I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT Vslabjaychabafzkalsozmfhqnbjabatabjxkwnjz Ok, seriously: thank you for having this thing be a legitimate danger _and_ a great source of Hunt RP despite the inherent derpiness of a Capybara-Caterpillar. This is the exotic sort of wildlife i love to see in a fantasy world and truly ingeneous. The cooking cauldrons of San'Briu wait to have their fill of this delicacy. +1

I am thankful to hear about all of the wonderful work moderation team has been doing, as well as the staggering number of initiatives in the works. Moderation members, especially the newer faces like @PrettyCuteAnnaand @Toddbringer, have been doing a wonderful job and I am ecstatic we have you all helping improve the LotC experience. +1, great steps on the road to 500.

Kor'garr, Skriptgoth of the Horde, raises his brow in surprise as he reads over this interview with the leader of Canonism. A tusked grin spreads beneath a thick handlebar mustaches before he lets out a harsh chuckle. "Wehl dun, yub... Wuld hav prifeerd tu peep dah originul zkript uv dah intervyu en ikzakt wurdz, buht ztyll wehl dun. Whu iz diz... Jon uv clan O'Kieran? Dey moight bi'ag hozh imployee." With that question uttered the Kaktuz Weekli owner begins to draft up a letter for the Ward of Tuvia... Translation

[OOC] Wonderful Lore/Culture piece and I appreciate the more nuanced take on Monotheism/Creator origin story that allows more cohesiveness with LotC history as a whole. It's clear you put a lot of effort and thought into the Soaring Faith. Great job!

Kor'garr, Skriptgoth of the Iron Ugz, grins despite the weariness of his frame upon hearing of this new lesser. His mustache gleams with sweat and grime from the caverns underneath Almaris, and yet... "Lup'Ublulhar, agh Lup'Ahura-Ma, daht awl zhakulz uv znagadum ahr broken en grukker agh ztrength!"

When I made that malding post in Lobby chat on LotC discord it was a JOKE. I... I am actually baffled by this. Who thought they would get away with it?
