"T'is boat belongs tuh Urguan!!" Hogarth shouts, enjoying the victory over the Grobbi traitors. 

Pamphlets are nailed to the notice boards of every Dwarven settlement bearing the seal of the Clergy.

"It is a shame to hear of the loss of our dear Prophet and friend Darid Irongrinder. He inspired us all to continue to be better Dwarves, but alas we cannot always mourn. The Brathmordakin would wish us to move on, and while we pay respect to our ancestors, we must also continue to make progress. Zahrer Irongrinder has studied the Dwarven scriptures constantly, and his thesis on Yemekar's Balance shows deep appreciation of the Gods. It is with this knowledge, and the knowledge that he is capable of leadership, that I announce Zahrer Irongrinder as the new High Prophet of Da Kirkja Dverga. May Anbella provide us a hearth stable in order to thrive and may Urguan bring prosperity to his Kingdom."

Signed, Hogarth Irongut, Prophet of Belka. 

Fliers are hung all around Tal’azmar, along with the newly retaken Kal’omith, Arcadia, and Jornheim. They read as follows.

Attention Dwed of the realm, the Grand Kingdom has seen fit to host a tournament in honor of the conquest of our glorious city of Kal’omith. The battle proved the strength of Dwarven arms, but in times of relative peace tournament are well suited to keeping our axes sharp. This tournament will pit clan against clan in a clash of steel and ferrum. Each clan will be allowed four kinsman to fight on your clan’s team, these teams will fight against each other until only one is left standing. Which team fights which is chosen at random and equal weapons and armor will be provided. The winning clan will be amply rewarded with 3,000 minas and a set of diamond armor provided by the Grand Kingdom. 

Signed, Legion Commander Hogarth Irongut.

The Urguanite Worker Vol. 1

The first volume of The Urguanite Worker is published! A thanks to Darid Irongrinder for help with the artistic drawings and a thank you to all Dwarven workers.

Food Production in Urguan Sinks to New Lows!

Darid Irongrinder surveys the barren farmlands of Urguan, circa 1613. Artist rendition.

Fellow Red Urguanites Darid Irongrinder and Hogarth Irongut came to a stunning realization late last stone day. While the farms were constantly being planted and harvested, barely any of this food went to the workers! The food chest prominently displayed at Tal’Azmar was filled to the brim with rotten, mossy food that would sicken any Dwarf that touched it. This is just one example of the fact that while we live in a time of plenty, few of the benefits of this wealth go to the common Dwed.

“We need collectivization of the farms!” claims Red Urguan co-revitalizer Hogarth Irongut.

“A Dwed worker shouldn’t worry day in and day out whether he’ll have enough monkbread to support himself or his family. Collectivization under a Red Urguan model would mean bread for the poor and no surplus to the wealthy shop owner. This would mean a sharing of the wheat, carrots, potatoes and other crops with fellow workers in order to create a better society.”

The daring Red Urguan Worker’s Party plans to curve Dwarven starvation and lethargy. No compromise can be taken on the health of the Dwed countrymen. Rally to Red Urguan for new Dwarven prosperity!

Panic Strikes Ascended Safehaven!

Emissary Darid Irongrinder of Red Urguan meeting with a troubled Ascended Official. Colorized.

Darid Irongrinder paid a troubling visit to the Ascended keep last stone day. The Teutonic Order viciously attacked the innocent Holy Order the other day, reports state. The reason for this surprising conflict is that the Dwarven vassal sheltered a frost witch who wanted to turn a new leaf. This frost witch is being treated to return to normal descendant life, but the harsh military order saw that as colluding with the enemy. Even more troubling is the fact that the Teutonic Order, our ally, attacking one of our vassals without most Dwed even knowing it! A new system must be put in place in order to stop these barbaric atrocities being committed on our lands. Will peace ever come to the descendants of Urguan? While the times might be dire, Red Urguan fights for peace. Darid Irongrinder pledged Red Urguan’s aid to the fledgling Ascended, noting that all Red Urguanites support each other.

“All comrades are here for fellow comrades and their friends. Together we can end silly conflicts like this and continue realm peace.” said Red Urguanite Darid Irongrinder.

Let us not fight over petty arguments, instead let us unite to fix Urguan as a whole in Solidarity. No workers can be exploited if they face the fight together. Join the fight for a united society. Join Red Urguan!

Parion's a great guy and a hard worker, I'm sure he'd do great in the position. +1

The Red Urguan Worker’s Party

History

Recreated by Hogarth Irongut, Red Urguan is meant to be not only a force in controlling the means of production within the Kingdom of Urguan but also a political entity to liberate the masses from unjust tyranny. The Red Urguan Worker’s Party continues the tradition laid out by Skippy Irongut and former Red Urguan organizations. Skippy fought for the simple plea of wages for the worker. His party and what it represented drew many Dwarves, young and old, to the cause for a more just society. Workers collectives where Dwed deposited ores and other valuable materials in exchange for minas were established and Skippy grew to be a well liked figure, especially among Urguan’s poor and destitute. With the Red Urguan Workers Party long abandoned, Hogarth Irongut saw the malformities and discontent in the Dwarven population and wishes to change that. Now reunited with his old friend Darid Irongrinder they cofounded the newly made Red Urguan Worker’s Party.

Beliefs

The Red Urguan Worker’s Party first and foremost believes in worker’s solidarity. While apart, the working and common class of Dwed are easily exploited by wealthy shopkeepers, superstitious priests, and demagogue political leaders. Together the workers of Urguan can be a political force for the betterment of society. Thus the Red Urguan party is not a hierarchical organization. Hogarth Irongut is not the leader staring down at the Dwarven masses. All workers in Red Urguan have equal say in the Party’s actions through democratic means. While some might say this is inefficient, this makes sure that the workers are not lead into a cause involuntarily or exploited by yet another demagogue. As the organization grows in size representatives will be elected to serve as the workers voice to the council of Red Urguan. Red Urguan dismisses the antiquated Lord system as a legitimate form of government. The people should choose their representatives, not the King in an attempt to appease the rich and powerful.

The Party dismisses the Clergy as a way to communicate the will of the Gods to the Dwarven people. Its recent aggressive posturing against Arcadia only proves that its members wish to exploit nationalism in order to gain political power. Hogarth Irongut has relinquished his Clergy robes in order to work for the people of Urguan, not for old priests who fool the masses with tricks and lies. The Clergy are no better than stage magicians performing to deceive the workers into lethargy and docility. The Worker’s party urges members to leave the Clergy and to abandon superstition in order to devote life to the cause.

Another pillar of the Party’s beliefs is anti-imperialism. Urguan has fought against Imperialist reactionaries many times in its history. While Urguan has been a major force in halting and ultimately destroying reactionary imperialism, it seems our leaders have turned to this themselves. The Worker’s Party denounces unjust wars that Urguan does not belong in. While the grudge against Norland is somewhat justified, many who perpetrated such grudge are long dead. The flat out admittance that the Grand King wishes to destroy a people in order to sell their land to the highest bidder is shameful. The workers of Urguan spilt their blood for centuries in order to halt Orenian imperialism only for it to be replaced by Urguanian imperialism. For the sake of saving lives, Dwarven and Human, we should take a diplomatic approach to ending these wars on foreign soil and returning to peace and prosperity. Do not give the Orenian reactionaries any more reason to despise us. Instead let us work as a diplomatic power in the world, ending conflicts instead of starting them.

Organization

In order to benefit the working class of Urguan we have set up a system of rewards for the workers toil. Working includes mining and lumberjacking along with other needs specific to the kingdom. The system works as follows:

1. Find Hogarth Irongut or Darid Irongrinder to be recruited and to be settled into the Party.

2. Upon being hired, you will be given a chest with a number on it. This is your 'deposit' chest.

3. Gather ANYTHING and place it in your deposit chest.

4. On Sunday, your Deposit chest shall be emptied and in it you will find some Mina Bonds.

5. Remove the Mina bond and make your way to the Red Urguan Bank. As you enter the courtyard, take a right and you will find the banker. Here you may exchange your Mina Bonds for real Minas.

6. (( To sell your Mina Bond you need to enter the number corresponding to your note. If its a 50 Mina Bond its 1. If its a 20 Mina Bond its 2. If its a 10 Mina Bond its 3. If its a 5 Mina Bond its 4. Then, depending on how many of the bonds you wish to cash in, you enter that number with a minus in front of it. In my case I had one 50 Mina Bond. So I would've typed in, after right clicking the slab; 1 and then -1. I would've gotten 50 minas then. Easy! ))

Character bio:

(Here you should write on why your character would fit into the Brotherhood, and why you should join):

Hogarth has a long and varied story within the Grand Kingdom. He started as a legionnaire and within time rose to become Lord Diplomat and eventually Grand King in the Fringe. Due to his high achievements he soon after retired to a life of simplicity and service to the Brathmordakin. He was High Prophet for a number of years during which he attempted to revive the piety and devotion Dwed have to the faith. Along the way there have been many challenges to this from Orenian invasions to turmoil and strife within the Clergy. Hogarth now returns to continue his devotion to the Gods and the Dwarven people. He wants to help provide a place where Dwarves can express their faith and defend their nation. While Hogarth is best with the more peaceful side of faith like sermons and pilgrimages, he can still take up a sword or an axe to defend what he holds dear. He would like to serve in any way he can in order to revitalize the Dwarven nation and spirit. 

(Do you accept the PK(Permanently killing your Character) clause if you break the Brotherhood’s Blood-Oaths)?

Y/N

Yes I agree.

Magic! I mean from what I remember the whole liberty vs. authority was more surveillance and talking about 'strong' leadership. I think if there is a wealth redistribution it shouldn't be forceful or anything like that. More like takes and a system that creates more equal footing. In terms of that I would say I'm more of a democratic socialist/progressive, but I'm not exactly looking to debate on this thread. 

But yea, the questions are pretty vague. I also don't like the [insert thing] is not as bad as others say they are questions. 

Once again a +1 from me, Parion seems to always work hard with the staff positions he's given. He's also a kind person and, I believe, willing to put aside personal biases when judging a situation. +2 -1
