  2. A old man sits on a table writing a book, as his apprentice walks in holding a sealed letter. The apprentice gives it to his master as he leaves the room, the old man smiles as his lips part upon seeing the seal on the wax.. ''Ah my old friend, no it can not be he has gone to the Creator..'' Breaking the seal he starts to read the letter, as he closes it he says ''It seems the son has not forgotten his fathers friend.. Interesting developments.'' He beings to draft two private letters, addressed to the King of Renatus and the other to the Kong of Aesterwald. The letter represents the mans good wishes to them both, and his support to their just cause, and finally that may the Creator's grace and blessing be upon them. With Regards.
  3. Ofcs I didn't write it, because if I had it would have been filled with threats about objects falling from the sky into bedroom windows and so on, but I was being a gentleman.
  4. As you enter the Church in the capital city of Oren, a deacon hands you a small booklet and tells you its a book of prayer made for the mass's, a downsized version of the True Scrolls and only containing sample prayers. Mercy Almighty and most merciful Creator, we have wandered and strayed from your ways like lost sheep. We have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts. We have offended against your holy laws. We have left undone those things that we ought to have done; and we have done those things that we ought not to have done; and there is no health in us. But you, O Lord, have mercy upon us sinners. Spare those who confess their faults. Restore those who are penitent, according to your promises declared to mankind in Horen our Lord. And grant, O most merciful Creator, for his sake, that we may live a disciplined, righteous and godly life, to the glory of your holy name. So say we all. ___ The whole universe testifieth to Thy generosity. Have mercy, then, upon me by Thy graciousness, and deal bountifully with me through the power of Thy sovereignty, and suffer me to enjoy near access to Thee by Thy manifold favors. Thou, truly, art the Great Giver, the Almighty, the Ever-Forgiving, the Most Bountiful." Acknowledgment and Praise we acknowledge thee to be the Lord. All the land doth worship thee : the Creator everlasting. To thee all Angels cry aloud : the Heavens, and all the Powers therein. To thee Aenguls and Daemons: continually do cry, Holy, Holy, Holy : Lord God of Horen; Heaven and earth are full of the Majesty : of thy glory. The glorious company of the Divines: praise thee. The goodly fellowship of the Prophets : praise thee. The noble army of Martyrs : praise thee. The holy Church throughout all the world : doth acknowledge thee; The Creator: of an infinite Majesty; Thine honourable, true : and favored Son; Also the Holy Light: the Comforter. Thou art the King of Glory : O Horen. Thou art the everlasting Son : of the Creator. When thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death : thou didst open the Kingdom of Heaven to all believers. Thou sittest at the right hand of God : in the glory of the Creator. We believe that thou shalt come : to be our Judge. We therefore pray thee, help thy servants : Make them to be numbered with thy Saints : in glory everlasting." ___ Thy unity is inscrutable, O my God, to all except them that have recognized Him Who is the Manifestation of Thy singleness and the Day-Spring of Thy oneness. Whoso assigneth a rival unto Him hath assigned a rival unto Thee, and whoso hath set up a peer for Him hath set up a peer for Thyself. No, no, none can withstand Thee in the whole of creation. Thou hast everlastingly been exalted far above all comparison and likeness. Thy oneness hath been demonstrated by the oneness of Him Who is the Dawning-Place of Thy Revelation. Whosoever denieth this, hath denied Thy unity, and disputed with Thee about Thy sovereignty, and contended with Thee in Thy realm, and repudiated Thy commandments. For the dead. Eternal rest give to him (her), Lord: and let perpetual light shine upon him (her). Offering it in the sight of the Most High. ___ Grant, O God, that while we lament the departure of this Thy servant (handmaid), we may always remember that we are most certainly to follow him (her). And give us grace to prepare for that last hour by a good life, that we may not be surprised by a sudden and unprovided death, but be ever watching, that, when Thou callest, we may, with the Bridegroom, enter into eternal glory: through Horen our Lord. Before eating. "Without Thy presence, nought, O Lord, is sweet, No pleasure to our lips can aught supply. Whether 'tis wine we drink or food we eat, Till Grace divine and Faith shall sanctify." ___ By His hand, we are all fed. Give us Lord, our daily bread. Please know that we are truly grateful, For every cup and every plateful. Guidance Bless me, heavenly Father, forgive my erring ways. Grant me strength to serve Thee, put purpose in my days. Give me understanding, enough to make me kind. So I may judge all people with my heart, not my mind. Teach me to be patient in everything I do, Content to trust Your wisdom and to follow after You. Help me when I falter and hear me when I pray, And receive me in Thy kingdom to dwell with Thee someday. For Overcoming Life's Hardships O Lord, we call upon You in our time of sorrow, That You give us the strength and will to bear our heavy burdens, until we can again feel the warmth and love of Your divine compassion. Be mindful of us and have mercy on us while we struggle to comprehend life's hardships. Keep us ever in Your watch, til we can walk again with light hearts and renewed spirits. For the sick Almighty and Eternal God, You are the everlasting health of those who believe in You. Hear us for Your sick servant (N...) for whom we implore the aid of Your tender mercy, that being restored to bodily health, he (she) may give thanks to You in Your Church. Through Horen our Lord. For Safe Travel God's Angels guard and keep you All the way that you must travel Till earth's days are past When blossoms fade and Time is fleeting fast In times of purest joy Or pain and fear God's Angels guard And keep you safe. ___ O Almighty and merciful God, who hast commissioned Thy angels to guide and protect us, command them to be our assiduous companions from our setting out until our return; to clothe us with their invisible protection; to keep from us all danger of war, of fire, of beasts, of fall and bruises, and finally, having preserved us from all evil, and especially from sin, to guide us to our heavenly home. Through Horen The Divine, our Lord. In Time of Danger O God, Who knowest us to be set in the midst of such great perils, that, by reason of the weakness of our nature, we cannot stand upright, grant us such health of mind and body, that those evils which we suffer for our sins we may overcome through Thine assistance. Through Horen our Lord. Amen. Prayer for battle & against evil Azendital, the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God cast into hell Ibless and all the evil spirits who prowl throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls. Act of Contrition O my God, I am heartfully sorry for having offended thee, and I detest all my sins because of Thy just punishment, but most of all because I have offended Thee my God, Who is all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace, to sin no more, and to avoid the near occasion of sin
  5. Here are the symptoms of autism. As you can see they are very broad and anyone can dispel all of them. A need for sameness and routines. For example, a child with autism may always need to eat bread before salad and insist on driving the same route every day to school. There is nothing wrong with doing the same routine. In fact, most people I know LIKE doing the same routine, as the brain learns repetitive tasks and stores them into memory. A change in routine can irritate some people. An unusual focus on pieces. Younger children with autism often focus on parts of toys, such as the wheels on a car, rather than playing with the entire toy. That's called attention to detail, that's actually a good personality trait. Preoccupation with certain topics. For example, older children and adults may be fascinated by video games, trading cards, or license plates. DUH! How many people love video games? When I was a kid, trading cards were all the rage. Failure to establish friendships with children the same age. There can be a lot of causes of this. For example, what if have interests that differ from other people? Maybe you like older music, maybe the people in your school like newer music. Also, you may be shy, and not a "people person". Again, these are personality traits, this does not suggest you have a mental disorder. Lack of empathy. People with autism may have difficulty understanding another person's feelings, such as pain or sorrow. For males, showing emotion is generally considered being a "wimp". Modern society teaches males to be tough, and to never cry. Also, some people are not as emotional as others. Again, these are personality traits. Stereotyped and repetitive use of language. People with autism often repeat over and over a phrase they have heard previously (echolalia). How many teenagers do I hear repeating the phrase "Yolo", "cool story bro", and the like? Or maybe if you lived during the 60s..."party on man" or "peace", was a common phrase. There is nothing wrong with repeating phrases. Difficulty understanding their listener's perspective. For example, a person with autism may not understand that someone is using humor. They may interpret the communication word for word and fail to catch the implied meaning. Not everyone has the same sense of humour. Watch comedians, they may tell a joke, that only a few people get. Also, everyone has a problem sometimes telling if someone is being sarcastic or not, it all has to do with how they use their voice. Delay in, or lack of, learning to talk. As many as 40% of people with autism never speak. Not everyone learns to talk early. Maybe the child was not taught how to speak at a younger age. Also, certain traumatic events can cause people to not speak. Significant problems developing nonverbal communication skills, such as eye-to-eye gazing, facial expressions, and body posture. Some people don't talk with their hands, some people don't like to make eye contact, does not mean they have this fake mental disorder. Also Asperger's. Children with Asperger's syndrome generally have difficulty interacting with others and often are awkward in social situations. They generally do not make friends easily. They have difficulty initiating and maintaining conversation. Gee, sounds just like one of the symptoms of autism. All of this has to do with environmental factors and personality traits. Children with this condition may develop odd, repetitive movements, such as hand wringing or finger twisting. OMG!, yet another symptom copied from the list for autism. A child with Asperger's syndrome may develop rituals that he or she refuses to alter, such as getting dressed in a specific order. Surprise surprise! Yet again, another copied symptom. Yet again, people don't like change in their routines. People with Asperger's syndrome may not make eye contact when speaking with someone. They may have trouble using facial expressions and gestures, and understanding body language. They also tend to have problems understanding language in context. WHOA! Yet again, another copy! Limited range of interests: A child with Asperger's syndrome may develop an intense, almost obsessive, interest in a few areas, such as sports schedules, weather, or maps. Nothing wrong with that. The kid who becomes obsessed with weather may become a meteorologist,the kid obsessed with sports schedules may get a job at ESPN. Coordination problems: The movements of children with Asperger's syndrome may seem clumsy or awkward. That's poor motor skills, NOT a mental disorder! Skilled or talented: Many children with Asperger's syndrome are exceptionally talented or skilled in a particular area, such as music or math. That's an issue? So Eisenstein and Beethoven had aspergers? Get real. The sooner people wake up, and realize the two "mental disorders" are nothing more than made up BS to make doctors/big pharma money, the better! To answer your question, there is nothing wrong with them they are normal people they are not faking anything but they are told they have it.
  6. Mental problems are all fake. Physiatric used to say that being gay is a mental illness and now they say there is something called autism and split personality and things like that I do not believe in any of it. Do I care if someone smokes pot or not or give a darn if its legal or not I do not. Because I know I am not taking no POT same reason I do not drink tap water, Governments wish to control the population by making them sedated and relaxed. Look up whats being pumped in your water.
  7. Best compromise make capitals a none raid zone. It well also raise activity in capital city's.

  10. God save our Emperor! Long live His Majesty! God save Godfrey! Send him victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us: God save Oren! O Lord our God arise, Scatter our enemies, And make them fall: Confound their politics, Frustrate their foreign tricks, On You our hopes we fix: God save us all. Thy blessed gifts in store, On him be pleased to pour; Long may he reign: May he defend our walls, And ever give us cause To sing with heart and voice God save Godfrey!

  19. ((I got linked this, and I could not just read and not write anything. I haven't had a good laugh like this in a while good one Charles.))
  20. Its exactly as IRL Shamans, or future tellers in simple words it can be ''Complete and utter bullshit not real just drug-side effects or it can be real and they can tell the future but it wont be something for example say oh I know the dwarfs are going to attack us in four weeks or something like that it might be something like ''Something bad is gonna happen or something good, vague.'' Anyway goodbye lotc again, until the Orcs ask me to post something again.
  21. (As requested by Austin, thanks to Crinks for the proofreading. Was made at first by myself and Blaw then when blaw vanished I kept fleshing it out.) Farseers are spiritual seers of nations and clans. Farseers are gifted warriors that can travel into the plane of spirits and speak with spirits invisible to the eyes of normal orcs. Farseers are troubled by visions of the future and use their insight to guide their people through troubled times. Although Farseers may seem wise and peaceful at first, they are formidable foes; when angered, their wrath is fierce. Spirits There are two types of Spirits Greater and Minor, The Greater Spirits are the ones created by Krug, the old father they were created by him feeling or practicing something, for example when Krug made fire he created the fire spirit when he felt anger he created the spirit of anger, minor spirits fall under the greater spirits as they are created from other orcs so when a orc feels anger for example one is created and they serve and fall under the domain of the greater spirits of their aspect. Spirits are not good nor evil they are what they choose to be at that time although spirits will never act out of just good well there is always something that they require or want to gain. Greater Spirits become strong or weak by the actions of Orcs, when Orcs praises a spirit or calls for the spirit or sacrifices for a spirit it gains power, if a spirit loses all mention by Orcs it whittles down and shrinks in power but does not die, as Greater spirits are Immortal for example the greatest of all spirits is Votar, the Spirit of the Hunt as Orcs mention him always for example when Orcs cry Glougaz Votar that means For The Hunt. Aspects All the Spirits started with only one aspect for example Enrohk has three aspects he started with Bloodlust and the rest he gained, by either consuming other spirits completely or by defeating another spirit that has more than one aspect. When a Greater Spirit is consumed it does not die, it just joins in a forced union with the other spirit meaning it can regain its freedom somehow. Spirits weaken when they gain many aspects because even though he has one aspect that is powerful he may weaken because the others are not, also one spirit will never be allowed to gain to many as other spirits will combine efforts to release aspects from that spirit, there is a delicate balance. Greater Spirits in the Spirit World rule vast domains and have countless of minor spirits under their control, they wage war, make peace and plot against and with each other. A example of how Greater spirits interact with the Orcs before the great revival of the Orcish race by Rex Mogroka. Mogroka was contacted by Enrohk a weak spirit at that time with only bloodlust, and the former Orcish government suppressed bloodlust and tried to control it it is said Enrohk gave Mogroka powers and with Mogroka’s ascent to power bloodlust was made free and Enrohk gained power. (Spirits and Elements are the same Orcs just classify spirits with element aspects as elements but in truth they are one of the same.) Votar - Spirit of the Hunt. Enrohk - Spirit of Bloodlust, Bloodshed, and War. Tesader Spirit of Shadows Fuxahr Spirit of Strength and Power Ebumohr Spirit of Despair Pefiemor Death Iarohm Pain Betailohn Festival and Drunkenness Udrubal Plague and Disease Aronebhal Learning, and Intelligence Fabohro Pity Ciuscu Life Agomoch Anger and Wrath Bruigig Earth Scathach Fire and formerly of war lost the aspect of war to Enrohk Bazur Wind Burghed Water Xomkug Darkness and Smoke Morbash Kloomping Xorag Fertility Bilge Decay and Laziness Bugrol Dreams and Sleep Igurg Smithing and Iron Hebub Envy and Jealousy Mor Tricks and Thievery Durgat Destruction Ghorza Travel Durz Speed and Agility Bor Discipline and Justice Lash Strife and conflict Garakh Ugliness Umog Magic and Spirituality Atub Self Sacrifice and selflessness Borgakh Hard work and Labor Bagrak Building Dura Love - Weakest of Spirits Nargol Courage and Steadfastness Durz Competition Rolfish Assassins and Poison Durgat Birth and offspring (- Blawharag depict it as a feorc with 600 boobs - Mogroka lol on Lotc never would happen :P) Ugor Lust Badbog Gluttony and Greed. Bubyaghy Building, sturdiness and invention - Patron of Goblins Shagar Pride Hurus Patience and planning Uxomoch Command and Leadership Suvirum Diligence Eurin Rain and Farming Sapuodahl Fear, intimidation and sadness Ublulhar Hope and new beginnings Uxazozur Doubt Pauxahru Arrogance and Stupidity Heechoi Slavery Eseozohn Revenge and Vengeance Zarkai Savagery And many many more (Can be created when needed basically Spirits can be countless as they are whatever Krug felt, or touched or did) What do Farseers do Farseers are like the old men of a clan, or nation they are the wise men, spiritual healers, lorekeepers(Story tellers), they also can see in the future predict things for example a farseer can have a dream about a great defeat or a great victory or a famine. They also act as the guide for orcs between them and Spirits. Farseers can walk on the spirit planes explore it and interact with spirits there its very dangerous if a orc dies there then he is dead in his real world, how to do so is hidden it is contained within the Or’Gok scrolls. ‘’Basicly a shaman sits down and meditates and then travels to the spirit realm with his spirit the secret on how to do so and the words said are within the Or’Gok scrolls that Mogroka’Gorkil has. Farseers also act as Healers, not in the magic sense though more of the herbal and using natural medicine that they make from their surrounding environment. Far Seers are very important to Orcish Culture as they are there keepers, and wisdom tellers when someone is in doubt they go to the farseers for guidance or if they are cursed by the spirits and so on. They also can act as warriors, they can wield the power of spirits fueling themselves with power or other orcs enhancing their abilities. Details What can Farseers do with magic, Farseers unlike elementalist can not cast magic in the same way. So they can not shoot a fireball or waterball or any of that sorta thing. Lets take the example of Mogroka Gorkil, what can he do as offensive magic, one thing only cast lighting which is called Krug’s Wrath but he only came to do that for being a well advanced Farseer, in the current magic system tier 5 Mogroka would be more than that to even be able to cast lighting as he has spent over (2 years in life) as a shaman he can do that even Mogroka his powers can be spent casting it after three casts. Farseer is more about blessings, or gifts of the spirits its more about empowering oneself or others with the spirits powers. For example blessing others with Enrohks Claw makes them more bloodthirsty and more fierce. Other blessings may enhance physical powers, for example strength or giving him the power to withstand tiredness. Or some can be used on natural remedies, lets say Mogroka makes a medicine for stomach pain, it works just fine but it takes longer for the treatment to work, but he can use the a blessing from the spirits to make the medicine work faster and be more effective. Farseer, is more of a future teller, he can walk the planes of spirits by going into a deep meditation and interact with them. This is more of a rp purpose and does not contain magic really nor can it affect players badly in anyway. For example a farseer, can go into a plane of spirits and find out that Enrohk is mad at the orcs and he needs to be appeased so the farseer goes back to his plane and tells the orcs of that, making a rp event for the the race. He might say for example we require to hunt and kill four Creatures, and sacrifice them to Enrohk. Or maybe the hunt spirit, wants to grant the orcs a blessing but requires something done, like hunting a great beast and then the orcs gets blessed, the blessing is nothing really its just a roleplay, event and the blessing may say oh the orcs for a week we'll have a plentiful hunt. Farseers, also can summon rain, but not one farseer can do that it must be at least four, and the ceremony can be a long one, and rain might not occur depending if they pleased the rain spirit enough or not. ‘’Of course this is just another purely rp focused event more so than magic that can benefit them.’’ Far seers main source of knowledge comes from entering the spiritual world, also called the spiritual dimension. They can also learn the ability to heal from their journeys to the spiritual world. In this world they may also acquire spirit guides who make sure the far seer is guided safely in their travels in the spiritual world. Note that it is possible for the far seer to have more than one spiritual guide. Being the spiritual world also cleanses negative energies that confuse or pollute the Orc. When I say ‘’Healing’’ it is not the normal type of healing that other magic user have that heal wounds and so on. When a Farseer heals it means that he interacts with the malevolent spirit that has cursed or interacts with the patient. These ailments may be either purely physical afflictions or purely mental afflictions. Things like diseases are physical afflictions and are cured by gifting, flattering, threatening, or beating the spirit that is ailing the patient. The far seer may have to do more than one of these to cure the patient, and even in some cases all of them. If all else fails, or if the far seer is confident enough, they can resort to pure violence and attempt to defeat the spirit in battle. The spirit recognizes defeat by being shown a token extracted from it, though the far seer may attempt to fool the spirit by showing it a fraudulent token, making the spirit believe it has been bested. If the spirit notices the token is fraudulent it may be impressed that the far seer tried to fool it, or it may choose to just ignore the token and continue ailing the patient. When the spirit is sufficiently impressed with the far seer, it will retreat curing the patient of the ailments that it was causing. Mental ailments are things like persistent terror caused by traumatic experiences. These are handled the same way that physical ailment spirits are. So basicly a Farseer, for example can beat the Orc that is affected to try to cure him. Lets a Orc has a cough the Farseer might try to stuff the Orcs mouth with things, to not allow him to breath or they may punch him the throat. Well that cure him maybe or maybe not its more of providing fun rp its not much as magically curing a person. Farseers, are a pencil of their community, for example leading ceremonies of burning of dead orcs, to try to make their travel to the Ancestors realm easier. Or by being advisors to leaders, or to normal people, by seeing peoples future or fortunes, by warning there people of incoming doom or something more pleasant. Beliefs of Farseers. Spirits exist and they play important roles both in individual lives and in Orc society. The Farseer can communicate with the spirit world. Spirits can be benevolent or malevolent. The Farseer can treat sickness caused by malevolent spirits. The Farseer can employ trance inducing techniques to incite visionary ecstasy and go on vision quests. The Farseers spirit can leave the body to enter the supernatural world to search for answers. The Farseer evokes animal images as spirit guides, omens, and message-bearers. The Farseer can tell the future, scry, throw bones/runes, haruspex and perform other varied forms of divination Far seers work on the premise that the visible world is pervaded by forces that are invisible. The far seers believe that these invisible forces are spirits which affect the lives of the living. Though the causes of disease lie in the spiritual realm, the far seer may also employ methods in the physical realm to heal. Though the common way to heal is through the far seer "entering the body" of the patient to confront the ailing spirit head on. Healing the patient if the far seer succeeds in banishing it. Most far seers have expert knowledge of medicinal plants from their native area, and thus can provide a herbal treatment if needed, which is often. In many places, after obtaining permission from the spirits of the area, the far seer can learn directly from the plants. Harnessing their effects and healing properties. Practice Generally, the farseer enters the spirit world by effecting a transition of consciousness, entering into an ecstatic trance, either autohypnotically or through the use of entheogens. The methods employed are diverse, and are often used together Chants Farseers use chants to please the spirits or get them into a trance, all chants use the old blah not the current blah, so the Farseer needs to learn the Old blah. Paraphernalia Farseers may have various kinds of paraphernalia Drum – The drum is used by Farseers. The beating of the drum allows the Farseer to achieve an altered state of consciousness or to travel on a journey between the physical and spiritual worlds. Farseer drums are generally constructed of an animal-skin stretched over a bent wooden hoop, with a handle across the hoop. Feathers – Feathers are often used in ceremonies and in individual healing rituals. Rattle – Also used in ceremonies in traditional ways in their blessings and ceremonies. Pipe – Used for smoking various tobaccos and psychoactive herbs Sword/Staff – A holy sword/Staff will always be used in the practice to protect the Farseer from wandering "evil" spirits as he travels to the spirit world. Shake – The Farseer begins his practice by rattling, which turns into a shake. It is the process of communicating with his shamanistic spirits to guide him to the spirit world. Mortar and Pestle – Used to smash herbs So all in all Farseers, do not really wield a lot of magic, they have some but its not offensive magic. There more of storytellers, deviationists, advisors, and spiritual leaders, more like Priests. (Some well say well Mog why don't farseers, really have magic that's offensive, because in all honestly I never really liked that type of magic really I never liked any magic, that can harm someone, I liked how the druids had it and disliked how the mages where. Even the empowering oneself and others, that's maybe a belief thing maybe it doesn't really happen, I just left it there so when the MA Plugin comes out you can have something, we discussed turning into spiritual wolfs etc but I did not include that here, this is more what it is now rather when the MA plugin comes out.) (Also if I forgot something Ned Lud is around he can fix and edit anything here, any questions ask Austin and he can tell me and il tell him to answer.) (So truly Farseers, do not need any magic at all, they are the same as Red Indian shamans, its more of belief to me, any magical powers that are wanted to be added here, can be added by two people Ned Lud and Austin as I see it they are the only two that know about Farseers, of-course I mean that for the MA Plugin if it ever happens.)
