The Just Society; a Josephite Vision The Merriment of Horenites, Equal. (P. Carrington 1769) The common man walks down the street, he passes by a noblewoman and a man of the army. They struck in conversation, with each treating each other as equals. A gaggle of other unique, equally important, citizens gather about them and all enjoy a great bout of merriment. None treat each other with disrespect, and if they do it is in a manner of jest and met with equal jest! Even the dog eats well, so treated by his kindly masters. All are joined in a fraternal union. A brotherly union. A humanly union. This is the ideal society. This is the future all should pursue, one in which the children of Horen are joined not in contempt or split by class, but instead lifted up and finding purpose within themselves. The arts flourish, there is just war, and all bear the burdens of society equally. Long are we from the time of the streltsy and other peasants, but the fight is not yet won. It may well never be won, but if that is true we should pursue it nonetheless. This society cannot be attained while we fling **** at one another like monkeys in the faraway jungles. This society cannot be attained when the common man feels ostracized from society because of their status when the common man is but a servant and not his own master! The Josephites seek to protect the rights of man and of man’s world. In our natural state, all men are equal and all are key instruments of this thing we call existence. The party of the Josephites stands for the importance of the common person, affordable taxes, and the unalienable rights to life, liberty, and trial. The ideal society, a romantic and unattainable goal, must be strived for as we say, nonetheless. This pursuit will be achieved in the lifting of the welfare of each and every man. An ideal society, pervasive and impossible. But a just one, not so! This is what the Josephite platform seeks. To chip away at the unmoving stone of time and worldly oppression, to lighten the load on the common man and incorporate them more thoroughly with the purpose of our society! The Josephites, like Mister Elendil, have fought in our imperial campaigns to secure peace and safety for all. The Josephites, like Sir Terrence May, have fought in the parliament to oppose unjust rules and speedy criminal systems that would improperly convict the common man. The Josephites, like I, Peridot Carrington, wish to fight day in and day out for a Just Society. One in which all men can flourish and all men’s souls find purpose, fairness, and achievement.

The Imperial Association of the Performing Arts Est. Anno Domini 1769, Under the Company of Thespians and Revelers About this Worshipful Guild The Imperial Association of the Performing Arts, established 1769, is a guild under the blanket administration of The Livery Company of Thespians and Revelers. The corporation is a cooperative assembly of verbalist artists. Formed by Peridot Beryl Carrington, the guild represents the interests of comedians, spoken word poets, musicians, actors, playwrights, and other performance-based artists. The guild organizes events for these performers to enlighten the masses, spread their so-saught after fame, and, of course, make money. The primary goal of this merry association is to bring entertainment to all the crowds of Oren, whether it be a high society gala or the local tavern. The Chamber of Romantics The guild is governed in a loose manner, so as not to oppose the freedoms of its performers. Each man or woman is their own, the guild serves more as a means to hone their craft, create bonds with the rest of the performance community, and find jobs. Further, membership is accompanied by a license from the Company of Thespians and Revelers; a member of this guild is a member of that company as well and attains all rights that come with that status. Despite this loose structure, there are basic rankings amongst the group: the organization of this ranking is called the Chamber of Romantics. A key necessary to understanding our organization is that rights afforded to each rank are relatively fluid and ceremonial in nature. Each performer, regardless of their rank in the Chamber, is an individual and has the right to their pursue own activities without oversight. Director-President: The Director-President is the chief amongst the Chamber of Romantics. They are charged with the overall management of the guild and organizing guild-wide events. Further, they are charged with the duty of the purse and are the primary representative to the Company of Thespians and Revelers. The Director-President acts as a manager for all artists and will represent them to potential clients. Master: A master has proved themselves a capable performing artist. Whatever their form may be, they are recognized across the land as a titan of art. Within the guild, masters can induct official apprentices whom they can teach in the arts. Lesser Romantics can also take on students, but these students will not be immediately inducted as apprentices. Journeyman: A journeyman has proved they are above instruction from a master. They can provide their own lessons and earn the right to independent representation. Journeymen are afforded the ability to organize their own events, incorporating other guild members as they please. Apprentice: Usually young, the apprentice is just learning their craft. Apprentices are assigned to a master of their craft if there is one. If not, they are supervised by the Director-President when possible in their performances. Relatively, the apprentice has free reign on their journey to becoming a full-fledged artist as there is no true plan to make somebody into an artist. The Enlightened Endeavor: Stagecraft While the guild does indeed field a wide array of sound-based performers, ranging from musicians to poets to comedians, the primary and recurring function of these artists is the pursuit of drama. Those who come onto the company as thespians will find themselves as the actors of a variety of plays. Further, the company seeks out talented playwrights and directors to aid in the creation and production of these spectacles. The entirety of the guild is incorporated, with musicians and comedians both being brought into the unifying art of stagecraft. Associated Playwrights: Playwrights with associated status are those who primarily identify with the troupe itself. These playwrights can produce their entirely unique scripts and utilize the expert artists and thespians of the guild at their will. The guild, ultimately the Director-President, will act as a producer for the playwright’s plays and coordinate times, venues, and handle the marketing side of the art. These talented writers need to make money after all! Associated Thespians: Actors with associated status are those thespians who run with the troupe and see regular employment in the many dramas set by the company. Thespians of the guild rely on the playwrights (whom they can also be themselves, as artists can be both actor and writer) to provide them with plays and will hone their craft through such endeavors. Actors receive a paygrade from the Director-General via commission of the plays and an actor’s respected role within said play.

Actors Needed! AVERSATRIX A tragedy scripted by Peridot Carrington for Peter III, Holy Orenian Emperor Vibius de Sola, Marshal of the Chivay Empire To whom it may concern, I, Peridot Carrington, am seeking a handful of actors to partake in one of the great tragedies of our history. I took upon myself to complete this play, initially began so many years ago by Blessed Pontiff Lucien III. In the archive, I did discover a half-written draft and have brought this to the big stage. I require men, or women, who have a love for drama and the arts. The open characters are as follows: Vibius de Sola: Marshal of humanity. Caesar. Vibius has a decorated history serving the Chivays and the Empire. He has won many battles and proven himself a man of valor. He has respect from all of humanity for his marshal ability. The hero of the play, he leads a coup against the emperor Robert for alleged crimes against humanity. He falls to desperate actions to retain control of Petrus after overthrowing the Emperor. Robert Chivay: The Emperor of Man! Robert has a grand duel with Vibius and then serves as a reminder for his crimes later on. He avoids capture and his flight serves to drive Vibius astray. Blind Man: The blind beggar is present at the start and end of the play. He warns Vibius of his fate and serves to foreshadow the grave ending of the play. Vibian Soldier: A side-character. The loyal warrior of the marshal. Throughout the play he protects and serves the hero; he will have a grand duel at the end of the affair. Richard de Bar: A vassal of the de Savoie family. Richard is the leader of the Order of St. Amyas. The group has pledged their sword to Vibius, as they view Robert as an apostate emperor. He stands as a voice of piety against Vibius’ rule in the city. Amyasman: A side-character. Amyasman serves as the soldier of Richard de Bar. (Can also play the Decterum Soldier) Decterum Soldier: A side-character. A messenger of the House Carrion. The Decterum soldier is a messenger and brief character. (Can also play the Amyasman) Caius de Sola: Caius rides to reinforce his father at the end of the play. He serves as an honorable foil to the distraught character that Vibius turns into. Michael: A citizen of Petrus! Michael welcomes the Vibian host into the city and partakes in a protest against Vibius’ wroth actions. John: A citizen of Petrus! John welcomes the Vibian host into the city and partakes in a protest against Vibius’ wroth actions. Priest: The priest leads a protest against Vibius’ harsh actions as dictator.

For the Sarkozics it was a strange ceremony. Never having witnessed a cossack style wedding, they were quite perturbed by the slicing of hands! In bloody marriage, the young Anya Sarkozic became Anya Ivanovich; the new Baroness of Vilacz! The shock of the Adrian nobility wore off as they were marched into their own keep for merriment. A Cordobonese troubador began to play many songs and all enjoyed their vodka, their wine, and ale! The Houses of Sarkoz and Ivanov have been married! The cossacks of the Czenian Hetmanate have settled beneath the Castle Vilacz. All is well, the land of the Adrian's becomes juvibalant and merry with the recent developments.

Laszlo Ivanovich smiles as the cossack camp begins to assemble!
