Don't tell me we come from this armpit of a map.

"Bring what you can and meet me in the Dragonsquare Forum of Johannesburg!" The dark elf explains to the note!

"Good day to you all, denizens of the Empire and it's friends. I seek a list of wares for my estate, if you are able to bring me any, or perhaps all then contact me and I'll have you paid for your troubles. -Spruce planks, 5 coppers per plank (0.05 mina) -Logs of oak, 1 imperial crowns each (1 mina) -Purple and yellow glass panes, 5 imperial crowns each. -Bookshelves, 5 imperial crowns each. -Hardened clay, 5 coppers per square meter (per block, obviously) -Bricks, 10 coppers per square meter (0.1 mina) -Two properly bred horses, 200 imperial crowns each ((das rite, 200 minas! idk the average price)) -Paintings and frames, 20 imperial crowns each. -A kit of iron tools, 50 imperial crowns. If you have a friend or supplier who may have such items, please do ask them for me, my friends. -Mithius Dalma."

As a northern germanic I can relate to some of the advice. I unintentionally pronounce 'th' sounds as S at times : (

Small notes are left in every tavern, noticeboard and townsquare in Oren friendly lands! "Good day men and women of Axios, I seek branches of every kind, cloth, flint, oaks and spruces. If you have any of the requested goods then please send a letter to Harald Bengtfors ((Jonificus)) regarding your price and stock. Thank you for your time. -Harald Bengtfors."

Sorry, Oreners don't RP. For real though, this sounds like fun! +1

"Ah, the righteous freedom fighters of the dreadlands. Liberating yet another innocent young girl from the malevolent hands of the tyrannical empire." Harald scoffs loudly to one of his stewards before ordering the city watch to have the fliers removed from the capital.

The Snow Men A Snow Man is an anthropomorphic snow creature often built by children in regions with sufficient snowfall. In winter cultures, typical Snow Men consist of three large snowballs of different sizes with some additional accoutrements for facial and other features. Common accessories include branches for arms and a rudimentary smiley face, with a carrot standing in for a nose. Human clothing, such as a hat or scarf, may be included. Low-cost and availability are the common issues, since snowmen are usually abandoned to the elements once completed. Creation Snow becomes suitable for packing when it approaches its melting point and becomes moist and compact. Making a Snow Man of powdered snow is difficult since it will not stick to itself, and if the temperature of packing snow drops, it will form an unusable denser form of powdered snow called crust. Thus, the best time to build a Snow Man is usually in the next warm afternoon directly following a snowfall with a sufficient amount of snow. Using more compact snow allows for the construction of a large snowball by simply rolling it until it grows to the desired size. If the snowball reaches the bottom of the grass it may pick up traces of grass, gravel or dirt. In Haense and Urguan, snowmen are built with three spheres depicting the head, torso, and lower body. The usual practice is to then decorate and optionally dress the snowman. Sticks can be used for arms, and a face is traditionally made with stones or coal for eyes and a carrot for a nose. Some like to dress their Snow Men in clothing such as a scarf or hat, while others prefer not to risk leaving supplies out doors where they could easily be stolen or become stuck under melting ice. Strengths and Weaknesses +These creatures are for the most part used as a substitute to watchdogs, their cold, piercing coalpiece eyes making any would-be bandit think twice before setting out to their prey. The spirit of Krugmas runs deep in the souls of these coldhearted men of winter, fueling the black hate within their eyes. They will also at times scare threats away by looking even more intensively into their eyes. +The blunt carrot noses of the Snow Men are not to be trifled with. Survivors of Snow Man attacks all report of the hurtful bruises they've been afflicted by these sentinels of snow. Growing up to 10 inches, their noses can annoy you viciously at close range. Though brittle, they do not bend easily, a fight with a Snow Man can last entire minutes or two. +The Snow Men have unmatched stamina and endurance. Their Dwarven and Northern masters make good use of this, designating them an area which they will never leave from untill the heat takes them. They can withstand freezing temperatures that no amount furcoats can protect a mortal man from. -The Snow Men have an awful tendency to snicker out cheesy lines when in combat, EX: "You need some Vitamin K...... for Kill." that just turn out awkward for both parts. -Extremely short lifespan. Rarely surpassing two months. -Crippling depression causing them to become solitary, meanspirited creatures that never leave their lair. Their civilization has yet to come upon the innovation of alcohol to dull their existential dread with. -Complete lack of movement. Their combat, though admittedly somewhat of a nuisance, consists primarily of sheer bad luck on the opponent's side. Like say, slipping on the ice and getting a carrot in the eye. -Their leader, The Snow King, is not really taken very seriously. One of the leading causes to their kind's enslavement. His permanent smile having made his many threatening claims to the Emperors of Oren and the Kings of Urguan only making them laugh cheerfully. RED LINES: -You cannot play a Snow Man outside of winter months. -You cannot leave the tile of snow of which you were created upon. -You must deliever cheesy action hero lines when confronted with threatening forces. -The smile never leaves. Frown and you are breaking one of the cornerstones of this lore. -Please remember to RP out the existential crisis which a Snow Man is always going through. -The carrot cannot grow larger than 10 inches.

"S... Sch-- The hell is this?" Says a confused commoner.

Karl somehow feels less safe behind the three great walls of Felsen... Seriously though, I wouldn't really have anything against this kind of machinery as long as it's not something that can be mass produced or other groups / individuals being able to get the technology through whatever RP means (though obviously not manufacturing the same excellency that the renowned dwarven smiths can do !)
