  1. I see nothing? Your pictures are broken.
  2. Brandon comes across the bark and reads it thoughtfully. He leaves it on the ground and returns home, pondering the meaning of it. After a few hours consideration, he takes a sheet of parchment and a quill, writes his response, and then returns to the chapel, pinning his note next to the bark. "I think that if I were the Creator, all powerful and all knowing, I would grow quickly bored with my powers. I do not know true enlightenment, and perhaps if I did I would see nothing boring in all-knowing, all-powerful benevolence, but as it is, I do. What I think I would do then, were I God, I would split myself into millions of creatures and places, and live out millions of lives, and I would discover enlightenment one million times, before returning to myself. That, I think is the flaw in your argument. I do not think that GOD is a figure, a man, who created us in his image but rather, we are all pieces of GOD, created by him out of himself. As for natural disasters, I do not think that GOD favors any of his children over each other. In a flood, the fish thrive. In a forest fire, houses burn, but the forest is cleansed. Such is the way of things." He would notice the cloaked figure, but not say anything.

  5. "It is a good thing that our peaceful inquisition is lead by father Svatabor, who, as we all know, is the most peaceful of men." says Brandon.
  6. If you feel like it, you can check out the old lore for Easterners here. All of it's mostly dead now, but if you feel like it you could put some of this lore into your current. Also, if you have any questions about old Easterners, you can PM me or Taufirewarrior or Yopplwasupxxx. I like your new lore a lot, good luck!
  7. I love you Norland guys,

  8. Brandon had hid on the rooftops when he heard the men. He had not seen much, but he remembered one face in particular. He sat in a small Luciensport home, sword resting at his side "To see the face of an enemy is one thing. But to see a friend is another. This must end. "
  9. Brandon scratches out the word "Noble's" and replaces it with "Nobles" on the poster. He also scratches out the title word "Armenelos" on the poster and replaces it with "Landscar"
  10. Brandon uses the leftover salt piled up to form into the shape of a castle, for lack of sand
  11. "I shall attend!" Shouts Brandon ((5e is disgusting. It all went downhill after 3.5
  12. When the authentication servers go down I feel like a herion addict without a fix. Like right now. Anybody got heroin, to distract me?

  16. The Grand Council of the Rabbi stand on a balcony, their people gathered below them. After a few moments of silence, Chellah, the oldest and wisest Rabbi opens his mouth to speak, clutching an aged Torah in his hands “And the Lord saw that the evil of Man was great on the Earth, and He became grieved in His heart.” And the Lord said, "I will blot out man, whom I created, from upon the face of the earth, from man to cattle to creeping thing, to the fowl of the heavens, for I regret that I made them." And God said to Noah, "The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth has become full of robbery because of them, and behold I am destroying them from the earth. And I, behold I am bringing the flood, water upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which there is the spirit of life, from beneath the heavens; all that is upon the earth will perish.” This was the tale of the First Flooding of the Earth, and now we are beyond the Second. When Yaweh saw his people’s death, he took pity on us, for we are His chosen people, and so once again, the world was Flooded once more, but this time with fire. But as the fire cleansed the earth, so did Yaweh spare heathens- criminals, thieves, bandits, and simple survivors. Why? To test our faith. For these unbelievers, we have two options. We must peacefully convert them to the ways of Yaweh, to spare them from Hell. But those who cannot be converted must be destroyed with haste, lest their heathen ways take hold. This is Yaweh’s plan, eternal, and we are his people.” He pauses for effect and continues. “Now is the time for action, as Yaweh wills it. We will send eight Ayder out, each in a simple rowboat and then, once on shore they will go on foot: north, south, east, and west; and northwest, southeast, northeast, and southwest. The parties shall go out to scout and see if they can find anything- factories to scavenge from, other survivors, or even bandits. They shall move carefully with Yahweh’s blessing, and not stir trouble, nor be tempted by greed. Furthermore, all firearms not directly in use by the Ayder are to be turned in to craftsmen, who will study their workings to see if they can be replicated or repaired. In addition, all Ayder not on direct patrol will scavenge sandbags, bricks, and anything else they can find to begin building a wall around the port of our great city of New Zion. The wall should be sturdy, and high enough that you need a small platform to see above it. From this wall we will have regular patrols, and at all time have men monitoring to see if any should land in our port. We will allow in any friendly survivors and give them shelter and food. However, they are required to leave all weapons with the guard force before being integrated to our society. We shall also fly our flags high in the air to attract all people to our great city. Any radio systems we can find shall advertize our city of New Zion as a great haven for survivors. We will send a ferry back and forth across the sea to bring any new citizens in.” With that, the Rabbi leave the balcony and personally assign the soldiers to their missions. Summary: 3000 citizens 830 skilled craftsmen 40 gunsmiths 40 cobblers 60 tailors 30 blacksmiths 80 fine artists (painters, jewlers, musicians, etc.) 150 engineers (mechanical, electrical, etc.) 30 plumbers 30 electricians 240 municipal workers (teachers, builders, firefighters, doctors/healthcare workers, architects, etc.) 50 carpenters 50 masons 20 livestock breeders 30 veterinarians 1000 unskilled laborers, assorted 100 skilled merchants/buisness owners 500 farmers/fishers and food producers. 750 soldiers 300 infantry 300 archers 75 highly skilled, elite infantry 75 highly skilled, elite archers Usable Guns: Mauser-Norris Model 67/69 (x8) Mannlicher M1895 (x10) Short Magazine Lee-enfield mk.III (x9) Mauser Model 1887 (x5) Beretta M1951 (x3) M1941 Johnson Light Machine Gun (x2) 82-pm-41 (x1) Ithica Model 37 (x1) (6 shots) Unusable Guns: Mauser-Norris Model 67/69 (x10) (84 rounds) Mannlichter m1895 (x9) (77 rounds) Short Magazine Lee-Enfield Mk.III (x15) (108 rounds) Mauser Model 1887 (x4) (35 rounds) Baretta m1951 (x4) (8 clips) Wz.35 Anti-tank rifle (x1) (12 rounds) Actions (in chronological order): Flags of New Zion are being raised and across all radio channels people are advertizing New Zion as a haven for survivors. From the buildings, a Rabbi uses a telescope to watch the mainland and see if there is any immediate danger. If there is none, a ferry is operated, using all remaining fuel in the city, scavenged from cars, planes and any reserves they can find. The boat is brought to the mainland with 12 squadrons of men on it (6 of which are on a different mission), and shut off to conserve fuel. The soldiers who are staying hole up in the ferry office, making it as defensible as possible, and raise a New Zion flag above it. They demand that any approaching lower their weapons and enter the office to be taken to New Zion, where the weapons are confiscated, they are searched, and then kept under close watch. Once a minimum of 15 people arrive, the ferry will leave back for New Zion carrying its new passengers. The guns are given to the gunsmiths and other weapons are given to the Ayder. Squadrons regularly patrol through the city to keep peace, and there are always at least 3 stationed directly at the port to watch for anybody entering and exiting. People that enter are greeted cautiously but non-aggressively, their weapons confiscated, and they are brought to the recruitment office to see what job they will eventually take. Eight four-man squadrons of soldiers will move in eight directions from the city: North, South, East, West; and northeast, southwest and southeast. The groups are armed as follows: North Group 2 elite, highly skilled infantry, one with a fair quality spear and the other well with a sturdy wooden club. 2 elite, highly skilled archers, one with a bow and 24 arrows and the other with a sling and a bag of about 100 pebbles. All four are armed with knives of varying quality. South Group 2 elite, highly skilled infantry, both with fair quality spears. 2 archers, both with slings and bags of 100-ish pebbles. All four are armed with knives of varying quality. East Group 2 elite, highly skilled infantry, one with a low quality sword and the other with a well made club. Two archers, one with an Ithica Model 37 shotgun with 6 shots and one armed a bow and 24 arrows. All four are armed with knives of varying quality. Northeast Group 2 elite, highly skilled infantry, both armed with sections of metal piping 2 elite, highly skilled archers, 1 with a bow and arrow and 24 arrows and the other with 10 throwing knives. All four are armed with knives of varying quality. Southeast Group 2 elite, highly skilled infantry, both armed with metal crowbars 2 elite, highly skilled archers, both with bows and 24 arrows each. All four are armed with knives of varying quality. The groups will move a two day mission, exploring for one day and coming back on the second, filling out maps and marking down all places of interest--bandits, factories, towns, houses, anything, but will stay as quiet and stealthy as possible. They will not engage in combat unless absolutely necessary and try to remain undetected by anybody while filling out their maps. They will remain together and not split up and will have at least one person keeping watch at all times. They will travel light and only eat dry, uncooked food kept inside their pockets. They will sleep in bedrolls with watch changing every two hours, and not light any fires, make any noise, or contact anybody. (MOD PLS) All usable and broken guns and all ammunition not in use by the away-squads will be turned over to gunsmiths, who will examine them and try to find ways to replicate the gun parts, fix the broken ones, and manufacture more guns and ammo. (MOD PLS) All construction workers and builders will work with the Ayder that are not on patrol around the city in constructing a wall/barricade around the land side of the city, covering all entrances and exits. The wall will be sturdy and high enough that you cannot see over the top of it, but you can easily use small platforms to look over the top and defend. There will be minor repairs done on any of the walls on Portside that need fixing. (MOD PLS)
  17. Shitpost of the worst kind (in a good way, of course)
  18. I'm interested and online from 5:00 - 7:00 pretty normally, in PST time. Do you have a skin?
  19. A note is taped up next to one of the posters: "I have captured your halfling criminal. I will return him to you after a bounty of 200 mina is put in a bank account under the name Maxamilian Marsh."((Transfer mina to MaxGemini))
  20. I really like it, but I wish that it was just a tiny bit less Russian, as in not using direct translated Russian words (Da, niet, tsar, etc). Out is fantastic, though
  21. I've got loads of these: Canadian 100 dollar notes smell like maple syrup Gay and Lesbian Kingdom of the Coral Sea Islands, or the Gay Kingdom of the Coral Sea, is an independent micronation formed by LGBT people in Australia in 2004. When a male bee orgasms, his testicles explode and he dies. Fun, right? The phrase "rule of thumb" is derived from an old English law which stated that you couldn't beat your wife with anything wider than your thumb. Charlie Chaplain once entered a Charlie Chaplain look-alike contest... and won third place. Graffiti is plural; the singular form is Graffito. If you were to call somebody a "*****", you would not be referring to any part of the female anatomy--rather, it is short for pusillanimous, which means "timid" or "cowardly", and came to be associated with women because sexism. When rubber was scarce due to inability to create it synthetically, bread used to be used instead of rubber for erasers on pencils.
  22. If I ever decide to do an AMA, please shoot me in the head, unless I'm at a point where anybody would have anything interesting to ask me.
