Reckless Banzai Screamer

The Fisher King throws his hands up into the air and shouts back at the Konig of the Swampland. "WHAT FAWK MAN? There ees no swamp up heeyah. Check back anothah time when we covah more region!" The easterner man swings his frozen halibut around, trying to shoo Shreck'Dom away so that he may go look for swamp creatures.

A return letter is sent to Prince Vydra with the Piscatory seal of the Fisher King. "Dear Prince Vydra, At this moment in time the Piscatoris River is still thawing out rendering our fishing trawlers useless until the ice is gone. In response we have mostly been focusing on trophy catches in Greater Hanseti to sell to the highest bidders. I do have one young man however that enjoys fishing further south. If you could respond back with the sort of fish you are after and how many crates, we can work out a reasonable price. God Bless, The Fisher King II " Fuckah whare))

"Apologies for the late response." The note begins. "I've been busy with making business arrangements. You have been accepted, I look forward to sailing with you. The Creator welcomes all men who truly wish to seek him out. Only two things are eternal, mister William. The Creator and his promise of the Seven Skies. Anyway, Deus Magnus. We will speak soon."

"Bah, Hai okay. You are accepted..." The Fisher King mumbles, wishing he didn't feed the malnourished easterner child. Now it wouldn't go away.

"You've been accepted, brothah Wombak. I'm most happy to see join and I look forward to sailing with you."

The Fisher King smiles upon seeing a Bishop of the Church join, let alone a good acquaintance of his from days old. "Brother Rags you are more than accepted. When the river thaws I will teach how to hunt whale!" The notes reads.

The Fisher King reviews each of the applications together, smiling as he thought of the Campbell-Meridian household fishing together off the Piscatoris River. Return letters are sent swiftly, all to the Campbell Household. "Adrian Meridian and Ciara Campbell are both accepted. Report to the guild house swiftly."

The Fisher King reads over the sent in application and his face lights up, having thought Ellian was dead. He did not recognize the surname Petal however but felt something in his gut saying this was indeed the same Ellian he thought of. Wanting to keep it professional though, the returned letter is kept short and simple. "You have been accepted. Report to the guild house on the main street of Vanderfell closest to the pier. May God guide you safely." The Fisher King nods to himself in approval of Faiz Kharadeen's son joining the guild. His expectations of the teenager were growing after seeing his previous bountiful catch and he writes a quick return letter. "You have been accepted, young Kharadeen. Make your father proud and report back to the guild house. I assume you know where already." It had been quite some time since The Fisher King saw Quinlan. He didn't approve of his answer to the religion question but having already known the man to be of strong faith and compassion for living things, he did not hesitate to write the acceptance note. "Brother in arms, you have been accepted. It has been quite some time and I hope your journey back home is a blessed one. Deus Magnus." The Fisher King writes a return note. "As per our agreement you will be my captain and I shall assist you in your personal request. You will be the first to undergo baptism by sea and become a Piscator. I shall get into contact with Bishop Rags immediately. Other than that, I look forward to sailing with you."

(If you're interested in making a trade pact with the guild, send a letter to The Fisher King. If you're interested in having us fish waters near your POC, this can also be included in a trade pact. I can also make some sort of ecosystem thing for those near large bodies of water to help with their town rp, even if they aren't interested in an IC trade pact I like fish. Lel.)

((I'll be joining the Navy after summer so I thought it'd be nice to make my own guild and contribute to LOTC's rp with something different)) He survived. The aged man walks back from the crumbling, hell spawn fortress behind him as all walks of life cheered in victory. The reclamation of Hanseti, albeit special to Aesterwald, was nothing new with the constant blood shed. People always died. But something felt right to the aged man. Once a soldier in his youth and even a 'ramen' chef before then, he knew his time was waning. He was always cheery walking the snow laden roads of Vanderfell, speaking to everyone he passed by. The aged man felt the singed fishing poncho he always wore. A sign from God that although he was not meant for this world forever, he and his people could remain together until they were meet to again in the hereafter. A blessing that his swan song was just and righteous. The Fisher King, Raigeki Kato, boarded his ship. "Fuckah Whalaru." The Easterner says, clenching his barbed harpoon tightly. °ï¦ï°¨¨˜´ˆ`˜¨¨°ï¦ï°¨¨˜´ˆ`˜¨¨°ï¦ï° The Overly Courageous Crew of Whalers and Fishermen °ï¦ï°¨¨˜´ˆ`˜¨¨°ï¦ï°¨¨˜´ˆ`˜¨¨°ï¦ï° https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ddsa5giY7o Red sky at night, sailor’s delight... Red sky in morning, sailor’s warning... I believe with perfect faith that the Creator, Blessed be His Name, is the Creator and Guide of everything that has been created; He alone has made, does make, and will make all things. Heavy rain pelted the fishing trawler relentlessly as the aged man brought quill and ink to the journal. Each commandment was written exactly as what he read off the Book of Horen to his right. His desk slid every so often when the ship dipped downward with the flow of the thrashing waves. I believe with perfect faith that the Creator, Blessed be His Name, has no body, and that He is free from all the properties of matter, and that there can be no comparison to Him whatsoever. Shouts from the crew outside alarmed the old man and he looked up from his workstation. Shouts to the Heavenly Father to give safe voyage to those of his favorite creation. ‘Just one more and I’ll check on them.’ the man thought as he continued writing. I believe with perfect faith that to the Creator, Blessed be His Name, and to Him alone, it is right to pray, and that it is not right to pray to any being besides Him. “Fisher King, it seeks to ruin us!” The door flung open.The sailor was drenched by the rain and breathing heavily. The man wasted no time to depart from his desk. He grabbed ahold of a barbed harpoon by its shaft and looked outside his door. His head continued rising as he witnessed a tentacle stretch high above the ship touching the Heavens before swinging about and whipping at one of the ship’s masts. ¤ -- –Purpose of 'The Crew' The Overly Courageous Crew of Whalers and Fishermen was formed by The Second Fisher King, an aging Easterner. Having discovered the lost story of Father Pietro who was posthumously dubbed First Fisher King by his converts, The Second Fisher King began retelling the story to those he met while fishing. He spoke of a city called 'Piscatoris' that was built upon stilts in the open sea where a group of new True Faith converts were saved from the famine and disease that wreaked havoc on the land. Today, 'The Crew' tries to emulate the values Father Pietro taught the original Piscators. Love and compassion for God's creations. Bravery and hard work to overcome obstacles. And most importantly, strong faith. 'The Crew' is willing to accept apprentices from all classes. Those who lack purpose, are down on their luck and stricken with proverty, or simply love the sea may find what they want in The Overly Courageous Crew of Whalers and Fishermen. 'The Crew' is currently located in Vanderfell and seeking other business opportunities as it grows. ¤ -- –Joining The Crew The Crew is open to anyone regardless of gender or race. Members undergo an initiation process and are referred to as ‘Conversos’. Once they are chosen to undergo the ceremony to become a full fledged member, they are referred to as ‘Piscators’. Piscators are eligible to achieve the ranks of Captain, First Mate, and Second Mate. However you MUST meet the following requirements to be eligible to join. Must be of the True Faith. A ceremony is conducted by an ordained priest and the Fisher King Must be eligible for citizenship in Vanderfell or the County of Ayr. Must have a strong work ethic. Those joining do not need experience in sailing or fishing but must work hard and learn fast. Guild members may do what they wish with their catches - be it sell for profit, feeding one's family, or passing on to another Piscator. To join, speak to the Fisher King or Captain in Vanderfell or send an application to the guild house in Vanderfell. --Application-- Name: Age: Race: Are you of the True Faith or converting?: Any past experience with fishing, whaling, or sailing?: ¤ -- –Ranks of The Crew The Fisher King His Majesty of the Fisher Realm and Converso City of Piscatoris. The guildmaster of the crew. His wisdom and guidance is revered - his knowledge of the sea is used to bring success to the Piscators. The Piscators His Majesty’s Apprentices of the Fisher Realm and Converso City of Piscatoris. Full fledged members who have undergone the oathing ceremony. Eligible for Captain, First Mate, Second Mate, and other designated jobs. The Conversos His Majesty’s New Converts to the True Faith of the Fisher Realm and Converso City of Piscatoris. The initiates, regardless of religious background before joining, start off on equal footing as converts. ¤ -- –Relics of the Fisher Realm The Piscatory Ring - once worn by Father Pietro, The First Fisher King, the Piscatory Ring is of unknown purpose. It is speculated based on the writings of Brother Brundt that Father Pietro was a fisherman by trade either before or during he was ordained as a priest. Today the Piscatory Ring is worn by The Fisher King of the Crew. The Sword of Piscatoris - An old blade that was discovered near the Barony of Blackwood during excavations conducted by the former Waldenian Mage Guild. The blade’s purpose is unknown and despite the expert work put into it, it may just be decorative and not for fighting. The blade is curved similar to that of a scimitar but it is a two-handed blade. A child has mentioned upon its reveal that the blade is similar to the wing of an Alabaster Seabird, much like the ones who make their home in Vanderfell. The Four Scrolls of the Fisher King- Brother Brundt’s writings of the Fisher King were discovered in an abandoned library on the outskirts of Vanderfell. Alongside them the Piscatory Ring was found as well. Their discovery is the basis for the guild’s formation and one of the guild’s main sources of philosophy - second only to the Holy Scrolls. The scrolls have been copied into multiple journals and are sealed in their capsules to prevent further damage. ((To read the Four Scrolls, here is a link: https://www.lordofthecraft.net/topic/119753-four-scrolls-the-fisher-king/ )) "Father Pietro’s story may be over, but I’m sure I’ll be seeing you on board for the sequel."

The Fisher King smiles upon receiving the news. Let the purge of the unholy begin!
