Pigs are truly the worst LoTC farm animal. Cows give leather (important), chickens give feathers (important), sheep give wool (important) but pigs!????? Pigs SUCK!

Happy for the prices being lowered. I might have to try out some camping/adventure RP now.

insurgents can never win b/c the setup around warfare is designed for large pitched battles (warclaims) deciding everything in the conflict. This naturally does not favor insurgents.

wouldn't it be better to mail them in a box or something?

[!] A letter is pinned to the Dúnwen Noticeboard THE FROGS ARE PROTESTING EVERY. SINGLE. NIGHT the frogs have been CROAKING AND CROAKING AND CROAKING AND CROAKING and I cannot get a wink of sleep! They say it is because of "ribbit.... long working hours... ribbit" and "ribbit... unfair strikebreaker tactics... ribbit" and other things. I'm not an expert on this, but it seems we've made the Frog Union mad somehow (maybe it was that strikebreaking of the mines? I don't remember...). REGARDLESS: we must put an END to this protest so our sleep is no longer disrupted! Go forth and make the Shire proud! ~Mimosa Applefoot, Thain of Dúnfarthing ((Event 4 PM EST, tomorrow on the 5th of February, 2/5/2024. Located in Dúnwen, capital of Dúnfarthing, home of the halflings on Braevos))

[!] A propaganda paper is nailed to the Dúnwen Noticeboard WE BEAT THE DRAGONS! T'was a lovely and peaceful day in the shire. We were hosting a marriage between our Honorary Apollo and the Lubba of Lurin when suddenly EVIL attacked! The Demon/Dragon/Bad people things flew down from the skies and BURNED the gazebo where the wedding was being held, sending the guests scrambling into the lake for safety! HOWEVER: We held our own! Once the forces of EVIL landed we reacted swiftly, capturing a mage allied with the evil raiders and flanking the Demon/Dragon/Bad people as they slowly became encased in stone and covered in injuries! Soon we had DESTROYED the Demon/Dragon/Bad people and successfully DEFENDED the shire! The Shire of Dúnwen and other peoples of the east cannot be so easily harassed when united! Praise Lord Knox, Long Live the Shire, and Long may the Newlyweds prosper! -Mimosa Applefoot, Thain of Dúnwen, land of the halflings.

You can have multiple characters if you want to play something other than a darkspawn to engage in slice of life RP or whatever.

Being outed darkspawn isn’t the same as getting force-PKed since you still have lairs to live in and all of your dark magic powers for CRP (some of which are quite strong) as well as CRP default to use it with to boot.

Darkspawn testing makes perfect RP sense. Cities that want to secure themselves fron darkspawn related conflict would just deny entry to sketchy characters entirely without it. Either way you’re not getting in. This is more of a problem with gatehouses and guard RP than anything else.

"T'is beh ah vereh cool documen'" says Mimosa Applefoot after attending the Concord meeting.

[!] A personal missive is sent out “Here in Dúnfarthing we SUPPORT the Paladins as fellow FREEDOM lovers! The tyrannical states of Hyspia and Haense oppose the Paladins because they have no FREEDOM to vote and no FREEDOM of religion! They cannot comprehend that those who worship different from them may still lend aid in the fight against EVIL darkspawn! Only FREE nations can truly deal with the threats of evil, for those who oppose freedom are evil themselves! -Mimosa Applefoot, Thain of Dúnfarthing”

OOC: Hello there! This is an event designed to simulate a single day of halfling life as best as possible. Everybody starts at the beginning of the hour, having just woken up. Their characters then go about their day as they would IRP, eventually falling back to sleep at the end of the hour, which ends the event. Working, eating, talking, and other things your character typically does in a day can and should be roleplayed. There will be a single roleplay prompt happening during the hour to promote interaction, but attending it isn’t mandatory. Feel free to do as you wish. The intention isn’t to attract a large quantity of halflings into one location at a time, but rather to create as much immersion as possible. SoL Event Checklist (Optional): -Wake up ( ) -Eat something ( ) -Do some task ( ) -Interact with someone ( ) -Eat another thing ( ) -Go to sleep ( ) RP: [!] A note is pinned to the Dúnwen noticeboard ~A Peregrin by the Peregrin burrow~ Dear Peregrins, Since our two families have been growing so much lately, we ought to celebrate by holding a small party! I will be cooking up a mighty fine feast in my burrow, and I hope the Peregrins can contribute something as well! -Mimosa Applefoot Thain of Dúnwen. ((5 PM EST, Tomorrow on Monday the 22nd of January, 1/22/2024, located within Dúnwen, capital of Dúnfarthing, just down the road from the Birch_Forest warp))
