[!] A proper depiction of the protest enacted across the lands of arcas in the name of Christ Punchsteel THE WORLD STOOD IN SILENCE TODAY AS HUNDREDS RALLIED ACROSS CITIES AND BORDERS, OCCUPYING GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS AND PRIVATE SPACES IN PROTEST OF THE RENAMING OF CHRIST PUNCHSTEEL, FAMED PUGILIST WHO INVENTED THE DWARVES. THE PEACEFUL PROTESTORS SPREAD FROM THE STREETS OF HELENA TO THE KINGDOM OF HAENSE, REMOVING THEIR ARMOR AND DONNING FINE LEATHER ROBES TO PLEDGE SUPPORT FOR KING SIGISMUND TWO’S RALLY AGAINST THE IMPERIAL HOUSE OF LORDS FOR THEIR COMPLICITY IN THE IMPRISONMENT OF PUNCHSTEEL. THE KING PROCLAIMED THE HOUSE OF LORDS “Seditious Dogs” WHO WORKED AGAINST HIS DIVINE RIGHT TO RULE. PUNCHSTEEL WOULD ONLY AGREE IF HE WAS HERE. THE CROWD MET THE GUARDS WITH A LOUD SILENCE, THINKING ONLY OF CHRIST’S PEACE. LEAGUE UPON LEAGUE DID THE MEN STRIDE, CLAD IN THE ARMOR OF THEIR NATIONS. IT SEEMS THAT LIKE A GREAT SWARM OF CUTTLEFISH OR OTHER SUCH SCHOOLED WHITEFISH COULD ONLY LEARN FROM A GREAT MASS THAT ONLY SEEMED TO GROW WITH TIME, CITIZENS OF THE WORLD UNITING IN STERN PROTEST AND JOINING THE SWARM IN THE GREATEST RALLY OF MASS POLITICAL ACTION SINCE THE ADELBURG COUP. WILL THERE EVER BE PEACE ON THE STREETS OF ARCAS? THE ANSWER REMAINS WITH CHRIST. PETITION UNFORCE PK ON CHRIST PUNCHSTEEL SIGN BELOW!

The Shattered Union of 1773 The 8th of the Snow Maiden marks a day in which Vira’ker secedes the contract they had in place with the Trade State of Sutica. If any discussion wishes to be held between the council of Sutica and the Cabinet of Vira’ker, you may contact the people of vira’ker and we may organize a date but we see no benefit in strengthening a military that defends a man known as, ’Corwin.’ He had made treacherous acts on the Holy Orenian Empire and we do not support those actions. If said man were to turn himself in or step down from his position then we may discuss another possibility of working with the Trade state of Sutica. We do not condone villainous and treacherous actions. As acted out by the High Prince, he wishes to give people a second chance who are willing to change. Unfortunately Corwin has insulted the people of Oren and he will pay for accosting the people of Oren. Signed, The High Prince of Vira’ker Johnathus Ruk I

The Union of Arms =_______________________________= -Vira and Sutican delegates, chiefly the High Prince and Trade King, officiate the union, 1772.- =_______________________________= This treaty, written to officiate the union of the Seaguard of Vira’ker and the Sutican Watch, lays out the terms and intentions of this pact. Written below are the terms: In terms of defensive cooperation and peacekeeping operations in the South, the Sutican Cerulean Watch will be considered part of the Seaguard, operating under the name of the ‘Cerulean Brigade’ along with the Vira'ker based ‘Navy Brigade’. The Cerulean Brigade will operate under the direction of its current captain, Mika Goldhand. He will report to the Commander of the Seaguard, but may petition the Trade King if any matters - not deemed in Sutica’s interest - arise. The Cerulean Brigade must train in unison with the Navy Brigade, and vice-versa. Such should increase the skill and discipline of all, bring traffic to both cities and allow for fraternisation of the troops. As part of the Seaguard, the Cerulean Brigade is obliged to attend the Seaguard Summit, held regularly to brief the troops on the matters of the Seaguard. Similar to the High Prince, the Trade King is cordially invited to attend every one, in order to raise any concerns over the Seaguard’s administration. In the event of the death of the Commander, the High Prince will meet privately with the Trade King to nominate successors. The Trade King will advise on the choice. The Commander then appoints all subordinate roles. The Cerulean Watch and the guard of Vira'ker reserve the sole right of law enforcement in their respective territories under the terms of their respective codes of law, though any combat reinforcements invoked by either side will defer to the Seaguard command. The Cerulean Brigade shall not partake in offensive maneuvers in violation of policies of Sutican neutrality as disclosed within the Supreme Writ of Sutican Governance. These terms of union are written with the intent of beneficial co-operation between Sutica and Vira’ker. Gone are the days of military irrelevancy and martial incompetency. As one, the people of Sutica and Vira’ker will train, drill and build themselves into one united military powerhouse, rivalling any enemy force upon Arcas and securing the peaceful existences of the two nations involved. The greatest defense is a strong offense, and the unified Seaguard of Vira’ker and Sutica will certainly have both. Signatories: His Royal Majesty, the High Prince of Vira’ker, Johnathus I Ruk Ser Keaton II Errmark, Commander of the Seaguard His Royal Majesty, the Trade King of Sutica, Corwin von Alstreim His Excellency, Minister of Peace, Mika Goldhand-Uialben

Settlement PRO MC Name: KingJohnFleeper Settlement Name: King John’s Rock Proposed Settlement Locations (Highlight 3 on the map): Settlement Lore (could include previous roleplay posts showing involvement with the community) (1000 words minimum): Ruswick military structure War with oren A poem about Ruswick A play written about the bandit kingdom of ruswick The Religion of King John Nottinghams religious attacks on canonism The Exile Of Nottingham Nottingham news network Nottinghams Ordinance Southron Lore Nottingham Triumphant Alliance with Ghanyah Settlement Government Structure Explanation: King John’s Rock follows a theocratic government where King John, supreme deity of Nottinghamshire is recognized as the supreme ruling authority bestowing his divine governance down to his Council of Nemok, or prophets on earth who direct the day to day lives of their people. This council is usually composed of 5 individuals from various backgrounds. These individuals have no specific requirements such as nobility. Instead, all that matters however is their sole devotion to the teachings of King John. Settlement Builds and Infrastructure (photos required): How does this settlement offer a unique niche not already found in an existing polity on the server? Rather than the old Monarchy of Ruswick, King John’s Rock is a theocratic state following the tenants and will of King John Himself. It offers a place for things such as cults, banditry, thieves and a place to house the so called scum of the earth. It was nice and worked fine last time. We had a lot of roleplay backing us. We helped haense in a warclaim and had the difference making rally of 30. It closed the gap and made the defense defend better. It offers a new religion for people to worship, and a new culture. How does your settlement tie to the greater lore and narrative set by the community on LotC?: It gives the current state of the server an antagonist. The difference between us having a settlement and not is that we actually have roleplay consequence such as losing our charter and forcing us to think our actions out strategically Have you ever run a settlement on LoTC before and what experience do you have with leadership within roleplay communities among the current groups of players? Yes. I lead the previous Ruswick and it was fun. It came with a lot of OOC but it also came with things that made the server enjoyable for my community and I am grateful for that. Are you aware that the nomenclature of your settlement and structure of its government must be initially appropriate to your size and status? (I.e a 1 tier settlement can not be a kingdom or principality - Rome was not built in a day!) Yes Do you understand the metrics for maintaining activity and the grounds for settlement removal, along with the standing polity cap? Yes

The fetus of a baby ireheart would chuckle. . .

Can’t even build your own tents or get your own colors.
