Why do I feel that so much of the stuff I've established as cannon for the Mur over the last few weeks had been ripped off in the space of a few hours and that basically the Kami are a silver bullet solution to having not chosen specific for the Paric nation justified 'becuz dey iz note Parik'.

Skadii-an Murfolk
The Murfolk are a mammalian species of bipeds hailing from the verdant archipelago nation of Skadia in the Southern Oceans beneath the main continental drift. The resemble human's for the most part however make several notable deviations in basic physiology.
The typical Mur usually stands taller than a man at six feet in height and possesses a unique body shape that accommodates an developed respiratory system contained within a barrelled chest. This cavity is primarily filled with overly developed lungs and is protected by a thickened rib cage. This developed bodily system complimented by heavily oxygenated blood allows them to remain submerged for extended periods, some Mur claim to be able to hold their breath for upwards of forty minutes though in combat situations their exertions limit this time drastically.
Their skin can present itself in various shades of blue and green, depending on locality and hormonal balances, and secretes a thin layer of natural oils that is permeable to water allowing the Mur to keep their skin moist. Additionally worthy of note are the naturally occurring fin-like appendages that form on the Mur, mainly manifesting on the forearms legs, and head, which are used alongside their flat hands and feet to stabilise and propel themselves through the water ways of the Isles at high speeds allowing them a greater control of their bodies while completely immersed. Similar such fins, stands, etc also suffice for hair amongst their kind. All Mur also possess a second layer of transparent black eyelids which remain closed while the allowing them to swim rapidly through salt water as well as preventing becoming sun blinded when they surface after prolonged submersion.
Muscle forms in sheathes upon their bodies and densely so due to their conditioning under water which make Mur decidedly stronger than the average human male and better suited for labouring work. It is for this reason that Mur tend to use heavier weapons and nature chitin plate armours.
It is also worth noting that the gender of a Mur is not always immediately obvious despite their lack of clothing because their sex organs are not always external to the body and manifest during breeding seasons and times of arousal. Mur can typically be described as passionate, dutiful, and straightforward. This however leaves other races to misinterpret them as crude and servile.
Culture
The Mur form communes centred around areas of natural abundance usually inland where waterways are present or along the coasts where a myriad wealth of flora and fauna can be found. Such communes are semi-autonomous settlements collectively ministered to by River/Lake/Harbour Masters whose function is to ensure the safety of the general populous, productivity of industry, as well as the free flow of trade to various other settlements. This title tends to hereditary and is typically passed on the worthy clerk or dock hand whose efforts are considered laudable.
The Mur eschew most forms of combative actions within their own society preferring to settle matter of inter-settlement conflict through non-combative means either by settling debts or hosting KoGÇÖtoltch ceremonies where valuable goods are sacrificed to the Gods before their rivals. However in instances where conflicts do break out between the Mur they are internecine and bitter with both settlements depopulated and destroyed in the process. Currently the only active blood feud recognised within the Isles is between the islands of Skurd and Rhistvalla, both Isles somehow flourishing due to the seasonal conflicts, whose people tend to supply the greatest levies of marines to the SyGÇÖThal Navies.
The general underlying concepts of Mur culture centre on prosperity and unity and as such the Mur see works that benefit the people as a whole to be worth pursuing with the fullest of their efforts. As a maritime and agricultural society the position of labourer, farmer, and gamesman are treated with due respect for the craft of cultivating/raising/hunting of natural aspects of the world.
Given their natural inclination for the oceans and waterways as well as the powerful cultural ideals surrounding unity it is no wonder that a very specific aesthetic manifests itself in their art and literature. This aesthetic being the GÇÿwhorlGÇÖ while manifests primarily in their high developed and intricate textiles and fabrics, such as the Maera and Aklae these being the only forms of clothing the Skadii ever wear. This also extends into literature and poetry where sentences and phrases tend to take on a cyclic nature flowing into one another.
Within Mur society neither gender has specifically designated roles though it is usually observed that the female of the species has become established in the upper echelons of the social structure, perhaps due to their matriarchal pantheon.

Religion
The systematic beliefs of the Skadii-an Mur are perhaps the least understood part of their culture though perhaps make up the most fundamental part of their lives. The Mur subscribe to a vast, matriarchal pantheon of various deific figures which they both do and do not believe exist. These GÇÿdeitiesGÇÖ are commonly used to personify important cultural ideals or perhaps explain or express concerns of a lack of knowledge on a subject.
That being said they pay homage to the deities of their ancestral homeland of Shalvys from which the pantheon originally hails as if they were forms of GÇÿgrand spiritsGÇÖ while lesser spirits and manifestations of their deities exist in the natural world. Gods are attributed various aspects and facets each with differing meanings and interpretations, as well as a domain over which they rule, allowing them to exist in various different senses and to convey a wide variety of meanings. Shrines and Temples are maintained by the various adepts, and High Priestesses, receiving varied levels of care dependant on their position within the Covenant, who both accept and determine the worth of the gifts presented.
Such beliefs are also used in a practical sense with the Mur having incorporated the offering of specific tributes to gods on various occasions to represent the bounty of their people, as well as to pray/ensure fair weather, or cement their own position within society in relation to their Calling or to the Passions.
The primary Gods as they are worshipped areGǪ
Goddess Kalya, She of the Oceans who is the Whorl, and Goddess of Prosperity, Creativity, Fertility, and Love. Goddess MGÇÖkke, She of the Winds, Goddess of Inspiration, and Authority, Strategy, and Victory Goddess Rohe, She of the Stars, Goddess of Light and Navigation. Goddess Hina, She of the Healthy Birthing, Weaving, Shells, and Glyphs. God Vinneter, He of the Storm, God of Wrath, Warriors, Sexuality, and Textile Crafts God Laho Laonua, He of the Depths, God of Passing, Trade, Secrets, and Stories [Rohe and Hina are often portrayed as the same Goddess]
There is a creationist mythos however it is not often spoken of, and only at Festivals where particularly talented Singers, Musicians, or Story Tellers are called to present it.
The Passions
The Passions are they are called by the Mur are a pairing of one male and one female deity used to signify the differences between the male and female aspects of desire. As previously mentioned this is not only a physical sense of desire but also the metaphysical aspirations of the Mur people. The most commonly referred to Passion is that in the Male sense which represents not only the lust a male might instinctively be possessed of but also the commonly accepted and attributed desires of the male of the species. This Passion is most often referred to when speaking of martial achievements, development of a craft, labouring, etc.
The least discusses facet of Mur spiritualism is that of the Female Passions, while also referring to the sexual drives of a female it refers more to less tangible concepts that seek to change things within Mur culture. It is perhaps because if this that the Female Passion has very few devotees and is regarded with both admiration, reverence, and trepidation as its follower seek to fundamentally alter the established culture of the Mur by reshaping the underlying aesthetic of the GÇ£whorlGÇÖ.
Devotees of a specific passion also need not be of the corresponding gender simply represent those aspects of their chosen Passion. Choosing to take on a Passion in Mur culture is a gravely serious matter and devotees do not stand to be mocked for any reason. It must be noted that the common usage of the term Passion is not only to refer to lust in a common manner of speech but also to denote a specific achievement or goal being reached or set and does not infer or suggest that a Mur might have accepted that Passion.
These deities are MGÇÖkke, Goddess of Winds, Inspiration, and Authority, Strategy, and Victory, who represents the lesser spoken of Female Desires, and the disgraced and cast down Male deity Vinnetir, Lord of Storms, Wrath, Sexuality, and Textile Crafts.
Governance
The prevailing system of governance within the SyGÇÖThal Isles can best be described as a GÇ£centralised autocratic minocracy punctuated by smaller more regional meritocratic minocraciesGÇ¥ despite primarily identifying as a Principality. Harbour Masters serve as local governors serving as a focal point for the concerns of the citizenry and ensuring trade and the daily ministrations of the citizenry are seen. Central to this structure is the governing Mur who is bestowed the suffix-name of GÇÿShalvysGÇÖ, meaning literally GÇÿof Shalvys-That-WasGÇÖ denoting their direct lineage to the ancient city state of the Mur, who functions similarly as a focal point. It is also notable that Mur do not treat this figure as a ruler so much as they treat them with great reverence as an advisor.
The Covenant refers to the monastic grouping of the various spiritualist school who also serve to unite the Mur through their shared sense of spiritualism usually dictating the social protocols alongside the Harbour Masters and easing the minds of the citizenry.

Marriage, Mating, and Sexuality
The Mur are more or less possessed of a straight forward and unashamed approach to sexuality and love being a particularly unguarded in their expression of emotions. This is most commonly represented in their acceptance of the Passions, deities who represent the male and female desires both literally and metaphorically. The attributes manifest in the adepts of the various deities, particularly in the Daughters of Venetir, whose memberships regularly imbibe an aphrodisiac mixture that keeps their sex organs visible and them in a constant state of arousal as an embodiment of the Male Desire their god embodies.
Mur typically form mated pairs however these are not strict groupings, nor are they for life. Mur are encouraged to select mates of the opposite gender with which to breed by are not forbidden or discouraged from taking partners of the same sex. The only ritualised form of union is performed via the completion of a Bonding Ceremony which is ministered by an Adept of Kalya and affirmed by the linking of ones fins by a single band and signifies that the Mur has found an eternal partner whom they would chose to spend the Long Night with till Sea swallows all.
Not much is known about how Mur give birth only that they refer to the process as GÇÿspawningGÇÖ.
Military
The military forces of the SyGÇÖThal Isles have not every seen a modern conflicts and have not truly faced the threat of war in over two hundred years
For the most part the main bulk of the Skadii military was unused to conventional warfare and possessed little in the way of formal military training. Moreover their armaments were at the time considered dated with the Skadii being unwilling and unable to produce and secure enough conventional muzzle loading rifles to arm a united force.
Crossbows prove to be the mainstay of the Skadii arsenal with the heavy bolts still being able to pierce thick armour plating and being easier to produce, maintain, and waterproof than rifles. While the bolts had lesser range and destructive power than their black powder counter parts they allowed Skadii forces to fire much faster and in silence which suit their roles as saboteurs and irregulars.
Commonplace tactics feature the use of saboteurs and tactics designed to draw off sections of larger formations into favourable battles.
That being said the SyGÇÖThal Navies are a completely different armed force altogether and subscribe to a particular form of combat until now not seen. Rather than engage larger vessels in Lines of Battle the Mur instead engage of angles leveraging their speed, manoeuvrability, and massed fire from the large bore cannon purchased from the Tal-Man to best advantage. Once enemy forces are in disarray the Mur independently and rather savagely, for such a reserved people, set upon individual foes crippling their vessels using mounted ballistae in decisive strokes.

No worries Raven. I've fleshed out my culture, etc in such a way as I don't feel outed. I'm more or less convinced the Mur will be a competitive racial group, with a much more developed plot now.
Also whats the status on those undead thingies. Will they merit discussion at the summit?

Quickly how do we want to develop this summit?
No one is currently at war, barring the Tal-Man and Blooders who have no representation, beyond that trade agreements are in place. If no one has anything to say beyond that I'll speed through it with political jargon and push into the main festival so we can all progress.

I'll be going into the ships in more detail, but if we're talking frigate then that's the fastest Osmar ship. Too small for the line of battle and their guns are generally on a single deck and certainly no more than two. About thirty to fourty cannons per ship and relatively large square sails. If you scaled the ship of the line down to size, the frigate would be longer and narrow than it. Scouting, raiding, trade disruption and protection are what they're best for. Most manoeuvrable ship in the Osmar navy, though likely not as manoeuvrable as Mur ships. Crew would be reasonably skilled swordsmen as is necessary if boarding or being boarded. Anything I missed? Also while I'm here I'll mention one of my earllier posts is updated with the army.And finally: Nothing comes to mind to be brought up at the summit, as far as I'm concerned carry on as you wish.
No merely curious.

I was thinking of the Tal-Man but I haven't yet devised a strategy for attacking their larger vessels.
Besides that the only people I know about are the Paric, Osmarii, and Tal-Man.
I would hunt Blooders but I don't know anything about them. Now that Spade as done a break down of his military he now has me wondering how the Mur would fight on the land.

I think pressurised water cannon are the least mind bending thing in the game. While I do not have any quarrels with it, I do want to remind you that Ark has recently gone silent. (Due to his temporary departure.) Yeah I know I'm trying to shape the "Square" into something more appropriate. Found out that the Squad was a very old formation (not to be mistaken for the Tetsudo "Turtle" Formation) used during the Han Dynasty) that being said I'd take suggestions since I'd prefer to come up with something a bit more logical.

I am imaging it will take awhile to sail back to the main land, unless you have an extremely fast ship to catch up with the lead the Tal-Man vessels have I will see you on the battlefeild.
Looking into it slavery was much more a of a burden than a benfit to the owners, I got to look up the most effective way to break slaves...
It's culturally.
By the way the festival technically is over. With the exception of Vash and likely Animaya whom I am forcing to have sketches drawn of their people. I consider it reasonably likely the the Mur is Osmarium have already made sketches of humans and Paric sailors on the docks.

I can't speak for Kador's ancestors. His people were the first slaves, the first people to resist and be conquered by the Amarr, and no many millennia later is a staunch supporter of what is right.
He considers himself a Liberal Pragmatist, stating that liberalism is a wonderful concept when it works. When it fails however all it does is shatter a people and give them the impression that acts of self service are acceptable.
People have to be unified. Democratic process cannot and will not do that. Nor will factionalism between Houses, tribes, or ideologies. One God, One People, One Universe, with One Purpose.

Well if war breaks out I have properly finalised the battle tactics of the Mur it can be surmised by the following quotes.....
"Be like the sea: flow around that which is unmovable; for everything else, crashing into it unrelentingly."
"Let the Land dwellers know the coast is no longer the border between our two realms. Your rivers, your lakes, your water ways whatever shape they might take belong to us as well."

@ Raven - War is patience. It's half the battle. Manoeuvring your enemies and picking the correct moment to stand for what you believe in. The Spears of Mur will shape the fate of Land-walker wars and more than once.
"[ I shall] let the Land dwellers know the coast is no longer the border between our two realms. Their rivers, their lakes, their water ways whatever shape they might take belong to us as well."
Regardless the Mur shall continue trading with their two largest partners.
On a side note the more I develop these guys the more possibilities I see for them in future.

Of course I do.
I've also been looking to properly perfect the Mur fighting style so it is not too reliant on a relatively modernised tactic and I eventually settled primarily on Long Spear and Roundshield fighting like the Celts employed against their enemies.
Lines remain flexible but disciplined as the Mur fluidly look for sections of enemy lines to exploit. Still heavy use of Irregular formations, Skirmishers, and Sabotage but no real lined formations. The redeeming feature of this is that each Mur has a lot of mass behind him or her so given enough mommentum they could plough through a shield wall (though not one of the races like the Tal-Man and Cathay Raht or Mur who have established super human physiques) and I leave out Artugians because they don't seem......'ready' for the shield wall.

Artugians mock the need for shields instead relying on agility and cunning to avoid being hit... Though in hindsight shields would of been really f*cking useful when the Tal-Man invaded :/
Shield and Spear Doctrine is glorious! Artugians will see if they ever do sparring type things.

What I am saying is a can almost quote the sex scenes from 50 Shades of Grey. And I certainly did not commit them to memory so I could occasionally whisper them to a close friend of mine to really weird them out. She absolutely hates it.
There is some good backstory to that little chronicle..... very funny stuff.

What is the general philosophy the magic operates under in this world?
Magic is common place? Systematised Magic? Lost Magic? Wild Magic? Magic is a very specific gift? Magic can be given to others? Magic can be inherited? Magic fading from the world? Can magic form something from nothing? Is magic all powerful? Is magic something that can only make small changes? Does magic take the requisite energy from the body to achieve a change? Can magic kill it's wielder? Is spirit summoning a thing?
Depending on the answers it will determine if I can bring back the concept I chose not to use and would explain how the Mur are able to shape stone so easily.
I left my personal favourite off that list since I don't want it copied.

Just asking. If magic is to be a thing it need specific unchangeable rules that define what it is and how it can be used.
E.G- Could a single magician conjure a storm that would affect an entire town, region, continent on their own?
Are common magicians incredibly weak and barely able to lift rocks?
Do they require incantations, spells, materials?
Where does this magical energy come from? Is it based on the stamina of the magician who casts the spell, some outside force? Etc.
Personally I'm not normally a fan of games being ultra powerful since they tend to quickly unbalance and skew how things work in an otherwise clear instance. That being said having them incredibly weak really devalues magic as a whole. So does any form of magic where literally anything is possible......

Well......technically speaking Necromancy isn't really the manipulation of the dead so much as it is a form of spirit manipulation.
I suppose your Artugians could appeal to their ancestors but whether you want the effects of the haka to be something spirtual or something more practical is up to you.

I've been considering which kinds of magic would be best suited for the Mur and eventually settled on the concept that they shall not be able to use elemental forms of magic...... being in my mind potentially the least useful form of the stuff since it's such a limiting school of magic (At least in most forms fantasy I've read).
Instead I think I am going to work with fundamental forces. Repulsion, Attraction, Abrasion, Tension. Four schools with individual characteristics using various forces as primary energies. Simple, measurable, and practical magic. I'm also thinking one about sound could be interesting.
Tension - Manipulation of the tension of specific objects allowing Shapers to adjust the rigidity of things including at some extent how brittle things can become.
Abrasion - Manipulation of abrasive forces that are used to shape not just physical objects such as stone work but also eventually wear away objects entirely including other magical forces
Attraction - Manipulation of forces in much the same way as magnetism drawing objects towards the source of the magic itself.
Repulsion - Manipulation of forces that repulse things pushing them away from the source of the magic.
Will need to think about this but magic has really give me a way to get around siege work.

How do you embolden will?
By the way I've settled on my particular super natural powers and their abilities. Shapers use various forces rather than be limited to the element of their schooling.
Attraction, Pull, or Draw - The ability to manipulate the forces of attraction in a manner similar to magnetism drawing objects towards the source of their magic.
Repulsion, Push, or Deny -The ability to manipulate the forces of repulsion allowing shapers to to push objects away from the source of their magic.
Abrasion, Rub, Wearing - The ability to wear down substances via the use of abrasive forces. This also includes non-physical things such as spell constructions.
Tension, Rigid, Stress - The ability to manipulate the density and rigidity of objects. This only affects physical constructs however basically allows a shaper to determine how hard, soft, or brittle something is.
I have others too.
That being said none are particularly useful large scale battle magics so you won't see plumes of fire shooting from the hands of fish-men however you will see swords and shield shattering, arrows deflecting, castle walls crumbling.
Also worth noting is that more oft than not Mur have particular pairings of the attunements the most desirable of which is Attraction and Repulsion allowing them to function as Tide Shapers.

Also I'd feel guilting knocking off the Nilfgaardian moniker of "black ones". Wedged between the Skadi-an Mur synopsis and scene I was unable to post due to issues with censorship I have the Kysmal.
Kysmal are a biped race of humanoids originating from the continental drift in the Great Central Oceans of the world. Possessed of an incredibly hard skin that resembles granite the Kysmal are a rugged and tough people whose very lives are defined by their fascination with the earth.
They are an astringent people in all respects. Their culture is a rigid hierarchy and leveraged its peoples into a militaristic nation complete the raw materials and discipline to back it up. Kysmal practice the most mundane of the shaping magic eschewing many of the more subtle arts and producing some of the most capable Abrasion and Tension Shapers known far and wide.
The Kysmal are a highly industrious people and serve to develop their primary crafts of masonry, metal work, and crystal work to levels to higher and higher levels. They care little for the land around them quite willing to devastate entire sections of natural resources if it advances their interests.
The Kysmal do not believe in Gods, they only believe in what they can see and touch choosing instead to venerate a whomsoever presents themselves as the most powerful and capable leader of their people.

Every magic should have it's own downside.
If you are planning on using a magic, post it here along with a proposed downside if you have one. Alright. Taking the previously mentioned one, Effect: Reinforces willpower, encourages a soldier to fight on despite hardships. Someone affected by this spell will not flee from combat and will take more injuries and attack with greater ferocity.. As it is essentially a trick of the mind, it confers no physical improvements. This means that it in no way affects how much blows a soldier can take, but rather how much they are willing to take. It must be actively and continuously held by the caster and if ended abruptly can leave a man momentarily confused and dazed. So, that's one that'd likely show up once magic is revealed more in Osmar territory. (If approved of course)
It's kind of like what Galbatorix does to his soldier in Brisingr and the final book. He basically has them swear their allegiance to him in the Ancient Language so they cannot betray him, forces their True Names out of them, and casts spells on them that remove their ability to feel pain and fear.
As such he can send 100 Soldiers again 300 and when the victors think themselves victorious they bastards are still on the ground armless, legs less, and swinging their swords.
The downside to that was that they were overconfident as hell and never relied on tactics overcommitting their forces and being annihilated in greater numbers than normal. However arrows do nothing against them, spears do little, only decapitation and loss of limbs stopped them.
Perhaps the weakness of the magic is feed back to either the caster or the soldiers. Termination of the magic befuddles the mind and consequently confers terror as soldier realise how wounded they are, or perhaps on the caster who is then subject to the powers of his magic and is practically flayed alive or exposed to the terror of his soldiers and ends up deranged.
Manipulation of the mind is a serious taboo.

Kysmal: A Passing Glance
Kysmal People
For all intents and purposes one could be forgiven for mistaking one of the 'Red Ones' as a mere mutation of the human species however upon closer inspection of the Kysmal one will find as many divergences as similarities. The Kysmal are most notable for their tough red skin which comes in varying shades from a ruddy brown to a radiant crimson and are covered in inherited patterns of lighter and darker skin as a result of hormone balanced. This skin not only provides a means of indicating social rank within the Kysmal society but also provides a means of protection as the skin it tough like dried leather. The Kysmal are also traditionally known of their unique iris shading with the only observed colouring being violet, gold/yellow, red, and black.
Kysmal Lands
The Lands on the Isle of Kysma are mainly comprised of windswept steppes and barren plateaus with the Kysmal inhabiting sheltered sections of the landscape where crops can be grown and buildings kept out of veiw of the harsh winds and frequent storms. Unlike the other lands Kysma and its flora and fauna are well suited to this kind of life style allowing the Kysmal to subside and thrive.
Kysmal Culture
The Kysmal unlike the other races relish conflict. It has long been a part of their culture that if not united under their king the Kysmal spend almost all of their time warring amongst themselves in territorial disputes at the behest of local warlords. This leads the Kysmal to be particularly prickly and reserved in their dealings with the other races and very slight provocations can be met with the challenge of combat.
Kysmal also have a great loves of song, sport, and food. Despite being a warlike people their culture is well developed and rather complex.
To be a worthy soldier is the highest calling a commoner could hope to achieve in life.
Kysmal Religious
The Kysmal have various forms of religion that is more or less metaphorical for how a person should live with the gods acting as the players in parables that attributed to behavioural tenets. That being said the Gods are worshipped through introspective mediatation and personal soul searching. It is considered that to offer ones heartfelt self realisations of persona; achievement or failure with the Gods is the greatest offering one can make.
Kysmal Relationships and Marriage
The Kysmal are incredibly sensitive about relationships and have systematised courting rituals that lovers must follow. Social caste, political stances, and personal merits are all considered when taking into account relationship in Ksyma. It is a highly regulated system amongst the nobility but less so amongst commoners. Simple acts like how one approaches dealings with another or holds hands can be serious breaches of etiquette with rumours spreading quickly.
Kysmal Warfare
The traditional mode of Kysmal warfare is ran upon rank of spearmean alternating between longspears [two handed spears] and shortspears with shields. Archers are heavily employed as well though cavalry is not well used as they are too rare and valuable to be thrown away in war.
Kysmal Magic
Kysmal Magic is fundamentally the same as the Mur with both commanding Authorities over forces though while the Mur have perfected the subtleties of various Authorities such as Resonation, Attraction, and Repulsion the Kysmal have arguably perfected the art forms of Tension and Abrasion Authorities and wield them freely.
More often than not enemy soldiers will find themselves without the support of their magicians the spell casters being reduced to dust before their very eyes or will find the ground or walls shatter beneath the touch of their Shapers.
Kysma craftsmen are also particularly proud of their advancements in magitechnology and the production of machines that channel the Authorities.

Johnny which would be most effective on the way the Slaves. Do they care that others suffer or are they more selfish, Just point to which would be the best system for the use on the Ants. Well Artugians don't work for themselves. So they arnt naturally selfish. However they do not tend to cry over the suffering of their loves one nor their death. However they will protect themselves if need be and can hold a grudge for generations (working on a few things that will happen between tribal descendants). The best way to force them into line would be to break their claws publicly. Breaking their claws is humiliating and they do it only in wedding ceremonies as a way to show their spouse (or spouses) that they are willing to suffer the humiliation of broken claws. Its humiliating as they cannot enter Marthal without using their claws to climb the trees.
That being said this is not knowledge any of your characters know Vash nor is it knowledge the Artugans would ever give up willingly.

The assisting Mur are rewarded handsomely, some even becoming high class Angelis citizens.
Woo. Okay, so rolls will now be done here from now on. Oh this means the potential of war if the Angelis do not give up those potential Shalvyian Relics. The relics would be rather lackluster to the Mur, as they are from the old world civilizations. (Before the reset.) The Paric - Relic Osmar - Relic Talman Vagabonds - Relic Bloods The above were the races that are from the old world. The Vagabonds fell and are now the Dals. The Talman are the results of an empire falling after colonization of the world. Bloods still exist The Paric are the unknown remainder of the Parabunny Nation The Osmar... were the Osmar. Anyhow, you may still attempt to create war, but the Angelis are a rather weak nation, military wise.
All the Mur know is that you found relics on the sea floor. If you don't give them up for inspection the Fleets will force a viewing.
Any clue to the location of Shalvys is worth fighting for.

Also they will send an Ancestor of Wisdom as a gift to the Mur if they teach them to build ships.
We'll teach you rudimentary designs for ships but we'll never teach Landborn how to make ships the Mur way. That being said I am conflicted. We are friends of the Artugians but also trade partners of the the Tal-Man and we take our agreements very seriously.
I think the only compromise that we can come to on this is teaching the free Artugians how to construct basic seafaring vessels and the fundamentals of navigation, we shall remain neutral in the war but continue to openly trade with the Tal-Man sending merchant ships under armed guard offering a stern warning that any who dare to deny the Mur passage on their oceans or undertake aggressive actions against be fully subject to the combined might of the Fleets until concessions are made to preserve relations.
In an official series of announcements the Mur will address the world before it sinks into chaos.

How the hell am I supposed to attack the people who sell me modern weapons for my ships?
No thanks. I'll retain my neutrality for now and amass wealth in the long run.
Food to the Tal-Man, Textiles to the Osmar, Knowledge with the Angellis, not sure what I get out of Pataris....... perhaps why I've not invested in it, and Land from the Artugians whom I will exploit in a Treaty Settlment then spend the next 100 years watching them make outrageous claims against.

Beyond competing with Spade's Osmar Navy and exports I really also can't think of anything the Mur want.
But if I had to think about it they would buy things they could not find in their own lands. Specifically precious minerals, spices, herbs [mainly the medicinal derivatives of them].
Gemstones that are blue or green are incredibly prized amongst the Mur especially those that are uncut and they would pay through the nose to get at them. Property in foreign lands is a plus.
The only thing the Mur really need to take by force are the bowspirits of vessels, and I will be writing a new raid with the Maelstrom raiding merchantmur ships. As war starts up the Mur will be getting decidedly more daring in their dealings with the Landborn nations.

I have no beef. Just let me finish up the scene with Vash and I can set the Mur to Auto pilot.
Worth noting if the Artugians ask why the Mur are teaching the to build ships that do not look like the Thalassae is it because they are incredibly difficult to replicate outside of the Isles and partially because the designs themselves are the key to Mur power at sea.....besides of course the whole swimming/breath holding.

I'm not actually against anthropomorphism in creatures especially when used to create interesting fantasy races. I just think that particular image of a Cathay Raht was a bit thin....or too humanoid.
Y'know more muscle mass, longer arms, less human proportions.
Though to be fair I've not had dealing with the Cathay Raht yet so I was under the impression they were all Ajani Goldmanes.
EDIT: Also just noticed that that particular image has a Massai feel to me. If Assegai was anything to draw opinions/notions of an entire culture off of then it's very interesting because in that book Massai did the 'Lion Dance' and often associate themselves with Leonin figures.

Hmmmm interesting new discovery.
I name the Mineral Ragnite and make Ragnite based tanks with Ragnite Generators on the back that glow blue! Skadia is now the Pricipality of Gallia and the rest of you are now the East Autocratic Europan Empire.
This is the story of Welkin Guther and Alicia Melchiott....
On a side note I'll some how work this mineral as a supplement to Authorities or as Magic Fuel...... if that works.
On a more serious note I have a few changes to make....or at least announcements just for future reference.
Kysmal
1.) Kysmal is the centre most continent and is nothing more than a barren series of windswept steppes punctuated only by vast plateaus in whose leeward arms Kysmal settlements are constructed and basalt pillars of stone protruding from the earth. Storms constantly ravage the continent an blow westward once a year into the Isles.
2.) Kysmal society is organised into various castes. Lucent's comprise the upper echelons as the nobility of the continent each Highlucent beholden to the King and in command of one province, the pattens on their skin have a visible glow. A commoners caste is then decided by how prominent their own markings are, the lowest caste typically being indistinct from normal shadings.
3.) Kysmali Females have a series of ridges over their eyes. There is no real function to this beyond giving them a mean headbutt. Also almost all Kysmali Kysmali have two shades of hair, deep black, and red. While the latter is more uncommon it does not function to change one's social status.
4.) Their authorities typically take the form of changes in state. Abrasion, Tension, Repulsion, and Combustion. In terms of which are the most powerful of the Authorities, the ones able to institute the greatest change and range of functionality, the directional/vector Authorities or Repulsion and Attraction are these.
Mur
1.) I can agree to the information sharing if it means we are appraised of any relics and information gathered from the sea floor and can commit scavengers (it's what the Mur do best) to any oceanic digs or exploration.
2.)Hmmmmm is this mineral specifically local to my nation or can it be discovered anywhere?
3.) Let us know if and when the war is going to start so that I can then make an official announcement about it.

I'd think so.....I'd think most empires would have mercenary companies except those who almost wholly eschew war in favour or more peaceful pursuits.
That being said even if the Mur for example had not mercenary companies I'd have quiet a few independent merchants and sailors who could be hired for specific purposes. On the other hand the Kysmal loathe mercenaries but it doesn't stop their people from forming such companies.

Tactically speaking even with an 'aetheric weapon' they could not hope to hold that territory unless they had captured some kind of defensible fort. Did they win a skirmish or a siege?

sir RAVEN WING wrote:I say center continent or Mideast landmass.
Why? If there is a fleet blockading it, those spots would be the only ones undiscovered. I say center is the best logical idea, as it would explain why we know of no Kysmal.
Yeah the bulk of the Mur Fleet is blockading the continent, and no they aren't surrounding it, they're just patrolling from Shaper made Islands for any Kysmali Fleets that set sail.
Also bear in mind Kysmal is a very interesting place and very unlike the other lands. It is constantly beset by strong winds that flow from East to West across massive devoid regions of plains/steppes in a featureless landscape that is only broken by massive basalt spires of rock that protrude dozens of feet out of the ground and vast plateaus within whose leeward arms settlements can be seen.
Each Province of the Kingdom is dominated by one such Plateau where the only permanently habitable settlements can be found. Beyond that strong winds, sleeting rain, and vast thunderstorms tear at the land altering it.
Because of this the Kysmali only have a few cities that could even be described as ports given the difficulties of employing naval tactics they've never really tried to develop past large troop transports and food barges. This is why the Mur have been able to keep them contained to the main land being both able to sail the seas with less difficulty and employing superior technology against them.
Issue currently with them is that he King has for many years been trying to unite his disparate provinces with the intent to leave the mainlands looking for some external conquest in the manner that Kysmali love.

Technically neither backed down, I assume that means the Durma continued. Yes and no, K'lo stopped the Durna from happening, and Morya dishonoured herself first by going to attack an Ancestor. In a way he did break the law by bring a blade into the ring but he won't be punished as he did so to protect an Ancestor. Again, would it be dishonour to attempt to attack or attack? I say so because as the Blood Laws are it makes it sound as if it would be attack and not attempt. I do not want Jon dead, I am simply curious. You are right, she only attempted to attack and so no Blood Law was broken, however if she did attack she would turn into a dark ancestor, or so the legend goes, was going to have Jon explain it in my next post. Also he was going to explain that he planned this from the beginning. He will eventually die, but not yet.
But he can come back right away. Pseudo immortality right there. I figure it's better for an Artugian to be dead.

When you summon an Ancestor, even for good intentions, you run the risk of summoning a dark ancestor. I roll a d20 to decide what happens (odd = dark, even = good) After two weeks the vessel they inhabit starts to degrade, after a month they are gone. If it is a dark ancestor however, they tend to go when there is nothing to kill or they get put down. Keep in mind an Ancestor can decide to leave whenever they want and can still be killed like everyone else.
K'lo is then likely to die in the Isles unfortunately. I mean in terms of I think Spade and I came to the understand that Mur were some of the fastest.....and even if we do know exactly how to get back to the Isles, on a small and faster ship than the Thalassae.....The shortest I can really get the trip down to is about 5 days.

Trip from the Two Rivers to Errecist would be a day...... so she'd implode in betweensay 12 - 72 hours after arrival.

If Raven gets back to be with a Cauti response I may or may not be able to begin liberation/reign of terror along the coast of South Tal-Man.
Peeps won't get a way with disrupting my trade with the good Tal-Man people nor will we tolerate Mur blood spilt on the mainland by shore-walkers.

Three months has passed in terms of game time since Shuri'den and Grey talked in Skadia.
In that time I've had my expedition that was set into motion before the Festival arrive on the Southern Continent where the Artugians live and settle on the Southern coasts of the land mass where they initially landed. Additionally in that time in exchange for help surviving on the continent the Mur have taught the Artugians to sail though no formal trade agreement has been reached between the two yet.
I'm currently about to have K'lo meet Shuri'den'shalvys is the Isles so she will be the first Artugian to see them, meanwhile Johnny has Artya and Artyee in Pataris with Raven likely with plans to invade Southern Tal-Man to either root out the Cauti and claim their territory or support their efforts.
The Cauti seem to have pushed North and East and established a front a between your territory and the Kilerth County of Osmar using a magic weapon to win their initial skirmish against the humans.
I've no declared the Mur intentions/ or demands to the Cauti that if they continue to hinder trade between Tal-Man proper from the Southern Coastlines or fail to police those routes then I will be undertaking punitive action against them by sending a token force through Osmar to the border between the three involved nations and a Fleet to the South to terrorise the coasts.
The Mur won't be attacking the Tal-Man for keeping slaves even if they are Artugian, they likely will not be purchasing them either, they will not be attacking the Artugians should they land in Tal-Man unless they attempt to hinder lines of trade, harm their people, or attempt to lay claim to the coasts.
Looks like Spade in Osmar is facing a potential coup d'etat by an ambitious nobleman, the expulsion of the Creed from a specific county which can only be a good thing, and now the threat of war with the Cauti in the South West.
Pataris looks to be stirring to aid the Artugians in their quest for revenge though why they fight against the Tal-Man at the behest of strangers they'd not met until now is interesting and likely a cover for something more interesting Raven has cooked up.
The Blood Raiders don't seem to be doing anything at the moment.
And the Kysmal are trying to unite under their King with the intent to leave their continent and look for conquest elsewhere though which way I take them..... North West to the Isles and the Mainland, South West to Artuga, or North East to the lands of the Cathay'Raht I don't know. Tbh I wouldn't mind starting a war with the Cathay Raht.....I think the Kysmal would respect them as enemies.

Dudes who worry me are the Osmar.
Their racial design is bloody flawless. Rifles, Ships, Pike and Plate Armour. Trader Nation with Naval Traditions. Already militarised. Technologically Advanced. Magically Advanced. Numerous, Own Large Tracts of Land on the Main Continent, Owns Crasmere in the North. Has potential to annex Tal-Man between the Cauti, the Bloods, and his own lands. Aeschild's more lenient rule is on the decline. Knows about the Cathay-Raht which we don't. Is friends with them. Cathay Raht are giant ******* Cat People with Dwarfs.
From a military perspective they have everything my people lack. Experienced Modern Soldiers. Disciplined Formations. Vast Lands. Naval Traditions Rivalling my own. Etc. Too flexible and adaptable for its own good.
Unlike Spade other RP factions have more obvious weaknesses to exploit.
I apologise if I've presented them as flawless, that wasn't the intention. Militarily, the chain of command is both a strength and weakness. Whilst it lends to well organised and disciplined formations if that's cut it's put into disarray. Particularly when you consider that presently Earls and Barons themselves tend to lead armies. Say if Coenwulf became king and declared war on the Paric. A quick way to end that might be to take him prisoner in battle. He would however refuse to give up land. On that note, a combined strength and weakness is that the nation is heavily influenced by its ruler. Say again Coenwulf becomes king, his rule could lead to Naval traditions being somewhat neglected in favour of land. The earls also have a great deal of autonomy, they are only required to provide a quarter of their soldiers to the monarch in times of war. They can provide more if they wish, but that requires them to like their liege. Also I don't think I've gotten any magical abilities yet.
No I don't mean that's how you have presented them. It's how I interpret their flexibility and skill sets. In this world humans really are a dominant force and for good reason. Clear and well rounded empire development.
Perhaps their one weakness is that they are too well rounded and don't particularly excel in too many fields in the way a meta human race might.
E.G- Artugian poisoned claws, Mur capacity to swim and stay submerged, Tal-Man size and strength, etc.

E.G- Artugian poisoned claws, Mur capacity to swim and stay submerged, Tal-Man size and strength, etc. Oh physically yes, of course, they try to make up for that with the stuff they use. The only thing I give them in that regard is that they'd be used to the cold (I assume due to how far up they are in the map. Incidentally, that's where the pale skin and hair came from when Raven initially did the map.)
Only thing to remember is that plate armour is incredibly impractical stuff unlike chainmail. You can't wear it in arid environments because it gets too heavy and conducts heat too well.....or in freezing environments because of the inverse.

Posted. Someone needs to keep updating the mainlands about the state of the war.
Oh and Raven you're going to need to pick up the Greatsword if you are in No Man's Wharf. It's typically located up near where you find Gavlan in the standard version of the game and in the dark area above the Fiends that cause bleed and slow.
28 Strength and 10 Dexterity to us though only requires something like 16 Strength to two hand. Likely going to be the best boss slaying armament available to a Strength Build until you find some of the late game weapons.
I recommend it especially if you wan the Crypt Black Sword, PRAISE MUTHA FUCKIN' NITO, the soul of which can be acquired from The Rotten in Black Gulch on NG+ OR if a Bonfire Aesthetic is used at the hidden chamber bonfire where you summon Lucatiel.
It requires 40 STR and 10 DEX and functions more like a great club than a great sword though it scales amazingly with Dark and can hit for upwards of 500 damage again bosses and in PvP.

Yes and no. The Mur culture is eschews combat in favour of other forms of conciliation between opposing faction however the Mur are described as a passionate and emotive people. Reason alone doesn't really account for their actions as opposed to what feels right.
That's something I will explore as the plot presents itself. They make strong attachments to people either positive or negative. In your case it is positive in the case of the Kami it was instantly negative. We're undecided about the rest.
But you are right. I did want to be the neutral oceanic power who becomes rich through trade and interventionism.

They are carrying traditional Mur exports of woven textiles, oils, spices, oceanic products, and other such oddities unique to the Isles. Beyond that generic trade goods that I imagine pass across the borders of most empires including food, chemicals like salt peter, and likely examples of metal working.

Can you post this plot? So that Spade and the other actually might feel guilty about crushing the Cauti or perhaps what they are doing in the meantime.

Hey would it weird anyone out or sound stupid if I established the Mur system of beliefs/creationist mythos as the following.
"All of existence is nothing but one single flowing strand of 'being' , a single hair plucked from the head of the Goddess and cast to Fate with her blessings. Within all exists a single central pattern of cosmic symmetry known to the Folk as Whorl. A pattern that reoccurs in nature as it does in all man made things regardless of intent that inspires balance and guides the flow of 'being' as that single ephemeral strand of hair tumbles down into an abyssal sea under the Goddesses watchful gaze."
For now this is what I will operate on.

Sia'tri is Mur and he's marrying into the Artugian people. Since we have an existing trade agreement with you for your guns and cannon you guys are political allies and therefore untouchable. However the Mur are interventionist especially when a conflict harms potential profits and threatens to blow back onto them.
Shuri'den'shalvys would like nothing more than to get Jon, Grey, and a couple of attractive Mur men and women alone in a room to ease the tension. C'mon guys make love not war.

I prefer the kind of assassination that involves large calibre artillery.
Then it's not really assassination is it. Plus I agree with you. The Skadii-an Navy is all about fire power and mobility.....just not staying power.... plus I often feel like having what amounts to a rudimentary gravity manipulation magic makes fighting Mur really scary on the oceans.
Never underestimate the vast and arguably over powered applications of mundane/vector magic. Attraction, Repulsion, Restoration, Vibration, Tension, Resonation, Abrasion.

Well Raven gave me a mineral that can hold the essence of magic.....so I will soon have automatic doors with the Push/Pull Authorities.... only joking on that one but Push/Pull pumps are certainly important for Mur culture.
I'm thinking or working on self contained Abrasion starting fires and hot pool bathing as well as Resonation based audible messages though I've not worked out how the Fabricae responsible of converting the Authority into cohesive sentences will work.
Magi Technology for the win! Eventually Magi-Bio Technology in the far future.

**** the story is coming along nicely. It will all come clear at the festival. The whole marking Sia'tri in blood is just the elders giving their blessing in front of the other Artugians. If they didn't do it Jon would be challenged for leadership on an hourly basis. Slowly going to work on an internal political struggle that will change Artuga and affect their relationships with the Mur, the Parica and the Tal-Men. This is just the first sign of Jon losing his control and having to rely on the elders. As for Ria, I was originally going to have her smash her claws with the rock but it wouldn't be her place to do so as Sia'tri retrieved the rock.
Should have brought back a bigger rock.....
Oh well Jack and Rose will find their ship of dreams one day. I assume now we are moving on to the festival or is there some sort of Artugian ritual to the bonding thing.

Oh well Jack and Rose will find their ship of dreams one day. I assume now we are moving on to the festival or is there some sort of Artugian ritual to the bonding thing. Well the ritual is usually get the rock, smash claws, go off into the bushes for five minutes, the male walks out like he's some kind of hot sh*t and the woman comes out looking rather disappointed. The only part of it that is ritualistic is the breaking of claws. It symbolizes that you are willing to go through the greatest humiliation known to Artugians for this person you married. So I guess if there is a way for Sia'tri to humiliate himself you could do that as usually its the one who brings the stone from the volcano that has to break his/her claws. A little side note: Jon had 4 other wives but Ria is the only wife that he broke his own claws for. And yes the claws do grow back, eventually.
You want to embarrass Sia'tri? Hmmm well I guess I can try to think up a few ways to do that though what embarrasses Mur on a fundamental level I'm not too sure. I'm sure it will be something rather odd.
Oh well so if he can't break the claws he doesn't get the goods? Poor poor Sia'tri. Ah well next time he'll remember bigger is better.

Raven tell me if you approve/disapprove of the most recent post. Can and will edit since I really don't like it. Gimme till this evening and I'll make it much better.
Characters of the Skadii-an Isles and the Sourthern Oceans
Shuri'den, She of Shalvys that Was, Diviner of the Whorl - Central Leader of the Mur - Powerful Tide-Shaper of the Attraction and Repulsion Authorities - Scholar and Songstress
Man'tiel, Maelstom Commander , Vinnetir's Aspect, Self Professed Greatest Lover in Skadia (since he won Tammari'sen) - Covenant sanctioned Pirate - Embodiment of Vineteer's (Storm God and Male Passion) aspects - Fleet Commander and Warrior
Tammari'sen, High Priestess of Vinnetir, Storm-Shaper, Lady Tempesteyes - Storm-Shaper of the Tension, Abrasion, and Resonation Authorities - High Priestess of the Daughters of Vinnetir - Man'tiel's to-be-Bondmate
Sia'tri, Firewalker, Master of the Southern Expedition - Master of the South Seas/Artugian Expedition - Husband-to-be to Ria - Pathfinder
Sephrena - Shuri'den's protege - Songstress in training
Kal'm, Seashrive - Diplomatic Envoy to Osmarium - Tide Shaper of the Attraction and Repulsion Authorities (apparently rivals Shuri'den) - Leader of the Mur Cohorts in Osmarium
Adelya, Seneschal of Errecist, High Wave Lady, Lady Silver Crest - Leader of the Murguard (Shuri'den and the Mur Lakes personal Guard) - Master Axe Mur - Supreme Commander of Mur Cohorts.
Mur I have decided tend to use other names of people and I will be keeping a list of them. For women this title is prefixed by Lady and then their given name. For males it is simply the title with no honorific given. Usually is as a measure of respect while speaking with others. For the purpose of convenience I'll use the same names every time though the Mur usually make up their own ones from their perspective of the person.
Names mean a lot to Mur.
E.g-
Lady Fairwinds - Aeschild of Osmarium Greatclaw - Jon, Great Leader of the Durna Tribe, of Artugia Stonewarden - Kalimat of the Cauti Lady Redshroud - Owner now deceased, formerly of the Drishna Tribe, or Artugia Lady Nightstalker - K'lo, Ancestor of the Durna Tribe, or Artugia

Should you try to be rude, use phrases like 'Back to Dreadwinds Hatchery with you!' (Anti-Mur and Anti-Kami) and 'Why don't just let the seas carry you away from us.'
They tend to pronounce their words correctly, sometimes carrying out the letter 'S' in any words, as per usual with their accents.
Kalimat does not have this accent, however, being raised by Osmarii.
Oh! And I will write a post for the burial the morning after the attack. I can not wait to see the next post though, very good descriptions too.

They are as modern as you are however they have a magic weapon which by all accounts is not present at the fort. Correct, they would not be given the weapon until they are placed to push forward. These weapons are able to be held and ran with while delivering a massive blow, burning right through every flesh based creature within 70m. (They shoot beam, so think blasters from Star Wars Clones) the center and most obviously the most protected part of the rifle is where the beams are created by harnessing the Magical potential which all creatures have. (Even Ark's whom seem to have the magic of cloaking.) if the rifle is destroyed with magical energy still contained in the armored sphere center, the blast could do devastating amounts of damage, or nothing at all. Psychosis is about to hit home on the Tal-Men. Can't say what's going to happen, but it'll test the toxin created. A hallucinogenic toxin to be exact.
I thought magic wasn't supposed to be all powerful. Magi-technology is one thing.....but being over powered is another entirely. I'm going to assume you only have one or two of these at most.

Cauti - 11 Tal-Man - 5 I used 2 Dice each.
I think I might...... I've also done re-rerolls for a few things that will happen in the section with very interesting results. Overall the result remains the same but the individual siege mechanics of the fight are oh so much closer.
Also rolled for Tal-Man committing their main host to the assault and rolled low (aka smart) resulting in reinforcing the vanguard only.
Casualties
Tal-Man Vanguard - 800 Men - 237 Killed , 409 Wounded.
Cauti-Regiments - 1400 Men - 312 Killed, 189 Wounded.

Creed is formally expelled for the entirety of Tal-Man after embargo by Parics placed. Most converted and now loyal to the state and Tal-Man. They are as modern as you are however they have a magic weapon which by all accounts is not present at the fort. Correct, they would not be given the weapon until they are placed to push forward. These weapons are able to be held and ran with while delivering a massive blow, burning right through every flesh based creature within 70m. (They shoot beam, so think blasters from Star Wars Clones) the center and most obviously the most protected part of the rifle is where the beams are created by harnessing the Magical potential which all creatures have. (Even Ark's whom seem to have the magic of cloaking.) if the rifle is destroyed with magical energy still contained in the armored sphere center, the blast could do devastating amounts of damage, or nothing at all. Psychosis is about to hit home on the Tal-Men. Can't say what's going to happen, but it'll test the toxin created. A hallucinogenic toxin to be exact. I thought magic wasn't supposed to be all powerful. Magi-technology is one thing.....but being over powered is another entirely. I'm going to assume you only have one or two of these at most. Not many and most are used to protect the oligarchy. Less armoured? Finally, would it not be the technology that is OP? Not the magic itself?
Sure. Assuming this could ever be mass produced the weapon magnifies what lack of talent or power is not already there enough to wreak havoc across entire lines of soldiers accurately at 70m in an age where we haven't even discovered the breach loading rifle.......
Throwing these of the front line will cause me to silver bullet the scenario. I think when you said magical super weapon people were expecting massive experimental mana cannon that requires very specific requirements to be fired but incredible destructive power..... not man portable Scrambler Lances.

You guys prefer the battle as perspective oriented or general synopsis?
Former can net us some more interesting descriptions and language techniques though the latter surmises the battle more clearly.

Yeah I need a bit of time this evening to write it all up. Though straight after work I'm off for a 10km bike ride, then going to the gym, then going to see 'The Women he's Undressed' (And no its not a.... its about the man who designed dresses for all of the famous actresses of the 1950's).
So I likely won't have time until well after 10pm tonight.

Weird title) 10 km bike ride to get you ready for the gym... I need 45 min nap so I can watch Star Wars: The Empire Strikes back before I think of doing anything. It is fine life has enough to it. Enjoy it. Lord knows I need more working out.
Pardon my grammar. I don't currently have time for second passes which you will probably note in most of my posts when you see clunky language, repeat words, and spelling mistakes.
I really should go back through and correct them however.
It's called "Women He's Undressed"

He is however subject to a limited form of polymorphism like all Mur controlled by hormones and endorphin levels that somewhat dictates whether or not their sex organs are exterior to their bodies..

I even know the drainage systems of the castle. Impressive. I'm refraining from doing too much detail with a mixture of laziness and an unwillingness to become too attached. And being less experienced but hey, I'm always learning. Having said that I am thinking of finding some way to flesh out the wildlife more, at the moment I'm considering giant birds and I'm wondering if I want the more recently extinct, larger, and herbivorous Elephant bird or the millions of years old, slightly small carnivorous Phorusrhacos. In general I'm basing my animals on extinct creatures, usually more recently extinct. Size chart. 3 is Elephant bird and 5 is Phorusrhacos.
I've worked out the Skadii-an ecosystem. It's primary composed of crustaceans, the occasional few ocean dwelling repitllian predators, amongst a combination of fish and mammals.
Which is why the Mur eat Phrsam and Kresh.

One of my draws towards the Phorusrhacos/Titanis group of birds is that I think it'd be an excellent land creature to properly terrify the Mur when it comes sprinting towards them at 65-ish km/h
It would be interesting to if they could survive and axe to the neck or perhaps have the earth shatter beneath their feet.

Shuri'den'shalvys....... is both name and title.
Culturally speaking all Mur names are broken into two parts, the reason being is that when written in their languages script the characters appear to have a basis in symmetry.
However to answer your question she has no official authority within Mur society, her position within society is purely spiritual. As you might remember the Mur are descendants from the former island nation of Shalvys and as such amongst their people those whom can trace their bloodlines directly back to Shalvys are afforded special positions within their society, hence the unique appearance Shuri'den bears in comparison to her kin. This is actually a hormonal change within her body, much like you have all seen in the Southern Murfolk who now live with the Artugian whose skin lightened in colour and took on a more green hue, nothing magical and has a chance to occur almost 30% of the Mur population.
She also happens to be one of the most powerful Shaper's known to the Folk in Skadia whose authorities physically manifest in the world despite her trying to contain them, another mark of respect amongst her people.
Thus far the Mur are of the opinion that their species is unable to breed without any outside entity as no know instances of successful pregnancies and births between species have been recorded. This may or may not be true as the Mur have not been truly present in a continental sense for more than a year or so, and rather than me not having been considered the subject too deeply is it more logically that outside of Artugia social views have not yet changed enough to really allow relationships to form to the point of inter breeding.
Queen would be the most simple term. Matriarch would be more suitable. She is just a woman of eminent respect that Mur 'want' to serve.
As to whether or not she accepts Grey's advances was dependant on two things. The first being the end of the Cauti arc and a successful return to Skadia (she could possibly die though), the second being my moral misgiving about attempting to breed a race of almost 10 foot tall giant humanoids with a roughly similar species roughly half their physical size.
That borders on sadism quite frankly.
I will try to get this Siege post out tonight if I can..... 'honest injun'.
If I recall correctly the plot was that Shuri'den and her band take shelter in the fortress as the Tal'Man siege party begins it's assault. An almost 1000 heavily armoured Tal column leaves the vanguard trench works while the fortress is subject to artillery bombardment. As this occurs the Cauti forces man the defences at their commander's, a veteran of siege warfare, order.
The bombardment suppresses the Cauti allowing the Tal-Man to launch their two pronged offensive at the collapsed North Western Tower and at the Gate House. The forces upon the Tower gain the battlements sweeping the defenders from them but being cut down by gun fire now exposed on the other side of the wall. The Gate House force stalls but breaches the gates entering the fortress to join the battle.
Over time the Cauti gain the advantage in a pitched battle forcing the Tal-Man back into a retreat across the plains.

Wow this really shows how twisted I am when the first phrase that came into my mind was.....
"Their love making initially seemed possible, however in a passing moment between heartbeats there was a tearing sound and the Mur woman exploded in a sickening shower of heavily oxygenated ichor."

JONNY, YOU ARE NOT TAKING MY PIRATE BAY TO PUT TRUE'S SEX TOYS ON... I mean a new race of delightful people. Damn it I was only going to use the coast for his sex toys, the rest was going to be turned into a 10,000m3 sex dungeon in which the Artugians would use to "punish" the Tal Men for enslaving their people. YOU HAVE YOUR OWN ISLAND. Just convert the underground into a sex dungeon. It's not like the Artugians were doing anything better with their land except dying on it. Oh, and being captured on it. Dying some more. Quick thought, has any greatclaw fallen into the volcano? It would just be like 'Well... damn. The Greatclaw fell into the Volcano. Let's all have a big orgy." Because that's what I imagine you doing with them. Seeing as to marry in Artugian society you have to get a rock from the volcano to prove yourself worthy, yes. In fact I might make a story: A Greatclaw called Rev met an artyee called Vas. They fell in love. Rev decided to propose to Vas, so he climbed the volcano and searched for a rock. As he searched, he fell into the volcano and died. Vas ended up married to Kado, and they lived happily ever after. Well, until the Tal Men came. The End.
The Four Tribes lived together in harmony until the Tal Man Nation attacked.......

Sorry about that by the way. I'm not a writer who can force scenes out especially if there is nothing that is specifically grabbing about the setting.
I just need one great phrase to work from from I'll probably get the first part done this morning and work into a more matter of fact account of the actual battle.
Then..... Johnny will have to tell us how the Festival ends, I'll need to make a post involving my other characters namely Kal'm, and the world may go on.

Hey I know how it goes, there's no point forcing it out. Chances are you'll just get some substandard lines you're not happy with. On the future of the Osmarium, what do I do about the Cat people? My plan was to send an offer to them to join the glorious Osmar Empire. If they refused and Coenwulf became ruler he'd be more...insistent. Then we'd have wacky scenes of monstrous Cat people attempting to deal with the civilised Osmar society, oh the humanity!
If what's his face isn't coming back absorb them and make your place multi-ethnic.... or leave them as a neutral trading partner.
Hey you already have eerily human fish people who don't really understand the whole 'wearing clothes' nonsense you humans seem to have going on trying to integrate into your society.
By the way I need to have Kal'm leave Burtgun with his forces for Coenwulf's army at the border.

Also how the Mur have good relations with both the Artugians and the Tal-Men.
@Spade Two things. One, how does the Osmarii population look upon the Parians? Need to know this for some future stuff. Secondly, Is there to be a scene for Krion and +åschild, or will it simply be skipped? I might try to write up an assassination attempt on Krion.
Poor Krion, he is abused far too much.

Vash Warren wrote:Now wait a second True. I am the one that is going to genetically modify lower organisms *cough Cough the ants :3* also what does your sig mean? Gross side note. I believe any relation ship with the Tal-Man would be like that with the Iron Bull from Dragon Age. A little slower and a Lot harder. (Tal-Vashoth) just something from dragon Age i found.
The Mur were never supposed to progress through a traditional industrial revolution into the machine and glass ages. My goal was to always push them into magi-technology using the magic containing minerals that Raven gave the Mur and from there push them into a era of scientific advancement with biology at it's base.
It's for this reason I have Mur being rather scholarly and peaceful when it comes to living with nature as well as established the Daughters of Vinnetir, a clandestine organisation of women belonging to a hedonistic cult within the Covenant dedicated to the masculine god and representative of Earthly/Physical Passions.
You guys want to know what Tammari'sen and the other Daughters did with the Osmar and Paric sailors from those raids?
Don't worry guys they are very much alive...... except for that Osmar. Wasn't quite so robust as the Mur originally thought.
Now onto important things...... My Signature. What does it mean? Well that actually leads into an interesting philosophical discussion. What does it mean to know what it means to know, y'know? In all seriousness it means something very personal to Kador, True Adamance's actual name is Kador Ouryon in case you didn't know (Khay-dor Our-ee-on), from a very important time in his life.
I'd mean to start project writing for them but that got shelved with the start of weekend RP with Thal Vadam and the group at the Cerra Manor, the DnD Campaign in which Satja takes the main stage as a Tethyrian Monk belonging to a band of Shadow Dancers looking to expand their influence in the North of Faerun, etc. My signature has specific relevance to something more current in his storyline.
" Rays of moonlight seemed to dance between the reaching arms of the cumulus, ethereal and revealing a certain truth in him that perhaps wasn't always obvious. He wasn't the Templar sheGÇÖd once respected as the guiding force in her life. He was vulnerable, honest, and sincere in a manner that he had never allowed himself to be with her before. Across from her, arms wrapped protectively around his knees, was Kador. Only a few years her senior with a crooked frown on his squared-but-pleasant-to-look-at face, stubble now just starting to form around his classically sculpted jaw line, hair a tousled mess. He had a distant look in his eyes that seemed to gaze out upon the heavens that despite his malaise seemed hopefully optimistic.
As for the Iron Bull thing....yeah that would be it as the closest comparison I can actually think of (I quite liked Inquisition for all its faults). Fortunately thus far none of us have been twisted enough to created a race of dwarves with a thing for Tal-Man still the more I reflect on Mur biology the most I believe it's an entirely possible if less desirable breeding prospect.

I've no issue. You guys seemed to be developing them towards allied states. Perhaps just when writing of them just try to keep to the original creators vision for them as a jungle dwelling warriors. They'd supplement Osmarii armies as irregulars and producers of exotic trade goods, they'd eat Murfolk, etc.
I really need to bring back the Kysmal.... I was planning on having them break through the Mur encirclement of their continent and invade the mainland to greet the other races.

I'm going to quickly call some of the Creed characters back over to Skadia and just have them try to make better relations with the Murfolk and all that. Have Yoi do whatever in Skadia (Apologies if I use the name incorrectly.)
Let's see how Kalimat defends against the barage of enemies. (Maybe a major charater death soon?)
Maybe get the Angelis back into the lands
Have Raul happen upon the Mur surrounding the Kysmal, see if the Mur let off a warning shot or let them close in. What about the Artugian Warband coming? They have been sailing fir a while now.
Which warband?
Is the South going to be war torn?

Nothing. Though I think but this point Sia'tri needs some water.......
Anywho do you want some RP goodness from me about the Ancestor or is this plot point inviolable?
Also I just landed in Prague today so I'm going to be out all evening clubbing.... this city is like Mar'Thal but less jungle..... ish.

Also True, if you want to write the evacuation, go ahead, I'm working on Jon's final moments.
Jon could have picked any number of Mur women if her were that way inclined. Get em high enough on Artugan venom and they go crazy.

Hmmm well generational advances may be necessary if Raven wants a time skip. I see these relationships as more indicative of a general social movement within the group explained through the lens of the main characters.
Sia'tri isn't really going to be a unique case and in time perhaps more such couples are likely to be formed. As for timing well the arc with Sia'tri and Riah just effectively ended so I suppose it's time for newer ones to start.

My bad. I got lost in Istanbul since my last post and in the 4 days since leaving (2.5 flying, 0.5 stuck in maddening wakefulness, and the fourth at work) I collapsed yesterday afternoon at my computer, was allowed to leave early, and was asleep for 15 hours.
In the time between...... there was Fallout 4..... I don't apologise for that one bit.
So I will tonight to allow Jon to die. I understand now it would not be a kindness to force the man to live without the use of his legs in Artugian society and would not help the Artugans.
I must start a quest to have Sia'tri find and establish the new Artugian leader murdering whoever attempts to stop him.

Any tips. I love the game but find myself unable to settle on a build. I am neither married to Energy Weapons nor Guns though I find the Laser Musket charming. That being said Guns seem more plentiful and reliable and I'd rather not rule either one out.
In my furthest game I'd just reached Diamond City, completed the Chem Ambush Quest for the Submachine Guns and Rocket Launcher. Also I am considering restarting and moving directly into Hardcore mode. Anything I need to know about that mode?
I also typically find my way to stealth related perks and am leaning towards Ninja when I can access it to pair with melee weapons since they do look to be very interesting with the modding system. Explosives are often also used as traps and I'm looking in CHA perks for the first time to get attack dog levels as well as potentially that Intimidation one late game..... however I don't want to ruin the game by talking my way entirely through it.

There are some benefits in having high CHA but I tend to keep mine at 5 as it can help with some situations and can speed things along if you are stuf, or help you get better deals and rewards from quests. I would suggest early on getting a point into gun nut, lockpick, hacking, and armourer and scrapper. These will help with modding, getting better gear and caps and more power armour frames, and with the scrapper perk, you get screws and other rare crsfting items a hell of a lot easier. For stealth, ninja is the way to go as well as gunslinger (the single pistol damage boost skill. For weapons I would suggest using the 10mm pistol upgraded with a hardend receicer, long barrel, reflex sight and suppressor. As well as a pipe pistol with the same mods. Reason being is that raiders (who you will be fighting a lot of) carry plenty of .32 ammo due to the pipe weapons they use and you can get the 10mm from almost anywhere. For armour, I would suggest getting shadowed leather or metal due to the increased stealth capabilities as well as pocketed to increase your carrying capacity. Laser muskets, I do like the high damage and crank mechanics but I don't use it thst often as I am doing a run and gun build and there is no way to mod it to be automatic. Instrad, I used the Righteous Authority which you gain from a quest. Explosives do go along way. Having a fat man with the MIRV mod or even the Big Boy with the MIRV mod can be extremely useful against legendary death claws. Not to mention luring them into landmines does do a massive amount of damagem I would also suggest having frag grenades and molotovs in your hotkeys as both can work in a pinch and help you a lot. For example: Feral Ghouls are almost always in a pack of 5+, a molotov can weaken and sometimes outright kill the pack. Grenades are perfect for flushing enemies out. Also knowing what to gather to make your own stims, radaway, rad ex and othet chems goes along way too, the chem crafting station is located behind a house in Sancutary hills so you. Agility is another useful skill as it increases your AP which helps with both sprinting and VATS. As for Hardcore, I havnt done it yet, still on my first play through.
Well I know when I do I will be putting points into STR (END) and CHA as I feel Melee weapons are a necessity right now to complement an Explosive Charger style build.
Sure I like guns but the Super Sledge now looks amazing, Rockets are a thing, and if I couple that with say..... a standard Automatic Assault Rifle or variant Machinegun or powerful single shot rifle I can't see much standing before me.
A middling allotment CHA I feel in Fallout 4 is a must have skill since it now does so much. Dialogue is much easier and I find myself able to achieve more from the early game even if I choose not to invest further into it I can grab Attack Dog and Lady Killer not to mention a few of those pacification perks.
At present though I have to say I'm liking character development. I've never cared about bringing companions along in Fallout instead preferring to go it alone but between manual commands, setting traps via explosives and stealth, and their back stories I adore bringing Piper along as my scrappy Shotgun totting investigative journalist.

anyway back to the PR. I cant see how to develop the story as is from the Tal-Man Perspective.
Perhaps just press the Tal-Man vs Cauti War further or pass time by writing about how the Tal are reacting to the half-breeds. Are they intrigued? Socially disgusted? What happened to the parents? Are their opinions changing?
Perhaps you could approach the Mur or Osmarii for more trade or once I pull Shuriden and Man'tiel out of the fire in the next post (I've been meaning to do that for some time now) perhaps your forward trenches might help them out and take them to the camps or something.

Vash Warren wrote:that acctually raised a good point for me. I had not though if the Tal-Man would take all races slaves or just Ants....
You have given me some thought to do, I imagined prisoners of war, but just taking anyone as slaves is possibly in the future. or at the least a good threat. and a nice read, Ruslan might have a future with Tal Higher ups.
I don't see why you wouldn't. To the Tal-Man slavery would be nothing more than fair treatment for the Prisoners of War they capture. As a race that has grown to power on the harsh exposed steppes of the Tal Mani lands and sandwiched between sprawling lands of the smaller races like the Osmarii, the Paric, and the Blood Raiders such is not only pragmatic but also a form of kindness in some respects showing that the Tal Man have mercy enough to care for defeated foes instead of putting them to the sword.
Sure slaves have no legal rights and can commercial be bought and sold at a moments notice but they are alive and may in time earn their freedom or be released by others. Moreover with no codified system of morals directed towards the treatment of slaves you see the birth of the new Ant species as it has come to pass.
Ruslan is yours to RP as you see if. He was intended to be a minor officer in the armed forces but perhaps his discovery of Shuri'den'shalvys will catapult him into a more powerful position. Perhaps the Tal Man will release Shuri'den or perhaps they will hold her as a hostage and enslave the other Mur.
It's up to you and what you think would make for a better story. In the end if what you decided leads to negative feelings between the Mur and Tal Man so be it.
Enjoyment > Story Plot > Alliances.

That's 560+ with Venomhand Killer and possibly more than 600 with Ongoing Damage.

Jonny D Buelle wrote:Bit of Lore about the Ancient one:
The Ancient Ancestor is the oldest and rumoured to be the first Artugian to ascend into (for lack of a better term) Ancestorhood. He is the closest thing Artugians have to a God. His name has been lost to the ages, but has been known to come to aid Artuga but at a great cost to the summoner, that being their pseudo-immortality.
Jon was able to summon him in his last breathes of neing alive, but only just. However Jon can never be summoned nor can his skull be retreived to be place on the throne of skulls.
Unlike other Ancestors, the Ancient can not be corrupted or twisted and only leaves when it is either slain or has completed its agreed upon task during the sacrifice.
Also fun fact: Mila was in love with Jon, which is why she swore to serve as one of his gaurds. She also holds Ria in the highest respect.
By the way True, with Murk heading to the Cauti frontline, would you be able to write them into the next battle if possible?
M'kay. Can you write into your story as the Dark One is killed Shu'um and two of the Mur being thrown from the walkways during the battle.
However Sia'tri can take Jon's skull not being Artugian and might wear it like a battle helmet.....but now I know who the Great Claw must be. Wherever she is Sia'tri will find her..... unless thats supposed to be Mila in which case he'll just have to puzzle the statement out.

Hmmmm welp what's a Sia'tri to do? Probably offer to join them but not before I turn this Artyee over the Stormdaughters. However seems like he can't. Despite wanting to do right by Artuga he can't just go AWOL on the Southern Isle Mur..... especially not with what is going to be happening.
If anyone remember them they are the female devotees of Vinnetir who is god of storms, war, and the male Passion. Also you'll remember that they like taking foreigners alive of various reasons that I've not outlined yet. And damn they've been wanting to get their hands on a live Artugan.
I've got some methods for the things they might do to their victims so let me know if anything might get some information out of her.
Filing her nails carefully everyday while taking their venom for their own devious purposes. If she ever returns to the world she will certainly not be the same and will find herself a true devotee of the Mur pantheon.

Jonny if you want to write a scene for the hunt feel free to use Csh'te and the Stormdaughters.
For reference as Shapers they have Authorities over the Abrasion and Tension forces of the world.
Abrasion- Refers to the kinetic forces associated with friction and the heat generated by it. This field extends to the de-construction and erosion of physical things as well as in some cases magical forces as well. Power in this field is measured not by the size of the object eroded but instead how quickly something can be de-constructed.
Tension- Refers to the binding forces of objects including rigidity, malleability, and more recently discovered how fragile something becomes. Tension Shapers can strengthen various objects with their own mental energies though this is usually very taxing ( if an strengthened object is stressed too greatly it will kill the Shaper, even shattering objects can cause bouts of unconsciousness) and limited to one object at a time.

First port on my **** list and destined for utter annihilation in the most brutal war of extinction I can muster. -Mur ships arrive at Corpselight and attack- -Jakyl loses his ****- -Entire Parian navy shows- -Angelisian navy shows up for once with Mur mimic ships- -Pirates get tangled up in it- I have a feeling you might not want to do that. Anyhow, the Angelis are likely to help in a conflict between the Mur and Parians due to their excellent relations after the Great Wars, and as they certainly have knowledge on your ships by now, they would likely use your own ships against you. One thing you may find interesting is that in parts of Patris Kami are treated as inferior. Now go look at the maps and get those names for me to finish some posting stuff.
Pssssh whatever you say mate.
Once the Kami are extinct I won't even need fleets of ships to destroy entire navies..... and the navy I have would be rather superior as only Spade picked a tactical advantage on the open ocean like I did.

Well, the Kami will be really hard to kill off if their lore says anything. It took the Parians 183 years to assimilate their ancestors, the A'Kami. After those two wars, the A'Kami population was low and declining, so they began breeding with Parians, and after several generations came the Kami. The largest Kami hatchery is in Corpselight with smaller ones along the coasts and a few more inland around lakes. How long is the average Mur lifespan again? (Reminder: Parians have long lifespans compared to humans.)
Something like 80 years though in typical fantasy trope its the lack of long life that drives them to be more successful than their longer lived adversaries.
Make no mistake. Sooner of later I will expunge them from history as the abhorrent beasts they are and then the Parians and Mur can go back to a peaceful coexistence.

Mur use Yul (U-el) as their primary currency.
Yul are chips of precious gem stones encased in glass and set into the frame of a shell. The shells themselves actually serve no value other than as a mount for the gems to denote their worth by increasing size. Many Mur trade without the shells as they consider it a disgraceful waste when many human merchants toss away the shells as worthless baubles.
Mur do not become violent particularly easily but Kal'm had to deal with several such charges of assault when the Mur first arrived in Burtgun.

Nah I want a cultural victory. Kalya doesn't care about world domination or pantheistic supremacy nor do the Mur....except the Stormdaughters and Vinnetir.
We accept that all is transient and one day the silver thread of hair comprising our very universe that fell from Kalya's head with crash down into the ocean below and be swallowed by it.

Oh no my friend. After I exterminate the Kami it's off to lay the genocide on the Cathay Raht because fish people and cat people cannot exist in the same world. It's a matter of survival really.
After that we'll come to some agreement about how things should be before I make pacts with the summon spirits and break the world into three different parallel planes thus ending the Great War in the Holy Ground of Kharlan.

Well while the Mur have comparatively more authority users than most landborn species do only a small number of them actually have any appreciable talent.
As such it relies on an already taxed human resource and a single rather abundant mineral resource to function.
The purpose of Magi-Technology is to reduce the burden on Shapers by allowing them to store their Authorities which can be released at a later time to power a Fabricae to facilitate the function of pumps, lifts, drive systems, and even weapons discharges by reducing tasks that should require complex sequences of magic to perform into ones that only require singular commands.
I don't really know how to balance it's destructive power vs technology yet but I do intend to produce rifles, high pressure water cannon, ironclads, and amphibious armoured vehicles.

"This whole Magi-technology thing smells fishy...." said Queen Aeschild as she sat upon her throne wondering how the Mur had suddenly been able to create vessels clad in iron and cannon that fired compressed water powerful enough to punch holes in wooden ships at close range.
"Very fishy indeed." Considered the Prime Minister of the Pan Tal-Man Congolmerate as he wondered how the Mur had developed armoured vehicles those his own people employed without belching smog into the air and that could emerge from the water like monsters from the depths of the seas.
"Not at all." Replied Krion who had just mounted the first of the Paric rockets destined for the moon. "Combustion Engines are easy."

Vash Warren wrote:Mur + Tal V. Osmar + Paric
3 letter nations V. 5 letter nations
Who shall rain supreme?
Hey I'm not warring against the humans. We're friends.
I am however drafting a trade agreement with the Paric that outlines an exclusive trade between nations of the newly discovered mineral resource. Amongst other facets of trade it basically outlines a minimum supply of three thousand tonnes ayear for the period of one to two years with tacit exclusivity for a period of a further one to two years during which point the Paric do reserve the right as to purchase the mineral before it hits the open markets for another year.
In the prototype agreements exchange for access to this mineral resource which logically is going to be very valuable given its relative scarcity the Mur will demand the right to set tariffs for trade of the mineral indefinitely, either land or a sum of currency of Pataris, and a hostage of royal or noble birth to reside within Skadia as well as for the period of two years to ensure the good faith of your people. After which point the hostage is returned and the fabric weave technologies exchanged.
It will also stipulate non-negotiable that the Kami represent the single greatest peril to the Dominion of the Mur people and thus should they benefit in any manner from the exchange of this mineral resource any and all aspects of this agreement set between the two nations will be terminated and a new exclusive trade partner will be established.
For reference do the Kami represent their own autonomous nation within the framework of Pataris of are they considered subjects of the greater country. In the event of a declaration of war against the Kami people the Mur would simply do all they could to ensure the continued trade between the Paric and their own people.

That's not going to prevent my war of extermination. The moment the last Kami falls and the spawning grounds at Dreadwinds are reduced to charred corpses and shattered eggs the Mur simply capitulate and accept foreign sanctions while exploiting the wealth of non-continental nations, with the exception of the Artugans whom have nothing of value yet, returning to their ancient practices of piracy.

Jakyl has made it official. Jonny, guess who now has the permission to slaughter any Tal troops you see? Well depending on how Raven reacts to the trade agreement which I think is pretty damn fair considering the larger kingdom benefits from an exclusive trade agreement for a newly discovered mineral with the capacity to store magic with the only core stipulation that a small almost autocratic settlement receive none of the benefits of this technology for a period of two years. It's not that I actually hate the Kami it's that strategically their ties to a foreign nation that has proven itself very meddlesome in the past puts them in the awkward position of being the biggest threat to the Mur Navy at sea. I also can't allow the Tal to fall simply because losing a primary trade partner and buffer state would be detrimental to my dominion thusly I feel it best to negotiate the reacquisition of as many Artugans as possible by the Mur while mediating a series of combats between national representatives of the Artugan tribes and Tal Man Kingdom. Both have a powerful martial tradition and thus any disputes between the two should be settled as a matter of honour in combat. True, let me spell it out for you. It is impossible to exclude the Kami without exiling them completely. Kami are in every profession that there is in Patris. Exiling them would likely lead to another Cauti situation or the Cauti gaining a lot of strength. It is just not going to work that way. Your deal will be rejected if the deal must include that part.
Then you prove youself too dangerous to trust with a the latest magi-scientific breakthrough unless I get something pretty worth while out of the deal.
1-2 years elusive supply of magical storage devices that can be weaponized followed by 2-3 years first purchase rights over more established trade partners doesn't come cheap. By all rights Osmar or Tal-Man would have first dibs.
So it comes down to a simple. What do I get out of this?
An immediate exchange of Steel Silk, a royal hostage for two years, the freedom to renegotiate tariffs for shipping goods in and our of Pataris?

Anyway, I simply would like to find a way to remove the 'no benefit for Kami' part, seeing as it is quite impossible. Now, denying it to Kami-majority areas such as Corpselight and the smaller, rising city of Paresh would be acceptable, unnerving, but albeit acceptable. The city of Corpselight will likely still receive some benefits in the richer regions, formed of mainly Osmar and Parians.

Also for reference is this secret to the Titanium Weave some kind of super secret mineral or whatever that simply can't be reproduced by anyone outside of the Paric. If so the answer of your trade deal is '**** Off'. Well, I assumed you would eventually propose the trade deal because my people don't really know of the mineral. Perhaps give the proposal to Yoi and have him travel back to Patris to inform Jakyl, since he seems to be the only important Creed figure in the Isles at the moment. As for the Titanium weave, it isn't some sort of special mineral or whatever, it is simply the product of combining strong metallic ores with silken thread or woolen thread. The technique was originally Dwarven. (I have their land now that they are gone, though some has fallen into Cauti hands) The technique was shared with Parians, specifically those closest to Revon, as a sign of goodwill. What I propose is that I give you finished products, but keep the technique to ourselves, (Bad business to sell the technique.) for the raw mineral you have. Also, it is 'Patris'.
Well I suppose I could initiate a trade but I still don't know much about the Parians because we've not really developed a rapport.... you guys not appearing to have much to trade, and you yourself admitted that a few posts ago.
That said there is no chance me trading you the knowledge of Ragnites existence or quantities of it as a raw material if I am not going to be able to replicate the technology you offer me.
In short I am not selling the monopoly I have on a raw material into a dependency on a foreign product. That would be bad business.
Any deal has to leave both of use feeling like we got utterly ripped off. For example....
Primary Components (Negotiable)
- No deal on the raw material. Alone its too valuable. I'll trade finished products for finished products under the assumption that it is as difficult for you to discover their operation as it is me discover how to weave titanium.
- To ensure the exclusivity of our deal as well as your nations good will we'll establish a period of exclusive trade as well as a period of time after which Patris has first rights to the purchase of exported Fabricae for an additional specified term.
- In return you offer me a political hostage belonging to the royal family or one from each of the ruling households to reside in the Sy'Thal Isles during the period of exclusivity to ensure your co-operation.
- The mutual establishment of Embassies in both nations capital cities is to be carried out and land purchased or ceded to the Sovereign nation establishing the embassy.
Secondary Components (Open to Much Greater Compromise)
- Mur will be dispatched to localities within Pataris with high Kami populations to conduct biological and anthropological surveys.
- Mur offer reduced prices for shipping services to the Parians across the continent.
- A re-negotiation of economic policies to create more agreeable taxation upon imports and exports between nations.
- The Royal Family of Patris acknowledges formally the People of the Isles dominion over the Sy'thal and the Southern Seas as well as the autonomy of the Artugan people.

He is also one of the very few choices in the Isles. Unless you wish to send your own to Patris. ...and there are ways to contact him without seeing him admitted to the Coral Tower. Almost forgot, I am pretty sure a Kami has been admitted to the Coral Tower before, as protection for Revon.

I have confidence in my Murfolk children. Once Vash makes his post covering the part and the arrival of the slaves I'm off back to Skadia to learn what technologies await my people to use in war.

Why not put all their trust into a neutral third party?
Because you aren't a neutral third party. You're marriage with the Paric makes your nation an ally of Patris at best and a political pawn at worst.
Continent wise it's all a game of investments. I have a foot in the door with the Osmarii despite them being tied at the hip with Paris due to Krion's marriage to their queen leaving the two nations in an amicable relationship. Any foreign intrigue that triggers in Osmar will see the Mur involved and backing either the royals or the nobility and if necessary using military force to stop intervention by Patris, or risk seeing Osmar become a protectorate state.
As such my only options are to back either the Western Blooder States or the Tal-Man so that they benefit from an economic arrangement allowing them to oppose foreign intervention by either power.
That said I've also discovered a particular species that I find agreeable in the Southern Oceans far remote from the continent whom have been taken as slaves by the Tal. Rather than contest the cultural right of either I can simultaneously continue to ensure Artugans are freed from bondage without weakening the Tal-Man who actually benefit from this continued trade.
Because I immediately free any slaves I purchase I can't be accused or supporting slavery as no such concept exists in Mur society nor can I be seen to be slighting Tal culture without them accusing my own of being in the wrong. Outside entities simply can't accuse me either or risk losing out on the trade and shipping opportunities of the Mur.
Which leads me into my latest scheme..... but more on that later. All I have to do now is bide my time and wait for Magi-tech to bring me up to part with your nations.
Whelkcannon, Silverfish Skimmers, Magi-tech Rifles and Grenades, Ironclads, etc.

Jonny won't like this but I am in the process of writing a post telling these Artugans to check their god damn cultural privilege because they're involved in something that doesn't just affect them so much as it now affects 3 entire peoples considering they aren't even aware that their Tribes have united, their Great Leader is dead, and that twelve ******* pissed of red heads with broken claws and no weapons are going to get their asses killed.
And of course that try as I might to be wise, kind, and ultimately benevolent ruler who just cut the chains from your ankles, which you twelve don't seem the least bit grateful for and by the way K'lo would be goddamn ashamed of this behavior, that you don't really have the right to question me because I didn't cross the entirety of the Southern Seas, a Continent, and a Battlefield just to be told no.
So my little ducklings you ARE going to come with me, you ARE not going to complain, and if you DO NOT I will have Kal'm challenge you punks to Durna or whatever nonsensical ritualized combat will get through your violent little skulls so I can get you asshats back to Artuga, recovered, and when you are in fighting shape you can come back and sort **** out.
TLDR?
Seriously, No.

sir RAVEN WING wrote:True Adamance wrote:The Division Open Beta starts this weekend... download it you fools and join me when we go rogue to police the Darkzone of New Yorks streets. Hah. I've been waiting for this. You need not tell me. By the way, I missed the closed beta, how are the controls and what are they if you know
Well admittedly they aren't bad but they are a little iffy from what I remember of the closed beta.
R2 and L2 are aim and shoot respectively. R1 and L1 activate your two equipment items.
D-Pad for Grenades, Special Ammo, Healing Options, and Supplies. Initially Grenades of the D-Pad might sound like and odd method but it works very well and you can do some pretty slick things with them.
X to enter cover, Square or O to vault..... it's pretty normal stuff.
A few quick bits of advice though for the Open Beta though will save you more than a few headaches later...
- Apparently in the Beta the standard M4 was the top killer. AR's are king in this game hands down though tend to be shorter range killers than you'd expect. In this 3rd person game people love to get close to you before they attack.
- DMR's are your best back up weapon with great accuracy, impressive RoF, and high damage. Lob a grenade, snag two headshots and your enemy is dead no questions asked. Great combo for attacking high points.
- Before you even head to the Darkzone complete both story mission on Hard Mode several times over for Blue quality Gear. Most players in Beta focused on HP and DPS. This time around a new turret tech power exists. We'll see how powerful it is.
- In the Darkzone keep an eye out for Darkzone keys. Get one or two then try to time it right to get a Darkzone chest. They contain loot and 1000DZ credits. This beta they won't open as often but they're the fastest way to get the top tier items. After you get a primary focus on grinding purple loot by earning DZ credits and visit the Dark Zone check points for different options.
- Before you start looking into fancy gadgets know that the humble Sensor Pulse Equipment option is hands down the best item to carry both in a team and on your own. Seeing hidden players through walls, increasing your damage against enemies, and also hiding yourself from enemy pulses is undeniably the best asset you will have. The Med-Kit is probably the second as it gives you a second powerful health regen option on a seperate cool down from your normal Med-Kits.
- Finally blind fire is undeniable. If someone tries to gun you down in the street and isn't using cover as they advance get to cover and blind fire them down. I've won 3v1 situations using flash bangs and blind fire.
- Always set your top weapon to your 'Specialist' Weapon. Why? Because quick swapping on the fly is a useful skill.
- Finally no matter what you do. NEVER WAKE THE HIVE. Seriously. At an extraction point never give anyone anything to cause them to shoot. A single Explosive Kit and Grenade will kill everyone extracting their stuff..... they will not be happy and you will be rogue. I've watched mobs of brawl it out for hours because of what one guy did at an EP.

Out of curiosity, what side would the Mur end up siding with during the Civil War? I will note that some Mur will die. The two factions would be those loyal to Mila (she will make questionable decisions to be revealed later on) and those who wish to usurp her and remove non-Artugians from Mar'thal (but not Artuga)
Sia'tri made the shipbond promise to Jon because he believed in his vision of a united Artuga (and a united Sy'Thal-Artuga) thus anyone who threatens his chosen successor is an enemy (succession being a very Mur concept)... not to mention M'oq gave Csh'te two Artugans to torture so she's just about as in love as a ****** up sadomasochist can be.
Simply we're on Team Mila unless she does something to profane the ship bond after which the Mur would need to re-evaluate their stance on the Artugans and the people vying for power.
