Rumors heard throughout Oscura.



  • A brawl between sailors and Black Lotus members filled the streets of the docks, until Black Sail and Guards broke up the fight. Apparently it was over rumours that Jario would increase docking fees by double or even triple, but these rumours remain quite unfounded.



  • The normally aloof Admiral Ashire has now been seen frequenting locales far more often. Even with the company of various women folk and rising Oscurans. What brought about this new bout of friendliness is unknown but he seems to be willing to speak to anyone even more so than he did before.



  • The bounty of Arlinn seems to have been removed from the board of bounty. Rumours can't quite agree on the reason.



  • A large pale man known as Marshal to most was seen leaving the Keep of the Fallen for the first time in many years. His demeanor is pleasant and he seems to be well rested, and he has frequented the Mithril Mug and the Coppers many times in the last few days.



  • Creg fester has been seen reading every book in the library that has to do with souls trapped, weather it be in gems or weapons or golems. Also studying the creation of sentient weapons thought history.



  • Ferdinand continues his training as an Oscuran Peacekeeper and word is that his training is soon to come to an end and should be seen within Oscura once more very shortly



  • Creg Fester is offering a reward of 2000 gold or a free(less the cost of components and materials) FEC enchantment to any that can get him Gallows Blade Ignas Touch back



  • Red haired man around age of 40, armed and armoured to the teeth, is often seen in the company of the Kyzanos brothers.



  • Ekmen Kyzanos has been lately often seen to leave to hunt on the surface instead of his more traditional hunting trips to underdark. In the most of the times he also can be seen to come back carrying a sack full of something and heading straight to his home instead of his usual after hunt visitation to the coppers.



  • _Taunts and brawls between the two factions of the Black Lotus are becoming more common, yet each refuse to charge eachother legally through some twisted sense of honour.

    It seems one side is led by Jario, who seems the most likely one to take over from Lord Gallows, being the most senior officer. This side is mostly made up of sailors and other dock-types.

    The other side is being led by a mysterious upstart called Balthazar, whose members are the more religious, inner city types. There are rumours Balthazar is being supported by one of the major churches, but the rumours cannot agree on which._



  • Up on the surface the moon lit the nars pass with an intense light, the sound of crying wolves escaped through the thick forest. Deep below however, the machinery of what is Oscura's main district with town criers and merchants payed no notice of what product the nature had to offer up above. A black and red armored warrior, elven judging by the size and movement, walked down the main street.
    Taking his weight and slim yet muscular body into consideration, it was not without a commoner's eye brows by the side of the street met into a frown from the heavy echoing sound of the man's plated boots slamming down on the cold stone floor as he closed in on a gathered crowd. The crowd momentarily went silent as they heard the sound of the man trotting into a close distance.
    Closing in, he made his way through the people who quickly made a free passage for the warrior with spiked shoulders , two long swords seethed to his side and a large shield somehow attached to his back.
    He stopped by the bounty sign and grinned while he looked piercingly at its offer.
    "Why hello there 10, 000 gold coins, you old scoundrel, all this for only the head of a mage?"
    He slapped some cave-dust from his plated chest as he grabbed his shield from the back and headed for the gates.



  • Lora is seen entering the prison frequently in a rather foul mood, then returning with a slight smirk on her face.



  • it is also heard that Creg is offering a reward to information about the stealer of the blade or the blade itself



  • _It appears there has been much happening on the Oscuran streets since the end of the auction.

    Non-lethal fights have started in the Coppers and the streets between Black Lotus members, over what seems to be a leadership dispute.

    Rumours are abuzz that one of Lord Gallows swords was in fact stolen from Creg the wizard by unknown individuals, but apparentely one of them were captured by the wizard and now lies in the Oscuran prison._



  • Shortly after this the beautiful artist of the Kyzanos family Gloria was seen leading a spirit through the strees of the city to the Well playing a haunting melody upon her harp. When she stopped playing the spirit entered the Well and disappeared.
    She spends a lot of time now sitting beside Dirge and peering into the depths, but took a long break from this to play and sing for the Masquerade Ball, but not the same new tune she had played through the streets earlier.



  • Few days before the Masquerade the Kyzanos brothers Monshar and Ekmen as well as Vladimir Kursk and some nameless swordman returned to Oscura, some of them very badly wounded. They were carrying a corpse of person who clearly seemed Thayan and was wearing similar clothing that those assassins that have been lately making several attacks against Kyzanos family.



  • After the 1st Annual Oscuran Masquerade Ball concluded Ferdinand Locke was seen escorting the lovely Ahmose Hetempet Sakhmet to her residence. They exchanged pleasantries and then he departed to the Peacekeepers tower to begin the next phase in his training to become an Oscuran Peacekeeper.

    OOC: Gone for 2 weeks on Training so this is to explain my absence



  • @3ed09c42d4=Mkable:

    _Ferdinand Locke, his guard and a stranger were seen leaving out the West Gate. Soon after his Badly wounded Guard and the stranger returned…bearing the Body of Ferdinand.

    The Stranger slipped away to Surface Lands, while the bodyguard took Ferdinand to the Temple. He spent Several nights there praying with the body; dressing its wounds and making it presentable.

    Awaiting the Locke family or a Miracle_

    Vladimir Kursk takes the body to farther Dagon a few days later, shortly after accompanied by Dar'lith, and ensures the bodys return to life.

  • _Vladimir Kursk seems to have joined the peacekeepers after talking to Senria in the park for a long time. Some mutters amoungst the inns and bars seem to approve of the decison "a finer cearrear"!. Others say that common guard duty is beneth him. Most are simpley inpassive to the news.

    Yet from now Kursk seems to be walking around the city boarders more often, checking on others and does all with a smile_
