Patrol of Covetowne - 8pm, Wednesday 14th November 2018Seventh and final patrol complete! In AttendanceSerj Eason, Watchman (Squad Leader) Ilyana Drachen, Senior Arcanist Sheriam Palmer, Junior Guardsman Tyrael Styx, Junior Grenadier Axiana Masteen, Patrician Carolin Kazami, Commoner Patrol Notes* Turned up late to patrol dressed in my 'bard uniform'; had come from a gig in Minoc. * We navigated Covetowne with the mantra, "Hearts and Minds". We engaged the citizenry with high spirits to boost local morale. * Local citizenry had various errands that needed helping with. Some of them we saw to (Senior Drachen escorted a noble to Moonglow), others we couldn't assist too greatly (a bride that was left at the altar, terrible..!). * Carolin had concerns over the Covian Bank and it's loan interest rates. * Junior Palmer and I were perplexed by oddly stacked haybales. * We finished the patrol atop the Covian Wall. Whilst it has been beaten up over the years, we stood watch. All was well.  Serj Eason, Watchman

In Character Boards / Events Board / Tuesday 13th November 2018, 7.30pm GMT - Building Base

When: 7.30pm GMT Where: Meet at Barracks Bring: Combat Gear! To supplement the patrolling rota later in the eve, I will be constructing an outpost just outside the Covian graveyard at 7.30pm to facilitate the Building Base Watchman’s Duty. At 8pm, we will engage the Undead at the Covian Graveyard. It was identified in a patrol earlier in the week that the Undead have completely overrun the Graveyard and are beginning to spill into the Covian Shire. Using the fortified position constructed, we will advance upon the Graveyard and see justice done! The rest of Covian Shire will then be secured. Serj Eason, Watchman

Serj packed his combat gear away in the Barracks. It had been a hard week. Five patrols completed; two more to go to complete Captain Morana's gruelling challenge of tightening security around Cove.
What Serj had seen on these patrols had weakened his resolve somewhat. Sometimes there were too few guardsmen on duty to make the country safe. Other times, the Covian soldiers were bested by a stronger enemy. However, on his way from the Barracks to Cove he happened upon a deer.
The deer looked calmly at Serj. It had not been caught and eaten by an orc or another wandering monster. It did not seem startled or flustered. Serj walked up to the deer, which still did not move. A fine meal, he thought. But, instead, he smiled at the deer - and he let it live. Cove was becoming safer.

In Character Boards / In Character Board / Ambush Training with Vesper
|
on: November 12, 2018, 10:30:09 pm

As part of my rota I had scheduled a patrol to Orc Fort for this eve, but a raven was received from Vesper inviting us to attend a Joint Training Exercise. An excellent opportunity to work on relations with our former enemy and also to learn of their strengths (and weaknesses) should we ever fight them on the battlefield again..! In AttendanceEsca Flowne, Redguard Commander (Leading) Rimeny De Blaze, Redguard Captain Reg, Fireband Garrofi, Fireband Raiden Morana, Captain Leanne Martin-Melior, Regular Scout Falconheart, Junior Grenadier Serj Eason, Watchman Carolin Kazami, Commoner Training Notes* We were split into two teams, Green and Red. Commander Esca Flowne had one team ambush the other as they advanced up the road to Cove. We had several attempts at this, with interesting results both sides. * Various combinations of attacks were utilised - although none could defeat the punishing teamwork of Captain Rimeny and Firebrand Reg (A.K.A. KALDORIAN BASTARD). They were well drilled soldiers. * We finished the session with a simple defence exercise, with teams alternating. * A fine co-operative between Cove and Vesper! And, afterwards, the Vesperians kindly assisted me with my Orc Fort patrol. Serj Eason, Watchman

Patrol of the Orc Fort - 9.30pm, Monday 12th November 2018Fifth patrol complete! In AttendanceSerj Eason, Watchman (Squad Leader) Leanne Martin-Melior, Regular Scout Carolin Kazami, Commoner Rimeny De Blaze, Redguard Captain Reg, Firebrand Garrofi, Firebrand Another.. mysterious Vesperian dressed in blue and black Patrol Notes* After an exhausting training session led by Redguard Commander Esca Flowne, the Vesperians were kind enough to accompany us Covians on a patrol to the Orc Fort as scheduled in the rota. We completed a forced march from the Vesperian border. * A sea of Red and Tan assaulted, with the Orcs struck by the swiftness and severity of the attack. * Before they knew what was happening it had already happened. FOR THE NORTH! * On returning to Swaggers Inn to thank the Vesperians for their aid, it was revealed that one of them was a former Kaldorian soldier. I could not contain my outrage.. A murdering bastard is allowed to walk freely. I took my leave. This will not stand.  Serj Eason, Watchman

In Character Boards / In Character Board / Exploring Other Lands - A Dream..?

I must have fallen asleep. I went to grab my armour, but it was nay there. I could only find a ragtag assortment of garb, so I dressed myself like one of those Exploring Officers. I set off on recruitment operations. Captain Morana had always talked of recruitment and how we must keep up with the initiative. I ventured first to Britain, but it seemed strange.. AND BUSY. I left my banners around as per usual, but everything seemed off. I went to New Haven and was offered food by someone from a guild I did not recognise. I ran out of banners so I went to the Provisioners to buy more supplies, only to be told that I had insufficient funds. EH? I had received my pay from the Baronship coffers.. I had plenty! I decided to venture back to Cove to see what had gone wrong with my payroll. But to my horror.. it had changed! Strange statues rested just outside the Covian gates. And in place of the Barracks was a large castle! I happened upon a tombstone marked 'Tiffany Moon', Mayor of Cove. Mayor of Cove? We hadn't had a Mayor in years! I heard a noise. Monsters. They set upon me. I was weak. Weaker than I ever had been before. I tried to parry their blows, but I could nay. T'was as if all skill had left me. I ran to the end of llama point. With no cloth to construct a banner, I dropped my recruitment book. "FECK IT!" I drew my sword.. a katana of all things..!? And I fought.. and fell. Then I woke up. Serj Eason, Watchman

As it isn't quite the season for picnics, I took to arranging a Soup Kitchen for the locals of Cove. In AttendanceSerj Eason Kelly Sanderson Ilyana Drachen Carolin Kazami 'Logan The Beggar' 'A Chef' Soup and bread was provided for all guests, courtesy of Miss Axiana Masteen. We talked, told stories and sang songs. T'was nice.  The kitchen was setup in a quiet meadow outside Cove. Sergeant Sanderson tells a story. Watchman Eason recites "Lost In Love" by Regular Guardsman Nicholi Ravnthorn. A classic. With the kitchen packed away, the reporting begins.Serj Eason, Watchman

Patrol of the Graveyard - 7.30pm, Sunday 11th November 2018Fourth patrol complete! In AttendanceSerj Eason, Watchman (Squad Leader) Ilyana Drachen, Senior Arcanist Carolin Kazami, Commoner Patrol Notes* We had reduced numbers this eve (and for the hardest patrol). So few we were that Carolin Kazami, an innkeeper by trade but keen with the bow, stepped in to represent a Covian militia of sorts..! * We could not take back the Graveyard. The Bone Knights were out in force and we used some Covian engineering to make a dent in the Undead forces. * Both the Citizen and Senior Arcanist Drachen performed well from this vantage point dubbed.. 'The Assault Post'! * The Graveyard is OUT OF CONTROL. It is my recommendation to Command that further patrols are dispatched there, and in greater force. Serj Eason, Watchman
