For some time I have worked on a project, and now it is almost finished (or at least version 1)

This is NOT  a guild it is a project.

I would appreciate if everyone looked at it and gave me some response on it. Constructive critisism is also accepted

*A sealed letter from the Avatarian church of Britain lies on the table at the Preceptor's table*

Your eminence, Templar Preceptor Hugo of Rothermere, of the Covian Church

It is with my great regret that I must send you this letter with the help of the underground of Britain. I expect you do not know how this letter came into your sealed office, nor will I tell you. All you must know, is that we, the Clergy of the Avatarian Church of Britain, a few days ago sent a package with vital information about the survival of the Church towards cove. It was escorted by five Templars and the package was held by a young magistrate of Britain, Dorian Eclarius. Two days ago we recieved word that the escort had been attacked en route to Cove in the middle of the swamp just south of Altmere.
The five Templars had been slain in the swamp but there has been know signs of the magistrate. Our wise clerics found evidence that a portal had been created within the swamp, and yesterday we recived a pigeon from Dorian Eclarius.
It seems the pigeon was near death on it's journey towards us, and it should be. It flew all the way from Ilshenar and the Avatar knows how to Britain. All we know now, from the short letter attached to the pigeon, that Dorian Elcarius is in an Undead Keep east of the Shrine of Compassion in Ilshenar. That is all we know.
We order you to send a detachment of Militia guards commanded by a member of your Templar order. Words of this must not reach ears outside the church, therefore. Disguise the mission as a normal patrol lead by a squire. Make sure it is a squire you trust. Also send Church Sentinels with him to make sure that there are others that know of the real mission. Without the knowledge of the Guards, they must find the magistrate and bring him home safely with the package, if he still has it. Beware that the attackers can still be in the fort.
I do not have to point of the importance of this task, and I trust that you, our good ally of the Covian Church, will proceed with the means necersarry to complete it. The package MUST reach Cove and the magistrate should hopefully be alive when he arrives. Make sure to gather evidence on the group of attackers. We must learn about this enemy.

May the Avatar ben with you,

Signed by
Arch Bishop Thomar Dean

*A note from the Church banged up on many housedoors*

The Church has chosen the candidate it sees most fit for the role as Mayor, and recommend that others follow the same path.

Ysabelle Orion is the Church's chosen candidate. The Avatar and his guiding wisdom has seen her fit for the position of Mayor.

May Cove prosper in her term.

[Truth, Love and Courage!]

*A monk stands on a box in the town centre and yells*

"The Almighty Avatar sees everything! Heed my words citizens of Cove, for he is never showing mercy to those that work against him! Turn to him and pray and he will forgive you your sins and allow you once again to show him, that you are worthy of the wonders of the paradise, his Holy Kingdom.
Take the Avatar and his teachings to your heart and become a better man! Become a milestone for others, so that they may also turn to righteousness. Help others find the love and wisdom in the holy words of the Avatar. For just as the Avatar loves ten righteous believers, he loves one sinner who turns to good more! Deliver yourself to the dominion of a greater lord! A lord of Truth, Love and Courage! Search your heart for feelings and see, that this is what is right for you!

The Avatar said:
Be Honest, for I will always know the truth.
Be Valorious, for I know what courage lies within your heart.
Be Compassionate, for I know what love your show.
Be Honorable, for I know when you stand for truth with your courage.
Be Just, for I know your seek the truth, tempered by the love in your heart.
Be Sacrificial, for I know when you have the courage to give yourself out of love.
Be Spiritual! For I know when you think about the Truth, Love and Courage within yourself and question it before me!
Be Humble! For I know when you have learnt your place in the world, not according to your own accomplishments, but according to the intrinsic value of all individuals!

Give yourself to the lord! Show him your faith and give him your thoughts!
But remember that selfishness is not rewarded! Do not ask for the tasks to match your powers, but for your powers to match your tasks! Believe that what you ask for is given, and you will have it!
The Ways of the Lord are many and clouded with wisdom beyond our comprehension.

May the Avatar be with you.
Deus Vult."

[Evil Being]

Two words: Evil Being

It is no longer than that! They are elves that have been exiled to live beneath the earth because of their evil traits, they are vey vengeful and it is a society where women have the power. No man can speak up to a woman down there. Drows raid the surface to make sacrifices for their god, Lloth or whatever, and to pillage and kill. For the fun of it.

So they are two words: Evil Beings!

There are so many: "I am the good drow! Not like my brethren!"-drows these days that it's almost heartbreaking 

[D&D]

We can't say that Elves don't die... This is because there are two systems that people base their elf characters on.

D&D and Tolkien

In Tolkien's universe elves are immortal and cannot die from age, though they can be killed.
In D&D elves become something about 500 years or so.

If everyone just played "elves" it would be much more simple, but since there are also people playing "Drows" it is kinda hard to find out which system to base it on. Also with religion and such. I guess that when the new expansion comes, it will become even more mixed up and wierd... So my advice, play your elf like you want, all that actually matters is that he is an elf. Then he can be arrogant or kind or evil or whatsoever. Just like humans

The dark clouds made the day seem as dusk. In the shadows of Cove crept a silent figure around with a thin blade well hidden in his sleeve. Tom the Redeye was not a man to be thought of as good. He was wanted and known for his cruel and cold behaviour. Three persons had been killed by the silent blade, and the Militia had not even been close to his capture.
Tom crept silently along the side of a shack. Within he could here a baby's scream and a mother and father being over-excited. A new kid, eh? Tom thought, sneaking to the window and peering inside. The husband was the carpenter of Cove, and the mother a weaver. The little kid was all wrapped up in some sheets, and Tom thought it looked... delicious...
He snuck under the window and to the door, opened it without a sound and coming inside the well lit house, from behind the big carpenter. He took notice of the big hammer leaning against the wall only a few feet from the carpenter. With his arms he would be able to grab it and swing it quickly and hard. Tom had to be careful.
He revealed the lethal knife and took a few steps toward the carpenter.
Die you fool! Tom thought standing now right behind him.
"We're moving to Vesper dear," said the man to his wife.
"Why?"
"Because I hate this town filled with creeps trying to kill me with a knife!" Tom's eyes widened and he gasped. The shock was more than he could take. With a sudden movement the carpenter had grabbed the hammer and smashed it upward, hitting Tom right under his face. The spined cracked and sent Tom flying backward, hitting the floor with a dump sound. The last movements of his body was only reflexes, sending out the remnants of what was once the dreadful Tom the Redeye. Killed by a carpenter who just wanted to leave town and felt he would kill the man sneaking up to him. So easy... So... damn... easy.

And that is the first minutes of Mathus' life. Experiencing his father killing a murderer. What at tragedy.
Mathus grew up in the town of Vesper learning the craft as a carpenter, but at the age of 15 a terrible sickness grabbed hold of him. For three years he laid in the bed, only the love of his father and mother, who had been unable to get other children, kept him alive. Their sick child brought them to the brinck of poverty, had it not been for a wandering librarian, travelling through Vesper. Somehow, the kindness and humor this librarian brought with him held Mathus alive. In the days the Librarian stayed in their house, he told stories to Mathus of great warriors and wise priests. Somehow the tales of blood and violence frightened Mathus, and instead he wanted to hear more of the priests.
Sadly the librarian had to leave, but Mathus' father asked him a favour:
"Take my son to your library. Teach him your skills... I have forsaken him..." The librarian agreed, since he loved the company of Mathus.
When they arived at the library Mathus had gotten more sick. He was now all gray in the face. But the monks at the library knew a cure, and suddenly he was cured of the aweful disease. He kept his gray color for months, thus the monks and the librarian called him Mathus Gray.
Mathus learned to read, write and speak Britannian fluently with sense of diplomacy. As 26 years old he was sent to a monestary to help building a library there, he met a priest there who made such an impression to him, that he asked how he could become a priest himself.
Seeing Mathus ahd already the basic skills and knowledge of the Avatarian faith, the Father told him, that the city of Cove was in need of disciples for their Church. Mathus left immediately and came under the service of Sir Hugo, the preceptor of the Templars. He had many dreams and ideas, and he was willing to work hard to achieve them.

HAHAHAAA! I am here and loving the girls!

Due to problems Mathus Gray and Kas Valentine have been excluded from the jury. Two new members will be found and told of their assignment.

Also... if magery was only infidels and such, we would have to do something about the Militia, since I am sure the Commander would also have the same point of view...? Now that we have spellcasters in militia ranks magery must be accepted.

Hehe.

I have never read anywhere that magic is banned from the Covian church. We are not the Yew Templi 

Anyway, Arc is a necro? Aint he also mage?

Also stated the letter is: "I would much more like to be escorted about with a couple of Templars, but since we do not have many Templars, I believe this is the best solution."

Soooo... magic not banned 

Im not planning on making Mathus a GM, only about 80ish or something.

[OOC: The following is only ment for Hugo/Tib/Oct and cannot be mentioned IC by any other than those that have talked with him or me about it, or has a very good reason for sneaking into the church. I post it only to show people what activity the church has.]

My excellency, Master of the Templars, Preceptor Hugo

I have long been going around with the thought of digging into the study of the arcane arts. I have seen many a good man with powers of the magicians, and they seem quite capable of defending themselves with this skill.
Since my assault during my pilgrimage from Yew to Cove, where I was assaulted by bandits, the Avatar bless the militia for their avenge, I have been quite nervous about wandering the streets alone.
It has come to my knowledge that a guard called, Arc, is a quite good arcanist and that he is one of the best in the militia. I would like to ask permission to begin as an apprentice of his in study of these arts.
It has also been said to me, that the apprenticeship of a mage is quite expencive, so I must also ask permission to loan money from the Church coffers, to support my training.
I humble ask thee, master Hugo, to consider this request, and remember, that once I have learnt these arts, I will be able to teach new disciples the ways, so that also they may be able to protect themselves walking the streets. I would much more like a Templar escort, but since we do not have many Templars, I believe this is the best solution.
If you have any other proposals, please let me know. I will await your answer with great anticipation master Hugo.
