Message marked URGENT on the Posts of the Realms

Post by Daediana » Wed Oct 18, 2006 7:45 pm

*a large piece of parchment is pinned up to the post of every town baring one for information... the words URGENT lie across the top in big bold letters*

To the friends and family of Lorekeeper Kladian Sandail:

It is with great regret and saddness that I bare this new to you all. Lord Kladian had been ill for some time now, and is losing the battle quickly to his illness. It is requested that all who cared for him gather quickly in Waterdeep at his wife's quarters in the Temple of Selune. He is being guarded and watched over there by the priests and priestess of both the Binder and Selune. There is not much time! Please come quickly!

With Great Saddness,
Loremistress Daediana Jacobs of Oghma

You might want to email this to the Kingdoms journal to be posted there, since it is ic information. Or post it to the player run rp section in the general forums.
Justice is not neccesarily honourable, it is a tolerable business, in essence you tolerate honour until it impedes justice, then you do what is right.

Spelling is not necessarily correct :)

Feel free to set up a copy of it in the Player-Run Roleplays thread.

I'd prefer to put more "long-term" texts in the Kingdoms Journal. For example, if someone wants to write an eulogy for Kladian or something similar, it can be put in the Kingdoms Journal. I see the Kingdoms Journal as a place to keep records rather than announcements about a particular event. I'm not sure I manage to make the difference clear though :)

My mistake on that, I remember you said that the journal was for long term information and stories about the ic life in the mud, Maybe it would be good to set up a temp journal in the boards called the bulletin or such. Though it might not be something really needed at the moment. I miss the ticker somewhat.

What about: "The Kingdoms Journal is only for texts that remain interesting for a long time. They can contain tales of past events, rolls of important characters, IC comments on past events and roleplays. But announcements and other messages that are only valid or of interest for shorter period of time are better posted in the Player-Run Roleplays thread, or on the in-game boards."
