1. Upcoming Events:
ROGUE FORUM
There's a rogue forum planned for all you rogues and rogues at heart, on
September 9th at 8 PM EST in the Sweet Oblivi Inn Sitting Room (DIR INN inthe
NW QUAD). Join your gurus Revel and Astraea for a night of deceit and
skullduggery that everyone is invited to attend! Please keep in mind
that this will be a rogue forum and therefor the topic will be rogues and
only rogues.
CENTAUR GARB
A roan centaur was spotted signing up at the local merchant guild by one
of Sid's tavern wenches just yesterday. After a bit of weasel wording among
other things, she learned that the centaur was a merchant who dealt specifically
in hard to acquire centaur-wear! So keep an ear out for hooves and an eye
out for this centaur of fashion coming soon to a wagon near you.
LYRE AT LARGE
One of our resident warlords has landed himself in a spot of trouble by stealing
a certain lyre belonging to the muse, Terpsichore. Timalcus has several people
hot on his tail, most of them out for the lyre for their own reasons. So
be sure to watch the next instrument that comes flying into the air just
within grasp, you might just find yourself holding the key to this plot of
scheming and intrigue.

POISONING PRIESTS & WARRIORS
All warriors and priests can now attempt to poison your weapons with the
best of them! The local hospices have been put on full alert so poison away,
just try and remember which end you put the stuff on!
NEW STORYTELLER GURU: JUBALEE!
Our hard-working Holyph has rustled herself up a new co-guru to finally make
her the co-guru that she always wanted to be. Congratulations to Jubalee
and to all the storytellers, we're in for some fun!
HARASSMENT
Please be aware of the many options available to you to keep yourself out
of unwanted situations. Make sure to check HELP AVOID, HELP CHIDE, and HELP
DEMEANOR and consider these options in encounters with unsavory people. If
you find yourself in a situation that you find undesirable and beyond your
control, remember to REPORT the problem so that a GM can get involved with
the situation. See NEWS 19 in-game for more helpful tips!
