  • Event: City Affairs Meeting / Auction

    * Throughout the city, and at the various Exigo sites, notices composed on bright yellow paper are posted to announce a forthcoming event.

    Randomly, little pops of magical light and sound burst from the page, and onlookers might correctly guess that some aspiring mage was contracted to make the notices more noticable. *



    EVENT
    City Affairs Meeting / Auction
    (( Saturday, March 15th, 2008 at 2 PM EST ))

    Presented by the Triumvirate of Tyr, Torm and Illmater


    A city affairs meeting will be held at the Trade & Balance Hall in the Sundren City Entertainment District two weeks from the first of next month. The floor will be opened to discuss current events, future city expansion plans, and other topics deemed relevant. Interested parties are encouraged to RSVP.

    Representatives from the Red Blades, Exigo Syndicate, Church of Helm, Triumvirate, Hands of Mundus, Sundarian Military, and the Red Wizards of Thay will be on hand to introduce their organizations and answer questions. Members of the above organizations are encouraged to attend in order to promote their group.

    At the conclusion of the evening an auction will be held on three very unique items, with the proceeds benefiting the non-profit Sundren City Cook for Kids foundation. Items to be auctioned include:

    Leeches (starting bid 3,000)
    Properly applied, leeches numb target areas with their natural anesthetic and ingest infected blood. Donated to auction by the Sundren City university.
    (Cure Moderate Wounds 1x/day)

    Tuego Plumtummet's Tome of Terrible and Terrific Things, Volume III, Part 2 (starting bid 6,000)
    The stunning Part 2, of the rarely distributed Volume III, was what finally drove Tuego Plumtummet to his death. After writing nearly ten thousand pages, three volumes, eighteen parts, and redrafting chapter 80 on the Pluvian Diddlebird, the perfectionist Tuego Plumtummet reportedly grew so frustrated with his last name not ending in the letter T that he threw himself off a tower. Still, the tome is widely accepted as the authority in the terrible and terrific things genre, and quite commonly sought after by the most eccentric collectors. Rumor has it that Tuego's sister, Tammy, is hard at work on Volume IV. Donated for auction from the estate of Nemrinicrimous Galen.
    (Lore +12)

    Ioun Stone (starting bid 12,000)
    Ioun stones, originally called Congenio's pebbles, are magical items often manufactured by spellcasters. When functioning, ioun stones float in a circular pattern around their bearer's head, and grant various benefits based on their color. Two stones of the same type will repel each other. When drained of power, a stone becomes a dull grey, but still possesses the characteristic floating. Donated for auction from the Hands of Mundus.

    A small, extra bit of enchanted parchment is added onto the bottom of some of the posters, it reads,

    To anyone attending this forth coming meeting - there have been meetings among some of the factions that there will be possibilites to have talks with the representatives from the factions and possible recruitment prospects to some people attending.

    *Elric walks up to the parchment and reads. After reading, he wonders why the Arcanus Liberus was not invited as an organization?*

    *Elric decides to go to the government building and ask why this is and if the Arcanus can also reserve a spot at the head table*

              Dagorn begins to read the note, his pipe in the corner of his mouth. A slight chuckle escapes as he lets a small plume of smoke rise from his lips. "i will have that stone"...Dagorn then licks his lips and Begins to think deeply of what is too come...

                Snow Hawk doesn't read or write, so has no idea. That and the fact he doesn't enter the city except in dire circumstances. Sorry, he'll be online, but unable to attend.

                    Somewhere off in the mountains, a rock falls on Karthus' foot, thereby making him unable to attend.

                        * Rumors circulate several days after the official announcement that the auction proceeds will now benefit the Sundren City Love to Read program, as the former head cook for the Cook for Kids charity was recently arrested for poisoning a state witness within the Sundren City jail.*

                            Squinting his eye, Jack looks at the yellow paper with an ephemeral glint of curiosity. Attempting to discern the letters, he's caught off guard by an abrupt sternutation. Jack's subsequent view of the affiche changed from something intended for communication to something with more practical applications. He left the now-crumpled poster on the ground while itching his nose.

                            OOC: Sorry, Saturday is the day I get with friends for D&D, so no Jack at the auction, look forward to it
