News:
The end of an Era has come. Magic is broken. New Heroes are needed to face the challenges of the new Age!

Constables of Icefia / The Kingless Crown
« on: December 14, 2011, 12:28:53 AM »
After hearing the somewhat flat, emotionless statement from the herald, the Marshall mounts the stage and takes the pronouncement scroll from the herald's hands. The man is clearly badly shaken. The crowd now numbers over 1000 and they are growing impatient for information.
The Marshall after reading the scroll to himself, his mask hiding his reaction, reads aloud:
This evening, a few minutes after dusk, his Majesty, Darscon Gemblade, High King of Icefia was slain. His majesty and his Court were at the Headquarters of the Northern Army; in the far northwest frontier, in the newly opened mines. A beast, like those that attacked our capital only a few days hence emerged from the gloom and struck the encampment. It slew many and struck down our beloved king.
To those subjects living in the lands of the High King, a state of emergency has been declared by the order of the King's Steward, Howland Crystalsmyth. All subjects are to return home each evening no later than the 7th bell after midday. Those who have business after that hour must register with the constabulary each week.
More news shall be released as soon as possible.

Feel free to plan your next moves.
The men with the captain trail behind him. You see through the stone as they leave the dock two large wheeled dolly's each with a very large keg, 200 gallons, begin to follow them, moving on their own. The men seem aware of them.
The men with Ashstaff and Marfanz form a box around them.

Feel free to begin by brainstorming as you were when we broke. The greatest danger at this point is that you misdirect your attention based on incorrect recollections.

Constables of Icefia / The Paper Chase and the Ice !@?* Breaketh
« on: October 05, 2011, 06:07:38 PM »
A bit of unfinished business before we move on: When Vasili enters the Gate House Turret he finds 12 men, all human, unconscious. The temperature in the turret is even colder than outside and takes your breath away for a moment but it appears to very slowly be equalizing with the outside air. The men appear otherwise unharmed but the two ballista and the 16 siege crossbows all appear damaged and inoperable.

After Corum dismisses you the room begins to empty out however First Deputy Holts is still at the front of the room speaking with some of the other deputies.
You can discuss here what if anything you did during the two weeks prior to the meeting and what you do the day after. You have three full days to report but it is about three days to Phiam over land.

Constables of Icefia / Life and Crimes in the City
« on: August 24, 2011, 10:26:41 PM »
Within weeks of the legions moving west all of the cities saw an increase in crime. Unaccompanied women reported being strong armed, dock workers beat up those that dared to unload a ship that would not negotiate with the unions and burglaries simply exploded. The common people blame immigrants and ship jumpers for most of the problems, and in truth many of those caught are foreigners or barbarians who have come for work.
Still, the common people of the Kingdom seem more on edge, fights have become more common and more violent. In the summer of 784 the murder rate reached the highest in memory. Many feel that the oppressive heat, also the worst in memory, even Ice Gnome memory, contributes. The Tamin River overflowed its banks twice as the heat melted the ice in the north to levels not seen in centuries, perhaps ever.
Constables are hard pressed to keep up. Many volunteered and were given leave to join the fight, though the war is not as popular this time around. Many who would not otherwise be accepted as constables for one reason or another are given their badge but the ranks are still thin. Most work an extra shift or part of a shift every day leading to frayed nerves and complaints from the subjects. The leadership is reluctant to discipline too harshly as they cannot spare the men.

Constables of Icefia / The War
« on: August 22, 2011, 10:56:55 PM »
In early 784, no one is exactly sure of the date, the long expected war between the Kingdom of Icefia and the nation of the Scaled Elves began anew. No one truly considers it a new war; the parties are the same as the Wyvern Crusade, not ten years in the past. Even the leaders of both nations remain unchanged.
The Kingdom had been speaking of the Scaled Elves as renegades for generations. Their nation had never been officially recognized by the Kingdom and the border was only clear where a river or glacier made determination easy. This rejoined conflict would have seemed a desire of only the Kingdom except for the events of 783.
In late 783, from the far northwest, that poorly defined no mans land, a place in truth neither side had ever seemed to care about, word came of a rich seam of ore and precious stones. A call for volunteers to defend the find and claim it for the kingdom was answered by hundreds of mercenaries and adventurers. By the end of 783 a fortress encampment of more than 5000 was established in the mountains. Even in the unbearably cold Icefian winter stones began to make their way out on sledges. Barbarians and Chosen attacked the caravans but as the winter subsided the defenders found themselves coming into contact with Scaled Elven patrols on a regular basis. They appealed to the Crown for aid and it was given.
The Army began to increase its presence in the west, adding elite units from the Guardian and Diamond Brigades to the border regions. It was only a matter of time before an incident. In Smofena an entire Eynamaga failed to report as scheduled. Two days later all fifty men and women were found dead near their positions. Most shot with arrows, some cut down by swords and a few torn apart by wyvern jaws. The following day the High King summoned the lesser monarchs and declared war against the Scaled Elves.
