I, Sir Yrmshik Fiyem, wish to invite any willing citizens of Petra's allied nations to the Great Auction of Celia'sul.

This Auction will be held in one stone year, on Sun's Smile.

A missive will be sent out that same year on Snow's Maiden, with a list of items that will be Auctioned off.

To put something up for auction, please bird Sir Yrmshik Fiyem or find me in Celia'sul or Kaethul.

Entries can be registered until The Deep Cold, to make sure the missive can be made in time.

An entry fee will be included with this: One can add in as much as they want, albeit for the first item entered, a fee of 15 Mina is to be payed.

All earnings from items will go to those who put them up, unless specified by the person themselves.

Darklings - A dark halfling adventure

Darklings, a dark adventure in the land of the wee. On the edge of the forest of Dúnwen, a cottage has suddenly been renovated, a light burning inside once more.

What could this mean? Who is inside, or what is?

A Call For Funds

[!] This missive is sent out to residents of: Aaun, Petra, Haense, Urguan and Dunwen

Friends, Allies and strangers. I am calling for a help for funding of the Viscounty of Celia'sul, a safe place for all in need of one.

I, Ser Yrmshik, am opening up my forge in Celia'sul for all in need of a weapon, jewel or any other sort of forged or handcrafted object, no item shall cost more than 60 Mina. Hopefully this will make those in need of a weapon choose our smithy, and help us earn the Mina we are in need of.

To order an item and contribute to our Viscounty, please send a bird to Yrmshik, or find me in Celia'sul, the castle south of Stran.

- Signed: Ser Yrmshik, High Smith of Celia'sul

Yrmshik sat at his shrine, defeated, his eyes taken by battle and craft, one hole covered with a metal eyepatch, the other burnt close, marks of metal spread over the wound.

He was a strong Orc, a master of his craft, yet without his eyes he had... nothing. His vision was the key to his life, battling, smithing, guarding even, nothing could be done without it. All he could see were flashes of his life, good days in the woods, enjoying the smell and look of melting iron in the forge, and the sparks of smithing. He had thought when he lost his eyes it wouldn't be bad, after all, he had done so many things in his life, he could just use muscle memory for them. Right? But after slamming and burning his hands in the forge and under his hammer a hundred times, walking into the wall more than properly being able to guide himself through the building, he was defeated. Finally it came to a point where he could handle the pain no more, he had lost his entire life to the blindness, and he had decided to go to Dungrimm, for his final effort.

Hours, days he spent pleading to Dungrimm and Yemekar for help, as he finally fell unconscious on the shrine, no tears being able to be found, yet the hopelessness being readable over the Orc's face, as he layed there, wrecked by his loss, and fallen from a lack of sleep.

I’ve not seen any special metals that weren’t from the vaults, nor have I ever owned anything to begin with, let it come through! The magnetus is starting to pour out of my nose by now.

         Phantom | Specter

Creator's RP Name:

Briefly explain the lore behind this construct or creature:

Phantoms in general are souls not accepted into the afterlife, they get stuck in the soulstream and sent back to the mortal plane.

All types of Phantoms are weak to Aurum, it being one of the few things capable of actively hurting them. It feels like a burning blade almost, being stabbed into them. If one makes a line of pure Aurum, a phantom won't be able to cross it, or on a higher tier will have to scream in pain in #s.

Revenants:
The revenant is the state every phantom starts at, it lingers in misery and confusion, not understanding or willing to cope with what they are. They have short fuses, becoming sad and angry quickly, as their mind isn't used to this. They usually aren't even sure who they used to be.
A revenant will react heavily to anything harming them, being very dramatic, somewhat like harming a kid.
Revenants are capable of becoming invisible, they can have a light grasp on objects, no more than 3 pounds and barely any effect.
Apart from this, they're able to curse mortals with mental disorders, this takes time growing closer to the victim, and can be purged by holy magic in time.

Poltergeists:
A poltergeist is a spirit that has denied and refused the nature of how they died, they've been taken over by the pain and trauma. A poltergeist is the most unstable type of phantom, their mind taken by the disorder that started in their first part of unlife. They are horrors unrecognizable as the person they once were, their mind wretched and reacting to everything with instinct and emotion. They tend to go to violence quite fast, some of them being actually just evil, but not all. They will not run away from pain as easy as other phantoms, instead, pain will make them more angry, causing violent and aggressive responses. Yet, enough pain is still a way to make them flee.
Poltergeists are capable of becoming more 'present' in the mortal realm, allowing them to punch someone, but also get hit themselves. Like all phantoms, they can turn invisible. Any poltergeist can seem like a wild animal, or make themselves a more scary version of themselves.
They're capable of controlling objects with ectoplasm, controlling corpses, and bind a location of haunting, which makes them stronger. All poltergeists have an aura of negative feelings around themselves, which mortals can feel.

Specters:
The specter is the more stable variant of the Phantom, having accepted their fate, yet still experiencing sorrow. They tend to be more friendly and caring, or playfully bad. They do not like fighting, avoiding it, and tend to be a shadow of their old selves. Specters don't stay in the mortal world for too long, as they tend to travel to the soulstream soon after becoming a white spirit. Some stay around if they feel they are still required, or if they don't want to go.
Specters handle pain like mortals, not instantly being violent or overreactive. How long they can handle pain depends on how desperate they wish to stay in the threat. They are just as tempted to stay with danger on their lives as a person would be.
They're capable of manifesting their being more, to be able to harm and get harmed more easily, they can become invisible and change their form to that of an animal, often a friendly species. Like poltergeists they can lightly control objects with ectoplasm and create a sanctuary. Unlike poltergeists, they cannot possess corpses, instead, they possess objects, just like they don't give off negativity, but positive feelings.

Incorporeality:
Phantoms do not possess a body, instead they are composed of ectoplasm: a mix between mana and lifeforce, which causes them to be unable to interact with the mortal world, apart from some abilities. This also causes the mortal world to be unable to interact with them.

Ectoplasm:
Ectoplasm is the substance all phantoms and spectral creatures are made of, they usually look like goo, gas or flame. The ectoplasm allows them to change shape to a certain limit (Spectral animals) and going invisible. Ectoplasm is unable to interact with mundane items, as almost all things will just pass through them as if they were air. Due to the ectoplasm they simply "exist" not needing what mortals require, yet they can still get hurt, while the response is different for every phantom.

Weakness/Art interaction:
Aurum hurts phantoms heavily, feeling like a strong burn on their being.
Holy magic is strongly harmful to phantoms, being capable of fastly "killing" them, forcing them back into reformation, as well as curing curses made my phantoms.
Shamans are capable of "eating" phantoms, or contacting them, sending them to other planes with shamanic rituals.
Voidal magic is a power drained from a different realm, and can therefor hurt phantoms, pausing or disabling abilities.
Mystics can bind phantoms to objects, summon phantoms and control them, being capable of turning a phantom into a forced servant, by taking control over their existance.

If this construct or creature has some form of aesthetic choice, can you describe how they look? 

A man in a leather outfit, seethrough and not touchable, his body white-grayish and only the general lines visible.

Ban Selection

In-Game Ban

Ban Reason

Gore, Cannibalism (Screenshots result in pictures of minecrafts main loading screen)

What circumstances led to this ban?

I was part of a necromantic and bloodmagic community, as Nimrod/Vamir I was known as the "hunter" of the settlement: I used to hunt lone people to give their bodies to necromancers. One of these times I decided to make some tools out of the bones, now even though I had permission from the involved parties, I turned out to have crossed the line LOTC has for gore and such. Now I have been banned for this, I know where the line is drawn, and I know I should stick with how far magic lore goes, for that is usually the line, thus I know when to stop the gore and make sure it doesn't go further.

Are there aspects of the ban you agree and/or disagree with?

I agree with the fact I went too far on the gore, looking back at it, this was too detailed and I took too much out of the rp in general, I know I need to turn this down.

What motivates you to return to LOTC?

I've spent a long time, at least 3/4th of a year on LOTC, and I have many friends within the community. I've made LOTC part of my daily life out of work and school, and I'd hate to give this up. Another reason is because the lore and coding is really good, I've tried a lot of servers but LOTC was the first one to truly stand out with detailed lore and fantastic command- and chat implements in the game itself.

Yrmshik looks over the notice with a smile "Latz hab had dat coming, ztupid klomp-avoiding hoboz"

Within the duchy of Stran, a man sits down, his body covered in leather clothing made of elven skin, covered in blood stains. Taking off his bone mask he takes a final look at the house of Volkov “Farewell, my family” he speaks, before returning to the lake he spent so many dark nights at. He draws a dagger from his cloak, covering it in salt, stepping into the lake. With the dagger in his hands, he takes a last sigh, and jabs it in his heart, his blood cooking from the salt, before silence fills the night once more.

Alastar smiles from his desk “Looks like something to introduce the council to”

As an ex-assassin who's guild had to go spy, I wish you best of luck! assassin jobs are hard to find and harder to complete (people dont tend to like death too much)

Council of Altor

Assassins reformed to spies

The Council of Altor is a guild of spies, working for anyone that pays, they pick up lone kids to give them a purpose, help people out of the gutter, and work for those that have the money to pay off their prices

Our members are professionals in gathering intel and information, both those that are legal and hard to find, and those that are less legal. We can get you names, locations, you call it!

Interested in hiring the council? drop a note in one of our commission boxes at information signs to give a job, including payment.

Current locations of boxes: Urguan, Hefrumm, Vaska

Alastar is going to shop here the moment he can

As me old man used to say, “Those with the biggest opinion, are usually those with the least knowledge” so if you’re going to be stumbling over a thing used IRP that most people haven’t heard in use IRL, then either get every single color reference banned or go scream into a pillow.
