~Legend Icejester becomes Immortal Valtera's anointed as she proclaimed him early this week to be her first Disciple of Magic. Many citizens were about for her arrival and multiple debates and heated shouts erupted between the Immortal and citizens (and she called your Editor a shrew and congratulated Icejester for snagging the soul of a Paladin of Indus for her ).

~The Town Guards report a large influx in the amount of femfendar shipments into Moorgate. Known for its ability to make one "fly," its use as a mood altering paste is well documented. Increases in the amount of crazed citizens has increased dramatically in recent weeks.

~In a related topic......Poetic Ranger Mazrim reports he was approached and commanded by a "large headed cat" to create and build a new Guild in our land.
In an excerpt from the account, Mazrim questions the cat's sanity "at this point i was getting a lil piturbed..start a new guild? was this cat with a head to large for its body insane?"
The account progresses into a battle in which the cat pins Mazrim to the floor and the following dialogue takes place:
<< cat:" first u must build the guild hall..it wil be expensive..but u must.."
me:"okokok...ill build the bloody thing..but i doubt anyone will join it..they all thik im a fool"
cat:" if u build it..they wil come.."
the cat got off me..now back to its hideously malportioned figure..leaped back onto the chair and smiled.>> meeooow

~Penilord announced a "Special Lover's Mortal Combat Tournament" this week to be held this evening (after the paper is put to rest for the week). There are no fees to enter, and no prizes to win but plenty of might and love to be demonstrated in this first-ever tournament of its kind. Sounds like fun for the brave, details can be found here: Penilord's Special Lover's Mortal Combat Tournament!

~Fighter's GM Fjorgynn was returned to his former Half-Giant Berserker form by Immortal Leoni by use of a blood putty.

~Winners of the Interguild Tournament held by Baroness Eris were: Monk Baron/Legend Dandy, Fighter Legend DrPepper, Mage Legend Vistilantus and Thief Legend Merlordd

~Pigeons were dispatched by the Architects of Moorgate with blueprints to the winners of Cosrin's Olympiad this week. The seven-room houses that have been under construction on Laurel Lane and Winner's Way in East Moorgate are currently being decorated by their owners and keys to be distributed as the owners complete their interiors. (Grolsch won a house but clearly will
not need a key).

~A collection of life-like dolls appeared in Moorgate for avid doll collectors, were quickly snapped up and disappeared. The dolls were weapons or hand armour and included Action Shaxul with Kung Fu grip, Hirobi with Rocket fists, Leoni with Vitriolic Spit, Giselle with Thwap o'Death, Sage Elanthius with Staff and Trollhater with Death Bow.

~The Gate House - Invasion News~

News of Invasions that plague the peaceful streets and causeways of Moorgate shared here. Deaths, Survivors, Creatures, Tactics submitted by YOU, the reader.

~Day 22 of Winter Cloak. Warlocks Vistilantus and Icejester read and chanted spells from ancient Scrolls of the Dead resulting in the mass summoning of Undead on and around Moorgate. Liches, Ghouls, Vampires, Ghastly Ghouls, Skeletons, Skeletal Warriors, Vampire Lords and finally DEATH itself poured onto the causeways, the gates of the city, the Market, the Docklands and the surrounding forests.
The invasion was lengthy and involved 42 citizens and resulted in numerous deaths, including Heroes Trollhater and Giselle. Senrania granted life again to all of the embattled citizens unlike the liches they were fighting. The sheer scale of the invasion and the inordinate amount of beasts amidst the constant warlock chanting was a horror to all involved.
