Shadow Court War Status

[muldran]

Here's a collected place for information on all of the people and guilds we interact with. It's easier to keep this up to date - and let people know any encounters that go especially well (or not!) with others...

[muldran]

The Court is on good terms with the following people, and providing we don't annoy them, we can generally guarantee we'll have their support...

The Dark Cloaks (DCL)
Little has been heard from the Cloaks and their mysterious Master - but it's just as well the Court are an a steady footing with them; assisting them with tasks in the past.

The Duchy of Trinsic (DoT)
The relationship may be a little strained, what with their adherence to the smallest law, but on the whole the Court and Trinsic consider themselves allies.

Knights and Mages of Kha (KMK)
From the shores of the island, they waved goodbye. Nothing has been seen of these former allies for quite some time...

Knights Hospitaller (KH)
Lead by the compassionate Lady Tabbitha, the Knights Hospitaller have long been allies of the Shadow Court.

Knights of Virtue (K0V)
The Guardians of Tel'Mar have worked with the Court in the past; and the Shadow Court has maintained its friendship with members old and new.

People of Rhovanion (PoR)
The Rhovanion Treaty (signed by Muldran Skully and Lord Bohemond) gave the Court permission to establish itself within the snowy valley of Northern Crags of Malas. As the Court expands, the Rhovanionites are being relied on to manage affairs in Malas.

Serfs (Srf)
Ever so humble, and never so offensive; the Serfs are an example of the 'normal people' that the Court see as so vital to the existence of the world. Should someone ever need help, hidden away - it could probably be found within the Serf's hands.

The Spectral Court (S-C)
The vampire clans of the Spectral Court and the balanced outlook of the Shadow Court would seem to be at opposites; but the Moon brothers and Muldran had long kept the peace between themselves after the affair with the Outcasts of Eldamar. But now Angelus and Ra'Karn have stepped further away from the land - will those who ally themselves to the Spectral Court still be friends of the Shadow Court?

Umbra (Umb)
Though some dismiss Umbra because of it's association with dark magic, the Shadow Court value their counsel on the matters that it cannot influence. Umbra also has a University - a renowned centre of learning, fully supported by Muldran and the Court.

[muldran]

The Court has few enemies that go for the throat. It's the Court's aim to be friends to all - and to keep the balance wherever possible. But surely there's some out there who seek to turn the Court inside out?

Army of Darkness (AofD)
A cult that established itself as the Dark Lord came into being. They have even managed to claim a few of the Shadow Court, subverting them to the Dark Lord's will.

Havoc (Hvc)
Long time enemies of the Court, Havoc have managed to cause pain and heartache for the Shadow Court; causing strife between the members and even taking away one of their most loved number. Vygorn has been sighted in the lands once more, and surely bides his time.

[muldran]

We know many people - some of them view us with suspicion, but not hostility. Keep a wary eye and a civil tongue, and we may make firm friends. But should the pendulum swing the other way, we'll be ready...

The Army of Kaldor (A^K)
The green-clad lads and lasses of the Army of Kaldor seem to tolerate the Court.

The Baronship of Cove (BoC)
The Covians don't seem to have too much contact with the Court. Their adherence to certain notions about magic have caused a few worried glances, though.

The Crew of the Indomitable (crew)
Well, they're not *real* pirates. Are they?

Blades for Hire (MERC)
They fight for whoever pays them. And no one's paid them to go for the Court. Yet.

Borough of Yew (B^Y)
The outskirts of Yew are rarely travelled by the Court, although we have had contact with people there who hold no emnity for us - and likewise.

City of Britain (CBr)
The Court has had a cordial relationship with Britain for several years.

Community of Role-Players, Europa (CoRE)
Used as a 'utility stone' - so we're neutral to all members unless specifically noted here.

Ebon Hand (EH)
The Ebon Hand did not seem to despise the Court. Which is good.

Floh'len d'Lloth (F^L)
What to make of this group of Drow? Though many treat them with fear or loathing, the Shadow Court has kept itself out of any of the racial arguments.

Guardsmen Militia (Grd)
The Guards of Yew have had disagreements with the Shadow Court in the past. Their hatred of the 'unlike' and their distrust of magic could tip them to being enemies - but it's mainly due to the Court staying away from the Guardsmen's home that has stopped this problem from escalating.

The Knights Templar (KT)
An honourable order of Knights; the Court previously worked well with them, but events with the Black Boxes, and the current oath sworn against Taggart by Decardo point to future troubles.

L' Qu'ellar's Elamshin (Q*E)
A drow family; the Court have not had much to do with them in the past.

Order of Haven (-OH-)
Some seem to fear the Havenites; but they mostly keep to themselves. The Court has not had any conflict with this group.

Qu'ellar Von'Sah (V^S)
Once the most populous of the Drow families, their numbers seem to be in decline.

Quid pro Quo (Quid)
The Court has not seen any of this group for quite some time.

Renegades of Virtue (RoV)
The Court know only a few members of this Order, and have not fallen out with them.

The Royal Marksmen Regiment (-RM-)
The Marksmen and the Court only have a relationship in passing; there have been no disagreements or disruptions caused by either side.

The Scarlet Wenches (Wch)
Muldran's far to innocent to know what these lot are really up to. They remain as neutral for now, although this could quickly tip to enemy if Mul has to massage Tammy's feet again.

Sidhe Haven (SHE)
Mysterious.

Township of Valoria (VLR)
Valoria - a calm oasis, north of Vesper. Plenty of services and work is compelted around the ore-rich hills. The Valorians and the Court have a friendly relationship but have not worked closely on anything.

Trinsic Crime Alliance (TCA)
Well, these lot are hardly law abiding, but then again, they've not done anything to the Court yet.

The Village of Silverleaf (Slf)
In days gone by, the Court worked closeley with the former Keepers of the Elements. But as time rolled on, the two groups lost contact with each other.

Vesper Trading Company (VTC)
Owners of the Swaggers Inn. Only on the neutral list because we're not entirely sure if they're watering down the beer.

Ye Sosarian Morning Poste (Post)
Always beware those who regard the press as their friends.

18 March 2007

Everything's updated as it appears on the Guildstone. Any Court members can add information to this thread regarding our relationships with the current guilds. (For example - if we had an altecration with DoT, note it down here.)

Also - please suggest guilds that we should be warred to - and let me know as any guilds go bye-bye...

[Decardo Imier]

Small addition to Muldrans post . . .


We are now warred to a guild called the Outlaws...based out of the New Paws area ( But IC i dont think any of us know of them yet ).

Also there is a new alliance between The Dutchy of Trinsic, The Royal Marksmen, and The Elven. So this means once more we are warred to the The Elven through default.

[Kimmy]

oh....my....goddess.....

I don't see Vesper on that list

[Decardo Imier]

Ahhhh that must be because of the fact they are in alliance with KH and maybe VTC i believe.
I will correct that later if Mul hasnt already done so by the time i get home
