Fear and Loathing in Kitsap: Requiem for a Harpy (2/7/2009)

Mar 07, 2009 14:20

“REQUIEM, n. A mass for the dead which the minor poets assure us the winds sing o'er the graves of their favorites. Sometimes, by way of providing a varied entertainment, they sing a dirge.”

 Ambrose Bierce, the Devil's Dictionary

Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

It is with mixed feelings that I must announce that this shall be my last harpy report.  Why, you ask?  Read further Gentle Reader.

Once again, we met at the historic Tunnels Under Bremerton hosted by Gangrel Overlord, Nathanial Green.  The gathering was sparsely attended, but that did not stop various intrusions into the domain of Kitsap.

Some arcane force had burned down two churches, branding them with a fiery eye.

A strange blood plague had surfaced infecting the blood supply by a coterie of ruffian fight fanatics.

Lord Belson’s duties have prevented him from attending to the day to day affairs of the domain and so he elected to gracefully step down.  With a nod from the Overlord Nathanial Green, I have seized praxis of the domain of Kitsap.

Overlord Nathanial Green wished me to make the following announcements.

Imperator John Nelson has served this grand Imperium for several years with distinction and honor.  At the NOIR Ball in two weeks time, Imperator John Nelson shall be stepping down to pursue personal matters.  Residents of the Imperium should have no fear of chaos as Overlord Nathanial Green shall be taking the reigns.

The territory of Tacoma is now an open protectorate of Overlord Green.  Kindred settlers will soon be invited to move into this wild city to tame it.  If the new residents of Tacoma manage to secure the domain and hold viable gatherings, they will be allowed to petition Overlord Green for a Prince.  Please note that this is a wild and lawless city with unknown dangers.  Kindred that seek their fortune here must be cunning and bold.  Warning: It is not advised to start issuing petitions UNTIL the city has been settled and proven viable.

Overlord Green’s Imperial Court shall be:
  • Imperial Seneschal: Lord Belson
  • Imperial Hound: Acrimony

The position of Imperial Harpy is current open, pending Overlord Green’s review of the harpy’s of his cities.  As the outgoing Imperial Harpy, I recommend that those that are interested produce regular reports and make them shine.

Overlord Green also wished to note that he *valued* my service to the Imperium and that others should as well.

My final act as harpy is to make a couple of announcements about the future of Kitsap.

I have issued the call of the seasons.  On March 6th, 2009, I shall be accepting petitions from those seeking Court Positions.  In addition, I shall be opening a Kitsap Pricus Council to assist in the governing of the domain.  It is expected that clans shall present their candidate for vetting at that time.  Please note that I shall look harshly upon those that accept a position and then fail to complete their duties.  More information to follow.

On March 20th, 2009, I shall be hosting an Accounting of the domain of Kitsap.  Kindred that seek to claim domain within my protection should present their case at this time.  Kindred that actively contribute to the domain shall be given precedence.

Once announcements were made, the domain was organized into swift action.

B, Levity, and Zeal quickly investigated the matter of the burned down church

Gabriel della Morretti Sangiovanni and Abigail della Morretti Sangiovanni were tasked with the inquiry into the strange blood plague.

Their journey eventually merged together as they handled a third affair.

Newly arrived Sir Tristan of the Lance made quite the impression.  He quickly offered his services to the domain.

Rising Stars:

Zeal has proven yet again that he is not just another pretty face and can think when required.  He has been quietly assisting the domain for quite a while.  As I recall, it was through his occult research efforts that Uin Nguyen was able to be defeated.  He should be *Recognized* for his efforts.

Feared:

Acrimony proved that he was quite the skilled mediator.

Loathed:

Alas, I am disappointed that I have none to mock on my last outing.

I hope that my words that have entertained and educated the masses and made those that I scorn weep bitter tears.

Sorrow
Prince of Kitsap
The Lord of Laughter
The New Flesh

OOC:

Sorrow spends 1 to bump Zeal to *Recognized*.

On orders from the Gangrel Overlord, Sorrow is spends 1 to bump himself to *Valued.*

Carthian Status: 3, Mekhet Status: 3, City Status: 3
