Sort of a monologue to me, but I guess the order passing guy is there too.

[Ghazkull]

Kestrel i would really appreciate if you could bold the actions like the others do makes it far easier for me when making turns...

[Kestrel_6]

Sorry.
Farming, Churches, Medicine.

Bring the Frigate to the Researchers as a sign of House Power Parade it in the Capital under guard of one of the regiments, Declare it a gift from heaven and a sign of divine providence and might.
Use the other Regiment to salvage around the same area where the Frigate was found
See if we can outfit my two regiments with better equipment.
Now, This..Is wonderful. A sign of the old ages would surely bring any minor lords who were on the brink to our side or make them think twice about striking out against the house. Our own little deterant, even though it wasnt capable of achieving flight still it worked against the more superstitious. He handed over to the more giddy researchers, maybe they would be able to see it to some more use.

[Ghazkull]

House Nova

Aeverys

Using your newfound followers you inspire them to establish places of prayer and praise to the Pancreator. In mere months every village and every town possesses it's own shrine dedicated to him. You even establish a small monastery composited of one of your Fanatic Regiments. Here they teach their brothers in the learnings of the Church and send the ready monks out into the world to bring the word of the Pancreator to the people. From the depths of Delta you even manage to conjure up another Com-System and set it up in the Monastery. Soon contact with the Church is established and a week later a sleek gleaming ship appears in your air space it seems to be bearing the sign of the Inquisition. It soon turns out that the ship carries real shepherds of the belief, learned in the Holy Texts and eager to teach the young acolytes. An accompanying Church representative draws you aside to a private talk.

You have done a great thing Lady Aeverys and the Church knows that piousness is important but won't help you against the Xenos, therefore they have brought you a token of their trust.

The next time you turn around you see a whole regiment of Church-sanctioned Crusaders...along with months worth of food rations.
----------------------------
You soon establish Contact with the First Xenos, it was actually relatively easy as a delegation arrived directly at your doorstep so to say. They however refuse to join these foreign beliefs you want to spread in their homeland, all in all the meeting goes horribly wrong. Relations with some of the Xenos have worsened...
---------------------------
You bring these new power armoured Crusaders directly to use together with your two remaining Fanatic Hordes. It seems the Xenos live in underground burrows, in large Clans and even the most outlying consist of several hundred specimens. Destroying teh first few burrows is a huge success the primitive beasts barely having discovered agriculture are quickly broken by the Crusaders and then mopped up by your Fanatics. Their Burrows are collapsed, the children and old nailed to crosses and the men and women brought off as slaves.

Ssalosin lost 10% support




Ssalosin

Emptying the already dangerously depleted coffers you support the population with new farming equipment, seeds, cattle and so on. Continuing your modernization efforts you put money into the Sanitation and Medicine and establish wells and basic sewer systems. However although you do your best, your efforts are not as glamorous or as glorious as those of your sister and sink back behind her Crusade,establishment of Churches and similiar things. If the people would have been more educated, enlightened as you are they would have seen that building shrines is not exactly the best thing to do when you are starving. Although the people say that the easening of their food problems is due to their piousness, you know that this was your accomplishement...


Ssalosin support gain 5%
Averys support loss 5%
new Infrastructure: Basic Sanitation ( increases Healthcare)
new Infarstructure: Basic Farming Economy ( doubles food output)
lost 4 Credits


Rigos
You wisely decide to reoutfit your troops before parading the massive ship. Scouring the armories you brign together some decent Imperial Weaponry and some more Kevlar Vests. After that you parade hte massive ship through the streets...or at least that was your intention...you soonr ealize that that ship wont fit in any street. Instead you bring it to the Entrances of Delta 17 for the people to see. You hold a speech in front of an fascinated crowd and the people marvel at this gift of the Pancreator. Finally you hand it over to the Researchers, which immediately begint to take the ship apart for a dozen different things...


Lost Frigate Wreck
Rigos gained 10% support
Aeverys lost 5% support
Ssalosin lost 5% support
lost 2 Technological Artifacts

Research
The Laboratories report success, in cooperation with some of the Power-Armor commanders they did not only manage to establish a proper training plan for your troops but also a standardization of munitions and rifles. Along with this they provide you with a new kind of weapon: a repeater...
____________

The Frigate has been partly taken apart and your best IT specialists are working on the Nav-Data but up to now there are no discoveries. They also complain of a lack of input on what to do with that ship...

External Affairs

Xenos Relations are degrading rapidly and rumours that King Renard is supporting the Xenos is spreading like a wildfire. But on the other hand rebellion seems to have broken out in his lands and some of our spies report that he had to flee the capital and that more than half of his lords have abandoned him...

Scour the Frigate for its Medical bays for anything useful regarding the Plague and hand it off to the researchers
2. Use one of my Regiments to Assist the Farmers
3. Use my Other Regiment to assist in Peacekeeeping Operations.

[Dwarmin]

Aeverys had stood on the field once again. These...creatures. How haughty they had been, denying her token attempt at Diplomacy. Fools.

Now she victorious-too easy, this victory, far too easy-and she was enjoying the bonfires, the screams and the steady pounding of nails into wood, or the feeble cries of the slaves. She supposed it would only get harder after this-the Pancreator taught you should never underestimate the power of the Heretical, for to do so is forget you are human, and but humble mortal flesh . And therein, one loses the Pancreators favor.

The most difficult part was actually going down in their tunnels and digging the vermin out. They were too cowardly to engage in an open battle yet. No matter-the Church Crusaders seemed to be enjoying themselves. She had heard some of them privately calling this assignment a "time of ease and restraint"-like it was a vacation to them, almost.

Compared to fighting the Symbiots, Vau or Warlock Covens she could imagine so.

---
Later that week, she began the ordering of the plague cleanup-she did so not without a heavy heart. Many innocents would die...she decided that burning of the dead would have to be done with respect. Pancreator Clergy would attend, casting blessings to those poor souls whose bodies had been possessed by disease. The only way to free them was with fire.

As for her, she would gladly keep up her treatments-Nobles could afford such things-that would keep her safe. How amazing, such a tiny pill could prolong life...and yet, she had heard some of the hard liners argue that even medicine was against the Pancreators will. For, if the work of plague was from Demons, how could a cure not employ the same means? Either way, the Pancreator had not meant for Aeverys to die now. So she, took her medicine-and prayed for her soul.

----

Looking at Xeno slaves that seemed-for now-to be content toiling at the farms had made Aeverys uneasy. No doubt, they were useful-but what if the slaves ever outnumbered the masters? She had read in old books of Urth about many slave uprisings-Spartakus came to mind.

She needed to keep an eye on them-learn their ways. The best way, she thought, had been to purchase a slave herself.

The Xeno was a female-and had, with some encouragement, embraced the Pancreator-or claimed to. Aeverys derived some joy from forcing the creature, which had been some sort of noble or high ranking member of it's society before-to serve her meals, clean her home and draw her nightly baths. There was still the spark of rebellion in her eyes. But...everything, and everyone could be broken. Aeverys knew that better than anyone.

Had the Church not broken her? Yea, verily-and remade her. In the Pancreators Image.

Actions:

1. Begin Seizing of Xeno Land for new settlers-in particular, untapped deposts of minerals, energy and biological resources.

2. Establish curfew and quarantine with my new police forces-for their own safety of course. Tell the peasants invisible possser Demons are spreading plague, and to keep safely indoors until they are slain...by which we mean, burn the infected corpses. Help with the distribution of any cures that might be found-attributing them to Pancreator, naturally.

3. The churches begin food deliviries from Averys personal stocks to the people. With the Pancreators blessing. Make sure the food is tightly guarded against looters-shoot to kill.

4. Establish a Xeno-Slave Controlling Agency to keep them controlled-with the only rule being they produce a certain food qouta. Essentially, make it into a free market enterprise. Let Human Nature do the rest.

((OOC: Also, this is turning out to be the most evil character I've ever created ))

[Ghazkull]

OOC: sorry no Symbiots,Vau or Warlock Covens...although i have some things for you in store
generally this is not the Scenario of Emperor of the Fading Suns so you can go wild with technology and pretty much everything else i did not describe

Concerning your private food stocks, they were a one time boon by the Church, they were used up last turn...

But really nice Character, now we only need someone more Technologically minded and someone economically minded...for all that Noble Backstabbing Needs of me...XD

[Taricus]

Welp, time for me to make an appearance as Aeverys (Dastardly and backstabbing) Right hand

Name: Tavius Seiviot
Appereance: A 190cm tall male with dark hair, light skin and blue-green eyes.
Bio: An expert saboteur and marksman in service to Aeverys, though clearly an idealogical distaff counter part to her, He is quite loyal to her and is usually called Aeverys hawk. He is quite fond of being a snarker, though where this came from may be best left forgotten...
Religious Alignment: Either Agnostic or a heathen, it's not clear which.


This okay Ghazkull and Dwarmin?

[Dwarmin]

Sounds good. We'll probably end up assassinating each other at the same time. Or more likely, battling for dominance in our no doubt stormy relationship.

[Taricus]

I'm not a noble though Rather just Aeverys' tool

[Ghazkull]

OOC: sounds fine to me but do not forget that a hero gets the attention of the people and even you might end up as a New Noble after a rebellion ;P

[Taricus]

Hehe, true. But that's unlikely to happen Reserving this post for my introductry post.

A familiar figure stalk behind Aeverys as she was walking down a hallway within the capitol, shadowing her before striding up beside her. "Lady Aeverys?"

[adwarf]

Begin gathering what Xeno support I can, and declare my rise against the Church. Any who wish to leave my rule may do, so and any who wish to join it may do, so. Of those who still remain loyal to me begin recruiting soldiers into the army (Not Forcefully, but by Will)

[Dwarmin]

Aeverys heard the familiar shadow speak.

She answered in a voice, that was quite unlike her normal emotionless tone-warm and inviting, with a hint of true humor-anyone who cared to make comparions might have said it reminded them of what she was like before her family exiled her to the Convent.

"Tavius, you can step into the light, you Godless Heathen. I spotted you five minutes ago. Are you that out of practice?"

It was more like 30 seconds. Give or take.

Aeverys had not been sure he was there-that shadow? That slow steady intake of breath? That scent, very distinct-Tavius had a secret sweet tooth, or did, and it came out whenever he was a bit nervous. Maybe...maybe not.

When he emerged, there was no doubt.

Then again, Aeverys mind warned her it could be a trick. Maybe her enemies knew that only man she might hesitate to kill was her old friend and companion Tavius Seiviot.

Aeverys readied her loaded flintlock under her coat-just in case.

She didn't take her hand off the gun until she was sure he saw that she was carrying. A meaningless gesture, really-if he had hostile intent, he would probably have struck as she bathed, naked and unarmed. Tavius had disposed of similiar enemies the same way.

"Tavius. I guess mercenary work didn't pan out, then? I was sure after out last...interlude...you had left my employ for good.

Then again, you always come back to me, don't you?"

She smiled, finally releaxing her group on the pistol.
