Confederacy News Turn 7

State of the Confederacy

The Glorious People's Republic are the most healthy, wealthy and happy.

Confederacy Pirates

A joint strike team from the Glorious People's Republic and the Earthborne has wreaked havoc on Sky Pirates operations in the area, sending smoking into the Mists those they did not capture. The fearsome attacks of the People's Republic soldiers, the blasts of El Presidente's Storm weapon, and the roaring bleats of the Bearsheep soon subdued the Sky Pirates, and the awesome power of the CSF Humanity's main cannon saw to the rest.

Sky Bastions and Milita

The Crystal Collective seem to have made amends with Earthborne at long last, now seeming to be living in each other's pockets. This season saw a large number of Karbaldi visit the confederacy for milita training and unilateral building project to improve the sky fortress defense grid.

The Wedding

The CSF Humanity graced the wedding of Pope Pineapple and Ella May Dixie, providing a powerful backdrop to what is reported as a memorable occasion.

An unexpected twist in the proceedings occurred when Matthias Dixie made a pass at the newlywed phytarin, much to his own leafy wife's displeasure.

The Inventions of Burgholt

Bergholt Stuttley, who can be attributed as the inventor behind the destruction of the fallen spire, has continued his handywork with a number of advanced techno gizmos. In particular, he seems to be developing a selection of spider shaped death droids.

Inventions aside, all eyes are on Stuttley due to the death of Harkon. With the leader of the knights of the storm dead, responsibility could fall to Bergholt as the remaining clan representative.

Looting the Body

During the preparations for the duel, one of Burgholt's storm cannons was stolen by an unknown party! This is an important confederate artifact and the fallen hosts, supposedly assuring the neutrality of the duel, should be held accountable for it! Equally, there is some question of rights to the corpse and possesions of Harkon Stormwarden that are still to be resolved.

Poisionings

The CSF Humanity has come under fire from unexpected quarters in the form of a Coporeal Spirit calling itslef 'Netrici'. Since the creature's arrival in confederate space, it has made its way directly towards the sky fortress, assaulting the walls with many venomous insects and spiders that seemed to heed its call.

Many of the guards were badly envenomed by the attack, but managed to drive the creature off, badly injuring it in the process. The current wherabouts of the spirit is unclear, though there are rumors of it terrorizing border clans.

Dialectic Shmialectic

There is growing resentment against the Republic due to their critisisms of the methods of appointing leaders in other Clans. In particual King Lemur has come under fire as a leader who didn't gain his power through the people. The Earthborne are putting pressure on the GPR to keep thier sponsered clans under control, as it is a core belief of the Confederacy that each clans can follow whichever traitions they see fit.

Preaching

Former Union High Priestess Arabella Crimson has been coming around to clans preaching a load of rubbish about Justinian and the Founders of the Union. People have taken to shutting their doors and hiding behind the sofa when they see her coming. Do not under any circumstances encourage conversation - the woman goes on rants about the glory of Justinian and hands out useless pamphlets which do not burn well.

On the other hand, her associate Junior Priestess Anja Sedlak has largely ignored the preaching and has been a good friend to all Confederates she has met, giving food aid and such like to the needy clans and talking over problems with many. Much internal strife has been discouraged through her hard work. It is suggested that Clan Sedlak would be useful to the Confederates and that Anja might wish to find a new home away from the Union and the influence of her raving superior.

Rumours

  • Oleg Slavo of the Guild has been travelling about the Confederacy, trying to ascertain how well-off we are.
  • The People's Cultural Attache is 90% muscle, 10% fanatical devotion to El Presidente.
