Reply-To: , dq@dq.sf.org.nz Well, ... Sir Gerald de Claary Graal, aka Glass, fits these criteria. His birthright is not quite up there being the 2nd son of Impoverished Gentlefolk. He is however a landed knight, owing alliegance to the Lady (Viscomtess?) Sabrina (formerly to Viscount Blitzkreig). His whereabouts are currently uncertain but he has been know to "pop" into the Guild facilities irregularly and is rumoured to currently be seeking Sabrina to renew his vows of fealty. Messages left at the Guild, with the Viscomtess's staff, or at the Aladarian court (such as it is) will eventually reach him. TTFN ---- Struan L.

EJ Finalisation (request from Keith) It's been over a year now since the Guild Fire, and there seems to be some unresolved questions. Do these need to be addressed formally or can we just decide on a resolution and let it pass into Guild history A) The fate of the two missing Councellors: Herkum and Maia? B) Will the Healing Potion Cauldron become available again? Personally I'm not sure that we need it at the moment. C) Is the Guild still paying out for treasure in Guild Scrip, or has the Treasury been sufficiently replenished to allow Guild Scrip to be cashed in? D) How has the Guild Charter been affected? 4) Rules General Business Discussion on Witchsight vs Invisiblity proposal (from Jacqui) Discussion whether the Maximum ranks of C class weapons should be reviewed (Rosemary) Publication date for next rule book (Andrew) Languages (Michael Parkinson) ****** WORK IN PROGRESS As of June 1999 GENERAL Cold Iron Martin Dickson To be resubmitted Players Handbook Rosemary Mansfield In progress (workshop next) SKILLS Herbalist Jim Arona Someone to pick this up Languages Jon McSpadden/Mike Parkinson In Progress Warrior/Fighting skills Jono Bean Playtested, 2nd Version being written COLLEGES Binder Stephen Martin In Probation Fire Paul Schmidt In Progress Rune Jon McSpadden In Progress Mind clarification Jacqui In Progress Namer Martin Draft for submission MAGIC Weapon spells Stephen Martin In Progress Wiccan Special Alchemy Michael Woodhams To be resubmitted Light/Dark spells Jacqui In progress Install Flight Scott/Andrew Waiting for proposal Witchsight v Invisibility Jacqui Waiting for proposal Rosemary This message contains confidential information intended only for the individual or entity named above.
