Neil Tathers is making a trip to Derby, and this will chronicle his events along the way there.
He plans on making a bunch of stops along the way.
Enjoy the hilarity that will ensue!

Will this include my killing of you? And how odd is it that we are both venturing to the same place, that is before I leave to go to the Tarak's Spit.

You attack the tiger and miss. Pausing a moment to reflect on this, tackling the tiger with your bare hands might be considered crazy!

That was Durham. This is Derby. They are on the other side of the island.
But along the way the first of many animals have fallen to my blade. THE DREADED LARGE STAG. BWHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!

Well I am on my way to collect a payment on a heavy sword I sold and to go searching for more before heading off to hunt alligators at Tarak's Spit.

Derby should tax those who come looking for swords... and if they don't pay, take it in blood!  |

We'll never know... as Wiksik doesn't have a Swamp within a few paces that seems to have 99% of the heavy sword market share. I'd guess that someone controlling that market share would have the opportunity to control the island... if they were that way inclined.  |

Derby should tax those who come looking for swords... and if they don't pay, take it in blood! Take it in blood? Really? That's the most ing stupidest idea I've heard in a long time. Shartak is anarchy. Everything belongs to the finder and you can go wherever you want. Now there is noone who will say " Oh yes Anthor. These swamp tiles and these swords I find really have your name on it. I think I owe you something." Now if you go out and kill someone, because he didn't pay you money he doesn't owe you, I don't think he'll think too positive of your actions. So he'll kill you back and then his royalty gets his revenge and you successfully started a feud. Long story short, you are going to end up destroying Derby because you have to run around and kill 1) people who don't pay and 2) all the griefers you created. I sure hope your enemies (the ones you already have and the ones a strategist like you is going to make) are a little bit smarter and only rip you and your followers apart and not the innocent and nice population of Wiksik. |

Wow! Seriously? It was a joke. No one can control anything in Shartak. Geez. Lighten up, it's supposed to be an in character RP thread. If you want to call my idea stupid and talk about griefing, at least do it in the OOC area.

Awesome so that means you don't technically control Wiksik, and the royal court doesn't really control Raktam! I now dub myself Emperor of Raksik, the empire of Raktam and Wiksik controlled by you new gracious man eating king, Ruh'sil. |

It's not a terrible idea, for a tax. If the amount taxed is small enough, then people shouldn't mind paying it for the privilege of looking. If you make searching requisite upon joining a guild that owes you a certain amount of service complicit with membership, then you have your own reserve army. if you refuse, well, your misfits are dangerous enough to be a threat for any individual to deal with.
However I imagine it's a rather tedious business to actually enforce taxation, and it's always unpopular, so giving the responsibility for the proposed guild to one of your willing lieutenants would be the best thing.
