Alterion Canon: Updates and Alterations

[paradigm 2067]

Alterion Canon & Lore

---

^{Boardwide updates listed below.} 

Consider this your one-stop shop for updates to Alterion lore and canon. Links to, and summaries about, roleplay threads and events whose writers have successfully completed the canonization process will be posted as completed. I will try to keep a static list of all necessary Canon Board Info. 

I've also decided to include general updates as well, such as any large revisions to lore articles or to available sub-boards, etc and so on.

GM Note: Don't anticipate that I, as Alterion, will roleplay out minutiae. I do consider myself fairly involved and if I'm available will assist when asked, but  I can't keep up with every possible thread and response to all possible actions. That's where you come in Alterholics! I want to make your changes lasting ones, so if you do something the onus is on you to get up with me and let me know. Communication is key. I can't update the lore and make changes if I don't know about something. Also, just cus we chatted about it a few months back, don't assume I remembered it. If your stuff hasn't been canonized or posted, odds are I've forgotten. So feel free to remind and prod me as necessary.

Class A Quest Completed in Lands of Alterion.

• what is dead may never die - The Sky Fortress Gilgamesh a crowning glory of MaGNUS achievement went missing when the mega corporation was destroyed. Presumed destroyed alongside its creators the Gilgamesh reappeared under the control of a rogue security program. Upon orders from the High Mason, the Daius Syndicate dispatched the Dark Troupe—publicly known as The Dead Apostles to investigate the monolithic megafortress, there they found several security protocols in effect and demonic/mechanical entities running amok. After solving the various puzzles placed in their path by the mysterious Demon King, the Dead Apostles faced the rogue program and his demonchanical minions and ultimately prevailed.

With the rediscovery of the Sky Fortress, the Gilgamesh is now an active locale and free for anyone to use as a setting. The Sky Fortress Gilgamesh is now a tag and available for use in Alterion.

Class C Quest Completed in Izral 

• cash me ousside how ba dah -  A Poor Son Commander has crossed a powerful crime family in Izral. The criminals are offering a reward to any one who brings him in alive. Enter the tiefling bounty hunter Ember of Hope. She accepts the job of bringing the Commander in alive to the crime family he had crossed. .First she committed heavy recon, doing her best to map out the various aspects of the compound. During this scouting mission, she became the subject of various misadventures that left her reeling. Through it all she was still able to get the information and weaponry that she needed in order to make her move on the compound. As she assaulted the compound, she was able to use multiple explosives to daze the Poor Sons and dispatch them quickly. When trying to take captive of the commander Adam, she is taken by surprise and nearly killed. Fortunately she had a trick up her sleeve and disabled him so that she could turn him in for the bounty.

With the disappearance of the commander, the Poor Sons division in Izral takes a heavy hit. The scramble to replace the commander adds to the already chaotic nature of the Poor Sons attempt to keep peace in Izral. Expect Poor Sons in Izral to be more erratic and crabby than usual.

Class C Quest Completed in Izral 

• lick a brick and go ham on it - A criminal syndicate in Izral has learned of a new and powerful narcotic and is offering an award to the person(s) that can deliver it to them.  Re-enter Ember of Hope now tasked with retrieving a new drug before it can go into circulation. In order to complete this job she enlists three intrepid heroes to help her in this task. After an initial failure, the group is able to recover the new drug, though not without some wounds along the way. Afterwards, Embers crew is unsure whether or not to give her their shares of the drugs. Through some reassurances and promises of payment, Ember convinces them to hand over the new narcotics. She then goes to lie about the condition of said products to her employers, so that she can begin making them and selling them for her own ambitions.

With the Poor Sons still scrambling to maintain order, a new criminal syndicate is gaining steam.

Class C Quest completed in Arkadia Prime. 

neargh, fargh, wherever you argh. - At the behest of Daius Industries a merry band of misfits are dispatched to deal with a group of Blackfire Raiders turned Sky Pirates. To that end our intrepid heroes join the crew of the Tonberry Slice. While initially a bit rocky at the onset, the plan comes to fruition when the Raiders attack. Driving off the first wave, the crew has little time to celebrate when Souji Brightblade, a member of Black Raider High Command makes an appearance. After a very brief scuffle, Souji blows a whole in the ship and makes good his escape. While the pirates were not completely neutralized, the cargo remained safe and the Daius now know that Souji Brightblade leads the Black Raider sky pirates. 

 

The Blackfire Raiders continue to grow as a threat to Masonic rule and the Dead Apostles continue to make a name for themselves as a team of mercenaries. Souji Brightblade's bounty is increased from 500 to 700. Souji is now a Class V bounty.

home of the brave  <Full Summary Located in thread>

Summary

Jericho, a member of Justice, organizes a raid with two locally sourced mercenaries, Will and Middy. The raid includes not only the destruction of a major brothel, but the displacement of its slave labor into greater Alterion, helping them find their way back home or safe passage and the potential for gainful employment.

Notable Consequences

• A major brothel in Izral is destroyed and the slave workforce is set free, dealing a two-pronged blow to the business
• The displaced slave labor is given means to escape Izral and get back to their homes and families through a cult-like operation calling themselves the Brothers and Sisters
• Those servants and slaves without homes are given safe passage to Terrenus and connected to Justice satellite offices, as well as Middy's Black Head

Opportunities

• Chase down the Brothers and Sisters of Justice
  • Contact @supernal if this is taken up. Include @paradigm and I will add a bounty post with Notoriety and Monetary rewards. 
• Build a new business in the area that the brothel was destroyed
