The Knights of the Angelic Order of the Knights Magier are on this day announcing their intention to apply their church sanctioned mandate fully. All persons within the realm of Muelsfell who's jobs relate to golem crafting shall from this day on be subject fully to our law.
Golem crafting, the magic of bringing forth life, is a God-Given ability sacred to it's inner most mechanics. Thus, the authority to regulate it fall directly to the Church. We, as a branch of the greater church within Muelsfell, are charged with ensuring that the sanctity of the craft is never tainted with profanity, and are the group most capable of speaking on behalf of the Church in regards to matters of golem use.
Refusal to cooperate with the Order significantly compromises our ability to investigate crimes and heresy against the Church. As such, disregardful behavior will be dealt with harshly. You will follow our Law, or pay the price.
Formal Law:
Maintaining the Peace of St. Belin's Day:
Any beligerent behavior taking place on St. Belin's day is forbidden, and punishable by fine.
Passed: 21-03-1692 Sanctity of Use Tax:
The Sanctity of Use fund shall be established.
This fund shall consist of contributions from outside the Order.
A minimum contribution for all clans shall be established.
The base contribution shall be derived from the equation (high ranked clan member's levels+# of other clan members)*2000 iron/week.
The resources in the Sanctity of Use fund shall be put toward the investigation and prosecution of crimes relating to golem use.
It shall be permissible for a clan to negotiate a payment of some other resource than iron of equal or greater value.

| The Mottonsborough Clerk's Office might be a bit upset at you stepping into their territory. You know how defensive and vengeful bureaucrats can be. I would imagine that they might revoke your permits should you start harassing people. Step carefully with your mandate. |

| Ok, in this delusional little world of yours where this claim has some sort of validity, how are we supposed to know what these laws are? That's kind of important isn't it? |

Have some patience, Scone. We'll be getting there soon enough.
We assure you, Pegga, that we are acting of different jurisdictional grounds than the Clerk's Office, and a conflict is not seen as imminent. |

We must stand united against this coming threat, allowing it to pass will just fuel the flame of their pious arrogance. How can we, citizens of the realm, possibly allow our lives to be ruled by fear of an outdated Inquisition. They have power now, true, but their might cannot possibly stand against citizens presenting a united front.
If you think that the actions of Magier have no effect upon you, I leave you with this thought.
First they came for the Communists,
- but I was not a communist so I did not speak out.
Then they came for the Socialists and the Trade Unionists,
- but I was neither, so I did not speak out.
Then they came for the Jews,
- but I was not a Jew so I did not speak out.
And when they came for me, there was no one left to speak out for me. |

While this might be fine and dandy to something isn't it a note of interest the worst tyrants and beaurocrats normally claim some sort of divine inspiriation? Now I am as devote as the next lay person but the last time I checked the kingdom HAD guards.
Otherwise I was fined by a magical shoe.
Please PLEASE don't put the shoe out of business!

| I would say more like "loophole exploiting". And I don't think they qualify as tyrants yet, that would imply they actually rule something. Any violent madman can declare him/herself the ruler of something without actually getting control over it. |

O_O That's some bold slander. I know we're not exactly nice, but I'm pretty sure we follow the rules.
Edit: Oh! The alchemical golem thing. >_> Right. It sounded like you were supposed to be able to do that when we first started, and now we can't turn them back, and they were expensive golems to begin with, so not using them...Last Edited: Jul 22, 2008, 4:44 pm |

| If I bowed my head to their rule and submitted myself to their will, they would be tyrants. And, exploiting two-clan loopholes is not "playing by the rules", under any circumstances. |

A notation:
To those disliking the pompous officiousness of the Magier, and their foolhardy attempts to impose their warped morality on all in their bloodthirsty crusades, join the New World Order. We seek to change things, bringing about an age of self-interest, where the powerful may pursue their own ends, with no need to worry about the prying eyes of self-appointed sources of so-called 'Law', or appease the powerless icons of so-called 'Divinity'.
Join with us, and help us end the hateful tyranny that dares to name itself 'Good'... forever. |

| Yeah, Magier certainly knows how to make a scene and draw attention. If you're not interested in their politics, join another clan, like maybe Hereti Corp, dedicated to promoting our own interests. Or we would be, if we had any outside our workshops. |

So MAGIER is going to rule the world because they have the mandate of the spiked chain? Nice. They're like a sick hybrid of the worst traits of America's world police attitude, Corleone's Mafia, and Hitler wrapped up in a shiny God-loves-me-better-than-you ribbon.
I also have to wonder, what Church of Muelsfell? Do you mean Saint Alfred's Church? If so, have you even been there? I saw the giving to the homeless, the poor, and the destitute part but I must have missed the whole Crusade/Jihad sign-up roster in the corner.
You are not in charge. You are not God's chosen. You are not even all that amusing. Stop trying to ruin Muelsfell for everyone else just to feed your overinflated ego and sense of self-righteousness.

| I disagree that golems are living things. They are mechanical in build and construct and magically powered. They have all the properties of life that an average automobile has. They do not breathe, eat, feel pain and are unable to function without magical command. Therefore, I do not believe your mandate applies to me. Should I ever be able to create a living being, I may pay slightly more attention it it. However, I don't plan on getting involved in Necromancy. |

Shame you edited the post so fast, I like the reply where you said your Clan has no use for tolerance better. So good and beneficent a value, makes sense you don't have or need it.
You know, your Clan being so righteous and holy and all. |
