Post by: Makashi on January 06, 2008, 06:25:59 PM
Looking for information into the murder of Sil'via In'Darsus

If you have any information regarding this case please report it to the authorities immediately.
One named Jon Heinrich has been arrested under suspicion of working with others which led to the death.
A trial will be held at a later date when more suspects involved have been confirmed.

Your help and assistance looking into this is most welcomed.

*tacked on below the notice*

Information Update:

There were two others involved in the murder, Jon Heinrich had confessed to conspiring to murder Sil'via. The two others and Jon proceeded to take shelter in the ire mountains, within the a temple there.
Jon confessed to worshiping an evil god and has not confirmed if the others are, although suspicions point to Jon and a robed man most likely being part of the same religious group.

Any details in relation to shi, again would help our investigations.

// Never said temple of Corath or anything like that, said, I have an unfavored deity, and I fled to a sort of "safe" area, one that is like a temple to me

aka- Never said anything about Corath, the guard "knew"

My apologies on this matter, hopefully it gets cleared up.

// I hope this clears things up further, Jon Heinrich from the information gathered has been determined from what he had said that he took shelter in the temple in the ire mountains.
Also stated he worshiped an unfavoured God, an unforgiving, evil one.

I think this leaves little for the guard to guess about the corathites being involved.

It's not hard to put 2 + 2 together.

i can point out one of the others, but i doubt he's stupid enough to go near me. But if he shows himself i will drag him to hempsted and to the guards. I never seen his face, but i remember his voice.

// Eh, I though the Corath temple was secret? So the guard wouldn't know?

My character did not rat out the temple or say others worshiped the deity.

I guess they do know then, otherwise the guard wouldn't have asked my char. questions about it.

//Yeah I thought the same, as I understood it, no one knew of the Corath temple even existing in the mountains, so I don't understand how him worshipping an unfavoured evil god in the mountains says a Corath temple is there. I'm confused to say the least.

//Again OOC I also wish to state that you know OOC who the second person is, but you have no proof, or reason to arrest and detain. You must think logically about it hellspawn666, would you really remember a voice by heard from 2-3 sentences and a few weeks inbetween? At the meeting with the lich I barely spoke until you were gone. If I remember correctly your character was also a fighter and not overly intelligent, so I doubt it even further. Not only that but the clothes worn on the day are radically different from the clothes worn inbetween and currently, which have changed drastically six times since then. I want people to remember what it says on the loading screen. You can't see the floaty text above their head. I don't want to be accusatory, but so often people call my character by name when he has never said it, please please try and remember this.

//I also want to say, remember my voice from where, unless it was the actual meeting with the lich himself, simply being with another character is not proof that one of them is guilty of some crime.

// you guys are forgetting some things
your always together
the temple location may be a secret but rumors have been around for years of one someplace in the ires
anyone who has ever seen jon knows he runs about with a mage and a paladin, and maybe a soon to be fallen paladin since he has been aiding suspected now known to be evil god followers

just my two cents though

its makashi who has the final say over this as its from his quest

Dalan wonders by and sees the notice that has been posted.  His eyes light up with a firery rage as he strokes "Tempest".
 
 De foul creatures have harmed de lass.  Me thinks they might not make it to justice though I suppose dat be what should happen to dem.  I wonder if dis be de same temple lookin buildin I found buried in de mountains on one of me trips?  It had a most foul stench about it and evil creatures parading around de double doors.  It turned me stomach so when I entered dat I dinna go but a few steps within.
 
 With these words to himself, he moves off to find Captain Trent and the family of his "niece".

//Although you "found" the temple mechanically, you have not found it technically and therefore cannot get into it or know the location therof. I'm sure a GM would be happy to explain this to you. As was explained to me more than once by more than one GM, despite having easily found it in the mountains mechanically, I have not actually found it myself, until I was shown, it is also to be treated as a guild house, with no entry allowed by non members without permission, just giving you a headsup.

//hum all guild hall are given keys to the guild leader (must be purchased from the real estae agent) who then makes copies of the keys, where the door are closed and locked (the option to leave it open is still there). I seem to remember a post somewhere about the one who had the temple built wanting it to be closed off and locked, and it was refused because it was a temple.

Every where in game there is temple that can be found either by pure luck or by being shown. It would be total nonsense, unless there is a precise warning message ICly in game stating that the person does not see the temple because it is warded by illusions, that it would not be found by anyone that is not from that faith.

I go by this line of thought, unless there is precise GM notes in game or on the forum, Icly, that says something isn't there, then it is until proven otherwise.

So based on that it is highly probable that the temple would have been found. Now would Dalan know that it is exactly a temple of Corath unless he went deeper and talked with the people inside? Probably not, but with the things he is hearing now, he could make 1 +1 = 2

//I was explicitly told by a DM that it is a secret temple and so whilst you can see it mechanically, you cannot technically find it as it's *hidden*, hiding it of course isn't possible in game.

OK everyone.  I'm pulling this thread over to the side of the road for a bit.  Everyone listen up.

The Temple of Corath in the Ire mountains IS secret.  What is represented in-game is a limitation of mechanics.

In the game world, there are absolutely NO external markings showing that it is a temple, much less one to Corath.  In the game world, the location is MUCH harder to find there and would be guarded...heavily.  Whatever most people think they've found simply hasn't been found that easy.

Unfortunately we simply cannot represent this with sufficient accuracy in-game.

We've stated this repeatedly, but clearly it's been several months since the last time this came up, so consider this a reminder, please.

As for who would know...

Clearly those who have been shown the temple by a member of the Corath church would know.  Anyone who might have stumbled upon it while exploring has not found the temple, even if said person is a Corathite.

It is somewhat known that there may be a temple to Corath or some other dark god in the Ire mountains, but the exact details of its existence are not common knowledge.  

Remember that worshiping Corath is explicitly illegal on Mistone.

How long do you think the combined churches of Rofirein and Toran, not to mention the Brelin Kingdom authorities, would simply stand idle and let such a place continue to remain unassaulted/unmonitored/unwatched if its location were so well known?  Simply put: not long at all.

Please keep this in mind going forward.

This thread has now been dragged completely off-topic.  It's a rumor thread, not a debate thread.  Start a debate elsewhere if one absolutely must continue.  This one is closed.
