C.A.R.P.S.

A group of five humans all wearing the livery of Devris come into the tavern and post the following notice:

The valken'vi known as Taleous has been found guilty of crimes against the kingdom. A reward of up to two hundred verlan is being offered for information leading to capture and execution.

House DeVry is also offering bounties in the following amounts for the following individuals if they are brought in alive.

TEMIL BRIGHTFOOT - 1 Wald
DEITRICH KRANKHEIGHT - 1 Wald
NADJA RATICIERRE -1 Wald
ARYA RATICIERRE - 1 Wald
KUHLAI - 1 Wald
RAYMOND RATCLIFFSON -1 Wald
MELANA ROSE - 1 Wald
GWENAVIVE PATHSTRIDER -1 wald
DAMARA -1 Wald
MALITA ANDRJKOVICH -1 Wald

The human going by the alias of Q - 20 Wald

Signed,
Kelvin Skress
Acting magistrate of Tarragon

ziggy reads the note, shrugs and sighs and goes back to his lab.

"wonder which noble got a bug up their ass about an imagined slight this time"

"One fuckin wald!?!" Exclaims Kuhlai after reading the sign once the humans have left.

"It's more of an insult than an actual damn bounty! At least make it worth the asshole's time who tries it." He continues before leaving the tavern a short while later.

Um, you're under arrest.

*ziggy holds up a hand to daniel*

Brother, you know these officials people like to act first think second, lets find out whats going on before we go nabbing anyone for a measly one wald bounty.

lol, I'm not a bounty hunter. But if I were wanted I'd be sure to show up in town in front of everyone and read the bounty in the middle of the inn, oh wait, no I wouldn't. Seriously though, Kuhlai, you should get this taken care of before someone really does attempt to take you in for the money.

too true brother, too true

Around this time, Wesley stomps up and into the tavern, returning from a routine patrol. He looks grumpy, ever since the night before last. Lost in thought, he almost walks right past the wanted poster. After a double-take, he examines it closely, and almost shouts in exasperation. He covers his mouth before he can make a sound, and quickly storms away.

That being said, if everyone on the lists wants to turn themselves in to me, I'm all about buying drinks for the town for as long as the money lasts! lol I mean it says alive so I'm assuming these people will simply be questioned.

Edited to say "ALL" not "not"

Whisper enters the Inn and places a note under the Wanted Poster. She then takes a seat behind the bar.

"House Jakoric advises that all Wanted townsmembers turn themselves in. House DeVris will decree that those Wanted townsmembers that do not turn themselves in are avoiding investigation and harsher charges will be issued. If you would like House Jakoric representation when you turn yourself in, please contact a member of House Jakoric and we will bear witness.

Safe Travels,

Whisper
Local Head of House Jakoric"

err all about... misspoke when I said not

*ziggeh gets up to go read what whisper wrote, looks over to her, then scribbles a little note underneath to the effect of

"escort services for hire to those listed, see teh zig for details -teh zig"

Whisper will walk over while Ziggy is scribbling his note. She will offer him a smile. "Thank you for your offer, Ziggy. It is comforting to see townsmembers band together to assure and protect one another." She then returns to the bar.

*reads them and walks to Whisper*

Perhaps it would be easier for these people to turn themselves in if they knew why they were wanted. Perhaps some trust or transparency on that. I mean if they wanted me, I'd be worried about going there and never being seen again.

"Insofar as I can discern, Midway's Sylvani are simply wanted for questioning. Raymond has already turned himself in and been released. He provided a list of the questions he was asked. So long as our townsmembers have nothing to hide, the questioning should be quick and painless."
