Mr Xexion giggled with glee as the money was send out to all those who had applied for the Soda Rush. He was happy that there were so many that wished to make their way in this new and exciting fad within the Realm of Rodaxear.<br>
<br>
<br>
Sure, many of those that applied for the 1000 gold will have their businesses be too much and crumble and fail, especially as there were some absolute tough customers out there that wanted to try their hand in the matter.<br>
<br>
<br>
But he was sure that some would clearly rise to the top and prove to create a business that will last the ages.<br>
<br>
<br>
As a lich, he had all the time in the world to see how all of these bubbling and petty squabbles would pay off, to see those among them to squabble to the top and for there to be a new order of things in the burgeoning world of Soda and Potions.<br>

<b><u>Eridium Bubblers Co</u></b>.<br>
<br>
<br>
The Valley was all a flutter with activity. The new small factory had just finished construction and now Eridium Bubblers Co was searching for employees. There were many Orcs and Humans in the area that wanted to find new work, especially with the recent collapse of a nearby mine that was the source of labor for many.<br>
<br>
<br>
Orcs and Humans lined up for miles to apply for the positions, but for this small business, only 25 were hired: 20 Human Workers and 5 Orc Guards. With the promise of more being hired in the future.<br>
<br>
<br>
The people of Valley Gorge were a rough and tumble people and it seemed that the new Soda Company owner that set up shop in their backyard would be fitting right in, having been the daughter of a Renowned Adventurer. (Bonus Dealing with Adventurers).<br>
<br>
<br>
While setting up shop, she had discovered the Dior Mushrooms, her own personal ingredient to get her started with making her sodas. It had a thick, Umami, savory flavor that could be used to make a drink that could appeal to Orcs and hearty Humans who work long hours in back breaking labor. (Bonus to Local Sales)<br>
<br>
<br>
As the only factory in Valley Gorge, it would be relatively easy for them to corner the Local Market and eventually make it more difficult for other companies to gain a foothold.<br>

<b><u>Burlsi</u></b>.<br>
<br>
<br>
Clockwork City never slept. It was physically impossible for it to. People were always moving to and fro at all hours of every day. Day shifts, Night Shifts, in between shifts, extra shifts. There was always something or someone moving at all times in the land that was originally built by Goblins.<br>
<br>
<br>
Of course now it was more of a hodgepodge of various races that made this land their home. But it took a special kind of individual to keep up with all the constant changes and the fluctuations in the flow of Coin.<br>
<br>
<br>
It was a land where fortunes could be both made and lost in the span of a single day. It was a place that was ever in flux. New things were being built, while old things were being torn down.<br>
<br>
<br>
Everyone needed to keep moving in Clockwork City.<br>
<br>
<br>
And on this day, the small factory of Denk Nachkams of Burlsi was completed. It was to be a grand project of Goblin Ingenuity and Pride. Soon enough to have a large corporation that would fling to the far corners of the Realm with his new ingredient, Beetle Bark. It was bark that looked similar in coloring to beetles, hence the name, but possessed an earthy, and almost sweet taste. It would certainly perform well in a constantly moving location such as Clockwork City. (Bonus to Local Sales)<br>
<br>
<br>
From the hiring process, it looks like Denk ended up with Workers: 30 Goblin Workers, 10 Human Workers, 5 Orc Workers, and 5 Elf Workers.<br>
<br>
Guards: 2 Human Guards, 2 Orc Guards, 2 Goblin Guards<br>
<br>
<br>
As the only factory that exists within Clockwork City, it will help give an early foothold. Though a place that is bustling as this, will be unable to keep other sodas out entirely.<br>

<b><u>Reginald’s Private Reserve</u></b><br>
<br>
<br>
The Coasts of Minosa were a place of warmth, comfort, and relaxation. As such, it was a strange, but not unwelcome site to see the construction of a small Factory in the very port town.<br>
<br>
<br>
Of course, opening up a business in the port town made sense to everyone present. After all, you had access to the Port for distribution (Bonus to supply for other regions), and it brought in people from all over the Region. So you often could take advantage of greater word of mouth. (Bonus to Positive Events)<br>
<br>
<br>
Reginald negotiated with the local mermaids and acquired the location of an ingredient that would help give people lots of energy and keep them focused on multiple tasks at once. The mermaids said that they used it when they needed to get everything ready for the holidays. Otherwise they were a very laid back people.<br>
<br>
<br>
A call was put out once the factory was built, for employees. It was heard that the owner was a powerful mage that treated everyone equally. There were however rumors that the mage experimented on people for his own pleasure. (Bonus in Negative Events)<br>
<br>
<br>
But people of all different shapes, ages and genders flocked to his factory. Workers: 2 Gelatinous Cube Workers, 3 Kobold Workers, 2 Orc Workers, 3 Human Workers, 2 Goblin Workers, 3 Skeleton Workers, 5 Mermaid Workers<br>
<br>
Guards: 6 Mermaid Guards<br>
<br>
<br>
People were very happy by the diversity of the hiring of this company and could lead to greater employee actions inside and outside the factory.<br>
<br>
<br>
Both Fish Oil and the Holy Powder were ingredients that were popular with the locals. That along with being the only factory in the area, will help with local sales. (Bonus to Local Sales)<br>
<br>
<br>
However, due to the docks, it will be difficult to keep a complete stranglehold on the soda business in Minosa. Though at present, the people will love the available flavors.<br>

The Dead Lands, a place of Fallen Empires and hordes of Bones. Within its territories, countless small Empires and Kingdoms exist within its borders. No two locations within the Dead Lands follow the same doctrine or even the same grievances. It is a place of differences. Some exist within the past with older ways and thoughts, while others look towards the future.<br>
<br>
<br>
The main thing that unites them, is that they are all intelligent undead. But they all have different views on what that means. Mainly depending on what the values of their Empire or Kingdom had been.<br>
<br>
<br>
The one thing that most undead can agree on, however, is that they will use their time. They love to party and spend their unlife getting to do the things that they never got the chance to do in life.<br>

The small factory finished its construction. Many had gathered around it as it was being built as word had spread that the Great Sternum Manovicco was to be the owner of this factory.<br>
<br>
<br>
People knew of how great of an alchemist he had been until his untimely death. But now that he had joined the legions of the Boney Hordes, many flocked to him.<br>
<br>
<br>
Word Quickly Spread that Sternum was ONLY hiring Undead and not any other races. Some people were discouraged by this. (Negative Bonus to Sales in Other Nations) But Great Pride was swelling in the land of Skeletons. After all, he supported their cause. It would be made By Undead, For Undead! (Positive Bonus to Local Sales).<br>
<br>
<br>
Workers: 20 Skeleton Workers<br>
<br>
Guards: 6 Skeleton Guards<br>

While his bony boys were searching around, they came across the A large Tree Growing in a secret Valley of The Dead Lands. They took the Root of The Elder Tree, and knew that it would be a great ingredient for a Soda Company as it tasted sweet with a hint of tartness.<br>
<br>
<br>
However, they were not alone in believing that The Dead Lands would be a Great Place to set up shop. A rival was also setting their sights within this place.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><u>Devilishly Fine Soda and Potions</u></b><br>
<br>
<br>
Another small factory popped up within the Dead Lands. An unknown figure was behind its construction. They only had the name: Trilroxan. It seemed that this figure was wanting all types of races. There was not a limit such as the other factory. As such, more people were willing to apply for jobs at this factory. (First 6 New Employees can be hired at Half Cost)<br>
<br>
<br>
Worker: 2 Kobold Workers, 2 Human Workers, 2 Orc Workers, 2 Goblin Workers, 2 Skeleton Workers<br>
<br>
Guards: 2 Kobold Guards, 2 Human Guards, 2 Skeleton Guards<br>
<br>
<br>
The Dead Lands can be a harsh place for the uninitiated and due to its very nature, not many ingredients can be found there. The Demon’s employees managed to discover a grove of trees on which was a strange white berry that grows within a hidden cave that has enough exposure to light for them to grow. They were thought to be the last purity left in the Dead Lands and were named Pure White Berries.<br>
<br>
<br>
The Pure White Berries tasted almost sickeningly sweet. It seems to have a good effect on Arthritis, High Blood Pressure and Infertility. Certainly an up and coming Demon can find a use for such an ingredient.<br>

<b><u>Wicked Brew</u></b><br>
<br>
<br>
The University of SpellHard was a true institution of Learning. So much so that it became a large governing body that it finally emerged as its own nation comparable to others. That did not stop people from many nations of the Realm, sending their children there to learn. It in fact, made it all the more premiere.<br>
<br>
<br>
Here was a nation that was open to all as long as they worked and studied hard, and paid their proper tuition, of course. There were many scholarships that one could apply for, to cover costs and as a whole, it functioned very well.<br>
<br>
<br>
This new soda craze led to a most interesting trend.<br>
<br>
<br>
Within Spellhard, two competing soda companies emerged, the first of which was Wicked Brew.<br>
<br>
<br>
It was well known that it was the reclusive Gold Dragon that started it. Rumors abound that he used up all of his wealth after an accident. But also rumors abound that it as possible as an employee to get to learn magic from him. Something that no one has been able to do in many, many years. (Happiness Boost even at Lower Pay)<br>
<br>
<br>
He has transformed his own home and offices into a small, but serviceable factory with the finest tools that a Dragon Horde could afford.<br>
<br>
<br>
Many lined up to join his new company, but the Dragon was selective. And this is who was hired.<br>
<br>
<br>
Workers: 2 Human Workers, 3 Elf Workers, 2 Wizard Interns (1 Human, 1 Elf)<br>
<br>
<br>
Guards: 4 Kobald Guards, 2 Human Guard<br>
<br>
<br>
In his travels for an ingredient, Auridrex managed to discover a useful one within a Forgotten portion of the University. A Greenhouse contained a plant with a red fruit known as Dragon’s Breath. It was an extremely spicy Fruit and would certainly go well for both Students and Orcs. (Bonus to Local Sales)<br>
<br>
<br>
However, a rival organization set up shop on University Grounds.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><u>Duster Energy</u></b><br>
<br>
<br>
The Branding, Beautiful Harpy Women to University Folks. It certainly seemed like a match made in heaven for this new company springing up with a small factory within the nation of SpellHard.<br>
<br>
<br>
They certainly have the cornered market based on the mascot alone. (Bonus to Local Sales)<br>
<br>
<br>
Tonne clearly already spent a lot of money to get access to a prime location within the University. Not only will they be able to get good workers, but their target audience is walking all around the campus.<br>
<br>
<br>
They were picky in the hiring process, bringing in mostly workers from Clockwork City, Goblins and Humans.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Workers: 10 Human Workers, 10 Goblin Workers, 2 Wizard Interns (1 Goblin, 1 Human)<br>
<br>
<br>
Guards: 6 Harpies<br>
<br>
<br>
Tonne’s people managed to discover a hidden lake where they were able to get full access to Dark Clams. They were a very salty ingredient.<br>

<b><u>Mist Bubbles Sodas &amp; Teas LLC</u></b><br>
<br>
<br>
Humans were the top of the food chain in this nation. There was not a place where Humans were anywhere but the top in the Churchocracy. It was a dark place for those not born of human descent.<br>
<br>
<br>
The Inquisitors and Red Priests made sure that all went according to the Tenants of the Land. The major of which being that humans were in charge.<br>
<br>
<br>
It was not a death sentence for other races to exist within this nation, but it was akin at best to being a second class citizen.<br>
<br>
<br>
Humans got the best of everything and all the other races in descending order of humanness received the leftovers.<br>
<br>
<br>
Magic was also a topic of the day, but the wrong type of magic could get you turned over to the Inquisitors and the Red Priests.<br>
<br>
<br>
Siu was given a building that was converted into a small factory that was to be kept under the watchful eyes of the Inquisitors and Red Priest.<br>
<br>
<br>
Before they would arrive, the small factory was replaced by a similarly sized Mimic. To all, it looked like a normal building, just with additional strange creaks and noises. (Increased Defenses against attacks and spies)<br>
<br>
<br>
Humans wanted to get in on the action and joined, though some were replaced by mimics afterwards.<br>
<br>
<br>
Workers: 10 Mimic Workers, 10 Human Workers<br>
<br>
<br>
Guards: 6 Human Guards, 5 Inquisitors, 1 Red Priest<br>
<br>
<br>
Siu believed that there was a clue to his past in this Churchocracy and while out searching, managed to discover a strange tree underneath the factory. He named the strange black leaf from the Tree, The Leaf of the Harbinger. It tasted bitter, but that might appeal to those of the Church. (Bonus to Local Sales)<br>
<br>
<br>
But he was not alone in having the idea to set up shop in the Churchocracy.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><u>10 by 10 Co</u></b><br>
<br>
<br>
A large factory had been signed off on. It was to be the start of a large government based Soda Corporation. However, there was a strange accident that resulted in all of the employees, guards and owner killed by a large sized Gelatinous Cube.<br>
<br>
<br>
While the Churchocracy was going to be sending in Adventurers, so as to not risk the lives of their own soldiers on something so dangerous, there were rumors of the plant becoming operational.<br>
<br>
<br>
That a product was going to be released. Under normal circumstances, the building and all who reside within would be purged, but the leaders of the Churchocracy had invested much money in the original premise and as such, they were willing to give the current residents a chance.<br>
<br>
<br>
The Usual Cadre of Inquisitors along with a Red Priest were sent in to keep a watch on how it was all to proceed.<br>
<br>
<br>
All were announced welcome, but many kept their distances away for now.<br>
<br>
<br>
Workers: 3 Gelatinous Cube Workers, 2 Human Workers<br>
<br>
<br>
Guard: 6 Human Guards, 5 Inquisitors, 1 Red Priest<br>
<br>
<br>
Within the factory, a partially dug out section was discovered as a strange tasting Earthen Mound. The flavor was a Macha taste and it was decided that it would be perfect for their new Soda as an ascetic Drink . (Bonus to Local Sales)<br>

The Council of Grihaas was happy to host one of the new and hopefully up and coming soda companies that had been starting up.<br>
<br>
<br>
Sherlock Moriarty was a known name as he came from a rich family with a good background.<br>
<br>
<br>
After being sold the deed for a small factory, Sherlock started attracting all kinds of employees from within the greater area of Grihaas.<br>
<br>
<br>
Workers: 5 Human Workers. 5 Orc Workers. 5 Goblin Workers. 5 Elf Workers<br>
<br>
<br>
Guards:  3 Human Guards. 3 Orc Guards<br>
<br>
<br>
The Moriarty family had access to fields of Ysrendelle canes. They were very sweet and sugary. It will certainly make his soda extra sugary compared to all his competitors. (Bonus to Local Sales)<br>
<br>
<br>
As the only soda factory within the nation, he should be able to grab an early advantage in this section of the realm.​</div></div>

<br>
<i>Regi</i><br>
<br>
The factory was as lively as it had been the day he opened it, while Reginald was rarely, or, well, never, a part of that noise, it did make his heart swell. The sounds of laughter, of yelling, of barking orders, the occasional slushing sound as one of the Cubes moved close enough to his office to hear it as it worked, it was wonderful. For years, he had spent his time in his small office at SpellHard, far removed from the other professors and the students, teaching classes with only a few students, spending his days and nights in mostly isolation as no one ever seemed to be around when he came calling, but that was surely down to just bad timing on his part, Regi never seemed to have good luck with people. While he wasn't a part of the fun and no one really talked to him unless they needed something, Regi was sure it was only a matter of time before he could crack open a Marina Pearl and drink with his employees, to laugh at their antics <i>with </i>them instead of watching them from his window. Only a matter of time.<br>
<br>
Regi stood up from his desk, gripping the wood tightly to support his weight as he called forth his ivory staff to his hand and leaned on it with a heavy sigh as pain exploded up and down the right side of his body, the bent bones and strangled nerves cried out in protest as thousands of needles of pain dug and tore their way through his body. The wizard let out a hiss of pain that came out distorted and seemed to almost echo through the small office. He moved his left hand, the fingertips dancing in the air as light seemed to carve through the air as a arcane symbol slowly manifested and surrounded him with light, the magical power coursing through his body and numbing the pain. A simple cantrip, but one that Regi had to cast every few hours if he wanted to be able to do anything besides scream. With the pain numbed, Regi limped over to the large window in his office that overlooked the factory floor, he put his left hand against the glass and peered down at his employees, his people. <br>
<br>
It looked like most were coming back from break, he could see the goblin, Vaz, and two of the Kobolds, Snott and Vex, giggling like children as they slowly tipped back vials of Holy Powder into the eye socket of the skeleton Archibald 'Whitey' Antonius. It had become something of a daily game for them as Archibald often seemed to 'doze' off during break, phasing everything out, perhaps trying to organize the centuries of life the skeletal male had lived? When he did so, others would try to sneak up on the skeleton lost in his stupor and see how much holy powder they could fit in his skull. The contestants was normally the Goblins and the Kobolds, but every once in awhile, a few mermaids would join in on the game too, and from what Regi was able to tell from his examinations, the winner was given some form of snack at lunch made by Meredith, who was quite the chef from what he had heard and smelled from a distance. The only one who didn't seem to enjoy the game was Archibald who tended to have large amounts of white powder falling out of his skull onto the floor and his clothes every day, thus the unfortunate name of 'Whitey'. He often thought he should ask Nadia to put a stop to it, if only to protect the dignity of Archibald, but each time he went to speak of it, he hesitated. Things were going well, while none of the employees outside of Nadia spoke to him, they nodded to him and even gave him small smiles! Smiles that for some reason trembled and they would look away, but that was all fairly normal and was a step in the right direction. If he came down on them like this, what if he lost that small step? No, it wasn't truly harming Archibald, and someday, maybe someday, Regi could try the game too. <br>
<br>

<i>Nadia</i><br>
<br>
"Nadia, the boss is staring again," a pale haired mermaid said with a yawn as she stood by a window, enjoying the warm rays of light that spilled in. <br>
<br>
"Mmhm," Nadia said as she slowly chewed on her seaweed wrap, the red haired mermaid was far more interested in her wrap then she was with the bosses stares, it really was pretty normal these days even if no one understand what was going on in that whacko's brain, but hey, the pay was great <i>and </i>easy. So long as he didn't suddenly demand she do something weird, she was content to kick back and enjoy her new job, maybe smash a few heads along the way. <br>
<br>
"Its creepy," the pale haired mermaid, Luna, said again, "I don't get what he's watching."<br>
<br>
"Hn," Nadia gave a shrug.<br>
<br>
"And that mask, what is he trying to hide? Why does it always <i>move </i>when he looks at me? Ugh, why are we working with this freak?" Luna asked as she tore her eyes away from Reginalds office and back to Nadia.<br>
<br>
"Because the pay is good," Nadia said as she set down the seaweed wrap and rolled her eyes, "Luna, do we have to have this talk every day? If you don't like it here, leave, go back to being pawed by sailors at the Siren's Call."<br>
<br>
"Don't be mean, Nadia," Luna said, her full lips falling to a pout as she leaned against the warm window, "At least that thing doesn't try anything like that."<br>
<br>
"Yet," Nadia said as she look down at her half-eaten seaweed wrap, her green eyes filled with a dash of yearning. Why did she <i>never </i>get to finish her lunch?<br>
<br>
"Ew, don't say stuff like that," Luna said as a shiver ran down her spine.<br>
<br>
"You're fine, Vex is more his type," Nadia said as she carefully started to wrap up her food and set it back into her bag.<br>
<br>
"That Kobold girl? Are you serious?" Luna said as she bit her bottom lip and leaned towards Nadia, if there was one thing Luna could not resist, it was a good bit of gossip and this was <i>juicy</i>. <br>
<br>
"No," Nadia said as she pushed, "I think Vex and Vaz have something."<br>
<br>
"By the trident, really?" Luna said as she raised a hand to her lips, "I can't wait to tell Una, that little green shrimp has been chasing her for weeks."<br>
<br>
"Mhm," Nadia said as she stashed her bag under the table and stood to stretch, her face furrowing a bit as she stretched her long dark legs. Legs. So gross and they had a tendency to catch on everything. Why did anyone want these things when a flipper was far more convenient? Maybe it was a question for the Professor? Nah, he'd probably use it as an excuse to cut them open and check, "I'll be back," Nadia said as she walked down the assembly lines and towards Witherson's office. <br>
<br>
≡≡≡≡≡<br>
<br>
Nadia knocked on the heavy wooden door, while her face was calm, her emerald eyes almost looked bored as she traced the grains of the wood, her heart thudded in her chest. She hated coming to this office, hated being around the boss. He was.. off. Something about him just didn't click, didn't feel right, at least the dead eyes of a shark could be understood in its simplicity, but the weird mask of the Professor gave nothing away and the swirling lights seemed to peer into her soul.<br>
<br>
"Enter," the hollow, metallic voice seemed to ooze out of the cracks of the door, Nadia closed her eyes and took a small breath before she opened it and stepped in.<br>
<br>
"Hey boss," the mermaid said as she gave a halfhearted wave and moved over to the loveseat in the corner and dropped down into it and slung her legs over the side. She hadn't looked at him yet, but she had to act. To pretend. She was okay. She was fine. He wasn't going to hurt her, he needed her, right? Probably. It was like being near a great sea beast, she had to act confident, to not show fear. She took a small breath before her eyes slowly, almost without her will, traced the dark room until they fell on <i>him</i>. <br>
<br>
The white robes swirled around the man, almost as if they were billowing in some unknown breeze. Numerous gemstones dotted across his chest and shoulders, heavy leathers and furs that no doubt belonged to some horrid beast the Professor had experimented was draped over him. The ivory staff in his hand with the onyx gem seemed to pull in all light and warm around it and Nadia couldn't stop the chill that slowly traced its way down her spine. <br>
<br>
"Are you cold, Nadia?" the masked face slowly turned away from the window towards her, the swirling lights on the metallic mask filtered back and forth, changing shapes and lighting up as if it was searching for something within her. <br>
<br>
"A bit, but I'm alright, boss," Nadia said as she turned her head away, unable to keep looking at the swirling lights that sought to draw her in and trap her. <br>
<br>
 "My apologies," the professor said as he raised his hand and arcane symbols appeared, warmth thrummed through the office but it only made Nadia want to curl into herself and shiver all the more, "I want you to be comfortable."<br>
<br>
"I-I am," Nadia said as she flicked her red hair over her shoulder and stuck her chin out, determined to hide her fear and discomfort, "Think I'm just missing my Holy Powder hit," she murmured. God, she needed some right now. Settle her nerves. <br>
<br>
"Of course, a <i>hit</i>, " the voice said again as the Professor turned back towards the factory floor. Silence fell over the office for a few moments and Nadia's chest constricted, the pressure was there. Did he disapprove of her actions? Was he warning her? Was he leaving her like this on purpose? Her lips trembled and she opened her mouth to speak but he spoke first, "I will need you tomorrow."<br>
<br>
"Me?" Nadia whispered, her heart raced, he wouldn't.. He wouldn't, right?<br>
<br>
"Yes," the masked man said as he gently placed his gloved hand on the glass before him, "I have need of your skills."<br>
<br>
"O-Oh, right, my skills, sure thing boss," Nadia said with a weak smile, god, Luna was right, he was fucking creepy. <br>
<br>
"Thank you, Nadia." <br>

𝓜𝓪𝓴𝓮 𝓢𝓾𝓻𝓮 𝓽𝓸 𝓗𝓪𝓿𝓮 𝓪 𝓗𝓮𝓵𝓵 𝓸𝓯 𝓪 𝓖𝓸𝓸𝓭 𝓣𝓲𝓶𝓮 𝔀𝓲𝓽𝓱 𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓓𝓮𝓿𝓲𝓵'𝓼 𝓒𝓱𝓸𝓲𝓬𝓮!​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-family: 'Copperplate';"> The room was filled with the murmur of whispered conversations, its nearly thirty occupants shuffling in place as they waited for their new boss to arrive. The kobolds were the first to feel it, a shift in the air. It was as if a powerful monster had entered the room and was attempting to subjugate them with its presence alone. Slowly the other workers began to feel it, each falling to their knees or holding themselves up on the walls as it became overwhelming and filling their mind with naught but fear and whispers of death and pain. The feeling came to a sudden stop and all the workers' and guards' eyes shot to the catwalk where a figure cloaked in shadows now stood.<br>
<br>
"Greetings my first staff members, and welcome to Devilishly Fine Soda and Potions!" The figure gestured widely and small flames shot up on either side of it, highlighting them at last. Gasps came from throughout the room as the staff saw the demonic form of Trilroxan for the first time, his horn and fangs glistening in the firelight. "I am Trilroxan, owner and founder of this company. As you can see I have been cursed with the form of a demon, something that I'm sure you can understand has cause me some difficulty in living my old life among the rest of my human brethren and, as such, I decided to take up Mr. Xexion on his offer so that I might be able to raise enough money to break my curse. I ask each of you for your aid in this endeavor and for your support against those who would label me as a villain and kill me for bearing this form against my will, can I ask of you to give it to me?!"<br>
<br>
The staff were quiet, each of them looking around to see who would be the first to respond in either the positive or negative. With a sudden movement one of the orc workers snorted and banged his fist against the wall. "Trilroxan give Dul job, let Dul support family. Dul owe Trilroxan, Trilroxan Have Dul support!"<br>
<br>
At the orcs words others began to call out their own support, the room filling with the sound of affirmations and calls until all in it had pledged themselves to the 'cursed' man. "I thank you all, tonight we shall plan and upon the morrow we shall begin our hunt for new ingredients and our production of our first drink! The white berries which some of you discovered shall be turned into an aid for those growing elderly, or who are unable to produce children! Any man who works in this factory shall have access to this for free and you and your family will not know those pains so long as you stay loyal to this company!"<br>
<br>
A call of Trilroxan's name began to sound and was quickly taken up, soon shaking the room with the sound alone. As the fire around him began to die the demon smiled evilly, the manipulation of his men already beginning.</span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'Copperplate';"><br>

			<div class="bbCodeBlock-content"><b><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"S-s-sir? Excuse me, but 150 gold is an astronomical amount for the marketing of our product launch!"</span></b> Nelaeryn Krisphine, the elf advisor, immediately exclaimed when she heard the amount Sherlock intends to allocate for marketing. Sherlock looked at his assistant and chuckled. <span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)"><b>"Nel. Do you know the reasoning behind my decision? Think about it, you're a smart lad."</b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: null">Nel composed herself and started to contemplate. When she finally figured out why she excitedly looked at Sherlock who was smiling at her and nodding.  "See, I told you, you're smart."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)"><b>"We don't have competitors in the Nation, at least not yet. Not to mention that we have quite a decently sized factory. We need to grasp this opportunity to establish a monopoly and consume the entire market! Or most of it until competitors start popping up."</b></span> <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)"><b>"Indeed. Although we don't have to spend much on advertising costs since we're the only Soda factory, we need to grasp this market as quickly and fantastically. It's better to crown ourselves as King as early as possible."</b></span><span style="color: null"> Sherlock then opened his drawers, took out a folder, and passed it to Nelaeryn. </span><span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)"><b>"The draft of the plan. I created the bones and muscles, I want you to finalize it and give it the skin."</b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: null">Nelaeryn took the folder and began reading. </span><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)"><b>"Some of these strategies I'm unfamiliar with... I thought advertising just means making a lot of posters and offering our products like as a promo."</b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)"><b>"Traditionally, yes. But how are we going to be the world's King of Soda if we go completely go with tradition? We will boldly pave a new road to reach the Throne!"</b></span><span style="color: null"> Sherlock smiled. </span><span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)"><b>"Now, enough dilly-dallying, I want you to complete that as soon as possible. Send in Vrigka once you leave." </b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: null">Nelaeryn nodded as she exited Sherlock's office with her eyes still on the plans.<br>
<br>
<b>Detailed Marketing Plans</b><br>
1. Massive Pre-Launch Giveaway. Give them a taste of the product which will make them crave more. Losses are acceptable as long as anticipation is created. <br>
2. Set a Trend. Turn "Fizz" into a trendy word that will become a household name. (e.g. "You wanna Fizz later?", "Damn bro, I don't know what happened. I got so Fizzed.")<br>
3. Set up partnerships with local influencers. Influential people such as ministers, merchants, or adventurers will be sponsored by the company. If regular people can see these people drinking Fizz(before launch), this will create more anticipation and desire. </span></div>

<br>
<b><span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)">"Yes, I need you to hire me an adventuring party to search for more ingredients."</span></b> Sherlock tossed a pouch full of Gold to Vrigka who easily caught it in his hand.

Today was a new day  for Auridrex, having secluded himself for over a decade even as he continually penned correspondences. His warped form hidden away in the depends of his residence in SpellHard University. The Board had yet to evict him, despite his seclusion as they hadn't wanted to waste funds on adventurer parties just yet. It didn't help that Auridrex would responds to letters send to him, but the boxes flowing out of the annex he had long ago claimed as his was becoming concerning. They soon enough realized the gold dragon was burning through is hoard on some mad project. Metal smiths all over were being consult and vast  quatities of gold were being sent of to be smelted and enchanted to exacting specifications.<br>
<br>
Auridrex had destroyed his hoard in his pride to assemble himself into a functional body. The Board saw as much when the pieces started to arrive. It was a  vast suit of golden armor meant for something inhuman to adorn itself in. The draconic designs upon the armor looked like Auridrex before his accident in the alchemy labs. The creature that emerged from seclusion was a shock; a mass of tentacles forced into humanoid form by the armor. He had a faceplate to focus upon and from which a resonant if gurgling voice could be heard from. They had hoped his intent was to depart, but notice of the Soda Rush had reached here too.<br>
<br>
Auridrex revealed his intent to remain in  SpellHard but more surprisingly he revealed his intent to teach again. However it would be only to those who had the nerve to come serve as interns within his small soda laboratory he had constructed within his annex. It seemed he was intent on producing high quality products of mass output. What once had been a dragon seemed intent on playing the market with what he was pulling together. He even had bought the highest quality tools to produce the product.<br>
<br>
The plan of things was to build a foundation from which to climb higher. To do so would require more bodies from the student population enticed by the promise of lessons from the fallen great dragon himself. Auridrex had started to build a mystique around himself, using his unnatural state and golden armor to come across as something more grand,  perhaps even something one could devote themselves to.<br>
<br>
Actions<br>
1. Create Intern Tier System to provide established rewards for Interns<br>
<i>First Year Interns get longer classes from Auridrex so long as their work isn't lacking<br>
Second Year Interns gain pay and longer class time<br>
Third Year Interns are invited to fully join the company as Brewmasters</i><br>
<br>
2. Begin forming the Brew Cult to gather more Interns and convert paid staff<br>
<i>Auridrex has begun to use his private lessons to entice students into regarding him as a power worthy of devoting themselves to. He seeks to expand this to the workers and guards of his business as well. His Brew Cult is based around worship of himself as an ascended being that has cast off his original form to achieve greater power and knowledge. He encourages those who follows to entice others into joining the operations in his factory, so that he might teach them as well, share his secrets with them.</i>​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center"><b>Factory</b><br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Mr. Nackham knew his Burlsi soda wasn't the best soft drink on the market. Hells, maybe it wasn't even the second best. But for a brief moment, they were the only competition in town. And he had about enough years under his belt to know something else for that matter. Nobody ever amounted to anything on these streets by sleeping and letting the world pass them by. He'd use what the company did have in spades while he still had it. A factory, equipment, and laborers like this could give his customers real value for their money if harnessed correctly. He just had to figure out how to maximize output for now.<br>
<br>
1) Moving assembly lines are designed and installed on the factory floor. Keeping the product moving, and workers stationary, will be a godsend for manufacturing.<br>
<br>
Budget: 10G + up to half of profits from sales.<br>
<br>
2) Mr. Nackham and his managers look for a reliable supplier of caffeine to add to the original Burlsi formula in the Clockwork City.<br>

Budget: 10G + up to half of profits from sales.<br>

<div style="text-align: center"><b>Status</b>​</div><br>
Burlsi: A clear carbonated drink made from (+ to local sales for being sweet and earthy) beetle bark and a moderate amount of sugar. Transparent bottles have knobbly, tree-inspired design. Labeling displays an ent mascot and offers free Burlsi to people who return enough clean and intact bottles to the factory. 20S individually, sold in crates of six for 1G.<br>
<br>
Pay: Workers are paid 5G a season.<br>
<br>
Staff: 30 goblin workers, 10 human workers, 5 orc workers, and 5 elf workers, as well as 2 human guards, 2 orc guards, and 2 goblin guards.<br>

<br>
7:33 PM</i></span><br>
<div style="text-align: center"><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)"><i>This will be the first of many reports detailing the state of affairs of the sole Ten by Ten Company holding of Oupital. Within these pages, I will speak plainly and bluntly about all the coming and goings of its inhuman inhabitants as is my right as one of the crimson tabard of the Churchocracy. To do any less would hinder my ability to tell the honest truth as decreed by the Tenents of this Land. As always these reports are only for my superiors and the heads of the church, lest their wrath falls upon unwarranted eyes.</i></span><br>
<br>
<i><span style="color: #b8312f">I have sought sanctuary in one of the offices of the late managerial staff while my brothers stay within the Mess Hall. Unfitting for ones of our station, with no barracks for workers these accommodations will have to do. Modest in it's approximations, the room holds only the basic necessities needed for such an occupation; a desk, a pair of chairs, a bookcase and a potted plant of some descript. My dwellings harbour a lone window, stationed high above the factory floor, undoubtedly to observe and monitor the factory workers, something I too now do through it's hazy glass.<br>
<br>
<i>I can, with some degree, see the appeal of such a proposed facility. Seemingly following the humble habits of the Inquisition's own halls of habitation, the premise of the Ten by Ten Company was outwardly sound though, as usual, unless guided by the Churchocracy's illuminated hand, susceptible to subhuman corruption.</i><br>
<br>
Below me, cancerous cubes of ungodly goop stagger and bumble along the conveyor lines with impious intent. Lord knows what they think to accomplish here, if such creatures can be even considered able of such a feat. Alongside them subversive stewards, my fellow Man, mind the Gels, often stooping low to clean up after them and shepherding bottles of tarnished tonic to chests for debatable delivery. <br>
<br>
As I write this, the men ply my brothers and I with drink, the sordid soda and corrupted cream a recompense of sorts I surmise. With childish grins they hand out their blighted beverages, as if proud of their work, seemingly ignorant of the taint that no doubt seeps into the brew. <br>
<br>
I watch as the pock scarred employee, his face blemished with dirt, places the soda bottles upon the desk, his breath whistling between the gaps in his teeth and displaced nose. As he looks up at me, I see something in his eyes, a hint of the inner workings of his mind. It perplexes me...<br>
<br>
I question how such a person could stand to work in such conditions, among the bottom feeders of subhuman kind. With Humans standing in their true place within the hierarchy of Oupital, such a man's motives are questionable at best... <br>
<br>
Nevertheless he is a Man, and so deserving of the benefit of the doubt. His cuboid compatriots however will be treated with the contemptible ire that is deserved for such a subhuman species.</span></i><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)"><i>My brothers and I have yet to witness the head of this establishment, the maligned monstrosity eager to skulk the halls of the factory as it engages in putrescent patrol. So to do the factories human custodians. Remnants of the original band of guards by their human appearances, the men come and go into the neighbouring rooms and corridors, the clattering of drawers and cupboards echoing through these vacant halls. Perhaps the guards seek to better arm themselves against the new Master of this lot... Mayhap my condemnation of the men of this mausoleum of manufacture, has been too hasty...<br>
<br>

-Backstory Fluff-<br>
<br>
Light; hard to find, hard to see. Reality broken down, reality chucked to the dumpster. Few could survive in the wastelands of the universe. Only those capable of not befalling the shredding of no reality to hold them together. Not a figment of eldritch or divine power to sustain oneself in these dark and barren places where anything goes, for the most. Hallowed screams of souls as their worlds collasped and flooded into the wasteland, joining its darkness. Souls wandering in hopes to avoid corruption when already too far gone. No smells, no sounds; the In-Between is not safe or livable for most things in the universe. Yet, things still thrive and survive. And they yield terrible powers unlike any other. And from this place, this unfathomable place, a Human arrived. Lost to his name, to his mind, he warped and clutched at the fraying strands of reality, becoming one with the eldritch, with the Eldar. Their secrets, their powers, now much more his. And he stayed, he thrived, and he collected a small brood when he was strong enough to lead and sate their whims. But, he desired more, more to what this world could not provide. So, he came to the realm of Rodaxear to claim a spark of memory, or at the least, some jolly good fun. And maybe remember his morals, he certainly didn't have those anymore. Eldritch beings and morals? What alien things they are to each other. Oh the plans Siu had. <br>
<br>
Was he an aspiring entrepreneur? Quite, but he wanted more. The physical world so orderly... Chaos would be his desire. Siu wanted chaos, and to command it as Eldritch beings always seem to do. Would many die? Would many be flung into chaos? Oh probably, but that was the point, to spread the corruption. But, a far-flung dream. Now, is the time for soda and tea.<br>
<br>
-Present: The Churchocracy of Oupital-<br>
<br>
<i>Humans run these parts, these places. I used to be one of them. Maybe I still am? Maybe I could be again. But, I do not want to lose this power. So much, so much they will never understand. So weak minded and utterly creative, how perfect. The King in Yellow would appreciate this world greatly. However, I cannot be as pragmatic as he. For I need much more power to even began that. But, I understand how. Oh, I know the perfect way. But, not yet. Let's make some money first, let things steep and brew.</i><br>
<br>
Siu gazed out into the countryside, looking out on the rolling hills, forests, and mountains. Opportunities and places to thrive.<br>
<br>
<i>Hmm, I'm sure there is plenty of real estate to grab. Nothing is full of high value things. Same with land. Somewhere out there is a place for me to foster more drones. While they will be more demanding for satiation, I can manage with their contribution. They will be useful to manage equipment costs, and handle the technological problems I will certainly face. Of course, they can be useful in other more... fun plans.<br>
<br>
But, I need to fund these operations. And to fund them, I need to sell this wonderful soda. And to sell it... yes, production. Much more involved over drone production, but necessary and memory jogging somehow. And it will help decide how I price my brews. People base things on what they see, even if it is incredibly wrong. I seem to be testament to that. And a soda tea is a strange concept, but one I think will do well regardless. Maybe a bridge drink for those not so used to bubbles....<br>
<br>
Perfect. Excelsior. So, it commences. So, the arrival has succeeded. So now, it is time to adventure. </i><br></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736445329" style="display: none;"><br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)"><span style="font-size: 26px">Duster Energy</span></span><br>
<br>
    It was a gloomy and depressing day at the University of SpellHard. Although for a wizarding college, almost every day was. Students worked tirelessly to perfect esoteric spells for hard to please professors. They were the lowest rung on the ladder, and their betters never failed to let them know this. Worst of all was the looming shadow of midterms that hung heavy like a dark cloud over the heads of many students who were in the process of falling behind.<br>
<br>
    Milton Friedman was one such student. He was a bored, lonely man that watched the warrior college party every day nonstop while he had to stay back and work on his Thaumaturgy Concepts homework. It was truly hell. His eyes felt heavy with sleep, and he was currently about to doze off at a desk in a vast library.<br>
<br>
    It was then he perked up at the scent of…perfume? The addled Milton picked his head off the desk with a slight dribble of saliva running down his face. A gorgeous harpy met his gaze. She had wingtip eyeliner, maroon eyeshadow, and a reddish blush carefully applied to her smiling visage. Most striking of all were her feathers- deep, crimson red. Then his eyes fell to her claws. Curved, violent in their design. They were a stark contrast to the otherwise inviting figure that stood before him.<br>
<br>
“You look tired,” she giggled in a playful voice. Milton’s face flushed. This was the first time a girl had spoken to him in ages. “Uh…y-yea I’m studying a lot for this hard midterm. W-w-w-w-w-what’s your name?”<br>
<br>
The harpy smiled at him “My name’s Meera! Drink some of this, it will wake you right up. Plus under each cap is a ticket that could win you a single date with any of the Duster Energy girls! Myself included,” she says with a wink. She handed Milton a bottle with a feather on it.<br>
<br>
“W-what’s in this Meera?”<br>
<br>
“It’s got a clam and ginger base with taurine, caffeine, and nootropics to help you study harder. The perfect mix for a smart lil guy like yourself.” She walked off leaving a very confused Milton to try the drink. He was skeptical at first- how could something made from clam juice be appetizing in any way? When he tried it he instantly felt more alert. The buttery clam taste coated his tongue, and then the ginger kicked his taste buds. It was exotic, and just the boost he needed to finish his assignment.<br>
<br>
===================================<br>
<br>
After a very long week, the Duster Energy Girls were exhausted. Meera flopped into a nice down chair along with the rest of her friends. They traded stories about the various strange men they interacted with, Sashi stormed in with a beet red face. She sat down on her throne, and all but slammed a bottle onto the small table between the various chairs.<br>
<br>
“Look at this shit,” she yelled in a shrill tone. The other harpies looked at her with shock, and a silence fell on the room. Sashi’s voice dropped into a quiet, threatening tone. “Wicked Brew. These bastards think they can hone in on OUR turf. Those students BELONG to us. I heard their leader was a disgusting, lumbering mass of tendrils too.”<br>
<br>
Meera spoke up. “What kind of product is it? It can’t be that good.” She slowly uncapped the bottle and took a sip. A spicy, daring flavor deftly wove through her mouth. Passionate dragonfire fruit, familiar sugar, and a wonderful carbonated texture played a symphony for the young harpie. The bottle proceeded to get passed around the circle until each harpy had a sip.<br>
<br>
It slowly dawned on everyone that they were facing stiff competition. “Tonne lied to us,” Sashi said bitterly. “Now we’re hundreds of miles from our home. We only have one hope of getting back.”<br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 26px"><span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">Actions</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255)"><span style="font-size: 15px">1. Have wizard interns begin concocting powerful nootropics to put in Duster energy. These nootropics should make students better at studying and retaining information. Ideally later on, these drinks should be so prolific and potent that a student NEEDS them to compete with other students using the drink. <br>
<br>
2. Put out word for the "win a date with a Duster Energy Girl" sweepstakes. Basically, one of the bottles has a ticket. If someone gets a bottle cap with a ticket, they win an all expenses paid date with ANY of the Duster Energy Girls. This will hopefully drum up interest, and get us some simps. </span></span></div>

Mr Xexion chuckled to himself as he tallied up all the numbers that he had as an influx from all the new businesses. How did he have a complete listing of the various accounts and how much they were making each season?<br>
<br>
Why, a Lich must have some secrets dear reader. Suffice it to say that he was very pleased with the beginning outings that had occurred from all of the start ups.<br>
<br>
It was a most wonderful thing. He had made sure to try each and every one that was out on the market. And of course he already had his favorites.<br>
<br>
But that would be telling, now wouldn’t it?<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>Eridium Bubblers Co.</u></span></b><br>
The Vending machines alone would have done wonders, but it was that combined with the brilliance of the Ad campaign that really chocked in on the actual value of their product.<br>
<br>
First, it got the people talking and then it got the people tasting. The Umami flavor sparked just the right parts of the taste buds after a hard days work in the mines or in the farms.<br>
<br>
It was refreshing, but in a far different way than other flavor sodas. From word of mouth, it was spreading through orc populations, even in other nations. Before long, it might spread by word of mouth to all Orc Populations. (Bonus to Orc Sales)<br>
<br>
It was only a matter of time before they managed to get this drink to every corner of the Valley and into the hearts and mind of every Orc and Human within it, even those that don’t particularly care for it.<br>
<br>
A traveling salesman has set up his own shop with an elixir that is sure to knock your socks off. Employees who have tried it have said that it seems to be a knock off soda of Eridium’s own flavorings called: “Mushroom Falls”.<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>Burlsi.</u></span></b><br>
<br>
The Burlsi soon was the number 1 soda in all of Clockwork city. Of course, it was currently the only soda in Clockwork City, but that didn’t matter in the long term scheme of things. What mattered was that they were currently in the lead.<br>
<br>
The product moved at a speedy rate, especially compared to the other factories operating within other nations. It was an absolute boon that it was made within the Goblin’s own Clockwork City as it bolstered their own reputation. (Decrease to purchasing generic ingredients from the city)<br>
<br>
It didn’t take too long before they were able to track down a reliable source of Caffeine for a relatively reasonable price after some wonderful haggling. (Add Caffeine to permanent resources)<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Looking over the amount of crates of soda that should be remaining within the facility, it seems that they are short by 2 Crates. Was it taken by a worker looking to skim a bit off the top, or perhaps a competitor looking to steal the secrets of the The Burlsi.<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>Reginald’s Private Reserve</u></span></b><br>
<br>
The Marina Pearl was a huge hit. The sailors coming in took the free samples and after telling their shipmates about it, went and bought them by the score. It wasn’t that long before demand was starting to outstrip capability. The workers were managing to keep up with most of the demand for the region and were happy to do so because of their high paying jobs.<br>
<br>
More employees would have to be hired soon in order to keep up with the demands or else customers might start to get upset. But for now, it wasn’t the most major issue.<br>
<br>
Already, scalpers are planning on buying large amounts of The Marina Pearls and sell them at a higher price. This seemed like it could become a major problem down the line if not dealt with sooner rather than later.<br>
<br>
The Dread Pirate J’Kyon fell in love with the drink and offered to have one of her ships turned into a larger factory to replace the current one in exchange for 10% of his earnings. She seemed rather insistent, but seemed far more accommodating than her reputation would have suggested.<br>
<br>
Regi and Nadia managed to locate Coconuts and manage to get access to a steady supply at a good price.<br>
<br>
The people seem to love Reginald’s Private Reserve, even if they think down on the man himself. But it looked as though if things continued in this trend, people might actually like him for himself and not just his company.<br>

<br>
The Ad campaign was a huge success. Members of both the living and the dead communities flocked to see and taste the wonderful sweet berry flavored drink. The Elderly, the injured, those unable to conceive and everyone in between wanted this drink.<br>
<br>
It was becoming very popular. Its various virtues were even being touted outside the Dead Lands. Sales would most likely burgeon outside its borders soon. (Bonus to Sales)<br>
<br>
The main competition within the DeadLands, especially as a Drink by Undead and For Undead, is Mano y Mano Pop n’ Drops. They seem to be cornering the market for undead and seem to be gaining steam within its ranks.<br>
<br>
People have sworn by this drink's amazing properties and the only one so far that seems to come close is The Marina Pearl by Reginald’s Private Reserve. It is said that that drink increases workfold by double and gives huge bursts of energy.<br>
<br>
A mining accident occurred nearby with a multitude of undead trapped inside. When they were freed, they told wild stories of an ancient treasure filled tomb of El Drazz’yur. Adventure Parties flocked to attempt to clear out this dungeon. (Adventurer Party half price for season)<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>Wicked Brew</u></span></b><br>
<br>
Three Different types of Soda. Whereas most were only churning out one, Wicked Brew was already bringing out Dragonrush, Frostwyrm and Inferno. Three different variations of something great.<br>
<br>
Production was small, very small, but the quality was astronomical. There were fights in the streets of the University among students to see who would be able to buy the next one. Sure, Duster Energy had the very pretty girls, but it was Wicked Brew that had the substance. The Quality and care that went into crafting each and every drink shown through in each sip of the alchemical substance.<br>
<br>
The very happy workers tried to churn out as much product as they could, but it was difficult with as few workers and in such a small location.<br>
<br>
Their drink was so popular in fact, that their means of want was far outstripped by the capabilities of production. It was in high demand and as such, would be able to go for a high price.<br>
<br>
People were clammering to join up, just to get some extra of the good stuff. (Gained 5 Human Interns)<br>
<br>
A large amount of Fervent Lovers of Wicked Brew Soda have set up a small tent city near the “Factory”. Only time will tell if this is a good or a bad thing.<br>
<br>
2 Human workers and 1 Elf Worker have converted to the Brew Cult. Gain 2 Goblin Interns.<br>
<br>

<br>
The Duster Girl sweepstakes had taken the Campus by Storm. The big benefit that they had was that they had far more workers and a much bigger factory from which to work with, compared to their competition. (Bonus to Local Sales)<br>
<br>
The downside was that their competition was putting out a far superior product which was netting them lots and lots of cash. It could easily be a more prominent problem if something was not done to curtail those sales in the near future, whether through sabotage, or increased marketing.<br>
<br>
But the lure of an attractive woman, even one that could rend you limb from limb, was still a tempting thing for many men and women that lived and studied among the campus.<br>
<br>
The Drink was started to be used in the case of all nighters and study cram sessions in order to do well on their exams and working long nights on projects.<br>
<br>
A fan club was started calling themselves Fans of The Harpies On Campus, dubbed Fothocs for short. It was made up mostly out of human men and women, but there were some orcs in there as well. They seemed to be holding rallies in support of the Drink, using magical visuals of the Harpy Girls.<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>Mist Bubbles Sodas &amp; Teas LLC</u></span></b><br>
<br>
The sophisticated tea soda was a grand idea. People of the Churchocracy had taken to its subtle flavors that had an almost calming effect. It became popular enough that some church services served rounds of Kindred Jade at the end of a service.<br>
<br>
They were finding their place within the high minded human based society, even if they weren’t really a part of it, they fit the part and no one saw any difference.<br>
<br>
The assembly line made all the difference and with the large amount of workers, everything went smoothly. They would have to eventuall;y expand, or even with their numbers, they might just not have the space to keep up with their demands and production levels.<br>
<br>
If they kept this up, they would easily spread up throughout the entirety of the Churchocracy. Only time would tell how they would fair against their competitor, which did hurt their own sales.<br>
<br>
Siu’s Drones found a location that was remote and easily concealed. It seemed like the most perfect location to begin a breeding ground. Unfortunately, something else had already thought the same thing. A den of demonic Spiders descended on the mimics. (5 Drone Mimics were lost before the rest managed to escape.)<br>

<br>
The Wages were terrible, the conditions were also terrible. But to the people outside the factory, none of that mattered. They did not care. They only cared about how delicious the product was. And there were many among the populace that preferred the rich, earthy flavor of Secret Soda and Secret Cream Soda to Jade Light and KIndred Jade.<br>
<br>
There was something of a debate among the holy members of the church as to which was better and healthier for you.<br>
<br>
But for most people, that didn’t matter. What mattered was the taste. And this tasted good.<br>
<br>
The Inquisitors enjoyed their free samples and were willing to look the other way for minor indiscretions.<br>
<br>
The Workplace vigilance Scheme made everything safer. It was now harder to attack their facility from the outside. (Additional Defense from Attacks to the building or employees)<br>
<br>
One of the High Priests, The Velvet Servant arrived for a tour of the facility. Her face hidden behind a velvet veil, it was unknown what her thoughts were. She whispered to her Red Guards who alerted those around that this facility was now respected by the Church.<br>
<br>
This news spreads like wildfire among the Churchocracy. (Huge Bonus to Local Sales)<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>The Fizz Company</u></span></b><br>
<br>
<br>
The Marketing campaign was out of this world. Fizz, it seemed had become a household name in such a short amount of time. Not only had the original Fizz been gobbled up by the masses with the free give aways, but Fizz was being known as THE word. People seemed to be using it to mean that someone was cool: You’re The Fizz.<br>
And also if you want to get a sugar high: You want to get Fizzed?<br>
<br>
And it truly seemed that lots of major players were enjoying its cool refreshing taste.<br>
<br>
The Orc Adventurer: Darlam RageFist was seen guzzling them in both hands and smashing the glass containers on his forehead.<br>
<br>
The Vampiric Princess: Arleen Quass elegantly sipped them as she lay seductively on her carriage through the night.<br>
<br>
The Galant Wizard: F’Uul Veem drank them while studying through ancient tomes and writing his next big selling romance novel.<br>
<br>
It was the newest craze in the Council of Grihaas and didn’t seem like it was going away anytime soon. (Huge Bonus to Local Sales. Huge Decrease for outside Company Sales)<br>
<br>
The NPC Class Adventurers managed to uncover a source of Saluud. Its a thick substance which grows on walls that has a taste like molasses.<br>

<span style="color: gold"><b>”Gotch’ya!”</b></span> Jude laughed as she sniped a co-worker in the chest with a snowball.<br>
Two snow forts had been assembled on either end of the empty lot space beside the factory. The snowfall the previous night and the sunny sky conditions that afternoon called for a proper snowball fight. It was Jude against the workers. More projectiles whizzed passed Jude as she scurried around dodging all but one that landed straight in the middle of her back.<br>
<br>
Several other workers and one of the guards had lined up defective soda bottles along the ground just around the corner from the chaotic snowball battlefield. They each took turns aiming snow towards the bottles in an effort to break them. When the entire row had been broken, they cleared the pieces into the recycling, and placed a fresh set on the ground. Three rounds of this had passed and Jude made an unexpected appearance. Without mercy, Jude landed a snowball down the back of the guard’s armor. Jude’s grin widened as a chill danced down the orc’s spine. The other workers froze in anticipated horror.<br>
<br>
<b>”That’s it. I throw snowballs at you now,”</b> the guard declared. He gathered an armful of snow that made Jude <i>run</i>. The guard chased Jude back onto the open lot where the rest of the workers were expecting Jude’s return. But they did not expect the orc to come barreling through behind her. The guard launched the giant mass of snow into the crowd and workers tumbled into the ground like bowling pins. <b>”I’M THE SNOWBALL CHAMPION.</b> the guard roared with his fists in the chill air.<br>
<br>
Jude later awarded the orc guard with one of the new sweaters for winning and everyone else for participating.<br>

"What a lovely outcome," Auridrex mused to himself as he looks over the reports of his new array of interns. It was certainly useful that he could pay them in something they craved more than any sum of money. Knowledge in the arts of magic that he had failed provide for over a decade. Now he could use that very lack of his presence as an instructor to gather followers to himself. The Brew Cult had its initial converts but he would have to work harder to bring others under his sway. The more that embraced him as master and icon of worhsip, the more he could get out of them along with expand his reach further.<br>
<br>
"We need more room with all these new interns... I also need to get the University to support my plans. I suppose I have no choice but to cut them in on some level, yesssss," Auridrex said to himself as he stroked his golden faceplate in thoughtful consideration. Some would assume the mutant insane but talking to himself seemed almost a coping mechanism for his lonely existence now. He could still be mad but he was a dragon mentally, one of the great golds of an era past that loved to teach and raise up new generations of wizards even if they were with such short lifespans. They were like candles, formed and molded for him to watch burn beautifully before their light went out. He would find a new purpose for that light though.<br>
<br>
The hulking, gilded mutant moved with determination to gather up the materials to pen a proposal to the University Board, eager to present them with his first earnings as proof his ambition was worthwhile. It was an enticement to give him more space, more room to use his expensive materials and expanding workforce. It was the promise he could provide more to the school if they supported his ambitions, considering he was technically teaching students again even if for labor in exchange. He wasn't the first instructor to do something like that which meant he had some precedent on his side. He only hoped the show of his willingness to work with the University and 'donate' to them would entice something to his benefit.<br>
<br>
There was competition on the grounds but he was going to have to accept that for now. His product was of almost absurd quality. He couldn't compete on quantity, but that meant he could charge more for his sodas. The demand was beyond belief which was his intent. The short lived races were always so eager to clamour for something to give them delight. His sodas were perfect for that. So long as this Harpy brand stayed out of his way, he would not bother with them. He needed to build his own base of output stronger to fill his coffers more, to restore his hoard even as he built one of mortal souls devoted to his now twisted form.<br>
<br>
<b><u>Actions</u></b><br>
1: Donate 100 gold to the University before submitting a proposal to receive an expanded area to handle his increased class load and need for workspace for Wicked Brew production. Potential for future donations or providing the University a cut of net profits.<br>
<br>
2: Commence indoctrination of more staff and interns into the Brew Cult to further expand its numbers within the company itself to create 'brand loyalty' and security for the small but burgeoning soda business.​</div><br>

<div style="text-align: center"><br>
<br>
<i><span style="color: #b8312f">This will be my fourth report detailing the state of affairs of the sole Ten by Ten Company holding within the Churchocracy of Oupital. As detailed in my last report, the inner workings of the factory line has proved a tenuous affair, and so my enlightened superiors within the Church have graciously accepted my recommendations to intermit my reports. Henceforth documentation regarding the current affairs of the Ten by Ten Company will be postponed to a trimonthly basis.<br>
<br>
Naturally </span><i><span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">my current counsel may be disregarded as seen fit by the Church, i</span></i><span style="color: #b8312f">f any of the Inquisitions findings or investigations into the present assets should dictate otherwise. I too, of course, will humbly accept the necessary punishment of having my tongue slit from tip to base for my heedless advice, as befitting the treacherous words of a viper. With my consent to the covenant decreed by the Tenents to the Land for all Heretics clearly documented, I will move on the matter at hand.<br>
<br>
In this past month, there has been an influx of inhuman infidels through these fiendish factory doors. Oafish Orcs, gibbering Goblins and kyphotic Kobolds now walk these corridors alongside more clumsy cubes of God awful gel. It takes all my restraint to not just will these place alight with my brothers and I inside, it's smouldering flames cleansing us of this plants polluting presence. Still the High Priests and my superiors within the Church have deemed this place worthy of respect and so I shall do so, for their word is Law and I merely it's vassal. I take some comfort in the squalid conditions of this place, it's crumbling corridors and warped walkways a felicitous setting for this woeful workforce and an apt means to strengthen my faith. <br>
<br>
For the good of all Men, I shall weather this watch, my brothers and I wardens to this deteriorating dungeon.<br>
<br>
However I feel it is necessary to inform the Church of a frequenting event within this factory. While I can take comfort in my proud piousness, the more maladapted Men of this establishment have taken upon themselves other means to spur on their service. At first I had presumed to have misinterpreted the happenings of the workers, but as is always the case when it comes to matters of the Inquisition, no secret can escape our sight for long. From my vantage point within the offices I spied the elicited pocketing of endemic earnings amongst the Men I believe to be the Guards. Facilitating the exchange between product and payment, two of the Guards took it upon themselves to appropriate a share of the coinage before it was divvied to their peers. Since then there have been three more such incidents, of which my brothers and I have witnessed. <br>
<br>
For my superiors benefits I have listed the dates, times and location of each incident as well as the names of the responsible parties as follows;<br>
<br>
 1/12, 6:43 AM, Loading Bay, Price Smith, Rubi Johnson; (Looted the chest containing recent payment from supplier)<br>
7/12, 7: 35AM, Office, Cat Williams; (Embezzled funds from hidden vault)<br>
7/12, 22:57, Office, Russel Brown; (Absconded with coins from hidden vault)<br>
10/12, 13:58, Factory Floor, Robert Jones; (Pilfered gold pieces while o<i>verseeing transport of earnings)<br>
<br>
Presently, it has only been minor takings by these Men and Women, with no substantial loss for the Ten by Ten Company Holding and no subsequent diminution to the Churchocracy coffers.<br>
<br>
I have been indecisive on acting on these incidents myself however, only going as far as documenting them for the Inquisitions own records. Certainly if these thefts had led to a decline in the Churchocracy's own income, then my fellow Inquisitors and I would stamp it out with righteous fury, but for now it affects only the Cuboid chair of this factory and the rest of his freakish following. </i></span><br>
<br>
<i><i><span style="color: #b8312f">The Church would evidently agree that it is preferable for this coinage to end up in the hands of enlightened Men, rather than the cancerous claws of monstrous malfeasants? With the swelling tide of inhumanity that works within the walls, I believe God's chosen can be afforded some leniency by my superiors in the Church?<br>
<br>
For now I will continue monitoring the situation. <i><i><i>Howbeit if such acts spread to the devilish dregs of this factory, then I can promise my superiors, our wrath will be swift.</i></i></i></span></i></i><br>

'At least they seem to adore me, and my product is making a strong profit enough profit to sustain the factory for now.'<br>
<br>
A dull knock came from behind the demon, signaling someone was at the door to his office. With a deep sigh he turned and retook the affable air he had been cultivating in front of his workers since the beginning. "Please, do come in!"<br>
<br>
"Boss wanted to see Dul?" the simple-minded orc was quick to come in and quicker still to soil the carpet that Trilroxan had had put into his office with his dirty work boots.<br>
<br>
"Ah yes, I have a task for you Dul," the demon barely held himself back from coming over the desk at the orc, his smile growing slightly strained as he did. "There was an incident in the packing facility and one of the machines was covered in a dozen or so bottles worth of our soda, I wanted you to clean it up for me and make sure that the machine would still work or if I would have to replace it."<br>
<br>
"Dul do boss! Dul need to let boss know when Dul finish?" the orc saluted, flinging his arm in a wide arc and just barely missing the shelf standing next to him.<br>
<br>
"No need Dul, have one of the others inform me and you can go on break when you finish," Trilroxan was practically glaring at the orc over his smile by now, the urge to kill the simpleton growing ever more as he spoke.<br>
<br>
"Dul get on it Boss!" Finally, the orc left, leaving Trilroxan alone to glare with a mighty scowl at the footprints leading to his desk.<br>
<br>
"I swear that blasted orc is the first to die, even if I have to kill him myself," with a grumble he turned to the papers on his desk and began flicking through them. After a few moments he stopped at one in particular and let out the first genuine, if evil looking, smile of the day. "Oh you'll do nicely!"<br>
<br>
As the demon strode out of the room the papers he had been looking at shifted slightly, revealing the names and members of numerous adventuring parties, only one from among those who had journied to The Dead Lands missing. </span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'Copperplate';"><br>

    Sashi carefully applied her lipstick in front of a mirror. A human woman dressed in icy blue robes held a plate of makeup and other accouterments. Surrounding them was a dingy stone room with various green flags and decent carpets strewn about, presumably in an attempt to make the room more “lavish.” The door to the room slowly creaked open, and the hulking form of Mr. Tonne stepped through. He snorted at Sashi. “50 measly gold was all you were able to bring this quarter? I give you all my gold and this is how you repay me?” <br>
<br>
    Sashi carefully put the lipstick down on the makeup plate and stormed toward Tonne and pointed a talon at his face. “I was a queen in the mountains, pig. You said this would be easy. You didn’t tell me there was a disgusting mutant selling swill and brainwashing people.” He sighed. “You honestly didn’t expect there to be competition here? Stop paying your workers so much and you’ll bring in more money.” Sashi snarled. “It fucking SUCKS doing this job. I’ll pay them as much as I want. GET. OUT.” With that, Tonne shook his head and left. <br>
<br>
==============<br>
<br>
    It was a chilly day at the University of Spellhard. The Duster Energy Girls and Sashi were having a bad time wearing their work attire in this weather. But business required sacrifice. They were all getting ready for the first Fothoc meet and greet. Everyone was not looking forward to interacting with some of the more…obsessive fans. <br>
    The girls walked up to a center stage and gave a rousing speech about how everyone coming together on campus showed the power of friendship and magic, to a cheering crowd of unwashed bodies. It was also the perfect time for the girls to reveal their new product- Duster Energy Blazin’ Blast. Made with red mana and clams, Blazin’ Blast was a new direct competitor to Wicked Brew’s inferno drink. It was also expertly timed for the winter season. Afterwards there was a handshaking event. The intrepid Milton Friedman was there, and he creepily shook hands with Meera, much to her disdain. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)"><span style="font-size: 26px">Actions</span></span><br>
- Create Duster Energy: Blaze to compliment the cold winter months, and compete with Wicked Brew's <i>Inferno drink. <br>
- </i>Start selling and endorsing simp merch. Things like pins, stickers, shirt with the duster energy girls, posters, etc. Imagine all the stuff that monster energy brands in real life, then slap some attractive harpies on it.</div>

<i>Regi</i><br>
<br>
The season had gone by in a hurry and Regi couldn't have been happier. He had been a bundle of nerves when the first batch of their soda had gone out to the public, but they had loved it! They loved it and by some weird mental gymnastics that Regi was a bit proud of, that meant they somewhat loved him too! They enjoyed it so much he had an investor! The Dread Pirate J'Kyon. He had to admit, he was positively terrified when he had received the offer, from a rather burly man with more then his share of tattoos, after all, what could a pirate want with him? Surely she was going to shake him down! Sure, he was a wizard, but he had never been in an actual fight before and had no plans to be in one. What if she thought he had some sort of magical artifacts stowed away? But to his surprise, she had been rather polite. A bit rough around the edges, but she was probably just nervous and being around other pirates probably necessitated some level of gruff attitude to meet expectations. Regi almost felt ashamed, looking back on it now, he had been afraid of someone he had never met, purely going off their reputation, how many people had done that to him? Judged him before they knew him, judged them purely by what they saw on the surface or the rumors they heard? Regi knew what that was like and the fact he had done the same to another was disheartening. Yes, he had to be better then that. Still! He was grateful. J'Kyon offered him a ship! Of course, he had no idea how to run a ship but Nadia seemed to have been positively giddy, she could barely look him in the eye, when he told her about it. It made sense, Regi was sure the mermaid would feel more at home on the open waters then in this cramped factory. Money never meant much to him, so J'Kyon asking for ten percent meant little, so long as he could make even more soda to get to the people and could pay his employees, that was more then enough for him.<br>
<br>
The transition into the new factory, or, well, the large ship, had not been easy. The goblins and kobolds had a nasty habit of playing jokes on one another on the deck which often ended up with one, or all, of them tipping over into the ocean. Which would have been fine if any of them could figure out how to swim... So a guard had to be stationed on the deck at all times to dive in after them to save them before they drowned, a position none of the mermaids particularly enjoyed. Then there had been the 'incident'. After filling whitey's skull with holy powder, as had become a daily tradition, Aasza had thought it would be great fun to throw the skull into the ocean so when Whitey 'awoke' from his reprieve, he woke up to a world of water and a small crab that thought his left eyesocket had made a lovely home. It had taken the better part of the day for the guard to survey the ground and recover it. Naida had told him she had given Aasza a 'right thumping' for the trouble and Whitey had been given a bonus for the trouble. For some reason, it seemed like Whitey had wanted to quit or even take him to 'court' but he had refused to enter his office to talk to him about it. Most peculiar, Regi hoped the older skeleton was okay and feeling well. Heavens forbid his employees ever feel they could not approach him about anything, at anytime.<br>
<br>
Regi, himself, wasn't quite as fond of the ship. He was still grateful for it, but his new officer, the cabin, didn't give him the same view over the work floor so he couldn't watch them as much and all his employees seemed to get a bit stiff when he came around, probably just nerves from being around the boss, yeah, that was probably it and the way the ship shifted and moved with the waves made him a bit queasy and nauseous. He had to keep a constant trickle of magic flowing just to keep his breakfast down, but it was a small price to pay when he saw how happy Nadia and her people were, or the larger amounts of soda that was being shipped out each day to waiting consumers.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Profits were disappointing to say the least, albeit totaled after the necessary upgrades to the factory and search for a new ingredient to the soft drink formula, two crates, altogether a dozen bottles of Burlsi, were missing from inventory. Lifting his forehead from his beetle wood desk, with a creak in his chair the goblin beverageer stood up and peeked through the blinders covering the windows of his office for a brief moment at the 1st shift workers on the bottling floor. It was hard for him not to take the theft personally.<br>
<br>
Did one of them hate his guts? Denk wasn't overly strict, and hours here were better than any factory in the city. Pay for that labor came at a premium too for how little time they put in before going home at the end of the day, even though the rate wasn't anything special.<br>
<br>
Growing pains weren't supposed to come this early, not when the margins and budget were already tight enough as is.<br>
<br>
He'd need to address this problem best he can with what he had. And if this complication turned out to be a new player in town, well, he couldn't afford to let them take a slice of the pie for themselves when it was becoming increasingly apparent that picking up the crumbs made all the difference in this business.<br>
<br>
1) Caffeine is incorporated into Burlsi in moderate amounts, and a new Burlsi 'mini' energy drink with concentrated ingredients in a smaller bottle are introduced to appeal to hard-working and small-handed customers that are looking for hours of energy that can be swallowed in a single gulp, is easy to hold and to carry around, and comes at a convenient to pay for price that's light on the coin purse.<br>
<br>
2) Mr. Nackham, his managers, and the guards begin to look into the potential case of employee theft and/or corporate espionage, with all potential suspects being excluded from the investigation until cleared of suspicion. Until they get to the bottom of things, managers and guards are given two additional hours a day spent solely on improving security and finding out exactly what went wrong. A bonus that will effectively double their pay to 10G for the season if they achieve satisfactory results is promised to provide incentive.<br>
<br>
Employees are interviewed, details surrounding the when and where of the incident are investigated to narrow down the list of suspects, and, more clandestinely, the garbage of employees is rifled through under the guide of city trash collection services, and potential local sites for competing soft drink companies to take root are scouted out for the stolen property, and, if any rival business is determined responsible, evidence is given to local law enforcement authorities along with a well-placed bribe of 40G and a few crates of Burlsi Mini to expedite justice and confiscate any equipment of use from this would-be competitor into Mr. Nackham's possession.<br>
<br>
Otherwise, if determined to be mere workplace theft, the employee(s) responsible are given a warning and (collectively) docked 2G pay for the season to reimburse the Burlsi company.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>Status</b>​</div><br>
Burlsi: A clear carbonated drink made from (sweet and earthy) beetle bark and a moderate amount of caffeine and sugar. Transparent bottles have knobbly, tree-inspired design. Labeling displays an ent mascot, advertises the added boost of energy, and offers free Burlsi to people who return enough clean and intact bottles to the factory. 30S individually, sold in crates of six for 180S.<br>
<br>
Burlsi Mini: A clear carbonated energy drink made from (sweet and earthy) beetle bark and a high amount of caffeine and sugar. Small transparent bottles have a knobbly, tree-inspired design. Labeling displays an ent mascot, advertises it's concentrated ingredients, and offers free Burlsi Mini to people who return enough clean and intact bottles to the factory. 5S individually, sold in crates of eighteen for 90S.<br>
<br>
Pay: Workers are paid 5G a season. Bonuses of 5G are offered to management and security excluding Mr. Nackham upon a satisfactory completion of the ongoing investigation.<br>

His elven assistant gave a quick glance at the list before asking, "How are you so sure they will attend the event, Sir? These people must be very busy." <br>
<br>
"It's simple, actually. They will attend because they have no choice." Sherlock chuckled as he picked up a Fizz Cola and placed it at the center of his desk. "That, my dear Nelaeryn, is the next big thing in this nation. Something that is never seen before, already well-received by the public, and to sum it up - a big business success. Now, this is a really big and delicious pie. I happen to announce that I want to share this pie with them, so what choice do they have but to scurry before me and beg for a share?" <br>
<br>
"But what if some of them don't want a share of the pie?" Nelaeryn asked. <br>
<br>
"They're dogs for gold and money, if they see an opportunity somewhere, they will bite. And it doesn't matter, if they don't try to fight for it then their competitors will and they will be the ones to earn a profit. What kind of merchant would give up an opportunity to their competitors?" He slyly smiled.<br>
<br>
"That is very...impressive, Sir. You will definitely be the King of Sodas in the near future! I know you're very busy so I will not disturb you any longer." Nelaeryn bowed and left the office to send the invitations.<br>

Merchants and noblemen were invited to the Fizz Company for a 2-day Product Exhibition. However, the main purpose of the event was to settle distribution and manufacturing rights for Fizz Cola. Sherlock Moriarty - the company president, intends to implement a revolutionary strategy and plans to offer manufacturing and local distribution rights to merchants and noblemen</div>

Merchants and noblemen(ideally those who have manufacturing capabilities) are to bid on the manufacturing rights for their specific region. If they win the bid and are awarded the rights, they will be supplied by the Fizz Company with the concentrates and syrups needed for them to manufacture Fizz Cola.

Second Day of Product Exhibition<br>
<span style="font-size: 12px">On the second day of the product exhibition, the Fizz Company will reveal those who were awarded regional manufacturing rights.

<b>YEAR 1, TURN 3: Spring</b><br>
<br>
Mr Xexion read the most recent news reports from all of the civilized countries in the Realm of Rodaxear. He was very pleased at all of the various tidbits of information that he was coming across.<br>
<br>
So far, they all seemed to be on their way, with some companies already doing astronomically well and some getting off to a rough start, but still managing to pull through.<br>
<br>
Certainly, the ones that had the most to lose or gain were the ones that were in direct competition with each other for their clientele. Only time will truly tell who will come ahead and who will be left to rot within the annuls of history.<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px">Eridium Bubblers Co.</span></b><br>
<br>
The rival organization was being poached from their employees. Mushroom Falls as a drink was not selling nearly as well as the main brew that actually came from Eridium Bubblers Co and the fact that some of these knock off workers were being poached, certainly didn’t help their situation, though it very much helped out the Bubblers. (Increase in Sales)<br>
<br>
The Ad Campaign was working wonders. Everyone wanted a special sweater from the company and it helped out the sales. (Bonus to Local Sales) The quality was a mystery at present, but it was more about the possibility of getting free stuff.<br>
<br>
The miners absolutely loved the stuff and couldn’t seem to get enough. By proxy, their families also ended up drinking them by the dozens. It was very quickly becoming the most popular drink within the Valley.<br>
<br>

Current Net Gain for the WINTER:  372 Gold<br>

<br>
Business was booming. It wasn’t long before they managed to track down the wayward employees with the incentive of the bonus for stopping the runoff. With the hole plugged up, it helped pave the way for a greater revenue of sales as the other workers began to work extra hard to meet the demands of their employer.<br>
<br>
The caffeine proved to be a huge multiplier of sales within the city that never sleeps. It helped give that extra energy and pep in the steps of the various workers of the city. IN fact, it was quickly becoming the go to drink. It could soon overtake Coffee and Tea at this rate. (Huge Bonus to Local Sales)<br>
<br>
However, there was a major malfunction in the production line and a dozen workers were injured, bringing current production to a sudden and eerie stop. It will need to be repaired which will cost 60 Gold. And the dozen workers will be out for the season to heal up. (Decrease in Production)<br>
<br>
<br>
Current Net Gain for the Season: 100 Gold<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px">Reginald’s Private Reserve</span></b><br>
<br>
The change in location, from a single seaside to the open ocean was a big difference. For one, all of the Mermaids seemed to be even happier and the humans seemed pretty happy as well.<br>
<br>
Sales were up and the income from renting out the small factory was also very good. In fact, it seemed that all of the business from his new drink was causing others to follow them.<br>
<br>
A small flotilla of ships of various sizes were trailing behind the Factory Pirate Ship. It seemed that there was a steady following of loyal customers that were willing to do just about anything to get that next sip of the next product that comes off of the line of Reginald’s Private Reserve.<br>
<br>
Reginald, in his happiness, sent out a request for a hiring of employees and started scooping up a large amount of them, even to the detriments of his own pockets.<br>
<br>
He managed to hire 25 new Mermaid Workers, costing him 175 Gold. But Reginald wanted to make people happy, even if it hurt him in the long run. Happiness of others and their new found LOVE for him, was what mattered most.<br>
<br>
After paying his current employees for the season, it would soon become apparent that they would need to be ramping up production, which should happen with these new happy mermaids on board<br>
<br>
<br>
Current Net Gain for the Season: -70 Gold<br>

An adventuring party was hired to search for more and new ingredients to use in the soda. And they searched and searched The Dead Lands, until they came across Death Root. It tastes like sour pickles and crumbles easily unless taken with the most delicate touch.<br>

New Guards were hired, adding to the versatile faction that was developing. The people were happy at how open and accepting this company was proceeding with.<br>

The Undead community was drawing closer to Pop’n’Locks. Their slogan of By Undead and For Undead, or BUFU was becoming very popular among the fallen clans. It was starting to dig into local sales. (Decrease in Local Sales.<br>

The Board which had before only been barely tolerating the presence of the former Dragon and Board Member, became very happy indeed once the donation was received and the palms were greased.<br>
<br>
It became very easy to suddenly acquire additional space, A Small Factory expansion was added to their burgeoning operations, something that only seemed to ruffle the feathers of their direct competition, the Harpies of Duster Energy.<br>
<br>
A fanboy of Duster Energy managed to sneak past the guards and destroy 3 Crates of Soda before they managed to get away. (Decrease in Profit for next Season)<br>
<br>
Wizards from many of the different campuses came together to honor the Great Auridrex that even in some small way, he has returned to teaching. A full festival takes place on the grounds in front of the Factory space. Employees seize on this opportunity to begin selling Soda at Festival Prices and boosted company sales<br>

Blaze. It was becoming the newest craze all along the campus. Even though it seemed that overall, the drinks of Wicked Brew were more popular, they were far less to them and Blaze was being a direct hard competition against Inferno.<br>
<br>
Arguments and fights would break out over campus over which was better, Blaze or Inferno. Inferno or Blaze.<br>
<br>
The Blaze fanboys would lord their cool new merch over the Inferno lovers. As such, it was very obvious who loved Inferno and who didn’t. They became almost like Gang colors. Except that the other side didn’t have any uniformity. That gave them an edge with some of the students who wanted to belong. (Bonus to Outcast students)<br>

Fan clubs for the Harpy girls began to grow. Some even gifted the Harpies various gifts such as teddy bears, chocolates and roses.<br>

The Jade Light Powder was a true success, especially with adventurers and those on the move. This allowed them to drink the refreshing flavor of the soda with just a small amount of liquid to bring it bursting to life. It quickly spread to the adventuring community as to the portable and potable nature of the Jade Light Powder and how easy it was to acquire.<br>
<br>
The Church truly continued to take to this newfound company. The Priests and especially the Red Priests and their Inquisitors were impressed by how much the company wished to adhere to scripture with their beverage. It was truly an impressive thing and one worthy of respect for such devotion to the righteous cause.<br>
<br>
It soon was becoming available at most services, with the government acquiring large orders for the various churches of the Churchocracy. (Huge Bonus to Local Sales)<br>

5 more Inquisitors and 1 more Red Priest arrived for the extra added protection of the product. Now that this company was much more involved with the church, there would be those who might harbor ill will against it and they must not be allowed to do so.<br>

There was no denying that the Secret Soda and the Secret Cream Soda was a popular one among the common people. But it certainly seemed that their competition was ecking its way into the upper echelons of society and of church society as well.<br>
<br>
But their drink was the drink of the common people. You’d find people drinking it after work or at home at night, or even just on the street. It was easy to get ahold of and the people enjoyed the taste.<br>

Some felt that its competitor was far too “fancy” for normal drinking, especially the more and more that it became a part of the Church. (Bonus to Local Commoner sales)<br>

An incident occurred. A handful of Gelatinous Cubes escaped the building and destroyed a park before they were wrangled back inside. All of the guards responsible had been whipped and the Inquisitors performed penance involving fasting of water and drink for 3 days. (Bad Publicity, decrease sales)<br>

<br>
The chamber was dark with various lanterns full of faerie fire burned, leaving it in a purple hue. There was a large pool of roiling fluid that seems to bubble and churn while off to the side was a reinforced stand holding the immense pieces of golden armor with draconic imagery that was the armor of Auridrex. The Kobold guard captain stood before the pool looking a little nervous considering just where he was. This was the inner sanctum of the mutant dragon whom he worshiped. The Brew Cult was gaining members, to the point that all paid staff were currently part of it. The Interns had yet to be converted, but that would just be a matter of time.<br>
<br>
"Explain," demanded a gurgling voice from the pool as bubbles increased in number and vapors rose from it.<br>
<br>
"There's been a loss of product, my lord.  Some idiot student managed to slip in and destroy 3 crates..." Captain Largogo managed to sputter out as he regards the pool warily. Vast shapes shift beneath the surface. They would crest here and there for a moment only to vanish below the fluid again.<br>
<br>
"You let a student destroy 3 crates worth of product, do you know how  troublesome that is?" snarled the gurgling voice from within the pools before tenacles became more visible as a great mass of them rises up out of the fluid before Largogo. There was no face to be seen, only the roiling, shifting mass before several manage to reach out to the armor on the stand. The faceplace is seized and drawn into the mass where a seeming head seems to form agaisnt it.<br>
<br>
"We're still adjusting to the new space, my lord. The University has granted us more production space. My men can only cover so much," pleads the guard captain as he focuses upon the faceplate now.<br>
<br>
"I do not like excuses," said a more stable and controlled voice from the faceplate as the mass of tentacles exits the pool. It seize the other armor pieces and seems to flow into them, assuming a more hulking humanoid form that the enchanted armor forced it into. Auridrex sighs and flexes his 'limbs' some as he turns back to regard the guard captain with clear annoyance.<br>
<br>
"Its true though and those Duster idiots are like a mob. I need more guards if I'm gonna keep this place safe, my lord." Largogo manages to look resolute before the hulking mutant that thudded towards him. The once great golden dragon now more just a mad mutant... yet he was powerful. He had survived becoming this, so it was that the Brew Cult worshiped him utterly.<br>
<br>
"I should just eat you for your failure. But no... I think I will grant you your request. The increased guard staff should be able to fix this issue. Nothing must jeopardize our new larger scale production. Is that understood?" Auridrex demanded as he walks past the minion and pulls a lever.  The pool of burbling chemicals starts to drain and water flows in to wash it all away.<br>
<br>
"Of course, my lord. I will not let you down!" Largogo declared and thumped his chest.<br>
<br>
"I'm sure you won't... or you'll be my  latest meal," Auridrex said with a monstrous growl. "Even now  our profits have to be shifted. I must  encourage the University to support us more. Their knowledge and resources are our greatest weapon. Someday I may even be restored to the Board, yessss."<br>
<br>
"They would be fools to deny your return, my lord!" Largogo agreed with a nod.<br>
<br>
"Of course they would. But they must be eased into it. The more Wicked Brew can succeed, the more I can assert power over the University. However, I have new orders for you. The next  saboteur you capture.... disappear them. I want them for experimentation. Wicked Brew must explore the deepest depths of flavor and experience. A test subject would be perfect," Auridrex said with dark delight as he strokes his faceplate in thought. "You may go. I have another letter to  pen and funds to dispense. I expect results, captain, or you will become the test subject I seek."<br>
<br>
Largogo flees the inner sanctum rapidly as Auridrex just chuckels to himself. He moves to find quill and pen again, so much to do as the aspiring master of his own cult and business. The Brew Cult would have to spread but for the moment, their security and resource needs were far more important. Profits had to be maintained... and the University needed to be enticed to greater levels of support for his plans.<br>
<br>
Actions<br>
1. Auridrex will 'donate' 100 gold to the University, requesting their consultation and assistance in finding new ingredients to expand the flavor range of Wicked Brew. Research into advancing in their current resources would also be appreciated if the company is to continue its efforts to support 'academic achievements' with what funds it can spare. (100 Gold)<br>

<i><span style="color: #000000">It was bloody easy to blame the other 'Gaards' for the 'axident' with the Cubes. Those sanctipotamus smellfungus are so quick to stick anytin bad on the sin skins, hehe. Meself, I got no problem with em, their gulds just as shiny as any man's but when you live outside the law in Oupital it pays to have an ever-reddy patsy. Luckily for us, that meens every other thing under the sun.<br>
<br>
 It's like Price told the Inquizzors "Everytin was rite as rain until the Sin Skins showed" and CRACK goes the whip on everywon but us. Yet it was us that gone done it ya see, in no small part tanks to me and me lockpick. Yet do dey tank me? <br>
<br>
Nope!<br>
<br>
Dey just nagged me all day instead.</span></i><br>

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)"><i>"Jones, make sure to leave the loading bay unlocked."<br>
"Bob, are you sure you left the loading bay unlocked.<br>
"Robert, is the loading bay..."<br>
<br>
For the upteenth time yes! I bloody rote it down like they told me so i wouldn't forget, so stop hassling me! Gah!<br>
<br>
I rite everything down like dey told me so show's me a little respect. We've been running together since we was nee high so you'd think dey could trust me just a smidge.</i></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #000000"><i>It's a shame dough those Cubes didn't manage to grab some sin skins while they were loose, or a priest or two to bring in some new flavores. Price said we need to xpand soon or we'll get left behind. My mate Keith saids it ain't all bad news owever. With the Cubes smashing up the park dey probably worked up an appetight, not to menshun had a taste of the outside world so dey probably are absolootly gagging to get there hands on summin he rekons. <br>
<br>
I agrees.<br>
<br>
'Cleening' up after these Cubes for so long, I've started to get a feel for em. And they look to me to be ungry. Best stay out of the curridors for a while.<br>
<br>
They say we need to destroy any evidents but best to keep this so i don't forget. <br>
<br>
Don't want to be nagged again. <br>
<br>
Or dead...<br>
<br>
I'll rite it on the back.</i></span>​</div></span><div class="bbcode-print-bottom-tear"></div></div><br>

Trilroxan paced within his office, glaring out at the factory floor as he did so. With a deep sigh he stopped at his desk and poured himself a fair-sized glass of strong liquor, taking a long drink from it as soon he did. "Profits cannot remain this low, especially not if I want to take over this blasted realm and show those imbecilic bastards that I am worth far more than they are."<br>
<br>
A loud knocking came from the demon's door, nearly causing him to spill his drink. Cursing, he quickly schooled himself back into the false persona that he had taken during the business hours and smiled at the door and called out for whoever it was to enter.<br>
<br>
"Got the results back from our adventure boss man, found something we are calling Death Root. Tastes like a pickle but crumbles at the barest touch so be careful," the leader of the party that the demon had hired entered and wasted no time giving his report, making him tense slightly in surprise. "Brought enough back to last you a bit and gave a couple of your guards a map to where we found it to get more as requested."<br>
<br>
"Ah yes, thank you kindly good sir!" Trilroxan smiled at the man, eager to begin his tests to determine what to do with this 'Death Root'. "Would you have anything else to report or is that all?"<br>
<br>
"Aye, thats all. Ever want to hire us again feel free, but next time we won't be coming so cheap!" The man was quick to leave, laughing the whole way.<br>
<br>
'He is the first to die then, no one will be so arrogant to me when I take control,' the demon glared at the closed door, sighing after a few moments and reaching out to take a sample of his new ingredient. 'Bastard! He didn't warn me it would be this sour!'  </span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'Copperplate';"><br>

<i><i>Nadia</i></i><br>
<br>
Things were escalating at a frightening pace and the normally strong willed Mermaid couldn't help but feel a bit left out and vulnerable. J'Kyon seemed to have 'joined' up with the boss, even giving him one of her nicer ships to serve as a factory and flagship and now a small armada of ships was springing up around them, filled with crazy Pearl addicts willing to do the bosses bidding if it got them another sip of it. More and more mermaids flocked to him, to gain work, to be close to the sea, to... Nadia wasn't sure what was happening. What was the end game? Was the boss trying to become a pirate warlord? Trying to amass a grand fleet and power using the power of the 'Holy Powder' rather then coin? Was he seeking to couple this with an army of mermaids to ensure the domination of the sea was complete? Or was all of it just smoke and mirrors? A distraction or perhaps a means to some greater, more evil, end that she cannot even begin to understand?<br>
<br>
Nadia cast her bright eyes out across the horizon as the salty air washed over her and she breathed it in deep, trying to call upon the sea to calm her nerves... What had she gotten herself into? She prided herself as a fighter, as strong and knowing what to do and when, but... Should she leave? Run away from this building nightmare or did she stick it out and see where the path led? Either she'd be rich or dead at the end of this, and she wasn't even sure if it would be a good death or dying to some insane experiment of the boss. She tucked a lock of her dark hair up and behind her ear as she mulled it over. Could she even leave now? What if he took her leaving as a sign of weakness and made an example of her to the others? He always seemed to 'happy' when more and more people flocked to his banner, what would he do when people started to leave? <br>
<br>
No, she would see it out, at least for now. But they would need more guards, she'd need people she could trust, people that she could rely on, at least, until they too became attached to Minosa Pearl and started to be drawn into whatever collective madness this was... "I need a raise." <br>

			<div class="bbCodeBlock-content">Another exhibition was conducted for regional distribution rights for Fizz Cola but this time the company has more leverage to raise the bidding price and it is expected for it to be fiercer due to the performance of the last season. <br>
<br>
It was well received by the retailers and generated massive profits as seen by the report publicized by Sherlock Moriarty. However, there is a gap in the distribution network and whoever grasps regional distribution/manufacturing rights is expected to have massive profits. <br>
<br>
Sherlock Moriarty also wishes, with the help of the nobleman Henry Dangers, to connect with the Human Councilor, Holly Silverson. Sherlock hopes for the councilor to support the Fizz Company. As an incentive, Sherlock offers to directly reward Holly with one of the regional distribution rights, directly skipping the bidding process with other merchants. He also floated the idea of the Fizz Company possibly sponsoring Holly in the next Council election. <br>

<b><i>YEAR 1, TURN 4: Summer</i></b><br>
<br>
Mr Xexion read the most recent news reports from all of the civilized countries in the Realm of Rodaxear. He was very pleased at all of the various tidbits of information that he was coming across.<br>
<br>
Things were going well. Some companies were completely gaining control of the industries in their regions, while others were now under fierce competition with their immediate rivals.<br>
<br>
Would they crush their enemies? Or would they instead form an uneasy normalcy of competition. He chuckled at the endless possibilities.<br>
<br>
Though what got his attention was in fact two companies. The Fizz Company for how well they are dominating not only the industry, but also for how well they seem to be gaining control of the government. And Reginald’s Private Reserve for how they are beginning to gain a supremacy on the waters, which should help him crush the competition just through piracy.<br>
<br>
So deliciously delightful. This Venture was quickly becoming his favorite thing.<br>

<br>
The soda machines were selling almost so fast that it was hard to keep up on refilling them. But that was indeed why it was important that they began to hire a substantial amount of new employees for their company. It would help them grow and expand and to multiply their sales at an almost rate of pure ecstasy. <br>
<br>
At least, that had been the plan. A Giant group of Bandits not only heavily damaged the production line, but then set up road blocks in order to keep the goods trapped within the nearby town. If this wouldn't be taken care of, it could seriously hurt sales.<br>
<br>
The Notorious Bandit King has set up shop with 30 Bandits and 1 Ballista.<br>
<br>
The ADventuring Parties managed to get ahold of some Verdant Root (Tastes Spicy when ground up) and D’oox Flowers (Add a bitter, but robust taste).<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>Reginald’s Private Reserve</u></span></b><br>
<br>
More Guards were hired in order to give better protection. Not a bad idea considering that not only were they now amongst the waves, but that a fair share of those around them were pirates or pirate sympathizers.<br>
<br>
Was this dangerous and mysterious mage turning Pirate? Was he trying to conquer the seas? Was he going to raid coastal city after coastal city?<br>
<br>
These were the thoughts that wandered through the minds of those that knew of the massive fleet that lingered about. It worried them. It was said that the many mermaids that were part of the crews of these vessels were bathed in daubarchy and lived a hard life of crime. In fact, these rumors caused some coastal cities to begin souping up their own defensive fleets in order to have an answer, just in case they were as rowdy as they were believed to be.(Decrease Sales from other countries)<br>
<br>
Those that were not as affected by these dirty and dangerous rumors, were instead welcoming of the Brand Ambassadors that were sent to them. (Gain bonus to sales in the Council of Griihass and the University of SpellHard)<br>

Death Root, it seems that when mixed with Pure White Berries and Earthen Mound, can be a powerful poison that will kill someone within a matter of hours. It has no known cure. But gathering all three ingredients in the past, has proven difficult by poisonmakers.<br>
<br>
The Extended Youth Advertisements have had their effect. The people began buying even more under their banner. It even seemed to bring more undead along for the ride, even though the overall advertisements didn’t have too much to work with. But isn’t that what advertisements truly are for? (Increase in Local Sales)<br>

New Ingredients within the Churchocracy, that is what the adventuring parties were to find. And find them they did. They managed to find two new ingredients, Fungus Gungus (Tastes a bit fruity and sweet) and Finnigan’s Grapes (Strangely Sour and Tart).<br>
<br>
The marketing research helped make sure that the company was better able to to tailor drinks and selling styles to those that live within the Churchocracy better. The people and church officials seem far easier to manipulate within this research than one would have thought. Perhaps it goes hand in hand with their extreme devotion to their way of life above all others and with it, the supremacy of humanity. (Increase local sales greatly)<br>

Any that were foolish enough to try to breach the walls of the 10 by 10 Company, did not make it out. Soon enough, the stories began to spread. Some believed it was demons and darkness (Though those were very quickly shot down by the church and the Red Robes), some believed that they became part of the working staff one way or the other and other still believed that it was those dangerous cubes that ran amok that are in fact killing those who dare to enter the walls of the factory uninvited and especially after hours. (Huge Deterrent to thieves and spies.)<br>
<br>
The people, however, still managed to have a love for the drink themselves, though ones that knew, preferred to not think about things such as the conditions of the interior of the factory. A place of danger and unsanitary darkness. But still, a place that has produced great and delicious things.<br>

I lay still in my cot and stare at the ceiling, the notion of sleep the furthest thing from my mind, as I know, the moment I close my eyes, I will see that damning yellow gaze upon me.</b></span></span></i><br>
<span style="font-size: 26px"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)"><b><i><br>
By putting quill to parchment I hope to expunge this turmoil from my mind. And my soul.<br>
<br>
Hours ago, I walked these halls as usual, picketing the factory for any and all misdemeanours but all was quiet this eve. This was not unusual, for most gather on the factory floor to go about their pitiable profession, leaving the corridors to my fellow brothers and the 'Guards'. I should perhaps have realised something was off, with the plaintive protectors more riotous as of late, however it was strangely silent as I underwent my patrol.<br>
<br>
As I turned past the Locker Room, an incongruous sight caught my eye, the faintest glimmer of lights like fireflies at dusk. Intrigued, I rounded the corner only to be set upon by a most ungodly vision as before me hovered a ghoulish goblin in the middle of the hall, it's tiny claws pointing upwards as if towards the heavens. With momentary disbelief, I looked at the sight before me as golden lights glimmered and danced around the creature, circling it like a halo as it levitated in the air. My knees wavered for only a moment as I stared at the vision, until the sight of bubbles caught my attention. Watching as the Goblin tried gasping for air, my gaze caught his, and I realised what I was witnessing.<br>
<br>
I have met the Master of this lot, the effervescent evil that stalks these corridors, it's blasphemous build glued to each and every wall of this walkway as it turns on it's compatriots.<br>
<br>
 The Goblin's eyes shifted from side to side as the rest of him remained frozen within, his godless gaze falling up me. The abject terror the creature felt was easily apparent, it's eyes screaming for help as its body sizzled and burned away from within. I lament for the previous occupants of this establishment as I know what I now see surely befell them too, as the unwashed unfortunate before me both drowns and burns in the slowest agony. With every shift and undulations of the Cube, I see the Goblin wince as it little bit of it melts away as the vast fortune the Cube carries becomes a sheet of silver and gold at its feet as it waits between the walls. </i></b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)"><b><i>I raised my staff in defiance of the beast, and for a moment I saw hope in the Goblin eyes. But I was hastily reminded of my teachings and the Tenets of this Land, and so I lowered my staff and simply walked away.<br>
<br>
I detest myself for my lack of conviction, as I afforded the creature one last look, a pitying glance for the luckless thing only for it's damning yellow gaze to be seared within me as I left it to it's fate.<br>
<br>
I shall seek council with my brothers tomorrow on what I have witnessed but my putting this to paper, I hope to have at least afforded myself the opportunity to sleep...<br>

"And be sure to get to Mano Y Mano's as quick as you can, I want their production crippled."<br>
<br>
"Aye aye boss, but I better be getting paid some proper good wages for this! I don't like this sneaky stuff you are having me do, I prefer to be loud and proud about it!" the orc grinned wildly, fingering the knife hidden on his side.<br>
<br>
"You will be paid more than my usual guards, that is something which I will confirm for you. Succeed in your task and I will see to it that a bonus is received, but fail and, well, I won't have to worry about it anymore now, will I?" the demon smiled, taking a seat at his desk and pouring a glass of brandy for himself. "Now go, I will attempt to contact you within the month to ensure your survival."<br>
<br>
The orc left, grumbling about annoying bosses and what he wished he could do with them, all the while not knowing that Trilroxan heard every word and was doing his utmost to not unleash his full strength to annihilate the mouthy bastard. With a deep sigh he restrained himself once more and drained his glass, pouring another afterwards and stepping up to his overview window. Only something like nine months within this realm and he had accomplished far more than he had ever expected to, although he would need to find an illusionist or an enchanter to create him an object to conceal his true form eventually. It wouldn't do to allow his workers to wonder why he wasn't having his curse broken now that they were beginning to make a larger profit, even if he was taking a smaller wage than them.<br>
<br>
"Cheers gentlemen and women, for you are supporting me in my takeover far too readily," the demon drained his glass once more before setting it down and turning back to his paperwork, picking up the new soda proposed by his brewers and smiling. </span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'Copperplate';"><br>

<i>Regi</i><br>
<br>
As Regi gazed out across the railing to the open water and the numerous ships that trailed in the wake of his own and took it all in, it was almost too much. There were so many people willing to follow him, and in some small way, love him that it was overwhelming. How did he go from having no one to having so many? Yet he couldn't shake the feeling that he was just as isolated as before, if not even more so. While the crew still played and pranked one another, including the Mermaids taking particularly pleasure in 'Mammal tipping' where they wait until they are close to the rail and knock them into the ocean. But whenever Regi came around, the games and talk stopped as if they were all afraid of gaining his attention. Were they now afraid that if they did anything around him they would make him no longer like them? Was there such a thing as <i>too </i>popular? Was this some infernal curse from above? The harder he tried to escape the isolation, the more isolated he became? Regi leaned against the rail as pain shot up his malformed leg, there had to be a way to change that. There had to be. <br>

<b>YEAR 2, TURN 5: Fall</b><br>
<br>
Mr Xexion read the most recent news reports from all of the civilized countries in the Realm of Rodaxear. He was very pleased at all of the various tidbits of information that he was coming across.<br>
<br>
Things were going well as the ventures of the Soda Wars were turning into their second year of business. It was a glorious thing that it had not only managed to keep going, but also that they have been thriving into a second year of adventure in the industry.<br>
<br>
Some had taken to this much better than others, but already, major footholds have been set up and footholds have been placed. Only time will tell if other companies will breach these barriers that have been set up<br>

The Bandit King was intrigued by the offer and joined the company in exchange for 600 Gold from the coffers. The Bandit King and his forces are now assets of the Company's defenses against any outward attacks from competitors or those that would do the company harm.<br>
<br>
The new flavored soda with Verdant Root and D’oox Flowers were a big success. With these new flavors, the entire region have become fanatics for the Eridium Bubblers Co and their products. It would be difficult for another company to encroach in on their lands to make a profit.<br>

<br>
Mermaid’s kiss was especially popular with actual mermaids. More so than anyone else. The population of mermaids were becoming infatuated with Reginald and his posse. IN fact, Reginald had acquired a bunch of mermaid groupies that seemed to want to spend all of their time with him, to the detriment of getting any work done whatsoever.<br>
<br>
J’Konn and her pirates trained those of Reginald’s Private Reserve so that they could not only sail the ships with ease, but that they could also defend themselves on the open seas.<br>
<br>
The Drinks have begun to “Invade” all open ports. The people who have ingested the drinks can’t seem to get enough. The flavors and the ecstasy that they bring seem to double repeat customers. SOme people from more conservative lands are being scared away. But numbers don’t lie. The money is rolling in despite setbacks.<br>

<span style="font-family: 'Petit Formal Script';"><br>
<div style="text-align: center"><i><span style="color: #000000">First and foremost, let it be known that it is with the greatest appreciation that I, Ethlando Omabanise, Alumni and Headmaster of the University of Canbridge, and the other premier Masters of Schooling, receive this chance to represent the Ten by Ten Companies renowned Secret Soda. <br>
<br>
. While it has often been said that those who can't do, teach, (a rather derogatory and vexing slur for most proud educators such as I), I would like to think that our band of merry mentors has done some good in disparaging this unbecoming statement. It was only last year, that we vanquished an influx of Gigas Rattus in the farmlands of the Dead Lands, with the inspired introduction of Volans Serpentes by my esteemed colleague and brother in arms Grindle Brawnbrain. <br>
<br>
With rumours abounding of scaled leviathans now besieging the luckless farmstead of which <i>I can only presume to be Dragons, my party and I plan to head out soon to lend them our aid once again. But only a</i>fter our tour of your marvellous facilities and potential sponsorship of course... <br>
<br>
I do not mention this to sway your choice of candidacy, that would be most unbecoming of one in my admired position, but if the 'Masters of Schooling' were indeed successful (as I'm a sure we will be) it could prove a boon to both parties. Perhaps more so, if my former student, the Galant Wizard F'ull Veem, was to visit me as he has done so on many an occasion, inquiring from me my reputable knowledge as he writes another of his famous works...  Perhaps on the defeat of a Dragon by a party of impressive intellectuals with the help of a Secret brew....<br>
<br>
This is merely food for thought, as again I would not dream to influence you choice of endorsement. Already, I surmise, your business has been approached with adventurers of great fame and veterenacy, al of who seek to champion your cause. Honourable Men and Women of all Races,  who have undoubtedly graced the halls of my colleagues prestigious colleges and my own University, bequeathing to them our illustrious knowledge and wisdom. With nearly half a millennium of life experience between my fellow Heads and I, these admirable adventurers would surely attest to our roles in making them the people they are today.<br>
<br>
Well, I think I have stated the Master of Schooling's merits quite eloquently so I shall wrap up here. I am sure your Company is quite busy and I too have classes to teach (<i>As my deputy headmaster and shield bearer often proclaims "It's time to make like a White Cloudy Minosa Minnow and get Schooled...") </i>so for now I will bid you good day. My address is on the envelope if you would like to contact me personally for further interview, or even business matters. I have a vast range of academic knowledge so I am sure I can prove helpful in any regard...</span></i>​</div></span><div class="bbcode-print-bottom-tear"></div></div><br>

Auridex examined the ledgers feeling a thrill as the influx of gold into the coffers of his expanding soda cult. The money made his draconic nature shudder in deep delight but there was  the greater intent of expanding the brand. More members were joining the Brew Cult, including some of the Interns finally. He'd been patient with them, coaxing them into the deeper layers of the group while treating them as his students. He was never one to waste good potential and these student represented that. Those who graduated would leave here, hopefully as Brew Cult members to spread his word and influence.<br>
<br>
What matters now is the God Weed being probed and developed into a whole new flavor line. From it could spring others considering the potential. High quality product continued to be the name of the game. His improved security so far was working but he had to be sure to continue to build up the influx of funds. His true plans could only succeed with continued investment which means he could not hoard the gold he was gathering.<br>
<br>
With that thought in mind, Auridrex moves to put in orders for ritual materials. He was going to give a good welcome to the new Paid Interns. A reward for a year of loyal service. More would have to be inducted in the coming season, but this would show that Wicked Brew rewarded loyalty to its Interns.​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center">Actions<br>

<i>Regi</i><br>
<br>
Never in his life would Regi have thought he'd face a problem with his new found status. It wasn't even a problem he thought would exist... People didn't want to talk to <i>him</i>. People, especially Mermaids, liked his work, his creations, what he was doing, but it was almost the 'idea' of what he possibly was or stood for had vastly outgrown who he was. The very idea of talking to any of the people that eagerly awaited his arrival at the port, or who would wait outside his room, made his heart thud in his chest and resulted in many sleepless nights. Regi was just Regi, anyone seeing past whatever they've built up in their mind would be met only with crushing disappointment, as surrounded by people as he was, Regi felt even more alone then he had at the start.<br>
<br>
Perhaps it was a similar experience that others had? He heard only bad things about J'Kyon and had been nervous to meet her, but the Dread Pirate had been very polite and he had enjoyed their meeting. Perhaps all people under the view of the public struggled with the perception of who they were and who they truly were. Why was socializing so complicated? Why were people so complicated? Still, if J'Kyon had been pleasant, maybe all he had to do was meet other people under the eye of the public? Maybe kindred spirits would spark the fires of friendship? It seemed possible and Regi was not afraid to try, he was only afraid to live alone with the regret of an attempt never made.<br>
<br>
So with a shaking hand, he penned a message on magical paper to be sent to the mermaid people, perhaps, with his popularity among them, he could meet their leaders and create something from it? A supplier? A new, untapped, market? More workers and guards? Something else entirely? Or, dare he hope, a friend. <br>

     Dr. Alexo placed his head on the desk, running his hand through his hair. This class was frustrating. Nobody had studied for the last exam and the class average was in the low 40s. He raised his head after an uncomfortable silence permeated the room. “I have never been more disappointed in this class than I have been today. Thaumaturgy 301 is where boys become men. What happened?” He continued this rant for some time, and the class filtered out. <br>
<br>
    Then his next class filtered in. A young man wearing a letterman jacket smirked at Dr. Alexo on his way in. “Well Biff,” Dr. Alexo said in a low voice. “I’m quite impressed with your test score.” Biff chuckled. “What can I say? The boys and I always take that W.” <br>
<br>
    This class was a stark contrast to the old one. The average was in the high 80s. And what’s worse is that this class was full of slackers and frat boys. Alexo scanned the sea of pupils and saw a lot of…strange merchandise. People used to wear nice polos and khakis. Now everyone was wearing merchandise with cute harpie girls on it. What was the meaning of this? <br>

<br>
Smoke, a gentle breeze, cold air; mixed signals rang in the air. Flames flooding from men. Not from their mouths, but strange pipes connected to metal barrels. As the eyes could muster, the smoke faded into nothing and crude paintings of ruined structures replaced the verdant forests, the idyllic lakes, everything... Paintings, oh how many wish that to be true. Worlds fade and die, but unlike the old in bed, worlds die in violent outbursts. And many worlds he has seen. Many worlds come and go. And so much go with them. The rings of gunfire, as Siu knew them as, clenched body, dirt, and else with little regard. Silence among the dead as they become casted to oblivion. Oh they believe in the Afterlife, but he never saw such things. Only souls used as batteries in service to the horrors of the In-Between. No rest, no existence after death.<br>
<br>
Fire, salt, mortar shells; they felt familiar. More than this magic and lich nonsense. At least some ancient part of Siu seemed to agree with that, but the eldrazi modern version knew better. Nothing was nonsense when reality was quite a suggestion. <br>
<br>
Grenades, torn limbs, screams of the dying begging for it not to be so. Collapsing trenches, poisonous gases, tank blasts, rpg blasts; nothing was spared from use. And not a damn soul knew why, and that was to be expected. Wars were not like those of the tribes. Impersonal to anyone beyond leadership. Was it suppose to be? No, but no one bothered to recognize their individuality. <br>
<br>
The Human in Siu did, but it was too late. That time. Maybe it could come back in time to stop the eldrazi predisposed on his "master's" path in its plans. Maybe it doubted as well. Maybe it was scared. Of what has happened to Siu. The fractures, the different parts. The madness. One madness no one wanted, even the dealers themselves. Maybe that was the greatest tragedy of all. To die divided and incomplete. Was he an individual?<br>
<br>
Yes, memories remain. Was he asleep? This a dream? Oh no, it wasn't. And the stakes were high. While not quite strong enough to dominate the eldrazi scions under his control. He was strong enough to compensate them. And there was a matter of time before the first was achieved. The Holocaust happened every Tuesday in the multiverse, and the eldrazi wished to spread it to this unassuming world. Despite its slow start, Siu could feel its plans and intentions. He had not much time. So many will be batteries to it. And if he sleeps too long, he will awaken to ruin.<br>
<br>
But, even when he does, will he agree with it? Everyone has their doubts...<br>

<br>
Mr Xexion read the most recent news reports from all of the civilized countries in the Realm of Rodaxear. He was very pleased at all of the various tidbits of information that he was coming across.<br>
<br>
Things were going well as the ventures of the Soda Wars as things were heating up within the Churchocracy and on the School grounds. Who would have thought that it would already have gotten to that point. <br>
<br>
It was glorious.<br>
<br>
And that one group that was taking up the sea routes, traveling around, gaining an advantage there. Even allying with Pirates.<br>
<br>
Oooh. Such exciting stuff all around. He continued to watch eagerly and with great vigor.<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>Reginald’s Private Reserve</u></span></b><br>
<br>
The Mermaid Royalty had already heard much of Reginald even before he approached for an audience. They had heard both the good and the bad. But the good outweighed what bad there was. Especially as it soon enough became quite clear that most of the bad was merely exaggerated or completely made up fabrication from out of the blue jealousy or unfounded fear.<br>
<br>
Queen Harmony and King Jorah Heartsong of the Mermaid Undersea Kingdom had agreed to meet with Reginald on a small island in the waters in between kingdoms. Safety had been paramount. But even after a short conversation, they were brought to ease.<br>
<br>
Reginald had been a huge provider of jobs for mermaids of all stripes above the waters, something that had not been as accepted in other places in such large numbers before. The King and Queen were willing to become his patrons. They would supply 150 Gold every season.<br>
<br>
Mimosa Delight as a new product began selling well not only in Minosa, but also Valley Gorge and the University, making headway into both of those locations.<br>

<br>
The Large factory was a huge investment, but one that would bring greater boons over the course of the company’s lifetime. It already was reaching greater dividends as it started to encroach on 10 by 10 Lands, poaching some sales due to their even greater availability.<br>
<br>
The celebration over the high sales of the first year, combined with the preparations for the beginning of Year 2 of the Company, had everyone working with more and more production values and greater output than ever before.<br>
<br>
A secret Government task force approaches the head of the company that there is threat of internal sabotage from the Company in the Council of Grihaas.<br>
<br>
Net Gain: 334<br>

The NPC Class Adventuring Party had a great time with the tour and stayed on as per an agreement. It was a very educational time for the party and they wished to continue to learn more. IN their tour, they actually managed to discover a secret ingredient that was growing within the factory. Fungal Berries. They have an almost sickeningly sweet taste and as such, you need to just use one Berry per drink to gain an effective level of sweetness.<br>
<br>
The new workers were hired and thoroughly screened to have loyalty and to be effective in the course of their job.<br>
<br>
An underground movement of “lesser races” have begun to imbibe in the drinks of the 10 by 10 in secret Speakeasies. You have the opportunity to Aid them or Rat them out to the Guards.<br>

Dear Diary,<br>
<br>
Feeling a little lonely today...<br>
<br>
Price has gone off to meet a contact, taking everyone but me and Cat (Ughh! She is so high and mighty. I HATE HER!!!) on his 'important' mission. <span style="font-size: 22px">: (</span><br>
<br>
But what's more important than our relationship huh? He never takes me anywhere anymore, just keeps me trapped here like some fabulous trophy. I know he's got big ideas, and a mind like a razorblade..., not to mention beautiful blue eyes, a handsome cleft chin, and arms like a python...aaahhh.... I could just bury myself in those huge.... <br>
<br>
Deep breathes Rubi. Your mad at him remember <span style="font-size: 22px">&gt;_&lt;</span> ....<br>
<br>
...........<br>
<br>
'Ahem'<br>
.......<br>
<br>
Sorry bout that, where was I...? Oh yeah!<br>
<br>
We used to go everywhere together; swimming with the Hippocampus at Mimosa and carriage rides by moonlight through the streets of Grihaas. We even murdered that teacher at Spellhard together! (though I think he teaches in the Deadlands now... Go figure <span style="font-size: 22px">¯\_(ツ)_/¯)</span>. But does he take me for drinks at the secret speakeasy..? Nope<span style="font-size: 22px"> : ( : ( : (</span><br>
<br>
He keeps me here to act as a distraction for the cocking hens of the Church. Of course I can't blame him, I am certainly pretty <span style="font-size: 22px"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/media/emoticon5-heart.23727/full?d=1488657999" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt="<3" title="heart    <3" data-shortname="<3"> :-* <img src="https://www.rpnation.com/media/emoticon5-heart.23727/full?d=1488657999" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt="<3" title="heart    <3" data-shortname="<3"></span><br>
<br>
You should see the looks I'm getting lately from the Priests, and the Sin Skins, oh la la. I'm pretty sure even the Cubes have been eyeing me up lately, with their hungry eyes (But who can tell huh? LOL <span style="font-size: 22px">: D : D</span>)<br>
<br>
Of course my heart belongs to Price but no harm in making him a little jealous tehe<span style="font-size: 22px"> ; )</span><br>
<br>
TBF Price did say I was the most beautiful Bandit in all of the Land before he left...<br>
<br>
.......<br>
<br>
Aahh! I can't stay mad at him <span style="font-size: 22px"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/media/emoticon5-heart.23727/full?d=1488657999" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt="<3" title="heart    <3" data-shortname="<3"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/media/emoticon5-heart.23727/full?d=1488657999" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt="<3" title="heart    <3" data-shortname="<3"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/media/emoticon5-heart.23727/full?d=1488657999" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt="<3" title="heart    <3" data-shortname="<3"></span>. The Asshole <span style="font-size: 22px">: P</span> <br>
<br>
Speaking of the Cubes; they've seemed to have developed a taste for Goblins lately (I'm pretty sure that two (?) have gone missing, though no one seems to have noticed. Or maybe they just don't care LOL). Guess it likes picking on the weak (reminds me of my ex <span style="font-size: 22px">: P</span><span style="font-size: 15px">. Especially now, when one of em has grabbed up one of the Nerds</span>). Maybe that's why the Company is ramping up production on that new campaign....<br>
<br>
Meh. I don't really care tbh, this is Price's long con not mine. I'm just happy he chose me to come along for the ride. <img src="https://www.rpnation.com/media/emoticon5-heart.23727/full?d=1488657999" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt="<3" title="heart    <3" data-shortname="<3"><br>

Auridrex looks quite pleased with the results of  initial Ascension Ritual, inducting two interns into Paid Internship seems to have shown that ongoing loyalty and work has paid off. A valuable lesson for this considering the need to maintain a devoted workforce of his interns. It was also important for accelerating things for conversion of his employee base into members of the Brew Cult. The bigger issue now was going to be trying to spread the cult beyond the innards of Wicked Brew. He needed to entice University staff into the cult as well if he was going to assert more influence over it.<br>
<br>
"So many potential points of contact, if I play this correctly," Auridex mused as he regards a map of the University holdings. Duster Energy was competition but he was willing to tolerate that struggle to allow a feeling of competition. What concerned him were these mermaid drinks coming in. He would have to investigate that situation more closely in the coming seasons. Right now, the cult was to commence its next array of Ascensions for more paid interns. It would tap their resources more but also bind them into the company more. It was a long term game he had set in motion that would create some spectacular results.<br>
<br>
"All one needs... is the patience of a dragon," Auridrex mused to himself a bit darkly and started to laugh as he moved on to commence one of his lectures of his adoring interns.​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center"><b>Actions</b><br>

Nadia was still riding high off the events of earlier. She had met the King and Queen. She had met the fucking <i>King and Queen.</i> She was a no one, a small time cut purse from Minosa who helped her fellows lure drunk sailors into the alleyways to rob them blind, who took a job working at a 'soda' factory because she needed a place to lie low for awhile, and there she was, standing feet away from royalty. It was hard to imagine it... As 'Head of the Guard', she was someone now, but even still, she couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong.<br>
<br>
Reginald had seemed almost sad when they left, was sad the right word? It was hard to tell with the creepy mask he insisted on wearing, but he had seemed alone. Destitute. Almost more sad and alone upon leaving that island then he had been going on it. Perhaps he had wanted something else, something more, something that she did not understand. Perhaps dominion over the sea? A laughable goal if that was it. Perhaps it was some other nefarious deed that was beyond the comprehension of the sane?<br>
<br>
Yet even as she thought such things, she couldn't help but feel the smallest of pangs in her heart at his thin silhouette against the setting sun.<br>

 Biff and Regina smiled at one another. Sashi wanted to take down Wicked Brew. She was a terribly jealous and violent woman and wanted her sole competitor to be run into the ground. Fortunately for Biff and Regina, she was also somewhat honest and straightforward. Homecoming was fast approaching.

<b>YEAR 2, TURN 7: Spring</b><br>
<br>
Mr Xexion read the most recent news reports from all of the civilized countries in the Realm of Rodaxear. He was very pleased at all of the various tidbits of information that he was coming across.<br>

<br>
It was something that would be an interesting development, no matter what.<br>
<br>
And he would follow with renewed vigor.<br>

Valley Gorge was rife for the pickings as sales had slowed down in recent months for the local flavor. The company had extended its reach throughout the Valley, but this new flavor from RPR, why, that was just the little pick me up that the miners needed.<br>
<br>
At first, many had been against the idea as they had started to take Eridium towards their own national identity. But hooo booy. If those new flavors didn’t just take you in, through you a party in your mouth and then spit you out.<br>
<br>
It was taking the valley by storm.<br>
<br>
Even the nearby Great Bandit Lord Holgrim wanted in. An Orc Warlord that stood 8 feet tall, wore an eye patch on his left eye and had a barbed club for a Right Hand. He’d protect the RPR profits for a 5% cut from the region. <br>

The people were saddened at the restrictions placed on their favorite drinks. However, there were many that praised the responsible nature of the company. It was one that had their best nature looking out for their safety and well being. And as such, it was one that they could place their trust and more importantly for the company, their money into.<br>
<br>
The sales began to encroach on both the lands of Minosa and Valley Gorge. Both of which had either been in or were beginning to fall under the purview of Reginald’s Private Reserve, a major competitor that possessed a fleet and the support of a Pirate Lord.<br>
<br>
Scalpers for the soda seem to have come into existence to ensure that people are getting more than their allowed allowances of the drink after the restrictions were put into place.<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>Wicked Brew</u></span></b><br>
<br>
The Whispers of the Brew Cult is spread far and wide. It has both a positive and a negative result as students have been spreading rumors of it being a dangerous cult that brainwashes students and strips them of their free will, merely becoming empty vessels that serve a dangerous Corruption Dragon or Demon. The rumors interchange the two.<br>
<br>
But even still, the Brew Cult spreads far and wide, allowing the acquisition of 10 Unpaid Interns. (5 Elves, 2 Humans, 2 Goblins, 1 Mermaid)<br>
<br>
The Ascension ceremony was a huge success and spread happiness through the rest of the Cult and therefore the company. It improved the sales and creation of the products.<br>

The Rumors seem to have done their job. People that weren’t already fascinated with their competitor were now weary of them. However, some had taken that in the opposite effect and wished to join a spooky evil brainwashing cult. Students were weird like that. But, it at least succeeded in gaining new members to their own drinking cause.<br>
<br>
A sports team was a wonderful idea and something that was wholly taken up by both the School Board and the students. A sports team was formed based on a popular Magical Basketball called Skort. It was the official team of Duster Energy Drinks and at every game, the drinks and merch would be there to great new and old customers.<br>

Berry Ale took off with the younger generation as intended. Under normal circumstances, the Church would have frowned upon such frivolities. However, this type of entertainment actually helped fuel the younger generations in their religious studies. It was a fascinating concept for which there would be many a scholar probably writing their own theories on it in the future. But for now, it was something that worked and worked well.<br>

The Assistance of the Resources of a company helped along the underground speakeasies and made the company a friend to the other “lesser” races within the Churchocracy, all while the officials were unaware. It raised sales within their peoples and their home nations.<br>

Turning to look out his overseer window at the line of workers his smile grew wider as an idea came to him for what to do about that skeleton that had approached him several months previous, now that had taken a good amount of talking to get it to get the hint to come back later on! Lifting up the report on his desk he tapped the name of his current greatest threat, that of Reginald's Private Reserve.<br>
===================================================================================================================<br>
Dul smiled, Dul had done it! He had become head of entire sanitation department! Dul was now most paid employee in plant and all Dul had to do was make sure that his friends were doing their jobs! Dul was happiest that Dul could help out Boss Trilroxan, Boss Trilroxan never made Dul feel stupid! Boss Trilroxan always made Dul feel like he was an important part of the company, and Dul would make sure he would continue to do his best to help Boss Trilroxan!<br>

<i>Captain Denise O'Piers</i><br>
<br>
It was a fine day for sailing, even finer when someone was a captain to one of the RPR 'Brand Ambassadors', working hard to bring the wonders of Minosa Pearl to the rest of the world! Captain O'Piers wasn't even certain how many other captains there were now, sailing under the RPR banner, but boy, did it seem like a lot. Little bit more and they'd be a proper navy. When he wasn't feeling like a million gold after drinking his fair share of Pearl, he sometimes wondered if what they were doing was 'right'. Some strange, mysterious wizard no one has heard off, that never shows his face, suddenly building a massive fleet, allying with the dread pirate, and some whisper, may ally with Bandit Lord of Valley Gorge... Made an alliance with the mermaid kingdom as if he was a nation instead of a company.. It was enough to make a man start to second guess his actions.<br>
<br>
But it was nothing a second, third and fourth bottle of pearl couldn't change! How alive it made him feel, his heart thundering in his chest, god, after a binge of Pearl, he felt like he was king of the world and there was nothing he couldn't do! No bordello was safe when a 'Brand Ambassador' of RPR was in town! <br>
<br>
Whatever greater mysteries there were, all O'Piers new for certain was... Everything was a little bit better with some pearl. Hell, he hadn't seen his family in ages, couldn't even remember their name, but who cared? He had Pearl. <br>

The mutant dragon was quite pleased with himself as he was again lounging in the chemical vat  of the concoction he used to help keep his mind and form stable. The purple fluid churned in the faerie fire light of the lanterns  around the chamber as a wall sported a variety of notes and considerations in glowing chalk. It was all in draconic to ensure someone would have to work to figure it out.<br>
<br>
A robed figure enters the chamber, hiding its form, though every now and then a tentacle might appear from a sleeve or under the hood. Auridrex seemed more amused at their arrival. What was discussed was hard to say, but the figure departed even as the mutant chuckled more to himself, muttering some as he splashed and sank into his chemical pool to stew in it for a while longer. It seemed time to engage in a bit of intrigue while there w as a open window to do so before more ceremonies of ascension became necessary.​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center">Actions<br>

<b>YEAR 2, TURN 8: Summer</b><br>
<br>
Mr Xexion read the most recent news reports from all of the civilized countries in the Realm of Rodaxear. He was very pleased at all of the various tidbits of information that he was coming across.<br>
<br>
Summer was popping up with its hot advances in territory and things were certainly heating up. Attacks on companies, industrial espionage, seizures of entire countries. <br>
<br>
It seemed likely that things were going to come to a full on head soon. The clashes that would erupt and boil over.<br>
<br>
It was intriguing to watch.<br>

<br>
At the beginning of the season, catastrophe had struck. Several ships had been sunk and destroyed via an unknown explosive device. It was clearly sabotage, but no one was ever found that had committed or was even able to commit such an action. As such, production was slowed for the season and the workers were on high alert. They didn’t want to be the next to fall to some intense industrial espionage. (Decrease in Production due to fear and loss of ships)<br>
<br>
Devilishly Fine Soda and Potions had quickly reached out after hearing the news of the destruction of the ships and decrease in production, sending an offer of aid in order to help them bounce back.<br>
<br>
The Bandit Lord Holgrim eagerly took the expanded cut of profits and taught the Mermaid Guards some bandit fighting tricks. As a result, the guards became much more like professional soldiers in fighting prowess. (Improved Mermaid Fighting Capabilities)<br>
<br>
More Guards were hired as the remaining ships were filled with more workers. The production capability was nearing its limit as they were churning out as much product as possible.<br>
<br>
With the support of the Bandit Lord and the influx of Wicked Brew into Valley Gorge, the financial collapse of Eridium Bubblers Co was upon them as the Valley was split between the newer and more aggressive companies.<br>
<br>
A trio of masked Figures arrived at Reginald’s Room. They introduced themselves as The Triplets and for the price of 600 Gold, they could triple production for One Season.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Current Net Gain for the Season: 391 Gold<br>

The Fixer managed to cause a large amount of damage to Reginald’s Fleet, but apparently, even still, his fleet was so large and his luck so great that the damage wasn’t as great as it could have been. It was almost as though there was some divine or demonic protection that was keeping him and his safe. Clearly this man is not just some simple Wizard. There is more to him than meets the eye.<br>
<br>
The offer of assistance was received, so it comes down to waiting to see how Reginald take the show of good faith from a competitor.<br>
<br>
The workers spread good cheer from a worker winning a local lottery spread among the others and caused them to work harder.<br>

<br>
The Mimic Spy infiltrates its target with ease and begins to cause some industrial sabotage with great skill and subtly. Only time will tell how much the damage truly was caused and how permanent it shall be. The rival company was unsuspecting as its defenders were caught off guard.<br>
<br>
The Blitz Campaign was a success. Valley Gorge was expanded into. With Wicked Brew’s blitz campaign and the acquisition of a local Bandit Lord by Reginald’s Private Reserve, the two companies caused Eredium Bubblers Co to fold under due to being unable to compete with the two much larger and better situated companies.<br>

Berry Ale and Berry Ale White were proving quite popular with not just the church, but also with the common folk. If this company kept up with such delicious and flavorful products, they would continue to push out and drive their competition to bankruptcy. Already, people are looking more towards 10 by 10 as the leader and front footed member of the soda community within the country.<br>
<br>
With their assistance in the underground speakeasies, the company has begun to spread into Clockwork City (Goblin Lands) and the Kingdom of Ein’huul (Elven Lands) <br>

The beneficiary laws caused the company to become truly one with the Council of Grihass as funds flowed directly from the country coffers into the company ones.

<br>
We got us an adventuring party coming through soon! And not just any old adventuring party lads. We've got us the famous band of brothers, the Fellowship of the Ring Pull!<br>
<br>
The legendary company that saved us all from that great eye in the sky and renowned throughout the land for their grand deed because of it.<br>
<br>
BAH!!!<br>
<br>
We all know their true colours don't we fellas? Just a band of righteous racists that try to put us Greenskins down any chance they got. Like when they came barrelling right through them Goblin settlers in Canadgas, killing them left right and center to continue their grand quest. And all because they didn't fancy going the long way round.<br>
<br>
BASTARDS!!!<br>
<br>
Or the time us noble Orcs tried to help the Wild Men retake their lands by the Sparkling Caves from their ancient enemy, the 'Straw Heads'. If it had not been because of the Fellowship, the Wild Men would have taken back their lands rather than have become cheap labour for their enemies. And what of the Orcs? Were we spared?<br>
<br>
NO!!!<br>
<br>
Our brave brothers were heartlessly execute and hunted, our bodies cast aside to feed the crows. How callous was the Fellowship, as to make our deaths a contest between their number, the sneaky Green Leaf and the trichophiliac Lockbearer. More like Green Hater and Loverboy (We've all heard the rumours, haven't we fellas).<br>
<br>
FREE PEOPLE MY ARSE!!!<br>
<br>
Not an Orc, Goblin, Mermaid or Skeleton between them! Just two geezers, a short bloke, a lanky git and a bunch of hairy footed twits. Whose great idea was it to invite them along, ey? All they did was run, hide and get lost. Sound like great heroes to you?<br>
<br>
HELL NO!!!<br>
<br>
So I propose the lot of us, green skinned, jelly or scaled, make a company of our own. One that will be more than glad to Free these People of an extremity or two...<br>

<hr><div style="text-align: center">The lab was busy with various staff working and making the finest soda the only such tools could. Quality continued to be the strategy of Wicked Brew even as if had started to insert its business interests into Valley Gorge. It had made sense as orcs were already partial to the Dragonrush brand. There was hopes Divinity and its new flavors would do the same. Speaking of said flavors, Auridrex was examining the latest versions of <i>Divinity</i>: <i>Serenity</i> and <i>Calamity</i>. It was amusing to name them to help play into the flavorings while also making them appealing to just about anyone.  He had mused over things to do beyond that, yet what matters most was ensuring the flavors were ready for full scale production. There were be concerns about raiding but destroyed product made surviving crates more valuable until he could get assets in place to deal with the issue.<br>
<br>
As to other matters, another Ascension Ritual was being prepared to uplift the final batch of Interns from the first year. The rewards continuing to be  clear for loyalty and service to Wicked Brew. He would need to work on converting more to the Brew Cult, but he was patient. The ceremony and its pomp were there to create a strong inner culture for the company even for non-cult members. Doubly so for them, showing they were valued while continuing to encourage their growing skills. The seeds continue to grow and bloom, giving Auridrex precisely what he'd desired all along. Long term, skilled workers  with little reason to seek leaving the company.​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center"><b>Actions</b><br>

It wasn't until, with a muffled curse, the man put his second hand upon it to add more pressure that the bolt moved, slamming his hand into the side of the machine he was working on. Dancing away from it with curses spilling from his lips he never heard the sound of Trilroxan coming up behind him, chuckling at his underling's misfortune.<br>
<br>
"Why Solomon, what a mouth you have! Surely your mother taught you better than that" the demonic owner's grin was cheerful, his good mood infectious even to the dour maintenance technician.<br>
<br>
"Aye, she tried boss. Too bad me da was a sailor," Cayden grinned right back, chuckling. "Taught me every curse in tha book he did."<br>
<br>
"Well, if I ever need to expand my vocabulary, I'll come to you. For now, have you figured out what is wrong with the machine?"<br>
<br>
"Aye, broken pipe flooded her and caused an electrical shortage," the handy man nodded at the panel he was taking off. "Takin a look at her other bits and bobs now, we'll be seein if she's up to snuff here soon."<br>
<br>
"Excellent, I shall leave it to you my good man!" Trilroxan smiles once more at the human and steps away, continuing on his way to his office. As the demon looks around the factory floor he grimaces, taking in all the empty spaces that could be filled with employees. Especially now that several of his current employees were looking to move up in the ranks and earn a higher pay. With a sigh he decided that it was high time to look into some of the applicants that had been building up over time. Perhaps it was time to look for a new ingredient as well? There were a few whispers that people were craving a new flavor all the time after all!<br>

Sashi strolled into the announcer box and picked up the microphone. "And our winners are....the fine Biff and Regina! Happy homecoming everyone!" <br>
<br>
The crowd cheered and chanted. With a blast of horn, the band played the catchy duster energy jingle as everyone made merry. Harpies walked through the crowd, giving out free samples of Duster Energy to all. </span></span><br>

<i>Nadia</i><br>
<br>
Nadia had been put in charge of the operation to discover the sabotage, but there was one issue... The evidence sank with the ships and crew. Reginald hadn't cared about the lose of product, ship or production, but the loss of life.. of people, that had enraged the mage. Or, at least, Nadia assumed it was rage. Still, the attack had happened right after they had begun moving into Valley Gorge and Griihasss, so it stood to reason the perpetrator was someone in there, and it further stood to reason it was a competitor. Perhaps Wicked Brew, or the last dying gasp of Eredium Bubblers Co, and the 'offer of aid' suddenly after the attack, from a competitor, sent a lot of red flags off for Nadia. Reginald had said nothing, merely stared off into the distance, well, she assumed so, it was hard to tell with the mask and all. Either way, they would need to take Valley Gorge, as is, and if it ha dbeen Wicked Brew or Bubbler's Co, this would be a good way to strike back at them and perhaps drive the cockroaches into the light.<br>
<br>
Still, the plan Reginald had put forth surprised her, she had not expected the man to do something like this, but.. What did she really know? Attempt to use their more nefarious allies to crush their rivals and bring the entire region to its knees? She was both impressed, worried and somewhat validated that the man seemed to be as cruel as she always knew him to be.<br>

<b>YEAR 3, TURN 9: Fall</b><br>
<br>
Mr Xexion read the most recent news reports from all of the civilized countries in the Realm of Rodaxear. He was very pleased at all of the various tidbits of information that he was coming across.<br>
<br>
Fall was arriving and it soon seemed that the fall of many a soda company would be coming to fruition based on the various practices of those that have been building up their base and power. Or especially those who have been wreathed their influence throughout their entire country of origin.<br>
<br>
The collapse or follow up of each and every company would be upon them. Perhaps only one would reign supreme over the the world. Or perhaps a multitude. Only time would tell.<br>
<br>
Mr Xexion would eagerly watch and wait to find out what would happen next.<br>
<br>

<br>
<br>
It meant war. That was what Reginald had been declaring in all but words. The ruffians that he had acquired were finally set loose against his enemies and now was the time for them to shine. And shine they did. Valley Gorge was to be the Battlefield that was chosen for Reginald’s Private Reserve and what a field it was.<br>
<br>
The desolation and high population of Orcs was a powderkeg just waiting to happen.<br>
<br>
Wicked Brew’s newest shipments of their newest sodas and refills on the other ones did not arrive at Valley Gorge and suddenly ended up on the black market instead.<br>
<br>
The Fizz Company which launched itself into every single country at once, suddenly found their workforce and its supplies heading to Valley Gorge under heavy siege. The National Guard Knights assigned to this group could barely hold on against Bandit Lord Holgrim and they were forced to pull back with losses. <br>
<br>
Suddenly it seemed like a bad idea for others to make any headway into Valley Gorge.<br>

<br>
The Seasoned Adventuring Party searched high and low and eventually arrived with an amazing discovery. An ingredient called: Vivorn Reeds. A grain growing in the dread marshes and one that tastes like Black Licorice.<br>
<br>
The new highers were important as suddenly The Fizz Company had brought themselves onto the scene. Word in the business was that after securing their home country, they have now had a full on spread throughout all the countries as a complete blitz. Not only have they sent their normal guards, but they are protected by Griihass national Guard as the company has been deemed worthy of being a national treasure.<br>
<br>
Due to the popularity of Devilishly Fine Soda and Potions, however, they haven’t yet made too much headway, though they are slightly cutting into the profit by being the newest thing.<br>
<br>
An undead Bandit by the name of Scorch approached with a deal. “Pay me 400 Gold and I’ll attack The Fizz for you.”<br>

<br>
Serenity and Calamity were moving along nicely on the home front with the flavors being especially ingested by the Staff as well as the student body. The only location that they were having difficulty with was in Valley Gorge. It seemed that both the Bandit Lord Holgrim and the Dread Pirate J’Kyon were stealing any assets that were going to restock the facility there. It would greatly hamper any business done in The Valley, especially as The Fizz was also attempting to set up shop.<br>
<br>
On the home front, it seemed that while Duster Energy was having a degree of success, it was greatly overshadowed by that of Wicked Brew. Wicked Brew was the drink of the intellectual elites, while Duster Energy was more of the lower classes.<br>
<br>
A tall humanoid? In a black suit approached and offered to damage the reputation of Duster Energy for the low, low price of 500 Gold.<br>

Homecoming was a success. The younger school peoples were eating up what Duster Energy had to offer. While the elites were gravitating towards Wicked Brew, the student body was all for the sensationalism that came with Duster with their maniac pixie girls in the form of the Harpies gave an added danger to the sexual appeal.<br>
<br>
The local bars very much took to the scantily clad Harpy girls. However, those on the board were annoyed at the sensationalism and began to work on legislature in order to restrict that type of work in the bars.<br>

Mist Bubbles collapse was the gain of 10 by 10. But it was also the gain of The Fizz Company which began to bring in headway into the religious people of the Churchocracy. As part of a blitzkrieg to force their way into every market in every country, they managed to move in and start taking a piece of the pie. For now, it was part of the pie that was originally their competitors. But that could grow depending on how they act.<br>
<br>
As of the present, 10 by 10 is very popular in the Churchocracy by many people.<br>
<br>
The expansion into Clockwork City actually made them the main competitor of The Fizz Company in the city as the original Goblin Soda Company had collapsed by over extending itself. The war looked to be fought on two fronts. The Churchocracy and Clockwork City.<br>
<br>
The Fellowship of the Ring Pull located a new ingredient: Red Ichor: It tasted sweet with a pine flavor.<br>

<br>
Fizz Round the World. That was the the campaign. And it was starting to bear fruit. In the Elven Kingdom of Ein’Huul, they easily took it and had no competition. In Clockwork City, their main competition was the 10 by 10 company. In Valley Gorge, due to interference from a Bandit Lord and a Pirate Queen, they were unable to move in and had to retreat. In Minosa, their only competition is with Reginald’s Private Reserve. In The University of SpellHard, they were able to set up shop, but they would have to deal with both Wicked Brew and Duster Energy. In the Deadlands, Devishly Fine Soda and Potion was the ruler of the lands. IN the Churchocract of Oupital, 10 by 10 was entrenched in deeply with the religious people.<br>
<br>
The bullrush into the lands was a major success so far. But they would need to push harder if they were to make good inroads into the lands that already have entrenched companies that have been working hard for two years to set up shop.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="color: rgb(0, 168, 133)"><span style="font-size: 26px">Wicked Brew</span></span></span>​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center">Auridrex stood in the center of his chambers, a new map in place of the world and its various market point. There was also a map of the University itself marking the locations of the various soda companies here. Currently there was a red marker on the Fizz company. He was annoyed enough by he mermaids but a company back by national troops was UNACCEPTABLE.<br>
<br>
"How dare they come to MY Univeristy with foreign troops!" Auridrex roars and slams a tentacled fist in the the sturdy table to make it shake. Pieces jumps but the two parties in the room remained calm. The Brew Knights were present along with the cloaked figure of Tablua. It annoyed Auridrex that he would have to act more openly but he would not permit interference in his affairs. He would not allow another nation to have its soldiers in that which he considered his.<br>
<br>
"The audacity to send soldiers here with a company. I will CRUSH them!" He gripped a statue in hand and crushed it to piece. He still had the strength of a dragon if not more with his mutations. His gold armor creaked as it worked to contain and control his form as his rage surged for a moment.<br>
<br>
"This will not do, we must make our own moves now. Yesssss. Competition with Duster was acceptable, their markets were not ours. Perhaps its time I send them an olive branch while we deal with these interlopers who've come to our territory," Auridex mused as he taps the Duster Energy location and slipped a blue pin into it.<br>
<br>
"This Bandlord, I find his antics enraging and unseemly. I want him and his band exterminated. I'll give you funds to support the endeavor," Auridex stated as he looks towards the Brew Knights. "Burn them out. Then remain in position. I'll likely require you to deal with this Pirate if I don't tap into other assets. Valley Gorge will be MINE," Auridrex gurgled as he moved to the map and slotted in a red pin at Valley Gorge.<br>
<br>
The Brew Knights bowed and moved to depart, having their instructions. They'd find a set of funds set aside to finance their operation aside from the fact they could likely keep what loot was found. Wicked Brew was a generous employer and it needed loyal operatives.<br>
<br>
"As for you, Tabula. You know what I want done. I will not speak the orders aloud. See to it. Solve the problem. I've allocated fund to you as well to ensure the matter is dealt with... dramatically."<br>
<br>
The robed figure chuckles and bows before moving to vanish into a darkened alcove even as its form was starting to change shape.<br>
<br>
With that done, the hulking mutant moved to a desk to begin to pen a letter to Duster Energy, requesting a cease fire or even partnership between the two companies native to the Universtiy while they pushed out the competing brands coming in from foreign lands. <a href="/members/wew-the-polymath.95217/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="95217" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId67">

MR. SMITH: No Comment.<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: Fine then. I'll let my partner continue from where she left off.<br>
<br>
DET. FIZI: As I stated before, Mr Smith, we've had a number of eyewitnesses place you at certain addresses which we at Interwatch believe to be former hotbeds of illicit activities. In this case, the illegal procurement and drinking of Soda.<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: There's that word again, Mr Smith. Seems you and soda are very much intertwined.<br>
<br>
DET. FIZI: While this isn't illegal in itself, of course, what caught our eye was the rate at which you seem to appear at these addressees. Sometimes within hours.<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: And we're speaking across country. Sometimes even countries, Mr Smith.<br>
<br>
DET. FIZI: Could you tell us how that is possible, Mr Smith?<br>
<br>
MR. SMITH: No Comment<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: That's fine, Mr Smith. We've got forty six more hours to get what we need from you. Guess you'll be missing the Poetry Slam after all.<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: And to think we were originally after your wife for fraud....</span><br>

<i>Rotgut</i><br>
<br>
Rotgut was a simple orc living a simple bandit life. The orcs liked to fight, it was in their nature, see? So most of them weren't too keen on this whole 'world peace' that had settled in, especially, with those of the church. So taking up the life of a bandit, fightin' and lootin'? That was just good proper orcish fun. He hadn't been too sure about this 'alliance' with Reginald, scary wizard though the stories claim, after all, that meant less caravans to raid and less fighting to be done. Sure they got more coin this way, but what was the use of coin without a propa scrap.<br>
<br>
... At least, that was it at first, but now? Now there were rumors of a war. A right war. Not a fight, not a scrap, but a true, war. Ah, how long had it been since Rotgut and the boys fought in such a battle? He couldn't recall, not that surprising considering the amount of blows he had taken to the head, but a war.. Yes, Rotgut couldn't wait.<br>

2. WAR. Valley Gorge will be taken now that they've been weakened by raids and it is already surrounded by Reginald's Forces. 800 gold will be used to hire mercenaries, pay for the campaign and hire adventurers. Bandit Lord Holgrim and his bandits [If Holgrim falls or dies in the battle, Regi will attempt to assume command over them] will attack from the land, the massive armada of Regi and J'kyon will besiege from the sea with Mermaids launching surprise night amphibious assaults to open gates for the besiegers [Mermaids are Improved Fighters].<br>

Valley Gorge will fall to Regi.​</div></div>

The last mercenary I hired was barely worth it, I'm not sure he will be any better for so much less of a price.'<br>

With this new threat he wished to ensure that there would be no sabotage to the men and women who would be his servants soon enough after all.

Sherlock Moriarty smiled as he looked at the map of the realm on his desk. Valley Gorge is a tough nut to crack. He decided that he wouldn't waste resources and force himself into that chaotic country. Instead, he will strike at the other nations hard.<br>
<br>
This time, he has the resources and connections of an entire country. He will utilize it to the fullest. Two motions were just passed in the last council meeting. The first one will deploy each councilor to a nation for a diplomatic visit and the second one provides the Fizz Company subsidy when hiring adventuring parties.<br>
<br>
He himself will go to Clockwork City.<br>
<br>
Order 1: Diplomacy and Connections<br>


<div class="bbCodeSpoiler">
	<button type="button" class="bbCodeSpoiler-button button--longText button" data-xf-click="toggle" data-xf-init="tooltip" data-original-title="Click to reveal or hide spoiler" id="js-XFUniqueId85"><span class="button-text">

		<span>Spoiler: <span class="bbCodeSpoiler-button-title">Order Details</span></span>
	</span></button>
	<div class="bbCodeSpoiler-content">
		<div class="bbCodeBlock bbCodeBlock--spoiler">
			<div class="bbCodeBlock-content">On consensus, the five councilors are to be deployed for diplomatic state visits to five nations. They will strengthen diplomatic ties with the government of the nation they are visiting and through that, secure benefits for the Fizz Company from the state and private investors.<br>
<br>
Each Councilor will be bringing their own retinue of guards and will also be protected by the High-Level Adventuring Party and Seasoned Adventuring Party that is also deployed to each nation to support Fizz Operations.<br>
<br>
1. Marwan Brimrose (Vampire) | Deployed to the Deadlands to Support and Reinforce Fizz Operations as well as strengthen diplomatic ties with the foreign government<br>
2. Sherlock Moriarty (Human) | Deployed to Clockwork City to Support and Reinforce Fizz Operations as well as strengthen diplomatic ties with the foreign government<br>
3. Holly Silverson (Human) | Deployed to Churchocraft of Ouppital to Support and Reinforce Fizz Operations as well as strengthen diplomatic ties with the foreign government<br>
4. Councilor 4 | Deployed to University of Spellhard to Support and Reinforce Fizz Operations as well as strengthen diplomatic ties with the foreign government<br>
5. Councilor 5 | Deployed to Minosa to Support and Reinforce Fizz Operations as well as strengthen diplomatic ties with the foreign government<br>
<br>
The Fizz Cola's target market is the mass populace, the regular citizens, and not niche markets like other soda companies. In these meetings, the Fizz Company will also offer benefits to these foreign governments. Like in the Council of Grihaas, the Fizz Company can be used as a propaganda tool by these nations to strengthen the rule of their government. <br>
<br>
Additionally, the success of the Fizz Company contributes to their company, taxes will be paid on each cola in the country it is sold in and Sherlock gave hints that they don't mind sharing part of the profit.</div>

	</div>
</div><br>
Order 2: Reinforcement and Retaliation<br>


<div class="bbCodeSpoiler">
	<button type="button" class="bbCodeSpoiler-button button--longText button" data-xf-click="toggle" data-xf-init="tooltip" data-original-title="Click to reveal or hide spoiler" id="js-XFUniqueId86"><span class="button-text">

	<div class="bbCodeSpoiler-content">
		<div class="bbCodeBlock bbCodeBlock--spoiler">
			<div class="bbCodeBlock-content">A motion has been passed in the Council of Grihaas, granting the Fizz Company a 50% subsidy when they hire adventuring parties. As soon as this was announced, the Fizz Company immediately hired all 5 High-Level adventuring parties:<br>
1. The Mighty 4 | Deployed to the Deadlands to Support and Reinforce Fizz Operations<br>
2. The Spellcasting Bunch | Deployed to Clockwork City to Support and Reinforce Fizz Operations<br>
3. Legion of The Light | Deployed to Churchocraft of Ouppital to Support and Reinforce Fizz Operations<br>
4. The Horned Battalion | Deployed to University of Spellhard to Support and Reinforce Fizz Operations<br>
5. Large and In Charge | Deployed to Minosa to Support and Reinforce Fizz Operations<br>
<br>
Additionally, 5 Seasoned Adventuring Parties are also hired to act as support to each of the High-Level adventuring parties.<br>
<br>
These adventuring parties will protect Fizz Operations and at the same time, use their own method to boost sales. If and when possible, they could also covertly strike competition so long as it does not adversely affect Fizz operations.<br>
<br>
Initial Expense: 3,000 Gold<br>
Government Subsidy: - 1,500 Gold<br>
Total Expense: 1,500 Gold</div>

<span style="color: #ffffff"><span style="font-size: 15px">Sashi looked over her blueprints once more. It was time to begin expansion. The other brew companies were beginning to take off in terms of popularity, according to her little birdies. It was time to make a change. Time to use the gold horde for something good. <br>
<br>
It was then that the harpy saw a letter on her desk, penned by none other than her arch rival. She picked it up and smirked at the faux dragon's offer. Then her eyes fell to the part about foreign troops. Dragons were always known to be paranoid, but something about yet another competitor made her feathers ruffle. This university could barely afford two soda brands let alone a third. </span><br>
<br>
She turned to her portly benefactor, Mr. Tonne, who was currently laying back on an ottoman and smoking a putrid cigar. It was a new habit he picked up to get under her skin, as she refused to work her employees like dogs. "They brought a fucking ARMY Tonne." <br>
<br>
He snorted. "Yea? People take this seriously. You've been slacking anyways. Maybe this will serve as your wakeup call." <br>
<br>
"Fuck you too you lazy pig" Sashi whispered through clenched teeth. Tonne laughed. "What was that my dear? My ears aren't what they used to be." <br>
<br>
She shook her head and plucked a feather from her wings, dipped it in an inkwell, and suggested a parley at the football fieldhouse after hours. It would be a discrete location, after all. She stormed off to her secondary nest and yelled for her friends. "Girls! We're going drinking. I need to blow some steam off. Maybe we can take a guy home and gut him or something." <br>
<br>
Her posse eagerly cheered and the squad hit the bars. Unfortunately, every place was a college bar and full of freshmen. They settled on a place called "Manny's" and Sashi ordered some swill for her squad. A pimple faced kid walked up to her and began nervously trying to talk to her, and she smiled. Looks like easy prey. She flirted with him and his cheekes were a rosy red the whole time. This was the first time a woman was talking to him! <br>
<br>
As the night wound down, Sashi asked the young lad to come home with her. He began walking home with her, until Sashi's goblin spy jumped from a trashcan. "YO SASHI, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?" <br>
<br>
She raised an eyebrow. "Uh....taking this....hot guy...home." Upon hearing this, the man swooned. <br>
<br>
"Uh huh, sure Sashi. How bout ya rethink what's about to happen. We can't afford the...you know." <br>
<br>
Sashi huffed. He was right. The nerd could live. But he sure wasn't coming back to her place now. <br>
<br>

<b><u>YEAR 3, TURN 10: Winter</u></b><br>
<br>
Mr Xexion read the most recent news reports from all of the civilized countries in the Realm of Rodaxear. He was very pleased at all of the various tidbits of information that he was coming across.<br>
<br>
Open Warfare was in the Valley Gorge, and it would only be a matter of time until control fell under a singular faction. Glorious conflict and combat where only the truest warriors would confined in their contentment of the situation.<br>
<br>
Valley Gorge would be littered with blood, but perhaps the realm would be united with another.<br>
<br>
Regi, it seems was becoming a full on dictator, seeming to try to gain control and vast swatches of land. How would the others deal with that, he wondered?<br>
<br>
Mr Xexion would eagerly watch and wait to find out what would happen next.<br>
<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>Reginald’s Private Reserve</u></span></b><br>
<br>
<br>
Minosa greatly favored Regi and his Private Reserve Company. The drinks that he provided freely was truly the last straw that broke the camel’s back. Regi’s political power was now absolute and the people and leadership for Minosa would follow his command.<br>
<br>
The Counsellor of Grihass that was dispatched was politely rebuffed along with their adventuring party and the soda facility in Minosa was shut down.<br>
<br>
This would surely in the long run cause a breakdown of relations between Minosa and Grihaas, but the people are firmly entrenched in the love that they have for RPR.<br>
<br>
The Brew Knights Adventurers that were dispatched by Wicked Brew were able to kill the Bandit Lord Holgrim but were overwhelmed and forced to retreat when Regi arrived to assume command of the surviving Bandits with a massive armada and a mercenary army at their heels.<br>
<br>
Regi assumed command of 30 Bandit Warriors (20 Orcs, 10 Humans)<br>
<br>
RPR assumed control of the Wicked Brew Workshop within Valley Gorge.<br>
<br>
Someone during all the commotion had managed to cause massive damage to property and employees of the RPR factory during the fighting and it will need to be repaired to become fully functional again.<br>
<br>
RPR has established complete unilateral control of both Minosa and Valley Gorge. No other companies are permitted to set up shop. Though there are rumors of secret speakeasies that might exist within Valley Gorge. <br>

<br>
It didn’t take too much for these continued employees to fall under a devil’s contract and for their souls to be claimed in the deal. Each one got something different for their part of the bargain, but it was the final product that meant the most for the leader of Devilishly Fine Soda and Potions.<br>
<br>
The new hires were integrated nicely into the already functioning part of the company, adding to the production and the funds that will be acquired from the creation of more soda.<br>
<br>
The Fizz Operations that have set up shop have been reinforced by an Adventuring Party known as The Mighty 4 with another experienced adventuring party as backup and the Vampire Lady, Marwan Brimrose was sent as a representative to strengthen diplomatic ties with the government of the DeadLands. <br>
<br>
This could possibly affect sales down the line as they are cosying up with the governments of the area.<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>Wicked Brew</u></span></b><br>
<br>
An ADventuring Group called The Horned Battalion was sent along with a Councillor to improve relations between SpellHard and the Fizz. All seemed to be going well until a number of students began to get sick and it was discovered to be a corrupted batch of Fizz Soda.<br>
<br>
A rally of students, supported by teaching officials campaigned to have The Fizz removed from their campus and home. The competition of Wicked Brew and Duster Energy was all the entangled different flavors that they needed.<br>
<br>
It was viewed as a battle between a Giant and the plucky underdog. But The Fizz ruined that dynamic and many nerds felt that it changed up the MetaPlot.<br>
<br>
In the end after a series of carefully placed bribes, it seemed that The Board voted to have The Fizz Company removed from campus and only allowed to operate on a small scale such as vending machines and small cash prizes.<br>
<br>
Net Gain: 847 GP<br>
<br>
<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>Duster Energy</u></span></b><br>
<br>
There seemed to be an almost unspoken alliance between Duster Energy and Wicked Brew. Sure, there was a constant animosity between the two companies, but it was something that many within SpellHard enjoyed seeing.<br>
<br>
It was once an outside company tried to join in and mess up their carefully crafted rivalry dynamic that people started to get upset. Though nothing was officially done until it seemed that the new products brought in by this company started to poison students. Then, the Board voted out the company as a whole, only allowing small sales in vending machines under careful watch.<br>
<br>
The larger factory space certainly helped with sales and the research that was being conducted was most interesting.<br>
<br>
It seems that The Fizz Company had all but taken over the Country of Griihass. They had a large supply of Adventuring parties at their disposal and currently an army of 150 troops have been assembled, though not fully deployed. Though there had been a major incursion attempt in Valley Gorge.<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>10 by 10 Co</u></span></b><br>
<br>
Green Mush was a major hit to go along with Slurry of the Small. It seems that that specific campaign marketed towards that specific population was a good choice and indeed, helped to generate a much larger flow of cash.<br>
<br>
The Dungeon Crawl was also being a huge success. It was hooked up to every country except for Minosa as it was known that those in Minosa were fiercely loyal to Reginald’s Private Reserve. So much so that if a Speakesie were to be set up there, it would definitely blow the entire operation.<br>
<br>
But other than that barely avoided hiccup, they were now able to reach out to every place of interest with such gusto that it would be hard to stop the flow of cash.<br>
<br>
The Fizz Company began to reinforce their new holdings within the Churchocracy and their diplomat, Holly Silverson began to cozy up to the higher ups within the religious councils. This could impact sales, especially now that their original main competitor has gone.<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>The Fizz Company</u></span></b><br>
<br>
<br>
The World at large was being more resistant to The Fizz than the corporation thought. Acts of subtle pushbacks were common at the very least and sabotage occurred in SpellHard that caused the company to get removed from service there outside of vending machines. <br>
<br>
The only ones to have success were Marwin Brimrose in the Deadlands, Sherlock Moriarty in Clockwork City, and Holly Silverson in Churchocracy.<br>
<br>
This could be a tougher nut to crack as SpellHard, Minosa and Valley Gorge seemed to be out of their grasp.<br>
<br>
Who knew where Reginald’s Private Reserve would attack next?<br>

<i>Regi</i><br>
<br>
The city still smelt of blood, smoke and death. It was hard to tell how many died in the assault, both in the city, and without. Such numbers would not become known until some time after the battle, when supply lines and logistics could be recreated. Over the distance, Regi was sure he could hear the wailing of a child.. It tore at his heart. He had brought devastation to this land, and while they were Orcs and so likely had some level of 'fun', not all were orcs and not all orcs enjoyed such conflict. Still, it had to be done. People.. needed oversight. People needed someone to watch what they do and ensure they behave. The world was filled with students, yet it had no teacher. Regi did not believe he was that teacher, but for lack of a better alternative, he would do it. He had spent his life being hated, ostracized, no fancy chair would change that. But Regi was used to the hatred, he could handle it. <br>
<br>
The light wizard moved through the ruined city, stopping only occasionally to heal some of the fallen, those that were still within his capability to save, until he came to the sight.. Bandit Lord Holgrim. Slain by adventurers that had snuck behind lines and attacked him when he was vulnerable. A bold plan, made worse by the fact that the assassins had escaped justice, but Regi was confident he knew who ordered the attack. The same one who 'started' this, the same one who was angry that Valley Gorge was now outside their reach. Wicked Brew.<br>
<br>
Regi knelt down to lay his hand on the large, fallen orc, he had not spoken to Holgrim much, but the orc had seemed t so lively, when he once drew breath. Now... Now he was nothing. He would prepare, take the time to draw breath, but soon... <br>
<br>
Soon Spellhard would fall. But not before he gave some a chance to flourish. <br>

Born from a democracy, how many Inhumans hands voted for this establishment, how many unclean wretches within their council did they beg, bribe and give service in to reach their current standing. While I would applaud the man at the Company's head for attaining such a station, to reach such a position under the foot of Inhumans and heretics alike makes such a position worthless would the Church not agree?</span><br>

With champions of every Ill gotten ilk at their command, they celebrate their blasphemous ways in full view of our people. With invasive infidels marching through our convective cities, can the Church not see this as an attack on our opulent Oupital and our very way of life!?<br>
<br>
For two years my brothers and I have served as wardens, watchmen and willing servants to the Church and through our enlightened efforts and endurance, the company we oversee has become something of  complaisant credence.<br>
<br>
With the most honouring humility, I would like to state the intrinsic value of the Ten by Ten Company to the people of the Churchocracy, this establishment being the sole purveyors of both the common Man's Secret Soda brand and the Enlightened Church's preferred tonic, Jade Light. For two years these beverages have been used to quench our thirst, appreciated at service and on the street. <br>
<br>
And this is all thanks to the Churches own enlightened efforts to keep the inapt inhumans in line and under heel, as they should be. Content to live in this factory of filth, for beggar's wages, and all for the Churchocracy's satisfaction, is this not a shining example of the Tenents of the Land's divine decrees?<br>
<br>
<i> Of further note, is the Company's hand in fuelling the religious contemplation of our children though even I, an enduring member of this establishment and the Church, find this result questionable. <br>
<br>
Perhaps divine credence at play? The Velvet Servant's deemed this perplexing place worthy of protection...<br>
<br>
Nevertheless, If such a thing is possible by such humanoid hands, then my words surely hold weight in the value of this factory, do they not?<br>
<br>
With nothing more to say on the matter, I leave it my superiors to deem the worth of my words. My prayers be with the Church.</i></span><br>

The old Burlsi site will be bought up in it's current condition (in disrepair or otherwise), for less than it's original value (400G).The difference in cost will be used as incentive and subsidies to attract the site's former employees back to work at the site. Current residents (Vagabonds/ Drifters/ Scavengers etc.) humanoid or otherwise will be offered employment as well. An extra 200G will be put aside for payment just in case and 10 by 10 products will also be used as incentive (Clockwork City Exclusives).<br>
<br>
Jade Light will now be sold exclusively to the Churchocracy of Oupital and Speakeasies.</i></div>

<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/wicked-brew-hq-jpg.1029091/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/966/966221-12fc427fba90d9f6fa16b3dbb8709922.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="Wicked Brew HQ.jpg" title="Wicked Brew HQ.jpg" width="137" height="100" loading="lazy"></a>​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center">The chamber stirred as the hulking dragon mutant paced about, regarding the University map along with the others. He as quite furious at the Valley Gorge seizure and was going to carry out a response. He didn't have the military power to act, but knew how best to hand  that. There were were four figures waiting in the chamber. Tabula was familiar, their shifting form hidden by their robes. There was a female elf in tight leathers leaning against a towering, overly muscled orc while playing with a dagger. The orc himself seemed impassive, his beady eyes focused on the hulking mutant. A goblin was fidgeting with something that looked like a clockwork explosive.<br>
<br>
"It seems I must introduce my competitors to a more subtle method of warfare. You are each here for you specific skill sets. You will coordinate and operate with a budge I've provided to sow chaos and rebellion in Valley Gorge. You will commence smuggling into Valley Gorge and sowing spreading rebellion. Spreading my Brew Cult. Resisting Reginald to take back their lands. Is that a issue?" Auridrex asked as he regards the rogue's gallery he'd gathered.<br>
<br>
"Smuggling I can do, the other stuff I suppose I'll help with since we're on retainer," said the elf and pats the large orc affectionately.<br>
<br>
"They invaded my homeland. I'll burn down their shit happily, doubly so for pay," growled the orc  as he puts a hand on the elves shoulder affectionately.<br>
<br>
"Tick tock, tick tock, I'll give them something to worry about," mutters the goblin gleefuly as he smacks clockwork bomb and it start ticking before he presses something stop it with a wide, satisfied grin. "You want sneaky works and big trouble... you hired the right lot, boss."<br>
<br>
"We'll see it done," Tablua said as they glide forward some. "I'll sow chaos and spread rebellion as the others wreck things and smuggle in goods. Valley Gorge has been in need of a good war. The orcs were getting bored," Tablua said with a chuckle and surprisingly the massive orc nods in agreement.<br>
<br>
"Excellent. Be about your work. You'll find your funds, all minted in a collection of different currencies," Auridrex chuckles darkly before watching his new Special Works Group depart.<br>
--------------------------<br>
The Board had gathered and Auridrex found himself  before them. He had polished his armor plates and done his best to stabilize his form fully. Scented oils had been applied as well to make his presence less grating on those who had once been his colleagues.<br>
<br>
"My friends, you know I prefer my solitude and sending letters to communicated with you. That should tell you how dire I consider this situation. I am here today to discuss the aggressive actions of these outsider soda companies. Wicked Brew and Duster Energy have our rivalry, but we were  here before. We were selling to separate but equally important markets: Staff and Students. Now these aggressive interlopers are moving. The Fizz company had the nerve to bring in soldiers from another land into OUR country. Reginald's Private Reserve has INVADED another sovereign territory," Auridex sweeps one of his hand dramatically to a map that had been set up. It showed the region indicated along with points of known military forces or seized holdings.<br>
<br>
"The University can no longer afford to ignore the outside world on this matter. One of these bloated soda giants will attempt to invade us. Reginald's is the most likely, but Fizz already dared to try to send Republic Guards into our city under the auspices of 'protecting' its inventory. Its BLIGHTED inventory. I must call for you to take up the task of defending the University. A defensive army must be mustered. War mages put at the ready. I will contribute what I can," Auridrex gestures as a large chest is brought forth and deposited before the Board. His tentacles moving to open and reveal a substantial amount of gold.<br>
<br>
"This is my home. I will not see it consumed by others. So I implore you to take action and if need be... give me the authority to handle this matter."​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center"><b>Actions</b><br>

			<div class="bbCodeBlock-content"><u>The Elf Kingdom</u><br>
The Councilor, Large and Incharge, and the Seasoned Adventuring Party from Minosa were redeployed to the Elf Kingdom to consolidate Fizz Company holdings in the country. The Councilor contacted royalty, nobles, and high-ranking government officials to allow the Fizz Company to be able to expand without any hindrances. At the same time, it's also a method to grasp political influence in the uncontested Kingdom.<br>
<br>
The Fizz Company must consume the Elf Kingdom as it did with the Council of Grihaas.<br>
<br>
<u>The Churchocracy </u><br>
Holly Silverson continues to cozy up to the higher officials of the Churchocracy. She knows they won't be comfortable with the Fizz Company coming from a democratic company but as long as there are enough benefits, everything is possible. And so, the Human Councilor continues to offer them political and economic benefits.<br>
<br>
The Fizz Company targets the mass, the Fizz Cola influences the mass, and the Churchocracy wants to control the masses. The Fizz Cola could be a valuable tool for them to do so. What use is a Niche Soda Company? Can it have the same reach as the Fizz Company? The same influence on the masses? No.<br>
<br>
Aside from the propaganda, Holly Silverson also offered up a share of the revenue. She continues to negotiate. The Fizz Company must remain in the Churchocracy and flourish.<br>
<br>
<u>Clockwork City</u><br>
The Councilor from Spellhard, The Horned Batallion, and the other seasoned adventuring party were redeployed to Clockwork City. The Councilor replaced Sherlock Moriarty as the Lead Diplomat as the former had to return. Now the City has a total of 4 adventuring parties (2 High-Level, 2 Seasoned). They intend to blitz the clockwork city, penetrate, and seize control of the market. They will also attempt to influence politics and the high-level executives of the city.<br>
<br>
<u>Deadlands</u><br>
Vampire Lady, Marwan Brimrose is an influential figure in the realm of darkness and the undead. Assisted by the Mighty 4 and another Seasoned Adventuring Party, she will use the power, influence, and resources of the Vampire Clan to accomplish her missions. That is to gain more benefits for the Fizz Company and infiltrate the politics of the deadlands.<br>
<br>
Nothing will be impossible for the Vampire Lady. She will get what she wants... She also promotes the Fizz Blood Cola which is a Fizz Cola meant for them as an alternative to consuming the blood of living beings. Not only is it safer and more sustainable, but it also tastes better than actual blood!<br>

			<div class="bbCodeBlock-content">Sherlock Moriarty returned to the Council of Grihaas and called for an emergency council meeting. As the other councilors were absent, they will attend and vote remotely.<br>
<br>
"The world has gone into chaos. Reginald's Private Reserve has gone out of control. They allied themselves with bandits, pirates, and outlaws. They then declared war on Valley Gorge. After much blood has been spilled and much cruelty, they finally annexed the country. At the same time, the fools and cowards at Minosa capitulated to their authority. RPR now has two countries at his beck and call and as of now, they are licking their wounds like an injured predator, making preparations to hunt their next prey. We must use this chance to also make preparations. At this rate, nobody will be safe!<br>
<br>
I, Sherlock Moriarty, am a man of democracy. I was born and raised in the Council of Grihaas and I will protect it to my last breath. And so, considering the situation, I do this with a heavy heart... I, Sherlock Moriarty, 4th Seat of the Council of Grihaas, propose that the country mobilizes its military and prepares for war.<br>
<br>
Additionally, someone must lead the Council of Grihaas in this difficult moment. I, Sherlock Moriarty, 4th Seat of the Council of Grihaas, in FULL accordance with the constitution, propose the appointment of a Dictator. At the same time, I propose the appointment of the 4th Seat of the Council of Grihaas to the role of Dictator"<br>
(Not actual dictatorship, but more like the roman one with Council still having some oversight authority and the people can appeal)</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)"><span style="font-size: 26px">Duster Energy </span></span><br>
<span style="color: #ffffff"><span style="font-size: 15px">A stoned man stood before a throng of students. Taking a rip from a fat joint, he yelled "NO WAR ON CAMPUS. NO WAR ON CAMPUS." A few of the students lazily joined in the protest. According to this guy, a new company in town pushed filthy products on the masses. They hired death squads in faraway lands to stifle competition. And now, those armies were at the doorstep of the University. "DO WE WANT TO DRINK BLOOD? TO HAVE SOLDIERS TAKE THIS PLACE OVER." This time, the student body responded much more positively. </span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><br>
<span style="color: #ffffff">After a couple of hours of doing this, the group was broken up by campus police as the protest was getting too heated.  The man leading the protest snuck off to the fieldhouse, where he met none other than Sashi Salike. She smiled at him. "You've done well today my honey. Here's your cut." She tossed the man a solid bag of crystals, and then another bag that jangled with coins. "I don't care what you do with it. Does anyone know it was us?"</span><br>
</span><br>
<span style="color: #ffffff">The man greedily fingered through the crystals and looked at Sashi. "Uh no man. In fact, most of the people in the audience weren't wearing Duster merch. </span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><br>
<span style="color: #ffffff">"Good."<br>
<br>
==========================<br>
<br>
Mr. Tonne was getting antsy. All this talk of armies, expansion and more business did not bode well for the group. Audrix of Wicked Brew wanted an alliance...but it was clearly an alliance of convenience. He would stab them in the back as soon it was useful. Hell, he was probably using Duster as a meat shield for the conflict while he tromped around in other markets...not good at all. <br>
<br>
Suddenly Sashi walked in. Tonne turned to her and sighed. "Why did you agree to work with Audrix without my permission?"<br>
<br>
"Because it's MY fucking company, pig. I'm not in a good mood right now. And I'm hungry. You're made of pork too" she said with a greedy smile. </span><br>
</span><br>
<span style="color: #ffffff"><span style="font-size: 15px">Tonne knew this was an empty threat, she was dependent on him to get back to the badlands. "Yea, yea. Whatever. Why don't you use your feminine charms to get with that dragon?"<br>
<br>
She rolled her eyes. "He's a fucking spirit in armor or some shit. Can't."<br>
<br>
"Oh really? A dragon is a dragon. They're proud, I've done business with a lot of them. I doubt he's in that armor by choice. Why don't you play with his heart a bit? Solidify your alliance, if you know what I mean. Plus who knows? If stuff works out well, you get the ear of a dragon."</span><br>
<br>
Sashi began to do one of her famous yells, but then stopped herself. Tonne had a point. He seemed lonely. The other girls laughed at him. Plus it had been a while since she had a date. <br>
<br>

<span style="color: #ffffff"><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255)"><span style="font-size: 18px">* Do heavy research into other markets that are open. Mr. Tonne is going to pull every resource he has to find other regions for Duster Energy to move in to. </span></span></span></div>

<b>YEAR 3, TURN 11: Spring</b><br>
<br>
Mr Xexion read the most recent news reports from all of the civilized countries in the Realm of Rodaxear. He was very pleased at all of the various tidbits of information that he was coming across.<br>
<br>
Warfare has caused two countries to come under the control of a Warlord Sodaman, while another is slowly turning the Council into a land of the hard iron fist.<br>
<br>
It is but the calm before the storm. And violence would soon continue. How intriguing that the violence would be becoming greater than ever before involving soda companies threatening countries.<br>
<br>
Mr Xexion would eagerly watch and wait to find out what would happen next.<br>

<br>
<br>
Mermaid Warriors flocked to Reginald’s service. He was doing the work of the mermaid people. Not only spreading a drink that is their lifeblood, but also greatly increasing the power of the mermaid people.<br>
<br>
He was being seen as a savior of their kind. No longer would those of mermaid blood be trampled upon by those of other races. NO longer would the land dwellers look down upon those that lived in both the lands and the seas.<br>
<br>
No. With the might of REginald’s Private Reserve behind them, it was only a matter of time before they would have all that they desired. They would soon be worthy of the respect that they deserved and it was all thanks to Reginald.<br>
<br>
The mermaid people loved what he was doing and would continue to love him. They flocked to his cause at half the cost of normal and instead of gaining 25 Guards, he gained 50 Mermaid Guards into his service.<br>
<br>
However, all was not well in Valley Gorge. While the repairs were underway, there was grumblings from the underclass.<br>
<br>
Protests in the form of broken down transports and blocked off roads were but the start. The final parts for the repairs of the Factory never even reached its destination and there was flagrant drinking of other soda products, right out in the open, even. Dangers were afoot in Valley Gorge and it would get far worse if it wasn’t stopped.<br>
<br>
A Messenger arrived to Reginald’s Office from Devishly Fine Soda and Potions requesting a meeting at a neutral location with Trilroxan.<br>

Contact was made with Reginald. Whether it would be held in a positive light or not would be all down to him. Sources say that he has been having difficulty with those that live in Valley Gorge who have begun to squirm under the new management.<br>
<br>
With enough greased palms, they managed to find a source of Earthen Mound for their own use. With the sudden flow of chaos, some things will now be easier than others. The soda wars were beginning to heat up.<br>
<br>
The Fizz is encroaching on the DeadLands, with a major focus on the Vampire Population. With a drink specifically for vampiric needs, they have begun to corner the market.<br>

They are attempting to take th city by storm as they had their own country. But the people seem to be a bit resistant, already having a taste for other flavors than the ones that are being presented.<br>

<br>
The Old Burlsi site was not that hard to bring back up to speed and under the control of the 10 by 10. It would soon enough be bringing in the sweet sweet juices that were to be unique to the lands of the Clockwork City and the goblinoid peoples.<br>
<br>
The unique products that were region specific spurred sales into overdrive. The people sometimes would travel to other nations to partake in the different flavors that they would have there. Though as always, it was difficult to enter the churchocracy as a race other than human. But that was where the speakeasies came into play.<br>
<br>
A scandal involving the Councilor representing The Fizz was removed from the country after a major scandal involving "relations" with "lesser races". It was profusely denounced as false, but the company was completely removed from any sales within the Churchocarcy.<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>The Fizz Company</u></span></b><br>
<br>
There was varying levels of success to their current blitz type venture.<br>
<br>
The eleven Kingdom has readily fallen to The Fizz and now follows in the footsteps of Griihass.<br>
<br>
A major setback has occurred in The Churchocracy as Holly Silverson has been accused of a major scandal that she denies. It has come to the attention of the Church that she was seen having relations with those of “lesser races”. She vastly denies these allegations and was greatly offended. The Fizz has been removed from the country.<br>
<br>
Clockwork City has become a new battleground with multiple countries vying for its control. But for now, it is having the majority of the market due to their numbers.<br>
<br>
The Deadlands are another land of competition, but they are greatly gaining the vampire population on their side due to their high numbers of the drink specific to their needs.<br>
<br>
The military has begun its full mobilization for open warfare. Currently, it has now assembled 50 Knights for direct warfare, with more coming soon.<br>

<i>Regi</i><br>
<br>
SpellHard. It looked odd, from here. Smoke rising from the city, how long had it been since he last been here? It felt like a lifetime ago, a lifetime ago where he taught a class that no one attended, where he was given an office far from the students, forgotten and left to the dust. And now? Now SpellHard was a shadow of what it once was. It had been led to ruination by a soda company. The very idea was laughable, almost as laughable as the armada that now followed in his wake.. created over soda.<br>
<br>
How.. How had his path brought him here? Back to this place, not as a hero, but a conqueror? Perhaps he would fall in the battle, a fitting place for his death, or perhaps he would burn the academy to the ground and forget about his time her, cosign this place to oblivion and be <i>done </i>with it all.<br>
<br>
"My lord? It is time," a feminine voice spoke.<br>
<br>
Regniald turned from the rail to look at Nadia.. who had taken to calling him 'My Lord' ever since they took Valley Gorge and Minosa. For a 'Lord', he certainly felt like a pitiful looking one.<br>
<br>
"Then launch the invasion. Wicked Brew falls today and SpellHard will fall in line, or be destroyed," Regi turned back to the city as numerous splashes filled the air as the mermaid guards, veterans of battle and taught new combat tricks and formation by the fallen Bandit Lord dived into water to launch the initial assault.<br>

<b>Actions</b><br>
1. Spend 600 gold on hiring Adventurers to deal with the rebels in Valley Gorge [2 200 gold teams and 4 50 gold teams! Give those rookies a chance to earn a rep]. The adventurers are to break up the cults, uncover members of the rebels and get them arrested, to bring them crashing down.<br>
<br>
<i>INVASION </i><br>
<br>
2. Spend 1,800 gold on the Invasion of SpellHard. 1,000 Gold will be spent on Adventurers, hiring 5 units of 200 Gold Adventuring teams to infiltrate SpellHard, disrupt the defenses, destroy any plans, and, most importantly of all, ensure Auridrex cannot escape. 800 Gold will be spent on Mercenaries and supplies for the invasion.<br>
<br>
Before the invasion begins, and to give time for the adventurers to work, Reginald will ensure surrender is made an option for all but Wicked Brew, those that throw down their arms and spells, would be spared and allowed to prosper under the new order. May backfire <b>[Keyword: Misunderstood]</b><br>
<br>
The Invasion will be much like the invasion of Valley Gorge. The naval forces of J'Kyon and Reginald will blockade the ports and hammer it from the sea. Mermaids <b>[Increased Fighting Capability] </b>will launch an amphibious assault against the, hopefully, weakened defenses and make room for the Bandits and Mercenaries to make land full and finish the assault.<br>
<br>
Reginald, himself, will take part in the assault using his knowledge of SpellHard to help guide them through the academy.. and move to end Wicked Brew once and for all<b> [Keyword: Powerful]</b>​</div></div>

The skeletal Kobold smiled merrily as he returned to his main work bench, quickly getting back into the creation of a new batch of their most recently proposed soda. This would be around the fifth version of it that he himself had created and he had no idea how many that the other three brew masters had created since the 'Devil's Delight' project had begun, but he had a feeling that they would soon crack the flavor on it. For now though he had best make sure that the reeds he was boiling would properly render down into the tea like mixture he wanted, no point wasting them after all!<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><span style="font-size: 26px"><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Duster Energy </span></span><br>
<span style="color: #efefef"><span style="font-size: 15px">Mr. Tonne walked down the glittering streets of CLOCKWORK CITY BABY! Scantily clad harpies followed behind him, and Sashi was at his side looking embarrassed to even be seen with the old pig. Onlookers gasped at the makeup clad e-girl army that walked down the streets handing out delicious gamer juice to all the goblins and coal-smeared workers. "See toots? This is where the REAL money is" said Tonne. Sashi looked to the glimmering heights and greased cogs that dotted the landscape around her. A steam powered limo-jalopy -monstrosity rolled up to the group, and a butler opened the door. Sashi jumped with fear and tried raking the vehicle. Tonne jumped back and yelled "What are you doing you crazy bitch?" </span></span><span style="font-size: 15px"><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #efefef">"WHAT IS THIS THING? IT'S TRYING TO EAT US!" Yelled Sashi. The once terrified butler started to laugh, and the scared bystanders all joined suit. It was infectious and before you knew it, the harpies were nervously laughing too. "It's a form of transportation Sashi" </span><br>
<br>
The group got in the car and was greeted by other Pigmen smoking cigars inside. They talked shop for the ride to Tonne Towers. When they departed, a steam airlift took everyone to the penthouse suite. Tonne lit up another cigar and pounded a few shots of whiskey. "Well Sashi, what do you think? This is my father's trade center...I know all the nice rooms here"  he said salaciously. <br>
<br>
"How do I feel?" She asked. "Like I'm going to fly around. These tall spires make me want to explore. Byeeee~" <br>
<br>
She flew off through an open window. The wind whipped across Sashi's face and wove through her feathers as she hit a hot updraft from a nearby forge. Though the air burned her lungs, this place felt...freeing. The University was tough to fly in since it was so dense and enclosed. But this place? It felt like home in a way. A metal, monstrous version of her home. A few of her sisters joined for the flight, and they flitted from building to building. <br>

They'd make a fine dinner, but this place had far too many eyes. For now they'd look and take in the sights. Work was going to be hard, as aggressive expansion was in the midst. But it was either this, or suffer like a caged bird.</span><br>

<br>
Sherlock smiled at them and waved his hands, "No need for that, the two of you are my seniors and I'm only dictator until the troubles plaguing our beloved country are over. Now, we shouldn't waste any more time. Each second is crucial, the Clockwork City will capitulate to our authority."<br>
<br>
....<br>
<br>
3 Councilors, 3 High-Level Adventuring Parties, 3 Seasoned Adventuring Parties, and 100 National Knights are present in the Clockwork City. They will make one final blitz which will allow the Fizz Company to take executive control of the city. Those who side with them will be awarded, and those who stand against them will be struck down, politically or physically.<br>

The enemy of one is the enemy of all and an attack on one is an attack on all the members of the alliance.<br>
<br>
As the armies of the Council of Grihaas are already mobilizing, the other 3 factions are also mobilizing their armies to prepare for a grand war. A vote was made to elect an alliance leader, and unsurprisingly, Sherlock Moriarty was made the leader of the alliance.<br>
<br>
Using his funds and the subsidy from the Council, Sherlock Moriarty hired an additional 10 High-Level Adventuring parties who will reinforce the forces of the alliance. Now, he can finally focus on taking over the remaining country on his list - the Deadlands. Resources and reinforcements began to arrive to help the Vampiric Clan be the undead leader of the deadlands.<br>

<b>YEAR 3, TURN 11: Spring</b><br>
<br>
Mr Xexion read the most recent news reports from all of the civilized countries in the Realm of Rodaxear. He was very pleased at all of the various tidbits of information that he was coming across.<br>
<br>
Warfare has continued outright in both the lands of SpellHard, Clockwork City, and the Deadlands. Two of the Soda Barons had begun to engulf locations at a very speedy rate. It would only become a matter of time before both of them would clash in the darkness that they were creating.<br>
<br>
Mr Xexion would eagerly watch and wait to find out what would happen next.<br>

<b><u><span style="font-size: 26px">Reginald’s Private Reserve</span></u></b><br>
<br>
<br>
Valley Gorge had been a place of hardship, one that seemed to never fully settle down. Which is why it was a good idea that so many Adventuring parties had heeded the call of Reginald’s Private Reserve.<br>
<br>
Six teams of Adventurers had turned over every stone, investigated or interrogated their way to get to the bottom of things. It turned out that a powerful adventuring group had been causing all their problems at hand.<br>
<br>
It took some time, but eventually they were overwhelmed through numbers and powers of the more improved Adventuring teams.<br>
<br>
In exchange for being let go, they revealed that they had been hired by the Brew Cult which was quickly routed out from its cult status in Valley Gorge, not being allowed to fully take route.<br>
<br>
—--------------------------------------<br>
<br>
The invasion of SpellHard.<br>
<br>
At first, the defensive army of SpellHard had been putting up a a fight, and a hell of one, especially since they were outnumbered in both strength and power from the invading army. However, it seemed as though one of the board members had realized that it was which way the tide of battle was going to swing and made sure to open up the gates of SpellHard for the invading army.<br>
<br>
In the end, they managed to take a hold of the land, losing only 9 Mermaids and 12 Bandits during the fighting before the fall and capture of the remaining Defensive Soldiers.<br>
<br>
Auridrex was captured during the battle along with his Brew Cult. His fate lays in the hands of Reginald.<br>

<br>
Trilroxan managed to easily blitz the government of the Deadlands, having them assassinated in a quick and ready action before anyone could prepare any defenses. Unfortunately, they could not anticipate the huge influx of the army of Griihass at their doorstep. <br>
<br>
Before Trilroxan could solidify his control over the region, gaining complete control of the fighting forces of The Deadlands, he was bumrushed by Griihass, overrunning his holdings and taking complete control of the Land.<br>
<br>
Due to his masterful planning of escape ports and throwing his minions to the wind, Trilroxan managed to escape back to Reginald controlled lands of Valley Gorge, now completely under the control of the Soda Baron, only managing to lose 10 guards in the process.

Things were going poorly. It seemed as though Reginald was outmanuerving him at every turn. He sent reinforcement supplies to Valley Gorge along with spreading the Brew Cult there, but he had sent even more adventuring parties to sniff them out, in huge numbers. How was one to be subversive against such odds?<br>
<br>
It seemed that now was the time to hunker down and prepare for the inevitable invasion. Which unfortunately did not take very long.<br>
<br>
The barbarians were at the gates.<br>
<br>
The Wizards and Knights were fighting back, making a dent with injuries and some deaths. Though the mermaids and bandits seemed to be a hearty bunch.<br>
<br>
Betrayal.<br>
<br>
One of the members of the Board had let the bastards in, causing the quick defeat of the Defensive army and their surrender.<br>
<br>
To the escape locations! That is what must be done. But somehow Reginald knew this as well. How?? How had he cut him off at every turn? How had he managed to best the intelligence of Auridrex with mere brute strength?<br>

The Mighty Mutated Dragon was captured and now his fate lay at the hands of Reginald.<br>

Clockwork city was a huge bust. As soon as they started to make progress there, Griihass moved in with their entire army and crushed the city, firmly placing it under their thumbs.<br>
<br>
Deadlands was also a huge bust. First, there was a change in government as Trilroxan took over after assassinating the leaders, but before he could fully consolidate power under his grasp, Griihass once again moved in and crushed all resistance.<br>

It looks like the only way to get ahead in this game was to choose a side. Either Griihass or Reginald……<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>10 by 10 Co</u></span></b><br>
<br>
Things had been going well for 10 by 10 co. They managed to expand their business through the speakeasies and even set up shop in Clockwork city in one of the failed soda baron’s locations on the cheap. Heck, they even managed to hire on a boss in order to make sure that things were moving much more smoothly there then they had ever been before. <br>
<br>
That was before THEY came. The council of Griihass swooped in and crushed all resistance, claiming complete control of the city in a matter of hours with their huge host that they had assembled. There was nothing that could be done.<br>
<br>
However, they managed to get all of their assets out of the city in tact and this flagrant violation of one of the most holy soda in the Churchocracy had raised the ire of the Holy Nation.<br>
<br>
They began to raise their army, currently numbering 100 Holy Warriors and 50 Inquisitors<br>
<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 26px"><u>The Fizz Company</u></span></b><br>
<br>
Things were going extremely well. Clockwork City and The Deadlands had fallen to the Soda Baron and Griihass. Two more nations that would not only benefit from The Fizz, but the government of the freest nation in the realm of Rodaxear.<br>
<br>
It was only a matter of time before all the other nations would fall before them. The Churchocracy, SpellHard, Mimosa and Valley Gorge.<br>
<br>
The final battles of this war would come and be brutal. But only one Soda Baron can come out on top.<br>
<br>
50 more Knights were raised to the banners.<br>

<i>Regi</i><br>
<br>
SpellHard had fallen. Many had died, both in the invasion and the defense. All for the whims of two mad creatures. There was no time to help, no time to rebuild, Sherlock Moriarty had made himself exposed, had divided his forces and so presented the best chance at eliminating him now and consolidating it all. To finish these 'soda wars' before they even began. With J'kyon, Reginald was the undisputed ruler of the seas, but that could be enhanced even further with the Mermaid Kingdom, if he can manage to achieve a military alliance with them. They could prove the deathknell to this 'alliance'. He knew the Deadlands had been taken, but he couldn't spare anything to take it, why chase the tail when he could cut off the head of the snake, itself? Deadlands would fall in the aftermath, to be swept up by his forces once the alliance collapsed. <br>
<br>
The only question remained, if he won, did he really want to live in this world he was creating through iron and blood? No.. he probably didn't. But if he lost, well, it wouldn't matter anymore.<br>

2. Now that the 'Alliance' has split its forces and Sherlock Moriarty had separated himself from the bulk of his forces in Clockwork, it was the time to strike. With the 'Dictator' killed, the alliance would likely crumble from infighting of the powerful councilmembers and member states. One great threat had been slain, one more remained. The Holy Church could be dealt with, if required, after the alliance had crumbled. The naval forces of J'Kyon and Reginald will blockade Clockwork, sinking anything that tries to come in or leave [Sinking! Not searching. No chances. Anything that tries to approach the blockade goes to the bottom of the sea]. Mermaids <b>[Increased Fighting Capability] </b>will launch an amphibious assault against the, hopefully, weakened defenses and make room for the Bandits and Mercenaries to make land full and finish the assault.<br>
<br>
800 Gold will be spent on Mercenaries and supplies for the invasion, 1,200 gold will be spent hiring 6 high eend adventure teams to disrupt defensives, but their primary purpose, and only real purpose, is to ensure Sherlock Moriarty doesn't escape... 2 50 gold Adventures will be hired [cause leftover coin] to cause disruption and help the invasion force. <br>
<br>

<br>
<span style="color: #000000">DET. BAUMSPILLER: Really Mr Smith? No-one?<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: We've got a who's who of every infamous criminal across the world lined up in front of you and you recognise nobody?</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)">(Inaudible)</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #000000">DET. BAUMSPILLER:  I guess you and your friends in the criminal fraternity aren't as thick as thieves, as the old saying goes, which is surprising, seeing how there were quite a few mentions of these 'upstanding' men and woman meeting up during the Tonic Takeovers. <br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: And in the illegal Speakeasies too.<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: But how would that be possible Mr Smith? How could all these people show up in the same place out of the blue...<br>
<br>
MR. SMITH: No Comment<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: ...and why?<br>
<br>
MR. SMITH: No Comment<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: I guess the why is the more interesting part, especially for what came next. But we'll come to that in a bit<br>
<br>
DET. FIZI: From various sources we've determined that these sit downs of the numerous notable criminal parties, was seemingly arranged by some other party unknown to us at the time. Our original theory was the various parties had gathered to discuss the subsequent black market dealings that possibly would occur during the ongoing fighting and rebuilding....<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: Wartime profiteering is such an ugly thing wouldn't you agree Mr Smith?<br>
<br>
MR. SMITH: No Comment</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)">DET. FIZI:..</span> <span style="color: #000000">But that's before we went back and did some digging and came across an unusual bit of evidence. A soiled bowler hat.<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: To be fair, we probably wouldn't have stumbled on to such a thing but lucky for us a vagrant had taken to living in the area. And to the hat.<br>
<br>
DET. FIZI: After some preliminary testing we found the damage and discolouration to the hat was from a unique type of acid.<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: And who wears a hat, and is full of acid?<br>
<br>
MR. SMITH: No Comment<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: The supposed head of the Ten by Ten Company. <br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: Hard to think that it could arrange such a gathering, let alone talk during it..<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: But then that's where you come in, Mr Smith<br>
<br>
DET. BAUMSPILLER: I'm guessing you were there, being your usual 'eloquent' self, and were perhaps pulling the strings...<br>
<br>
MR. SMITH: No Comment<br>

The assistant looked at Sherlock with shock and before she could say anything else, Sherlock spoke, "Yes. I will allow the battle to be brought to Clockwork City. Why wouldn't I?"<br>
<br>
...<br>
<br>
2000 Gold is spent to hire an additional 10 High-Level Adventuring Party<br>
1000 Gold is spent to hasten and support military mobilization and defensive preparations of Clockwork City.<br>
Alliance members continue to send reinforcements to Clockwork City.<br>
<br>
...<br>
<br>
- The Goblins will deploy mines around the Clockwork City, including the waters. The goblins are experts in mines and explosives, enemies will bleed if they wish to take the Clockwork City.<br>
<br>
- Sherlock Moriarty was teleported to a safe location.<br>
<br>
- 3 High-Level Adventuring Parties, 3 Seasoned Adventuring Parties, and 50 Grihaas Knights are tasked to solely guard the Executive/Dictator's Safehouse in the City in order to protect the Dictator and the Executives from all and any harm. Should the situation turns dire, they must guarantee the escape of the Dictator even at the cost of their lives.<br>
<br>
- The rest of the fighting force (50 Grihaas Knights, 195 Goblin Riflemen, and 10 High-Leveled Adventuring Parties) will face the enemies, attempting to prevent them from breaching the city, and countering any operations against the city and its forces. An executive order from the highest level was given, "Mercy is a luxury that the invaders cannot afford. Strike the evil, eliminate the threat, and restore peace to the realm."<br>
<br>
- The Alliance Army was ordered to return to the Clockwork City as fast as possible to reinforce it. If the invading forces are overwhelming, the defensive forces must attempt to buy as much time as possible for the reinforcements to arrive.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)"><span style="font-size: 26px">Duster Energy </span></span><br>
<span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-size: 15px">News of the university falling had hit Mr. Tonne like a...ton of bricks. The old pig was panicking. Pacing around his office. He had called the girls in to escort him to a safe location. This was done under the guise of "touring a new facility." It wasn't safe in Clockwork City anymore. His former home burnt. All of his investments at the university burnt. Nothing this bad had ever happened in his entire history of business. Nothing had ever failed this spectacularly before. A fucking military takeover of all things. </span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-size: 15px">Sashi and her cadre walked through the doors nonchalantly. Tonne was chewing on his cigar and all but messing his pants. </span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-size: 15px">"Ah! Ladies! W-we will be taking a look at our new setup in the deadlands"</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-size: 15px">Sashi smirked. "Oh. The one that failed? Just like the one here?" Her eyes were cheerful when she said this. </span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-size: 15px">"No....no we just need to put more money into it. In fact, I'll give you a new loan! 0% APR too. I think we can make this work"  said Tonne with a cough. He took his cigar out of his mouth and ashed it in the tray with shaking hands. </span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-size: 15px">Sashi clasped her talons together and rested her face in them cartoonishly. "Anything for you boss!" She stepped towards him, still beaming. Tonne relaxed a bit. Maybe things would be alright after all. </span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-size: 15px">Suddenly, Sashi bludgeoned the pig in the temple, knocking him out cold. </span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-size: 15px">"Alright. Tie him up and stuff his fat ass in the car. I heard the guy that wrecked that shitty university was powerful. I say we roast this pig as a peace offering." </span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-size: 15px">She clenched her talons with the determination of a harpie hunting her prey. "This Reginald's heart will be mine. Audrix standing me up was the best thing that ever happened to me" she declared to her cadre."</span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><br>
They all nodded in agreement. <br>
<br>
==================<br>
<br>
The car ride to find Reginald was a bit...bumpier than expected. Craters from the war and the dead bodies were obnoxious obstacles. At one point, a dying soldier caught Sashi's eye. She jumped out swiftly and ran to him. The man reached a trembling hand to her face. "Water....please....I need water." She rolled her eyes and slashed his throat deftly. It was far too long since she had human. <br>
<br>
Sashi called Meera from the car caravan, and the duo indulged in some nice fallen soldier. Meera politely waited for Sashi to take the first cut. Sashi noticed this and smiled. "No hun, you first. I insist." Delighted, Meera unzipped the soldier's flesh like butter with her talon. She pulled his kidney out and took a hearty chomp. "So sash," she said between chews, "do you think this plan of yours is going to work?"<br>
<br>
Sashi ripped the man's heart out and took a small nibble. "Well here's the way I see it Meera. One of two things happens. Either this works and we survive, or they just kill us on sight. If the plan fails, we won't be around to care anymore." <br>
<br>
Meera pulled out the man's liver. "OH SHIT! I just remembered Biff and Regina. I hope they're not dead. And our little goblin pal." Sashi stopped rummaging around in the soldier's ribcage. She did like the little goblin. "I hope he's ok. I don't even really remember his name. But he was funny. Maybe he's still alive. He's coming back to the badlands if he's still alive. He'd make a FINE jester." <br>
<br>
==================<br>
<br>
The rest of the ride felt almost bittersweet. Sashi felt like this era of her life was coming to a close. No more adventures. No more scheming behind Tonne's back. She talked quietly in the back with  Meera while everyone else was asleep. They recounted tales of getting drunk at bars, meddling in local homecomings, and blowing all of their salaries on frivolous things. <br>
<br>
Even though Tonn was a horrible, traitorous pig, they had grown somewhat attatched to him. He'd make a <b>fine </b>dinner though, and it would be enough to honor his memory. <br>
<br>
"Do you really think I will be able to pull it off Meera? I got rejected by a fucking mutant dragon stuffed in a suit of armor....am I ugly?" <br>
<br>
Meera shook her head. Her face was slightly flushed from the wine she was drinking. "YOU are HOT! Audrix was just too afraid to get with you. He probably had a small dick anyways."<br>
<br>
The duo embraced. It would all be over soon.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">Actions </span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255)">* Find Regi to tithe all resources to him. Also offer Regi the roasted corpse of Tonne (if he's so inclined). Also possibly make some moves on Regi. These will be both of my actions so I EXTRA SUCCEED (pls trek). </span></div>

<b>YEAR 3, TURN 12: Summer</b><br>
<br>
Mr Xexion read the most recent news reports from all of the civilized countries in the Realm of Rodaxear. He was very pleased at all of the various tidbits of information that he was coming across.<br>
<br>
Warfare continued throughout the lands. The two Warlords were fighting each other at every pass, gulping up any company or kingdom that fell into their path. It would all be over soon, he knew the drill. Soon enough there would only be one warlord left. One warlord left with everything while the other had nothing.<br>
<br>
Mr Xexion would eagerly watch and wait to find out what would happen next.<br>

<br>
<br>
The fighting was intense. The mermaid vanguard rushed in and managed to disable to Mines and reposition them towards the sea lanes that the Griihass reinforcements were attempting to get through. This caused massive delays and some destruction on the incoming reinforcements. They would in no way make it in time to fight in the battle of Clockwork City.<br>
<br>
Charging into battle, RPR had the armies of 100 Raging Orcs, 150 Mermaid Warriors, 150 Mercenary Soldiers, 56 Mermaid Guards, 18 Bandit Warriors 15 Wizards, 20 SpellKnights, 11 High End parties, 2 Low Parties<br>
<br>
The defensive line not defending Sherlock was: 50 Grihaas Knights, 195 Goblin Riflemen, 10 High level parties,<br>
<br>
Defense of Sherlock only: 50 Grihaas Knights, 3 High Parties, 3 seasoned parties<br>
<br>
<br>
If Sherlock had not separated his forces within the city, it would have been more likely that the battle would have gone in his favor. Morale was on high with The Fizz. The people were ready for what they had already captured and what they now felt was theirs by right.<br>
<br>
But RPR had numbers on their side. Their morale was not as high as it could have been. Some among the army was wondering if they were doing the right thing. But others quickly silenced that thought.<br>
<br>
The mermaids especially were thinking about having a huge mermaid empire. They would finally be able to expand. And it was all thanks to one man. The Mage, Reginald.<br>
<br>
The orcs of the vanguard were tanking shots from the goblins or going down in a hail of fire. There was no middle ground here. They were itching for a good fight and this was one that would go down in the ages. The Battle of Clockwork City.<br>
<br>
As the orc line made it to the gates, they found the gates had been opened. Apparently there were some people within the city that had been unhappy with The Fizz takeover. It didn’t take much, other than an invading army of about equal size<br>
<br>
As they fought through the city, Reginald was at the forefront, charging through the personal guards that had been left behind from the fighting. Reginald was like a man possessed. Blasting with powerful magic as mermaids and orcs cut down the enemy before them.<br>
<br>
Finally, they arrived at Sherlock? And without a hesitation, Reginald had cut him down. Without him, The Fizz would fall. And with it, The Council.<br>
<br>
Soon all would be his. There was just the matter of the remaining Alliance army making its way towards Clockwork City.<br>
<br>
DUSTER ENERGY has given all its current resources as a tithe to Reginald. Totaled at 2000 GP. The roasted Corpse of Tonne is also offered (If he is inclined to it.) The Harpi Sashi is also attempting to make moves on Reginald if he is inclined. (Diplomacy)<br>
<br>
The Company 10 by 10 is open to negotiations with both factions and offering White Mana flavored with Red Ichor to produce Healing Potions. (Diplomacy)<br>

Casualties for RPR: 50 Mercenary Soldiers, 50 Raging Orcs, 8 SpellKnights, 6 Bandit Warriors, 2 Low Level Parties   <br>

<br>
Souls began flying towards TRiloxan at a prodigious rate. It seemed that many had partaken in the poisoned drink. Especially those within the armies of The Fizz. Perhaps that was what helped the downfall of the army at Clockwork City.<br>
<br>
It can be hard to say, but Triloxan felt much more powerful. He had easily gained at least 50 souls within the season. And chances are high that more would follow soon.<br>
<br>
Following Reginald seemed to have greatly improved his position for gaining great power and claiming his rightful place within his homeland.<br>

Those that exits beneath the law have all assembled before 10 by 10. They have seen how well the speakeasies have flourished, even with the war going on between RPR and The Fizz. That fact alone has offered them many admirers.<br>
<br>
It wasn’t long before they had access to crime syndicates and gangs in all the nations, gaining access to products through the many speakeasies that had been opened in the nations.<br>
<br>
It seemed that it would continue to flourish. Even more so with the battles occurring in Clockwork City.<br>

He was finally able to summon hellfire, an ability that had been eluding him for<i> far </i>too long. He could feel it though, he could feel the strength, <i>the power, </i>that he had been searching for oh so long. Sixty souls were now his to claim, sixty that would be tortured eternally when he reclaimed his place eventually. He could feel it though, he wasn't anywhere near ready to attempt that yet. No, he would continue to rip souls from these useless mortals and take them for his own. He would wade into the battles himself and rip and tear, none would be safe, and all would be his to take. <br>
<br>
"DUL, gather the workers. We march back to the Deadlands, and we reclaim our homes!" Trilroxan called to the Orc, his form shifting as he spoke. As he stood and strode forwards, he shifted fully into his demonic form for the first time. Black scales covered his form and twisting horns sprouted from his head, wings pushed out of his back and sprayed black liquid against the wall, and claws formed on his fingers. As he chuckled his voice deepened and his teeth grew sharp and pointed, the final transformations finishing slowly.<br>
<br>
"Yes Master Trilroxan!" The Orc in question's own skin began to darken and scales seemed to appear near his eyes, the feedback of his claimed soul beginning to manifest in more physical ways. "We are ready to fight!"<br>
<br>
"And fight we shall!"<br>
