Orders from the Lord Commander Many trials await us as we work to build our city into a jewel of the Underdark, below are the directives of the Lord Commander. The Heralds of Knowledge, Discipline and Vigilance will also post their own orders for the Vanguard as well. Vanguard Matters -Assessment and Assignment All Vanguard personnel who are currently a pair of idle hands or are eager and willing for more work are to report to the Lord Commander immediately for their skills to be assessed and assigned. -Testing for Ability Faerns of the Vanguard are to assess the magical potential of Nec'perya's young and report their findings. -Skilled Labour We need various kinds of skilled labour to meet the needs of the Vanguard, listed from most important to least, the Vanguard requires: Sawyers, Carpenters, Stonemasons, Cooks, Engineers, Archeologists Notify the Lord Commander if you have such skills or have a contact who does. Reconstruction -Clearance of Rubble The rubble needs to be cleared from the various buildings and made accessible -Resource Gathering We require many resources for reconstruction, primarily we will need stone and lumber to rebuild the city. Gather these resources and place them within the Vanguard Donations chest. -Rebuild the Towers The towers are our bulwarks against the skum infestation that surrounds us, initial materials will be put towards rebuilding them. Ship Building -Resource gathering To upgrade the barges to become vessels fully capable of traversing the waterways within the Underdark, we will need resources. These resources are as follows: *Planks of ironwood/ any other kind of wood *Ingots of adamantite *Ingots of normal iron/ black iron/ cold iron *Ingots of steel/ dark steel *Ingots of mithral *Bolts of spider silk Acquire these resources and place them within the Vanguard Donations chest. Golem Construction -Flesh Golems All hands that are able to sew flesh or wounds together and willing to use their skills, report to myself or the Herald of Knowledge for instructions to create further flesh golems to consolidate the city's defenses. //IE: Any with the leatherworking job or points in the heal skill. -Iron Ingots We still require a vast number of iron ingots, the Vanguard is to collect iron ingots when possible and deposit it within the Vanguard Donations Chest. All iron ore is to be directed to Gauss'dril of House Vilrath for processing. Food Acquisition -Foraging When travelling, Vanguard personnel are to keep an eye out for any potential food source that can be foraged. Any food that can be acquired is to be placed within the Vanguard Donations chest where its edibility will be checked and distributed to the population. Naltyrr Lord Commander |

Lord Commander, I have placed the following items in the Vanguard Donation Chest: 3 Animal Skin 3 Zurstalk 20 Bluecap As we spoke about before the Bluecap is our best for food supply at this time as it takes only a cook to make mass quantities of Sporebread. The other uses for Bluecap is Pure Alcohol via an Alchemist which in turn can be used in multiple applications. The Zurstalk is used to make Zurstalk Jerky, but from my time working with it I believe it can be used as a wood substitute. It would require some hardening and such but its in my notes as something to do when time allows if you wish? I will continue to work on planting more Bluecap and some Barrelstalk as we previously spoke about. |

Lord Commander, I have been busy as you ordered working on our food issue. I have added an additional 30 Bluecap crop ready to make food for our glorious city. I have also placed a sample of flour which I can make through my milling. This flour can be used for cooking. I intend to further my knowledge in the aspect of cooking, as it seems we are need of one but also because it interests me. I am also actively seeking out knowledge regarding the skill of Ingredients trader like we spoke about before. This skill will allow me to better do my job not only as a Mushroom Farmer but as a Miller and Cook. Unen, Soldier of the Vanguard |

I have just returned from a successful skirmish on the surface Elves. I count five dead, out of the five there were four non-important surfacers, and one follower of shevarash. They were all obliterated by my spells and none were left standing. Know that I acted out of self-defence and only defended myself from the Dartiir who attacked me, but I can still call it a successful event since I came out gloriously victorious! I placed a symbol of Lolth onto the ground to show them who conquered them. Sadly there was no time to retrieved any of the bodies as i were to close to Winya itself and reinforcements were soon coming. Lolth tu malla! Yours Ulviir'aufein d'vilrath |

A pop and hiss is heard as a portal opens in Nec'perya. Out of the opening floats a large tarp, bulging with whatever lay beneath, followed by a desiccated mummy and a grey clad figure in blood red shoes. “Come, come, do naut tarry”, the red shod figure marches off in the direction of the Vanguard Headquarters without a glance at the nearby guards. “Xas, this one is aware of thine age... keep up anyway”, in response to a moan from the shuffling mummy. Holding open the door to the office, “Xas, all the way in the back. And do avoid anything...sticky.” In the vanguard offices the tarp is pulled away to reveal a desk painted red and an ornate chair bordering on being a throne. The tarp is quickly set up over the desk to shed the constant dripping and the red shod figure casts several cushions upon the chair before finally turning to the mummy. “Now, sit in the chair and glare at anyone that may wander too close. Feel free to eat anything that is naut female or in a uniform, or slaves, we need those working naut stuffed in a closet, this one knows dos...” And with that the red shod figure takes several minutes casting spells over the mummy. Nodding to himself, he departs, leaving only an image of himself sitting at the desk, glaring at anyone that might come by. |

Though it is perhaps a bit unorthodox for the Ul'ath'tallar in her more or less 'hands off' fashion in which she allows the Vanguard to conduct day to day affairs, she nonetheless places a posting in the Vanguard headquarters. It is of the typical finely crafted parchment that her notices are written upon, and at the bottom is the same spider design with eyes glowing from darkvision powder. A copy of the posting is also delivered to the Sut'rinos and three Zanjuren. To all Vanguard members: It should go without saying that our power does not reach into another settlement, however it is apparent this must be reiterated. You are the Vanguard of Nec'perya, nowhere else. When in other settlements such as L'Obsul or Underport you will comport yourselves to their laws, just as they would be required to adhere to ours. Conflict cause by Nec'perya within another settlement such as L'Obsul runs the risk of endangering our trade relations, which will in turn slow our city's growth. The consequences of allowing this to happen shall be dire. Do not be rash, and remember to emulate the spider in what you do. Remain vigilant to threats to our home and against the Dread Queen. If you witness something, keep watch of it and report. Should you need to strike, do so in uncontested territory. If you are instructed to conduct open aggression in L'Obsul or Underport by anyone you will respectfully decline under my authority. I will not have Nec'perya harmed by ill-thought plans and I will continue to do what is necessary to safeguard the Valsharess' jewel. If there is an issue with this, any are welcome to inquire with myself. In addition, no one not ranked within either the Temple or Vanguard, or the Ust'ilharess herself, should be given any sensitive information nor should they be allowed casual access to vanguard information. A simple security lapse can cause grave repercussions. Lolth tlu malla! -Ul'ath'tallar Zrae'a'stra'fryn- |

Shortly after the departure of the former Sutrinos, a large working party of slaves led by a well dressed human with rather nice shoes and a large tattoo of the numbers five and two on his arm arrive at the Vanguard Headquarters. With an officious demeanor and a key of his own the party proceeds inside and moments later carry out a large bright red desk. The human pauses in reflection in the entry way, then speaks quietly to several of the slaves. Quickly they run back inside and take measurements of the former sutrinos's office chair. Done with their task, they and the desk depart the area in the flash of a portal opening. |
