"i'm just digging my grave at this point so i'll just be quiet and go questing" - King Lali

That is right folks. The King has been questing as of late after a client crash or mishaps a while back. Anyway, I know I'm late with this, but yesterday, I couldn't be bothered to stay up late to post this RA, at the risk that I will more than likely forget things if I posted it late, so...here we are. One day late and a lesser risk of points being missed. Let's get this ball rolling.

====He's called the 'Hidden Paw'...====

To start off things with, this Royal Address; Master-At-Arms Alake has stepped down from her role, once again, being forced to IRL with various activities and things. Who is our new Master-At-Arms if Alake stepped down, you ask? As per tradition, it is none other than her 2ic, Campo. So, do be courteous and congratulate him on his promotion.

SubClans

While this may be filler to most, this is for those who are curious on how they rank up in the Kingdom. While two-chevron ranks are quite common in the clan, that is also by choice of the clanmates. If you wish to be a higher rank, we are always open to our clanmates looking for activities in our SubClans: The Architects, The Dragon Knights, and the Guards. Feel free to ask anyone about the different SubClans and point you towards one or more that may interest you. The following are brief summaries of each:

The Architects
-The Architects are involved with all things related to Citadel management. Capping and all things Skilling in the Kingdom. This is also the SubClan to look at, if you are interested or ambitious enough to help out with becoming an Avatar Warden. At the choice of the Director, he can hand pick an Architect to become an honorary Avatar Warden. However, all that is needed are three, and two are filled. If you are interested, join the Architects.

The Dragon Knights
-Bossing. Bug Bashing. Kalphite King Krusaders (lol). If PvM is your speed the Dragon Knights will do their best to fill that lust of boss slaying that tends to be a specific itch that players need scratched. If you are are new to bossing or unsure of your own skills in being able to solo a specific boss, go see a Dragon Knight to see if they will go boss with you or offer you advice on specific bosses or mobs.

The Guard
-The Guards are the face of Varrock and -c-

-c-protect our fair city. One can argue that the Dragon Knights do that as well, by defending from monsters. The fine difference, is the specialties of the two. The Guards deal with every day happenings within the city while the Dragon Knights tend to be viewed as monster slayers. If this summary doesn't help...the Guards are mostly roleplay and can be found performing sentry duties at the Castle or patrolling the city.


====It's all about that XP Gain...====

That is right. Another DXP Weekend is right around the corner. The day DXP starts is on Friday, February 26, 2016 at 12pm UTC. For those who are in the states here are the following time conversions:

7am EST
6am CST
5am MT
4am PST

I do hope these time conversions help, for those who are more oriented on that XP gaining, and also, for those who take this type of weekend seriously, I would not advise trying to get materials the starting day. If anything, start gathering now to prevent a bit of heart ache. With that said, Happy 'Scaping for the DXP Weekend!

====Blarghle!====

So, after a few hiccups...looks like the Hunger Games event will be postponed once again, due to this weekend being DXP weekend and people getting as much XP as they possibly can. If Lali's nutty enough after his questing, we shall see.


====The Varrock Titan?! Where!====

Also, I'm sure that most people have heard that Campo has also taken charge of the TVT. If you are interested in getting an interview in the TVT try to catch him online or let him know that you are interested and would like to make a debut in the TVT.


===="Ohana means family, family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten"====

Also, our dear Princess has started up the Families of Varrock again. Do take a peek at that if you are interested in adding roleplay flavor to the Kingdom. For details, do talk to her about that and the do's and don'ts. The Families are not quite like SubClans, but along the lines of individuals in the clan forming their own group without being a subclan and it is quite fun and gets interesting roleplay-wise, from what I hear. You can always join one or form your own. Again, for details, ask Sora.

-----------------
Well, that is pretty much all there is this week in regards to the Royal Address. I'm hoping there might be a meeting this weekend, if there is...it will be at 2pm on Saturday, however, if you would like to see it pushed up to a different date, do let us know below or catch us online and PM us or another Royal who will rally either Lali or myself a message. With that said, Happy 'Scaping, KoVies!

You may now post.

I swear, I spoil you guys with color... ^_^

EDIT: Tried so hard to not miss a point. Still did. I'm going to sleep. That is your dose of antics from me for the day.

EDIT 2: NO REST FOR THE WEARY, I SWEAR.... *breaks quill and shoots bedroom door clean off with a cannon in rage*

Lali, you should ask a Professional if you're grave-digging, this may help you and speed up the process. I know a few people who would be glad to give a hand. Khan of Goshima, master of the order of the damned.

Unknown Location, Hallowlands Province

Operative: Deacon status: MIA, presumed captured.



Jon Church opened his eyes as the cart came to a halt. His captors sneered and jeered in the harsh Vyrric language. They must have been j**inates, as they had no membranous wings. Shackeled in front and back, they led him into a small stone structure, which Church happened to notice was the only entry into a large, walled compound. He could see no motte, so he assumed it to be some sort of settlement or arena. Before long, a massive, grey-skinned Vampyre approached him. He must have been wealthy, as his wings were decorated with gold chains and baubles. Church stared into him, silent. The Vyre spoke in hushed, passively hostile tones.

"You are VSS, yes?

Church blinked and repeated the same words he'd been saying for hours now to another Vyre.

"Captain Travin Steeple, Royal Varrockian Army. 77th Scouts. 115690."

The Vyre chuckled slightly, shaking his head.

"This is no good. I know you are not a soldier," He motioned to the chest behind and to the left of him, being sat down in a corner of the room.

"Your equipment is of such quality. Not standard issue, you see."

Church spat in his face. The Vyrelord recoiled momentarily, then smiled at him, wiping his grotesque face with a small, black handkerchief.

"Very good. You have will to fight. This I will allow you to do."

The Vyre turned about, and pulled a curtain against the wall, revealing a small table adorned with melee weapons of all types. He then turned to Church, bowed and left wordlessly. A human steward approached him and removed his bindings.

"Stand up sir, *'lord wishes for you to prove your mettle in the pit."

Church blinked once or twice, and allowed the man to remove his bindings. He said nothing.

"I suppose you might wonder what that is," The young man said.

"The pit is a fighting ring. Fights are to the death, and no holds are barred. I suppose that m'lord would like you learn more about the way you Varrockian specials fight. He's pitted the division champions against you."

Church grunted, and allowed to man to lead him to the counter of weapons.

"Any strike your fancy?" The young man was clearly enthused about the pit. Church shook his head slightly, staring into the young man and imagining whether or not he should break his neck and run.

"But.. sir. I have to suggest you arm yourself. These men you will fight, they are masters of spear and shield. Swordfighters. Mace wielders. Very dangerous types! You won't last long unarmed."

Church closed his eyes and rubbed his temples. He ached for tarromin. He spoke, his words sandpaper.

"If I need a weapon, there will be plenty on the ground."

The young man stared wide eyed for a few seconds, then nodded. "Very.. well sir. Right this way."

Church emerged from the small structure into a large coliseum-like structure. He noted that the floor was mostly grated iron. He surmised that beneath the floor was a large, pan-like structure for the collection of blood. There were also no large buildings, which led Church to deduce that he was not yet in the inescapable fortress city of Meiyerditch.

An announcer began to give color commentary to a few hundred, pale human and j**inate observers in the stands.

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! WELCOME TO TODAY'S NEWEST EDITION OF THE FIGHT PIT! WE HAVE A SPECIAL CONTENDER LINED UP FOR YOU TODAY!"

The crowd shouted and screamed weakly. It was clear that they saw much bloodshed before this point. He must not have looked special to them. Perhaps the Vyres thought putting on a display of a Varrockian 'soldier' being killed in front of them would lower underlying support for the Crown in the region.

How wrong they were.
