Weapons

2026-11-01T08:51:09Z

Mfell: Weapons? Updated! Some minor wording additions, and clarification on Spell Balls as In-World Items (they are not) as well as on Throwing Weapons used in melee combat (they cannot be). Have a look and refresh yourself with the knowledge of weapons and their types!

Weapons in Concord are sorted into a variety of categories to make classification easy. Certain characters will have the ability to use certain weapons and certain magical items will require a certain appearance. Many weapons also have particular abilities associated with them. Each character may only carry up to three weapons at a time. This includes shields as a single 'weapon', and up to 3 throwing weapons as a single weapon.

Weapons must represent weapons in order to be counted as weapons. No other LARP Safe items such as but not limited to kitchen utensils, vegetables, or foam fish will be accepted. All weapons should be befitting a Fantasy-Medieval setting. No chainsaws.

Check out [[Combat]] and [[Combat Skills]] for more information of experience requirements as well as mechanical information.

'''Short Weapon'''

A weapon of 50cms or less total length. Short weapons do not count as an occupied hand.

'''One Handed Weapon'''

A weapon with a total length between 50cm and 115cm wielded in one or two hands.

Granted ability: ''Fracture - Strike the target in a limb. Expend one energy. Call “Fracture”.''

'''Great Weapon'''

A weapon with a total length between 115cm and 180cm in the style of a two handed sword, axe, hammer or other similar weapon. This weapon must be used to strike in two hands, unless you have the Hand-and-a-Half skill. May be used defensively in a single hand regardless.

Your dominant hand is considered occupied for all other purposes while wielding a great weapon. If you wish to cast a spell, or perform any other action requiring a free hand while wielding a great weapon, you must take a hand off the weapon.

Granted ability: ''Knockback - With two hands on the weapon and the strike originating from behind you, strike the target, call ‘Knockback’. Spend one energy. Knockback affects the target even if parried by a shield or a weapon''

'''Polearm'''

A weapon with a total length between 140cm and 220cm in the style of a halberd, quarterstaff or similar pole weapon. May have multiple striking points. This weapon must be used to strike with two hands, and may be used defensively in one hand.

Polearms longer than 220cm may be accepted on a case by case basis, if you are unsure check in with the Concord Team.

Your dominant hand is considered occupied for all other purposes while wielding a polearm. If you wish to cast a spell, or perform any other action requiring a free hand while wielding a polearm, you must take a hand off the weapon.

Granted ability: ''Shackle - Strike the target in the leg. Expend one energy. Call ‘Shackle’.''

'''Bow'''

A bow with a draw weight of 28lbs or less. Must be used in two hands to fire IDV branded arrows with either the round or flat head. Archers may carry as many arrows as they wish.

* Arrows deal varied damage based on location and armour struck.
* Arrows that strike a limb deal 2 Damage and apply the '''Fracture''' effect. This effect can be blocked by medium or heavy armour, but the 2 Damage still occurs.The arrow must strike an item of costume that is medium or heavy armour for this to occur.
* Arrows that strike the torso deal 4 Damage. If the arrow strikes medium armour on the torso, it instead deals 3 Damage. If the arrow strikes heavy armour on the torso, it instead deals 2 Damage.
* There is a separate [[Archery Clearance Document|clearance]] if you wish to use a bow on the battlefield.
* Bows should not be used to strike or be struck. If you parry with your bow, you must take the damage.
* Archers are not permitted to shoot at targets within five metres.

'''Shield'''

A shield with a maximum diameter of no more than 90cm including foam edging around all sides and with a maximum area of 6400cm2 and a maximum length of 110cm. A shield only provides protection if worn on the arm or held in the hand. A shield worn anywhere else will count as a hit location. A shield counts as a weapon for the sake of carrying purposes.

'''Throwing Weapon'''

A coreless weapon, no more than 30cm in length. Up to three throwing weapons can be taken as a single weapon for carrying purposes. Throwing Weapons do not occupy a hand. Throwing Weapons cannot be used or classified as Short Weapons, such as for Artisan Crafts, and may not be used in melee combat.

'''Spell Ball'''

Sometimes called a spell packet, a spell ball is a piece of cloth or fabric, filled partially with native safe birdseed and tied up with twine or rope to make a "ball". These are listed for completeness, and do not count as a carried weapon. They may not be used as throwing weapons. Spell Balls are a physical representation of magical effects as required by the medium of play, and are not to be considered In-World items.

Potions

2026-11-01T08:06:38Z

Mfell: Removed mention of old Character Bag system. You don't need to give us your unused potions, unless you want to. I have an addiction to Warbrew. I can be trusted.

The [[Apothecary|Apothecaries]] of the Concord have a variety of potions at their disposal that can bolster, heal and enhance their drinkers. Potions are represented at Concord events by an item card and a phys-rep.
=What are Potions?=
Potions are brews composed by the magical herbs found on Esterra. These are created by characters with the Apothecary skill (although they may call themselves something different). These potions provide a quick rejuvenating effect or perhaps a powerful improvement and should form a part of every adventurers arsenal.

The common understanding is that potions are not 'magical' in the same way that a mage is magical. Rather they are a sort of science that isolates the various traits of herbs found in Southern Esterra and processes them in a particular manner to produce an effect.

During play potions must be physically represented (Phys-rep/ped) by a potion prop. This could be a small (plastic) vial with some sort of material inside, a salve in a container or something similar. The potion card '''MUST''' be physically attached to the potion phys-rep. Cards that are not attached to phys-reps are assumed to be spent.
=Crafting a Potion=
Potions are made by gathering the required herbs and giving them to the Exchange Storyteller, who will provide the apothecary with the appropriate item card. The apothecary is required to have a physical representation of the potion, which does not need to be drunk, but should appear fitting.

The process of crafting potions is not without danger. It often involves dangerous reagents being treated through unorthodox manners, arcane elements, and foul gasses. While the human body is durable, it does need some time to overcome the toxicity of this process, lest it succumb to a wide variety of toxic wounds. For more details on this system consult the [[Apothecary]] page.
=Using a Potion =
It takes five seconds of appropriate roleplay to consume a potion. You cannot engage in any other activity while you do this. Being interrupted does not waste the potion. You may not feed yourself a potion while in Bleed-out, although you may have one fed to you.

Once a potion is consumed, we would appreciate it if you could return the item card to the Exchange Storyteller, although there generally is not a rush. Unused potions should be kept alongside their Phys-Rep where possible, even outside of Events.
=Tonics=
Some potions are marked as ‘Tonics’, a character can only be under the effect of one tonic at a time, with a new tonic replacing the effect of an old one.
*Al-Asah’s Antidote
*Arcmages Spirit
*Blessed Water of the Questing Knight
*Concoction of Bright Morning
*Concoction of the Cold Night
*Guardians Memory
*Ironblood Tonic - Now Referred to as Leechbane
*Rhythm of the Spheres
*Soulfire
*Starblood
*Times Absence

Spring 226 Interlude

2026-10-14T11:46:38Z

Mfell:

== Overview ==
Welcome to the Interlude page for the Spring 226 Summit! This Wiki Page aims to assist in providing clarity for Downtime and other events that have resulted from Player action at the most recent Summit. On this page you can find the Downtime Submission link, public Special Actions, Council decisions and far more!

Everything you can find here in the Interlude page will also hopefully assist in providing some further reasoning to actions between Summits. For the most part, The Winds of the World themselves will answer a lot of these questions, but '''all information found here can be considered to be known in character'''! This will help for folks running Sanctioned Events, or at Game Hen Events, by providing at least a baseline understanding of what will be happening in the early stages of the Season between Summits.

In regards to Downtime itself, please note that as always '''not everyone needs to submit a Downtime'''! If you are not an Artisan, planning on taking any Special Actions (either public or known to you), and you just want to produce as standard for your Investment, then don’t feel like you have to submit. However, if getting involved in shenanigans is for you, then have a read below to work out if there is anything you can get involved in that is publicly available!

There will always be Special Actions that are private, or locked to particular Investments, Archetypes, Realms and more. '''If it is not mentioned in this Interlude Page, and you do not know what it is, we ask that you do not select it!'''

'''The Deadline for Downtime Submissions is 5pm Monday the 19th of October, 2026'''

'''[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc4IX0rpzapJeAwZYv4XeyCf9oaHz5xaC_Fyh6YqmkBtGuJRw/viewform Downtime Form Link Here!]'''

[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfkNhVSJc1aN-tGQPhuyRrLnF67aBjgTURN4zN3_F3N2Ygc8g/viewform Enterprise Form Link Here, for Band Leaders!]

'''Please note that the Deadline for Enterprise Downtime Submissions is the same as for regular Downtime.'''

== Councils and Choices ==
As always, the various Councils of The Concord have been busy making decisions, declarations and more. In particular, the choices of The Senate, The Church and The Warchamber are all worth knowing to both the people of Southern Esterra and the heroes of The Concord. While it may take some time for The Civil Service to publish these documents, they can be found here;

* [[Senate Motions - Spring 226|Senate Motions]]
* [[Motions of the Concordian Church Spring 226|Church Motions]]
* [[Military Orders - Spring 226|Military Orders]]

Before 225, Military Orders were not made public in the same way as Senate and Church Motions until the release of The Winds of the World. The Team is hoping that by making these actions public from the get go, it can provide clarity for both Downtime and roleplay between Events.

== Investments and Downtime ==
The below section will cover the specific details that are important for particular Investments. A lot of this information is clearly listed in the Downtime Form itself, or in the Investments page, but by also adding it below it can give a bit more flavour for those who may not have had an idea of what they wanted to do!

In addition, if there are any Special Actions relating to an Investment that are public knowledge, they will be listed here too alongside a brief description! If you don’t see your Investment listed, it just means that there are no additional notes that may be relevant to you for Downtime and the Interlude, beyond the narrative of last Season’s Winds and the Winds yet to come.

=== Military Investments ===
The list of actions a Military Investment can take are varied, but detailed here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting an Army or Fortification, Scouting the Frontline, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Military Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support an Army or Fortification are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Military to Scout the Frontline will find that they are only able to select Territories adjacent to Concordian held land. This focuses the intent of this action and provides much more substantial and meaningful results. There is no current list for applicable Territories and benefits or consequences for choosing them, however it can be expected that each Territory will be heavily impacted by Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative at play in that area. All Territories that can be chosen for Scouting are listed in the Downtime Form for ease!

==== Public Special Actions - Military ====

==== Guard Convoys ====
This Special Action represents Military Investments providing aid for the other Concordian Heroes travelling in and out of Villacres in the coming Season. Villacres may not have an enemy Army present, but it is no less a dangerous place full of Zekartaal and other threats. If this option is taken, Characters will find that their Military Investment produces a random amount of income between 1-3 Locks, and that the other Public Special Actions are less likely to face danger as they are supported by military-minded heroic allies.

However if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then the presence of The Concord (military or otherwise) in Villacres may attract greater attention from its enemies, or cause unwanted friction with its locals.

=== Naval Investments ===
The list of actions a Naval Investment can take are just as varied as a Military, but often far more outgoing. Detailed information can be found here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting a Fleet, Trade with Foreign Ports, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Naval Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support a Fleet are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Naval Investment to Trade with Foreign Ports will find a list of known Ports to trade with in the Downtime Form! Some of these Ports can be found across the Wiki, with relevant trade expectations listed within the appropriate sections, however others are not. The Team is working on putting together a more succinct list for the purposes of Trade, but in the meantime Players should expect Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative to heavily impact the result!

==== Open Foreign Ports ====
The following Foreign Ports are open to Concordian ships this season. Some are dangerous journeys and if your ship does not meet the minimum requirements for travelling there, then you risk (but are not ensured of) danger. If your ship is more than 2 tiers below what is required, it risks being destroyed entirely and your character significantly hampered or even killed. The nature of these journeys mean that ships travelling together does not necessarily improve their chances, as such tiers cannot be combined.

The Concordian Senate is currently funding any trade with Ports within a Nation that The Concord has an Embassy to. As of this coming Season, those Nations are The Dendarr Nations and The Fealties of Drummond.

===== Dendarr Nations - Kameiros =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The Easternmost city of the Dendarri, Kameiros is friendly to Concordian ships and captains can expect to trade in Beastbone, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and rumours from this land of Heroes. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Crownsport =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The largest port on the West of Drummond, Crownsport is ruled by House Rayleigh and is known to be the gateway to Drummond for travellers from the east. Receptive to Concordian captains, you can expect to trade in Forgesteel, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Bleakstarbe =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

A far smaller port on the Cape of Karlais, south of Crownsport, Bleakstarbe is a stormwracked harbour set between dark cliffs. Ruled by the rising House Silas of Duchy Forsword, it is poorer than Crownsport but Captains are far more likely to gain a meeting with ‘The Barbed Wolf’, Duke Jeryn Silas. Captains should expect trade in Hartswood, Beastbone, Blacksap, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Manacle Harbour =====
''Tier Required:'' 3

Northernmost port of the Fealties, Manacle Harbour rests in the turbulent seas of ‘The Arc’, an archipelago of large isles ruled as part of Duchy Artallian by House Rottmour. The growing maritime influence of the Duchy draws attention, but it remains to be seen if there is money to be made. Captains should expect to trade in Essencite, Bloodglass, Shimmering Scales and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Free Tabbadar - Odrigan =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

Far to the west across the Great Trade Sea, to the farthest reaches of Invicta Minor rests free Odrigan. A revolutionary city founded by the Tabbadari under Concordian support. Travelling to Odrigan is a journey in charity rather than business. Captains should expect to gain little aside from stories and meagre supplies of Hartswood and Herbs. There has been no news from these fighting friends to the West in recent months, and their current circumstance is unknown.

===== The Idrian Cabal - Rakham’s Cove =====
''Tier Required:'' 3

Hidden among the iceflows far to the South, Rakham’s Cove is a trading harbour for little more than sealflesh, whale blubber, and a madman’s stories. However, if you’re lucky, you might meet some of the strange apprentices of the Idrian Cabal, those minor wizards sent on the unknowable journeys of their distant, spire-dwelling masters. Captains should expect trade in Crystal Mana, Artisan Crafts, and Beastbone.

===== The Kingdom of the Bailes - Ushal Vakkan =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

A tiny port inset along the harsh, rocky coastline of the Cape of Bailes, certainly not for the faint of heart. This is made far worse by the historic hostility of the Bailite peoples to The Concord, and their bloody reputation. Ship captains should beware. Successful trade has the likelihood of including Hartswood, Beastbone, Bloodglass, Herbs, and in especially rare cases, Thunder Oak. As of recent rumour and declaration, Concordian ships are encouraged by The Senate to trade with Ushal Vakkan, so long as they are not Valleyfolk.

==== Public Special Actions - Naval ====

==== Raid Ottandios ====
Ottandios Bulsker’s personal ship, ‘Havek’s Whore’ has been seen numerous times in and around the Outer Isle’s East and the Cape of the Bailes. Someone unknown has put forward a bounty on Ottandios Bulsker and his fleet, valued at twenty Concordian vaults, paid out to all those who take part in his death. Given the fact that part of his fleet is still intact, that Bulsker is a member of a neutral nation to The Concord, and that his fleet is at least partially docked at a second neutral nation, this proposition is complex. However, Naval investments may undertake the ‘Raid Ottandios’ special action this downtime in an attempt to claim this bounty. At least 2000 strength is required, but more is certainly advised. This is an illegal action prior to any Senate involvement. No Senate involvement was declared at the Summit.

=== Other Public Special actions ===

==== Support Your Belief - Iron Valley Characters Only ====
As the final conflict between the Greatstone Carvers and the Bloodglass Inheritors draws near, no action has been taken by either side to ensure a final decision for the future of the Iron Valley. All Iron Valley Investments that do not take a Special Action and remain in the Iron Valley will be able to show support for the Greatstone Carvers or the Bloodglass Inheritors. This is reflected through an initial choice in the Downtime Form, with further information available in the section itself.

All Iron Valley Characters are encouraged to select their chosen Belief, even if they do not qualify for active support.

==== De Re School of Ember’s Future - Lerona Mere Characters and Enterprises Only ====
The School of Embers has always had a tenuous relationship with crime. Whether due to its founding members, the presence of Mountebanks and their like, its location in The Docklands or some other reason, it is not uncommon to associate the School with criminal activity of some kind. There are those who work from the shadows and wish to support such infamy, and those who believe in the weight of the law who wish to give the School of Embers a new identity. Now, a public call has been made to see where the heroes of Lerona Mere sit on this particular fence.

'''''Infamous Identity''''' ''- For those who believe that The School of Embers should embrace its unspoken identity, encouraging it to become a safe-haven for those with less than legal intentions. This action would see heroes arranging for cellars to be turned into smuggling dens, for hidden routes in and out of the School to be created, and for students and faculty alike to be convinced or bribed as appropriate. While this action does not innately require illegal activity to be undertaken, those pursuing this should expect trials and similar consequences should the action fail or come under notable scrutiny.''

Or

'''''Missives for Magistrates''''' ''- For those who wish to ensure The School of Embers is as far from criminally involved as it could be. This action would see heroes encouraging students and faculty to report any suspicious behaviour, to have quarters prepared for live-in Magistrates, and to help create and distribute anti-crime propaganda in and around the School.''

Characters may only choose one of the above as a Special Action. Any Enterprise taking either of the above Special Actions will count as if it were 5 individual Heroes, to represent the weight of an organised group compared to solitary action. This does not prevent Heroes of that Enterprise also picking one of the Special Actions. Heroes and Enterprises pursuing either action should expect additional opportunities, or consequences, should their chosen action notably succeed or notably fail.

==== Attend the Lectures of Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame - Bordevarian Mages Only ====
Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame has respected the Duchess of Everguarde’s wishes and ceased his experiments in ‘The Dale of the Pale Man’. However, word has spread throughout the Kingdom of Bordevar, and eager mages have been seeking out Ser Vincent in Carningsfield to learn what he knows about Endemani magic. Bordevarian characters with the Magus Skill will have the opportunity to take a Special Downtime Action ‘Attend the Lectures of Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame’ to attend these informal classes on Endemani magic.

==== Trade with the Hawk - Business Investments Only ====
This Special Action represents Business Investments freely travelling into Villacres to meet and trade with The Clan of the Hawk. While risky, as what is desired to be traded for and what could be given in return is unclear as of now, Characters that take this option will find their Investment producing a random measure of between 10-20 Wilderness Resources. Characters taking this action will also learn more about the economic state of The Clan of the Hawk.

However if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then Concordian Economic interest in Villacres may explode in a careless way, and money-makers of all kinds from all over The Concord will try to find their wealth in this new Region.

==== Care for Concordian Souls - Congregations Only ====
This Special Action represents Congregation Investments travelling alongside other Concordians, attempting to quietly protect them from Blasphemy and Heresy. Characters that take this option will find that their Congregation produces no resources nor additional votes, but will learn a great deal more about the religion of The Clan of the Hawk.

However, if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then the risk of Concordian zealots breaking the terms of the Agreement and spreading dissent, both in The Concord and in Villacres, increases dramatically.

==== Mark of the Salir - Iron Valley Congregations Only ====
Iron Valley characters with Congregations may take the special action ‘Mark of the Salir’, which would involve them travelling to Deorling’s Citadel to remove the adornments of the Spheres common in more mainstream churches, and replacing them with adornments more befitting Iron Valley tradition. This is in response to the waning attention given to Deorling’s with its lack of consecration, as well as in reply to the growing attention given to the wording of The Salir in The Valley. It is unclear what consequences or rewards this action will bring.

Northernmost port of the Fealties, Manacle Harbour rests in the turbulent seas of ‘The Arc’, an archipelago of large isles ruled as part of Duchy Artallian by House Rottmour. The growing maritime influence of the Duchy draws attention, but it remains to be seen if there is money to be made. Captains should expect to trade in Essencite, Bloodglass, Shimmering Scales and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Free Tabbadar - Odrigan =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

Far to the west across the Great Trade Sea, to the farthest reaches of Invicta Minor rests free Odrigan. A revolutionary city founded by the Tabbadari under Concordian support. Travelling to Odrigan is a journey in charity rather than business. Captains should expect to gain little aside from stories and meagre supplies of Hartswood and Herbs. There has been no news from these fighting friends to the West in recent months, and their current circumstance is unknown.

===== The Idrian Cabal - Rakham’s Cove =====
''Tier Required:'' 3

Hidden among the iceflows far to the South, Rakham’s Cove is a trading harbour for little more than sealflesh, whale blubber, and a madman’s stories. However, if you’re lucky, you might meet some of the strange apprentices of the Idrian Cabal, those minor wizards sent on the unknowable journeys of their distant, spire-dwelling masters. Captains should expect trade in Crystal Mana, Artisan Crafts, and Beastbone.

===== The Kingdom of the Bailes - Ushal Vakkan =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

A tiny port inset along the harsh, rocky coastline of the Cape of Bailes, certainly not for the faint of heart. This is made far worse by the historic hostility of the Bailite peoples to The Concord, and their bloody reputation. Ship captains should beware. Successful trade has the likelihood of including Hartswood, Beastbone, Bloodglass, Herbs, and in especially rare cases, Thunder Oak. As of recent rumour and declaration, Concordian ships are encouraged by The Senate to trade with Ushal Vakkan, so long as they are not Valleyfolk.

==== Public Special Actions - Naval ====

==== Raid Ottandios ====
Ottandios Bulsker’s personal ship, ‘Havek’s Whore’ has been seen numerous times in and around the Outer Isle’s East and the Cape of the Bailes. Someone unknown has put forward a bounty on Ottandios Bulsker and his fleet, valued at twenty Concordian vaults, paid out to all those who take part in his death. Given the fact that part of his fleet is still intact, that Bulsker is a member of a neutral nation to The Concord, and that his fleet is at least partially docked at a second neutral nation, this proposition is complex. However, Naval investments may undertake the ‘Raid Ottandios’ special action this downtime in an attempt to claim this bounty. At least 2000 strength is required, but more is certainly advised. This is an illegal action prior to any Senate involvement. No Senate involvement was declared at the Summit.

=== Other Public Special actions ===

==== Support Your Belief - Iron Valley Characters Only ====
As the final conflict between the Greatstone Carvers and the Bloodglass Inheritors draws near, no action has been taken by either side to ensure a final decision for the future of the Iron Valley. All Iron Valley Investments that do not take a Special Action and remain in the Iron Valley will be able to show support for the Greatstone Carvers or the Bloodglass Inheritors. This is reflected through an initial choice in the Downtime Form, with further information available in the section itself.

All Iron Valley Characters are encouraged to select their chosen Belief, even if they do not qualify for active support.

==== De Re School of Ember’s Future - Lerona Mere Characters and Enterprises Only ====
The School of Embers has always had a tenuous relationship with crime. Whether due to its founding members, the presence of Mountebanks and their like, its location in The Docklands or some other reason, it is not uncommon to associate the School with criminal activity of some kind. There are those who work from the shadows and wish to support such infamy, and those who believe in the weight of the law who wish to give the School of Embers a new identity. Now, a public call has been made to see where the heroes of Lerona Mere sit on this particular fence.

'''''Infamous Identity''''' ''- For those who believe that The School of Embers should embrace its unspoken identity, encouraging it to become a safe-haven for those with less than legal intentions. This action would see heroes arranging for cellars to be turned into smuggling dens, for hidden routes in and out of the School to be created, and for students and faculty alike to be convinced or bribed as appropriate. While this action does not innately require illegal activity to be undertaken, those pursuing this should expect trials and similar consequences should the action fail or come under notable scrutiny.''

Or

'''''Missives for Magistrates''''' ''- For those who wish to ensure The School of Embers is as far from criminally involved as it could be. This action would see heroes encouraging students and faculty to report any suspicious behaviour, to have quarters prepared for live-in Magistrates, and to help create and distribute anti-crime propaganda in and around the School.''

Characters may only choose one of the above as a Special Action. Any Enterprise taking either of the above Special Actions will count as if it were 5 individual Heroes, to represent the weight of an organised group compared to solitary action. This does not prevent Heroes of that Enterprise also picking one of the Special Actions. Heroes and Enterprises pursuing either action should expect additional opportunities, or consequences, should their chosen action notably succeed or notably fail.

==== Attend the Lectures of Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame - Bordevarian Mages Only ====
Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame has respected the Duchess of Everguarde’s wishes and ceased his experiments in ‘The Dale of the Pale Man’. However, word has spread throughout the Kingdom of Bordevar, and eager mages have been seeking out Ser Vincent in Carningsfield to learn what he knows about Endemani magic. Bordevarian characters with the Magus Skill will have the opportunity to take a Special Downtime Action ‘Attend the Lectures of Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame’ to attend these informal classes on Endemani magic.

==== Trade with the Hawk - Business Investments Only ====
This Special Action represents Business Investments freely travelling into Villacres to meet and trade with The Clan of the Hawk. While risky, as what is desired to be traded for and what could be given in return is unclear as of now, Characters that take this option will find their Investment producing a random measure of between 10-20 Wilderness Resources. Characters taking this action will also learn more about the economic state of The Clan of the Hawk.

However if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then Concordian Economic interest in Villacres may explode in a careless way, and money-makers of all kinds from all over The Concord will try to find their wealth in this new Region.

==== Care for Concordian Souls - Congregations Only ====
This Special Action represents Congregation Investments travelling alongside other Concordians, attempting to quietly protect them from Blasphemy and Heresy. Characters that take this option will find that their Congregation produces no resources nor additional votes, but will learn a great deal more about the religion of The Clan of the Hawk.

However, if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then the risk of Concordian zealots breaking the terms of the Agreement and spreading dissent, both in The Concord and in Villacres, increases dramatically.

==== Mark of the Salir - Iron Valley Congregations Only ====
Iron Valley characters with Congregations may take the special action ‘Mark of the Salir’, which would involve them travelling to Deorling’s Citadel to remove the adornments of the Spheres common in more mainstream churches, and replacing them with adornments more befitting Iron Valley tradition. This is in response to the waning attention given to Deorling’s with its lack of consecration, as well as in reply to the growing attention given to the wording of The Salir in The Valley. It is unclear what consequences or rewards this action will bring.

Band Enterprises

2026-10-12T11:32:04Z

Mfell: Update to Under Their Noses after a review of the action. A pretty decent change to how it works!

Each Band in Concord gains what is known as an ‘Enterprise’ representing a powerful organisation, structure, business, or similar that the group maintains, part of what grants it notoriety. Enterprises function similarly to personal investments in that they generally provide income and have a set of downtime actions that they can perform. Management of the Enterprise falls to the designated ‘Band Leader’ of a band, but it should be a decision made by the band as a whole, depending on how the band functions.

Each enterprise has the following elements:

'''Enterprise Name:''' The name of the enterprise.

'''Enterprise Type:''' What kind of enterprise it is, defining its income, nature, and available actions.

'''Enterprise Territory:''' What territory the enterprise is based in. This is determined by the most common investment territory of the band. If the most common investment territory for a band changes (due to movements, deaths, or new members), the Enterprise ceases to function until the Warband leader spends X Locks [ X = tier x 4] to gain a new Enterprise of an appropriate tier in the new Enterprise Territory. A new enterprise can be purchased by the Band Leader through the same method. In both circumstances, the money is paid to the exchange at Summit.

'''Enterprise Description:''' A description of the enterprise, its physical structure, style, and curiosities. Given by the Band leader in their submission, this will be used by the Concord team to produce a story related to the Enterprise.

'''Enterprise Tier:''' Ranging between 1 and 3, these tiers affect how profitable and powerful the Enterprise is, often being a part of the various calculations used in enterprise actions.

Enterprises gain tiers over time by having members attend Summits. The rate is as follows:

'''After two Summits of 6 or more members your Enterprise moves from Tier 1 to Tier 2.'''

'''After two Summits of 10 or more members, while having a Tier 2 Enterprise, your Enterprise moves from Tier 2 to Tier 3.'''
[[File:Untitled.png|thumb|492x492px]]
'''If your band fails to meet the minimum numbers requirement (6 for Tier 2, 10 for Tier 3) for two Summits in a row, it will reduce down a tier the following Summit.'''

== Repairing, Moving, or Changing an Enterprise ==
In a circumstance where an Enterprise becomes damaged, needs to move to a new territory to follow character investments, or the band simply wishes to change enterprise type, this can be done by paying the exchange Locks equal to the Enterprises tier x 4.

When the band has moved enterprise locations or purchased a new enterprise, they will only be able to perform the default (1st) action for that enterprise this season. This reflects the lack of options and time available when setting up a new enterprise.

== Enterprise Downtime ==
Following each Summit the Band attends with at least minimum numbers (3), the Band leader will be able to submit a downtime action for the Enterprise. This is done through the link [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdHrBUbdWZCU4e2KJStD98DGzWNcYfwe5Rp7HZRBKclDfH34A/viewform HERE]. In submitting their enterprise downtime the Band Leader will be able to select one of the three actions available to them based on their Enterprise type, as well as any other information required (such as target locations or characters).

If a downtime is not submitted, the Enterprise will be assumed to perform the default action, which is always the 1st action presented.

== Enterprise Types ==
A band’s enterprise is chosen from the Enterprise list. Each enterprise has the following elements:

'''Name:''' What this type of Enterprise is called.

'''Description:''' A description of this general type of enterprise.

'''Prerequisites:''' Any relevant prerequisites.

'''Actions:''' What actions are available to that enterprise.

Spring 226 Interlude

2026-10-11T03:48:02Z

Mfell:

== Overview ==
Welcome to the Interlude page for the Spring 226 Summit! This Wiki Page aims to assist in providing clarity for Downtime and other events that have resulted from Player action at the most recent Summit. On this page you can find the Downtime Submission link, public Special Actions, Council decisions and far more!

Everything you can find here in the Interlude page will also hopefully assist in providing some further reasoning to actions between Summits. For the most part, The Winds of the World themselves will answer a lot of these questions, but '''all information found here can be considered to be known in character'''! This will help for folks running Sanctioned Events, or at Game Hen Events, by providing at least a baseline understanding of what will be happening in the early stages of the Season between Summits.

In regards to Downtime itself, please note that as always '''not everyone needs to submit a Downtime'''! If you are not an Artisan, planning on taking any Special Actions (either public or known to you), and you just want to produce as standard for your Investment, then don’t feel like you have to submit. However, if getting involved in shenanigans is for you, then have a read below to work out if there is anything you can get involved in that is publicly available!

There will always be Special Actions that are private, or locked to particular Investments, Archetypes, Realms and more. '''If it is not mentioned in this Interlude Page, and you do not know what it is, we ask that you do not select it!'''

'''The Deadline for Downtime Submissions is 5pm Monday the 19th of October, 2026'''

'''[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc4IX0rpzapJeAwZYv4XeyCf9oaHz5xaC_Fyh6YqmkBtGuJRw/viewform Downtime Form Link Here!]'''

[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfkNhVSJc1aN-tGQPhuyRrLnF67aBjgTURN4zN3_F3N2Ygc8g/viewform Enterprise Form Link Here, for Band Leaders!]

'''Please note that the Deadline for Enterprise Downtime Submissions is the same as for regular Downtime.'''

== Councils and Choices ==
As always, the various Councils of The Concord have been busy making decisions, declarations and more. In particular, the choices of The Senate, The Church and The Warchamber are all worth knowing to both the people of Southern Esterra and the heroes of The Concord. While it may take some time for The Civil Service to publish these documents, they can be found here;

* [[Senate Motions - Spring 226|Senate Motions]]
* Church Motions
* [[Military Orders - Spring 226|Military Orders]]

Before 225, Military Orders were not made public in the same way as Senate and Church Motions until the release of The Winds of the World. The Team is hoping that by making these actions public from the get go, it can provide clarity for both Downtime and roleplay between Events.

== Investments and Downtime ==
The below section will cover the specific details that are important for particular Investments. A lot of this information is clearly listed in the Downtime Form itself, or in the Investments page, but by also adding it below it can give a bit more flavour for those who may not have had an idea of what they wanted to do!

In addition, if there are any Special Actions relating to an Investment that are public knowledge, they will be listed here too alongside a brief description! If you don’t see your Investment listed, it just means that there are no additional notes that may be relevant to you for Downtime and the Interlude, beyond the narrative of last Season’s Winds and the Winds yet to come.

=== Military Investments ===
The list of actions a Military Investment can take are varied, but detailed here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting an Army or Fortification, Scouting the Frontline, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Military Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support an Army or Fortification are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Military to Scout the Frontline will find that they are only able to select Territories adjacent to Concordian held land. This focuses the intent of this action and provides much more substantial and meaningful results. There is no current list for applicable Territories and benefits or consequences for choosing them, however it can be expected that each Territory will be heavily impacted by Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative at play in that area. All Territories that can be chosen for Scouting are listed in the Downtime Form for ease!

==== Public Special Actions - Military ====

==== Guard Convoys ====
This Special Action represents Military Investments providing aid for the other Concordian Heroes travelling in and out of Villacres in the coming Season. Villacres may not have an enemy Army present, but it is no less a dangerous place full of Zekartaal and other threats. If this option is taken, Characters will find that their Military Investment produces a random amount of income between 1-3 Locks, and that the other Public Special Actions are less likely to face danger as they are supported by military-minded heroic allies.

However if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then the presence of The Concord (military or otherwise) in Villacres may attract greater attention from its enemies, or cause unwanted friction with its locals.

=== Naval Investments ===
The list of actions a Naval Investment can take are just as varied as a Military, but often far more outgoing. Detailed information can be found here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting a Fleet, Trade with Foreign Ports, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Naval Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support a Fleet are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Naval Investment to Trade with Foreign Ports will find a list of known Ports to trade with in the Downtime Form! Some of these Ports can be found across the Wiki, with relevant trade expectations listed within the appropriate sections, however others are not. The Team is working on putting together a more succinct list for the purposes of Trade, but in the meantime Players should expect Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative to heavily impact the result!

==== Open Foreign Ports ====
The following Foreign Ports are open to Concordian ships this season. Some are dangerous journeys and if your ship does not meet the minimum requirements for travelling there, then you risk (but are not ensured of) danger. If your ship is more than 2 tiers below what is required, it risks being destroyed entirely and your character significantly hampered or even killed. The nature of these journeys mean that ships travelling together does not necessarily improve their chances, as such tiers cannot be combined.

The Concordian Senate is currently funding any trade with Ports within a Nation that The Concord has an Embassy to. As of this coming Season, those Nations are The Dendarr Nations and The Fealties of Drummond.

===== Dendarr Nations - Kameiros =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The Easternmost city of the Dendarri, Kameiros is friendly to Concordian ships and captains can expect to trade in Beastbone, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and rumours from this land of Heroes. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Crownsport =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The largest port on the West of Drummond, Crownsport is ruled by House Rayleigh and is known to be the gateway to Drummond for travellers from the east. Receptive to Concordian captains, you can expect to trade in Forgesteel, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Bleakstarbe =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

A far smaller port on the Cape of Karlais, south of Crownsport, Bleakstarbe is a stormwracked harbour set between dark cliffs. Ruled by the rising House Silas of Duchy Forsword, it is poorer than Crownsport but Captains are far more likely to gain a meeting with ‘The Barbed Wolf’, Duke Jeryn Silas. Captains should expect trade in Hartswood, Beastbone, Blacksap, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Manacle Harbour =====
''Tier Required:'' 3

Northernmost port of the Fealties, Manacle Harbour rests in the turbulent seas of ‘The Arc’, an archipelago of large isles ruled as part of Duchy Artallian by House Rottmour. The growing maritime influence of the Duchy draws attention, but it remains to be seen if there is money to be made. Captains should expect to trade in Essencite, Bloodglass, Shimmering Scales and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Free Tabbadar - Odrigan =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

Far to the west across the Great Trade Sea, to the farthest reaches of Invicta Minor rests free Odrigan. A revolutionary city founded by the Tabbadari under Concordian support. Travelling to Odrigan is a journey in charity rather than business. Captains should expect to gain little aside from stories and meagre supplies of Hartswood and Herbs. There has been no news from these fighting friends to the West in recent months, and their current circumstance is unknown.

===== The Idrian Cabal - Rakham’s Cove =====
''Tier Required:'' 3

Hidden among the iceflows far to the South, Rakham’s Cove is a trading harbour for little more than sealflesh, whale blubber, and a madman’s stories. However, if you’re lucky, you might meet some of the strange apprentices of the Idrian Cabal, those minor wizards sent on the unknowable journeys of their distant, spire-dwelling masters. Captains should expect trade in Crystal Mana, Artisan Crafts, and Beastbone.

===== The Kingdom of the Bailes - Ushal Vakkan =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

A tiny port inset along the harsh, rocky coastline of the Cape of Bailes, certainly not for the faint of heart. This is made far worse by the historic hostility of the Bailite peoples to The Concord, and their bloody reputation. Ship captains should beware. Successful trade has the likelihood of including Hartswood, Beastbone, Bloodglass, Herbs, and in especially rare cases, Thunder Oak. As of recent rumour and declaration, Concordian ships are encouraged by The Senate to trade with Ushal Vakkan, so long as they are not Valleyfolk.

==== Public Special Actions - Naval ====

==== Raid Ottandios ====
Ottandios Bulsker’s personal ship, ‘Havek’s Whore’ has been seen numerous times in and around the Outer Isle’s East and the Cape of the Bailes. Someone unknown has put forward a bounty on Ottandios Bulsker and his fleet, valued at twenty Concordian vaults, paid out to all those who take part in his death. Given the fact that part of his fleet is still intact, that Bulsker is a member of a neutral nation to The Concord, and that his fleet is at least partially docked at a second neutral nation, this proposition is complex. However, Naval investments may undertake the ‘Raid Ottandios’ special action this downtime in an attempt to claim this bounty. At least 2000 strength is required, but more is certainly advised. This is an illegal action prior to any Senate involvement. No Senate involvement was declared at the Summit.

=== Other Public Special actions ===

==== Support Your Belief - Iron Valley Characters Only ====
As the final conflict between the Greatstone Carvers and the Bloodglass Inheritors draws near, no action has been taken by either side to ensure a final decision for the future of the Iron Valley. All Iron Valley Investments that do not take a Special Action and remain in the Iron Valley will be able to show support for the Greatstone Carvers or the Bloodglass Inheritors. This is reflected through an initial choice in the Downtime Form, with further information available in the section itself.

All Iron Valley Characters are encouraged to select their chosen Belief, even if they do not qualify for active support.

==== De Re School of Ember’s Future - Lerona Mere Characters and Enterprises Only ====
The School of Embers has always had a tenuous relationship with crime. Whether due to its founding members, the presence of Mountebanks and their like, its location in The Docklands or some other reason, it is not uncommon to associate the School with criminal activity of some kind. There are those who work from the shadows and wish to support such infamy, and those who believe in the weight of the law who wish to give the School of Embers a new identity. Now, a public call has been made to see where the heroes of Lerona Mere sit on this particular fence.

'''''Infamous Identity''''' ''- For those who believe that The School of Embers should embrace its unspoken identity, encouraging it to become a safe-haven for those with less than legal intentions. This action would see heroes arranging for cellars to be turned into smuggling dens, for hidden routes in and out of the School to be created, and for students and faculty alike to be convinced or bribed as appropriate. While this action does not innately require illegal activity to be undertaken, those pursuing this should expect trials and similar consequences should the action fail or come under notable scrutiny.''

Or

'''''Missives for Magistrates''''' ''- For those who wish to ensure The School of Embers is as far from criminally involved as it could be. This action would see heroes encouraging students and faculty to report any suspicious behaviour, to have quarters prepared for live-in Magistrates, and to help create and distribute anti-crime propaganda in and around the School.''

Characters may only choose one of the above as a Special Action. Any Enterprise taking either of the above Special Actions will count as if it were 5 individual Heroes, to represent the weight of an organised group compared to solitary action. This does not prevent Heroes of that Enterprise also picking one of the Special Actions. Heroes and Enterprises pursuing either action should expect additional opportunities, or consequences, should their chosen action notably succeed or notably fail.

==== Attend the Lectures of Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame - Bordevarian Mages Only ====
Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame has respected the Duchess of Everguarde’s wishes and ceased his experiments in ‘The Dale of the Pale Man’. However, word has spread throughout the Kingdom of Bordevar, and eager mages have been seeking out Ser Vincent in Carningsfield to learn what he knows about Endemani magic. Bordevarian characters with the Magus Skill will have the opportunity to take a Special Downtime Action ‘Attend the Lectures of Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame’ to attend these informal classes on Endemani magic.

==== Trade with the Hawk - Business Investments Only ====
This Special Action represents Business Investments freely travelling into Villacres to meet and trade with The Clan of the Hawk. While risky, as what is desired to be traded for and what could be given in return is unclear as of now, Characters that take this option will find their Investment producing a random measure of between 10-20 Wilderness Resources. Characters taking this action will also learn more about the economic state of The Clan of the Hawk.

However if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then Concordian Economic interest in Villacres may explode in a careless way, and money-makers of all kinds from all over The Concord will try to find their wealth in this new Region.

==== Care for Concordian Souls - Congregations Only ====
This Special Action represents Congregation Investments travelling alongside other Concordians, attempting to quietly protect them from Blasphemy and Heresy. Characters that take this option will find that their Congregation produces no resources nor additional votes, but will learn a great deal more about the religion of The Clan of the Hawk.

However, if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then the risk of Concordian zealots breaking the terms of the Agreement and spreading dissent, both in The Concord and in Villacres, increases dramatically.

==== Mark of the Salir - Iron Valley Congregations Only ====
Iron Valley characters with Congregations may take the special action ‘Mark of the Salir’, which would involve them travelling to Deorling’s Citadel to remove the adornments of the Spheres common in more mainstream churches, and replacing them with adornments more befitting Iron Valley tradition. This is in response to the waning attention given to Deorling’s with its lack of consecration, as well as in reply to the growing attention given to the wording of The Salir in The Valley. It is unclear what consequences or rewards this action will bring.

Military Orders - Spring 226

2026-10-04T09:39:59Z

Mfell: Fixed wording on Peoples Gift action for clarity

== Overview ==
As the Spring Summit of 226AE comes to an end, Passage becomes clear of influence and power. Its heroes pack away their belongings, their tents and their ambitions; content to journey with them back home before once again setting off to places of import or danger. Yet there would be some whose duty would not be finished, those Civil Servants of The Warchamber and Civil Post who now had a most important job to do. There were orders to be delivered, after all.

Welcome to the Military Orders page for E2 226! This page plainly lists the Orders of each Military force. This is posted publicly to assist in making the Downtime process smoother, while also giving a little bit more context to the immediate happenings of the military world post Summit.

This page will list each force, where they have travelled and which action they have taken. If you have a Military or Naval Investment and want to Support an Army, Fortification or Fleet, this can help you know which one you may wish to choose!

== Armies ==
'''The Desert Whisperers;''' After the last season's march across most of Southern Esterra, it would be a quiet and comfortable season planned for The Desert Whisperers by their new General; Bahseam Nawa El’Andash Al’Teacup. The order encouraged a relatively leisurely march, at least in comparison to their previous, to '''The Madre Campo''' where The Whisperers should '''Billett''' and rest.

'''The First Banner of Bordevar;''' Perhaps in order to prepare for a promise made nearly four years ago, Ser Louisoix Leveilleur, The Sage, The First, Archmage of the Order of Avalon, Former Senator of Weiland, Knight of Heart, General of the First Banner of the Banneret had clear orders. '''Force March''' to '''Starscar.''' The First Banner needed no further instruction.

'''The Iron Brawlers;''' ''“Sharpen your blades, next season we go home!” - Brigadier Griff Baker''. A victory in The Plateau of the Gods did not come without bloodshed on both sides, but the call of Royal Bordevar could be felt by anyone with a pulse in The Iron Brawlers. Marching to '''The Sableheart''', they had their orders to '''Billett''' in preparation for a promise made.

'''The Legion of the Blackheart Bear;''' Blessed and lucky to no longer carry the heinous and terrifying Blasserstreit, The Legion were given orders to march in good form to '''The Madre Campo''', where they were to then '''Billett''', recover and recruit. Despite the attack on their home so close at hand, The Legion would rest with stoic faces and attentions turned north.

'''The Valleys Own;''' Bleeding but never broken, the orders for the weary Valley’s Own were kind. ''“Stay strong to The Spheres. Rest Well.” - General Thane of Brakkenloh''. Moving from the plains of the Priado to the woods of '''La Calidez Hills''', the Valleyfolk warriors were given a well earned opportunity to '''Billett'''.

'''The Voyant’s Vanguard;''' With newly minted arms, armour and attitude, a change of name and a change of pace would be a simple affair. General Giovanni Vinci set the tone for their future by ordering a test of might immediately. March to '''The Ravensreach Wilds''' and ensure a '''Strategic Defence''' prevents it from falling. The Voyant’s Vanguard relished the chance to test their mettle, encouraged by their freshness as much as by the State of Emergency power of the Senator of Windholme, Ivern. The Ironblooded Bravos planned to hold Resinderholz no matter what it cost; the preparations and promises of The Warchamber making it clear that they will be supported by more heroic military investments than The Concord has ever managed before, while The Church gathered together the might to cast a Fools Gold Fortress to aid the defence.

There was going to be a great war in Resinderholz, and The Vanguard would be at the centre of it.

== Fortresses ==
'''Deorlings Citadel;''' His death may have cut deeper than any blade, but Champion Baire Ironguard ensured that his legacy lived on. Before his departure, his orders were submitted and ready to be sent. With conviction and certainty, the warriors of Deorlings received the order to '''Sally Out''' into '''Windholme East''' to cut down any criminal they could find. No matter whether they were those of the Blackiron Crown or Thralldring, they were enemies to cut down in the defence of Windholme.

'''The Border Forts;''' Despite their recently increased capacity, there was little that Ser Landry Tremaine the Favoured could accomplish with The Forts alone. Choosing instead to submit no order, and allow them to prepare in their own ways for the inevitable difficulty of the coming year, it would hopefully be a quiet season for the defenders of Starscar.

'''Baelag’s Holdfast;''' Finally in the hands of The Iron Valley, Vallthane Revna’s orders would be simple. '''Hold the Outer Walls'''. If The King’s Pass was to be attacked, they would be ready. The Severed Lords had been repelled once, they would ensure they were repelled again.

== Fleets ==
'''Liberties Fist:''' Standing after the fall of the previous Admiral, Calypso d'Aubrey would ensure that her orders were clear to any who might have problem with her. ''“Hit the Reaching Tide.”'' The captains of Liberties Fist were happy to sail to '''The Bay of Promised Gold West''', winds forcing their sails forward as they find themselves blessed by the Ceremony known as Tempest’s Calling, and '''Raid''' the strange and hated enemy that still tried to claim a hold on land that belonged to Lerona Mere. With notes for prevention, fifteen Al-Asah’s Antidotes in hand courtesy of the Admiral, and trust in the Ward of Ironclad Vigour cast upon Mancante Terra, they prepared themselves for a sickly fight.

'''The Peoples Gift;''' With fifteen doses of Al-Asah’s Antidote, advice penned by Krahenmeister Vischerin, and various treatment plans for Blasserstreit accompanying them, The Peoples Gift were well and truly ready for their orders. With a Ward of Ironclad Vigour cast upon Mancante Terra, and the aforementioned deliveries, the marines of The Gift could expect what was coming. Admiral Gustave made sure to keep his people informed, and the marines of The Gift were ready to '''Raid''' The Reaching Tide in Sylvestelli Mare in the coming Season. Blessed by Tempest’s Calling, brought down on them by the power of the heroic priesthood, The Peoples Gift would sail to '''The Bay of Promised Gold West''' with a speed usually impossible simply to achieve their given orders.

Spring 226 Interlude

2026-10-04T09:02:32Z

Mfell: Updated with enterprise link (coming, thanks be the power of Leo)

== Overview ==
Welcome to the Interlude page for the Spring 226 Summit! This Wiki Page aims to assist in providing clarity for Downtime and other events that have resulted from Player action at the most recent Summit. On this page you can find the Downtime Submission link, public Special Actions, Council decisions and far more!

Everything you can find here in the Interlude page will also hopefully assist in providing some further reasoning to actions between Summits. For the most part, The Winds of the World themselves will answer a lot of these questions, but '''all information found here can be considered to be known in character'''! This will help for folks running Sanctioned Events, or at Game Hen Events, by providing at least a baseline understanding of what will be happening in the early stages of the Season between Summits.

In regards to Downtime itself, please note that as always '''not everyone needs to submit a Downtime'''! If you are not an Artisan, planning on taking any Special Actions (either public or known to you), and you just want to produce as standard for your Investment, then don’t feel like you have to submit. However, if getting involved in shenanigans is for you, then have a read below to work out if there is anything you can get involved in that is publicly available!

There will always be Special Actions that are private, or locked to particular Investments, Archetypes, Realms and more. '''If it is not mentioned in this Interlude Page, and you do not know what it is, we ask that you do not select it!'''

'''The Deadline for Downtime Submissions is 5pm Monday the 19th of October, 2026'''

'''[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc4IX0rpzapJeAwZYv4XeyCf9oaHz5xaC_Fyh6YqmkBtGuJRw/viewform Downtime Form Link Here!]'''

'''Please note that the Deadline for Enterprise Downtime Submissions is the same as for regular Downtime.'''

== Councils and Choices ==
As always, the various Councils of The Concord have been busy making decisions, declarations and more. In particular, the choices of The Senate, The Church and The Warchamber are all worth knowing to both the people of Southern Esterra and the heroes of The Concord. While it may take some time for The Civil Service to publish these documents, they can be found here;

* Senate Motions
* Church Motions
* [[Military Orders - Spring 226|Military Orders]]

Before 225, Military Orders were not made public in the same way as Senate and Church Motions until the release of The Winds of the World. The Team is hoping that by making these actions public from the get go, it can provide clarity for both Downtime and roleplay between Events.

== Investments and Downtime ==
The below section will cover the specific details that are important for particular Investments. A lot of this information is clearly listed in the Downtime Form itself, or in the Investments page, but by also adding it below it can give a bit more flavour for those who may not have had an idea of what they wanted to do!

In addition, if there are any Special Actions relating to an Investment that are public knowledge, they will be listed here too alongside a brief description! If you don’t see your Investment listed, it just means that there are no additional notes that may be relevant to you for Downtime and the Interlude, beyond the narrative of last Season’s Winds and the Winds yet to come.

=== Military Investments ===
The list of actions a Military Investment can take are varied, but detailed here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting an Army or Fortification, Scouting the Frontline, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Military Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support an Army or Fortification are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Military to Scout the Frontline will find that they are only able to select Territories adjacent to Concordian held land. This focuses the intent of this action and provides much more substantial and meaningful results. There is no current list for applicable Territories and benefits or consequences for choosing them, however it can be expected that each Territory will be heavily impacted by Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative at play in that area. All Territories that can be chosen for Scouting are listed in the Downtime Form for ease!

==== Public Special Actions - Military ====

==== Guard Convoys ====
This Special Action represents Military Investments providing aid for the other Concordian Heroes travelling in and out of Villacres in the coming Season. Villacres may not have an enemy Army present, but it is no less a dangerous place full of Zekartaal and other threats. If this option is taken, Characters will find that their Military Investment produces a random amount of income between 1-3 Locks, and that the other Public Special Actions are less likely to face danger as they are supported by military-minded heroic allies.

However if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then the presence of The Concord (military or otherwise) in Villacres may attract greater attention from its enemies, or cause unwanted friction with its locals.

=== Naval Investments ===
The list of actions a Naval Investment can take are just as varied as a Military, but often far more outgoing. Detailed information can be found here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting a Fleet, Trade with Foreign Ports, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Naval Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support a Fleet are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Naval Investment to Trade with Foreign Ports will find a list of known Ports to trade with in the Downtime Form! Some of these Ports can be found across the Wiki, with relevant trade expectations listed within the appropriate sections, however others are not. The Team is working on putting together a more succinct list for the purposes of Trade, but in the meantime Players should expect Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative to heavily impact the result!

==== Open Foreign Ports ====
The following Foreign Ports are open to Concordian ships this season. Some are dangerous journeys and if your ship does not meet the minimum requirements for travelling there, then you risk (but are not ensured of) danger. If your ship is more than 2 tiers below what is required, it risks being destroyed entirely and your character significantly hampered or even killed. The nature of these journeys mean that ships travelling together does not necessarily improve their chances, as such tiers cannot be combined.

The Concordian Senate is currently funding any trade with Ports within a Nation that The Concord has an Embassy to. As of this coming Season, those Nations are The Dendarr Nations and The Fealties of Drummond.

===== Dendarr Nations - Kameiros =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The Easternmost city of the Dendarri, Kameiros is friendly to Concordian ships and captains can expect to trade in Beastbone, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and rumours from this land of Heroes. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Crownsport =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The largest port on the West of Drummond, Crownsport is ruled by House Rayleigh and is known to be the gateway to Drummond for travellers from the east. Receptive to Concordian captains, you can expect to trade in Forgesteel, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Bleakstarbe =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

A far smaller port on the Cape of Karlais, south of Crownsport, Bleakstarbe is a stormwracked harbour set between dark cliffs. Ruled by the rising House Silas of Duchy Forsword, it is poorer than Crownsport but Captains are far more likely to gain a meeting with ‘The Barbed Wolf’, Duke Jeryn Silas. Captains should expect trade in Hartswood, Beastbone, Blacksap, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Manacle Harbour =====
''Tier Required:'' 3

Northernmost port of the Fealties, Manacle Harbour rests in the turbulent seas of ‘The Arc’, an archipelago of large isles ruled as part of Duchy Artallian by House Rottmour. The growing maritime influence of the Duchy draws attention, but it remains to be seen if there is money to be made. Captains should expect to trade in Essencite, Bloodglass, Shimmering Scales and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Free Tabbadar - Odrigan =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

Far to the west across the Great Trade Sea, to the farthest reaches of Invicta Minor rests free Odrigan. A revolutionary city founded by the Tabbadari under Concordian support. Travelling to Odrigan is a journey in charity rather than business. Captains should expect to gain little aside from stories and meagre supplies of Hartswood and Herbs. There has been no news from these fighting friends to the West in recent months, and their current circumstance is unknown.

===== The Idrian Cabal - Rakham’s Cove =====
''Tier Required:'' 3

Hidden among the iceflows far to the South, Rakham’s Cove is a trading harbour for little more than sealflesh, whale blubber, and a madman’s stories. However, if you’re lucky, you might meet some of the strange apprentices of the Idrian Cabal, those minor wizards sent on the unknowable journeys of their distant, spire-dwelling masters. Captains should expect trade in Crystal Mana, Artisan Crafts, and Beastbone.

===== The Kingdom of the Bailes - Ushal Vakkan =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

A tiny port inset along the harsh, rocky coastline of the Cape of Bailes, certainly not for the faint of heart. This is made far worse by the historic hostility of the Bailite peoples to The Concord, and their bloody reputation. Ship captains should beware. Successful trade has the likelihood of including Hartswood, Beastbone, Bloodglass, Herbs, and in especially rare cases, Thunder Oak. As of recent rumour and declaration, Concordian ships are encouraged by The Senate to trade with Ushal Vakkan, so long as they are not Valleyfolk.

==== Public Special Actions - Naval ====

==== Raid Ottandios ====
Ottandios Bulsker’s personal ship, ‘Havek’s Whore’ has been seen numerous times in and around the Outer Isle’s East and the Cape of the Bailes. Someone unknown has put forward a bounty on Ottandios Bulsker and his fleet, valued at twenty Concordian vaults, paid out to all those who take part in his death. Given the fact that part of his fleet is still intact, that Bulsker is a member of a neutral nation to The Concord, and that his fleet is at least partially docked at a second neutral nation, this proposition is complex. However, Naval investments may undertake the ‘Raid Ottandios’ special action this downtime in an attempt to claim this bounty. At least 2000 strength is required, but more is certainly advised. This is an illegal action prior to any Senate involvement. No Senate involvement was declared at the Summit.

=== Other Public Special actions ===

==== Support Your Belief - Iron Valley Characters Only ====
As the final conflict between the Greatstone Carvers and the Bloodglass Inheritors draws near, no action has been taken by either side to ensure a final decision for the future of the Iron Valley. All Iron Valley Investments that do not take a Special Action and remain in the Iron Valley will be able to show support for the Greatstone Carvers or the Bloodglass Inheritors. This is reflected through an initial choice in the Downtime Form, with further information available in the section itself.

All Iron Valley Characters are encouraged to select their chosen Belief, even if they do not qualify for active support.

==== De Re School of Ember’s Future - Lerona Mere Characters and Enterprises Only ====
The School of Embers has always had a tenuous relationship with crime. Whether due to its founding members, the presence of Mountebanks and their like, its location in The Docklands or some other reason, it is not uncommon to associate the School with criminal activity of some kind. There are those who work from the shadows and wish to support such infamy, and those who believe in the weight of the law who wish to give the School of Embers a new identity. Now, a public call has been made to see where the heroes of Lerona Mere sit on this particular fence.

'''''Infamous Identity''''' ''- For those who believe that The School of Embers should embrace its unspoken identity, encouraging it to become a safe-haven for those with less than legal intentions. This action would see heroes arranging for cellars to be turned into smuggling dens, for hidden routes in and out of the School to be created, and for students and faculty alike to be convinced or bribed as appropriate. While this action does not innately require illegal activity to be undertaken, those pursuing this should expect trials and similar consequences should the action fail or come under notable scrutiny.''

Or

'''''Missives for Magistrates''''' ''- For those who wish to ensure The School of Embers is as far from criminally involved as it could be. This action would see heroes encouraging students and faculty to report any suspicious behaviour, to have quarters prepared for live-in Magistrates, and to help create and distribute anti-crime propaganda in and around the School.''

Characters may only choose one of the above as a Special Action. Any Enterprise taking either of the above Special Actions will count as if it were 5 individual Heroes, to represent the weight of an organised group compared to solitary action. This does not prevent Heroes of that Enterprise also picking one of the Special Actions. Heroes and Enterprises pursuing either action should expect additional opportunities, or consequences, should their chosen action notably succeed or notably fail.

==== Attend the Lectures of Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame - Bordevarian Mages Only ====
Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame has respected the Duchess of Everguarde’s wishes and ceased his experiments in ‘The Dale of the Pale Man’. However, word has spread throughout the Kingdom of Bordevar, and eager mages have been seeking out Ser Vincent in Carningsfield to learn what he knows about Endemani magic. Bordevarian characters with the Magus Skill will have the opportunity to take a Special Downtime Action ‘Attend the Lectures of Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame’ to attend these informal classes on Endemani magic.

==== Trade with the Hawk - Business Investments Only ====
This Special Action represents Business Investments freely travelling into Villacres to meet and trade with The Clan of the Hawk. While risky, as what is desired to be traded for and what could be given in return is unclear as of now, Characters that take this option will find their Investment producing a random measure of between 10-20 Wilderness Resources. Characters taking this action will also learn more about the economic state of The Clan of the Hawk.

However if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then Concordian Economic interest in Villacres may explode in a careless way, and money-makers of all kinds from all over The Concord will try to find their wealth in this new Region.

==== Care for Concordian Souls - Congregations Only ====
This Special Action represents Congregation Investments travelling alongside other Concordians, attempting to quietly protect them from Blasphemy and Heresy. Characters that take this option will find that their Congregation produces no resources nor additional votes, but will learn a great deal more about the religion of The Clan of the Hawk.

However, if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then the risk of Concordian zealots breaking the terms of the Agreement and spreading dissent, both in The Concord and in Villacres, increases dramatically.

==== Mark of the Salir - Iron Valley Congregations Only ====
Iron Valley characters with Congregations may take the special action ‘Mark of the Salir’, which would involve them travelling to Deorling’s Citadel to remove the adornments of the Spheres common in more mainstream churches, and replacing them with adornments more befitting Iron Valley tradition. This is in response to the waning attention given to Deorling’s with its lack of consecration, as well as in reply to the growing attention given to the wording of The Salir in The Valley. It is unclear what consequences or rewards this action will bring.

Spring 226 Interlude

2026-10-04T08:52:44Z

Mfell: Links are my friends

== Overview ==
Welcome to the Interlude page for the Spring 226 Summit! This Wiki Page aims to assist in providing clarity for Downtime and other events that have resulted from Player action at the most recent Summit. On this page you can find the Downtime Submission link, public Special Actions, Council decisions and far more!

Everything you can find here in the Interlude page will also hopefully assist in providing some further reasoning to actions between Summits. For the most part, The Winds of the World themselves will answer a lot of these questions, but '''all information found here can be considered to be known in character'''! This will help for folks running Sanctioned Events, or at Game Hen Events, by providing at least a baseline understanding of what will be happening in the early stages of the Season between Summits.

In regards to Downtime itself, please note that as always '''not everyone needs to submit a Downtime'''! If you are not an Artisan, planning on taking any Special Actions (either public or known to you), and you just want to produce as standard for your Investment, then don’t feel like you have to submit. However, if getting involved in shenanigans is for you, then have a read below to work out if there is anything you can get involved in that is publicly available!

There will always be Special Actions that are private, or locked to particular Investments, Archetypes, Realms and more. '''If it is not mentioned in this Interlude Page, and you do not know what it is, we ask that you do not select it!'''

'''The Deadline for Downtime Submissions is 5pm Monday the 19th of October, 2026'''

'''[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc4IX0rpzapJeAwZYv4XeyCf9oaHz5xaC_Fyh6YqmkBtGuJRw/viewform Downtime Form Link Here!]'''

'''The Deadline for Enterprise Downtime Submissions will be updated once the Form is confirmed and posted.'''

== Councils and Choices ==
As always, the various Councils of The Concord have been busy making decisions, declarations and more. In particular, the choices of The Senate, The Church and The Warchamber are all worth knowing to both the people of Southern Esterra and the heroes of The Concord. While it may take some time for The Civil Service to publish these documents, they can be found here;

* Senate Motions
* Church Motions
* [[Military Orders - Spring 226|Military Orders]]

Before 225, Military Orders were not made public in the same way as Senate and Church Motions until the release of The Winds of the World. The Team is hoping that by making these actions public from the get go, it can provide clarity for both Downtime and roleplay between Events.

== Investments and Downtime ==
The below section will cover the specific details that are important for particular Investments. A lot of this information is clearly listed in the Downtime Form itself, or in the Investments page, but by also adding it below it can give a bit more flavour for those who may not have had an idea of what they wanted to do!

In addition, if there are any Special Actions relating to an Investment that are public knowledge, they will be listed here too alongside a brief description! If you don’t see your Investment listed, it just means that there are no additional notes that may be relevant to you for Downtime and the Interlude, beyond the narrative of last Season’s Winds and the Winds yet to come.

=== Military Investments ===
The list of actions a Military Investment can take are varied, but detailed here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting an Army or Fortification, Scouting the Frontline, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Military Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support an Army or Fortification are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Military to Scout the Frontline will find that they are only able to select Territories adjacent to Concordian held land. This focuses the intent of this action and provides much more substantial and meaningful results. There is no current list for applicable Territories and benefits or consequences for choosing them, however it can be expected that each Territory will be heavily impacted by Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative at play in that area. All Territories that can be chosen for Scouting are listed in the Downtime Form for ease!

==== Public Special Actions - Military ====

==== Guard Convoys ====
This Special Action represents Military Investments providing aid for the other Concordian Heroes travelling in and out of Villacres in the coming Season. Villacres may not have an enemy Army present, but it is no less a dangerous place full of Zekartaal and other threats. If this option is taken, Characters will find that their Military Investment produces a random amount of income between 1-3 Locks, and that the other Public Special Actions are less likely to face danger as they are supported by military-minded heroic allies.

However if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then the presence of The Concord (military or otherwise) in Villacres may attract greater attention from its enemies, or cause unwanted friction with its locals.

=== Naval Investments ===
The list of actions a Naval Investment can take are just as varied as a Military, but often far more outgoing. Detailed information can be found here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting a Fleet, Trade with Foreign Ports, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Naval Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support a Fleet are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Naval Investment to Trade with Foreign Ports will find a list of known Ports to trade with in the Downtime Form! Some of these Ports can be found across the Wiki, with relevant trade expectations listed within the appropriate sections, however others are not. The Team is working on putting together a more succinct list for the purposes of Trade, but in the meantime Players should expect Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative to heavily impact the result!

==== Open Foreign Ports ====
The following Foreign Ports are open to Concordian ships this season. Some are dangerous journeys and if your ship does not meet the minimum requirements for travelling there, then you risk (but are not ensured of) danger. If your ship is more than 2 tiers below what is required, it risks being destroyed entirely and your character significantly hampered or even killed. The nature of these journeys mean that ships travelling together does not necessarily improve their chances, as such tiers cannot be combined.

The Concordian Senate is currently funding any trade with Ports within a Nation that The Concord has an Embassy to. As of this coming Season, those Nations are The Dendarr Nations and The Fealties of Drummond.

===== Dendarr Nations - Kameiros =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The Easternmost city of the Dendarri, Kameiros is friendly to Concordian ships and captains can expect to trade in Beastbone, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and rumours from this land of Heroes. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Crownsport =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The largest port on the West of Drummond, Crownsport is ruled by House Rayleigh and is known to be the gateway to Drummond for travellers from the east. Receptive to Concordian captains, you can expect to trade in Forgesteel, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Bleakstarbe =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

A far smaller port on the Cape of Karlais, south of Crownsport, Bleakstarbe is a stormwracked harbour set between dark cliffs. Ruled by the rising House Silas of Duchy Forsword, it is poorer than Crownsport but Captains are far more likely to gain a meeting with ‘The Barbed Wolf’, Duke Jeryn Silas. Captains should expect trade in Hartswood, Beastbone, Blacksap, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Manacle Harbour =====
''Tier Required:'' 3

Northernmost port of the Fealties, Manacle Harbour rests in the turbulent seas of ‘The Arc’, an archipelago of large isles ruled as part of Duchy Artallian by House Rottmour. The growing maritime influence of the Duchy draws attention, but it remains to be seen if there is money to be made. Captains should expect to trade in Essencite, Bloodglass, Shimmering Scales and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Free Tabbadar - Odrigan =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

Far to the west across the Great Trade Sea, to the farthest reaches of Invicta Minor rests free Odrigan. A revolutionary city founded by the Tabbadari under Concordian support. Travelling to Odrigan is a journey in charity rather than business. Captains should expect to gain little aside from stories and meagre supplies of Hartswood and Herbs. There has been no news from these fighting friends to the West in recent months, and their current circumstance is unknown.

===== The Idrian Cabal - Rakham’s Cove =====
''Tier Required:'' 3

Hidden among the iceflows far to the South, Rakham’s Cove is a trading harbour for little more than sealflesh, whale blubber, and a madman’s stories. However, if you’re lucky, you might meet some of the strange apprentices of the Idrian Cabal, those minor wizards sent on the unknowable journeys of their distant, spire-dwelling masters. Captains should expect trade in Crystal Mana, Artisan Crafts, and Beastbone.

===== The Kingdom of the Bailes - Ushal Vakkan =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

A tiny port inset along the harsh, rocky coastline of the Cape of Bailes, certainly not for the faint of heart. This is made far worse by the historic hostility of the Bailite peoples to The Concord, and their bloody reputation. Ship captains should beware. Successful trade has the likelihood of including Hartswood, Beastbone, Bloodglass, Herbs, and in especially rare cases, Thunder Oak. As of recent rumour and declaration, Concordian ships are encouraged by The Senate to trade with Ushal Vakkan, so long as they are not Valleyfolk.

==== Public Special Actions - Naval ====

==== Raid Ottandios ====
Ottandios Bulsker’s personal ship, ‘Havek’s Whore’ has been seen numerous times in and around the Outer Isle’s East and the Cape of the Bailes. Someone unknown has put forward a bounty on Ottandios Bulsker and his fleet, valued at twenty Concordian vaults, paid out to all those who take part in his death. Given the fact that part of his fleet is still intact, that Bulsker is a member of a neutral nation to The Concord, and that his fleet is at least partially docked at a second neutral nation, this proposition is complex. However, Naval investments may undertake the ‘Raid Ottandios’ special action this downtime in an attempt to claim this bounty. At least 2000 strength is required, but more is certainly advised. This is an illegal action prior to any Senate involvement. No Senate involvement was declared at the Summit.

=== Other Public Special actions ===

==== Support Your Belief - Iron Valley Characters Only ====
As the final conflict between the Greatstone Carvers and the Bloodglass Inheritors draws near, no action has been taken by either side to ensure a final decision for the future of the Iron Valley. All Iron Valley Investments that do not take a Special Action and remain in the Iron Valley will be able to show support for the Greatstone Carvers or the Bloodglass Inheritors. This is reflected through an initial choice in the Downtime Form, with further information available in the section itself.

All Iron Valley Characters are encouraged to select their chosen Belief, even if they do not qualify for active support.

==== De Re School of Ember’s Future - Lerona Mere Characters and Enterprises Only ====
The School of Embers has always had a tenuous relationship with crime. Whether due to its founding members, the presence of Mountebanks and their like, its location in The Docklands or some other reason, it is not uncommon to associate the School with criminal activity of some kind.

This does not prevent Heroes of that Enterprise also picking one of the Special Actions. Heroes and Enterprises pursuing either action should expect additional opportunities, or consequences, should their chosen action notably succeed or notably fail.

==== Attend the Lectures of Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame - Bordevarian Mages Only ====
Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame has respected the Duchess of Everguarde’s wishes and ceased his experiments in ‘The Dale of the Pale Man’. However, word has spread throughout the Kingdom of Bordevar, and eager mages have been seeking out Ser Vincent in Carningsfield to learn what he knows about Endemani magic. Bordevarian characters with the Magus Skill will have the opportunity to take a Special Downtime Action ‘Attend the Lectures of Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame’ to attend these informal classes on Endemani magic.

==== Trade with the Hawk - Business Investments Only ====
This Special Action represents Business Investments freely travelling into Villacres to meet and trade with The Clan of the Hawk. While risky, as what is desired to be traded for and what could be given in return is unclear as of now, Characters that take this option will find their Investment producing a random measure of between 10-20 Wilderness Resources.

Iron Valley characters with Congregations may take the special action ‘Mark of the Salir’, which would involve them travelling to Deorling’s Citadel to remove the adornments of the Spheres common in more mainstream churches, and replacing them with adornments more befitting Iron Valley tradition. This is in response to the waning attention given to Deorling’s with its lack of consecration, as well as in reply to the growing attention given to the wording of The Salir in The Valley. It is unclear what consequences or rewards this action will bring.

Military Orders - Spring 226

2026-10-04T08:52:18Z

Mfell: Military Orders! War! Important! Wow!

== Overview ==
As the Spring Summit of 226AE comes to an end, Passage becomes clear of influence and power. Its heroes pack away their belongings, their tents and their ambitions; content to journey with them back home before once again setting off to places of import or danger. Yet there would be some whose duty would not be finished, those Civil Servants of The Warchamber and Civil Post who now had a most important job to do. There were orders to be delivered, after all.

Welcome to the Military Orders page for E2 226! This page plainly lists the Orders of each Military force. This is posted publicly to assist in making the Downtime process smoother, while also giving a little bit more context to the immediate happenings of the military world post Summit.

This page will list each force, where they have travelled and which action they have taken. If you have a Military or Naval Investment and want to Support an Army, Fortification or Fleet, this can help you know which one you may wish to choose!

== Armies ==
'''The Desert Whisperers;''' After the last season's march across most of Southern Esterra, it would be a quiet and comfortable season planned for The Desert Whisperers by their new General; Bahseam Nawa El’Andash Al’Teacup. The order encouraged a relatively leisurely march, at least in comparison to their previous, to '''The Madre Campo''' where The Whisperers should '''Billett''' and rest.

'''The First Banner of Bordevar;''' Perhaps in order to prepare for a promise made nearly four years ago, Ser Louisoix Leveilleur, The Sage, The First, Archmage of the Order of Avalon, Former Senator of Weiland, Knight of Heart, General of the First Banner of the Banneret had clear orders. '''Force March''' to '''Starscar.''' The First Banner needed no further instruction.

'''The Iron Brawlers;''' ''“Sharpen your blades, next season we go home!” - Brigadier Griff Baker''. A victory in The Plateau of the Gods did not come without bloodshed on both sides, but the call of Royal Bordevar could be felt by anyone with a pulse in The Iron Brawlers. Marching to '''The Sableheart''', they had their orders to '''Billett''' in preparation for a promise made.

'''The Legion of the Blackheart Bear;''' Blessed and lucky to no longer carry the heinous and terrifying Blasserstreit, The Legion were given orders to march in good form to '''The Madre Campo''', where they were to then '''Billett''', recover and recruit. Despite the attack on their home so close at hand, The Legion would rest with stoic faces and attentions turned north.

'''The Valleys Own;''' Bleeding but never broken, the orders for the weary Valley’s Own were kind. ''“Stay strong to The Spheres. Rest Well.” - General Thane of Brakkenloh''. Moving from the plains of the Priado to the woods of '''La Calidez Hills''', the Valleyfolk warriors were given a well earned opportunity to '''Billett'''.

'''The Voyant’s Vanguard;''' With newly minted arms, armour and attitude, a change of name and a change of pace would be a simple affair. General Giovanni Vinci set the tone for their future by ordering a test of might immediately. March to '''The Ravensreach Wilds''' and ensure a '''Strategic Defence''' prevents it from falling. The Voyant’s Vanguard relished the chance to test their mettle, encouraged by their freshness as much as by the State of Emergency power of the Senator of Windholme, Ivern. The Ironblooded Bravos planned to hold Resinderholz no matter what it cost; the preparations and promises of The Warchamber making it clear that they will be supported by more heroic military investments than The Concord has ever managed before, while The Church gathered together the might to cast a Fools Gold Fortress to aid the defence.

There was going to be a great war in Resinderholz, and The Vanguard would be at the centre of it.

== Fortresses ==
'''Deorlings Citadel;''' His death may have cut deeper than any blade, but Champion Baire Ironguard ensured that his legacy lived on. Before his departure, his orders were submitted and ready to be sent. With conviction and certainty, the warriors of Deorlings received the order to '''Sally Out''' into '''Windholme East''' to cut down any criminal they could find. No matter whether they were those of the Blackiron Crown or Thralldring, they were enemies to cut down in the defence of Windholme.

'''The Border Forts;''' Despite their recently increased capacity, there was little that Ser Landry Tremaine the Favoured could accomplish with The Forts alone. Choosing instead to submit no order, and allow them to prepare in their own ways for the inevitable difficulty of the coming year, it would hopefully be a quiet season for the defenders of Starscar.

'''Baelag’s Holdfast;''' Finally in the hands of The Iron Valley, Vallthane Revna’s orders would be simple. '''Hold the Outer Walls'''. If The King’s Pass was to be attacked, they would be ready. The Severed Lords had been repelled once, they would ensure they were repelled again.

== Fleets ==
'''Liberties Fist:''' Standing after the fall of the previous Admiral, Calypso d'Aubrey would ensure that her orders were clear to any who might have problem with her. ''“Hit the Reaching Tide.”'' The captains of Liberties Fist were happy to sail to '''The Bay of Promised Gold West''', winds forcing their sails forward as they find themselves blessed by the Ceremony known as Tempest’s Calling, and '''Raid''' the strange and hated enemy that still tried to claim a hold on land that belonged to Lerona Mere. With notes for prevention, fifteen Al-Asah’s Antidotes in hand courtesy of the Admiral, and trust in the Ward of Ironclad Vigour cast upon Mancante Terra, they prepared themselves for a sickly fight.

'''The Peoples Gift;''' With fifteen doses of Al-Asah’s Antidote, advice penned by Krahenmeister Vischerin, and various treatment plans for Blasserstreit accompanying them, The Peoples Gift were well and truly ready for their orders. With a Ward of Ironclad Vigour cast upon Mancante Terra, and the aforementioned deliveries, the marines of The Gift could expect what was coming. Admiral Gustave made sure to keep his people informed, and the marines of The Gift were ready to '''Raid''' The Drowned in '''The Bay of Promised Gold West''' in the coming Season. Blessed by Tempest’s Calling, brought down on them by the power of the heroic priesthood, The Peoples Gift would sail with a speed usually impossible simply to achieve their given orders.

Autumn 226 Interlude

2026-10-04T08:47:39Z

Mfell: Oops i had not updated these tee hee. Minor edit to hide my shame

== Overview ==
Welcome to the Interlude page for the Autumn 226 Summit! This Wiki Page aims to assist in providing clarity for Downtime and other events that have resulted from Player action at the most recent Summit. On this page you can find the Downtime Submission link, public Special Actions, Council decisions and far more!

Everything you can find here in the Interlude page will also hopefully assist in providing some further reasoning to actions between Summits. For the most part, The Winds of the World themselves will answer a lot of these questions, but '''all information found here can be considered to be known in character'''! This will help for folks running Sanctioned Events, or at Game Hen Events, by providing at least a baseline understanding of what will be happening in the early stages of the Season between Summits.

In regards to Downtime itself, please note that as always '''not everyone needs to submit a Downtime'''! If you are not an Artisan, planning on taking any Special Actions (either public or known to you), and you just want to produce as standard for your Investment, then don’t feel like you have to submit. However, if getting involved in shenanigans is for you, then have a read below to work out if there is anything you can get involved in that is publicly available!

There will always be Special Actions that are private, or locked to particular Investments, Archetypes, Realms and more. '''If it is not mentioned in this Interlude Page, and you do not know what it is, we ask that you do not select it!'''

'''The Deadline for ALL Downtime Submissions is Saturday 16th of May 2026'''

'''[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScdCm_f1kX_pf3-f0D8nr7JdpJqKJQU8gd52R9n2z2MTNpwcg/viewform Downtime Form Link Here!]'''

== Councils and Choices ==
As always, the various Councils of The Concord have been busy making decisions, declarations and more. In particular, the choices of The Senate, The Church and The Warchamber are all worth knowing to both the people of Southern Esterra and the heroes of The Concord. While it may take some time for The Civil Service to publish these documents, they can be found here;

* [[Senate Motions - Autumn 226|Senate Motions]]
* [[Motions of the Concordian Church Autumn 226|Church Motions]]
* [[Military Orders - Autumn 226|Military Orders]]

Before 225, Military Orders were not made public in the same way as Senate and Church Motions until the release of The Winds of the World. The Team is hoping that by making these actions public from the get go, it can provide clarity for both Downtime and roleplay between Events.

== Investments and Downtime ==
The below section will cover the specific details that are important for particular Investments. A lot of this information is clearly listed in the Downtime Form itself, or in the Investments page, but by also adding it below it can give a bit more flavour for those who may not have had an idea of what they wanted to do!

In addition, if there are any Special Actions relating to an Investment that are public knowledge, they will be listed here too alongside a brief description! If you don’t see your Investment listed, it just means that there are no additional notes that may be relevant to you for Downtime and the Interlude, beyond the narrative of last Season’s Winds and the Winds yet to come.

=== Military Investments ===
The list of actions a Military Investment can take are varied, but detailed here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting an Army or Fortification, Scouting the Frontline, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Military Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support an Army or Fortification are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Military to Scout the Frontline will find that they are only able to select Territories adjacent to Concordian held land. This focuses the intent of this action and provides much more substantial and meaningful results. There is no current list for applicable Territories and benefits or consequences for choosing them, however it can be expected that each Territory will be heavily impacted by Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative at play in that area. All Territories that can be chosen for Scouting are listed in the Downtime Form for ease!

==== Public Special Actions - Military ====
==== Ducal Decree - Fight Further Into Draemoor (Any Realm) ====
Thanks to the actions of Duke Wynters of Starscar, The Vaulderin Armoury still remains open to all Heroes of The Concord as a staging ground to push further into Draemoor. Champion of the King, Ser Landry Tremane, has informed those that may wish to attend that the fighting is expected to be harsh and dangerous, and that damaged Investments and Traumatic Wounds are possible for any who attend. Any Military Investment of any Realm may take this action, representing spending their time working alongside The Barrow Hounds to take aggressive and defensive actions against The Onyx Aristocracy within Draemoor.

=== Naval Investments ===
The list of actions a Naval Investment can take are just as varied as a Military, but often far more outgoing. Detailed information can be found here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting a Fleet, Trade with Foreign Ports, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Naval Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support a Fleet are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Naval Investment to Trade with Foreign Ports will find a list of known Ports to trade with in the Downtime Form! Some of these Ports can be found across the Wiki, with relevant trade expectations listed within the appropriate sections, however others are not. The Team is working on putting together a more succinct list for the purposes of Trade, but in the meantime Players should expect Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative to heavily impact the result!

==== Open Foreign Ports ====
The following Foreign Ports are open to Concordian ships this season. Some are dangerous journeys and if your ship does not meet the minimum requirements for travelling there, then you risk (but are not ensured of) danger. If your ship is more than 3 tiers below what is required, it risks being destroyed entirely and your character significantly hampered or even killed. The nature of these journeys mean that ships travelling together does not necessarily improve their chances, as such tiers cannot be combined.

===== Dendarr Nations - Kameiros =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The Easternmost city of the Dendarri, Kameiros is friendly to Concordian ships and captains can expect to trade in Beastbone, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and rumours from this land of Heroes. The Golden Fleet is known to be operating in this region. In addition, the Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== The Golden Fleet - Banathea =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The pirate-port of Banathea sits empty of its vast fleet as it is busy raiding the Great Trade Sea and Explorers Sea. The Treaty of the Corsairs, between the Concord and the Golden Fleet has ended. Captains can expect to trade for Herbs, Artisan Crafts, and Potions, albeit in small numbers.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Crownsport =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The largest port on the West of Drummond, Crownsport is ruled by House Rayleigh and is known to be the gateway to Drummond for travellers from the east. Receptive to Concordian captains, you can expect to trade in Forgesteel, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet is known to be operating in this region. In addition, the Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Bleakstarbe =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

A far smaller port on the Cape of Karlais, south of Crownsport, Bleakstarbe is a stormwracked harbour set between dark cliffs. Ruled be the rising House Silas of Duchy Forsword, it is poorer than Crownsport but Captains are far more likely to gain a meeting with ‘The Barbed Wolf’, Duke Jeryn Silas. Captains should expect trade in Hartswood, Beastbone, Blacksap, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet is known to be operating in this region. In addition, the Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Manacle Harbour =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

Northernmost port of the Fealties, Manacle Harbour rests in the turbulent seas of ‘The Arc’, an archipelago of large isles ruled as part of Duchy Artallian by House Rottmour. The growing maritime influence of the Duchy draws attention, but it remains to be seen if there is money to be made. Captains should expect to trade in Essencite, Bloodglass, Shimmering Scales and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet is known to be operating in this region. In addition, the Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Free Tabbadar - Odrigan =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

Far to the west across the Great Trade Sea, to the farthest reaches of Invicta Minor rests free Odrigan. A revolutionary city founded by the Tabbadari under Concordian support. Travelling to Odrigan is a journey in charity rather than business. Captains should expect to gain little aside from stories and meagre supplies of Hartswood and Herbs.

===== The Idrian Cabal - Rakham’s Cove =====
''Tier Required:'' 3

Hidden among the iceflows far to the South, Rakham’s Cove is a trading harbour for little more than sealflesh, whale blubber, and a madman’s stories. However, if you’re lucky, you might meet some of the strange apprentices of the Idrian Cabal, those minor wizards sent on the unknowable journeys of their distant, spire-dwelling masters. Captains should expect trade in Crystal Mana, Artisan Crafts, and Beastbone.

===== The Kingdom of the Bailes - Ushal Vakkan =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

A tiny port inset along the harsh, rocky coastline of the Cape of Bailes, certainly not for the faint of heart. This is made far worse by the historic hostility of the Bailite peoples to The Concord, and their bloody reputation. Ship captains should beware. Successful trade has the likelihood of including Hartswood, Beastbone, Bloodglass, Herbs, and in especially rare cases, Thunder Oak.

==== Public Special Actions - Naval ====
==== Plunder Hukar ====
As per the Winds Entry ‘White Flags Aloft Before War begins’, an opportunity to plunder the far shores of Hukar has become available to The Concord, and as of Autumn 226 it still remains available to those that would wish to do so. The action will involve sailing to the coastal Kaludas and attempting entry to steal whatever riches and information they can find. This action is expected to have moderate danger and an unclear reward.

==== Explore The Icereach ====
As per the Winds Entry ‘And a Future for Somewhere Else’, an opportunity to set sail amongst the dangers of The Icereach Sea has become available to The Concord thanks to a warm Summer Season. The journey itself would be dangerous, with many unknowable threats, mysteries and secrets to uncover, and the reward would be unclear at best. Nonetheless, the opportunity remains, and those seeking the thrill of exploration may be interested in such an action.

=== Other Public Special actions ===
==== Gather Starmetal - Mancante Terra, The Tribelands and Mukarrem ====
As per the Winds Entry ‘In the Shadow of Distant Stars’, an opportunity to gather the remnants of fallen stars has been made available in The Concord’s West. Starmetal, as it has come to be called, is an unusual and unknown material shrouded in mystery. Investments from Mancante Terra, The Tribelands and Mukarrem may take this action, representing spending their Season searching for pieces of fallen sky.

==== Conviction to Assist Obregon in Matters of Water and Faith ====
Yet again, The Council of Six utilises one of its precious few Endeavours to declare a Conviction. This is not a Special Action, but a Standard Action of Congregations. The details of the Conviction are briefly listed below, but more information can be found on the Church Motions Page;

While Obregon suffers in drought and distress, The Council of Six does not ignore them. The Council declares a Conviction for Priests of The Concord to Assist the people of Obregon, their duties shared between the carrying and distribution of water from The Oasis to the City proper, and also the ministering of Faith to those feeling distraught by their circumstance. Priests are to be present for Obregon and its people, to shine a light of compassion upon a hurting city, and to assist in this crisis to ensure that at least one more soul is given the chance to prove themselves before The Spheres.

Concord is a Fantasy Live-Action Role Playing Game (LARP) run in Perth, Western Australia.

Players of Concord are Heroes of the five realms, and join together to form an empire of necessity that is struggling to survive in a hostile fantasy realm. Concord is a game of politics, heroism, combat, subterfuge, economics and religion in a low-fantasy original world called Esterra. It is a game focused around creating a living world that values responsiveness to player actions and story with weight.

Spring 226 Interlude

2026-10-04T08:41:07Z

Mfell: Spring Interlude! It is happening! More details to come

== Overview ==
Welcome to the Interlude page for the Spring 226 Summit! This Wiki Page aims to assist in providing clarity for Downtime and other events that have resulted from Player action at the most recent Summit. On this page you can find the Downtime Submission link, public Special Actions, Council decisions and far more!

Everything you can find here in the Interlude page will also hopefully assist in providing some further reasoning to actions between Summits. For the most part, The Winds of the World themselves will answer a lot of these questions, but '''all information found here can be considered to be known in character'''! This will help for folks running Sanctioned Events, or at Game Hen Events, by providing at least a baseline understanding of what will be happening in the early stages of the Season between Summits.

In regards to Downtime itself, please note that as always '''not everyone needs to submit a Downtime'''! If you are not an Artisan, planning on taking any Special Actions (either public or known to you), and you just want to produce as standard for your Investment, then don’t feel like you have to submit. However, if getting involved in shenanigans is for you, then have a read below to work out if there is anything you can get involved in that is publicly available!

There will always be Special Actions that are private, or locked to particular Investments, Archetypes, Realms and more. '''If it is not mentioned in this Interlude Page, and you do not know what it is, we ask that you do not select it!'''

'''The Deadline for Downtime Submissions is 5pm Monday the 19th of October, 2026'''

'''Downtime Form Link Here!'''

'''The Deadline for Enterprise Downtime Submissions will be updated once the Form is confirmed and posted.'''

== Councils and Choices ==
As always, the various Councils of The Concord have been busy making decisions, declarations and more. In particular, the choices of The Senate, The Church and The Warchamber are all worth knowing to both the people of Southern Esterra and the heroes of The Concord. While it may take some time for The Civil Service to publish these documents, they can be found here;

* Senate Motions
* Church Motions
* Military Orders

Before 225, Military Orders were not made public in the same way as Senate and Church Motions until the release of The Winds of the World. The Team is hoping that by making these actions public from the get go, it can provide clarity for both Downtime and roleplay between Events.

== Investments and Downtime ==
The below section will cover the specific details that are important for particular Investments. A lot of this information is clearly listed in the Downtime Form itself, or in the Investments page, but by also adding it below it can give a bit more flavour for those who may not have had an idea of what they wanted to do!

In addition, if there are any Special Actions relating to an Investment that are public knowledge, they will be listed here too alongside a brief description! If you don’t see your Investment listed, it just means that there are no additional notes that may be relevant to you for Downtime and the Interlude, beyond the narrative of last Season’s Winds and the Winds yet to come.

=== Military Investments ===
The list of actions a Military Investment can take are varied, but detailed here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting an Army or Fortification, Scouting the Frontline, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Military Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support an Army or Fortification are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Military to Scout the Frontline will find that they are only able to select Territories adjacent to Concordian held land. This focuses the intent of this action and provides much more substantial and meaningful results. There is no current list for applicable Territories and benefits or consequences for choosing them, however it can be expected that each Territory will be heavily impacted by Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative at play in that area. All Territories that can be chosen for Scouting are listed in the Downtime Form for ease!

==== Public Special Actions - Military ====

==== Guard Convoys ====
This Special Action represents Military Investments providing aid for the other Concordian Heroes travelling in and out of Villacres in the coming Season. Villacres may not have an enemy Army present, but it is no less a dangerous place full of Zekartaal and other threats. If this option is taken, Characters will find that their Military Investment produces a random amount of income between 1-3 Locks, and that the other Public Special Actions are less likely to face danger as they are supported by military-minded heroic allies.

However if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then the presence of The Concord (military or otherwise) in Villacres may attract greater attention from its enemies, or cause unwanted friction with its locals.

=== Naval Investments ===
The list of actions a Naval Investment can take are just as varied as a Military, but often far more outgoing. Detailed information can be found here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting a Fleet, Trade with Foreign Ports, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Naval Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support a Fleet are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Naval Investment to Trade with Foreign Ports will find a list of known Ports to trade with in the Downtime Form! Some of these Ports can be found across the Wiki, with relevant trade expectations listed within the appropriate sections, however others are not. The Team is working on putting together a more succinct list for the purposes of Trade, but in the meantime Players should expect Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative to heavily impact the result!

==== Open Foreign Ports ====
The following Foreign Ports are open to Concordian ships this season. Some are dangerous journeys and if your ship does not meet the minimum requirements for travelling there, then you risk (but are not ensured of) danger. If your ship is more than 2 tiers below what is required, it risks being destroyed entirely and your character significantly hampered or even killed. The nature of these journeys mean that ships travelling together does not necessarily improve their chances, as such tiers cannot be combined.

The Concordian Senate is currently funding any trade with Ports within a Nation that The Concord has an Embassy to. As of this coming Season, those Nations are The Dendarr Nations and The Fealties of Drummond.

===== Dendarr Nations - Kameiros =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The Easternmost city of the Dendarri, Kameiros is friendly to Concordian ships and captains can expect to trade in Beastbone, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and rumours from this land of Heroes. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Crownsport =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The largest port on the West of Drummond, Crownsport is ruled by House Rayleigh and is known to be the gateway to Drummond for travellers from the east. Receptive to Concordian captains, you can expect to trade in Forgesteel, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Bleakstarbe =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

A far smaller port on the Cape of Karlais, south of Crownsport, Bleakstarbe is a stormwracked harbour set between dark cliffs. Ruled by the rising House Silas of Duchy Forsword, it is poorer than Crownsport but Captains are far more likely to gain a meeting with ‘The Barbed Wolf’, Duke Jeryn Silas. Captains should expect trade in Hartswood, Beastbone, Blacksap, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Manacle Harbour =====
''Tier Required:'' 3

Northernmost port of the Fealties, Manacle Harbour rests in the turbulent seas of ‘The Arc’, an archipelago of large isles ruled as part of Duchy Artallian by House Rottmour. The growing maritime influence of the Duchy draws attention, but it remains to be seen if there is money to be made. Captains should expect to trade in Essencite, Bloodglass, Shimmering Scales and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet had been operating in this region, but has since left. The Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Free Tabbadar - Odrigan =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

Far to the west across the Great Trade Sea, to the farthest reaches of Invicta Minor rests free Odrigan. A revolutionary city founded by the Tabbadari under Concordian support. Travelling to Odrigan is a journey in charity rather than business. Captains should expect to gain little aside from stories and meagre supplies of Hartswood and Herbs. There has been no news from these fighting friends to the West in recent months, and their current circumstance is unknown.

===== The Idrian Cabal - Rakham’s Cove =====
''Tier Required:'' 3

Hidden among the iceflows far to the South, Rakham’s Cove is a trading harbour for little more than sealflesh, whale blubber, and a madman’s stories. However, if you’re lucky, you might meet some of the strange apprentices of the Idrian Cabal, those minor wizards sent on the unknowable journeys of their distant, spire-dwelling masters. Captains should expect trade in Crystal Mana, Artisan Crafts, and Beastbone.

===== The Kingdom of the Bailes - Ushal Vakkan =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

A tiny port inset along the harsh, rocky coastline of the Cape of Bailes, certainly not for the faint of heart. This is made far worse by the historic hostility of the Bailite peoples to The Concord, and their bloody reputation. Ship captains should beware. Successful trade has the likelihood of including Hartswood, Beastbone, Bloodglass, Herbs, and in especially rare cases, Thunder Oak. As of recent rumour and declaration, Concordian ships are encouraged by The Senate to trade with Ushal Vakkan, so long as they are not Valleyfolk.

==== Public Special Actions - Naval ====

==== Raid Ottandios ====
Ottandios Bulsker’s personal ship, ‘Havek’s Whore’ has been seen numerous times in and around the Outer Isle’s East and the Cape of the Bailes. Someone unknown has put forward a bounty on Ottandios Bulsker and his fleet, valued at twenty Concordian vaults, paid out to all those who take part in his death. Given the fact that part of his fleet is still intact, that Bulsker is a member of a neutral nation to The Concord, and that his fleet is at least partially docked at a second neutral nation, this proposition is complex. However, Naval investments may undertake the ‘Raid Ottandios’ special action this downtime in an attempt to claim this bounty. At least 2000 strength is required, but more is certainly advised. This is an illegal action prior to any Senate involvement. No Senate involvement was declared at the Summit.

=== Other Public Special actions ===

==== Support Your Belief - Iron Valley Characters Only ====
As the final conflict between the Greatstone Carvers and the Bloodglass Inheritors draws near, no action has been taken by either side to ensure a final decision for the future of the Iron Valley. All Iron Valley Investments that do not take a Special Action and remain in the Iron Valley will be able to show support for the Greatstone Carvers or the Bloodglass Inheritors. This is reflected through an initial choice in the Downtime Form, with further information available in the section itself.

All Iron Valley Characters are encouraged to select their chosen Belief, even if they do not qualify for active support.

==== De Re School of Ember’s Future - Lerona Mere Characters and Enterprises Only ====
The School of Embers has always had a tenuous relationship with crime. Whether due to its founding members, the presence of Mountebanks and their like, its location in The Docklands or some other reason, it is not uncommon to associate the School with criminal activity of some kind. There are those who work from the shadows and wish to support such infamy, and those who believe in the weight of the law who wish to give the School of Embers a new identity. Now, a public call has been made to see where the heroes of Lerona Mere sit on this particular fence.

'''''Infamous Identity''''' ''- For those who believe that The School of Embers should embrace its unspoken identity, encouraging it to become a safe-haven for those with less than legal intentions. This action would see heroes arranging for cellars to be turned into smuggling dens, for hidden routes in and out of the School to be created, and for students and faculty alike to be convinced or bribed as appropriate. While this action does not innately require illegal activity to be undertaken, those pursuing this should expect trials and similar consequences should the action fail or come under notable scrutiny.''

Or

'''''Missives for Magistrates''''' ''- For those who wish to ensure The School of Embers is as far from criminally involved as it could be. This action would see heroes encouraging students and faculty to report any suspicious behaviour, to have quarters prepared for live-in Magistrates, and to help create and distribute anti-crime propaganda in and around the School.''

Characters may only choose one of the above as a Special Action. Any Enterprise taking either of the above Special Actions will count as if it were 5 individual Heroes, to represent the weight of an organised group compared to solitary action. This does not prevent Heroes of that Enterprise also picking one of the Special Actions. Heroes and Enterprises pursuing either action should expect additional opportunities, or consequences, should their chosen action notably succeed or notably fail.

==== Attend the Lectures of Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame - Bordevarian Mages Only ====
Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame has respected the Duchess of Everguarde’s wishes and ceased his experiments in ‘The Dale of the Pale Man’. However, word has spread throughout the Kingdom of Bordevar, and eager mages have been seeking out Ser Vincent in Carningsfield to learn what he knows about Endemani magic. Bordevarian characters with the Magus Skill will have the opportunity to take a Special Downtime Action ‘Attend the Lectures of Ser Vincent Karwall the Flame’ to attend these informal classes on Endemani magic.

==== Trade with the Hawk - Business Investments Only ====
This Special Action represents Business Investments freely travelling into Villacres to meet and trade with The Clan of the Hawk. While risky, as what is desired to be traded for and what could be given in return is unclear as of now, Characters that take this option will find their Investment producing a random measure of between 10-20 Wilderness Resources. Characters taking this action will also learn more about the economic state of The Clan of the Hawk.

However if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then Concordian Economic interest in Villacres may explode in a careless way, and money-makers of all kinds from all over The Concord will try to find their wealth in this new Region.

==== Care for Concordian Souls - Congregations Only ====
This Special Action represents Congregation Investments travelling alongside other Concordians, attempting to quietly protect them from Blasphemy and Heresy. Characters that take this option will find that their Congregation produces no resources nor additional votes, but will learn a great deal more about the religion of The Clan of the Hawk.

However, if this Action is taken notably more than either of the others, then the risk of Concordian zealots breaking the terms of the Agreement and spreading dissent, both in The Concord and in Villacres, increases dramatically.

==== Mark of the Salir - Iron Valley Congregations Only ====
Iron Valley characters with Congregations may take the special action ‘Mark of the Salir’, which would involve them travelling to Deorling’s Citadel to remove the adornments of the Spheres common in more mainstream churches, and replacing them with adornments more befitting Iron Valley tradition. This is in response to the waning attention given to Deorling’s with its lack of consecration, as well as in reply to the growing attention given to the wording of The Salir in The Valley. It is unclear what consequences or rewards this action will bring.

Rumwold Vastness

2026-09-22T12:49:09Z

Mfell: Updated to reflect Nationalisation, AND fix the election Season. Apologies Valley, it certainly should not have been re-elected last Season. Won't happen again!

The Rumwold Vastness is a Concordian [[Mithril Mine]] in [[Windholme]].

Unlike many other mines that seek the wealth of [[Mithril Mine|Mithril]], The Rumwold Vastness is a massive open pit, rather than a series of winding shafts. Over two hundred years old, The Vastness has grown slowly, owing to the fact that Mithril was not its original intention, but rather a series of useful Essencite, Bloodglass and small deposits of precious stones in the area. The wide ranging digs eventually became one massive open mine, which only grew as the Mithril vein began to be exploited.

In the current day The Vastness is three parts. The large open pit is mostly free of mine works, its veins long since depleted save for its deepest levels. Instead these spiralling ramps are home to workers, smiths and other attached industries. In homes built on old horizontal cuts or within offshoot tunnels, a population that matches the size of Rumwold township lives and thrives within the Vastness.

At the lowest levels of the mine are the only above ground workings. These deep pits are still working the mithril on the surface, bringing heavy coals and massive bellows to heat the nodules to a high enough temperature to be cut and removed. The work down here is hot, dirty and frequently flooded, but the ore is worth the trouble.

Beyond the mithril mines are hundreds of exploratory tunnels, winding away at ever single level of The Vastness. Some were creations of madness carved from the cold mountain stone by lost souls decades ago, others are still in use by some borough or another, exploiting one of the many veins of ore the dot The Vastness. Some are abandoned to all but corpses of long trapped miners, others are busy worksites home to dozens in the dark.

While the Deed Holder of The Rumwold Vastness is only due the mithril ore harvested from the mine, the truly find themselves gaining leadership or a large community. As the foremost Reeve of the Vastness in the many ways they will often be called upon to settle disputes, be they mining related or not. The Vastness is more than a mine, it is a people, a home, and a way of life.

Perhaps because of this community, The Vastness has seen some periods of nationalisation, being an Iron Valley Deed. As of 226, it is nationalised.

== Deed to The Rumwold Vastness ==
The Rumwold Vastness is a realmic deed belonging to the Iron Valley, available for election at each Spring Summit. The Vastness tends to produce 15 wains of Mithril each season.

The Eisen Orchard

2026-09-22T12:43:26Z

Mfell: Updated to reflect Nationalisation

= Eisen Orchard =
South of Eisen, along the shore of the river of the same name, lies a protected Orchard. Known as the Eisen Orchard, this place is of immense import to The Concord as it is the only grove of Thunder Oak trees currently worked by The Concord, producing an essential strategic resource needed for the creation of ships, quarries and embassies. Resinderholz Thunder Oak is known for its deep brown colour, nearly black, and is sometimes called ‘Nightswood’.

The Eisen Orchard in particular is a relic of the reign of Baronness Drewina Arnmeyer, who ruled [[Resinderholz]] many years before the Concord. An alchemist of some repute, it is said that Drewina carefully harvested and treated trees in such a manner to produce a stable and protected orchard that would resist the magical maladies of the Greenweald. Such a safe place is the Orchard that it has often been used to shelter the non-combatants of nearby Eisen in times of danger.

In the year 222, cultists of the Church of Grain and Grail, revealing themselves to be agents of the Zekartaal attacked the Orchard after infiltrating wildernesses and farms in Resinderholz. They used sacrificial magic to warp one of the Thunder Oak trees into a powerful creature known as a Lumberhaunt, which brought havoc to the region before being slain.

In the year 224, a Fae creature known as 'Gren' took up residence within the Orchard at the consent of the Deed Holder. The creature appears as a cat-like being with human hands in place of its paws. It has been beneficial to the Orchard, harvesting a small collection of herbs for the Deed Holder.

== Deed to the Eisen Orchard ==
The Eisen Orchard is a realmic deed belonging to the Greenweald Baronies, available for election at each Spring Summit. The Orchard tends to produce 15 wains of Thunder Oak each season.

The presence of Gren and other actions have allowed the Eisen Orchard to produce herbs as well as Thunder Oak. The Eisen Orchard produces herbs as if it was a Tier 3 Herb Garden.

Magli's Gift

2026-09-22T12:36:48Z

Mfell: See above regarding Season. Teehee x2

= Magli’s Gift =
Magli's Gift is an [[Arcstone Quarry|arcstone quarry]] in [[Mukarrem|Mukarrem.]]

In the scrubby foothills of Mitricasa Rise a clear and fast flowing river flows between shining stones. Cool and clean, this river has slowly exposed a vast and rippling arcstone deposit beneath the hilly soil, resulting in a long shallow canyon that shines white in the midday sun. A common camping site for the nomads who have been known to spend the hottest months sheltered by the hills woody eaves and making use of the glassy waters.

Obscured from Concordian grasp during the Al’Mai Crisis of 223-224, when the nomadic sepratists of the Al’Mai returned to the Concord after [[Throw Out Knives and Spells in Equal Measure|prolonged diplomacy]], they brought the arcstone with them. A quarry had been arranged during the isolation in such a way that the water was redirected, exposing the arcstone but preserving the vital water source for the nomads of Mukarrem. Called ‘Magli’s Gift’ after the leader of the Al’Mai, the Gift entered Concordian ownership in Summer 224 and was first auctioned shortly after.

=== Deed to Magli’s Gift ===
Magli’s Gift remains a Concordian Deed, available at public auction from the Exchange at the Autumn Summit each year. The Gift tends to produce 15 wains of Arcstone each season.

Lake Ladure Quarry

2026-09-22T12:35:14Z

Mfell: Updated to reflect Leyline production has ceased. Updated election Season to match Deed Holder main page. It is Autumn. We promise we won't muck that up, teehee.

The Lake Ladure Quarry is a boon born of folly. Sixty years ago, Count Carslile Foxton attempted to dam an offshoot of Lake Ladure to flood a custom made pond shaped like a swan. Count Foxton vastly underestimated the overall flow of the offshoot, flooding his swan lake and much of the grounds of his manor, producing ‘The Lake of Noble Folly and Mathematics’, commonly called ‘Deadswan Lake’. While Count Carslile was seen as a fool, his work did reveal deposits of Arcstone that formed the lakebed that was previously full.

In time, a vast open-cut quarry was built, producing Arcstone for the [[Kingdom of Bordevar]] and eventually the Concord. The Quarry occasionally springs a leak resulting in minor flooding from the nearby bulk of Lake Ladure itself and the Spring or Autumn storms can play havoc, but thankfully major maladies have not befallen the location since Count Foxtons initial investment. The quarry employs nearly three hundred workers from the surrounding countryside and produces the Concord’s entire supply of Arcstone at its founding.

There has been some debate over ownership of the Quarry. Prior to The Concord it was recognised as belonging to the Crown, some argue it belongs to its Deed Holder, others believe it should belong to the Duke of Everguarde, or even the people of Everguarde. The Concord appears to have resolved this somewhat with the Exchange claiming stewardship and ultimate ownership of the quarry in line with other strategic resources.

In Summer 222 the Quarry was nationalised to the Kingdom of Bordevar by the Concordian Senate, however issues with the Church Veto stalled the confirmation of this act. As such the nationalisation of this deed remains in question. This nationalisation was repealed before it could be acted upon.

In Winter 224 damage to the surrounding area by the Onyx Aristocracy assaults of 223 and the creation of the Crystal Maw by the Shardcircle produced numerous odd effects on the Quarry. Most beneficial among these was the gradual spontaneous appearance of crystal mana within the quarry, which has also begun to be harvested. As of 226, this harvesting has ceased as the material has become unavailable.

=== Deed to the Lake Ladure Quarry ===
The Lake Ladure Quarry is a realmic deed belonging to the Kingdom of Bordevar, available for election at each Autumn Summit. The Quarry tends to produce 15 wains of Arcstone each season.

=== History of the Lake Ladure Quarry ===
The Lake Ladure Quarry was nationalised to the Kingdom of Bordevar in Autumn 225.

Mercenary Banner

2026-09-22T02:57:06Z

Mfell: Note for removal added at top.

'''PLEASE NOTE: Mercenary Banner has been removed as a Magic Item and is not available to be crafted. This is due to many complicated reasons, but primarily it does not fit within the current desired game design as currently written and working. It may be reviewed and returned in the future, but for now rests in the hands of the Team.'''

The heart of a heroic mercenary band. Mercenary banners allow groups of mercenaries, wandering heroes, or warriors dedicated to saving the Concord by any means to align themselves with a Realm not their own. Doing so retains their original citizenship, culture, and allegiance, but allows the Waystones to transport them to a different Realm’s areas of concern.

=== Game Information ===

==== Form ====
Concordia: Banner

==== Rarity ====
Masterwork

==== Materials ====
Crafting a Mercenary Banner requires 3 Measures of Hartswood, 3 Measures of Beastbone, 3 Measures of Blacksap, 3 Measures of Shimmering Scales, 3 Measures of Forgesteel, 3 Measures of Suns Iron, 3 Measures of Bloodglass, and 3 Measures of Essencite.

==== Effect ====
On the first day of a Summit, this Concordia may be presented, along with all members of the Band attuned to a fragment of this Concordia, and the Champion of a Realm, to the Commandant of the War Chamber. During this presentation the Band Leader must declare their intent to fight alongside the realm of the Champion present. For the remainder of the event, Band members attuned to a fragment of this Concordia count as members of that Champion’s Realm for the purposes of attending Confluxes, not their own realm. Once a member of the Band attuned to a Fragment of this Concordia has attended a single conflux this Summit, they may not become unattuned to this Fragment for the remainder of the Summit.

Traumatic Wounds

2026-09-20T14:22:22Z

Mfell: Major updates to detecting Traumatic Wounds! Notably, Minor Physical Wounds can be hidden if appropriate, Arcane Wounds clarify requiring consent as per regular Spellcasting, and lastly Spiritual Wounds got a major clarification! Detecting Spiritual Wounds requires a 15 Second prayer to an eternal, rather than just 'checking someones vibe'. Hopefully makes it a more engaging experience, and makes more sense as to how a 'priest' is detecting spritual maladies! Woo!

== What are Traumatic Wounds? ==
Traumatic Wounds represent your character taking a large amount of damage, or being impacted by a particularly strong effect, be that physical, arcane, or spiritual. They are laminated pieces of paper in different colours, with the colour demonstrating the type of Traumatic Wound.

The cards themselves are mechanical objects, not roleplay objects; they are not physically ‘in’ the world of Concord. As such, they cannot be used in character to communicate the conditions of the Wound, nor to diagnose without in-character interaction; the communication of Wounds is done through the roleplay of that Wound.

Traumatic Wounds are held closed with velcro, with the Roleplay and Mechanical Effects of the Wound on the outside, and the Cure for the Wound on the inside. Traumatic Wounds can only be opened by characters with the applicable skills, detailed below.

Traumatic Wounds are given out at the discretion of the Concord Team as a tool to enable roleplay, provide content, and to represent the real consequences of actions undertaken at events. Typically, Traumatic Wounds are handed out at the end of a Conflux by members of the Concord Team to signify your character being seriously wounded, or being affected by arcane or divine powers. They can, however, be given through other forms as well, such as, but not limited to, crafting Potions, using Artifacts, reading Letters, or undertaking Ceremonies.

Traumatic Wounds come in three intensity levels, to represent the intensity of various injuries and ailments: Minor, Moderate, and Severe.

Some Traumatic Wounds, if left untreated, progress in intensity. Such Wounds will have a statement such as ‘Alert a member of the Story Team if you still have this Wound at the end of the event’ in the Mechanical Effects or Cure section.

== What types of Traumatic Wounds are there? ==
There are seven types of Traumatic Wounds:

=== Physical Wounds ===
Physical Wounds represent those that impact the body of your character. They may stem from things such as having shrapnel from an arrow stuck in your torso, a mundane disease ravaging your immune system, or a blow to the head rendering you unconscious. Physical Wounds can come in Minor, Moderate, and Severe intensity.

Physical Wounds can be diagnosed and treated by those with the Surgeon skill, and are pink in colour. There is no designated diagnosis timer, but Surgeons should ensure that discovering Physical Wounds is given appropriate time and space as needed in the scene. It is possible for those with Minor Physical Wounds to hide their Wounds from Surgeons, opting not to provide their Traumatic Wound upon diagnosis, where appropriate. Moderate and Severe Physical Wounds cannot be hidden, unless the circumstance of the Wound allows.

An example of the outside and the inside of a Minor Physical Wound can be found below:
[[File:BustedKnee.jpg|center|frameless|750x750px]]
[[File:BustedKnee2.jpg|center|frameless|750x750px]]

=== Spiritual Wounds ===
Spiritual Wounds represent those that impact the soul of your character. They may stem from things such as a possessor spirit attempting to control you, a shaking of your connection to The Spheres, or an event of massive emotional impact. Spiritual Wounds can come in Minor, Moderate, and Severe intensity.

Spiritual Wounds can be diagnosed and treated by those with the Divine Lore skill, and are yellow in colour. To diagnose a Spiritual Wound, one must call upon a Prayer to an Eternal, calling on the power of The Divine to detect Spiritual malady. This Prayer must take a minimum of 15 Seconds, and may only be cast on willing targets.

An example of the outside of a Minor Spiritual Wound can be found below:
[[File:AloneInTheWorld.jpg|center|frameless|750x750px]]

=== Arcane Wounds ===
Arcane Wounds represent those that impact the innate magic of your character. They may stem from things such as being targeted by aggressive magic, overuse of your own magic, or being in close proximity to latent magical energies. Arcane Wounds can come in Minor, Moderate, and Severe intensity.

Arcane Wounds can be diagnosed through the casting of the Detect Magic spell, require the intervention of those with Magus skill to treat, and are blue in colour. Casting the Detect Magic spell follows all of the regular spellcasting rules, requiring the consent of the Wounded.

An example of the outside of a Minor Arcane Wound can be found below:
[[File:Tonguethief.jpg|center|frameless|750x750px]]

=== Physical/Spiritual Wounds ===
Physical/Spiritual Wounds represent those that impact the body and the soul of your character. They may stem from things such as violence in battle scarring you physically and emotionally, or your physical connection to The Spheres being impacted. Physical/Spiritual Wounds can come in Moderate and Severe intensity.

Physical/Spiritual Wounds can be diagnosed by those with the Surgeon skill and/or the Divine Lore skill, and often require both physical and spiritual intervention to be cured. They are orange in colour. An example of the outside of a Moderate Physical/Spiritual Wound can be found below:
[[File:GoneHungry.jpg|center|frameless|750x750px]]

=== Spiritual/Arcane Wounds ===
Spiritual/Arcane Wounds represent those that impact the soul and the magic of your character. They may stem from things such as a magical effect tampering with your connection to The Spheres, or the power of The Spheres impacting your ability to do magic. Spiritual/Arcane Wounds can come in Moderate and Severe intensity.

Spiritual/Arcane Wounds can be diagnosed by those with the Divine Lore skill and/or through the casting of the Detect Magic spell, and often require both spiritual and arcane intervention to be cured. They are green in colour. An example of the outside of a Moderate Spiritual/Arcane Wound can be found below:
[[File:WhispersofTheBeyond.jpg|center|frameless|750x750px]]

=== Arcane/Physical Wounds ===
Arcane/Physical Wounds represent those that impact the magic and the body of your character. They may stem from things such as magical rituals manifesting physically, or your blood being infected with the arcane. Arcane/Physical Wounds can come in Moderate and Severe intensity.

Arcane/Physical Wounds can be diagnosed through the casting of the Detect Magic spell and/or those with the Surgeon skill, and often require both arcane and physical intervention to be cured. They are purple in colour. An example of the outside of a Moderate Arcane/Physical Wound can be found below:
[[File:BeesinTheBones.jpg|center|frameless|750x750px]]

=== Physical/Arcane/Spiritual Wounds ===
Physical/Arcane/Spiritual Wounds represent those that impact the body, magic, and soul of your character. Physical/Arcane/Spiritual Wounds can be diagnosed by those with the Surgeon skill, through the casting of the Detect Magic spell, and/or those with the Divine Lore skill. Physical/Arcane/Spiritual Wounds only come in Severe intensity, and are black in colour.

== How are Traumatic Wounds diagnosed? ==
As stated above, the diagnosis of all Traumatic Wounds requires an individual with the applicable skill to engage in appropriate diagnostic roleplay with the ‘patient,’ based on the patient’s own roleplay.

As such, it is important that the diagnosis of Traumatic Wounds is done in character, and through in-character means, rather than based on the physical presence of the Wound cards - this allows the individual with the Wound an opportunity to play their character and react to their circumstance, providing them more fun, and allows those attempting to help them the chance to do the same.

For example:

* ''An individual with the Busted Knee Physical Wound may roleplay limping out of the portal, prompting a Surgeon to interact with them through doing a physical check up, and diagnosing the Wound.''
* ''An individual with the Alone in the World Spiritual Wound may roleplay being despondent, being listless in conversations, or staying away from the Church, prompting a Priest to check in on their wellbeing through having a conversation, and diagnosing the Wound.''
* ''An individual with the Tonguethief Arcane Wound may roleplay being silent, clutching at their throat, prompting a Mage with the Detect Magic spell to cast the spell upon the individual, diagnosing the Wound.''

However, given the world of Concord and the mechanical nature of the Traumatic Wound cards, individuals may attempt to diagnose Wounds that are not applicable to their skills. This interaction is allowed and encouraged, however needs to be navigated in-character, rather than meta-gaming through knowledge of the card colours.

Some Wounds are more difficult to diagnose due to their Roleplay Effects - this is by design. A Surgeon, for example, would not necessarily be looking for individuals being sad or angry, but would immediately see someone clutching one of their arms, while a Mage may not pay attention to someone limping, but would take note of someone consuming more Crystal Mana than usual.

For example:

* ''An individual with the Alone in the World Spiritual Wound may roleplay being despondent, being listless in conversations, or staying away from the Church, prompting a Mage with the Detect Magic spell to cast it upon them. As they do not have the Divine Lore skill, they do not ‘see’ the Wound, nor diagnose it, and may then decide that this individual is simply being mopey, leaving it at that.''
* ''An individual with the Tonguethief Arcane Wound may roleplay being silent, clutching at their throat, prompting a Surgeon to do a physical check in. As they have not cast the Detect Magic spell, they do not see a Wound, nor diagnose it. However, they may then choose to ask a Priest or Mage to check in on the character, as they know that something is happening to hamper the individual’s ability to speak.''

Both of these responses are appropriate, as they take place entirely in character. Particularly in the case of Spiritual and Arcane Wounds, it is up to your character to decide whether another character is acting outside of their normal behaviour, and react accordingly. Some characters know each other better, and so know when another is acting out of sorts, while some may be more distant, and so take another as simply being churlish.

The Civil Service report exists as the driest, least adorned, and most load-bearing of all documents within The Concord. It contains within it details regarding The Concord's wars, its finances, its titles, and its misfortunes in equal value. While it may be of no use to you at all, it might also be the most useful document you read this season. A gamble with only your time and boredom as a wager.

== Quartermaster’s Report ==
The Civil Service wishes to report that the following Concordian works have been completed, and will be available for use or deployment at the following Summit:

* The Mortensen Manor, a [[Huntsmarshall]] Headquarters in Hunters Wood, Resinderholz

* [[Master of the Order of the Sacred Journey|The Order of the Sacred Journey]], a unique monastery in Hunters Wood, Resinderholz
* [[Opal Oasis]], a Thunderoak Orchard in Civisello Hills, in The Tribelands
* The Saltknives, a Lerona Mere [[Spymaster|Spy Network]], based in Marepato, Mancante Terra, targeting The Drowned
* Voyant’s Steel Vanguard, a Lerona Mere realmic [[General|army]]

The aqueduct known as [[Propositions of Possibilities|Corazón El Acueducto]] that will join Obregon to the oasis in its west also remains under construction. A considerable investment, and requiring even more considerable time, its construction goes well, and is expected to be complete by Autumn 227. [[Propositions of Possibilities#Build Stone and Build Again|The Vault of Ranhilde]] is expected to finalise construction around the same time.

The Civil Service wishes to highlight the following changes to titles;

* For the sake of ease, and ensuring the voices of Concordian titles are heard, all Concordian titles now have the right of address in The Senate. The standard rules apply, not requiring forewarning, but being limited to two minutes each. The right of address details are to be removed from each title’s powers, and rather just added to the Senate log.
* The [[Head Surgeon|Head Surgeon of the Passage Field Hospital]] has gained the power of publication.
* The [[Abbot of Mivara]] has had their title extended to be 1 Year.
* The [[The Concordian Throne|Concordian Throne]] has had its title rewritten to better fall in line with modern understandings of The Concord, and its most powerful title. These powers are granted to it by The Concordian Constitution and expanded understandings determined by the High Magistrates.

== Council Changes ==
The Symposiarch wishes to report the following:

* Senators have had their power to call for recess modified. Each senator shall be permitted to call for a single recess per summit, rather than per session.
* The Senate treasury, in order to better ensure clear counting of funds, will be closed to donations as of midnight on the second night of Summit.
* Commissions are now required to be paid for full at commissioning, rather than staggered with longer construction times.

The Civil Service wishes to report the following:

* The following councils have the ability to publish documents, through their motions: The Senate and The Council of Six. No other councils have this power, due to staffing restrictions, innate secrecy, or lack of attention required on this front.
* The following councils have the ability to request the creation of titles; The Senate, The Shardcircle, and The Council of Six. The War Chamber, The Exchange, and Realmic Councils, cannot request, or create titles. Greater majority motions within the Church can request the creation of titles.

The Curate wishes to report the following:

* High Priests, when elected due to a term expiring, will be elected at First Blessing (6pm on the first night of Summit). Votes for High Priest must be cast through the standard method, and will be counted during the first blessing by a member of the Church Civil Service. This means votes will need to be cast between the summit opening at 3pm and the votes closing at 6pm. High Priest elections during all other times will conclude at the next Council of Six.

The Concordian Treasury reports the following:

The Concordian Treasury at the beginning of the Spring Summit is expected to be valued at fifty-nine vaults, sixteen locks, and seven keys. This is after the calculation of costs, income, and assured expenses.

Current expenditure to support Concordian efforts is valued at forty eight vaults, twelve locks.

Current income from Concordian taxation is valued at one hundred vaults and twenty locks.

The Treasury Report will be available from the Civil Service from 6pm on the first day of the Summit. It is a secret document, following the standard rules around such a document.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mfell: Various edits to bring in line with current ruling/wording. Could still use some work, but cest la vie

Something you want to know but cannot find information on? Have a look below.

Something missing? Let us know! concordplot@gmail.com

== Who can use Staves? ==
Staves are a term no longer used in game. Now any reference to Staves should be assumed to refer to Polearms.

== Herb Use as Surgeon ==
You can apply only one herb with at a time in 30 seconds as a Surgeon. You can then apply a second, but that takes another 30 seconds. If another player is downed, you can use 1 herb whislt also conducting 30 seconds of mending (for example, applying StoneStem whislt mending will bring another player back on 1 HP and heal one broken limb)

== Defending while [[Spellcasting]] ==
You cannot defend while casting spells, however you may dodge attacks as long as you remain below a walking speed.

== Casting onto an Ally in Combat ==
If you, OR the target of a Support spell engages in combat, the spell fails.

== Magus is a Prerequisite to all Magic Skills ==
You must take the Magus skill to take any magic skills.

== Does [[Combat Skills|Stay with Me]] count as magic ? ==
Nope! As a general rule, if it costs '''energy''' it isn't magic.

== Moving while in Bleed Out ==
A character in Bleed Out cannot move under their own accord. However, they can be moved by others, friendly or enemy, and this includes being pushed through an open Waystone Portal (say, to send them home). Moving a person requires two free hands. Both of them can be yours, or one from two people.

This does not apply to unsafe situations - OOC safety overrides every rule in the game. If you are not safe, move to a safer location.

== Ceremonies are not Magic ==
Ceremonies, while coming in the very long term, from the same place as magic, are not magic, and can be performed in Medium or Heavy Armour as you wish.

== How many [[potions]] can I drink? ==
You can drink as many potions as you want! There is not limit on consumption or carry amount. Keep in mind Tonics (which are generally buffs) overtake each other, so the latest one you have drunk takes effect.

== What happens if an arrow strikes two people? ==
''If an arrow hits two people (not the shaft, the actual arrowhead) do they both take damage and be affected by shackle? I've had a couple recently that have skimmed someone, or hit someone's soft kit (which still counts) and then hit a second person''

This one falls under the "player makes the call on what effects them" and isn't a hard rule. If both feel that they got hit, they got hit. If one felt it and the other didn't, their call.

== Can the [[Surgical Skills|Mender]] skill heal hitpoints? ==
No. The description says "returns that character to 1 hitpoint", which means it can only be used on someone in Bleed Out.

== Armour amounts per location ==
There's no X percentage per location to qualify for "armour points" - you need to wear a significant amount on two locations of what you're claiming (light, medium or heavy armour). You can only wear Heavy if you have the Armoured skill. So no wearing a few locations of plate to get Medium armour.

== Aesthetic pieces of armour ==
''Helmets for example but also perhaps jack chains or just small plate elements that would not otherwise make up enough to claim heavy (knee or elbow cops perhaps). Is that OK for folks claiming medium?''

By rules, aesthetic heavy armour isn't allowed without the Armoured Skill. Small amounts are acceptable, ideally significantly less than 25% location coverage, as a complement to significant Medium armour, as long as it's quite clear that the armour majority is Medium.

'''Please don't overuse this'''

We don't want anyone wearing one location of plate and one Medium and calling it Medium. Our distinctions exist for a reason.

The reverse of this is true without deliberation - a character with Heavy Armour may wear extra Medium Armour in order to achieve total coverage for Fracture resistance.

At the end of the day, visually "going up a level of armour" without the Heavy Armour skill is not allowed.

== What happens if you are affected by a second Effect during the first? ==
''For example, shackle and then knockback within a few seconds?''

The latest effect takes precedence and removes the previous. In the example, the Shackle ends and the Knockback effect must be performed. This is same implied process as when a Stun effect is ended prematurely by an amount of damage be it from a weapon or a spell.

== Does everyone get 10 keys at the start of every game? ==
Correct!*

<nowiki>*</nowiki>This has been reduced to 7 Keys as of the Winds entry [[Are We One or Are We Five?|Are We One or Are We Five]]. This will remain the case until the State of Emergency has ended.

== Would doing First Aid be possible whilst wearing medium or heavy armour? ==
''Such as via a Medic's Gambeson''

No, Medics Gambeson is Light Armour only. Wearing Medium or Heavy Armour effectively overrides the Light Armour you are wearing elsewhere even if it is not covered over.

== Can I physically remove Armour to use an ability granted by lesser armour? ==
''For example, wearing Medium or Heavy Armour over a Medic's Gambeson, and ripping it off to administer first aid.''

Yes you could reasonably do so, but confirm with a member of the ST Team. It is important that when you do, you reduce your health by the appropriate amount to reflect reduced protection by the armour you have removed.

== If I have passed a combat clearance at another LARP, do I need to pass Concord's clearance? ==
Yes, absolutely. You need to attend one at an event, or one at a training event, before engaging in any combat for Concord. If a player doesn't attend one of those and has not been cleared by Concord previously, they aren't fighting. Concord requires every player to have completed a Player Briefing, and you must also be separately cleared to use a bow.

== How do you use Artisans Oil? Does it have a Casting Time? ==
Artisans Oil takes 30 seconds to apply to a broken weapon, after which the weapon is repaired. The roleplay is interrupted if you or the item are struck or if you engage in combat or move faster than a walking pace. The oil is not consumed in this circumstance, but the roleplay must begin again.

== Can Artisans Oil be made during a summit, or via [[Cakenomics Guide.|Gamenomics]]? ==
Artisan's oil is unique in requiring far less time to produce than other Artisan Crafts. An artisan may create a single use of Artisan's Oil by bringing two different measures of Artisan Resources (Blacksap, Hartswood, Beastbone, Shimmering Scale, Essencite, Sun’s Iron, Forgesteel or Bloodglass) to the Exchange, during a Summit!

== Can you start casting a spell whilst under the affects of Silence, as long as Silence Ends before you complete the spell? ==
The Team has discussed and we believe that for Casting to be obvious to the people around you, as well as give it the important fantasy experience of magic as best as our primary medium of play allows, it must be audible.

It is highly encouraged to adopt additional Roleplay elements (such as props) to your casting, but it must be audible

See [[Spellcasting]] for more information.

== How does Wealdsage corruption work? ==
''(Question asked and answered on the Greenweald discord, copied exactly)''

Corruption is anything that makes a Wealdsage less trustworthy or loyal to the Baronies.

Unfortunately vague.

Historically and most thematically is when various malign entites of the Weald, be they curses, monsters or something in between, offer power or wealth or something similar to a Wealdsage in exchange for deferential treatment or selling out their fellow Wealders. Navigating this relationship is a core part of the Wealdsage experience and is also why they aren't trusted, you never know when they might have already dropped off the end of trustworthiness.

This is largely played out with some STUFF that is happening at game and is very much coming at the Wealdsages (check out some of the Winds from last summit for a sense of that ([[A Matter Fit of Boghoffens|https://wiki.concordlarp.com/index.php/A_Matter_Fit_of_Boghoffens]] and [[Of Monsters and Mice|https://wiki.concordlarp.com/index.php/Of_Monsters_and_Mice]] are good examples). This will definitely be present at next event and if you run around being as corruptable as possible we will do our best to have you run into this sort of stuff.

I've also seen some players use it in backstory. Nothing too insane, but stuff like "I made a deal with a ghost and thats why I have the Magus skill" is very doable.

Finally, corruption need not be magic. A Wealdsage who sells secrets to a foreign nation COULD be called corrupt. A Wealdsage who works with criminals could be called corrupt. Wealdsages could be mistakenly accused. It is a very inspecific cultural idea as well.

==== Questions about how Unstoppable Works ====
''Is it okay to hit the unstoppabling player throughout the channel?''

Legally, yes. However based on the player brief you do still have an obligation to be fun to interact with. Being unfun to someone doing unstoppable would contravene that.

''Does fracture go through even if the damage from the strike does not?''

It does. Fracture would not disrupt the channel (you can unstoppable with broken limbs) but would take effect.

''Can you actively block as part of your roleplay in unstoppable?''

You may block as a part of your roleplay but it should not obscure or replace your roleplay.

''If you are under the effect of a magic item or ceremony which changes damage 3 to knockback, during unstoppable does a damage 3 become an immune or change to the knockback still?''

It replaces them, rather than replacing them when you want them to. So it would turn to knock back which would disrupt it

Mfell: Slight edits to bring in line with Sign Out and Downtime, rather than the old Character Bag system from years ago

''See also:''

* [[Magic Items]]
* [[Crafting Skills]]
* [[List of Artisan Crafts|Complete list of Artisan Crafts]]
Crafts (often also referred to as "Artisan Items") are magical items produced by an Artisan. Every character who has the Artisan skill gains a number of Plans their character knows, with which they can craft specific Magic Items. To craft an item during the season, an Artisan needs to submit Downtime, and ensure any required resources were handed to the Concord Team during Sign Out at a Summit.

==== '''How do I get them?''' ====
Remember you can only craft a maximum of three items per season, can only craft items you know how to make, can only make a maximum of one of each item, can only make one item of each rarity and must have the resources handed to the Concord Team during Sign Out. New characters with the Artisan Skill start with one Journeyman item that they know how to make in their character packet, as chosen through the Character Creator. If they do not know how to make any Journeyman items, they will start with three sets of Artisans Oil.

==== '''How long do they last?''' ====
All magical items have a durability, only surviving a certain amount of Summits before their magic fades. This durability increases with the power of the item. As such, Journeyman items will last two Summits, Expert items will last three Summits and Masterwork items will last four Summits. You may encounter Artifact items in your time at Concord, these are powerful magical items that have no durability, but cannot be crafted by mortal hands, so far.

==== '''Using an Artisan Item at an Event''' ====
To use an artisan item at an event you need to have met four requirements. They are as follows:

''You must have a item tag for the appropriate item.''

This will be a single-use tyrek wristband with the item's name and expiration date listed on it. This tag should remain with the bonded item between Summits, or be kept by the player if unbonded.

''You must have a Physical representation for the item.''

This should match the type of item and the descriptions of those are below. Your item tag should be attached to this item.

''You must be bonded to your item.''

This can be completed by an Artisan. This can be done by performing a roleplay process individual to that character, but requiring an amount of time based on the item's complexity (see below). This roleplay must include both the physical representation of the item and the individual it would be bonded to. Examples could include anointing with oils, last-minute modifications, a meditation on the arcane powers of the object, or a final training session. At the end of this bonding, the artisan should attach the item tag to the physical representation. An item becomes unbonded when it is bonded to another person.
{| class="wikitable"
!Item Complexity
!Duration of Roleplay Required
|-
|Journeyman
|2 Minutes
|-
|Expert
|5 Minutes
|-
|Masterwork
|8 Minutes
|}
''You must expend the appropriate resources if required and meet any additional requirements.''

While not always required, some artisan items require an expenditure of resources (such as mana, energy or other items), this cannot be avoided. Some artisan items also allow you to 'cast a spell as if you knew it' this still requires the standard spellcasting rules in regards to armour, movement, time, and mana expenditure.

= Artisan Item Type Descriptions =
Each Artisan Item has a 'type' (either weapon, talisman, armour, banner or reliquary) and a 'subtype'. Each character can only have one item of each TYPE bonded to them at a time. While the subtype is simply used to clarify the form the item should take. The item types and subtypes are as follows:

'''Weapon: Short'''

A weapon that meets the requirements of a short weapon.

'''Weapon: One Handed'''

A weapon that meets the requirements of a one-handed weapon.

'''Weapon: Great Weapon'''

A weapon that meets the requirements of a great weapon.

'''Weapon: Polearm'''

A weapon that meets the requirements of a polearm.

'''Weapon: Pair: X and X'''

A pair of weapons that meet the requirements of the listed weapons.

'''Weapon: Bow'''

A weapon that meets the requirements of a bow.

'''Talisman: Battlemages Circlet'''

A prop that meets the requirements and is approved as a battlemages circlet. Requiring the Battlemage skill to use.

'''Talisman: Tool'''

A prop that represents some kind of tool based on the item's name. Generally speaking, the prop should be of notable size, so a set of tools rather than a single object (Set of picks, vs one lock pick, a whole mortar, and pestle vs a potion vial.)

'''Talisman: Shield'''

A shield that meets the requirements for combat-safe construction.

'''Talisman: Jewelry'''

A prop that acts as an ornamental accessory such as a necklace, crown, bracelet, or ring. May also include bone pendants, leather bands, and other non-metal options.

'''Reliquary:'''

A holy artifact. Should be of notable size (basketball or larger). The exact appearance will vary from Sect to Sect. A sect can only be bonded to one Reliquary at a time.

'''Concordia: Banner'''

A large banner, displayed in a common area within the Band’s camp. At least 1m long and 80cm wide. Fragments of this Concordia should appear as slivers of the banner, or strips in the style of the banner at least 15cm long. A band can only bond to one Concordia at a time.

'''Concordia: Icon'''

An object of importance, displayed in a common area within the Band’s camp. At least 30cm by 30cm by 30cm. Fragments of this Concordia should appear to to be piece of the Concordia at least 10cm by 10cm. A band can only bond to one Concordia at a time.

'''Armour: Clothes'''

A particular piece of clothing worn by a character, normally a tunic or coat.

'''Armour: Light'''

A set of armour that meets the light armour requirements.

'''Armour: Medium'''

A set of armour that meets the medium armour requirements.

'''Armour: Heavy'''

A set of armour that meets the heavy armour requirements.

= <big>Resources</big> =
There are eight resources used by Artisans that can be acquired during play, such as purchasing through the Exchange, trading with other players, or from Downtime activities.

All resources are represented by a physical card (a "phys-rep") that may be the item itself, a deed of ownership, a measure of an amount or a wain of a large amount.

; <nowiki>These resources are usually encountered as several item measures or ingots:</nowiki>
: '''Natural Goods''' - Hartwood, Beastbone, Blacksap, Shimmering Scales; '''Minerals''' - Forgesteel, Sun’s Iron, Bloodglass, and Essencite.

Betrayer's Fleshcurse

2026-09-07T12:11:17Z

Mfell: Fleshing out the TBC parts, and updating the effects. Reworded the core interaction with Traumatic Wounds to be more in line with how Wounds work, and removed the incurable Wounds effect as it would simply be a death sentence.

== A [[Cervitas Ceremonies|Cervitas Ceremony]] - Magnitude 35 - The Blooded Stone ==

== Performing the Ceremony ==
Performing this Ceremony takes at least 10 minutes of roleplaying. This Ceremony targets a character who must be present throughout, but need not be one of the priests performing the Ceremony. They become the Prophet as described in the rules about [[Ceremonies Overview#Some Ceremonies are listed as Curses. The power to deliver a curse is imbued in one of the individuals who performed the ceremony.|Curses]].

This Ceremony is a Curse, and therefore interacts with anything that would remove or affect Curses.

== Effects ==
The Cursed character is constantly under the effect of Venom. This cannot be removed or interrupted in any way while the Curse is in effect.

When the Cursed character suffers a Traumatic Wound, they should inform the Marshal supplying it. The Wound will then be replaced by one of a greater Severity. If receiving a Severe Wound, the character will instead have a chance to receive an additional Severe Wound, at the discretion of the Marshal.

If the character becomes terminal while under this Curse, they are overwhelmed by feverish delirium and suffer a slow, agonizing death as the flesh rots from their bones. This agonizing death cannot be commuted by any way while the Curse is in effect - any lower level Ceremonies, herbs or surgeon actions will simply fail to do anything.

As long as they are Cursed the target experiences a roleplaying effect: ''You are constantly sick and in discomfort - you experience fevers and itching constantly, and your wounds never seem to close properly.''

The roleplaying and mechanical effect lasts for four events, including the one where it is given.

== Description ==
The Fleshcurse takes many forms. In some cases, individuals Cursed suffer extreme rashes that will not dissipate. In others, cuts and bruises simply never heal. In the worst instances, the individual suffers both, and yet more and more and more. The Fleshcurse eats away at the very idea of hoping to heal. Graces find their trappings suffer in unique and mysterious ways, though it is unclear if this is an effect caused by the divine magic, or simply a result of the intense injuries.

This Curse is one that is hard to not notice. Visually and physically, the Cursed individual is clearly in a constant state of suffering. This begins relatively minor, but by the end of the Curse it is impossible to avoid, as the two years take their toll on body and mind. This is not a Curse to be given lightly.

== Performing the Ceremony ==
Perhaps one of the most vicious Curses available to priests of The Concord, Betrayer's Fleshcurse risks representing everything that Cervitas is not. Actions that cause fear and harm are encouraged. Letting blood, screaming words of hate. Creating a space within which the flesh is encouraged to be weak, with hammer, mallet and tools. Creating a world in which punishment is required, with words of broken trust, written promises torn and destroyed before the Prophet.

The Prophet is expected to whether this storm of hate, particularly when the Prophet intends or is intended to keep the Curse themselves, but where they are not the target of the Curse they must be treated with kindness and forgiveness once they have completed their duty. The Anathemic qualities of this Curse should be mitigated by priests who were not a part of the Ceremony once it has concluded.

What to Expect at a Concordian Summit

2026-08-28T12:12:31Z

Mfell: Some updates to wording on Non-Combatants to better match the reality of events. (Did we ever use the markers? Who knows.) Some quick fixing to the appropriate threats that are expected. (No more Illsevir, Drowned and Severed Lords are my new best friends.) Possible further edits to the page post Summit, but this is serviceable for now!

Concord events are quite strenuous camping weekends including many hours of intrigue, combat and socialising. Expect to spend a lot of your time talking to other players, spending many hours in-character and also experiencing a wide variety of social situations.

Expect some frantic combat at both the large and small scale. The combat of Concord is intended to provide a fun physical challenge, an immersive experience and also a chance for the story to come to a head in a single decisive at-game moment. Combat is dangerous, but also incredibly fulfilling, both in and out of character.

Expect a weekend of camping, with its included challenges. Currently showers are not easy to come by and your bed is as good as you can bring down. But for a lot of our players camping is a part of the appeal all the same.

Concord is also a game with an expansive lore that is interwoven with the experience of playing the game. Expect a world with dedicated storytellers and writers, with a chance to read, explore and learn about a fantasy land.

See also [[Event Information]] for further specifics and check out the excellent [[Character Creation]] page for advice on creating a character.

== How do I play? ==
As a LARP, Concord has a series of rules, guidelines and advice that must be followed to allow the event to run enjoyable and safely.

These rules are designed to offer depth to combat, but be easy enough to pick up and learn for new players. These range from how you cast powerful spells, all the way through to when vehicles are allowed on site for drop off and pick up. We ask that everyone make the time both in the lead up to the event and between events to look over these rules and guidelines so that everyone can have a safer experience.

All players must undertake a [[Player Brief]] in order to play Concord LARP

Players also get a chance to be a Non-Player Character (NPC) for confluxes - we have a dedicated page on this! See [[How to NPC at Concord]]

== Children at Concord ==
Concord LARP is an event that aims to be open to LARPers of all ages, with the idea that having children and young people present in a world adds not only authenticity but also variety to the experiences of all involved. We encourage younger players to involve themselves in the world, to experience the story, and add to it in their own way, with the expectation that will do so to their fullest and with the support of the community and their guardians.

There is a whole page on this. [[Children at Concord|Check it out]] if you are interested in bringing a future Concordian Citizen to Concord.

== Confluxes ==
Each event is set during a Summit, a time when heroes, influential individuals and hopefuls attend the newly constructed Concordian Capital of Passage. Here they hope to change the course of history, make great wealth, meet with allies and ensure the survival of their people. Passage itself is home to powerful arcane stones known as Waystones. These Waystones allow mages to open temporary portals to locations held by the Concord or near to them. These portal events are known as Confluxes and occur in a variety of forms throughout the Summit.

'''Minor Confluxes''' - A small party of adventurers exploring a recently discovered tomb, assassins striking at an exposed general, or priests conducting a distant ritual. Minor Confluxes are short and moments of import.

'''Skirmish Confluxes''' - A band of warriors striking a foe where they are weak, the last holdout of the final defenders, the mass meeting of strange shamans. Skirmish confluxes are larger events for between 10-30 people, sometimes organised by realm, but other times not.

'''Strategic Confluxes''' - The might of the Concord brought to the field. Half the players field as their heroes against the other half giving life to the Concord’s foes in battles that determine the fate of history. Twice an event, once on Saturday, once on Sunday.<blockquote>A word from the team. If you play your PC in one Strategic Conflux, you must be available to NPC the other. You can go to 0 Strategic Confluxes as your PC, and 0 as an NPC. You can go to 1-2 Strategic Confluxes as an NPC, and 0 as a PC. You cannot go to 1 as a PC and 0 as an NPC. If that happens, we just won’t have enough people to have the fights.

There are also options to opt to NPC for Skirmishes as well – depending on PC numbers we may need additional NPCs for these as well, which will be signposted at game with the times and NPCs needed. Volunteer now! The Concord needs you!

We will be providing basic costume to set apart NPCs , as well as some loaner equipment, but if you are able to bring spare armour/equipment you don’t mind using we would appreciate it. Armouring 50+ NPCs is beyond our budget at this point. If you are able to bring different kit to wear to set yourself apart as one of the NPC groups, there’s a short list below of general themes for the NPC.

'''The Drowned''':

Lots of armour. Shields, archers and strange magic. Blue or sea colours. Viking raiders with an oceanic twist.

'''The Severed Lords''':

Lots of armour. Greatweapons, shields and illusions. Grey with dark base colours like black and brown. Viking raiders with a psychic twist.

'''The Zekartaal''':

Lots of weapons or magic. Green or woodsy colours. Forest savagery (bones!).

'''The Onyx Aristocracy:'''

Dark, drab colours. Ruined or torn clothing. The dead.

'''The Trade Principality of Aprivano:'''

Lots of varied weapons, armour and colours, but leaning towards oranges and yellows. Regular people, many with a greedy twist.

It is worth noting that these groups might only appear in small numbers, or even not at all depending on PC choices – the strategic confluxes are your choices to engage in after all. But if you can bring extra equipment (especially armour), we appreciate it.

Please also check out [[Rank and File - NPC Stats]] for some more information.</blockquote>

== Non-combatants ==
What does being a non combatant character mean at Concord?

Concord is designed as a game where '''you never need to participate in combat, and you will have a full game'''. You can participate in surgery (Traumatic Wounds are great fun), Ceremonies, making potions and items, trading, spying, magic, and there might even be some politics going on. None of that involves combat, without even mentioning just roleplaying, which will also likely occur at Concord.

More than just not actively participating though, some players would prefer to opt entirely out of combat, and so we are making allowances for Non-Combat characters. Note that this doesn't mean just ''"I'm not interested In combat"'' but ''"I do not want to do combat at all, even in my own defence"''. You can leave your options open and just not engage in fights with any character, a Non-Combatant is a rules enforced choice for you and other players that interact with you.

=== Being a Non Combatant ===
Any character can choose to be Non-Combatant, and they can engage fully with the entirety of the (non-combat) rules. We suggest if you make this choice, don't then take skills that require combat - weapon proficiencies are obviously a poor idea, but also some spells require you to engage in combat even if you don't want to use a weapon (offensive magic, and healing to an extent).

* '''Any Non-Combat character should not attack, either with melee or ranged weapons, or with combat spells.'''

They can be defeated, if you approach to within range where you can clearly strike them, announce clearly you are doing so, and they immediately reduce themselves to 0HP, with standard Bleed Out rules. It is up to the Non-Combatant to monitor the situation around them, and drop to Bleed Out if it looks like combat is likely to approach them. This can be difficult to ascertain, but as we do not have markers to differentiate types of combatants, it is important for the Non-Combatant themselves to stay aware of potential oncoming combat and act appropriately.

This places an extra level of interaction that all players must be aware of - however for our non-combat players, please be aware we cannot absolutely guarantee you will never be struck. It is unlikely combat outside of organized duels will happen in Passage itself, and it should be clear to players engaging in it that non-combat characters can be interacted with, but not struck.

* '''Non-combat characters may not enter Strategic Confluxes or Skirmishes, unless specified otherwise.'''

Both of those types of Conflux are essentially battlefields. They will frequently have 30+ combatants on the field, and likely a lot of them hostile and fast moving. Many Minor Confluxes will not have any, or heavy combat, but if unsure please check with the Marshall running the Conflux and they should be able to assist in deciding if you should attend. The In-Character responsible party for Skirmishes and Minors is also provided with an Accessibility notice for the conflux itself, to assist in prefacing what kind of content to expect.

Otherwise, as above, you can engage with a large portion of the game, including all the politics and drama and story, while never fighting. Hopefully this will allow players who are not interested in or unable to engage in combat a measure of out of character safety in our game.

Military Orders - Autumn 226

2026-05-02T07:51:09Z

Mfell:

== Overview ==
At the Autumn Summit of 226, The Concord needed to once again face the coming storm, and try not to break. As the Summit ends, Heroes disperse back to their homes or far from them, Military Orders begin to be sent from the desk of Commandant Khasim. Orders written by the Titles of The Warchamber, and ones that would define the coming Season, and possibly the future of The Concord.

Welcome to the Military Orders page for E1 226! This page plainly lists the Orders of each Military force. This is posted publicly to assist in making the Downtime process smoother, while also giving a little bit more context to the immediate happenings of the military world post Summit.

This page will list each force, where they have travelled and which action they have taken. If you have a Military or Naval Investment and want to Support an Army, Fortification or Fleet, this can help you know which one you may wish to choose!

== Armies ==
'''The Desert Whisperers;''' Through the powers of The Thunderbolt and his knowledge of good winds, The Black Corsair, General Rashid El’Tanebar, would see his Army '''Force Marched''' to '''The Kings Pass'''. An incredibly long journey for an army so large, Andash would only reach the Valley through the power of The Spheres. Nonetheless, reach them they would.

'''The First Banner of Bordevar;''' From one war to another, Ser Louisoix Leveilleur sends his Army to the '''Cautious Defence''' of '''Bayward South'''. But they would not fight across the salt-sprayed coasts of Bolsterlee without due reward, as The Senator of Windholme declares them as Ironblood Defenders, granting them the support of The High Valley in this State of Emergency.

'''The Iron Brawlers;''' ''“Dig in and make them bleed!”'' - Brigadier Griff Baker’s words were clear enough, as his Army marched into The '''Plateau of the Gods''' and prepared to hold a '''Cautious Defence'''. The Drowned of The Sinking City and beyond would need to break against the blooded fists of Bordevar if they wanted entry.

'''The Legion of the Blackheart Bear;''' The machinations of the War Chamber required the proven talents of General Wulfden to take an otherwise crippled force on the offensive in '''La Dove Dormani'''. With this came an outpouring of support from The Concord. No expense was spared on emergency war powers and ceremonies, ensuring the soldiers have every chance to succeed in a '''Strategic Attack''' to potentially close an entire warfront.

'''The Valleys Own;''' In a display of co-operation and trust, General Thane would cede the prestige of recapturing Baelag’s Holdfast to the other half of the Bolsterlee Bastards, and in turn defend their people in '''The Priado Expanse'''. Ancestral grudges from the Age of Stars would be invoked in a '''Bloody Defence''' against an openly declared Artebazzani force.

== Fortresses ==
'''Deorlings Citadel;''' Despite its size and presence, there would be no opportunity for The Citadel to assist in the wars currently facing The Valley. Champion Baire Ironguard would grit his teeth and assign no order, knowing that there would be none that could assist in this time.

'''The Border Forts;''' Opportunities befell The Border Forts in mass amounts, but no such opportunity would present itself on the warfront this past Season. Champion Landry Tremaine would allow The Forts to continue as they must, offering no additional order as it was not deemed necessary.

== Fleets ==
'''Liberties Fist:''' New to the position but no less willing to make it known what he is willing to do, Admiral Gustave’s orders would be simple and clear. Fold sails and stay within '''The Guardian Strait''', then '''Raid''' The Priado Expanse. Ensure that any foe within suffers the wrath of Lerona Mere, and bleeds for the actions they take against The Concord.

'''The Peoples Gift;''' Admiral Brulee, perhaps not seeking to be outdone by his compatriots, would send orders to sail to '''The Guardian Strait''' with an intention that would draw blood. The order would be to '''Raid''' The Priado Expanse, sending in marines of Lerona Mere once The Valley had finished with whichever foe would be so unlucky to face The People’s wrath.

Military Orders - Autumn 225

2026-05-02T07:50:36Z

Mfell:

=='''Overview'''==

At the Autumn Summit of 225, The Concord found itself beset as always on multiple fronts. With many choices to make, The Warchamber and its Titleholders would once again face such a task and their orders would spread throughout The Concord soon after the Summit ends.

Welcome to the Military Orders page for E1 225! This is a new yet simple page that plainly lists the Orders of each Military force. We have decided to post this publicly to assist in making the Downtime process smoother, while also giving a little bit more context to the immediate happenings of the military world post Summit.

This page will list each force, where they have travelled and which action they have taken. If you have a Military or Naval Investment and want to Support an Army, Fortification or Fleet, this can help you know which one you may wish to choose!

==='''Armies'''===

'''The Desert Whisperers;''' The strongest fighting force remaining in the Concord, General Nemaia El Ankashi and her forces would return to their homeland to stage a '''Strategic Defence''' against Sister Oak in Tanebar South.

'''The First Banner of Bordevar;''' Ever willing to march but finally happy to see a break in their future, those knights and nobles of The Banner would breathe a sigh of relief as Banneret Isambard Thoss orders a '''Billet''' in Heartsgrave.

'''The Iron Brawlers;''' Brigadier Griff Baker took the first steps in honouring the pact between Iron Valley and Bordevar to retake their respective homelands. A '''Cautious Defence''' would keep their strength high in preparation for the coming offensive.

'''The Legion of the Blackheart Bear;''' The only remaining combat-capable force to be able to reach the Priado Expanse in Mukarrem, General Valrick Thanshaw would once again traverse the reaches of the Concord. The Legion would '''Strategically Defend''' their Andashi allies.

'''The Valleys Own;''' At the order of General Godric Ericsson, a well deserved '''Billet''' takes place in Highward, allowing the Valley Soldiers to rest, recuperate and recruit for a Season.

==='''Fortresses'''===

'''Deorlings Citadel;''' Champion Thorin of the Iron Valley would not see the Valley’s fortress remain idle, ordering that its warriors '''Sally Out''' to defend Windholme East against its invaders.

'''The Border Forts;''' With no direct threats to fortify against, and no true chance to sally out against an enemy, Champion Landry Tremane chooses to take no action nor order.

==='''Fleets'''===

'''Liberties Fist;''' Under the command of Admiral Pierre Capulet, Liberties Fist sails to the Guardian Strait. Their orders are simple, yet their task ever so important; '''Support''' the Legion of the Blackheart Bear.

'''The Peoples Gift;''' Sailing to the Central Great Trade Sea, Admiral Rosaria Meduse orders hostile action be taken. With the Motions of the Senate passed, and rumours of lands afar, it is not difficult to imagine who will face the brunt of this order.

Military Orders - Spring 225

2026-05-02T07:50:02Z

Mfell:

== Overview ==
At the Spring Summit of 225, The Concord found itself beset as always on multiple fronts. With many choices to make, The Warchamber and its Titleholders would once again face such a task and their orders would spread throughout The Concord soon after the Summit ends.

Welcome to the Military Orders page for E2 225! This is a hopefully simple page that plainly lists the Orders of each Military force. This is posted publicly to assist in making the Downtime process smoother, while also giving a little bit more context to the immediate happenings of the military world post Summit.

This page will list each force, where they have travelled and which action they have taken. If you have a Military or Naval Investment and want to Support an Army, Fortification or Fleet, this can help you know which one you may wish to choose!

== Armies ==
'''The Desert Whisperers;''' The Black Corsair, General Rashid El’Tanebar, would not see Andash give even an inch. Their orders coming from a captain of the sea and a leader of the land, the Priado Expanse would not fall before The Whisperers would march there to '''Strategically Defend''' it.

'''The First Banner of Bordevar;''' Needing no convincing to range out against the undead, Ser Louisoix Leveilleur, The Sage, The First, Archmage of House Avalon would join the fight in the Sableheart against Danakka Rimortis. With the push into Royal Bordevar drawing near, the righteous fury of the questing knights was restrained down to a '''Cautious Defence'''.

'''The Iron Brawlers;''' To be sent to the Madre Campo with nothing to do but '''Billett''' would come as blessed news to The Brawlers. Brigadier Griff Baker’s words would be toasted across various villas and wineries to raucous applause and minor property damage; “Rest Up Boys!”

'''The Legion of the Blackheart Bear;''' Masters of defence, fighters of wars. The Ritters of The Greenweald would read General Isolde Wulfden’s Orders and see them committed to action. With Pathfinders supplying questionable alchemical weapons after the victory of the Concordian Heroes in Vassertal, a '''Cautious Defence''' of The Sableheart would ensure everything goes to plan.

'''The Valleys Own;''' General Juka would see the recent Billett put well to use. Valley warriors would march once more across The Concord, coming once more to Mukarrem to fight against shared enemies. In the Priado Expanse, The Valley’s Own would strike up a '''Strategic Defence.'''

'''The God of War, Thorin of Bolsterlee;''' A Miracle performed and enacted upon Hero Thorin. A walking embodiment of strength and power, unmatched by any sole figure for so long as the power of Arcadian crushes and consumes this literal Champion of The Iron Valley. War-God Thorin declares The Bite of the Viper, and '''Bloody Attacks''' The King’s Pass and its coveted Holdfast.

== Fortresses ==
'''Deorlings Citadel;''' Even amidst the glory of his newfound and temporary Godhood, Champion Thorin of the Iron Valley would place his orders for the great Fortification of Windholme. They would provide a '''Fortified Defence''' against any who would enter their land.

'''The Border Forts;''' With no direct threats to fortify against, and no true chance to sally out against an enemy, Champion Ser Landry Tremane once more chooses to take no action nor order.

== Fleets ==
'''Liberties Fist:''' Under the command of Admiral Pierre Capulet, Liberties Fist once more sails to the Guardian Strait. Their orders identical to the Season just past; '''Support''' the Concordian Armies that fight against The Principality.

'''The Peoples Gift;''' Sailing beyond the Central Great Trade Sea, Admiral Rosaria Meduse sets their sights on Odrigan. The revolutionaries there will be supported by the full Naval might of The People’s Gift, their vessels set to disrupting Artebazzani trade routes and more.

Autumn 226 Interlude

2026-05-02T07:45:46Z

Mfell:

== Overview ==
Welcome to the Interlude page for the Autumn 226 Summit! This Wiki Page aims to assist in providing clarity for Downtime and other events that have resulted from Player action at the most recent Summit. On this page you can find the Downtime Submission link, public Special Actions, Council decisions and far more!

Everything you can find here in the Interlude page will also hopefully assist in providing some further reasoning to actions between Summits. For the most part, The Winds of the World themselves will answer a lot of these questions, but '''all information found here can be considered to be known in character'''! This will help for folks running Sanctioned Events, or at Game Hen Events, by providing at least a baseline understanding of what will be happening in the early stages of the Season between Summits.

In regards to Downtime itself, please note that as always '''not everyone needs to submit a Downtime'''! If you are not an Artisan, planning on taking any Special Actions (either public or known to you), and you just want to produce as standard for your Investment, then don’t feel like you have to submit. However, if getting involved in shenanigans is for you, then have a read below to work out if there is anything you can get involved in that is publicly available!

There will always be Special Actions that are private, or locked to particular Investments, Archetypes, Realms and more. '''If it is not mentioned in this Interlude Page, and you do not know what it is, we ask that you do not select it!'''

'''The Deadline for Downtime Submissions is Saturday 16th of May 2026'''

'''Downtime Form Link Here!'''

'''The Deadline for Enterprise Downtime Submissions will be updated once the Form is confirmed and posted.'''

== Councils and Choices ==
As always, the various Councils of The Concord have been busy making decisions, declarations and more. In particular, the choices of The Senate, The Church and The Warchamber are all worth knowing to both the people of Southern Esterra and the heroes of The Concord. While it may take some time for The Civil Service to publish these documents, they can be found here;

* Senate Motions
* Church Motions
* [[Military Orders - Autumn 226|Military Orders]]

Before 225, Military Orders were not made public in the same way as Senate and Church Motions until the release of The Winds of the World. The Team is hoping that by making these actions public from the get go, it can provide clarity for both Downtime and roleplay between Events.

== Investments and Downtime ==
The below section will cover the specific details that are important for particular Investments. A lot of this information is clearly listed in the Downtime Form itself, or in the Investments page, but by also adding it below it can give a bit more flavour for those who may not have had an idea of what they wanted to do!

In addition, if there are any Special Actions relating to an Investment that are public knowledge, they will be listed here too alongside a brief description! If you don’t see your Investment listed, it just means that there are no additional notes that may be relevant to you for Downtime and the Interlude, beyond the narrative of last Season’s Winds and the Winds yet to come.

=== Military Investments ===
The list of actions a Military Investment can take are varied, but detailed here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting an Army or Fortification, Scouting the Frontline, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Military Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support an Army or Fortification are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Military to Scout the Frontline will find that they are only able to select Territories adjacent to Concordian held land. This focuses the intent of this action and provides much more substantial and meaningful results. There is no current list for applicable Territories and benefits or consequences for choosing them, however it can be expected that each Territory will be heavily impacted by Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative at play in that area. All Territories that can be chosen for Scouting are listed in the Downtime Form for ease!

==== Public Special Actions - Military ====
==== Ducal Decree - Fight Further Into Draemoor (Any Realm) ====
Thanks to the actions of Duke Wynters of Starscar, The Vaulderin Armoury still remains open to all Heroes of The Concord as a staging ground to push further into Draemoor. Champion of the King, Ser Landry Tremane, has informed those that may wish to attend that the fighting is expected to be harsh and dangerous, and that damaged Investments and Traumatic Wounds are possible for any who attend. Any Military Investment of any Realm may take this action, representing spending their time working alongside The Barrow Hounds to take aggressive and defensive actions against The Onyx Aristocracy within Draemoor.

=== Naval Investments ===
The list of actions a Naval Investment can take are just as varied as a Military, but often far more outgoing. Detailed information can be found here in the [[Investments|Investments Page]]!

In particular, Supporting a Fleet, Trade with Foreign Ports, and Paid Work are the most common of the Standard Actions. At a baseline, Naval Investments are assumed to be taking the Paid Work action, which will net a random assortment of resources, items or income!

Players wanting to Support a Fleet are encouraged to read the Military Orders page so as to have a better idea of what is going on in the wider campaign at the end of Summit. The page details the orders given by Generals and Champions, and can greatly influence what Force you might want to Support!

Players wanting to send their Naval Investment to Trade with Foreign Ports will find a list of known Ports to trade with in the Downtime Form! Some of these Ports can be found across the Wiki, with relevant trade expectations listed within the appropriate sections, however others are not. The Team is working on putting together a more succinct list for the purposes of Trade, but in the meantime Players should expect Military Orders, Winds and the greater narrative to heavily impact the result!

==== Open Foreign Ports ====
The following Foreign Ports are open to Concordian ships this season. Some are dangerous journeys and if your ship does not meet the minimum requirements for travelling there, then you risk (but are not ensured of) danger. If your ship is more than 3 tiers below what is required, it risks being destroyed entirely and your character significantly hampered or even killed. The nature of these journeys mean that ships travelling together does not necessarily improve their chances, as such tiers cannot be combined.

===== Dendarr Nations - Kameiros =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The Easternmost city of the Dendarri, Kameiros is friendly to Concordian ships and captains can expect to trade in Beastbone, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and rumours from this land of Heroes. The Golden Fleet is known to be operating in this region. In addition, the Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== The Golden Fleet - Banathea =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The pirate-port of Banathea sits empty of its vast fleet as it is busy raiding the Great Trade Sea and Explorers Sea. The Treaty of the Corsairs, between the Concord and the Golden Fleet has ended. Captains can expect to trade for Herbs, Artisan Crafts, and Potions, albeit in small numbers.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Crownsport =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

The largest port on the West of Drummond, Crownsport is ruled by House Rayleigh and is known to be the gateway to Drummond for travellers from the east. Receptive to Concordian captains, you can expect to trade in Forgesteel, Suns Iron, Hartswood, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet is known to be operating in this region. In addition, the Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Bleakstarbe =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

A far smaller port on the Cape of Karlais, south of Crownsport, Bleakstarbe is a stormwracked harbour set between dark cliffs. Ruled be the rising House Silas of Duchy Forsword, it is poorer than Crownsport but Captains are far more likely to gain a meeting with ‘The Barbed Wolf’, Duke Jeryn Silas. Captains should expect trade in Hartswood, Beastbone, Blacksap, and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet is known to be operating in this region. In addition, the Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Fealties of Drummond - Manacle Harbour =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

Northernmost port of the Fealties, Manacle Harbour rests in the turbulent seas of ‘The Arc’, an archipelago of large isles ruled as part of Duchy Artallian by House Rottmour. The growing maritime influence of the Duchy draws attention, but it remains to be seen if there is money to be made. Captains should expect to trade in Essencite, Bloodglass, Shimmering Scales and sometimes rare Drummondite arms and armour. The Golden Fleet is known to be operating in this region. In addition, the Concordian Senate is funding these expeditions with an additional Lock.

===== Free Tabbadar - Odrigan =====
''Tier Required:'' 2

Far to the west across the Great Trade Sea, to the farthest reaches of Invicta Minor rests free Odrigan. A revolutionary city founded by the Tabbadari under Concordian support. Travelling to Odrigan is a journey in charity rather than business. Captains should expect to gain little aside from stories and meagre supplies of Hartswood and Herbs.

===== The Idrian Cabal - Rakham’s Cove =====
''Tier Required:'' 3

Hidden among the iceflows far to the South, Rakham’s Cove is a trading harbour for little more than sealflesh, whale blubber, and a madman’s stories. However, if you’re lucky, you might meet some of the strange apprentices of the Idrian Cabal, those minor wizards sent on the unknowable journeys of their distant, spire-dwelling masters. Captains should expect trade in Crystal Mana, Artisan Crafts, and Beastbone.

===== The Kingdom of the Bailes - Ushal Vakkan =====
''Tier Required:'' 1

A tiny port inset along the harsh, rocky coastline of the Cape of Bailes, certainly not for the faint of heart. This is made far worse by the historic hostility of the Bailite peoples to The Concord, and their bloody reputation. Ship captains should beware. Successful trade has the likelihood of including Hartswood, Beastbone, Bloodglass, Herbs, and in especially rare cases, Thunder Oak.

==== Public Special Actions - Naval ====
==== Plunder Hukar ====
As per the Winds Entry ‘White Flags Aloft Before War begins’, an opportunity to plunder the far shores of Hukar has become available to The Concord, and as of Autumn 226 it still remains available to those that would wish to do so. The action will involve sailing to the coastal Kaludas and attempting entry to steal whatever riches and information they can find. This action is expected to have moderate danger and an unclear reward.

==== Explore The Icereach ====
As per the Winds Entry ‘And a Future for Somewhere Else’, an opportunity to set sail amongst the dangers of The Icereach Sea has become available to The Concord thanks to a warm Summer Season. The journey itself would be dangerous, with many unknowable threats, mysteries and secrets to uncover, and the reward would be unclear at best. Nonetheless, the opportunity remains, and those seeking the thrill of exploration may be interested in such an action.

=== Other Public Special actions ===
==== Gather Starmetal - Mancante Terra, The Tribelands and Mukarrem ====
As per the Winds Entry ‘In the Shadow of Distant Stars’, an opportunity to gather the remnants of fallen stars has been made available in The Concord’s West. Starmetal, as it has come to be called, is an unusual and unknown material shrouded in mystery.

==== Conviction to Assist Obregon in Matters of Water and Faith ====
Yet again, The Council of Six utilises one of its precious few Endeavours to declare a Conviction. This is not a Special Action, but a Standard Action of Congregations. The details of the Conviction are briefly listed below, but more information can be found on the Church Motions Page;

While Obregon suffers in drought and distress, The Council of Six does not ignore them. The Council declares a Conviction for Priests of The Concord to Assist the people of Obregon, their duties shared between the carrying and distribution of water from The Oasis to the City proper, and also the ministering of Faith to those feeling distraught by their circumstance. Priests are to be present for Obregon and its people, to shine a light of compassion upon a hurting city, and to assist in this crisis to ensure that at least one more soul is given the chance to prove themselves before The Spheres.
