       RUMORS & STORIES

       From the ruins of a far-away land, comes the sole-surviving heir to
       the throne of Vinya; Wynbrand, the Victorious.  The great village of
       Vinya was decimated by the evil Drow during their last foray into the
       light, and since then the Vinyans have sworn to fight against the Drow
       until every last Drow has been destroyed from the face of the Realm.
       Upon hearing of the Drow resurgence, Wynbrand has prepared his battle 
       gear and ridden his worthy mount, Belvedere across the breadth of the
       lands, even traversing the treacherous Foothills of Cavaran, to help  
       repel the Drow menace which threatens the entire free world.
       Beware, evil scourge!  The winds bear the scent of you destruction...

       From the sinister depths of the Obsidian Peaks, Vlaad Tolinkov's evil
       magic has crafted a devestating weapon.  This weapon comes in a variety
       of shapes and sizes, but is most frequently in the form of a 26" wand.
       This weapon will work only on Elvenfolk and the effects are terrifying.
       When used against an elf, all life energy is drained from the victim,
       turning him into a vegetable.  Concentration Camps have been set up, and
       the Drow are gathering elven prisnors, transforming them all into 
       mindless Elf Zombies, who are then enslaved by the evil Drow. 
       Whether the effect of this terrible weapon can be reversed, remains to
       be seen.  Many elves have fallen victim to this deadly weapon and many
       more will fall before the war has ended.

       Released from the firey pits of Hell, demons and devils have invaded the
       surface world of the Realm.  Apparently under the command of Vlaad
       Tolinkov, these vile creatures from the abyss have been strategically
       assuming the likenesses of high government officials and leaders of the
       Royal Army.  Some have even infiltrated the castle, itself.  Much damage
       has been caused by these imposters, and none have been caught yet.




       PLAYER MAIL

       Here is a list of players who should look for mail from me this week: 

       Eric  Player #10:   Installment #4
       Andrew Player #7:   Installment #1
       Scott Campbell      Installment #1 and character.  Real SOON!!!     
       Thomas Cox          Next Installment
       Ken Crist           Next Installment.  Real SOON!!!
       Group #13           Next Installment.  ASAP 

       Now for the little matter of ALL the players in Stoneridge.  To kill
       about 5 birds with one posting and save a whole lot of mail let's try
       this.  Everyone who is in Stoneridge (and I'll list you shortly) who
       wants to join into ONE large party, send me some mail expressing a YES
       vote.  Most of you have expressed a desire to join with other PC's so
       here is your big chance.   Characters in Stoneridge are:

              Nightshade & Chime          
	      Satar & Paragon & Hawk & Raven
	      Sayudel & Jugger

       If you were all to join forces you would have 8 members in your party.
       This is a good number to enter into the next phase of the quest.  Here
       is your Golden Opportunity to advance into the campaign.  Let me know
       as soon as possible.  If you all agree I will post the necessary mail
       addresses so you can all communicate with each other.

         KEY for Status:
	    J = Journeying        C = Combat         D = In a Dungeon
	    I = In town           T = Training       O = Out of Commission
            E = Encounter       

	    Note:  Out of Commission refers to anything which prohibits
		   character activity other than death.  This could range
		   from unconsciousness to being paralyzed or turned to stone.

		   Combinations of the codes may be used.  If a character were
		   engaged in combat within city limits (which is against the
		   law in most cities by the way), his status would look like
		   (I,C).  Full words may also be used such as Marooned, Dead,
		   or M.I.A.
