RP notes: How to contact the Candle Alliance
Posted: Thu Dec 21, 2006 5:58 pm
If I determine the enemy's disposition of forces while I have no perceptible form, I can concentrate my forces while the enemy is fragmented. The pinnacle of military deployment approaches the formless: if it is formless, then even the deepest spy cannot discern it nor the wise make plans against it.
Sun Tzu, "The Art of War".
From an RP perspective, the Candle Alliance has no guild hall, no fortress, no guards and no servants (unlike our foes in the Dark Citadel, or Qu'Ellar Kultar). This prevents us from being located and attacked. Instead different members meet irregularly at various locations in Norrath to coordinate local strategies in pursuit of common goals. Some members of the Alliance have arranged for various "safe houses".
The Alliance communicates with our members and allies either via direct contact with one of its agents (i.e. a player character) or via messages delivered by the League of Antonican Bards to one if its members. The Alliance also makes use of predetermined, hidden or anonymous locations to leave messages. In these, magical precautions are used to determine who leaves a message, and whether it is safe to retrieve them.
