Public Renown Reports (August-September)

[Marc (Admin)]

This thread is for the posting of Public Renown Reports for August-September downtime cycle.

Note: If backdated items are submitted, please be sure to indicate such, to help the staff (and your fellow players) differentiate them from the current month's items.

Please do: Be as descriptive as possible.  Renown is a direct reflection/result of the tales told in the nation.  This is a very public thing, hence this public forum in which to post reports.

Please don't: Engage in additional IC (or OOC) conversations within this thread.  If another character is saying things about you that you do not like, start a thread somewhere appropriate and take it up with them IC ("so I hear you've been saying stuff about me...")  This thread is not the place to do that!

"The Rules" for this thread:

[-1-] Ahroun, Philodox and Theurge may post one item of particular note to the public report.

[-2-] Galliards and Ragabash may post two items to the public report.  Those holding the position of eldest Galliard or Ragabash may post up to three items.

[-3-] All other items of Renown worthiness may be included in your downtime report as normal.

Anyone not comfortable with the public thread may forgo it altogether and submit only a private report (via your downtime sheet).  Just remember, items appearing in the public reports will be given more weight than the privately submitted items.  Renown is a very public thing!

One of the most important things in combat is awareness.  Knowing who or what you're fighting is good, but it doesn't stop there.  Noticing the little things, like what bits of terrain someone could be hiding behind, is also important.  Keeping track of the big things, like why you're fighting this fight, or why it's fighting you, is even more important.

Recently a lot of us got drawn to a particular location for a fight with more Banes than I could see through.  It was alluringly simple - Banes bad, kill Banes, act Gloriously - and very much following what the Litany commands us to do.  It was also a distraction, and only one of us figured out what was really going on.

Geraldo Castillo saw what was going on and put it all together even when fur was flying everywhere, and the world has one less Black Spiral Dancer because of his insight.  He wasn't even there when the Spiral died, but I place the responsibility for this Athro Theurge's death squarely on Jerry's shoulders.  The next time he points something out in the heat of battle, I recommend listening to his Wisdom.
