Weakness, Inherant in its Protectors

Does anyone not find it awefully odd that an Infernal Knight who rants
and raves about protecting the weak and innocent, is a very credible
character, despite the scroll on infernals clearly stating "The
Infernals are a blend of fighting, discipline, and necromantic magic.
With their skills of Necromancy, Chivalry, and Forging, they are
well-equipped to purge the weak and helpless from the land, or make them
serve their needs."

This is just a representation of how abhorently used the esteem system
is. But we already know about that.

I find it insulting, however, when Fortenrus rants and raves about all
this, and how he is also backed up by the Infernal GM. Not publicly no,
but when I inquired why a secretary of the infernals is spouting
nonsence purging evil and not taking part in slaying the weak, she
states that no, its not an Infernal thing, per say, but rather an Order
event. And then I retaliate with, is not hunting killing weak things so
you can eat it? I just got an answer on how the infernal helpfile is
supposed to be changed.

I also find it insulting that when I call the man "paladin", as by the
Gods, that's what he is trying to immitate (and I mean no insult to my
brothers and sisters in Shallam who are paladins, by associating them
with that scum), he threatens my life. He does so as he sits in Shallam,
mocking Shallam and insulting Shallam. As a Shallamite, I find this
offensive.

He then rants on and on, instigating fights with not only The Black
Hand, but Xzato Mirari as well. Both parties are well beyond his combat
abilities, and could rape and plunder him like the newb he is. Know that
I consider all of Mirari to be my children, regardless of their true
mothers and fathers, and that I take affront on their behalf. Xzato can
more then defend himself against the Peon Fortenrus, and that I express
only my support in Xzato's public attacks on Fortenrus.

Maybe a couple of you will get your heads out of your arse and de-esteem
this pathetic excuse of an infernal knight. The guild is getting weak
when its weakest secretaries publicly state their intentions to protect
the weak and innocent, and receiving only rewards in return.

Many of the laws of the infernals have been broken by most of their
members, and that honor is no longer a thing of the present. The guild
has been long ago decaying, and it saddens me to see this. I am very
fond of the few members who do uphold the honor and the rp that's behind
the Infernal guild, but they must feel the same sadness I do, as they've
long been slumbering. An ancient glory that remains ancient.

I pardon myself for such a long and rambling note. I must say that age
is not agreeing with me, and my mind is becomming a bit rusty. I would
just like to reinforce this:

Fortenrus is a shameless braggart. A newbie armed with a mere bow, and
no real knowledge on how to use it, would be able to dispatch him.

The bastard's a hypocrite too, while being in shallam and insulting its
most glorifying confines while sitting his infernal arse in it. He
expresses loathing for paladins, the tradtional knights of good,
benevolence, and mercy, when he publicly announces remorse for an
organization that wants to kill weak and pathetic creatures. (Albeit,
the Black Hand wants to kill 'rogue' vampires...I'm not quite sure
Mephiston and others would qualify as weak. Certainly Fortenrus himself
would not be able to kill him. Fortenrus' point is moot, making him an
even greater idiot.)

Fortenrus has been behaving like an idiot for decades and been getting
away with it. Not only getting away with it, but being rewarded for his
idiocy. He is like Sapience's most public fool, to capper before the
people and receive paper gold in return. But are you people not yet
tired with his tiresome tirades, repetitive tricks, and distasteful
behaviour?

I'm done ranting. If I ever see Fortenrus' again, I am hoping that it is
the Underking announcing that he has been slain.
