The island of Daliteos is small though well situated. It guards the only exit of a large sea encompassed entirely by land. As such it is an important trading destination. Escasum boasts a decent port and a sizable government establishment that is the centre of power on the island. The city is ancient, and because of it's trade has become a haven for many of the more obscure races in the region. This multi-cultural cosmopolitan environment with a high level of sea trade has allowed Escasum to become extremely wealthy. As such it also attracts adventuring types from all over the land.

The other town on the Island of Daliteos is Mercitum. This town sits higher up in the mountains in the island's interior and supports the gold mines and logging operations that help to bolster the local economy. Much smaller though no less cosmopolitan Mercitum is a source of much wealth to the local government.

The government of the Island is a democratically elected council. Though Democracy is an odd choice as only those of noble bearing (or those who can purchase a noble title) may stand for a seat. All male property owners vote in the elections held every 5 years.
The military forces are maintained by the Nobles council through commissioning Militia from the Mercantile class. Merchants are expected to maintain a militia guard depending on their reported earnings and value from year to year and a percentage of these men serve in the council military forces on a rotational basis.
Needless to say this is fraught with problems. Corruption is rife in the higher echelons of society and many Merchants will frequently downplay their wealth and forge documents so that they need to hire less militia troops, or even use their militia in private wars.
To keep things working more smoothly the government has begun to employ local adventurers to work on small law and order tasks or even to keep the non-serving militia-men in line.

Commissions are posted at the town hall for local adventurers to apply for.

OOC: You all know one another at least vaguely. All of you can start wherever you like in the town (just make it up, it's fine - lol.).
If you want more information on the town ask in the OOC thread.

Kli'Tar approaches the comissions board, looking to make the next gold piece for her light pockets. Hard to secure stable work as good ninja. "Need an adventurer's guild I think," she says aloud to noone in particular.

Karajix would walk in his body covered in tiny leather scale mail and looked to the two much larger creatures as he had a much smaller structure and could not see anything on the board. He would have no choice but to speak and ask them "potential masters is their any jobs that one of my structure can handle on the board" he would ask them as he was used to having a person make him and his people their slaves. He killed man that was his master so that he could be free but he is sure friends of the lizard had taken his people and made them their slaves repeating the act of slavery.

You each read over the board. There seem to be a few simpler jobs, but nothing that anyone could take on their own. Everything appears requires a group.

Jobs list

A family heirloom to the Von Rackeburg family was lost during the fall of the old city and is currently lost somewhere in the ruins to the east. The current Countess Derue Von Rackenburg has offered a reward for returning it to the city chambers.
Information from the old city in the ruins to the east is of prized value by the city council. The reward shall be based on the value of the information retrieved.
An undead creature believed to be a Skeleton was spotted in the ruins to the east. 5gp reward for confirmation, 10gp for destroying it, more for information regarding it's origins.
A group of bandits, formerly slaves working for the House of Arendorf has set up their headquarters in the hills to the north. Reward is 50gp each alive, 20gp dead.
The Merchant P.M. Marnillion wishes to hire several able bodied guards to protect a transportation of cargo to Mercitum. He is willing to pay 1gp per day for the work. Cargo transport departs in 2 days.
The Merchant Esteen Vernouth wishes to hire a group of men to guard a shipment of fine cigars that have arrived. 3gp per night for 2 nights work. Payment only if all of the shipment is successfully protected.

"Well, a two for one deal seems to have presented itself. Would anyone like to join me," Kli'Tar asks aloud as she points to the two jobs listing the ruins to the east.

"Thank you, I see it just fine," Kli'tar says to the kobold. "You don't want to go to the ruins by any chance do you," she questions the small draconic creature.
