You see Straz the Smuggler.
He appears to be a Sylvankind of the Lassaran D'ahranal.
He appears to be very young and average height. He has dark-rimmed stormy grey eyes and tanned skin. He has chin length, silky platinum hair streaked with silver. He has an angular face, a small nose and a pronounced jawline.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing some black-ora inset double leather, a black leather belt, a crystal amulet, some ripped jet black boots, some mithril alloy leg guards, some fingerless black suede gloves, a wrist sheath, some fitted black leather breeks, a silver dagger earring, a weathered leather map case, a dark leather locksmith's toolkit, a mithril ruby-eyed skull buckle, some segmented mithril alloy arm-guards, an elegant black silk gem pouch, a crossed back quiver and bow sheath, a heavy black bearskin mantle, and a black silver-trimmed tabard.

[Locksmehr River, North Dock]
The wooden dock is heavily weathered but sturdy. Several thick pilings descend into the river bottom, and the dock's planks are securely nailed to heavy wooden crossbeams secured to the pilings. On the upstream side near the shore, two of the pilings jut higher into the air, providing posts to which the ferry guide rope attaches. The dock stands considerably higher than the level of the river, although watermarks on the pilings show that the river is fickle in its choice of depth. You also see a carved wooden sign hanging from the dock railing.

Straz raises an eyebrow in your direction.

The ferry is more than halfway across the river now.

>Straz calmly says, "No...no I have not."

The ferryman leans hard on the pole, steering the drifting ferry toward the dock. The river becomes sluggish near the shore, making the job of docking much easier.

The ferryboat bumps up against the dock. Immediately the ferryman ropes the boat securely to the dock, then picks up the gangplank and lays it down between the ferry and the dock, providing a safe, firm exit.

The ferryman says, "Everybody out."
He nimbly walks up the gangplank and takes his place on the dock.

The blind ferryman reaches out and takes the silvers that you are holding, then smiles.

[Locksmehr River Ferry]
The ferryboat is a shallow draft boat with squared sides. On the upstream side, two iron rings encircle the thick guide rope that keeps the ferry on its course from dock to dock. A flat, narrow walkway is built into the downstream side. The ferryman negotiates this narrow path, planting his pole into the river's bottom, walking backward to propel the ferry forward, then lifting the pole and moving back to the prow to repeat the action. You also see a gangplank.

You focus on transmitting your thought.

The ferryman on the dock says, "Ferry leaving in about half a minute."

The ferryman on the dock exclaims, "Time to go!"

The ferryman crosses the gangplank then turns and lifts the gangplank, depositing it on the floor of the ferry. He loosens the ropes holding the ferry to the dock, then coils them quickly and places them in the boat. The ferryman picks up a long, stout wooden pole and uses it to push the ferry away from the dock, then sinks the pole deep in the water and poles the ferry out into the current.

The ferry moves steadily despite the river's best efforts to take it downstream. The ferryman works the pole tirelessly, walking up and down the ferry as he poles it toward the far shore.

The ferryman says, "Back in my day there was no ferry here. We had to swim across, in full plate armor. Upstream, both ways!"
>
The ferry slides over a section of churning water near the center of the river. Though the boat vibrates heavily, protesting in loud creaks and groans, the ferryman seems unperturbed.

The ferryman recites,
"There was an old bard name of Kyle
Who claimed that he came from the Isle
But he couldn't tell you
A thing 'bout Kharam-Dzu
So his claim was most clearly a pile."

The ferryman chuckles.
>pace
You pace back and forth.

You grumble.

The ferry, now slightly more than halfway across the river, jostles back and forth in the current but keeps approaching the dock.

She has a text tattoo on her leg.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a shiny red round button, a sitting beanbag gryphon, a composite bow, a pink poka-dotted sack, a luxurious fur-trimmed mantle, a pretty silver parrot, some feather-fringed doeskin half-boots, a fitted black leather skirt, a front-laced tawny leather bodice with blackened claws hanging from the laces, a small black fang necklace, an onyx and gold twisted wire earcuff with dangling beaded feathers, a fresh mistletoe tiara, a small bronze badge, a warped platinum star, an awesome Zilana pin, an elemental bow of fire, and a pageant satchel.

I don't understand how or why a report could have been responded to in the speedy manner that it was after you essentially killed him the second you got off of the ferry.

He didn't warn, so unless Straz is a serious GM favorite and was reporting you (for what, I don't know) on the ferry itself, your being pulled to the CL doesn't make any sense?

Yeah I don't get it either but I'm not worried. No warnings or anything like that ever heh. He got destroyed so he probably cried hard about it.

They may have wanted to verify that he's an asshole abusing the command. Now's he's got a record for doing it. It's nice to know who cries wolf.

I think it's more likely that it's just a GM playing vigilante and involving themselves in conflicts that neither side reported...Andraste used to do this often.

I believe anytime that one player character kills another, that a message is sent to all GM's on a certain "thought channel" so to speak. Perhaps the GM's are trying to be proactive and respond to whines on the BBS about no enforcement of policy.

Seemed unnecessary to me, but if you'd reacted like say...Michalangelos or whatever his name is...you'd be warned or locked out I'd guess. You really shouldn't be put in that position unless the other person INVOLVED IN THE CONFLICT actually objects and reports you.

So let's hope my guess is wrong, and that the other guy actually did report you...

Straz probably reported after he left. Since Straz's report probably put Anticor in an unfavorable light as a random murderer or whatever, the GM probably had to respond and get Anticor's side of it.

I doubt it was "GM Vigilante" justice. She was hardly giving Anticor a difficult time.

Good work!

Zilana put a send to me when I killed someone for calling me coward.

Something along the lines of:
[Send] Zilana: Leave that at the boulder

Oh well, didn't know that it was against policy to kill people when they initiate things.

I don't back down from anything when I play that character and I don't have a problem dishing it out and taking it so when this little guy decides to run his suck I promptly shut it. Had he been able to whoop my ass I still would have tried to tackle and claid him and had I failed I would have taken the beating and considered it a lesson.(more like a goal to own that kid)
