Celandra is a game in which the players take the roles of societies, rather than playing individual characters. The players will invent a society with its culture and heritage, and will guide its development and interaction with the world. Emphasis will be be placed on developing a detailed history of Celandra, along with myths and legends.

OK, I'll take over as GM. I'll get my turn in soon. Is
a week on Sunday OK to end this turn with everyone, or
is it too soon?

OK I'm going to take over the society, I had one or
two ideas since posting, but these are best handled as
in-game actions performed by the various actors. I
note that Geoff Bonn has made the Tanimbar society one
of his two choices, if he's still intrested in
playing, he's welcome to be Cormenaera, his other
choice.

Now I know what the problems with the request are,
let's just drop it.

No problem with the historical element, it's more pro-
or anti- administration or party things (regardless of
the nation(s) where the party is active), so if it is
just a well-wishing thing it shouldn't be a problem.


Are all the players still out there? I'd like them to
confirm there still there please.

At the moment I think we have the following players
(alphabetically by player display name), if your
display name or society name is wrong, please correct
it when you confirm. If your name isn't on the list
and you want to participate, please send your choice
of society and any alterations from the version on the
Qaiyore website to the list, where the exsisting
active list members will advise you on any changes
they would like.

Player Name, Player Society

Geoff Bonn, Cormenaera
Ibrahim Underwood, Kaeirean Repbulic
Joel Elfman, East Torphan aka Buerucracy
Juuso, Aixelsydan
Mellian, Razian (personally, I don't see what the
problem with this was, as long as you respect the GMs)
M. Keaton, The Eerith
