A secretive outsider paramilitary group active in and around York

Order Of Patriots
Leadership: Wouldn't you like to know?
Members: If you need to ask, you don't need to know.
Goals: Upholding the values of security and civilisation.
Recruitment policy: Don't call us, we'll call you. When you least expect it...
Contact: Yeah, right.


Rumours

York is beseiged from within. Pirates and brigands roam our streets, stealing from our people, looting our town supplies, and attacking our people at whim, whilst corrupt colonial authorities look the other way and line their own pockets. The groups who claim to protect us war and squabble amongst themselves, whilst the proud folk who built this nation live in fear and danger! As if that were not enough, our fair town has also been the target of repeat attacks by savages, who have killed a good number of our people in the past weeks. York is in peril!


Through all this, rumours have begun to circulate of a secret order of righteous men (one might say, patriots), fighting to protect the common man and preserve the integrity of our young civilisation. The first true heroes of our land, they must netherless operate secretly, to avoid certain death at the hands of the forces that seek to enslave and destroy us all.

Bounties

In keeping with our policy of fostering community initatives for a safer York, the Order has decided to offer financial support and rewards to those fighting to keep undesirables out of our town. Starting immediately, the Order is offering a bounty of 10 gold coins to anyone who kills a pirate or similar felon (see list below for details) near or in York. To claim these rewards, follow these simple steps:

1) Slay your undesirable.

2) Log the kill on the Shartak Underworld.

3) Post a bounty request either on the talk page, or by emailing Davidclements@hotmail.com with the subject "Shartak Bounty". Remember to include your name, the name of the undesirable, and a link to their profile.

4) Bounties will be distributed outside Czechy's Tavern (1W of Trader Harry's in York) [-70.368,+26.313] nightly, generally between 1800 and 1900 BST. If you are not present to collect your bounty, we will keep it until you are avaliable. (Alternatively, we may be able to deliver your bounty to a given square within the boundaries of York at around the same time. Email if you require this service).

5) Repeat!

Undesirables in York

This is a complete list of the people who we will pay bounties on:

+ Any pirate, especially those who have killed Yorkmen.

+ Any member of the Lord Paul Reefer Terror Cell, who are plotting atrocities in York.

+ Any member of the Mercenary's Guild, as they have been implicated in the recent waves of pirate violence in York.

+ Any member of the gangsterz of york or the Destruction Lords, groups dedicated to maintaining a state of violent disorder in York.

+ Due to ongoing negotiations, we are not currently offering bounties on members of the Colonial Police. However, all citizens are still encouraged to treat this group with suspicion until we have received confirmation of a firm anti-pirate stance.

A Warning

Pirates, be forewarned! The Order of Patriots will not tolerate your presence in York any longer. Know that from today onward, you stay in York and surrounding area at your own risk! Know especially that if you are a pirate known to harass Yorkmen, we will find you, and we will give you free "lessons" on how to dance the Tyburn Jig.

Great News!

Tom Failur, the 'Butcher of York', known murderer and scallywag, was executed by the Order of Patriots last night. Despite having slain over 20 yorkmen without warning or provocation, Tom was quietly removed from the CP's Most Wanted list, and has in fact been aided by them when attacked by a native nearby. Why was he not apprehended and despatched before these atrocities could happen? Clearly the time is long overdue for right-thinking citizens of York to take matters into their own hands!
