Greetings Scribes. I am a drow bladesinger, known as Vesz'aun Auvryath. I come from Sshamath, the City of Dark Weavings. Shadowlord(Tsabrak Teken'ghym), someone who plays in my D&D group, introduced me to this site. So, here I am, saying "Hi!" and that the drow will conquer the Night Above!

If I happen to use a bit more flair, and a little less stealth to go about it, so be it. If drow were truly meant to skulk within the shadows, we'd not have stark white hair, now would we? Long gone are my days of creeping in the shadows and hiding in wait. Those means are for beings of a cowardly bent. We Bladesingers are risen above such dribble. So saying, it is boldly into the fray I shall go; if I should come to meet my maker, I will at least have done so with a sense of pride and dignity that your ilk will never truly understand. Now go back to hiding in your dark recesses, pathetic mewling...."~Vesz'aun Auvryath |

Hail Veszaun Auvryath! I hope that you enjoy your stay at candlekeep! And please leave all petty or racial fights aside, Candlekeep is a place for learning- every one is treated equally (But some are more equal than others  )
Sorry I couldn't resist that!
Any Enjoy your Stay!

Once upon a midnight dreary, while i pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore-
While i nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.

Greetings Vesz'aun. I almost thought you would never come! I have already managed to conert a considerable amount of people to the ways of Vhaeraun. I shall have to introduce you...... Welcome to Candlekeep, my good friend. |

| Welcome to the Candlekeep. My, we have been attracting an awful lot of drow recently. Shadowlord, mayhaps these are your brothers in serving your masked lord? |

Indeed, Deimos, I played no small part in the sudden influx of drow to Candlekeep. And yes, Vesz'aun plays in my D&D group, and he does follow Vhaeraun. I am also aware that there might be a mind-flayer coming...... If this is acceptable, of course...... He has shown more than a little interest in the Illithid cookbooks, and he's probably going to be the only one to ever gaze upon them......
(Don't worry, if he does come, he'll keep the brain devouring to a minimum, eating only things that are barely sentient.) |

Greetings to you, Veszaun Auvryath!
It is allways good with more people! As long as we don't get too many. Wouldn't want the keep to overcrowd, now. 
And Illithid comes? Goodie. Despite their disturbing habit of devouvering brain (good thing they can't devouer mine!) I actually like the folk. A Bit arrogant, though, and they have a tendency to take humans as slaves. That I do not like... but enough of this bantering.
Good day to you, Veszaun Auvryath.  |

Well met, Veszaun Auvryath and welcome ye to Candlekeep.
Now don't ye go stirring up an army for your "conquering of the Night Above"!  ....well not without thoroughly researching our tomes on Warfare and Stategies and such like 
::whispering:: That'll keep him busy and out of trouble for a long, long while, eh Scribes?! |

| Alaundo, I assure you that myself and my drow contacts would not stir up trouble without consulting the scrolls. And we don't have to read them. As soon as our illithid ally comes, he can siphon the knowledge from the scribes' heads! |

Not to be a bother with the good greetings going on here, but Vesz'aun Auvryath is a stolen concept...
Shadowlord you seem to be a ring leader in this and admitted that "ves'zaun" was/is part of your campaign..that may be so, but the orginal idea came from me and my fiance and belongs to OUR campaign started back in 2001. You did not ask permission..and it seems to me you and your friend is passing off the concept as your own. That is not right!
Our site is here:
http://www.angelfire.com/rpg/drowcampaign
You have stolen most of the concept..just ommiting his REAL picture (which he paid for in 2003,) and his obcession to my character, a Masked Traitor of Vhaeraun.
The real Vesz'aun's site can be found here:
http://www.angelfire.com/rpg/drowcampaign/veszaun.html
He has tried to sign up on this board to confront you but cannot due to some error. However I do hope the kind administor, will at least investigate matters. Since no one has replied to my earlier post yesterday.
I want to know what's going on and why you two have done this? |
Live spelled backwards is evil. Doesn't that mean that there is a measure of evil in everyone? Perhaps it was the god's hidden joke, but why are you scoffing that I admit I'm evil? At least I'm not slaughtering innocents and saying it's good and right. No matter how you look at it, it's still murder and therefore evil. Deep down, you are no better than I am. The only difference is that I may lie to others, but not to myself! ~Xull'rae Zauviir |

| I am truly sorry for taking the name of Vesz'aun Auvryath. I did not think anything would come of it. Alaundo, feel free to delete this account so that the real bladesinger may take it. I have learned my lesson, and am truly sorry to all involved.... |

| I did not know it was taken from someone else. My friend merely produced the name one day at our D&D game... I truly regret not looking into the matter further. As my friend has said, please delete his account, so that the rightful owner may take his place among us. |

Glad to see this was handled smoothly, thank you to all involved in dealing with this matter.
I hope now things can get better. It takes a lot of courage to admit that one was wrong. I commend you.
Thank you kindly. |

| Not at all. Please refer to my website, as well. I edited the bottom of the main page to give credit to all my "ex-friend" plagiarized. And I heartily welcome you to the fold of Vhaeraun. However, now is not the time to say such things..... |

I too would like to thank and commend everyone involved in clearing this situation up. Apologies have been offered and accepted on both sides of the spectrum, and I believe we can forge some new friendships out of this now.
I'd also like to thank Alaundo once more for going through all the hassle of rectifying my odd registration problems. I know it must have been a pain in the arse, much appreciated
That said, I'm off to scour the boards and see if I can manage to add anything worthwhile to this already vast font of knowledge |
"You scoff at the notion of a drow Bladesinger? My, my. How very foolish of you to believe that the Ilythiiri did not possess the secrets of the Bladesong in ages long past. A select few of us have carried a twisted rendition of the 'Song down through the generations. Now, bearing that in mind, will you wipe that ridiculous look of incredulity from your face, or must the keen edge of my blade do it for you?"

Welcome Vesz'aun
Yet another drow?! Are you sure there isnt a hole appeared somewhere in the basements, Alaundo, which leads to the Underdark?!

Yes, I think they're becoming a problem... maybe we should... do... something about it, if you get my drift...
