Since a lot of interesting stories seem to be coming to Skowbo, I think I will throw out a bone here to give all those imaginitive story writers out there something extra to work with. My muse has not been too helpful in the last few weeks, so I do not know if I can work with this except in bits and pieces at odd times. Rather than try to make something ongoing out of this, I will leave it in the public domain. Feel free to take this and run with it.

The Knights of Skowbo

Skowbo, the holy planet. If there was ever hallowed ground in the wild chaos of the Metaverse, it would be here. Pilgrims filter in year round to visit the sacred sites: the grand temple of CariElf, the shrines of KarmaGirl, Frogboy, T-man, and many other divinities. Most pilgrims leave, going back to whatever life they have until it is time for another pilgrimage. Then there are those who stay.

A great many of those who stay become residents of communities serving the pilgrims. They become like any citizen back on the planets of their birth: teachers, factory workers, office workers, market place vendors, a host of others. Life goes on as normal, except for being mindful of the special significance of their adopted planet and honoring the many festival days set aside for the objects of their affection.

Some citizens have special jobs. They are the facilitators, keeping the life blood of the pilgrim-based economy running smoothly: travel agents, tour ship crews, resort operators, guides, and the staff of the incredibly powerful WCARIELF radio station sending out calls to the faithful across the Metaverse, and many others. Without them, the pilgrims would not cycle smoothly through the system. There would be delays and difficulties.

But all these citizens ultimately serve to sustain the center of the whole operation: the holy sites and those who live there after having dedicated their lives to the divine powers. Monks and nuns live in and maintain the holy sites. It is a humble existance of hard work and prayer, trying to guide visitors to a better understanding of the Stardockian powers in the hopes they will leave as changed people leading a better life and spreading the faith to others. There are also reclusive orders of religious hermits that do not interact with outsiders, being totally dedicated to a journey of self-enlightenment.

It may well have been be a perfect system for a perfect place, yet the foul plots of Metaverse empires ripple across the holy planet. Secret agents and hidden agendas, mercenary bands and criminal schemes. Unwary pilgrims temporarily putting aside secular loyalties to feed their spiritual needs, but being swept into all manner of illicit dealings. The holy planet is a hotbed of unseen corruption and grand power plays that most are totally oblivious to. The fate of the Meta hinges on no one empire, but on Skowbo. The one who controls the planet controls the Meta.

A secret order, the Knights of Skowbo, have vowed to prevent any from taking control of the holy planet. They are warriors of both skill and faith. Based in an underground lair below a secluded monastary on the nearby moon Lowbo, the Knights are ever in constant battle to root out and foil these plots. Their missions take them far and wide. The fruit of corruption may hope to ripen on Skowbo, but the seeds are often planted far away. Not all Knights are openly militant crusaders. Some are agents disguised as merchants, wandering missionaries, high ranking imperial senators, and even operatives parading as unaligned overlords. When the call comes, the Knights of Skowbo will be there.

We prefer "The Secret Order of CariElf".

But apart from that, you've got the description dead on. Maybe we should get you writing tourist guides for the swampy planet.

                    
#428  by Veteran Killa Koala - 11/1/2003 6:40:16 PM

Ah, Quack. The Spymaster has it exactly. The Knights of Skowbo have an interest in the planet as a whole. Whereas The Secret Order of CariElf is CariElf's personal hitsquad.

Do you guys know there is an Angela at Stardock?
Who probably works just as hard to keep us happy.

Oh Angela sweet angela.
Pure as the driven snow.
She just works behind the scenes,
to keep those bugs in limbo.

Hehe...thanks for the poem!  Yes, it is true, there actually more women who work at Stardock.  Of course, there are only 3 full time employees who are female (damn this male dominated occupation!)  There is also Kim who manages sales.  Kim and I also work with, and support, the Object Desktop side of Stardock.

        
#433  by Veteran Theoden of Rohan - 11/3/2003 11:21:23 AM

Angela and Kim...they certainly don't sound like names of goddesses...

They need to change their names to something more appropriate. I mean, we have CariElf and KarmaGirl. Angela could be known as Angel-A and Kim could be SalesGoddessKim.



                          
#434  by Veteran Disciple777 - 11/3/2003 11:30:05 AM

Her real name is Kim-La (Ancient etruskian name for Godess of the water) and the real name for Angela is Ang-He-La (Godess of the fertility and the rain)

      
#435  by Avatar KarmaGirl - 11/6/2003 2:12:57 PM

hehe....Angela = KarmaGirl

And, I'm not a goddess, I'm a witch.  (My maiden name was "Towne".  My ancestors include Mary Este and Rebecca Nurse (whose maiden name was also "Towne"))  I may weigh the same as a duck....

And, I'm not a goddess, I'm a witch.


Pray tell, would one think the faithful be concerned if there was but a difference? All the ladies in the Stardock pantheon are goddesses to us, no matter what their true stature be. Evil seductress or fair angel, it matters little.

In this rate I think Brad will just have to undergo surgery so you guys will worship him too. Silly people.

                        
#439  by Veteran TheQuack - 11/6/2003 7:36:23 PM

CariElf the goddess, KarmaGirl the witch, and Kim the neutral lurker in the shadows - the Nemesis, if you will. Very balanced, I like it.


I may weigh the same as a duck....


I hope people aren't gonna use reverse logic to burn poor widdle ducks who weigh the same as self-confessed witches...

Damn. That's a helluva way to get more women in the industry.

I wasn't kidding. Have you taken your pills today?

Lt. Harel Eilam,

Than all YOU have to do is ATTACK! me in The G.C. PLAY HOUSE I will be MORE than HAPPY to accommodate your fancies.

THIS Temple was built for worship of the GODS and GODDESS


There will be no FIGHTING HERE.


I'M SURE the Goddess CariElf would be VERY SAD!
If such violence took place in THIS TEMPLE.


I'll just hang around at the The G.C. PLAY HOUSE
With my BACK TURNED and my EYE'S CLOSED! So you can have a NICE CLEAN SHOT WITH YOUR Tavor plasma pistols !

OH! and FEEL FREE! To attack The G.C. PLAY HOUSE with 50 anti-matter missiles
