>>   Saturday, May 27th, 2006, 1pm – 6pm – Mage: The Awakening
>>   Where: Renaissance Bedford Hotel
>>   44 Middlesex Tpke.
>>   Bedford, MA 01730
>>   http://marriott.com/property/propertypage/bossb?WT_Ref=mi_left
>>
>>   IC Teaser:
>>   (OOC: This invite is sent by Asha Dziko, Councilor of 
>>Manchester/Thyrsus Silver Ladder [Status 2, pending 3], to those Mages she

>>who can be trusted.)
>>
>>   Come celebrate the 10th Anniversary of Muka Ziya and the 160th 
>>Anniversary of the Manchester, NH Consilium on Saturday, May 27th, 2006. 
>>Muka Ziya has completed its renovations, and I’d like you to come and 
>>enjoy yourselves before the club reopens to the public.
>>
>>   Of course, as with any gathering this large, there are a 
>>few…suggestions:
>>
>>   #1. If you are coming in by any means other than plane, train, 
>>automobile, bicycle, your own two feet, etc., etc., please contact me at 
>>603-555-1212.* Arrangements will be made for a safe arrival. Otherwise, 
>>you’re in Lucid Discordance’s hands. And while I know some of you would 
>>enjoy that, I’d actually like to have some people actually attend the 
>>gathering.
>>
>>   #2. Please refrain from using vulgar means of accomplishing tasks 
>>without my permission or the permission of one the other Manchester 
>>notables. While Muka Ziya is known for its more sinful and debaucherous 
>>ways, I’d like to keep the scrutiny down around its normal mundane levels. 
>>You know…zealots, zoning boards, and the like. And there’s always Ms. 
>>Discordance’s tender ministrations for those who don’t like rules.
>>
>>   #3. Anyone violating the Lex Magica of Manchester will be tried and, if 
>>found guilty, punished by using the methods outlined in said document.
>>
>>   #4. Muka Ziya is a club for alternate lifestyles. Some of the décor 
>>is…dangerous, if you aren’t used to it. Please refrain from touching 
>>anything that looks sharp or otherwise possibly harmful. It probably is.
>>
>>   And, now, after all the droll and stifling items listed above, I have 
>>just one more thing to recommend:
>>   #5. Show up, enjoy some cocktails, be merry, and have fun. It is a 
>>party, after all.
>>
>>   (OOC: * = A phone number for the club. The message when you call asks 
>>for your name, Order (if applicable), Path, and method of arrival. Don’t 
>>try calling the number I gave. It’s another way of calling Information.)
>>
>>
>>
>>   Saturday, May 27th, 2006, 6pm – 7pm – Dinner Break and Auction
>>
>>   Between the hours of 6 and 7 PM, NH-002-D will be hosting a charity 
>>auction. Among the IC items to be auctioned off are two from the US NST 
>>and one from the NE RST, as well as a number of local items.
>>
>>
>>
>>   Saturday, May 27th, 2006, 7pm – 12midnight – Vampire: The Requiem
>>   Where: Renaissance Bedford Hotel
>>   44 Middlesex Tpke.
>>   Bedford, MA 01730
>>   http://marriott.com/property/propertypage/bossb?WT_Ref=mi_left
>>
>>   ST/IC Teaser:
>>
>>   Portsmouth is New Hampshire's star on the sea. This historical city has 
>>never succumbed to quaintness. With so many offerings: Spinnaker Point, 
>>Prescott Park, and North Church, for instance, one can get lost in the 
>>scenery. The streets of the Hill, Strawberry Bank, and downtown bustle 
>>with tourists and shoppers by day.
>>
>>   You don't care about any of that. You only go out at night. The nights 
>>in Portsmouth are home to a slightly different crowd. This crowd keeps up 
>>appearances, but feeds on the blood of the living.
>>
>>   Nothing quite compares with the denizens of Portsmouth's night for 
>>keeping up appearances. A picture of peace lay over the Kindred of New 
>>Hampshire. The peace only runs so deep, though. Inside this hidden 
>>collection of predators an intense pressure has been growing, not vented 
>>in over a century.
>>
>>   In recent nights, Prince Cynric St. George, his court, and subjects 
>>have faced a number of adverse situations. The supernatural incursions of 
>>ghosts and spirits have been just as trying as more physical foes. Local 
>>enemies, such as nomadic bikers and a creature some have called "draugr" 
>>are just as pressing as the opponents of Kindred at large: the Treasure, 
>>Suren-Gal, and their ilk.
>>
>>   In all of this, the Elysia of Portsmouth have remained islands of quiet 
>>on the peaceful facade of this community. They are safe havens to all that 
>>would enjoy their hospitality. Now, the invitations are out to all that 
>>would come. Dr. Thaddeus Grey, Keeper of Elysium, is opening a new club to 
>>the public. This Victorian-themed house of leisure will be bared to the 
>>public eye in the first weeks of June. Your invitation is for two weeks 
>>before the opening. A special gala evening to be enjoyed by local and 
>>visitor alike, this will be a night not to be missed.
>>
>>   Sunday, May 28th, 2006, 12noon – 6pm – Werewolf: The Forsaken
>>   Where:
>>   Forsaken will be held at the Actor's Workshop in Boston, at 327 Summer 
>>Street.
>>
>>   Directions below are taken from the Actor's Studio website 
>>(http://www.actorsworkshopboston.com/). We have the space from Noon until 
>>6PM with game on scheduled for 1PM. Forsaken will be running opposite 
>>Boston’s special Changeling game.
>>
>>   If there is difficulty please call Trish's phone at: 617-512-3958. 
>>Please puruse the directions BEFORE you leave! Most of the streets around 
>>south station are one way and it's often difficult to guide you back once 
>>you get out of the directions given!
>>
>>
>>   ST/IC Teaser:
>>   The Forsaken of New Hampshire have faced a great deal of hardship in 
>>the last few months. Their ancestral enemies, the Pure, hunted down many 
>>of the local Uratha. Their deaths were merciless and brutal, leaving 
>>little doubt as to who committed the savage act but even fewer clues as to 
>>their numbers and strengths. Only a few brave souls, recently tested in 
>>the north, had managed to escape the continuous bloody purge of their 
>>kind. Separately they had left the safety of their territory, to answer an 
>>ancient call to battle and also to escape for a time the shadowy threat of 
>>their own death. Together they had returned from their journey, hardened 
>>and scarred, but now a pack, which had been tested.
>>   Since then, little has troubled their vigil over the territory they 
>>have inherited. Spring has brought some calm to their world as life renews 
>>itself. The Spirits of the Wind and Storm are strengthened by the creation 
>>of a new pact between Uratha and their half-kin. Any sign of the Pure 
>>Tribes is absent from the trails and forests where they had hunted only 
>>weeks before. The darker and more primal spirits have retreated to their 
>>places of power, shying away from the cleansing sun and rain.
>>   The Uratha find themselves lost somehow in this peaceful interlude, 
>>wondering when this respite will end and where the danger will come from 
>>next.
>>
>>
>>   Directions:
>>   To Marblehead:
>>   The following directions take you into Salem, MA near our old game site 
>>in downtown Salem. Since I'm assuming that most of those who will be 
>>attending game on Saturday already know how to get to Salem, MA, I'm going 
>>to give the directions for getting to Marblehead via Salem, MA.
>>
>>Take 93 North to 95 North. Follow 95/128, passing the exit for Route 1. 
>>Pass the exit for 95, continuing on 128 North. Follow this to the first 
>>exit for route 114 toward Salem (exit #25 A).
>>
>>Follow this road and stay to the Left until you get to Pulaski St (there 
>>will be a gas station on your right and a wireless communications store on 
>>your left). Take a Left turn on Pulaski St. Take a Right at the next set 
>>of lights on to Gardner St. Follow this until it ends and take a Right on 
>>to Margin St.
>>
>>Margin St. becomes North St at the Salem line (there will be a cemetery on 
>>the Left). Follow North Street for a while. You will pass a bunch of 
>>houses, a 7-11, a Hess station; then follow North St. over a ramp, passing 
>>Federal St, and an Elks Lodge on your Right.
>>
>>Pass the traffic light for Essex St, and turn Right on Norman St. Pass a 
>>Dunkin Donuts on your Left and the Post Office on your Right and go 
>>through the traffic light. Norman St. becomes New Derby St. Pass a 
>>Walgreen's on your right, and a fire station on your Left.
>>
>>Turn Right at this intersection to stay on 114. Follow 114 straight into 
>>Marblehead. Continue following 114 all the way until it ends (there will 
>>be a fire station on your right when it does). The trick is to make sure 
>>you continue bearing left.
>>
>>Continue on for about a mile (give or take a few tenths), and on your 
>>right you will see an orange sign for a store that says "The Treasure 
>>Chest." We are the apartment above that. Parking is available on the 
>>street, or the back of the bank parking lot directly across the street.
>>
