Good day guildmembers. I am potentially taking on a new squire. The last one I had was many years ago. With the above in mind, I have a few questions:
1. Prior to leaving for my vacation, there was some discussion concerning systems to help with a "squire system" for our guild. Do those now exist? I have not found anything in the various folders.
2. Assuming the answer above is no (or even if the answer is yes), I would like to line up some fellow paladins to help train this squire in the following areas:
Ilithi: Would anyone be willing to spend 1 or 2 days talking about the history of Ilithi and the perceived role of a paladin in that area?
Code: Since I follow the Code to the letter, I would like to get some opposing views of the Code and why it should not be followed to the letter (this is an IC discussion and not a "gaming style" debate).
PvP: Slaris, this is a request for you. Would you mind traveling to Therengia (or somewhere close) to help train some PvP techniques and how to deal with "conflict"? I suspect this will take about a week or so spending a bit of time each day with us.
Magic: Pureblade, by chance would you be interested in discussing your training methods concerning magic?
History of Chadatru's Book: Redarch, would you mind sitting down on one occassion and discussing your grand quest to recover the Book?
Jousting: At some point, I will need to set up some training jousts as this squire would like to become a good jouster.
Now, I will obviously guide this young paladin in "my" ways (in particular the Code), but I think a well rounded "education" is the best. Also, there is just not the common gathering ground anymore for paladins to learn from other "older" paladins such as when I grew up so to speak.
Finally, this is not something that has to be done in the next week, month or months. I would like to spread this out over a considerable time period (say 6 months or so). This means that I can coordinate with each of you, make the trip to you (if you so desire) so this does not greatly impact your training or personal time in your DR endeavors.
Thanks in advance.

You are doing your homework, Madigan. Just another question to throw out to all of you.. Anyone know of any Elothean Paladins out there who are RPing as being part of the House of the Steel Dove? And anyone who wants to chat with me is certainly welcome to IM me at LadyCamria. She's in Crossing at the moment training and trying to bond with her warhorse.

My paladin is still a youngster, and due to his training of all weapon styles at 3 ranks per circle will remain so for a while yet, so if you're looking for a younger jouster to practice with (or target dummy to make a more experienced jouster feel good about themselves...) just say when and where.
Cheers.
Cheers.

Sorry, not trying to be secretive, I just dislike it when people confuse the boards (quasi-RL) with IG, which happens more than you'd think...
Just say when and where. "Madman" has always been known as a great guy to my IG experience, it would be a pleasure to help out. I'd like to be around Crossing and Haven for the lectures and demonstrations this weekend but the ride to Theren has always been nostalgic so it's no trouble to work around your schedule.
Cheers again.

Madigan,
Redarch would be more than happy to come offer what tips and training you think appropriate for your Squire. He's usually in or near Haven so should be in gweth range anytime you and your Squire are training and want to send a shout out.
