Inter-regional RP event!
by Mzeusia

Lazarus has reached out to Caer Sidi, another regional whose members also enjoy RPing as well as other activities. In the never-ending quest to bring new ideas to Lazarenes, an inter-regional RP event is being currently planned that will be held on Discord. It shall last roughly week, is open to members of both regions, and will take place aboard a space station. Role Playing as different crew aboard the space ship, you will navigate through the challenges of space, with the major challenge being a mysterious infection. If this premise interests you, or you have any questions, let me know. The last details are still being worked out, as some things depend on the amount of interest, so if you are interested but read this issue later, still get in touch with Mzeusia via your preferred method.

An Opinion Peace about Lazarus[/nation]
by Mzeusia

Since I, Mzeusia, arrived in Lazarus a year and a quarter ago, I've had a great time. I really like the region. For a while, I was happy to RP and talk on the RMB. When a new government position was created, the Developer, I decided to run. Getting elected, I began putting on various events. You might recognise some of them, like the Banner Library and although the events got some traction, they didn't get as much as I was hoping for. A few months later, the position of Director Internal Management was open. I wanted the position, was appointed, and was thrilled.

Throughout my term in the internal department, I've come to change my expectations about Lazarus and what success means for the region. When I first came, I expected lots of activity due to the number of people in Lazarus. Over time, I came to understand that the activity wasn't as forth coming as I had hoped. That disappointed me, but now I don't see it that way. At the end of the day, the happiness of Lazarenes is paramount, and after conducting a poll, it seems that the majority of you are very happy to be here. There might not be a flood of awards to get, weekly competitions or dance=offs every Thursday, but those things aren't needed for success if people are already happy. Of course, I would be more than willing to consider events or ideas people suggest, and I will continue to find events I think people will find interesting, but a quieter, more peaceful tone is nothing bad.

So, have a great day, reach out if you have any comments, and the best of luck to you in your endeavours!

    Lonely Hearts:

    • Justin is a Ryccian man of 31 and, apart from his job as an office worker, has generally isolated himself from society to focus on his investing in Digital Silver, a Ryccian cryptocurrency. He researches the currency to such a detail that he is able to make educated gambles on its sale. As a result, he is secretly wealthy, but this is not known to his colleagues, who see him as an oddball. He wishes for a woman who shares his passion for investing and thus further their shared love (and money). He is thinking of purchasing a bigger house, but remains uncertain if he can sustain his wealth obtained through investing.

    • Laenia Kalnilia is a young woman of 24 and describes herself as "A beautiful perfect plum of a woman, who “has no pit but hasn’t been pitted” if you know what she means (The writers of the Lonely-Hearts Section don’t). She has plum goodness through, through and through! Her heart is crying out for "someone to stand aside me with a good sense of fruity humour like myself and who will help me explore my fruity depths with a passion and determination known only to the most liberal of plums and satsumas most easily peeled. They also need to be okay with the cold as I love me some fruit-topped ice-cream while relaxing on a beach!" She has included an image of a plum and a peeled satsuma laying on what looks like a bed of strawberry ice-cream. She does provide a physical description, however. Daneria is 4ft 10 and has strawberry-blonde, waist length hair. She says she gave the forms to her dog after realising they were “not fruit-oriented enough” for her “juicy style”. That is the extent of the physical description we have.

    • Describing himself as a “man of culture who doesn’t like bassoons and believes that the end times are near” Mr Lint, a Mzeusian man who declined to give his first name is looking for a man to spend these last few moments on Earth with. As a 31 year old devout follower of Mzeusism, he feels that the world will be destroyed by a great monster not even the Gods will be able to combat. “Not wanting to die fighting,” he “needs a partner who is open to alternative ideas and ready to join the new world order that shall inevitably and with great force, rise from the caves below the ground and consume the planet.”

      His other interests include taxidermy, reading ancient texts, planting tomato seeds and battling the rats he allows into his home. His physical appearance is that of a “Short, fat, green eyed, blonde-haired individual,” although the picture he supplied did not match this. We would not recommend making contact with this person, but in the interest of providing a wide variety of dating selections, we have published his application.
