JOURNEYMAN NEWSPAPER

The purpose of the Journeyman newspaper is to provide in-character (IC) information on past, present and (potentially) future events that are taking place in the game-world. Articles are written by the game staff or our players, and provide information that relates to the event plot, world news, politics, local stories or legends, advertisement of in-game products or services and stories or accounts submitted to the newspaper by the various inhabitants of the world.

 

Printed in the City of Blightfoot Ridge by the Wanderlust Press and funded by the Tutela Syndicate Bank, the Journeyman provides players with unbiased, real-life accounts of the news from across Neothera.
