Because a lot of these posters have money indications i'm going to write the monetary system the forum uses.

1 Platinum = 10 gold

1 gold = 10 silver

1 silver = 10 copper

ROBYN DEL'AXLE, it read at the top. WANTED FOR MURDER AND HIGH TREASON BY THE CROWN OF ELASUNE. A REWARD OF 5000 PLATINUM IS OFFERED TO ANY THAT CAN BRING HER IN ALIVE.

It then had a portrait drawn of her, a fair likeness thanks to all of the portraits of her that had been comissioned over the years. She was a lovely lady, half-elven by the look of her, much favoring the elven side. Long silver hair framed an angular face and largish Emerald green eyes. Though there was an attempt by the artist to hide it, one couldn't help but see gentle innocence in that face.

WANTED: Azor Zenosol

Sir Zenosol has been dodging his local doctor as of late and has managed to avoid ten years worth of vaccinations. If found, please restrain and feel free to knock him unconscious (For this will make him easier to handle and tolerate, and you've got to laugh, haven't you?) or beat him (But not to the point of unrecognition.)

To locate Mr Zenosol just call out his name rather loudly in a tavern, casino, inn or theatre and the response will be almost instantaneous, guaranteed. The reward stands at 100 gold coins and a free health check-up. Remember, we must all fight virusy-wirusy diseasy-weasies!

Once found and if you want to hand him over to me, you can contact me by drawing a pentagram on the floor with charcoal, spinning around three times while yelling the following "Here me, oh here me, Harper the great. For here I have your twit to vaccinate!" then please standby.

Also, if you have any medical needs you can find me by summoning my personal secretary: Nobody.

~Jacob Harper (Doctor and one-time world overlord)

A young man in a hooded black robe walks up to the bulletin board, tearing down some older notices to put up his. It read as such.

A pale ugly creature stumbles out of the Melting Pot. It pauses, about to trudge off; and pulls out a small roll of paper from underneath a strap on its thigh. The creature unrolls it and tacks it up on the notice board.
