It's that time again - we've another Activity Check underway! Be sure to peek in and check out the requirements as soon as possible; part of the process this time around also involves Jump information. New accounts are reminded to get their profiles up promptly - these can count as your IC posts this time around.
We've also begun taking nominations and category suggestions for Corus Votes '09. Care to help us out?
November 20th/09
As a large amount of Jump planning is soon to be underway, it is crucial that you respond to the necessary threads sooner, rather than later. Anyone with a squire should check out this thread if they have not already done so, and all characters need to take a peek here. Adminny things will be done this weekend, so keep an eye out for that as well.

May war leave is now in affect. Knights on leave may post in Corus once more. Also, check the thread in the Bulletin if your character has a April or May birthday.
Let's take a moment to remember Prince Zarian, who passes into the hands of the Black God before the month of May comes to an end. It's been a long time coming - so long that, unfortunately, we are quite pleased to see him go ^.-
May he rest in peace. Or not.
He'll probably be more entertaining if he doesn't.
Highfields Situated above Prettybone, the Highfields district of Corus is neither well-off, nor badly-off. Catering to those with some money, but not enough to buy their way into one of the city's nicer areas, Highfields is a tolerable, if not completely desirable, place to live and conduct business.

Prettybone Located between Highfields and the River Olorun, this slightly upscale district of the city boasts a large marketplace and reasonably attractive, if usually cramped, living spaces.
Flash Like Prettybone, this is a slightly upscale district of the city, though it does see more in the way of marketplace scams. Best known for a large, reasonably well-kept park at its center, an unusual amount of green space for an inner-city area that is neither the Common, nor the Palace, Flash lies along the southern bank of the River Olorun, north of Unicorn and Patten, and east of the Lower City Subforums: Flash Kennel
Patten One of the city's more fashionable districts, Patten is a well-to-do area and home to various merchants and citizens of high esteem. Surrounded by Flash, the Lower City, Upmarket, and Unicorn, the district's dwellings are comfortable, and residents live with a reasonable sense of security.
Unicorn The most prestigious district in the city, Unicorn lies to the east of Patten and Upmarket, and to the south of Flash. As upscale as a citizen can get without relocating to the palace, the high-security (which over time has led to the lowest crime rate in Corus) area is as fashionable as it is pricey.
Temple District While Tortall is hardly known for it's architectural masterpieces, Corus's Temple District is one of the better-kept of the Eastern Lands, a fact that is well-known to the gods. Subforums: Mithros' Temple,
Temple of the Great Mother Goddess
The Lower City Being the poorest district in Corus has also made the Lower City the most crime-ridden in the city, and few higher-paying job opportunities make becoming well-off enough to move elsewhere a rarity. Still, to many commoners, 'The Cesspool' is home, and they make do. Subforums: The Court of the Rogue,
