[edit] The St. Germaine Convent of Nuns
Nuns always Rock! Even on Sunday! Nuns have a good time all of the time. If it wasn't for the strict patronage of Jesus, perhaps Nuns would rock too much?!
The motherhouse of the Convent of Nuns is now in the Nimbus, a heavenly place even loftier than Paradise. Stop by for tea, biscuits and a quick bible group session. But if you're naughty, beware the ruler!
Visit our forums to join in the worship. And the naughty stuff.
[edit] Novice
The first stage within the Convent is that of Novice. This role demands a great deal of scrubbing floors, a vow of chastity, many punishments from Mother Superior's wooden ruler and at least 8 hours of praying each day. A hard life, but after an initial period, the Novice takes her vows to become a full fledged Sister.
There are currently no Novices: So this is your special chance to become a novice, girls!
[edit] Sister
The work/war-horse of the Convent. Sisters are tough. Sisters are way tougher than Ninjas. Sisters kick ass for the Lord and also have access to the convent safe. Sisters are always devout and chaste, ignoring their human emotions and desires in order to do the will of the Lord.
There are currently 20 Sisters: a swarm of bees, Ananku, Angel of Debauchery, BigSea, Ciel, Crazydiamond, Erika Archaiah, Lara Croft, Leii, Little Sister, Molly Sanders, Mother Teresa, Oaile, SarahFoo, Sister Goosader, Sister Salvation, Sygiraal, Teresa of the Faint Smile, The "Naughty" Betty Page, yukiko
[edit] Devout Sister
These Sisters are the most trusted in the Convent. They lead the Nuns in their prayer and often co-ordinate the Novices in their training. Devout Sisters have access to the Convent's offices, and have the ear of the Mother Superior.
There are currently 4 Devout Sisters: Alpher, Jenna Jameson, Katerina Hartlova, Sister Penguin
[edit] Reverend Mother
The Convent is headed by the Reverend Mothers, who rotate the role of Mother Superior on an ad hoc basis. They are directly in contact with Mother Mary and Jesus at all times. All aspects of the Convent are ultimately at their discretion.
There are currently 3 Reverend Mothers: Jolene, Mother Altena, Popsy Bubbles
Founder and Mother Superior Emeritus: Mother Altena
[edit] Convent News
April 28th: Drawn by its holy and lofty heights, the nuns leave the Convento das Althèna on Harper Island for a newly blessed motherhouse in the Nimbus.
December 17th: Refreshed in spiritual strength by a solid 12 hour prayer session, followed by 8 solid hours of sherry drinking, the Flying Nun squad burst into action with two spontaneous holy inquisitions. The first, aimed at the Can of Worms, involved several Sisters gathered at the Worms stronghold, singing Christmas carols. Their set (including everyone's favourite 'deck the halls with holy damage') was wonderful but no one bothered to open the door and donate to the poor. It was a bit naughty but the door was ajar so they sneaked in, spread decorations around the place, took a few donations for the orphans and put presents under the tree. A merry pre-christmas was had by all!
Rejoicing in the goodwill of the Nexus, the Sisters popped over to the Across stronghold to share the joy! Sister Janine (yes, the one from the videos) was turned away due to the strict dress standard. After intense negotiation by Mother Altena, it was decided that the $10 dollar bills tucked in Sister Janine's skirt would have to go; and further sherry drinking occurred. Jesus himself would have been proud to have influenced these hard working, prayer preaching, arse-kicking angels of the Lord!
December 15th: In a blink-quickly-and-you'd-miss-it act of Holy Precision, the newly unveiled Flying Nuns quickly chastise the Bringers of Death, a faction who
December 14th: Rumours are running wild in the Convent halls regarding a new "Flying Nun" strike team. The various stories are wild and imaginative (and mostly spoken in hushed tones), but all include the skybound-sisters being armed with thick wooden rulers.
August 7th: The nuns repel a foul attack by the Lords of the Underverse. Though three foul attackers fell beneath Mother Altena's unfaltering fists, two of the nuns fell to an enemy that had been hidden in the stronghold prior to its founding. How the nuns had missed the demon hiding in the kitchen dishwasher has yet to be found, but evidence points to Sister Sledge having forgotten to start the washer after putting away her breakfast dishes. The investigation continues.
August 6th: The nuns move back Poco Maquez. Again.
August 4th: A team of two dozen assassins swept down on St. Marcus Catholic School in the night. Brutally making work of the sleeping nuns, they murdered the children in front of their protector's bleeding bodies. A single tear fell from Sister Muse's unseeing eyes. A single message was scrawled across the walls, left by the cruel assassins: "I never liked math." The nuns have vowed vengeance for the loss of their stronghold. The children have since respawned and are currently throwing rocks at the attackers. Somewhere. Somehow. ... Okay, so maybe it was just the Citadel Station Redshirts and the -Avengers.
July 31st: The Convent moves back into St. Marcus Catholic School. The school children deserted the school upon hearing the word,
July 30th: The Nordic Avengers attempted to hold a historical reenactment of an authentic Viking battle. Unfortunately, the situation quickly turned bloody after an as-of-yet unidentified party slipped a firecracker into Freyr's trousers. The nuns of St. Germaine staunchly deny any involvement in this dastardly, yet oddly amusing, deed. Recriminations flew thicker than sparks from Freyr's pants, and alas, many fell during this period of confusion. Sister Rikki Jenkins stood strongly in an attempt to soothe the situation, holding the Nordic Avengers at bay for many bloody minutes, but in a shockingly out of character act, Baal of The Claw descended upon the Convent, not even bothering to don a horned helmet. Shocking though it was, Baal turned to tide against the good nuns, and Rikki Jenkins fell.
July 27th: Mother Altena decies that it's time the Nun's took a break from prayer and went on an outing. A picnic in the stronghold of the Lord of the Underverse was organised and the nuns friends in the Crystalmire Corp were invited. Tea and cake was had and a wonderful time was enjoyed by all. The Nuns were able to return to their prayers more refreshed and with a nice faction banner to decorate the Convent.
July 2nd: After an period of wandering, spreading the word (or fist) of Jesus, a new Convent is established in an apartment building in an undisclosed position. The Sisters regather to pray.
June 28th: St Marcus Catholic School attacked and Stronghold ward destroyed. The Faction banner was stolen and the sisters cast out into the streets.
May 24th: Convent Founded by Mother Altena at the St Marcus Catholic School
