Lord Curton's Gentlemen's Hunting Club is an invitation-only society for members of the peerage who wish to exercise their divinely-granted right to hunt whatever game they wish, including the most dangerous game. Their numbers have never been large, but then that is the price one pays for exclusivity. Good day to you!
News
- September 2008
- After wishing Uncle Zeddie a fond farewell (minus fanfare) and sharing a few drinks with him and fellow bar patrons, the Club's members have set off once more for parts as yet un-revealed.
- August 2008
- The club president, Duke D'oeuvre, and his secretary, Miss Amber "Waves of" Pain, have appeared in a recent propaganda film by Josh Clark of Team Xtreme[sic], with Miss Pain performing in a leading role. While we must deplore their furthering the "zombie" myth, we applaud their efforts to show we social reformers in a more positive light. Bravo, Team Xtreme[sic]!
History
Originally formed by Mortimer Curton and some of his closest friends and associates, the Club has continued its existence through two world wars and numerous restrictions and limitations being placed upon the practice of hunting. Specifics as to membership and activities are vague, but the club was known to meet irregularly in Malton at Curton Mansion. After the outbreak in Malton and the subsequent disappearance of Aleister Curton, no club members were known to operate in the city until the re-emergence of Duke D'oeuvre and Lord Thistlewick in the vicinity of Lockettside.
Organisation
As there is no known means of communication with the world outside Malton, and given the mysterious absence of a number of members, the current club organisation is as follows.
