Hello all,

Could the characters currently selected post in here to show they are ready to go?

Also, if anyone else is looking for a group and I haven't got in touch with you please give me a shout now and I'll have a look. Only two or three spaces, so be quick!!

Cheers,
Dave

I'm looking for a group. I'm the process of working on more of a character background particularly pertaining to his journey to Vikarh but aside from that I'm good to go.

Hi,

@Joyfulcheese and Moridin_Nae'blis: Like you characters, you are both in!! Make sure you have your character saved on your computer to use as a reference and add extra money/items to at a later date.

@Narmo Eressea: Glad you're still around!!

One spot left!! First come, first served... (bar those I PMed a couple of weeks back)

Cheers,
Dave

Hello all!!

We have our Group 20 ready to go. So no more applicants please!! The group will consist of:

BuBonicuS
Canantra
Demendred
Joyfulcheese
Narmo Eressea
Rekok
scion of naggaroth

We will use this topic for all our OOC (Out of Character) talking. If you are away for any length of time, please post here. This way we can keep our main topic as uncluttered as possible, helping everyone focus on the action :twisted:

If anyone has any questions please post them in here or PM me directly. If you haven't done an online RPG before it might be best to wait until a couple of the other players have posted before you start, just to get an idea of what you should be doing.

One big thing is spelling. I know that English is not everyones first language (and I think it's incredible anyone can play an RPG in their second language...) but run posts through a spellchecker before posting!! My method is to write my post in Word, run the spellchecker, then read the post to ensure it makes sense. Having said that, we're all human, so the odd error does not matter.

I'd like to keep the posting rate fairly high. While you guys are sitting around chatting I'm quite happy to leave you to yourselves for a bit, as long as it's interesting. If we are in a combat situation I'd like to do a mod post every 3-4 days at least so that we can keep the action flowing.

I think that's all I have to say for now. Chat away in here as you like. The first post will be tomorrow afternoon!! I'm in the UK for time zones, by the way...

Cheers,
Dave

Ok, so what is the story with the few extra pieces of equipment myself and Demendred have from Group 12?

On another note, nice to be on your side again Demendred.

The buoyancy of water · Sun Aug 10, 2008 2:51 pm

Hi,

Keep the extra equipment. Won't give you a huge bonus I don't think. And if it does, you earnt it anyways!!

First post is going up now...

Cheers,
Dave

hi, just a quick note, could everyone please put their character stat in their signatures, it makes it much easier to track, and helps everyone else by giving an overview of your character. Thanks

This is mine:

-Character Name: Narmo Eressea
-Character Height and Weight: 1, 75 m, 65 kg
-Character Age: 120
-Other Descriptions: Raven Black hair, green eyes, dark cloak, grey robes. He carries the normal survival items used in the forests.
-Character Class: Shade
-Character Background:

Narmo was the youngest son of the house Eressea in Naggaroth. All his life he was terrorized with the old tales of the biggest threat the Druchii had known: Alith Anar, the ghost of Nagarythe, the figure which haunted Narmo´s dreams.

One day the household of Eressea was utterly destroyed when one of the Shadow Lords that Anar commanded launched an attack against his people. Even if their warriors were bolstered with an important number of Executioners from Har Ganeth, nothing could be done to avoid the massacre.

House Eressea had the tradition of sending the noble sons to be educated in the harsh life of shades and proof there their worth for the house of the elfling so narmo escaped the destruction of all he knew.

Grief and ragefilled him and swore to never give peace to the Shadow Lord for what had happened and having no living family, which in the powerplay of the druchii society made him an ideal candidate to die, he stayed with the group of shades.

There he was nearly killed when a group of beastmen attacked them, only the quick intervention of Nadhiel, a hunter of the cult of Anath Raema make him survive.

For that Narmo felt indebted to him and his goddess. Should Nadhiel ever need help Narmo would do whatever he could, even if that delayed his search for Anar. Nadhiel and Narmo had a brief relationship before departing each one in a different path, which they tried to keep in secret for gay relationships were frowned in druchii society.

Narmo wandered through Naggaroth in that process for he could not stay anywhere for a long time. He was considered too weak for the druchii society. In his heart he didn´t have the feelings of the other druchii. He didn´t want to kill, steal, or lie to obtain power and riches, he just wanted vengeance.

Anath Raema - Sister of Khaine, Goddess of the Savage Hunt. Her domain is the the joy of the chase, and the thrill of the kill. According the legend, her advances were spurned by the god Kurnous... as such, she is also worshipped as the avenging goddess of jealous lovers.

-Weapon Skill (WS): 4
-Strength (S): 2
-Toughness (T): 4
-Dexterity (D): 4
-Intelligence (I): 4

-Starting skills: Basic Stealth.

-Starting equipment: Short Sword, Repeater Crossbow, Shade Cloak.

I just meant the stat line in the signature, not the whole background, just better for ingame refence, like Cananatra and The buoyancy of water and myself have

The buoyancy of water · Mon Aug 11, 2008 10:29 am

I know what you mean, it's just some people might prefer to have wordy stuff in their sig instead. I was just giving folk an easy link to find the other characters.

You are right though, it does make things easier *cough*...

Cheers,
Dave

Cananatra · Post by **Cananatra** » Mon Aug 11, 2008 12:27 pm

Hey as mentioned in the earlier PM, I'm in ataly atm, so...my posting qill prolly be a little irregular untill saturday

Joyfulcheese · Post by **Joyfulcheese** » Tue Aug 12, 2008 8:44 pm

As some seem inclined to think it may seem I've taken a few liberties with what went on in my post. But given that the Druchii are a bunch of infighting, murderous bunch and we are in the mercenary city it's exceedingly unlikely that anyone would miss the two who died. The tube he carries with the poison has two ends, one end has the poison the other half has some simple dried herbs for adding to food. Hope I haven't taken too many liberties with him having that either. I reasoned it to myself that such herbs/poisons could be easily obtained in the wilds of the land on his travels to reach Vikarh.

But in saying that, if the post needs changed I can certainly do that.

Cananatra · Post by **Cananatra** » Tue Aug 12, 2008 8:52 pm

Its just a general rule in rpg that you can only control your own character no others (such as that pair) and only start with basic equipment so not that extra poison. I personaly dont have much of a problem with that post. I just think whats going through peoples head is what if you do it later at an important time? At the end of the day though its our mod which has the last say

Rekok · Post by **Rekok** » Tue Aug 12, 2008 9:06 pm

I think i read on the RPG rules somewhere that you can't go around killing people in the city without the city guard responding... Even though it is a mercenary city they still have laws
