*Hands Mallet the sacred Staff of Duncehoo- erm, I mean Domination* But her name is Aerona; I wouldn't be so certain, still, she is Dantrag's character. Although it does seem a little wrong to make out with someone who is several decades (or centuries) older than you, not to mention Aerona still hasn't gotten over vampirism yet.
Which reminds me, does she perfer Sadril in terms of talking to? Aerona's hardly spoken to Ian at all, and left when he tried to help her, but she stops to talk to Sadril who embarrased her in front of everyone when he kissed her hand..... Ian hasn't done anything to or for her. ![]()
btw, http://chorrol.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3779. And yes, I know Athyn is a lot older than Serene and they married and had three kids, still it wouldn't be something I'd do.....
Well, in a PM (which I deleted recently) you sent to me about the Redoran, you mentioned Serene and Athyn having two children, a boy and a girl, and neither were named Brianna. You said they'd be teenagers, at least, by the time of the Nirm Conflict.
Since I deleted the PM, I don't know their names, but the girl wasn't Brianna, I remember that much.
I had trouble with my connection yesterday, so I accidently made two identical posts. Sorry about that.
How should the battle with Ian and Mannimarco end?
And, what about Karn going to see Astratus
I don't think Mannimarco should die yet, he should die fighting Ian in a battle that takes place in the city, once the huge siege is on, so you can have part one of it here, then the Silhouette shows up, Ian runs back to the city, and then when they meet during battle, Ian takes out Mannimarco.
Just a reminder to people about my current internet problem. My posting time is limited to work, so Wednesday and Thursday don't expect me to post. On Friday we're supposed to have a technician come in a fix our problem (supposedly we need something called a "dry loop" due to our new phone service). So by Friday afternoon I should be able to resume my normal frequent postings. Though since I get to post at work, you'll hardly notice that I'm not as present as much as I'm usually here.
So, Amrita is the only woman who hasn't dedicated herself to someone, romantically or otherwise. Seeing as she's only with Veric because she wants more power Veric doesn't apply. If only Brianna gave her charming, murderess daughter a hug, that would solve so many porblems.
Yeah, I felt like saying something silly and amusing. But maybe they should try that anyway, a little mother-daughter bonding period ever killed anyone.
That's sooooooo-devil's advocate, sorry, goes on for a long time-ooo cruel! That's her daughter, why doesn't Brianna just disown her and crush every illusion someone might have that they'll ever like each other! ![]()
Edit: Since Ian doesn't think highly of Brianna at the moment, not enough for him to bring up, mind you, and since he's tried (and failed at times) in the past to help the youth of the group. Ian, the paternal vampire-father that he is, may take it upon himself to talk to Brianna's wrongfully estranged (as he might see it) daughter.
I have also noticed that Sadril had problems with Brianna's lack of sympathy for Amrita (and all that implies), what is it with that murderess and vampire men? (that was a joke, btw.)
I think Brianna met Amrita sometimes during her stay with Telina..and certainly didn´t like her!
Now she only have eyes for Rahvin!
Well, it's still morning (say, 0930) but I think Amrita will have problems using shadows after awhile seeing as they'll be kind of scarce. If Ian knew what Brianna wants to do (with Rahvin), he'd quite furious because of what she isn't doing.
From his point of view being a parent has little to do with giving birth to children, so since that's all Brianna's done for Rann, Satyana, and especially Amrita he doesn't consider her a rightful parent. And his view of her could rapibly shift from inept to irresponsible (which is what it's leaning toward).
Perhaps this should lead to an argument somewhere down the road. The vampire holds nothing against Rahvin, he actually raised Rann. Nor against Serene (quite the opposite), or (with the exception of all the other things she's done or going to do) Salina for the same reasons.
The third person he'll help hunt down for other reasons.
minque, Rann's mad at them because he now knows about the conspiracy against Altair.
I PMed her already, sorry.
I forgive you, Revan.
This time.
Basically, you're forgiving me for being quicker to the draw...... Oh well, I'm grateful anyway! ![]()
PS: My Birthday is onthe 16th of April
Ok..now forgive an old lady here but why does that annoy Rann?
Altair is Rann's "friend" and so it's like a back-stab that his sister is plotting against one of the figures he trusts.
It seems that Minque's characters have at least one person (in the group) who doesn't like them, at the moment. That's surprising, given that they are the few who don't like to hurt people....
Ok, I probably misphrased it. Ian doesn't agree with Brianna (particularly on the subject of family and parentage), and Rann doesn't agree with Satyana, Issac, or Ian on their plotting against Altair behind his (Rann's) back.
What would happen if Cerpin got taken?
Edit: Nevermind, I'll go with Kirana. Payback is more personal that way, and I already have a plot about how Mannimarco will be beaten.
PS: Shame on me, but I just have this urge to have an evil fifth character. Side-hopper Karn doesn't count, if this isn't okay, tell me now before I go through the trouble of typing out the honored user's bio...... Btw, Dantrag, you had a werewolf character who suddenly dissappeared. What happened to him?
Are there any problems with me having a fifth character? An alien, in fact?
An alien?
Eh, yeah, if you've read my story Revan (I doubt it, personally) it takes place just as the Oblivion Crisis winds down. While there have been no connections, it isn't too much of a stretch for one left-behind reptilian extraterrestrial make its way into Black Marsh where it could be mistaken for some of the Marsh's many wierd and dangerous fauna. (It's been nineteen years since that time)
In which case it could have been located by the Sil as its forces marched through Argonia. No, this creature doesn't have special powers, well, except one non-uber ability. Nor does it still have any weapons it might have used.
All it has that aren't from Nirm, or a part of its body, is the battle armor (just really strong, spell resistant alloy) minus a helmet. Mostly, he's just uber-melee, no magic or ranged weapons.
Edit: Don't worry, he can die sometime during the final battle. Altair could slay him to further increase his fame for all I care about this cold-blooded butcher.
I just thought that the 'planets' in the elder scrolls universe were both the gods (divines) and their respective realms, not planets as we would think of them. I could be wrong, though.
Heck, people used to think the sun orbited the Earth, and we were the center of all existance. But these creatures are from very far away (a much more raw, dark place).
I think you´re right Danny! Anyway the thought of an alien appearing in Tamriel doesn´t really go with me, unless he will be from very, very far away...hmmm but I am not fond of any modern weaponry or so..it just doesn´t fit in! Now that´s me of course...but nevertheless....
Another thing; I´m going on vacation early tomorrow and I do not see any chance to be online until evening the 18th, so...ehhh I would very much appreciate if you, Danny would consider dragging Satyana along! I know there is some kind of quarrel arising between her and Rann, whatever that would lead to, I beg you to decide, most things are ok with me except of course if Rann should want to kill her!
I will make a ...hmm kind of opening-post in the dialogue between Rahvin and Brianna....it may sound "graphic" but I promise that most of it will be up to the reader to interpret!
Anyway I would appreciate if that part of the story will be a bit slow when I´m away....I´d rather like to take active part of it! So please no fast forward there ok?
That was all for now...
you should probably have revan drag Satyana along, as I don't see Rann and Satyana being on speaking terms for some time.
Alright, I'll do my best. The Alien only has the "modern" battle armor and nothing more. (Even if he had a gun, he'd have used up all the ammo anyway, he's been in seclusion for nineteen years) But he uses (large and brutal) Tamrielic melee weapons and fights with such ferocity that he simply play the role of the Silhouete's "nightmarish monsterous minion."
Monster would describe the alien very well..... Can I at least write his stats before we decide?
i am infinitely sorry. my family has run into a bit of financial trouble and i have lost internet access as well as several other ports of entertainment. i am working on getting a crappy dial-up connection working but i can offer no estimate of time. again i apologize.
i leave the control of my two characters up to the most qualified among those who would like to claim them.
ok...Revie...post his stats, then we´ll see! Could be fun with some kind of monstrosity! ![]()
Aww Shogun! That is bad! i´m sorry for you and your family. I hope you´ll sort it out somehow though!
Shogun, if you can read this, good luck man!
Revan, the idea of a foreign entity sounds cool to me, no guns tho', major buzzkill, like playing age of empires with the "howdoyouturnthisthingon" cheat
Well I shouldn't have anymore problems with internet for this month, once I move to my college residence, if I don't have a laptop yet it might be a couple of days before I'm able to post since I'll be busy trying to get said laptop.
I'm also sorry to hear about your financial problems Shogun. Hopefully things work out quickly for you; my family had to deal with that a few years ago and fortunately we got over the hump. So I hope the same things happens for you and your family.
I am so glad that there are decent human beings in the world...
Will the alien fight in the city or does he have his own agenda?
Right now, he'll fight for the Silhouete. But I think I'll have him appear in the next battle..... what if I gave Cerpin the alien's body as a last resort measure to stop it?
Is Astratus going to die, or should the sorceress call for assistance from her comrades?
Not intending him to die.... thought it seems like a tought situation...
Let's see if any of the heroes decide to help, if not, maybe Astratus will die...
Whether Amrita sees it this way, Issac was just politely (with some sarcasm) dismissing her former comment, aside from have a friendly verbal jabbing match with her, that's as far as he'll go with her.
So, can you clarify when Kirana gets freewill, and all the minor details, Priest?
Mannimarco was going for the, look at my power, macho display... he's going to give Kirana a limit on her choices and actions, basically working like this...
if Kirana feels emotion, Mannimarco is alerted, if Kirana makes major muscle movement, Mannimarco is alerted. Kirana basically can walk and talk and look and move by herself without Mannimarco, in essence, it is a limited freewill, (oxymoron)
Well, I'll wait for some people to move about a bit before Ian and Kirana meet up...... Yes, they have been fond of each other in the past, it could or couldn't be considered love. I trust Mannimarco didn't tell her all of the spells he placed upon her physical body, but she will be wary of what he might have placed upon her.
And let me assure you. there are differences between Argonians, snakemen, and Plys'Iea warriors. Perhaps at some point the warrior will shed his armor to exploit an opportunity that presents itself during the fighting.
At that point he'll be very tough but killable and Altair can heroically banish him...... or make it look like it and find some way to have the cold-blooded warrior help him after he's become "emperor."
Oh trust me, Mannimarco thinks Plys'Iea warriors are argonians, and it might be fun to watch counter measures for argonians fail against the Plys'Iea...
What kind of counter-measures? I just want to know, it will be funny, he might get cross-eyed!
Yeah, the alien has something better than eyes in the back of his head, he's got spines out the back of his back!....... That sounds wierd, but amusing at the same time. Anyway, nothing can sneak up on the Plys'Iea, unless there was a lot of motion all around (like rain fore instance).
Im back from vacation, sorry for not informing you guys! I was busy up until we left and wasn't on the computer the day before leaving.
Don't worry, Florodine, we forgive you for not telling us you'd be away...... No unnecessary misfortune will befall Dalrus or the Silhoeute..... or that one knight character, or whot's-his-face.
Oh, I don't know, maybe the Silhouette could tell Mannimarco something
Green-Root can show up anywhere in the sewers, and Vasha's group are with him as well.
Why so slow?
I'm probably part (large) of problem, I'll have all of my characters moved up in the afternoon. I'm not sure if Florodine saw your last post, but I PMed him/her about it...... also FOH left before it could be read.
Btw, a lot of fog is rolling over the Imperial City. Just a weather update for you guys.
I'm planning for the "interaction" between Ian and Kirana to end abruptly when Ian attempts to tear Kirana's soul gem from the corpse, not knowing that Mannimarco can recall it back to himself. Does this work with you, POS?
What Mannimarco is trying to do is to get at Issac, who killed his "mother",
Mannimarco has seen the group, he even killed Soldin and froze Issac, so Mannimarco knows they are close. He decided to attack the young target, A: for killing Kirana, resulting in Mannimarco's death, and B: Because Issac is young and apparently at a loss for the killing of his maternal.
Ian can kill Kirana, but Mannimarco will send another copy back, and keep sending her until he dies...
Psychological warfare....
Well I think I'm done for tonight. I need some sleep.
Alright, so I guess this Alien versus Tamrielics will have to continue in the (later) morning. Issac and Satyana will probably notice the bad situation just as the Silhouette has begun conquering the Talos Plaza. Now, this is a little early for the Plys'Iea to be slain, so maybe the fight will end as the Silhoutte appears and the Tamrielics retreat (maybe with one or two people injured.....it would be perferably for them to be severely so).
It's kind of a change from how hardly any of the group has gotten injured to a severe degree...... Except for Soldin and Kirana getting killed by TKOW, Karn getting smoked by Fervus, Ian getting bitten by werewolves and slashed through the back by other vampires, Issac getting frozen (not really an injury, I know), Dalrus and Satyana during their captivity experiences, Astratus getting bitten by a zombie, Patholos being cursed by Sithis and beaten by Dark Brotherhood renmants, and am I missing anything?.......
Most of these incidents seem to involve my characters, so I must be missing some....... or have most of the others been relatively unharmed during these last few months of fighting?
Flint broke an arm but that is all I can remember. Bloody coward never sticks around long enough to get hurt.
Green-Root took a scar to the snout during his first encounter with Flint and Flogir, then later on he got messed up by a Golden Saint and nearly died. He still has a bit of a limp while on land as a result of that.
But yeah, we're missing injuries with some.
Alright then, I guess the spellcasters won't be spiriting the group away then...... Oh well, they can just dish out their own apocalypse before fleeing.
Edit: It's fine for you to control Vasha and her group as well as Green-Root, Cloudy.
As for the wounding, I volunteer Flint. He is one of the older people, has almost run out of Magicka, is probably growing tired and the most important reason of all.....
He threw his swords away so he can't fight back effectively. I originally planned to make him catch them after tossing the flin, but I kinda forgot. Oh well, I'll just play along with my mistakes. ![]()
Moving on to the point Vasha, I want to ask you something, Revan. Will the Narza'tai continue guarding the sewer entrances, or will they move to guard the....how do you call those metal caps on the street that cover the sewers? Portholes? Anyway, will they move to guard the portholes instead? I personally think that would be the wiser approach now. With the outer district in control, no Silhouette critter is going to take a swim.
I would like to have Vasha's group conduct some nighttime raids later on. Sneak out of the sewer, kill whoever happens to be near, slink back before an alarm is raised, repeat all around the Silhouette-controlled part of the city.
I can have the Silhouette injure Flint, if you volunteer him, but then they should make a counter attack that calls the Silhouette elsewhere, that way I don't kill Flint.
Well, certain key points have been sealed off or are unhealthy to pass through. So the Narza'Tai are concentrated in the eastern and central sewer passages. Most of the manholes (as I know them) that are accessable to the Narza'Tai sections are within the districts still held by the Morrowind Army.
Ano one of the more prominant forms of travel (teleportation) means that the defenders can simply seal all the interances necessary with debris and dead bodies that they won't use themselves. They are more devoted to protecting the passageways than entrances, the lack of light giving them advantages over intruders lacking night eye or proper illumination.
But Vasha's group along with a few other can go marauding at night. Perhaps running into some form of trouble after a few adventures when a few misc. enemies predict their coming.
Ok, a nighttime raid it is.
About the Silhouette beating up Flint, whose going to save him? Even if the Sil is called away, Flint is still beset by a horde of Goblins. Or maybe Flint makes it through the gates to the uncontrolled districts before they are closed but somehow he draws the Sil's attention. But then we have to deal with the Sil being in a controlled area.
Ah well, I'll just give it a start and then sleep on it.
I'm off to bed. First day of class tomorrow.
Well, I may as well be off then. I totally forgot that in the states you guys start in August. Have fun!
Here is the latest from the priest
Gave Mannimarco power he didn't have before, don't worry, not godmodded, just stronger to last a bit longer in fighting.
Patholos, subjected by the horrors of his past, has fallen prey to the Necromancer King. He will have to fight his own demons and the resurrection of the Dark Brotherhood to overcome.
Astratus, seemingly beset by the onslaught of the Silhouette, will concentrate defenses and position troops strategically.
A few dangling threads for the Priest to Solve...
A) Prater, prolly will have him join the attack and lead the ashes of the Dark Brotherhood
The matter of the Dark Brotherhood, a few soldiers in the MA will prolly join, along with one or two disenters from the Narza'Tai who still think killing is fun.
C) Good ol' Patholos, got new eyes, weapon is still being worked on, prolly have him work with Karn to eliminate the Dark Brotherhood, maybe have a war-within-a-war between Dark Brotherhood and Narza'Tai to make things climactic
D) Mannimarco's power, Silhouette will still be able to defeat Mannimarco, but not as easily, I see it as a better and more efficient understanding of magic, not anymore magicka or deadly spells, but more of what to use and effeciency
All in all, had to catch up and let Revan use Ian again, sorry, and possibly Kirana, also sorry, just post anything that should be fixed.
I bet Dantrag thinking right now is "Dang! Why didn't Ian free Cerpin during that battle!?"
Hehe!
No, more like, "Dang! School started!"
Uhhh....so much happened!
Still, Satyana is with Issac, that´s good, but what about Brianna and Rahvin? They are....in a room at Tiber Septim....ehhh..doing things!
And I do hope they will be able to continue...doing those things!
Hmm....I have no idea how to hop in again...have to think hard....
Minque, I really, really doubt they won't be disturbed by the bandits and goblins in Talos Plaza.
That said, It's great to have you back!
Talos Plaza was taken by the Silhoutte's army, so Bree and Rahvin are in enemy territory now.....
Hmm...I guess you´re right about that...anyway then they will have to either find a way out of it or get help... ![]()
It´s good to be back,
Heh, I love a sneaky scene. Want some help from Vasha and her sneaky gang? They know a few ways out of the sewers. Maybe you can escape through the toilet. (It stinks, I know. But seriously, I'd rather jump down a dung-filled hole than get torn to shreds by all those baddies outside.)
Oh, and does anyone know where Flint has been teleported to?
I took some minor liberties with Satyana, she is currently offering to heal Rann's ribs, deapite the misgivings between them
Well, if one thing can be said with absolute certainty about Rann, he can hold a grudge if he wants to.
It would seem difficult for a guy like him to have lots of friends (or keep them). Well, I don't think Issac (or Satyana) are going to give up on him..... No matter how much of a royal pain in the british boat he is.
Going to have Mannimarco repel the alien, wouldn't do good to be killed so soon... (Maniacle Laugh)
Sending Astratus to fight closer to the Silhouette, what's going to happen?
Patholos is going to recommend precision strikes against specialist troops. Karn can agree or disagree.
I'm off for the night once more. Gotta go to work early in da mornings!
Aren't the undead supposed to be fighting the Silhouette's forces right now? Mannimarco has his own side now, and since the undead are basically mixed with the Silhouette's forces right now, they're bound to be fighting those in their immediate vincinty rather than trying to breach the walls, no?
they are, but since Mannimarco had to retreat, they can't be rising on their own accord. So Im just having them mop up the remaining undead and burning the bodies.
I find myself fantasizing Karn walking up to Altair in the presense of the entire group and revealing him as Veric. It will eliminate a lot of frustration on part of myself and my characters....... who are basically being ridiculed for not trusting the blasted politico in their midst.
but then the entire plan for the plot would be ruined.
Isn't he already going to have to reveal his true identity to Rann? I hope Issac will be around for a smug comment, but I doubt it. Anyway, it will relieve a lot of stress when Veric is revealed..... so much frustration.
I am going to have the Silhouette take the temple district and green emperor way. That way the city is cut in half. Then the huge battle happens when they break into Green Emperor Way. That will be the final part. Then Mannimarco and Veric can fight the Silhouette. Then the Silhouette will have to fight two on one, and when he sees his army crumble he dissappears.
Even if Karn tried to reveal Altair as Veric, I'm sure the others like Rann, Amrita, Voltar, and perhaps Aerona would not believe him. The fact that he once was trying to kill them should prove to show that the group shouldn't trust him. Basically I think the arguments Amrita told Issac would be enough to sway those not wholly set out to expose Altair.
And in answer to the random post in the playground (that I think was meant for this thread) Rahvin never saw Veric change. In fact, he only just recently discovered that Sadril worked for Veric.
And I bet Flogir and Flint would be on Rann's side, being that they suspect Green-Root.
Yeah, my bad on that....... Anyway, I still have Green-Root, Tenek (he'll show up.... I'll make sure of it), and the Narza'Tai on my character's side. I don't know if Amrita will be able to lead Satyana astray. But ultimately my characters will have a shining moment when everyone realizes that Altair/Veric isn't so great...... I doubt they'll get to be smug at that momnet, but it just helps me (and them) sleep at night.
I have this big urge to make Green-Root brag to Flint about Altair being a yellow-eye Breton in disguise, seeing as how the whole enmity between the two was because of Altair. I mean, it would be something Root would do but Flint isn't that stupid either. He's had a Veric-obsession for the last twenty years now and only the recent crisis with the Silhouette has pushed it to the background of his mind. He would realize that not even the Argonian could imagine something like that so he would instantly turn camps.
If Flint does that though, he can't be one of the people who get under the emperor's vow and under Veric's thumb later.
Should Green-Root tell or not?
*Obsessive screeching* Do it, do it!!!! *Normal voice* Yeah, let's let it happen. Karn can even tell how Veric sent him after the group after Satyana escaped.
Still, isn't Veric going to have his rise after the siege ends? We can just have that the people who know don't find the appropriate time to try and convince those who don't. Besides, aside from Flint, the entire anti-Veric/Altair party isn't that credible in the eyes of Rann, Aerona, and (maybe) Dalrus.
Now that everyone's cooped up in the city, I don't see how there will be much peace where people can have an undisturbed argument while three-no-four armies are fighting (not four-way, but there are two forces against two with no-discrimination policies).
From what I remember, only Karn (and Voltar, Sadril(what's he been up to?), and Amrita) truly knows that Veric is Altair. Somehow Karn managed to convince Ian (I'm still a bit confused as to why he believes him) which indirectly convinced Issac and possibly Satyana due to their trust in Ian. Oh yea, and Karn managed to convince Green-Root as well, but only on the fact that Altair isn't to be trusted right (due to him seeing Voltar with two "different" people)?
That's about right, so only Karn knows that Altair's real name is Veric, but it wouldn't be very difficult for him to tell the others who know Altair can't be trusted. Shogun said that anyone who feels able should take over his characters, btw.
Yes, but my concern is why believe Karn, a person who until the siege started to happen was willingly trying to murder them? To me, it doesn't make sense to believe him just because he's right. His character traits up till now would not inspire much trust. Sure, he showed Ian that amulet, but did Ian try to use it to find out who he was communicating with on the other line? For all he knows, it could've been a hunk of junk basically.
Like, I know it's interesting to have this "Altair is Veric" conspiracy among some of the characters, but I feel that some characters were convinced a little too easily.
Well, both Ian and Karn have fought each other for more than twenty years, they know how the other thinks. Ian knows that Karn has changed from a simple murderer to a more thoughtful leader-figure since he took the riens of the Narza'Tai.
Ian has never trusted Altair, who he knows has something to hide. So the vampire agent firmly believes that Karn is telling the truth because thye both know the status quo has changed. As agents, Ian and Issac seek to perserve the existance of civilized life, they know the Empire needs a strong foundation if it is to recover.
Likewise, Karn and the Narza'Tai want the new governemnt to be strong for the same reasons. Both former combatants acknowledge that their goals are one and the same now that the storm is coming (literally and metaphorically).
Ian and Issac's "far-sightedness" and suspicions lead them to believe that Altair/Veric is not the kind of leader the people need to lead them in recovery. The way agents are taught means they must exploit every opportunity to accomplish a desirable outcome.
In a (philosophical) wierd way, Ian and Karn don't have as much of a problem working side by side being that they know (and can read) each other better than most of the other characters.
also, if people do not trust someone just by a vibe they get, they don't care who they hear it from, they will believe anything bad said about someone.
Dalrus does not like Altair, however, she does not think he is evil, she just thinks he is a political person who wants to become popular. I want to get her a little more involved in the plot. Anyway I can do that?
Agents also performs tasks that can be considered decietful and sneaky, they're basically like spys and assume false identities and whatnot. You'd think that Ian would be the last person to believe Karn because they've been mortal enemies for so long, that his "changes" is simply a ploy to try to further some sort of goal Karn seeks. But that's just me.
You do provide some valid points, as it does seem that Karn has changed due to his leadership role. But the fact that Ian and Karn plan to kill one another even after this situation is dealt with leads me to believe that they would try to stay apart from one another as much as possible or watch each others' backs just so that they get the privilege of killing their long despised opponent instead of some zombie/creature.
And perhaps the termanology of "when this is over" can extend the wait until their fight when they realize that Altair actually will seize power. So instead of having their fight after the war, they have it at the end of the RP..... I still haven't decided who will die, so maybe it would be best for them to postpone their grudge.
Hehe, I guess that's the good thing about RPs: you can change stuff on the fly.
Unless something contradictory was in a locked down thread.... then its pretty much written in stone. Unless a Moderator or Admin can edit those posts.
Btw, what exactly is Green-Root getting at, Cloudy? Just to clarify.
Basically, Green-Root wants someone else to spill the beans, someone Flint won't just ignore 'because I don't trust you'.
The way things are, a completely unknown person saying the right words has a hundred times better chance at convincing Flint than Root.
If Flint is convinced, he might spread the word.
Of course, even with a convinced Flint it won't help much. Just look at the Issac+Sathyana disaster.
Tell me about it......
Let's just call Rann's decisions rash and risky at times and leave it at that. Dalrus did apologize for what she said in the council chamber and blamed her father's bias for her anti-democratic views before she was captured.
True. But since she listens to good sense a little more than Rann, I don't see her putting up with it for a long period of time.
But also, she isn't my character so I don't know for sure.
I don't remember Patholos ever giving where Astratus was, so even if Rann chose a sewer entrance near the commander, he'll be noticed by the Narza'Tai shortly after he gets down there.
It's not that they know that Arastus is there, but that it's the only way to pass into different districts without passing through large battles, and they know Arastus was fighting on the other side.
If going through the sewers though, you're bound to run into some Narza'tai, perhaps even Flint.
(Hmm, that could prevent Kalsh from spilling the beans on the Veric scenario. Rann comes by and decides to drag Flint along.)
Ok...sorry for not being online for a few days but...that´s life!
Anyway....what is Amrita up to regarding Satyana? And also would it be ok if she side with Issac in the battle?...I mean nobody else care abot her so!
I´d like her to get hurt....really bad, so bad that maybe even Rann will forget his agony against her and will come to her aid.....
(jeez I don´t know how to get them to talk again..maybe he would feel sorry for her if she´s hurt...she´s his damn sister after all!
)
Throw a wagon at the Sil, that usually works.
Ehm, in a more serious tone. I don't know how Rann will react if Sathyana gets hurt. Probably it depends on how she gets hurt in the first place. Sure, he'll worry about her, but will he forgive her for all the stuff he blames her on? From what I've seen so far, unlikely.
I wouldn't be surprised if he finds a way to blame Issac for her injuries which would only serve to further the gap between those two.
Great, Issac existance must spawn all of the problems in Rann's world..... Is this gap going to remain until the end of the RP where everything is supposed resolved (by Veric getting sent to Oblivion)? That seems like a common thing to happen in some stories.
maybe it won't end at all...
What? Like everyone gets invulnerable and the finall battle never ends? I'm pretty sure that we won't be able to keep this up for a single decade, Dantrag!
Basically what Amrita is telling Satyana is that she'll attempt to break the rift between Satyana and Rann if Satyana conceeds that rumours about Altair is false and that he can be trusted. Basically, since Issac doesn't appear to be budging from his position on the situation, Amrita is giving the option to side with either Rann or Issac.
Oh..heck!
No matter what Satyana does, there will be.....trouble! Don´t expect her to choose between Issac and Rann! That would be more than cruel...
Anyway she will join Issac now.... And about starting to trust Altair? Hmm.....not likely, because she has great confidence in Ian and Issac....but we´ll see, she might consider telling Amrita what she wants to hear...
I remember that Satyana was the first to worry about Altair, sensing his "evilness." Issac just didn't like the politician, but when they started talking, he reevaluated his position.
Yup I remember....but Satyana can play along if she likes!..
Anyway I just posted Satyana throwing a sweet spell.....
This is a response to Revan's OOC:
Sure, they were the first ones fighting the battle, and sure the soldiers would appreciate their help, but neither of them appear to be "people persons". They weren't issuing commands to the soldiers; they weren't keeping their hopes up by offering hopeful words. Technically, to me it just seemed like they were fighting off by themselves, it just so happens that there were soldiers nearby.
Florodine: Did you mean The Black Horse Courior?
Metal Mallet: It seems to me that inspirational speeches are only half of being a hero, they inspired Atratus, who made a (short) speech to his men, and sent them out to help. While everyone might not know them, I'd think they're a little reassured to have people on their side capable of leading a charge if anything......
Other than holding their own in the two-to-hundreds battle long enough for the army to arrive and get a victory, Ian's also saved Astratus' life in front of his men and fought alongside them against Mannimarco's undead when he took over their dead comrades....... You want Ian and Karn to start making speechs?
I think his point was that they're both loners with great combat skill; a great asset to be sure, but battle skill doesn't equate to leadership. But it's really up to the characters, not us, and my character will push for Flogir, but it doesn't necessarily mean he'll succeed. (as a matter of fact, it probably means that he won't because not many people respect Rann's opinions.)
Alright, one last point though-
That's true for Ian, but Karn's been forced to swiftly become one. He convinced the Dark Brotherhood assassins at Deep Scorn Hollow to forsake Sithis and forge a new beginning. Since, then he hasn't made speeches, but he tends to lead by example.
It could be pointed out that no sneak attacks by the Silhoutte's forces from underground prove his effectiveness in stratagy.
Yea, but then again, one could argue that Karn is only good at leading assassins since he knows and understands the trade. He knows how the former Dark Brotherhood assassins would react to certain orders. One could argue about what understanding Karn has dealing with soldiers?
But yes, in essence it appears that Astratus will be choosing who will take over the leadership, so basically it depends on how he reacts to the viewpoints provided by Ian, Karn, and Rann.
Which leads me to mention that Flogir was one of the people Astratus sought out specifically in order to help out the troops and build morale.
To answer MM's OOC:
Yeah, I'm positive that the Vomica Cruor (if it was one, and the context heavily implies so) is a touch-only spell. The touch-only was probably the only balancing factor in the spell's uberness. (but can it take down Flame Atronachs? I dunno)
That said, Telina used it earlier, like back in THIH 1. Back then, didn't we get into a discussion that ended with Minque saying that she would simply alter her version of the spell? Maybe the new VC, after plenty of practice on Serene's part, has been turned into a ranged spell. (Don't ask me what she would practice on though, considering her generally pacifistic nature.) Say, it was Serene who taught Sathyana the VC, right?
Doesn't really matter though. With all the demi-gods, infinite undead/goblins/werewolves and what else running around, I doubt even a ranged Vomica Cruor is going to tip the balance too far.
Dammit, I really must get Flint a new weapon. He's so screwed in a fight. He still hasn't got Dragonskin or a full supply of Magicka back and he is without swords.
(Disregard anything that follows. It's just my megalomaniacal split-personality.
I will not lose! I must follow! From this day forth, the Groyth Heyat no longer takes the caster's life when used!
(Regular personality takes effect.)
Scratch that. It would own Tharn and his whole army of demons in a single cast. That does not make fun writing. Hmm, I should however make an intermediary version between the uberized 'wipe out the army of monsters in one shot while leaving innocent civilians caught in the blast-radius unharmed' Groyth Heyat and the rather humble regular Heyat.
*runs off to take notes.*
About th VC-spell, Serene´s version, used first in AMU, then ih THiH 1....
This spell, in it´s current version, is used by the women of Serene´s bloodline. To obtain that very cruel, lethal effect of burning from the inside, you have to be related to those women one way or another. Don´t misunderstand me, any skilled mage can learn how to cast it, but the ultimate effect is only achieved if you´re related to Serene´s line. That is an old curse, from very far back.
So Serene taught Brianna when she was very young, before she went off to Skyrim and Jadier. She then taught Satyana during her childhood in Ald´ruhn. Fact is, Amrita should have the ability to learn it fully...if given the opportunity!!
In this version, when you cast it, a faint bluish cloud emerge from your hands and hit the target withiut it noticing...until the lethal internal fire starts!!
The other spell, which you were talking about may be the very nasty "Protruding Finger", a kind of variety of VC, that is you point at and touch your target with your finger, preferrably to the head, which causes the utmost pain...inside! Serene used it on Konrad in AMU and nearly drove him insane!
Anyway, now when Satyana used it and hit that werewolf, it should cause her to suffer, because she doesnt like killing, not even a beast like that! Unless.....something threatens Issac....or Ran!!
Yo, does the house with the hoarded medication have a toilet? If so, I volunteer my squad (Ok, Vasha's and whoever wants to come) to enter.
Requirements for operation: Enter through the toilet and please, ignore the smell.
1: A map that allows the Narza'tai to know exactly which toilet to climb up through. It's best to minimize the search and get more time to sneak away with the loot.
2: People not afraid of the smell.
3: People who can fight, in case there is some opposition inside
4: People who don't fight and instead throw the stuff down the toilet. Fighters will hold of any local baddies. The split into two groups is to minimize time. Every extra second will lead to more risk.
5: People waiting below the toilet to catch the stuff.
6: pillows below the toilet incase the catchers don't catch.
7: I dunno, a bard performing Mission Impossible on his lute?
I like the style of entry, but I was thinking more along the lines of the hoarding in the basement...
Like US. circa 1984 during the Red Scare.
Also, this could be successful or it could fail. Either way, it would affect everyone...
So then maybe we should dig a tunnel? That would take time if stealth is an issue. If it isn't, we could let a mage blow it up. Which would open a large entrance into the sewers, something the Narza'tai cannot afford.
So I stick by the toilet plan. Once in the building, we can always run down the stairs to the basement.
Or wait, do you mean the basement entrance is outside the building? As in, on the streets? That would be a problem. If that's the case, I propose flying Breton with ballistic Magicka shield. Jump in, crash through the door down the stairs, grab whatever can be grabbed, launch back out.
Toilets?
Dang, someone needs to lock the old playground.
I accidently mistook it for the planning thread.
Green Emporer Way is exclusively the grounds for the place and the graveyard for the Septim Line. So, maybe the stock should be in a tomb
also...everyone is in Green Emperor Way, so why would there be opposition? The Silhouette's army hasn't broken in yet.
So, when's Satyana going to reply to Issac? Minque?
Well the inn isn't destroyed, but in the middle of enemy territory, and a prime target for pilaging bandits and maruaders.
Why not get your character to correct her then?
The point still stands, Rahvin and Brianna could be dead, and the group can't use the Tiber Septim, it's gone to them.
Hmmm....I would hate to see them dead like that! I think Brianna must use her skills to get them out of there, it just has to be a cellar or something, in which they could hide... Point is...Satyana thinks they´re dead!
Well it appears that the arrival of school has once again slowed this RP down to a sail's pace. I have a feeling we'll now only be busy on the weekends. Ohwell.
this is just unusually slow. I don't know why nobody's posting.
I'm just glad I was the last person to post. (meaning none of you can blame me! muahahaha)
I'll have Karn and Ian go there seperate eays, but Patholos needs to make his move.
Oh heck..I know I have been absent a lot lately but I´ve been working onver 13 hours a day....not much strength left in the evenings then.....
I want to try and post Brianna.......hmmm
While some are turning into wherewolves, others are discussing leadership, one is taking charge, two are trying to escape a Silhouette-infested district and two others are trying to get into the same district, Flint is going to forge himself a new weapon.
I've already got a plan but I want to run it by you first.
Aleatoire (French for random.):
Type: Staff
Materials: varied
visual: Long, smooth, no ornamentation. Looks rather plain if it wasn’t for the fact that it reflects light in just about all the colours of the rainbow.
Durability: Between glass and Ebony. More due to being flexible than being really tough. It bends with the blows so to speak.
Effectiveness as a weapon: Low damage but long reach. Also quite light so fast motions are possible.
Enchantments: Standard Flint-style Telekinetic bolts. But due to lingering enchantments from some of the weapons used in its construction, the Aleatoire sometimes behaves completely unpredictable. Possible reactions go from wimping out to over the top destruction. I suggest rolling a die each time I post Flint using it. I’m sure I can find one somewhere.
First roll:
1: Random reaction, roll a second time.
2: Normal, staff works as advertised.
3: Normal, staff works as advertised.
4: Normal, staff works as advertised.
5: Normal, staff works as advertised.
6: Random reaction, roll a second time.
(So 2 out of 6 times the staff goes weird. Or in other words, 33% chance at funny stuff.)
Second roll:
1: Wimps out and jumps out of Flint’s hands.
2: Wimps out, heals target and fortifies its strength temporarily. (Ok, unless you’re gambling, I do not suggest using this staff as a healing tool. It’s too risky.)
3: Big flash of light. Blinds anyone stupid enough to have his/her/its eyes open. This includes Flint.
4: Projects a dome of dispel within five metres for a single moment. (Just long enough to wipe out any magical effects occurring at that time.)
5: Streams of lightning pour from the staff. Flint gets hit as well. (ouch.)
6: Really big explosion. Very similar to Fervus’ old staff. (Ya know, the one that wiped out the Valus mountain.)
Too weak, too uber? Think some other effects work better? Feel free to comment. I think the high levels are a bit too much and might need some tinkering.
Well, the alien is set to be killed be Altair, but perhaps he won't be completely dead before some mysterious character sees fit to make him dissappear.....
And I've also heard that the Silhoutte won't be slain, but will vanish after most of his army is vanquished. So, any prospect that the sorceror is gone will merely be an illusion......
what to do about Patholos and Rann,
Rann can't die, cause Mannimarco needs him alive, Patholos wants to kill Rann, so...what is going down?
I dunno.
maybe someone else can intervene?
One of the Narza'Tai spellweavers?
Or else Green-Root.
Maybe both? Green-Root tells Patholos he shouldn't do it cause Rann is more valuable to them alive than dead. (Due to his link to Altair/Veric. If Rann is alive, the Narza'tai can use him to keep an eye on the Breton.) He'll tell Patholos to choose between his personal cause or the cause of the Narza'tai. I'll have Vasha agree. (Though she'll agree only because she considers Rann a possible threat to Patholos and decides to play along with Green-Root's 'bluff'.)
While that is going on, Sathyana can knock Patholos down with a simple non-lethal spell or something. Or she could simply drag Rann out of there. While you have the chance, Minque. Feel free to try to talk some sense into Rann. He's picking more fights than he can handle.
As for Aleatoire, Ok, I'll make it act crazy whenever it works in the plot. As for the effects, I'll remove 4, 5 and 6. Here are the replacements.
4: Turn undead in a five metre radius for a moment. Just long enough to make all freeze in their movements for a split second. (except high-level like vampires, Liches and Mannimarco. They simply shrug it off.)
5: Burden on self. Simply put, Flint will have to drop the staff and make sure it doesn't fall on his toes.
6: Everything nearby (2 metres maximum.) get's thrown into the air. Heavy stuff won't move much. Lighter stuff like Flint, will leap like one floor up.
This better?
Problem is Rann´s in the sewers and Satyana is too far away....being with Issac! But I have another idea...Brianna and Rahvin are off into those underground dwellings and as his mom I´m sure she "feels" he´s in danger...Now what if she and Rahvin happens to descend not very far from where Rann is with Patholos..unseen naturally and then Brianna cast a spell that will knock Patholos down..not harming him of course but interrupting that situation...
Oh and Rahvin will also be present..hmm Rannie saved by the bell....by his parents
Sounds good. I'll send over Root. Or better, let's wait till the Priest agreed himself.
I think it would make more sense to have someone that's close by stop it. Like Ian or Karn. They've got to leave the sewers too, and they can't be far behind.
Besides, stopping the fight isn't going to make Rann more friendly towards anyone. If anything, he'll be mad that they stopped him.
That young man is incredible! I never met someone like him! What the h*** will make him friendly to anyone???? Doesn´t he have the most common sense in him? Like not being hostile to the two women that love him the most?
I just give up! Thank god Rahvin isn´t like that....
Ian moved to the Talos Plaza, but Karn is still in the sewers. If he does find Rann and Patholos, he'll watch for awhile to see if it resolves itself (which it won't).
Then he'll intervene, but perhaps he won't be the first to jump in, Brianna and Rahvin, or Green-Root and Vasha can arrive just before Karn reveals himself.
I am fine with whatever happens, Patholos will adjust accordingly, he is rather rabid right now, however, so that might be a problem with the people who decide to deal with him.
Mannimarco is going to attack the Silhouette...
If I remember correctly, I've just been having Altair follow Voltar along, so that means he's just chilling out in the Green Emperor Way close by they found Eurod injured.
I call dibs on Sadril!!!!! (JK.)
On a more serious note, who is going to control the side-hopping Dunmeri vampire? I already have characters with those traits.
You got enough characters to deal with!
Let Jack have em if he wants to. Or maybe someone else interested for that part. I know I'm not interested. (mainly because my schedule is going to get a busier soon; might only have early mornings or late evenings and weekends to post).
nobody needs to take over sadril; he's not really vital to the story right now.
I'd rather let him sit things out as well for now. Apart from not having kept track of his location, I don't think I could do him justice anyway.
On another note, how are we going to fight this particular battle between Flogir and his troops against the zombies? What is the Plys'Iea going to do?
He was tracking Mannimarco down by following the trail of spectacular spells, but Priest apparently has taken no notice.
The Priest notices, just not fast enough....
So..weekend´s coming on and I think I´ll get a pretty good opportunity to be online for quite some time, due to hubby and son are going away and the other two family-members will certainly not interfere with me...
Now I´m not sure how to proceed with the RP-ladies, Bree and Tyana....I´d sort of like them to take more active part in the fighting, not that I want them dead or so but ....I mean both of them know a bit of "fancy spells" , so if someone wants a big fat burning, they can be of assistance.
The so called "main plot" about the siblings has sort of come out of focus....
yeah, but it'll be more in focus once the Silhouette's no issue. And now that I think about it, I think I'm supposed to reply to your Brianna post.
And Florodine, I was thinking that maybe Altair could use Dalrus' band of mages.
How so?
Just in the battle against the Silhouette. He could work with Dalrus to figure out where and how to use them in the fight.
Ha...I wonder why Amrita is struggling to get Rann to "forgive" Satyana? What´s it in it for her ?(Amrita) And most of all...what is she up to?
Well if she manages to get Rann to forgive Satyana, that would hopefully build more trust between the sisters which would hopefully result in Satyana forgetting all about this "Altair is a shapeshifter" conspiracy theory.
Also, I just thought about the Altair and Dalrus' mages thing. Consider this.
Altair somehow brainwashes the mages he is given. He can then go all out on the Silhouette without having to worry about holding back to hide his true power. (Hold back too much, and he wouldn't get anywhere.)
Later on, he can simply claim that it was all the result of some funky 'combination spell' or something. Naturally, the brainwashed mages will confirm whatever excuse he uses.
Result, he 'kills' the Sil, everyone is happy and in awe of him, his rise to power is much easier now and no one suspects a thing. Well, no one except the ones who are already convinced he's Veric.
Well she wants Satyana to forget about it because Amrita works for Veric, and it would be in Veric's best interest for this conspiracy to end.
The Plys'Iea will also die, but perhaps a couple of Deadra might attempt to use him as a tool to...... well, knowing Deadra we all have a clue. Anyway, he gets reincarnated for a short time to do the bidding of whoever decides to use him as an instrument.
Danny, yeah he can meet with them and then Dalrus finds out he is good at magic and starts to support him like Rann does. Then they try to find a way to fight the Silhouette. And then Dalrus and Altair both fight the Silhouette.
A few quick questions before I post. I know the Silhouette has the Talos Plaza, and Mannimacro has the Temple, but which of the heroes, if any, is still in the Imperial City? Also... crud... I had something else in mind when I started this post... blast it. Meh, if it comes back to me I'll ask.
Wouldn't it be interesting to have Mannimaro, fight with Dalrus and the mages against the Silhouette, not allied, but agreed not to attack each other... or something along those lines,
I am not wanting Astratus to turn, but, if the group doesn't find the antidotes...
Patholos will meltdown and possibly face off against Karn for something sort of an epic...
Yeah Dalrus and her group can agree to that. Sorry I haven't posted for some time, I really have been extremely busy. Tomorrow I will make a big post explaining what has been happening with Dalrus and the Sil.
I am going to have Dalrus and the mages group be successful and Dalrus become pretty influential.
hey, metal mallet, it was the actual siegemaster's idea, not flint's. Flint just included him in his post.
Well whatever. Flogir is allowed to make mistakes!
im sorry but im still working on getting internet back... so no rp for me yet.. i hope all is well... i dont have time to read any.
Mallet, I know you're in college and have less time than you used to, but it's been two days and I don't want to have a one-sided conversation with Flogir. I'm just getting a bit impatient, sorry.
So I understand that Aerona can sort of eat some herbs which will give her nourishment? Hmmm maybe Brianna could help her out? She´s got all sorts of herbs with her. She and Rahvin are out of the sewers now but I am not sure where they´re heading.
Aerona healed Satyana..but I´m not so sure where they are either. I don´t know how I shall proceed...I´d like Brianna to meet with Aerona....now does Rahvin know the vamp? Gotta speed this up a bit!
You´re right Revie....so few ppl left in the RP!
Um, I made a character for this RP but was then caught up with other things and didn't quite manage to catch the beggining of the mod. Is it still possible to join at this late of a stage? I hope you haven't gotten too far so as not to be able to find an old Nord on the side of the road and take him in.
On the road? Well, no, but he could either appear from the masses of anonymous NPCs in the Imperial City, or be introduced after Veric rises to power.
Well, I didn't mean on the road literally. He has a cottage somewhere in the wilderness but nobody said he couldn't come round the Imperial City for a random visit. So, can you give me a low-down on what's been happening? This Veric is the bad guy right?
Well, I guess I'll just give you the real quick lowdown. Just current situation and factions, not all the tidbits the characters have been doing. (Most of which your character probably wouldn't know about anyway.)
Veric is a baddie in the rp, but at the moment he is undercover and only a select few even know he is around. His current identity is that of Altair, an Altmer who dreams of turning the Empire into a republic. Most people consider him pure good (excluding those who know his true identity).
The current situation is quite grim. A huge army is laying siege on the Imperial city and despite having held off several assaults, the good guys are still heavily outnumbered and probably won't last long. Ok, that is the situation. I'm not as good at writing these things as some others are.
Factions:
Silhouette: Some mysterious being hidden behind a cloak. At the moment, it is laying siege on the Imperial city. At its command are countless troops, including lots of Akaviri snakepeople, goblins, vampires (I think, or did mannimarco get the vamps?), Orcs, bandits, one badass alien and general unpleasant stuff.
PCs: The Silhouette and the Plys'iea (alien badass.)
The Alliance: This faction consists of the Morrowind army, a Bruman army and most good guys. It is under the joint command of Flogir and Altair. Most good guys fight with the army, but they don't follow orders as the NPCs do.
PCs: Flogir, Altair, Voltar, Rann, Rahvin, Brianna, Sathyana, Eurod, Astratus, Aerona, Flint, anyone I missed.
Narza'Thai: This is what's left of the Dark Brotherhood. They've reformed under Karn as a force whose only purpose is maintaining the strenght of the Empire. At the moment, they are in effect part of the alliance, but they have their own chain of command. Their main base is somewhere in the sewers, which have become the exclusive territory of the Tai. They are also in yet another alliance with Ian, the 'trash can'. The Narza'tai is also fortunate enough to have its leader know the truth about Altair, which will keep them outside the man's corrupting influence.
PCs: Karn, Patholos, Green-Root, Ian and his souls (unofficial alliance.)
Veric's faction: This one is a small part of the Alliance. It consists of a whopping two PCs and zero NPCs. The goal of this faction is to get Altair on the throne by gaining everyone's trust.
PCs: Altair, Voltar.
Mannimarco's faction: Once part of the Silhouette's army, Mannimarco smelled greater glory and went rogue, taking a crapload of zombies with him. (And pulling more out of the ground when his current supply runs dry.) Mannimarco's goals are unclear to me, but he has managed to change the war into a three-sided free for all.
PCs: Mannimarco.
You missed Amrita on the faction of alliance and Veric, Jack. Yes, Mannimarco helped the Morrowind Soldiers take out the lesser vampires of the Silhoutte (I believe there are a couple of generals out there). And Ian is a trash can of disembodied souls (well, with Cerpin free, that's no longer true).
I'll elaborate on my characters and the prophecy about Veric and the three grandchildren of Serene. Serene's daughter, Brainna, gave birth to triplets (from three different fathers, wierd but possible). These children are prophesized to (in one version) destroy Veric, an uber-powerful Breton mage (who has learned to shapeshift, hence his guise as an Altmer).
Using Altair as a mask, Veric intends to become the new leader of Tamriel (as Cloudy pointed out). The three children: Satyana, Rann, and Amrita are the key to Verics demise (or ascension). Rann doesn't know Veric is Altair, whom he supports despite the characters who know the politician's identity.
Amrita is a follower of Veric, the only one of the three that knows who Veric is and works for him anyway. Brianna believes her estranged daughter (Amrita was kidnapped at birth by Telina's sister and raised by the witch) is not capable of good, and for all intents and purposes, she is, unless someone can cause her to turn away from power, which is very unlikely.
The only one of three that Veric doesn't have the slightest influence over is Satyana, who is one of those who believes Altair is more than a simple politician, but doesn't know just how bad the truth is.
A simplified list of characters-
Good-
Issac
Satyana
Brianna
Rahvin
Flogir (Joint-Leader of the Alliance, former Kvatch Guard)
Kirana (her imprisoned soul)
Flint (Old veteran hero from the first RP)
Dalrus (Satyana's long-time best friend)
Dark Good (or nuetral)-
Rann (partially under Verics influence)
Ian
Karn (both my characters, they don't hold to "good" as an assertion, but for the "absolute" good. They'll do whatever is necessary to make sure Tamriel recovers, even if it means burning the corrupt or weak pieces.)
Patholos (Karn's second in command, he can be vengeful and unstable at times, but is entirely loyal to the Narza'Tai.)
Sadril (Hero-Villain, he serves whatever side to maintain "The Balance of Good and Evil.")
Cerpin (he kills because he likes to, he isn't interested in Veric's cause, nor is he a good-goody, but he currently is helping Ian in the vampire's personal crusade against Mannimarco.)
Evil-
Veric/Altair
Voltar (as Veric's willing assistant and fellow seeker of power)
Amrita (Lusts for power, unlikely to be converted)
Mannimarco (King of Worms, one of, in not the, most ancient villains in the history of Tamriel)
Foreign Entities-
The Silhoutte (The head of the Akaviri forces invading Tamriel, an immortal conquerer. He doesn't feel nor appreciate many emotions.)
The Plys'Iea Warrior (Like the Silhoutte, this alien is the last remnant of his kind on Nirm presently. He doesn't pursue the concepts of good and evil, instead his is driven by the honor system that many of his kind hold to in which one must fight to survive and gain recognition. He is the Silhoutte's greatest soldier at the moment.)
The RP takes place 20 years after the first, and 19 years after Oblivion. For more in-depth description of teh characters, go to the character thread (you probably already know that, but I'm just saying it). Issac, Ian, Karn (all the Narza'Tai), Kirana, and the Plys'Iea are all my characters btw.
Minque has Brianna and Satyana
Dantrag has Rahvin, Rann, Cerpin, and Veric/Altair
Priest of Sithis (POS) has Patholos, Mannimarco, and all of Mannimarco's followers
Jack Cloudy has Green-Root, Vasha and her Narza'tai assassins, and Flint
Tellie has Telina (has been silent for sometime)
Metal Mallet controls Flogir, Amrita, and Voltar
(I'm not counting Tenek because he's hardly ever on, meaning he's on whenever I'm right beside him at the keyboard).
Ok, so if my character wants to join the defense force in the Imperial City, who should he talk to? I mean, he cant's just randomly come up to Flogir and say "I want to fight", can he?
Hopefully Telina will be back in buisness.
I see that Metal controls Amrita now, so he can continue doing that, Now me I've got a lot of cathing up to do.
As I said in that unlocked previous planning thread....Telina, mind you, leave Bree and Rahvin alone now, they just found out they love each other! Be kind please!
Oh and Amrita used to be yours but Mallie is handling her pretty well, so...maybe Tel should just meet with Satyana, she´s a good girl, but she can "see" through ppl! So beware!
Good! (Well Brianna is more the same age as Rahvin if I remember right it turned out that Telina was quite a bit older than she appeared to be..
)
Now Bree will be astonished about that DU thing but then again it will make sense to her I suppose...and she´d appreciate to finally get to know what really happened...back then 20 years ago.
Hmmm.....I feel a bit uneasy though... If Tel tells Bree all about her past she will probably get hurt..oh well, we´ll see.. As long as she doesn´t try anything with Rahvin it´s ok...
Now I just read your last post..and I must tell you we do not use mindreading as we used to anymore...just so you know!
So who's going to kill Salina, if she is to be killed during the battle for the breach. Perhaps Dan could stick his sword into her when she isn't looking. She wouldn't notice an old wounded Nord lying on the ground wouldn't she? I'm saying that she could be killed by a more subtle way since my character isn't a powerful spell-caster able to go one on one with Salina.
Anyway, this isn't really my concern is it? It's Tellie's. I just wanted to open discussion on this topic.
Well, not Flint. He just lacks the guts to go up against a Telina MK II. He would be willing to provide support though, like he did when Telina was fighting. Not that it helped much that time. ![]()
Maybe it's time to bring out the Narza'Tai. I've got a group who are bored out of their skulls. Deploying bottles of poison gas gets old after a while. So, Vasha breaking Narza'Tai rules and joining the battle directly? (In the form of a squad of crossbowmen and one Argonian with a nasty spear.) Sounds good, or is it a bad idea?
As I said, Satyana can do it....It´s a shame Telina didn´t meet Brianna though....
They should have had a lot to talk about...
Brianna would have been a good avenging angel....imo
I agree. It does ruin the suspension of disbelief as I said before.
The shotgun is in the end, Tellie's decision.
The best way to get rid of it though, is either to remove the ammo or have the Plys'Iea snatch it up and crumple it in a display of outworldish strenght.
That said, I was supposed to start a discusion about the Plys'Iea vs Dan/James/Flint fight, but I posted in the wrong thread. So here is some copy and paste stuff.
First I said: ,,Alright. Griff suggested planning and I agree. Seeing as how the Plys'Iea will be fighting against three characters, we could use some planning to ensure proper coöperation between James, Dan and Flint.
So, Revan, Tellie, Griff. Any ideas on how to do it?
As for me, I see Dan rushing to meet the alien in melee while Flint does his best to support him with Telekinesis. (Like he did with Rann a while back, slowing the Plys'Iea's blow long enough for Rann to dodge.)
The only problem I see with this plan is James. All of his offense appears to be area effect here and so far, not very effective either. While the shotgun might prove to be a good distraction, I fear Dan would get ripped up by any stray pebbles."
Then there was a slight detour with a small discussion regarding men and aggression. After that though, Griff said the following: ,,As for the actual plan I like it. It does seem to be typical of Dan to charge the enemy without any thought whatsoever to his own safety. I agree. Let's hear what Tellie says about it."
I hoped to balance the alien out in the fact that his weapons had long since become worthless (nineteen years is a long time to go without use and ammo). Since his armor doesn't have any offensive value, I guess that is enough of a balance.
*Rambling about justifying Plys'Iea ends*
Anyway, I don't think he'll stop to bend the shotgun, just knock it out of James' hands (damaging it and perhaps wounding the guy's hands in the process). Aside from that, he'll stick to amazing acrobatics and nearly killing the three for the most part until someone shows up (maybe Altair) and the battles shifts from the three to a showdown of Salina and Plys'Iea versus disguised Veric, or the uber-villain will drive the alien off (clearly the least epic option).
By the way, wasn't Flogir near James when "Big, bad, and scaly" showed up?
I don´t like the fact that there´s a shotgun at all, shotguns are just misplaced in a RP with settings in Tamriel! I can´t help it I just don´t like it, it doesn´t fit in....Sorry guys but that´s the way it is.
yes yes..
I will lock this one...soon
I'll make it soo that he is now out of ammo....it started to get boring now anyways...(and he have been in tamriel for three years, and used a round here, and a round there...but this battle have used up his last one)
We should start a new planning thread as well, this one have long since gone over the limit.
Mmmmm ok I now declare this thread closed!
