Discussion Thread



What’s this?

A player-run TES RP tavern where your characters can drop in for some fun. Celebrate a holiday, plan an adventure, or share a relaxing time with friends. The Wobbly Goblet is located in County Chorrol, and the year is… any year. Imagine a place where parallel worlds magically meet. We’ll use the Tamriel calendar and the real-world date. (So today is Second Seed 16th.) All are welcome! Grits and King Coin are your hosts, so contact us if you have questions.



Do I need to sign up or be invited?

Nope, just drop in. Post a character sheet here if you like, or link to another one you’ve used, or just give us a quick description of what your character looks like as they walk in the door. Link to a picture, if you have one. This is an informal meeting space, so we don’t need a whole lot of information.



So which thread should I use? What’s with all of the WGs?

The main thread can be found here: The Wobbly Goblet Playground. Feel free to introduce your character here in the discussion thread and jump right in to the Playground. The threads such as WG – Black Rock Caverns are adventures in progress, so you need to contact someone who’s posting there to possibly get involved. Sometimes players meet up in the Wobbly Goblet and decide to head out on various escapades together. When that happens they start a new thread.

Occasionally we host special events at the Goblet, like the Harvest’s End Festival. These events run for a certain period of time so that folks have an opportunity to join in. Watch this thread for announcements of upcoming occasions.



Code of Conduct:

1. Remember your forum rules. Keep it PG-13, be courteous, no spamming.

2. The tavern thread is for IN character posts. Please keep other discussion in this thread.

3. The Wobbly Goblet is a safe zone for all characters.

4. You only control your own characters. You should not give other player’s characters actions, lines, thoughts, or move them without the player’s explicit permission. Very small things like a nod, a grunt, or a word is usually fine, but if the player asks you to edit, then please do so. For example if you and another player go outside and brawl: ‘Thirsty Hair-Back picked up Myelfindil and slammed him to the ground’ =NO. Thirsty’s player just controlled the other player’s character. ‘Thirsty Hair-Back reached out to pick up the annoying elf, hoping to slam him to the ground’ =OK. Now Myelfindil’s player can decide what happens to him.

5. NPCs can be used, but posts should not be from their perspective. Your hosts Grits and King Coin will write for the NPCs when necessary.

6. Immediate emergencies should be avoided in the main thread. They can be fun, but they also can place other people in uncomfortable positions. They force people to either drop what they are doing, or else awkwardly find an excuse to not run to someone’s aid.



Roleplaying Guidelines:

1. Each thread is its own story or theme. New stories should have a different thread. Offshoot threads will be governed by the thread starter as they see fit. The Wobbly Goblet main thread doesn't have a story, but a theme. That theme is the inn itself. Posts in the main thread should be in, around, or traveling to or from the inn.

2. If you want to post, you need to keep your post consistent with the current state of the world. Read previous replies, or ask other players to tell you what is happening.

3. Posting in the roleplaying threads should be done with the purpose of interacting with other player’s characters. Not every post is required to interact with other player characters, but if your posts will never put you in a position to interact with other player characters, then please reconsider the content of your posts so that you can interact.

4. Disputes. We are going to assume that the rules here are being followed unless something looks very off. If your character is used by another player, we will assume they had permission. If this is not the case try talking to the poster. If you are unable to get a favorable response, then let us (Grits or King Coin) know.


Any comments? Questions? Post them here.

Dawnbreaker rarely does that unless Kayla's pissed off. She'll calm down as soon as the vamps start coming.

Edit: I also fully plan on Kayla becoming wounded, so don't you daretalk to ME about god-like characters, KC! XD

I'll PM you about this.

Oh my . . .

Major edit post needs to be done.



The plan may yet work with them rushing into the chamber. One can remain in the open, and two can conceal themselves.

If anyone wants to interrupt Lycus, go right ahead. He's just having a private moment. 'Didn't want to leave him out of the RP when his wife is doing all the hunting with Aravi and Kayla.

Sorry Elisebeth, I did not mean to single you out.

This applies to Vera too DE! She seemed OP when she already knew there was a vampire behind her. There was just a loud, bright explosion in there. With her enhanced senses, that would only play more hell on her than it would a normal person. I'm not suggesting an edit, I'm just saying keep it in mind for future battles, ok?


Also: This is my first time in an RP so do let me know about what I am doing as well.

OK, WG-TMotPH is up. I was vague about where Abiene got the tea and I can change it if that's going to be a clue.


l o l

Also for TMOTPH, first of all YAY everyone who wants to play!!

Abiene has to run around in Chorrol a little and then decide where she’ll settle for the cure. She’d listen to Eyja’s advice on that.

TMOTPH ... hmmm, "to mother phucker that did this to my character's roleplay?" Oh wait, no R.

Abiene can do anything she wants once the blue is gone from the whites of her eyes (which it will be by the end of her healing session from the last posts on the Wobbly thread). But she may find herself running to the urn every now and then.

3X daily for (3 days to 1 week) she has to do a thorough healing and drink a potion (or eat a combination of those raw ingredients) - Before breakfast/lunch/dinner would be perfect timing, though she doesn't need to eat afterward (and may not have a big appetite after that potion).

For the next few days the whites of her eyes will sometimes show that blueish tint as a clue she needs to stop whatever she is doing and do the healing/drink a potion.

The only reason she will need to hide out anywhere would be if she is afraid, and the Mages Guild or chapel would be a good spot for that (Teekeeus won't let anyone in there, lol) - but she doesn't have to hole up for the cure.

mALX!!

My virgin ears!!

Oh wait, I curse like a sailor with tourettes that moonlights as a trucker.

So mystery is in motion. Where do I come in and what capacity I am pondering? Im gussing Eyja needs to inform me something is amiss.

Lol, when I was reading Grits's post in my email box notices - I was pretty sure that bunching of letters was some form of cursing me out (till I noticed the new thread, lol).

If Seth doesn't join in before Eyja gets to him, Eyja will seek him out when she goes to the inn for that charcoal. He is the only one who would understand the implications of that particular poison being used.

Also Eyja knows he is from another Province and may possibly have some of those Morrowindy ingredients on hand to sell her.


Corkbulb root
Netch Leather
Scrib Jelly
Scamp skin
Kwama cuttle
Ash yam

Oo! Lycus can help too if you want. Hes lived off of kwama, scribs and ash-hoppers for three years. He sure knows how poison can be used. Seth/Lycus team up would be good.

The Morrowind ingredients were a great idea! Abiene had to think of her Dunmer boss as a source of ingredients or she’d sound like a complete dimwit, but I don’t plan for her to get much from him. One withered up ash yam or something. Also with Sethyas being an alchemist I’ll delay Jerric and Darnand arriving. She has no idea where they are or if they’re even together. (Just that D will be able to reach J.)

GAAAAH! I was dying to see Jerric in action, lol.

** Casta Scribonia has not seen Maxical since she was bringing Abiene upstairs in the Mages Guild, by the way.

Eyja was kind of a hypocrit telling Abiene to not worry about patients in one breath and then pushing two on her in the next, lol.

Aaaaawwwww!!!

I wanted my terrible pun to the be the title:

Slayer causes heavy metal poisoning.

Shucks!!

Edited to add: I am only joking! Don't do it!

This post has been edited by Black Hand: Jul 18 2013, 12:38 AM

Don't delay J and D! :[

I think the title could be "Dimwitted newb to RP'ing inadvertently causes heavy metal poisoning," lol.

No, it was interesting!! It NEEDED something interesting going on, since the BRC is going agonizingly slow.

Oh I love the poison mystery!

Jerric would not be much help in this situation. His idea of an investigation would be to punch everyone in County Chorrol until they admitted they did it. That might not go over well with the other customers. Then we would need another new thread: WG - Brawlers In Prison.

Aw.

ROFL!! I very much picture Jerric doing this, lol.

Geez. She just poured out a giant story and all I get is a mini post from you, Liz? You must be punished!
