Ahem,
Judging by previous conversations as well as the low activity in WoH, the plotlines are simply too involved and confusing for any newcomers as well as old participants. (yes, I can use big words like 'participant') So, brainstorm time. Things we have figured out based on experience : - No 'all powerful' characters (ex. Arcyakt - he just made things complicated and caused a lot of argument, considering the fact that he had no limit to his powers, and kind of made defeating him illogical) - Too many factions = bad. It just makes things hectic and hard to put together, expecially since with each new faction, you need at least 3 more characters, usually played by someone that already has multiple characters. - Large scale = bad. I mean, in WoH, it's all large-scale political schemes that go nowhere. There are no epic duels, huge arguments (Hey, the Sel vs. Niran stuff got old, but it was interesting), etc. - Feel free to add anything else. So based on these main no-no's, we need plottage. I was thinking that some kind of plot with two (somewhat equal) sides would be good. WoH was too much, but AMU was too one-sided. I'm sure Kiln and Shogun got bored RPing with only Arcyakt. If we could balance out the sides a little more, it would be good. And of course, there has to be some good old internal conflict. If most agree with these points, we can get into more specifics. -------------------- "Its when murder is justice that martyrs are made"

I like your ideas...especially Dannys...but bear in mind not all of us have played Oblivion...in fact all of us does not even have the game yet. So we will have to help each other with sceneries and so....
But I do not know how to play another charachter than Serene.....  .....besides..she actually comes from Cyrodiil!  -------------------- Chomh fada agus a bhionn daoine ah creiduint in aif�iseach, leanfaidh said na n-aingniomhi a choireamh (Voltaire)
