Where Are You Today? Options

[Renee]

It's funny how Lothran's game sounds so peaceful. He's just strolling along, letting Aureal (whoever that is) do all the heavy stuff.

[mirocu]

An Aureal is a Golden Saint, and not a specific one either


I just do an overview of Lothran's travels. There may not be a ton of action along the way but there is some. Exploring is what we are about though, not combat


Pics in pic thread!

WHAT???

First Lothran makes this surprise move into the Shivering Isles, then you are posting pics. Next, you'll be telling us all about this new toon you just rolled!

Who are you, and what have you done with our friend mirocu from Scandinavia?

First Lothran makes this surprise move into the Shivering Isles, then you are posting pics.

Don't forget the "fanfic" I posted earlier this year!

[mirocu]

Lothran started his return to the Isles by visiting Mania with its vibrant colours. He has now ended that part of the tour and he did so by visiting Split; the town that no longer has any stunt doubles. After that visit he went southward and into the region known as Dementia.

Right now he has spent the night in his tent in Crucible and is ready to further explore this part of the Isles. The shops of Crucible have already been shopped.

[mirocu]

Lothran has now reached the very edge of Madgod's Boot; close enough to see the walls that surround The Fringe. So far it has been a very nice visit and we are not done yet. Lothran does not understand the concept of "vacation" but he has promised me to stay in the Realm for the duration of it

[mirocu]

Yesterday was interesting; Lothran was in the Dementia prison system!

Not as a convict though but as an explorer. He wasn't going out to escape, rather he went in voluntarily! Don't think he has succumbed to the Isles though. He did the very same thing back home in Cyrodiil some time ago where he went into the grate he escaped from all those years ago and tried to get as far back to his cell as possible. So if anything, Lothran is affecting the Isles!
He also visited the Mazken stronghold at Pinnacle Rock yesterday. He wasn't let inside but he greeted the polite guards outside.

So far the Dementia part of the 2020 tour has yielded much more loot than Mania.

[mirocu]

After more than a week out in the south of the Isles, Lothran is now back in Crucible. He found a Mute Screaming Maw that the museum curator probably wants but Lothran is gonna keep that for his own collection back home. He's also collected a good amount of amber and madness ore.

Next time he heads out he'll probably visit Mania again.

[mirocu]

Today whilst traversing the mountains east of New Sheoth and going north, Lothran came upon a Zealot camp. Since he collects the gowns and hoods from previous Zealots he decided to pull a prank. He donned a whole outfit and calmly walked into the camp.
And interestingly, the real Zealots didn't attack him on sight. Not until he came almost close enough to talk to them at which point they cried out "You're not one of us!" and summoned a Flesh Atronach each. They were all quickly dispersed of though and after that little stunt Lothran is now once again in Mania.

Clever Warlock!

[mirocu]

Clever Warlock!

He did the same with some Heretics


---------------------

Lothran keeps re-exploring the northenmost parts of the Isles. Today he visited Brellach, the stronghold of the Aureals, or Golden Saints as they are more commonly known. Like with the Dark Seducer's, he wasn't let in, so he didn't stay long and is now close to Cann, a fort not far from Brellach.

[Renee]

Why wasn't he let in?

[mirocu]

Why wasn't he let in?

Because he doesn't do the MQ

[mirocu]

Yesterday Lothran visited another place out of bounce to him; Cylarne, up in the NW parts of the Isles. One Mazken and one Aureal was guarding the place and both asked him to leave, one more kindly than the other. Very well. We're not dungeon diving anyway, rather we prefer to roam the land and take in the views.

[Renee]

Huh, that's weird. They asked Lothran to leave. How odd.

It's been mostly sunny for weeks in Maryland, so this is why I haven't been playing Oblivion for awhile. Stay tuned for Snaat Rayag and eventually Balztu Dahwalz. Maybe in August.

[SubRosa]

Cylarne is a quest-locked location, part of the SI main quest.

[mirocu]

Lothran is now back in The Fringe. He has fulfilled his promise of staying in the Isles for the duration of the vacation, and as it's coming to an end it's time for him to return to Cyrodiil.

More ingredients collected, as well as amber, madness ore and some matrixes. It has been fun roaming the Isles but it'll be nice to come home again. Hopefully the portal is still there...

And hopefully when Lothran gets back to Cyrodiil, Gaius Prentus won't admonish him with, "Stay away from me. You've already spent too much time... over there."

[mirocu]

Lothran was indeed met by those words upon re-entering Cyrodiil. But the guard didn't do anything else and after a nice walk on the Niben Lothran is now resting in Silverhome-on-the-Water, contemplating his recent adventures into the realm of madness. Considering he swore never to return way back in 2012 I think, this is quite a big thing for him.

First Seed 7, Year 434 -- Snaat Rayag has been moseying around the Imperial City, keeping several folks down on the Waterfront, as well as the bandits of Dzonot Cave and one other cave stocked with skooma. He is saving up his money and once he's got enough I think you all will be in for a surprise.

As a character, he is quite conservative. He's a Merchant, not an Adventurer. He is all about earning gold through plying his wares. Not stealing, not going down into some holes and beating up monsters. So I won't be gaming with him all summer...I want to get to Balztu soon. Hopefully this weekend Snaaty will be able to make enough gold. Again, you all will be surprised.
