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.

Also. I understand Kayla is in a hurry to get into some dude's pants and Aravi . . . well, she's got her own things to do. So how about we skip ahead to the cavern? Instead of waiting to post the whole armoring up to leave?

Trust me, I also want to end this, too. But I am also eager to get posting.

A general remark unrelated to the cave: Let's assume that the tiresome details like paying bills, turning in keys, and reserving rooms have been handled. Of course write them for your character if you like, but don't wait for a staff member post about it.

I'm fine with skipping to the cave as soon as we wrap things up in the Goblet.

How big of a nest do we want to take on? I'd say 12 feral vamps at most and I know DE expressed interest in controlling a master vampire or something. I'm fine with that.

Do we want to have zombies and skeletons too, or just have vampires?

I've cleared Black Rock Caverns with everyone already, but just to make it official, We're Going Here

And I'm suggesting a different thread for the Cave just to keep this from cluttering up the Goblet. The Goblet is the social RP, not a fighting RP.

Good point, KC.

Also there’s the time issue. We’re using the real date to keep time moving in the tavern. With separate threads we won’t get bogged down if the adventures move slower.

Twelve sounds good to me, and one master. I'm feeling pretty outclassed here, considering Kayla is the only non-wolf in the group, but a few zombies and skeletons won't be an issue. Maybe each of our characters gets three apiece, and we take turns taking shots at the master. I don't want one person taking all the glory.

The way I'm playing Aravi is that she doesn't have any benefit from the wolf thing except for the disease immunity. She's not embracing it like Lycus and Vera are, so I'm sure it affects them differently.

Sounds good. We're having a few skeletons, too. No zombies.

Also, I'll just have Lycus reconsider and have Vera go with you guys. That way we won't have an overkill. I know, she can be a bit nasty but that's just the first impression. You'll get to like her. Sorry if it was just meant to be Kayla and Aravi but when hunting is involved, Vera simply must oblige.

Guilty explanation:


I was having trouble making the listed staff, that many NPC's in one building would have dropped the FPS's down to single digits.

So I started out making the ones we would deal with most as described, but ended up with issues there too. Not sure why the Bosmer Ostler crashed the CS, but he did. As soon as I removed him the mod stabilized again.

I've used Eyja and Vinja in every mod with NPC's I've ever made, they are second nature for me - so I planned originally just to set them up in there and get them working, then change their names and races to match the staff list.

Well, by the time I got everything working, I just couldn't do it. I was kind of afraid to mess with all that hard work and end up causing the whole thing to crash around my ears.

If anyone wants to, they can go into the mod in the CS and change the names/races of the 5 NPC's to any Grits listed in those jobs - try it if you want to and let us know if it creates any problems - I really don't know if causes issues or not, but was afraid to find out.

I'm afraid it may break their references and they could stop working their AI packages, etc. It was just too much risk to take after all that work.

What I was thinking to make up the difference is that I can write Eyja's parts in the RP as a customer who makes her income by hustling customers for armor/weapons repairs in the daytime (and possibly hustling them for paid favors at night).

mALX, I have not found my game disc yet. I need to toss The Boy's room. I suspect he has it. kvleft.gif

Vampire hunters, you can have Nora come in and talk to you if you like. She knows where Irvana said she was attacked.

Sorry mALX, but like I told you earlier I'm having a very difficult time creating Aravi in Oblivion again.

mALX, you have done a wonderfully amazing job here! Kudos to you! The mod looks great and I sure enjoyed the videos!

The only problem I have is that I don't have Oblivion for the PC sad.gif

Doesn't mean I can't still admire, though.

In regards to the RP itself, wouldn't it be wise to time skip to the new location in the new thread so we wouldn't have to waste anymore time? We want that social aspect of the RP, right? Lets do battle, get it done, and come back! smile.gif

OK, I'll do a staff post at the end of the weekend to move the inn's time along. Do you vampire hunters plan to return to the inn after the adventure? When your cave thread splits off you can always bring your characters back to the inn before your cave adventure actually finishes. That way your characters won't get stalled in the cave time-wise. Isn't Kayla's birthday at the end of the summer? I'd hate for her to miss her party. tongue.gif
