half past ten at night at the mo in england. We are killing him because he is the lost brother of the lord of the neighbouring province. When told the pre-assassinatedlord dismissed his brother and cast him aside sayting he needed no family.

As this was an insult to Lord Hjeski's honour he payed 400 septims each to a mercenary band to kill his brother.


EDIT: Obviously. tongue.gif

How about the foreign lord is the one ordering the assassination of the nord lord (that does have a good ring to it). Maybe the nord lord had the foreign lord's murderous brother beheaded.

Kind of a revenge for family thing.
minque
Ohhh do we have a lot of lords now? A nord lord (sounds so utterly funny to me, I do like the sound of it), then another lord a foreign one..and some murderous brother? Isnīt that brother a lord as well?
Hey I canīt wait to get this one started, ..

Do I qualify to join the bad guys? evillol.sml.gif
Dantrag
well, the murderous brother would already be dead when the RP started...
Konji
Wahey. another bad member smile.gif right, we shall use your title Dantrag, so do you want to set up the character, playground and planning now? I've just got to do the finishing touches to the first bit of my story.
Dantrag
so.......that's what we're going with?

so basically

Setting = skyrim
plot = thing with dead lord and running heir
title = to heir is human

?
Konji
Aye.
minque
yes!! Then itīs settled ok?
Danny...youīre the leader of the gang....itīs best that way! And the more info on the background the better!

Then we can post our charachters.

I suppose no uber-charachters? Not too extravagant magic either? (just some weird-mind-reading-tormenting-murderous-spell huh? evillol.sml.gif biggrin.gif j/k)

I know this is completely retarded (no offesense to anyone....cry-babies), but what if we also have a general RP thread that has no plot. You know, it's just a big area that people can go into the do whatever they want. People could pretend like they're in their home twon (Chorrol, Skingrad, etc.) and just do everyday stuff. If they want, they could go off and act out a certain dunegon if they wanted. No global plot. No set enemy or obstical. No fixed time...er, well, that might be a good idea though....

Hmm, seemed like a good idea when I started...

Anyway, I like the Nord Lord (someone just shoot me) idea. When will the story area thread be made?
Konji
tongue.gif Ever heard of....fanfic?

Here's an idea, loosely taken from Fuzzy's. (mainly because the mention of a lord sparked an idea)

Okay, some sort of lord (be it a lord visiting SKyrim as an ambassador, or native to the area) is murdered by one, a few, or all of the bad guys, and the lord's heir barely escapes. Which means that the group has to give chase and try to kill him. The heir forms his own group (the good guys) and then it goes from there.

Another thing that would make it interesting is if some other plot unfolded, causing the two groups to work as one for awhile. This could happen a lot, causing switches in sides and assassination attempts during 'truce'.

Just an idea.

I really liked the idea of the two groups being forced to cooperate during certain events as a team, even though they don't really like eachother.

(Yeah I know what I'm about to suggest is probably pretty cheap sounding but give it a thought...this is about the times when the teams might be forced to work together...)

Perhaps the good and bad teams could meet up somewhere and start to fight eachother, but the ground beneath them could give and let them fall into an old tomb filled with undead nords, they don't want to work together but they are forced to in order to survive. Maybe after they've fought through the complex tomb, they could meet up with an ancient knight that was burried there and have to fight him in order to get the key to the exit or even some artifact or something.

Anyways it just sounded like a cool little side-quest type thing to me so tell me what yall think about this happening later on...

Then the heir is going to have to take a backseat position, because I refuse to play him. I hate nobles. kvright.gif

Besides, I already had a character forming in my head. tongue.gif

EDIT: and Kiln's tomb idea was pretty cool in my opinion.

I have no problem doing this in Skyrim, and so far I feel the plot works well.

Though it may be important to consult The Pocket Guide to the Empire for info on Skyrim.

Theres not much there, but there is a little bit of useful info on Nordic lore, history, and some details on terrain.
Dantrag
I think there needs to be some sort of larger plot that the heroes discover later, though. Because this RP would soon become an endless chase without one.

I mean, you can only get so creative with hunting down a person.

Errrrr,i don't want to sound stupid,but what's this thread\section all about?
I read this,but it doesn't provide me with enough info.
I joined this forum about a month ago,and this is the first time i'm entering this section.
Role-Playing.Is this some kind of a game? If it is,i wanna play!
Konji
A roleplay is where you develop a character and pretend you'r him/her and interact with other people trough writing. It is a atory written by lots of people who only control their character. Read some playground threads to get the idea.

Yeah, we couldn't exactly play family feud forever. A deep and understandable plot should be thought of later if it doesn't unfold through normal RP'ing.

And Kiln, I like your idea. Cool Nord zombies+ awesome underground tomb+ conflicting sides- Cyrodiil= awesome idea biggrin.gif.

Go get the planning thread made! *Points at Danny with his magical mod hand*

*Pokes Danny with his paw* Do it! biggrin.gif Planning Thread and maybe a seperate character thread? Don't know if we should start a Playground thread yet thought...
Dantrag
*cowers in fear from Fuzzy's poking and Red's mod-hand pointing*

Okay! I'll do it!

I'm going to read this thread later, but I just wanted to post a regret about not joining To Heir is Human and wasn't sure where to put it.

I got invited to join that one and wanted to ... but my timing absolutley sucked and when I went to read it to formulate a character, they had already started and so I decided to wait it out until the next one. But I do like to RP.

You are aware that this one probably isn't ending for a while right? If you still wanna join one jump right in because I'm afraid that this one is probably going to last quite some time...I'm pretty sure you can still join if you're still interested, we just had two new people join a few days ago. smile.gif
Ibis
Oh? Thanks for letting me know Kiln. I'll read up on it then and see if I can figure out how to join in.

I posted a brief summary somewhere in the planning thread. Maybe that will make it easier for you?

Just trying to help. smile.gif
