So I guess me and shogun need to decide on when I'm freeing Veric now eh? If I remember correctly it seems that we were interested in doing it relatively soon, like while they're still in the Imperial City. No one got back to me on that one though

im up for it anytime. and no one really answered... i'm assuming that veric was banished to his own domain-thingy? that's what i am putting in the char sheet now..

Yea, from what I remember, he's in his own dimension thingy reading prophecy about the kids.

which character is it of yours that is giong to free veric again? not flogir i assume.

No, not Flogir. An Altmer by the name of Voltar is in the midst of figuring out how to release Veric.

and where might Voltar be at the moment? i have a character who has dealt with veric who is not trapped in another dimension that may find voltar.. or not *shrug*

Voltar's hideout is a little shack along the western coastline, North of Anvil.

Sadril may pay a visit if you don't mind. it won't be for a little while real time though. writing a Veric post.

Since we didn't have Rann raised by Sadril as planned, we're just going to have to schedule a meeting.

indeed. i regret missing out on that but that's what i get i suppose.

should make for an interesting meeting.

Just wondering - should Hecate escape from the Imperial Prison (since that's most likely the place where he would end up, if not executed) and maybe manage to come in contact with Veric as soon as he has come free?

Already thought of a classic escape seen for Hecate - Sorry, won't be a Prison Break, the Imperial Prison...

He's 54 now though, so I'll post in character thread if everyones alright with it. The group, especially Flint will be like his arch-enemy type of thing

Oh yeah, definitely. I would love to get Hecate back. All those times he tried to off Flint were hilarious. I do suggest you read the character thread though. Flint has a few new tricks up his sleeve.

Edit: I do suggest that Hecate is in prison for either business or a new crime. I don't think they'll wait twenty years with execution. Not with every guard running around in armour with a Broadsword.

I'll see if I can come up with something. Maybe he was just chained deep inside the prison for life, for some that's worse than a execution..

Hells yea. that would be torture... I'd go crazy..

And I'd be quite mad at the ones who put me there. Good incentive to keep up the evil fight!


My my... our rogues gallery has made a substantial increase, our good guys better beware!

brings a tear to my eye.

Im just waiting for things to get rolling before the Silhouette starts everything.

everything pertaining to what exactly?

Well, the Sil has sent Karn to kill Chan. Ocato, and Green-Root to gather the pirates to attack Bravil and Leyawin. As for what he's doing personally...... only Florodine knows.


PS: Karn's loyalty to the Silhouete is not as strong as it appears, Virec could persuade him to fight for your cause

ah i see. it would seem my return (and now veric's) have coincided with a sub-plot of sorts? i havent fully read through the THiH II threads yet, simply skimmed.

You do know, then, that Veric's main goal now is the vacant emperor's position?

Yea, it's a sub-plot of sorts, something to distract our heroes while we tried to figure out when to release Veric.

Basically, a powerful (and secretive) being known simply as The Silhouette, has amassed an army in the mountains, as his call attracts those with evil in their hearts. Though some evil beings obviously have the mental capacity to resist this attraction (Voltar, likely Veric and Sadril, and Karn for example).

Now with Veric released, we can figure out some different ways of incorporating whether Veric will be against the Sil or neutral or possibly make use of him or whatever.

O RLY?

yes well... that will be something to rise to... erm ok... so the rp takes place after oblivion some 20-odd years and there is still no emperor?


well sadril isn't evil but yeah, should be fun.

Right, Ocato still holds the executive power, and sucks at it. The Empire is pretty much failing.

Ohhh oooo!! Hes the Lord Protector

Yes I am such a history dork..

huh?

anyway, veric was unaware of the empire's condition until my last post. now he has an "why not snag emperor along the way?" approach.

i still haven't fully come up with a 'prophecy' that these no-longer children are supposed to prevent/fuel though...

I left it vague for a reason. It fits the story as long as you don't give out its exact words. Basically, there are different possible endings in the prophecy, each one centering on the actions of the three; they can all help or harm, or they could even ally themselves on different sides. So he may not want to kill them, if it guarantees his ascension, but he doesn't want to risk them stopping him either.

by ascension you mean to the throne correct?

there would have to be a deeper motive however. something greater gained by becoming emperor through the use of three.

Perhaps the power of the Aedra? Martin turned into an incarnation of Akatosh if I read through the threads on this forum correctly. Hey, more power is always a nice thing. Especially since Akatosh is the lord of time. Time is a great power to command.



As for Green-Root, I'm going to wait a few Rp-days till I think he's had enough time to organize the desired attack.

Oh dear oh dear.....so much happened while I was away..hmmm gonna start catching up then. Satyana sticks with Rann and Jonathan....of course she helps Jon! But I´m not really sure what they´re up to just now. That Library.....why do they have to go there? I haven´t really understood that part. And will Satyana also go with them? Someone just enlighten me a tad? please...

They're going to the library to look for a certain word that Dalrus discovered, Moldaire, I think the word was. Basically, it's a word that connects to the Silhouette and his minions. But that's about all I know about it.

Make use of him, hardly! Why would the Silhouette work for Veric, remember Veric is the strongest spell caster in Tamriel, but the Sil is not from Tamriel. Its not really a sub plot, more of a co-plot

I was simply just tossing out ideas, I figured that one wouldn't be a choice though

But it would be a good idea to figure out how Veric and the Silhouette will interact with each other.

best spell caster in all of tamriel is simply a title. and i may have no right to tread here seeing as i have been absent but when the rp was originally created there was no plan for a 'co-plot'. of course i speak of the first rp, this is THiH II and i was not around when it was created *shrug*

Inside an inn somewhere in Chorrol I believe Brianna have started to remember something about Rahvin if I remember right, flashbacks..

i should have a reply with veric in a bit, metal mallet. i just need to think of what xactly to do

I hope that the gang is either gone when Veric arrives, or that he fails to recognize the oldtimers. If not, we're all nosedeep into trouble.

Oh my....do I get scared! it would be ..ehh interesting if he recognizes them or what?

I'm not worried about Sathyana. After all, there are multiple solutions to the phrophesy and Veric would probably love the irony of using one of the kids for his own goals. No, I'm worried about Flint. He's too old to put up a fight against a big baddie like Veric.

Don't forget that the oldtimers were the ones who sealed him. He might want revenge. Especially if revenge is easy.

Hmmm...ok no Satyana would probably be ok....Then Flint..yes...he´s a bit older now..but maybe...well no I don´t know if I should put in Serene.....she´s also a bit older now but her powers are still outstanding.

20 years is a long time.. long enough for a good mage to master a counter against a certain spell that doomed him? we'll see eventually

anyway if he recognized any oldtimers i doubt he would do anything. you all so easily assume he heads to the bloated float out of shear coincidence.

edit: would anyone else in the bloated float like to make a post before i do? i'd like to get an idea of what some of the people in the area are doing at the moment.

I believe that everyone is leaving for the library. So it is more likely that they are just outside the Bloated float and walking away than sitting inside and talking. Ok, I'll make a post.

Heey...Satyana´s not drunk!!! She hurt her head when Jonathan threw her over the counter!!!

pff she must've seemed drunk to veric then.

Yeah.....hmm hopefully Danny will post as Rahvin soon or Brianna will dwell in limbo.....

Just wondering, as I didn't really catch the last parts of THIH but where did Serene end up?

Oh she and Haldin went back to Ald´ruhn and raised Satyana.....living in Sarethi Manor....

I´m thinking of letting her in again....she´s kinda my favourite after all.....

Ald'rhun. I think at least. Sounds like the right place to go. Back to Athyn who she was with before joining up with the THIH gang.

who raised rann again? and where has tellie been?

and nice post @fuzzy with the return of hecate you write fight scenes so well.

Hehe thanks Shogun - it's all because of the RA Salvatore books I read, Drizzt and stuff Talking about Drizzt, Arco may return soon as well, just working something out with Minkey about that.. so maybe more combat scenes to come
