just some random questions :

why are all the characters panicking? And how does Lexie not count? She was included...

jack cloudy
Who is panicking? I don't see any panic. And yeah, Lexie was included for as far as I knew. Hitius said five as in 'the five of you here'. That would be Jo'Puma, Ahn, Lexie, Madrukh and....Reggard I guess. Did I miss anyone? I don't think Hitius included himself when he mentioned five.
minque
Hmm..my bad, I thought he ment five men....anyway, she doesn't panic ....
GunsnArmor
He isn't includiong himself when he says five....and he meant everyone in the room, including Reggard, who I forgot was not in the room. I'll edit it.
Dantrag
don't worry about editing now; we've already gotten past it. Then the next few posts won't make sense.
GunsnArmor
Ok. I'm working on a picture to show what the traditional Red Altar armor looks like.
DungeonHunter
the ball's pretty much in my court as far as if the guild members escape or not, any suggestions?
DungeonHunter
btw: id be panicking if my guildmaster was mysteriously assasinated
Dantrag
i think we should start this attack soon...
DungeonHunter
it's jack's call
jack cloudy
Ok, I'll accelerate forward and have all three parts of the army gather at the door. Or wait, the coast bit will be a bit behind due to the storm.
Dantrag
wheres gunsnarmor?
jack cloudy
I dunno. He tends to leave for a while at times. I'd say we wait till tomorrow. If he isn't on then, we'll simply have to fight without Hitius.
GunsnArmor
I'm not going to read the posts in the Playground because I don't have time. But I wanted to say that I have not been posting because I've been on vacation. And since this is the only chance I can get on the computer, I will not post again until the 15 or 16.

I'm a little disapointed you went on without me.
Priest of Sithis
Is it alright for the Priest to join?

I have a few ideas, but i am really rather confused about the main idea of this rp.
Lord Revan
Yes, the basic plot is a guild war. One guild (the Bronze Guild, AKA The Keepers of the Secret) was founded to combat a mysterious guild/cult called the Red Altar. The leader of the Red Altar desires imortality, and the KOTS are trying to stop that goal from being fulfilled.

Btw, where is this shack. Phiona might stumble upon it on her way to Mournhold.
Priest of Sithis
a little inlet above the "o" in Morrowind

Look here
Lord Revan

Most of the locations are on mainland Morrowind, not Vvardenfell.
Priest of Sithis
Is there any way for the KOTS to suddenly, shall we say, stumble upon Lucien, because if there isn't , i might have to write him a really crappy reason to leave his home.
Lord Revan

The KOTS are currently in their guildhall trying to fight off the invaders. It is possible a member might dstumble on the shack, but that will be after the battle. Phiona is from the Red Altar, but she's leaving the guildhall of the KOTS to go to Mournhold.
Dantrag
Ahn is going to Mournhold too...

would be funny to have them start travelling together, not knowing their on opposite sides.
Lord Revan

Yeah, maybe that should happen. Phiona will probably take her time when traveling to the city.
ShogunSniper
even though i only made one post i did have plans to participate in this rp... im dropping out for now though, i can barely post in THiH..
jack cloudy
Umm, is anyone going to post so we can wrap up this battle?
Lord Revan

So, shall Lucien have an encounter with our playfully treacherous Bosmer thief?
Priest of Sithis
Why not?

Lucien will be around the town, shopping mostly
jack cloudy
Ok, so Ahn and Lexie are escaping, Madrukh has jumped off a cliff (and landed in water, so he's not dead yet.)

But all the other guildmembers are frozen. Since I'm leaving saturday for three weeks, I'll let things continue. If however, I come back and the situation hasn't changed yet, Deryll will capture all the guildmembers still in the hall and put them in a cell, somewhere in Mournhold or another city probably. From there, any returning members can escape and whatnot. But, this is only a worst case scenario.
Lord Revan

Despite (or maybe completely true to) what Dagon predicts, Phiona will probably extend this relationship with Lucien. Instead of just steal from him from the get-go (possible) *hint-hint*
Priest of Sithis
Lucien is dirt poor
Lord Revan

Could be one among many reasons for my previous comment......
Tellie
I think this one looks promising...I'll join I think.

Most likely it'l be James that I'll join up, but I'll have to see.
Agent Griff
What exactly is the current situation?
jack cloudy
For as far as I know. (my memory is kinda hazy, sorry.)

The Bronze guild has pretty much been destroyed. Only Lexie, Ahn and Gro-Bolg remain free. Lexie and Ahn are together while Gro-Bolg has been separated from everyone else after he jumped off a cliff and into the sea. Deryll Farfing is now sitting in the Bronze guild's office, celebrating victory while the captured guild members are being taken away by the army.

Then there are Phiona and Dagon who are in Mournhold (I think.) And finally there is Lucien, who is somewhere.
Agent Griff
So, can your Orc for example "randomly" pluck an Imperial Battlemage on the road? I mean, my Imperial Battlemage could help your Orc right? He could give him a few healing potions to get him back on his feet and join him, or something like that. What about it?
jack cloudy
That would work. Gro-Bolg will be sitting in a ditch beside the road, trying to warm himself at a small fire.
Tellie
Say, perhaps if that is the case, your orc cloudy after he have picked up the battlemage, pick up James...I imagine it could be quite funny that (after he have tried to rob you, which he will), that he ends up blowing up a stupid ogre or something, and the three decide to journey together...after all one never know when a shotgun or home made molotov cocktail can come in handy. biggrin.gif
jack cloudy
Lol, the noble knight wannabe, one Imperial Battlemage and a triggerhappy badmouthed gangster? That sounds like it could lead to some funny situations.

So, care to put your characters into the character thread? smile.gif
Tellie
Doing it now...so I guess that James shall start heading towards the orc then eh...although the orc have to find it amusing to see a young man stand there with a stick with two holes in, demanding whatever he wants. biggrin.gif
Agent Griff
I've already made Trebonius.
minque
Well if Danny decides to continue this Iīll also do it...
jack cloudy
Alright. Griff suggested planning and I agree. Seeing as how the Plys'Iea will be fighting against three characters, we could use some planning to ensure proper coöperation between James, Dan and Flint.

So, Revan, Tellie, Griff. Any ideas on how to do it?

As for me, I see Dan rushing to meet the alien in melee while Flint does his best to support him with Telekinesis. (Like he did with Rann a while back, slowing the Plys'Iea's blow long enough for Rann to dodge.)
The only problem I see with this plan is James. All of his offense appears to be area effect here and so far, not very effective either. While the shotgun might prove to be a good distraction, I fear Dan would get ripped up by any stray pebbles.
minque
My god....always fights! Donīt you guys ever get tired of the continous fighting that goes on in our RP:s??? kvright.gif
Agent Griff
Well, we're guys after all. If we can't write about killing and fighting then we can't really feel like guys. You know the whole testosterone thing. Anyway, the only glitch I can see with your plan is that you posted it in the wrong planning thread. This is the thread for Secrets of the Red Altar, not To Heir is Human.

As for the actual plan I like it. It does seem to be typical of Dan to charge the enemy without any thought whatsoever to his own safety. I agree. Let's hear what Tellie says about it.
jack cloudy
Sorry. I'll copy and paste both yours and mine stuff to it.

And as for the fighting. Well I rarely start it, but I rarely seem to avoid it as well. Yup, let's blame good old Testosterone. But what about Tellie? She seems to be the aggressive sort and I thinks she's a woman.
minque
I post in the right thread, Griffie! Or really it doesnīt matter, there are continous fights in both RP:s....for all that matters.

I understand the testosterone-thing, but still, wouldnīt you like to really play sometimes? Not just describing how much damage you do....?

Oh aye Tellie is female, but sheīs become very aggressive after her return...donīt really know why... mellow.gif

I just wish there was more roleplay and less fighting! I donīt mean to exclude all fights...itīs just too much, thatīs all!
Tellie
hehe...the reason I've become more agressive, is propably due to the fact that I've been overworked and stressed the last months, and any form of agression, even in written form is always a bit soothing, beside, I've always been a bit of a tomboy in my life, and so, I guess the male attidute of violence have somewhat affected me.


But I agree with minque, we propably should tone down on the fighting a little bit soon, after all we need other thigns than fights too. smile.gif


And as for James, remember he have two very fancy daggers that he likes to use when things get close and personal...so if he can manage to go onto the Plys'ea from the side or rear he can at least do some damage hopefully...alternatively he can pick up a sword, but most likely he's going to end up badly wounded then...
jack cloudy
Hmm, I see what you mean. The rps are simply too heavily biased towards combat here. I mean, just look at how we build the character thread. Do we describe our character's love of poetry or skill at flower arrangement? No, we describe weapons and other stuff like that.

I hope we get done with the siege in To Heir is Human pretty soon, it's beginning to get old. Part three sounds more interesting to me right now, what with the political intrige of a mind-controlling Altair and all. In the case of this rp here, I don't know what will happen. I do know I want Madrukh to continue his quest at becoming the perfect knight while Deryl will try to find Lexie and Ahn, in a more subtle way than simply swarming the countryside with grunts.
minque
Ahhh....I thought you still had a female touch in you Tel! Iīm so glad!

Oh but Jackie thereīs no need for flower-arrangements, we can still describe our weaponry and armor...it is a violent world we are rp-ing in, so fighting is normal..but you who participated in AMU maybe remember that we had a lot of very good interactions between charachters as well as good fights and stuff....I think we still can achieve that....if we want to.. smile.gif
Tellie
Of course we can...and I at least want's to, so let's just take it slow and easy, and try not to rush things...I find the Rp'ing much more enjoyable and it lasts longer as well.

And thanks minqy, it's good to hear I haven't completely betrayed my gender...(and I guess that the fact that I can still giggle, is a good sign tongue.gif )
