heh... you could have just said it.

I didn't realize they spanned the entirety of the sewers, I thought they'd just be in a section or two.

Well, even then, it would be logical to invade areas accessible from the outside, otherwise the defense would be pretty meaningless, don't you think?

Yeah Voltar will help definitely. They will hurt the Silhouette, they should get hurt too, but the Silhouette will see the rest of his army getting defeated, and the fact that he hasn't ever met someone as good as him, so he will run.

The Narza Tai might actually offer (indirect) aid to the defenders of the Imperial City. Their mages and alchemist assets are less hard pressed than those of the surface armies I imagine. Maybe make undetected delivery runs in between bombardments and actual battles.

I would think "magically appearing supplies" would help morale if only slightly.

Just so you know, Florodine, we aren't planning on commencing the attack for quite some time; we have a few key members that are absent for a while, so we're planning on hanging out in the beseiged city.

Yes, and sieges can last months at times.

Yeah thats why I wasn't commencing it, I was going to put in my post that its an advance guard.

Also, it will take quite some time to breach the gate, once inside, it will take them a while to push through to each new section, so it will take a few months. I think right as he is about to break into the last three sections, thats when it should end. So he will take the plaza, garden, and maybe up to market, however, the arena and temples will hold. I think the huge battle should take place in Green Emperor Way.

Mallet, when is Amrita going to move? It would be kind of weird for her to sit against a now deserted shack until the catapult (probably trebuchets) bombardment ends.

oh my gosh.... someone i (sort-of) know understands and knows that there is a difference between catapults and trebuchets.

I'm going to have Sodsa go to the walls and meet up with Issac, Rann, and Darus. I don't think to many people are at the Water Front anymore (Ian and Green root?).

tomorrow anyhow, i can't type tonight and i have stuff to do in the morning, night

Issac, Dalrus, Rann, and Satyana are inside the Tiber Septim (the tavern in the Talos Plaza District); Flogir, Flint, and Voltar are at the walls, and Sel is nowhere to be found at the moment.

Ian, Green-Root, Amrita, Tenek (and Tenek's brother's character), and Sodsa are still in the Waterfront. Ian just started talking to Sodsa (if telling him to get inside the city is talking).

And yes, I know that a trebuchet has a longer arm and holds the boulder in a net-sack. Just like a lesser catapult, the centrifical force of the swing ejects the projectile from the rope net. The trebuchet has a longer range than other catapults because of its extended reach.
Trebuchets have to be packed up to move, and unpacked to be of use (while most other catapults have wheels to make them mobile). And the trebuchet is also as tall as a siege tower sometimes.

Oh yea! Amrita! I guess I'll get her back into the city. She'll probably notify Veric about Sel being in town (they've run into each other before, correct?).

*sigh* if only Shogun were here. I don't truly want to control Veric while shogun isn't present, I might drag him to the walls though.

thanks, now i know exactly where to 'randomly' pop up.



yeah, i know

im back no need to worry. of course im only back to being on sometimes. so its not much of an improvement. but here in a week ill be around almost as normal.

sel and veric have never met, but since veric studied arcyakt, he will have undoubtedly read stories and bios of sel. those guys were made famous in morrowind after what happened in AMU.

Well, there seem to be a lot of conspiracies/agendas/prejudices now.

-Altait/Veric, Voltar, Sadril, and Amrita (I suppose add Rann later on.)

-Ian, Green-Root, Tenek (technically, lol), Karn, and Kirana (the people who think/know Altair and Voltar are up to no good, I suppose Satyana and Issac are tentatively in this group)

-Ian and Kirana

-Ian and Cerpin

-Karn, (all of the Narza Tai), and Sadril (the balance people)

-Karn and Patholos

-Tenek and Green-Root

-Flint and Flogir (who feeling like skinning, erm, scaling a certain Argonian)

I've probably missed a couple, but this gives you an idea..... Man, this is getting complicated!

Hehe, that's what makes epic RPs like this so much fun! So many agendas that'll probably take awile to hatch. It's going to be interesting to see how they turn out, especially since some involve the removal of certain characters.

And Revan! How could you forget one of your own: Ian and Karn!

Im trying to think of how I can fit Dalrus in a conspiracy...

lol so much fun, and i neglected Sodsa so now he isn't part of anything. bummer

The Priest is back, and ready to rp!

It looks like there are some new joiners, so welcome, and I will be posting more consistently in the future.

and old joiners that have decided to come back

well then, my humblest apologies for not being proactive enough to drudge through all those pages of character sheets,

anyways, hello just the same

hahaha no big, i'm kiddin.

and hello to you too.

POS, Vasha gave away her current location (the main chambers) to Patholos via another psychic burst.

K, I'll put Mannimarco on the waiting list for the Silhouette

Listen, I'll be gone for three weeks so I figure it would be best to list my character's goals for now so that others can control them accordingly.

Flint Ironwood.

Flint, while not thrusting Green-Root, is against any option that involves killing. In his opinion, Green-Root is evil yet still 'human' for lack of a better term. He will however agree to roughing him up a bit and then throwing him into a jail for later.
He will also do whatever is needed to fight against the siege, but he'll try to stay out of close combat on the walls and such. His place is at longer range, either shooting bows or unleashing telekinetic hell.

Green-Root

Green-Root isn't as stupid as he sometimes seems. He'll keep down for a while and do whatever is told. And if he learns about the whole balance thing, he'll actually start feeling for it and wish to officially join.

Hello to you too! It's good to see some new faces have joined up in my absence

Mannimarco is waiting for a response from the Silhouette

And Astratus getting assassinated would be interesting, would it not?

Patholos could possibly die or be captured by the Silhouette, making for a nice twist with the Narza'Tai, putting Patholos (the leader should Karn die) in danger and having Karn decide whether to save him or not.

Karn would have to save him from one of the camps, not from the Silhouette directly, but yeah that would be fine. Also, have Mannimarco start the conversation, I had the Silhouette come and ask who he was, if you read my last post in the playground.

really sorry. i dont have time to post now, but ill try to later tonight.

No problem Shogun. I'm planning on having people are at my place anyways so I might not be around to post tonight. Well if I do, it probably won't be until around 2am

Then there's the possibility I'll be intoxicated, but I think I still type pretty coherently while under the influence. Just takes a little longer.

Well, Ian and Issac are immobile until Satyana makes her statement. Ian's already tried (and clearly failed) to slay the Silhouete, escaping only due to guile (where would we be without it?) So, maybe Ian will accompany the force Karn sends to save Patholos (perhaps the Sil is counting on either Ian or Karn leading the counter-attack).

For the sake of the assassins, only Ian will encounter the demon (yeah, that's right, I called it a demon).

Uhh...what statement? She said she trusted them(Ian and Issac) Now please help me out, what statement do you need from Satyana?

nevermind, on another note: what if Altair knows all about this meeting because Ian had the amulet.

It would be a plot twist, Veric did say that one did not have to wear the trinket for Veric to hear his/her thoughts.

i'm down with it if you are. i was just gonna let it slide for the sake of the secrecy of the meeting, but it would make things slightly more interesting..

though i dont know how much it would change things. veric already figures a few people have figured out he's not who he says he is....

Patholos will prolly go over with some Shadow Eaters, not many thought,

what would be the reason for his going over?

Hey guys I'm going to be gone starting Wednesday the 25th (USA time) and i'll be gone for 10 - 11 days... I don't think i'll have internet access so Sodsa will have to be demoted to a puny archer on the walls for while i'm gone i guess. Unless anyone wants to play with him, that where he will be. Sorry guys, i forgot about this trip.

would veric have any way of knowing that green root has those tomes that once belonged to kirana?

and if anyone would refresh my terrible memory, how exactly did he get them?

When Kirana spirited Mannimarco and herself away, she left her tomes behind. And Green-Root was the one to pick up her bags.

Veric was present when the Argonian picked them up.

I put Mannimarco's legion in the process of attacking the Narza'Tai lair. If the Narza'Tai pull out to defend their lair, the city's sewers are unproctected, level Astratus to pull men off the walls...etc. (btw Astratus wanted to speak with Karn, idk if the guards even found him...)

What should go down?

A fledgling guild's only base under attack....

Well, all (95-98%) of the 'Tai are in the sewers, so for all intents and purposes, the sewers are their base for the moment. They even sleep and eat there...... that's a gross thought.

Still there can be a small gathering there. Seeing as the Narza Tai are utilizing magical assets as best they can, after a brief confrontation all of the surviving members teleport to the sewers (it's not so much of a stretch that the Narza Tai would devise an alternate means of carrying members and supplies from point A to point B, as it were).

The "Tai are on their feet, I like that, maybe the dead being diverted to the Lair will confuse the tsaeci forces and divert some of their focus from the city to the 'Tai. Making better for the besieged...

Anyways, is Kirana coming back from the spirit form she is in? It would make for a cliched but epic confrontation.... lol

I wasn't planning on it... But unlike Cerpin, she doesn't want another body. Kirana is content for the moment to remain in the body of her old friend and aid him in whatever way she can. I've been thinking, if the host of the body were to be knocked out, not killed, then wouldn't the sub-conscious barriers between body and soul be weakened (especially for a vampire).

So, is it possible that even if Ian is incompacitated, that Kirana can break through the barriers and take more direct control of his body. Other than that, I guess she could be the eyes-in-the-back-of-his-head and also benefit him with her knowledge and advice.

just a reminder if anyone's characters happens to wander towards the arcane university, the large tower there is collapsed. veric killed it some playgrounds ago while running an errand for karn.

I had Astratus near the big spire in the middle of the city, idk, is that still intact? if not ill edit

different building. I think you're safe.

Perhaps a little prematurely, I had Ian march over Lake Rumare to confront Mannimarco...... Oh, well, I'm sure it isn't as bad as the "vampire ambush incident" earlier.

Hello? *echoes*

*Stands right beside Dantrag* "Dan, if you can hear me, go in the opposite direction that my echo is going!" *Echo*

I'm still here, I check every few hours to see if there is another person that could post.

I..am here now, but that´s not important.... Satyana can´t do much except talking to herserlf maybe and poor Brianna is waiting for Rahvin ....

Oh well, we can't have that. *fiegns enthusiasm* I'm on it.
