Lum gro-Baroth spoke the truth. If anyone can teach Jericho to use a bow, it is Daenlin! He took Buffy on as an apprentice when she was a mere eight years old. I so hope Jericho likes Bravil.

Oh, and Buffy fully understands the attraction to those strong brave men in steel that help keep the wolves at bay. In her case, they represent everything she feels she is not.

Daenlin also gave Teresa some valuable lessons in Sirya, the ancient Bosmer art of archery. He also gave her much to think about...

Jericho's dream is to be a hero, and he views the Imperial Guards as hero's.
And well he was picked from the streets by a man in steel who gave Jericho a push to fulfilling his dream.

And you guys are right about Daelin,he accepted Jericho as a student after Jericho started crying when he first denied him. The first day...was well, I guess you can "eventful" The casualty; 9 Bows, a bottle of Skooma, the Counts hat, several windows, and a half eaten mutton.
Can't wait until tomorrow

Darian fumed the whole way from Anvil to the Imperial City and back again. If the deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is, he thought. I should have kept saving for a horse.

He met Velwyn Benirus at the appointed place. The two of them proceeded into danger.

“You lead from here,” Velwyn hissed once they got inside. “Hopefully we can make it to the basement without too much fighting.”

“Right,” said Darian. He drew his silver sword, prepared for battle. “Wait, what did you say?”

“You lead from here. I’ll follow.” Velwyn looked like he might swallow his tongue.

Darian stepped back out onto the porch. Velwyn followed.

“So,” said Darian. “Do you suppose it would be bad to handle this another day?”

Velwyn raised his face to the Gold Coast sun. “Who cares?”

Darian walked down onto the patchy, dead grass. Velwyn followed. “Want to go to Cheydinhal?” Darian asked.

“Did you hear a noise?” gasped Velwyn, staring back at the manor.

Darian took that as a yes.

Nordy was racing his way east again from Bravil when he heard something that made his blood freeze...

"Haylp meh!! Haylp meeeehh!!" Came the cry from the Black Horse Courier's courier...

"Hooo, there's ak girl in troubles...Best gets me spinach!!...Ak-ak-ak-aaahhh!!!..."

Punching the can from below, Nordy-Boy opened his mouth, the green stream landed in his mouth and his limbs comedically grew to massive proportions...

His feet spinning he launched himself at the commotion.

Three wolves snapped at the feet of the horse.

"Ooooh," cried the girl, "HAYLP MEEHHHH!!"

Nordy rushed into the fracas...With maracas...In Caracas...

The first wolf flew out of the brown-ish blur, shaved till it looked like a poodle...The second had been turned into a hearth rug...And the third came out spinning like a tyre which sped off screen, causing the many noises of chickens, cows, elephants and gregorian chanting to be heard.

The girl floated up in the air crying "Awwwww...My hero..."

Nordy replied, "Aw shucks...Alls in a day's work...Ak-Ak-Ak-Aaaah!!!"

He continued on...

xD omg my insides they hurt from laughing xD

@Grits o.O, wonder what that noise was, omg ghost! *runs away*

Here is a small excerpt from the first chapter of the Jericho fic

The Orc looked at Jericho with a rather hungry look. “You know, a handsome man like you will make a perfect husband for a adventure like me.”
Jericho felt his face turn red, while Nale just sighed.
“So what do you say little Imperial, after a hard days adventure, coming home to a handsome man like you and getting some comfort will be exactly what I need.” The Orc winked at Jericho.
Nale raised his voice, “The kid is with me!”
The Orc sighed, “Well…it was worth a shot.” he got up and headed for the door.

“Nale?”
“Yeah?”
“What does “getting some comfort” mean?”
Nale’s face turn bright red, “Nothing!”

Today in Oblivion my crew packed up and moved from the dying laptop to the new one. Everyone arrived safely. I tried out the default settings instead of the “your machine sucks” options, and it looks so much better! Everyone noticed that something was different.

Abiene pointed out that the circles under her eyes are now quite pronounced. Lildereth mentioned that her skin could be smoother. Darnand immediately checked his inventory to see if he picked up any interesting new spells. And Jerric tried to remove his pants.

I thought my children were demanding. No mods until I get the next update written! Good grief.

@Grits - I know how traumatic that can be, and I'm so glad that everyone made the move smoothly. And yes. . . another update for us Jerric (and the crew fans) would be most welcome. I need my Lili and Ulfe fix!

Congrats on the move to better hardware. I typically just take the hard drive out of my old box and put it in my new one when I get a new computer. If the new one has a faster hard drive, I copy it all over. If not, I typically leave it. Except of course for some programs that insist on being installed before they will run on the new box of course.

But with laptops that is not really an option. Unless there are external drive bays that will take a laptop drive? I never thought to look for those. I imagine you had to either copy everything to a thumb drive, or across your home network. If you have one.

You should be able to use the older computers hard drive as a external as long as you have the cable to connect it to a usb port on the new laptop.
I'm saying "should" though, because I do have my old computers hard drive as a external right now, but I don't remember if I could access the content of the old hard drive though :/

ROFL !! And can't wait for some more Jerric !!!

I'm pretty sure I'd have to extract the old hard drive using a hammer, which might cut down on its usefulness. My old laptop resembled a Happy Meal toy.

The new one is more of a Mighty Kids Meal toy. But it does run Oblivion!

SubRosa, I did use the shoe leather method of data transfer.

Ouch! Been there, done that too. In fact, we did that at work a few years back, when Daimler separated from Chrysler. We set up a sneaker network between the old Chrysler site and the new Daimler Financial site (which was actually being hosted in an EDS data center). The Daimler servers would be backed up onto a snap drive, then I'd take the drives out, put them in a locked case, take them to the new site and put them in another snap drive, and then the data was copied over onto the new servers. I even had bodyguards.

Hello everyone, I'm Lady Saga. And I am currently somewhere east of Anvil, exploring an area of Cyrodiil nobody else has been in awhile. I'm looking for lost Ayleid ruins, forts, caves, you name it.

I travel with a wood elf (unofficial companion) named Erthor. He gets pretty annoying, but I tolerate him because sometimes I need his assistance, especially in dungeons.

Yesterday Primrose found a poor, long lost dog who wanted to be reunited with his master. At first it did not sound like such a bad idea, until she learned that his master was a Daedric Prince (not to mention when she learned that he kept running into her and shoving her forward, blocking whatever path she wanted to take, and just all around being a major nuisance). But by then, she was stuck with the infernal mutt. Today she finally got his master's silly axe and returned it, and was never so thankful to get rid of that flea-bitten Daedric Dog.

Lady Saga, a warm welcome to you, Erthor and Renee!

And for PrimRosa, I hope you finally found something to put on your bare feet. Skyrim sounds entirely too cold for barefootin' it!

@SubRosa: heh...Daedric Dog. I love it. DnD used to have hell hounds that could spit fire! That would be a cool mod to have if it's possible.

@Acadian. Thank you kind sir. I'm looking forward to posting here.

I hope you guys and gals are ready, cuz I'm gonna be starting a LOT of topics here, especially in the Skyrim forums. I've had lots of ideas for Sky threads, but over at Beth it's like what's the point of posting them, if they'll be bumped off the front page in 10 minutes?

Bring it Saga!

Oh and the hounds that spit fire... While I was looking into making a wolf companion for someone here, there was already a skin in the Creation Kit for a fire wolf...

That's so wicked! I'd get that mod if I could.

I think you have to have a certain amount of posts before you can start threads. As soon as I can, I will start a Skyrim roleplaying ideas thread, in case there isn't one already. I've got several really cool ideas (none of which I've started yet).

I saw that too when I was making Nature Summoning. If it was not so completely out of scope of the mod, I would have included it. Then again, I suppose I could create a separate mod just it. Either as a summoning, or as a companion.




You only need about three or four posts, so you are probably there already. Go ahead and try.

Robert McWylde is currently shirking his duties as Knight-Commander of The Knights of The Nine by going a-slaughtering in dungeons Cave-ish, Ayelid ruin'd and Fort-esque, along the road from Imperial City to Cheydinhal...

I did start a journal thing with him...But it got sidetracked into something which approached epic and made me plan out the entire MQ with my KOTN lot...And almost led me to start writing it ("It's the Main Quest™ Jim, but not as you know it"...Weeeel, it's me! What would you expect!? ...) and therefore abandoning what I was doing before...Which would be bad for everyone...

So you're spared that...For now... ...

Is that McCoy?

*Raises eyebrow*...Fascinating...

...

SPEW !!! Spock was hilarious !!!

Never again.

Made meself a couple of speed fortifiers today, both increase speed 30 points for 30 seconds (only needs restoration of 50 to cast...)...So my speed now goes to 150-ish... ...As a wise car once said...Ka-Chow!!...

Aaamywho...

Innit weird how you start playing a game and then the whole family starts again?...The son made a new char...Aaaand now the wife's back doing her Breton again...She's made 11000 potions... ...Wow...

Missy's resisting though...She's on the Lego Batman... ...

How did I miss these last few posts?!? Thoughts of Sir Robert using his spells to boost into warp drive as he and the crew of the Enterprise KOTN zoom around combating galactic Daedra Lords quite tickles me!

Spock was a Dunmer, didyaknow?

11K potions certainly warrants one of these:

Having prayed at the Great Chapel of Arkay, McWylde left Cheydinhal and headed once more towards Imperial City.

Skirting the edge of the lake surrounding the Imperial City, and having disposed of a bandit and a minotaur, then several wolves and bears along the way...He spotted a cave to one side of the road and found himself sporting with some goblins in Shinbone Cave...

The Commander is now generally on his way to Bravil to train his Mysticism up a bit...

Huzzah!..

Say hi to Kud-Ei in Bravil!

McWylde was waylaid by Marauders at Fort Alessia...So he upped his sneak considerably by making them wish they hadn't started...

As a bit of a shocker the Commander was informed that the Dragon Armour, comissioned for him by Chancellor Ocato was now ready and would he now pick it up please...Thank you....

Having done so and dropped it off at the Priory, McWylde then went back to Bravil and got his training...The then headed north once more, prayed at the shrine of Zenithar and the went to investigate the cave nearby they call Veyond...And tried to find the back of it...WHAHEY!!...

Is that the Argonian cultist one or the Bandit one?...I forget...I did a lot last night and I was half-asleep!... ...

Aaaamywho...Much gladness to be back in Cyrodiil...I much prefer it to Skyrim...It feels a much nicer game...Love it!...

Robert McWylde has spent much of today going between wherever he's been exploring in the North West of Skingrad - Echo Cave, Talwinque, Nonagulo (Umm...Methinks that's spelt wrong...)...And after clearing out the bandits that infest Talwinque I found myself reminded of one of the big things that I hate about Skyrim...

WHERE THE BLOODY HELL ARE THE FEATHER SPELLS?!!... ...

Ah the joys of spending just a few seconds casting spell after spell so that in the end I can make the short Fast Travel from here to there carrying over 1500 weight...Ah, that is another reason why I love Oblivion and only play Skyrim...

From the desk of Sir Rugrat gro-Shurgak, son of Lord Rugdumph, and Knight of the White Stallion:

Greetings my friends and compatibles! Today marks a suspicious occlusion here at the White Stallion Lodge. After much begging and a fair amount of gorging, the fair Mazoga has finally conscripted to make an honest orc of me. Can you believe it? Me, secure within the unenviable bonds of parsimony! I can’t even begin to tell you how excruciated I am at the thought. I have been flouting on a cloud since that maleficent ‘yes‘ expunged from her fair lips.

Everything seems a bit more vivisected today! The sky is brighter, the flowers are more odious. The taste of food is simply splenetic! I honestly don’t think anything could spoil my mood today. I am positively filled with effluvium... like I just want to burst with joy and raptor!

I simply wished to appraise you all of the conduction I now find myself in. I promise to keep you all upbraided as our plans for the wedding regress. I bemoan...

HAH!!... ...

Excrable work my friend!!... ...








(You know what I mean right? ...Excellent...Just in case... )

Robby the Wylde One sounds like he's keeping the Skingrad merchants well-stocked with the heavy labors of his dungeoneering.

Way to go, Rugrat! 'Zoga's a great girl!

Buffy's kicking around the Gold Coast and meeting new friends on the RP forum as they sort out an expedition to explore the ruins beneath Sutch.

BAHAHAHA!

stacy killed a certain prison mate she once knew...she enjoyed it very much

Is that the DB questline thingy?...

Never once done the DB...I'm too Good™ me... ... ...

I have all but once (the first playthrough) killed Lucien and stolen the hood when he's made his visit...I tend to go to Skingrad, kill Glarthir, thus inviting the visitation...Gets rid of two annoyances in one go!...Booyah!!...

Welcome btw!!...Enjoy!!...

You've managed to kill Lucien? I've only tried with a couple of chars., but never succeeded. How did you do it? Just curious.

Well there is quite a technique to it. First you just stab, stab, stab, stab, stab. Then you stab, stab, stab, stab.

...Indeed so...Have sword, will smite... ...

But he always slips out the door after making his 'debut appearance'. He's way too quick, as I recall. Eradi~Kate (my vampire Breton who was doing Dark Brotherhood for those of you who do not know her) also spent quite a bit of time trying to kill Lucien after he made his ultimate directive (whatever it's called).... Lucien did not fight back, instead, he would just run away from what I remember.

Stab quicker?

I'd make a super-awesome sword and smack him with it. He died. Then I'd reload and do the mission all the way up to the one in the house with the guests. I don't know why, but I loved that mission.

Nah, he disappears quick enough, but it's more chameleon than invisibility...So if you don't get him with the initial smacking...

Weird that...I've never had any trouble, once I figured it out...

, agression is not tolerated on the forums did you know ?

( if you dont like : stab! stab! stab! then get an axe and : HACK N' SMASH HACK N' SLASH )

Jerric met Lucien after a quest bug gave him a murder (I speak of Jerric the PC Edition). He had no trouble cutting Lucian down in his tracks once the conversation freeze mode ended. No chasing required.

Lol. I can see Jerric being unhappy about being woken in the night by some idiot talking about assassins. WHAM, back to bed!

Really?... ...Damn... ...

You sure?... ...



Ediiiiiiit-ah!!...

This here is what I did to Lucien in my story...Made I laugh at the time... ...


Oh, and lest people suggest we went a little off topic...Us?...Surely not!...


Robert McWylde is still filling in his map, west of Kvatch...He is, in fact, not all that far from Fort Sutch at the mo... ...See ye there then, lads and lassies!!... ...

Hello everyone!

Some of you here know my character Lothran very well already. But for those of you who don´t, here´s an introduction of him.
--------------

When imperial troops went into Morrowind to make it a province to the empire, Lothran did not like the lack of resistence from his fellow kinsmen. He hated the empire and what they did to his land so he decided something had to be done, but what? There was no point fighting a guerilla war in Morrowind as the numbers of soldiers would only increase. No, the best way is to take a stab at its core; in Cyrodiil!

Said and done. After a few months Lothran found himself in the heart of the empire and although he did like the land, he knew he had a job that needed to be done. He made his way past Cheydinhal without entering the town and after a night with heavy rain he finally reached the Imperial City. Soaked as he was he entered the first inn he came to, the All-Saints Inn.
He ordered up a few mugs of ale and sat down at an empty table, hoping to dry up a bit. He usually did not drink too much but he was now wet, tired and somewhat angry about the whole thing. If the empire had left his land alone he wouldn´t have been in this foreign land in the first place!

As it turned out, Lothran had one too many drinks that night. His tongue started to slip and he began boasting about his "true, heroic reason for coming to Cyrodiil", that he "wanted to bring it all down!"
A guard who sat not too far away heard every word the strange Dunmer said and before he really understood what happened, Lothran found himself in a cold, dark dungeon. And to top it off he was still wet! But at least his new clothes were dry, the clothes of a prisoner.
As he sobered up, Lothran began to think about his situation. What could he ever hope to accomplish here? His first night in a strange land and he was already in prison!

As he was slowly beginning to abandon his quest for imperial destruction, he could hear footsteps approaching his cell...

mirocu, what a delightful bit of Lothran lore from his early days! I knew of his unhappy arrival in Cyrodiil, but not the details of being imprisoned.
