Anthanes might find out of a way but he'll need the help of one of the healers -- he's more focused on the art of using magic to kill stuff.

Hey Dantrag, when you get the chance talk to Falx.. try to get him to join the mages side of things, but have like a cover up or something.
Falx would join if he was under the influence that it was a noble cause. Maybe pretend your a Knight or something O_o
Oh and Falx doesn't know his name still so... I'm not sure if it should be revealed yet. Haha, yes I know, Falx will call himself Traveller, and that can turn into his villinous name?!

A Knight that was with our group back in Cyrodiil. Er, where the original RP characters (such as Sel, Celia, Serene, Fenris, and Jonacin etc) had met. Long time ago. Back when the mage had released some demons onto the city and stuff.
Falx got pushed off or something (can't remember now) by the mage, and our characters assumed he was dead, so our characters continued on... Turns out he's still alive..

Jul 22 2005, 01:47 AM
Yea, look for the very first Mystery Unleashed thread.. I was the second poster!!!
Falx was a Knight in the Imperial Legion as MerGirl said wonderfully but "died" at the mountain pass trying to kill the mage by throwing himself and the mage off the cliff...
Didn't work.. Now I'm gonna become evil maybe for a little bit

Megil Tel-Zeke
Jul 22 2005, 06:58 PM
well alright even if there are plenty of cliffravcers that has to be a niche for every animal. and I don't see how a cliff racer can be a pollinator or as such. In fact I can't think of any unmodded morrowind creatures that are herbivorous, so plant life would be zip to null in morrowind. And there would be no need for flowers O.o since there are no insects to be drawn to them to drink their nectar and pollinate them. and since there are no flowers you wouldn't have angiosperms. so Morrowind's tree life would be mostly pines and giant mushrooms since they spread through spores. O.o So I find the morrowind ecosystem unstable and unviable everything would end up dieing. Also if you look at sea life... there are only slaughterfish -.-, i'm sorry but nowhee wiht such a large ocea would you find such a lack of variation in sea life, and what would slaughterfish eat? other slaughterfish -.- cannibalistic organisms of morrowind sigh.
as such I find that in the RP there should be some added variety to the type of organisms that inhabit the island. Gulls are also platniful and very territorial, so i don't see why a flock of them couldn't fight of cliffracers. with dragons it understood since they are large and solitary and slow to reproduce. so with that i end my point, whether or not you agree I don't really care.

i was hoping that in the next one that not everybody felt obliged to join the good side and all. it gets boring when two people are bad guys and one of them is gone for a week ...
also i'm not for closing this rp but perhaps speeding it up just a tad
also also i no longer care if osano is spotted and fails his mission for arcyakt etc. but not right now, later today perhaps

Insects and such can pollinate, i just don't think the devs found i t worth the time to make miniscule bee models or something.

And in case you didn't notice there ARE alot of giant mushrooms. Essepcially around pelagiad/Suran. And few trees.
And Cliffracers are rather nasty, they have that powerful beak and nasty whip-tail. A normal bird would be no match for whatever freaky repto-Avian the Cliffracer is.

does anyone else have to log in whenever they leave the site then come back? even if you check "remember me"?

How about when we finally finish this one, killing Arcyatk, then we finish it off by starting an in between history bit. So Mergirl would put Celia went to healer school. And then dantrag puts he follows mergirl there and they marry. Just in more detail. Then in a way we cater for both peoples wants. The same Rp, but a new plot line. Then we start another RP where we all meet up again years later, because Azura has another task for us. Or there is a competition of all the differnet parts of what we do. Then we find out it is a group thing and we team up again to win. This lets any othres who want to join be in the rival group from us. It doesn't mean either side is good. Whaddya think?

'Anthanes, shortly after his exploits with the group, was caught by the Imperial Legion for the many many many members of them he had killed. He is currently somewhere at the end of the very long death row at Fort Hawkmoth, Ebonheart.'

Jul 23 2005, 08:06 PM
Hmm...Assuming he gets paralyzed and the RP is over by the time I get back:
'The Paralysis cast on Anthanes by Arcyakt did not wear off. No magic could restore it and the Battlemage's body stopped aging, though he was still alive but unable to talk or make any kind of action. He was declared practically dead and is currently on display in a private room in the Mournhold Museum, where mages from all over Tamriel come to observe the case and find some way to remove the paralysis - none succesful. For some time now, the case Anthanes has been a popular subject amongst the empire's magical populace.'
Until he starts moving again that is. which shall happen once I git back.

Could work.. But I still see this RP as a little bit boring, due to that the plot is so easy. Stop Arcyakt, by killing him or something so he cant soul trap people and use their souls to make a army. And over the time we have needed to throw in Werewolves and other creatures just to keep it alive, and I dont think it should be that way..
So if we should make a new one, after we finish this.. with or without these characters. The one who makes and comes up with the idea of the plot should make it a little more 'advanced' then just a evil mage escapes from Oblivion to make a army and take control over the world..
Make it more like a real RPG Campaign..
BobV
Jul 23 2005, 08:26 PM
Perhaps something more step-based? IE, rather than finding Arcyakt immediately, we find out of a group of bandits that are becoming very brutal, even attacking cities just to kill people it seems. After defeating them we find a sorcerer who leads them, who has evidence on him being under employ of a necromancer.
Then we get attacked by a bunch of undead sent by the necromancer. When we find and defeat the necromancer, we find out that he was working under the employ of a powerful vampire. We track + kill this vampire and find out that he was bound to do the bidding of Arcyakt. Only then we start tailing Arcyakt.. We might also want to add some more detail to the villain. A good article about villain creation can be found
here .

Yeah, too straightforward of a goal to make an interesting plot.

Though I
like the randomness, because that's what life is all about. But, I agree that the plot needs some working on...
What do you mean, 'make it more like a RPG campaign'? What is considered a RPG campaign?

Strict/complex rules like in D&D or something?
BobV
Jul 23 2005, 08:30 PM
Nope, more with a twisting plot that ends up with [insertanyoneinvolvedhere] saving the world, but not really seeming like that at first start. Neverwinter Nights might serve as an example in a pinch.
Fuzzy Knight
Jul 23 2005, 08:37 PM
Well.. BobV, your idea is something more of a more advanced campaign RP.. Because it might take several days of gaming before we find out the main plot.. For example..
Some pirate's outside the west coast of Vvardenfell have been raiding boats that have been transporting expensive stuff like diamonds and stuff like that and they seem to be quite powerfull, but only after gold and other wealthy things..
We meet up, and we get send to what seems like their hideout. We kill them but we dont find out anything so we think its just a random group of pirates. It soon happen again, and as last time it seems like they have a good taste for diamonds etc. We find what seems to be their leader, who gets all taunting and intimidating about the classical
'You dont know what your dealing against' etc.
After a while, we find out that they have been collecting diamonds, rubies etc. for a powerfull Battlemage who is going to use these 'magical' stones to enchant a old godlike artifact. And of course he needs souls, and soon small raids on important people of elite warriors who manage to kill and trap the souls of these powerful men and women...
We start understanding the real deal, and get summoned again by the current leader of Morrowind or something. That we need to stop this crazy man before he has enough power to challange the whole Morrowind...
And out of that much complicated stuff might need to be done, we might find out the lad is immune to magic and we need to collect scrolls and artifacts powerfull enough to beat this Battlemage and we come in many small ecounters of his minions;)
And in the end we manage to find him, where a epic battle takes place and we might win or lose. Or just retreat finding out we need more experiance

Something like that..

Er, isn't that just a plot twist, though? (Never played NWN, so I do not know how that works..)
Not quite sure what Fuzzy Knights is trying to say, except maybe a more realistic villain and perhaps a more interesting plotline.

EDIT: But, Fuzzy, your example sounds almost like the plot this RP sort of originally had.
Evil dude, we find out evil dude's exploits, find artifacts/source of power/whatever, then have a head-on final battle with evil dude.

Yeah.. thats because I thought of the same, but only that this would be a totally different deal, where we didn't need to throw in Werewolves on a clifftop to keep things going and meeting up with so much that has little to do with the quest. But it was Hukai who started it - and he left, I dont know about his plans but of course that ruined the very base line and ideas he had..

I prefer it when people spontaneously embark on quests because of some personal importance rather than getting asked/commanded to do so. But that's just a personal preference.
