    Muro - I sent you a PM a while back with a list of ideas I pulled from various places. I'll resend it.

    The inspector’s madness had gone away, along with his recent memory...

    So does that mean Aerex has no memory of the events that just occurred?

    Just the last few minutes or so :)

    Actually, since I am a happy NPC, Muro you should just fiat the surivial or death from our evil monster.

    Ahem! I would like to apologise for my lack of activity! I have been on holidays for the last week so haven't been able to get to a computer.
    I'm going away again for the next two days, soon, but once i'm back from there, i'll be back in full force! I promise!

    Then did Wulfhere, taking his sword in hand, journey forth to the wars of the Laurel Kingdoms.  Striving boldly for his Liege Lord, beneath the banner of the Aten Sun, he did swear a mighty oath to return in about a week or so. 

    Onward, to Glory! 

    (Actually, I'm setting out tomorrow morning, but I'm pretty busy getting ready)

    Welcome back (almost) SE!

    Have fun and see you soon, Wulf! (may you slay your SCA adversaries!)

    SCA? Be nice to Wanderer! He is a citadelian mind you! ;)

    Game to be continued, one of two ways. In OOC, if you just want the details on the prisoners, 'treasures', and monastery notes, or we can continue "exploring" the monastery in RP. Let me know. Chap II will soon end. You will all level up(!!), and take a break. There are lots of RP's getting started in the Forum right now, so this may be perfect timing! Then, soon, we can begin plotting and scheming on Chap III...Homecomings.

    I also wanted to thank(!!) Maggot, AG, and Moon for their great NPC'ing, Wand for jumping in (and down  :P) full throttle, and the Stalwarts, the Adventurers-Upon-Return,(!!) without whom, none of this would be possible.  :up:

    I'm ready to end this if everyone else is, so long as we get closure on 1) getting the monks back into the monastery, and 2) speak with Aeth before he returns to being plain ol' dead.
  11. Re: OOC: Back in the Day...

    #571
    I'm ready for the chapter to end as well.  I'm all for making sure the 2nd one happens, if we have to bury him under some pool of holy water...

    I'm willing to take a break for a bit, and I know that Dujek wouldn't mind being able to spend a couple of days in a tavern, he's starting to smell of post traumatic now.
  12. Re: OOC: Back in the Day...

    #572
    I think we should wrap Chap II up, and dole out the XP and level up stuff. No real need to RP out searching the monastary for lewtz, disposing of bodies and the like. One nice 'this is what you get post' ought to do. We will likely take a while to divide up the spoils...remember the bandit camp?
  13. Re: OOC: Back in the Day...

    #573
    I'm good either way.  Talia will only be out for a couple minutes, so she can help.

    --the AuR have spoken.

    Forthcoming will be an all-encompassing OOC post detailing what you defeated and killed, what you find in the monastery, Alzamus' goodies, surprising prisoners(!), and other stuff! It will be accompanied by a summarized RP post, which will include, among other things, closure on the mysterious fates of Jjuldae and Henge :P

    --Chap II RP will stay open for a while, I am sure Moruz for example, will feel the need to emote on his snapped and broken ouzala  :P, as well as something he may soon find.

    Vorodon may feel the need to interact with a particular prisoner, as will Vee, Etc...

    you dont have to post, but feel feel free to, during this end-game ebb.

    --You will all gain levels!! some may jump 2!! (the rogues have a good shot). Before next chapter begins we will do a full inventory listing, add and catalogue new skills (feats), abilities, and stuff for your characters, and do any necessary rolls and potential 'class switches'.

    Then, my idea is to split the party up 3 ways for Chap III (more to come on this, thoughts welcomed!)

    thats about it for now.

    So Muro, with the 'main' AuR adventure taking a break, think we can give the side-quester among us a chance to prod some RPing? I'm sure the rest of the group would love to see what evil things you've got in store for a poor lonely Cleric of Trigu.

    NUDGE!

    I am hoping that the AuR will make a triumphant return!

    Woo!
  23. Re: OOC: Back in the Day...

    #583
    When will the next chapter start?  :up:

    I didn't want to be the last one to say...

    We're ready!

    sweet!

    I Need to kick around a few ideas on how to make Chap III unique, and need to move into my new house (woot!)

    my time here will be severely limited for about 1-2 weeks more. But lets say...April 15th, we are off!!!!

    I would like to try running 3 simultaneous "campaigns", breaking up the massive party we have :)

    it may sound like a lot of work, but it may actually be easier. I can do shorter posts for 3 small groups, at different times, in lieu of gigantic posts covering a dozen people at a pop.

    So, as always, I welcome your ideas...for example,

    1) which characters want to match up with which other characters?
    2) how heavy do you wish to go with dice and mechanics/logistics, as opposed to free flowing RP? (now that you'll be slightly higher levels)
    3) I forgot what I was going to ask with 3...if anyone can think of a 3rd general question, let me know  :P

    let me say this though...WOOT!!!!! (I am getting motivated and psyched again!)

    so, assuming Shadoweagle's hiatus continues, we have

    1) Scrasamax
    2) Ria Hawk
    3) Wulfhere
    4) valadaar
    5) Dozus
    6) Echomirage
    7) Wanderer
    8) Pariah
    9) Chaosmark
    10) Siren no Orakio (if memory serves)
    11) Strolen (Woot!)
    12) CP(?)

    if I missed anyone, its only because I am addled at the moment.

    1) Aerex likes Talia and is buddies with several folk, especially Vorodon.  He does not like Vee.  So going with or without those folks would see interesting results either way.
    2) I like the way we've been going, but a few more mechanics might be more "olde skool".
  27. Re: OOC: Back in the Day...

    #587
    Vorodon is going to want to return to town to settle matters with a certain lieutenant... If Aerax is willing to come along, he'd appreciate it.

    Aethelstan should take off, heading off into the sunset until he is needed for another 'cameo' appearance, sometime in the future. 

    "Who was that dead man?"  "I dunno, but he left this silver flower behind..."
  28. Re: OOC: Back in the Day...

    #588
    oh crap, this reminds me! I still have to drown you in loot and XP from the monastery!

    will do this weekend!
  29. Re: OOC: Back in the Day...

    #589
    IT LIVES!  Woot!  I want Talia to end up with Aerex, because I think I'd like to persue that possibility some more...
  30. Re: OOC: Back in the Day...

    #590
    Kadarin, being concerned with his skin, and the aquisition of power (in that order) will likely join with the biggest group - depending on where they are going...

  31. Re: OOC: Back in the Day...

    #591
    ok, this is just brainstorming on my part. Feel free to ignore...

    Vee and Moruz set off east and south, towards Nimz, Vee's birthplace, while simultaneously weaving their way closer to the Sea, where Moruz dreams of catching a passing caravel to his own desert home eventually.

    Talia and Aerex head off to Jantir, capital city of the laconic, dying Empire. Aerex because he is from there, Talia because she has never seen the "big city", and also dreams of finding her wayward father, who was supposedly from Jantir.

    Vorodon heads back to Ganse, a reckoning on his mind...

    okay, Kadarin, Echo's new character, Wanderer's new character, Siren's new character, Strolen's new character (woot!) and good ol' Dujek need to be either split up amongst the 3 "parties"...or....go their own way...or...create their own parties which others can latch on to...or...

    *thinking*

    Sounds like some good motives to me. :up:

    Bum-bum-bummm~ I think I know where Adan should be, sending a PM to ze Muro.


    In any case, as long as I get to throw /someone/ in jail, I'm happy. ;)

    *gasp* Could this mean.. another lawman?!  A potential lawful good friend for Aerex?  This should complicate things thoroughly. :twisted:
  35. Re: OOC: Back in the Day...

    #595
    Especially considering his chaotic neutral pseudo-girlfriend.  Well, assuming he ever makes a move.
  36. Re: OOC: Back in the Day...

    #596
    For, uhm, some values of 'lawman'. Some very.. interestingly defined values of lawman.
    Edit:
    For the record, Free-flowing RP = teh w1nz0rz.
  37. Re: OOC: Back in the Day...

    #597
    Because I think I still have his finger, and know I have his eye, Dujek'll be heading with the other heavily scarred party member.

    Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to the desert and Nimz I go!

    Dramatis Personae

    Group #1. Leaving the scene of the monastery slaughter, the thief, the mage, the warrior, the necromancer, and the albino head east along the Great Escarpment's ridge, taking the worst Father Winter has to offer them, making their way eventually, south-by-south-east, toward's far-off Nimz, and the rest of the sprawling lands of the Empire. After finding and freeing the imprisoned and cantankerous Agaroy Zelmundt, back at the monastery, Vee's mind is clouded with new information regarding the elusive K'tonian culture, which he has devoted his life to studying. Moruz, stoic as ever, only dreams of returning to the deserts of his homeland, while Dujek and Kadarin are preoccupied with their own, respective newfound powers of arcana and growing confidence...

    Vee Keykold
    Moruz- (MIA)
    Dujek
    Kadarin
    Mouse



    Group #2.  Finding the corpse of Bross the Volgottor in the bowels of the monastery, sends Vorodon into a bit of a rage, thinking of the lovely Maegla, and her unborn baby back in Ganse. Talia, who wishes to find her lost father, and Aerex, who yearns to return to Jantir, agree to accompany the half-ogre back to Ganse, for a reckoning...at the expense of the city's reprehensible cityguard, particularly one, Lieutenant Hepple Farax. They plan as they travel. Not quite the "Quest-To-End-All-Quests", but sometimes the greatest adventures begin with the humblest of goals...

    Vorodon
    Talia the Bladedancer
    Aerex Matare



    Group #3. On the road to Ssembra...Tristan, brooding as always, comes across another worshipper of Trigu, one Adan, an equally complicated and dangerous man. The two bond rather quickly, and agree to travel together, lessening the dangers they may face on the wild, rain-choked, windswept roads. Heading south tothe wondrous and mysterious city-state of Ssembra, home of Larnassa, the Split-Lipped Queen. The same  city where the famous Symposium takes place once every three years,a gathering of hundreds of priests, monks, paladins, and holy men of countless religions, who come together to amicably discuss and debate faith and doctrine in this unique environment.

    Adan
    Tristan



    yet to be determined posse...

    Wanderer- MIA
    Meow- EchoMirage
    Strolen- Swore he'd play! (:))
    Cap- He Who Dwells In Shadow...?

    everyone gained a level, and everyone has lots of new junk...

    Me'thinks we may need a group-chat again before we begin playing to determine two things, in regards to which, I have already received opposing views from several of you.

    1) level/AC/HP mechanics. Hard-core old school...OR...more flowing? (so far Dozus voted Olde Skool, and Siren voted Free-Flowing)
    2) loot/stuff (no one knows what they have...sigh  :P)

    I tend to value roleplay over mechanics, but I'll go with either.  I wants to plaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
