    Well, here I am...

    Name: Eien Noshi (female)

    Race: Half-Breed

    Age: 64

    Description: Quite slender, yet well-built, height: 1.65, dark hair except for two white stripes. Inexpressive and quite rude. A natural for Throwing but has no formal education in that area... or any other.

    Background: Outcast. Having been driven out of Tarant for being a half-breed (Half-Orc father, Half-Elf mother) she spent most of her adult life in the woods of Arland, a much more merciful region. She is a Seer, but so far she hasn't been able to interpret her visions. Doomed to death for learning the occult water rituals, she sets out to try to do something good before her time is out. And so she heads for Tarant...

    You can always say that I miss herd the shot and it was DE shooting the bartender for not giving him another drink, and I was paying so much attention to the guards that I missed him running up the street ahead of them. The last thing he said was he was asking the bartender for a drink and checking his gun.

    Or should I say it, since your sleeping right now.
    I like that idea. Wait, no I’ll let DE decide After all it’s his guy.

    But if I did I’d write this…

    It was only once the guards had passed that I started to wonder “was that shot I herd from up the street or in the bar.â€￾ I moved to look inside seeing the bartender dead and what people where there hiding behind/under tables and chairs. I soon moved to following the guards I once avoided to see what was going on and just who they where chasing.

    Maybe i should just re-write my post, so theres no drunken man flying out the tavern door? that would fix a lot i think.

    I'm kind of inclined to let what happens happen. I don't want to be the dictatorial leader of this campaign, rather I'd like it to "lead itself" so to speak. If there are guards after me, then great, let them arrest me - good twist of the plot if you ask me. :)

    As long as it's good and has relevance to the story, write!

    Anyway, I know by the way I'm writing things may be a bit unclear. Simply, this is what has happened to Trevor during this autumn Tarant night.

    1) Drinking away at the Boiling Point pub in the outskirts of the Boil.

    2) Some invincible bastard slaughters the entire clientele, save old Trev, at the blink of an eye, and then disappears just as suddenly.

    3) Scared and confused like shit, Trevor hurries out of the Boil over Garrilon bridge.

    4) Ends up at Grant's tavern - guess the urge for a strong drink got the better of him. Well, in his confused state, I guess I can't blame him, can I? :)


    I'm really a newbie to this RP:ing business...

    It's fine by now, but it gets a bit confusing at times, doesn't it?

    Nothing could be more true; until now I never fully understood the importance of a proper discussion thread. :)

    This section hasn't been this active in years. Can you believe that?

    Still, I kind of prefer third person...

    If it's difficult for two people to think alike, imagine four. ^_^.
    I don't really know, I think I'd never checked on this section of the site. But it seemed appealing and so here I am... Or here we are!
    You can go on with third person, it doesn't really affect the story, the important thing is being consistent.

    Bad news everyone. Im leaving for Italy in a few days. However, I know i will have computer access at one point, and in the city we have rented an apartment, there are numerous internet cafés. So, hopefully, I'll only be gone a few days at a time. I *really* dont want to kill this thread, especially since I fought *so* hard to start it:)p). so... yeah...

    Oh, damn! Ehem... I mean...
    Well, Italy's a beautiful place, but the Internet cafés are said to be expensive. I say we work as hard as we can during these days and then, when the plot thickens, we slow down. That should allow you to keep up with us.
    *big sigh* I hope someone likes my suggestion. As regards me, I'm on winter holidays right now, so I've got a full month to devote to the story.
    I'm beginning to worry, why do I feel we'll miss you? It's not like we've known you for so long! Guys like you can be really annoying, you know! >_<.

    Damn… I hope you won’t be gone too much, we Just got the team together.

    I think I over did it a bit on the door, but that’s how it came out. That place must be in real need of repairs if I can just disintegrate not just the door but the whole doorway like that. I just meant to blow it apart.

    Woodchips for everybody!

    Baal: yeah, i think you overdid it too :p

    I guess I'll have more information at our first stop (somewhere in germany). We'll see about the internet cafés. But until I leave: the search for avalon continues!! ...no, wait...

    [edit]: i might have to kill/kidnap my character :eek:

    I should have rephrased that and said I exploded the doorway into many little burning pieces that’s more along the line that I meant.

    I just hope there’s a lot of water on hand. No bunny... you evaporated your little water bowl.

    Sorry! ;_;
    And Baal, I'm not a half-orc, I'm just a half-breed (half-half-elf, half-half-orc). But it's ok, you may not have seen me properly with all that smoke. ^_^.

    Hmmmm... We could put you to sleep. Not down, just to sleep... And we could do a quest for you. Of course, you can always kidnap yourself... But we'll see what to do when we get there, all right? ^_^.

    I knew I was forgetting something... I'm sorry for posting again!
    I'm not really sure, but it seems I'm with the biggest guy while you're busy with the other (who is equally tough, now that I think about it) and so I thought: "what the hell, let's act Kushinada-fashion and make a little sacrifice."
    Then again, I won't do that if... *SPOILER* someone else decides my fate for me.
    :p That wasn't really a spoiler. But hey, I think we're doing quite fine, although there's plenty to improve. I can't really say since it's my first adventure. I'd like to hear your opinion about it, guys, Baal and Vyenna. (Now that I think of it, I've never checked if you'd done this before, Baal.)
    Dark Elf, do not think I don't want to hear what you have to say. It's just I'm really afraid of your telling me
    (But as you are the most experienced in this matter, I really want to know what you think of our amateur work.)

    Given that my only RP experience prior to this would be The Philosophikal Debate which was years ago, I wouldn't call myself any more experienced than the rest of you...

    Regardless, I think we're doing great! All of you! :)

    ... as for the vampires being inhumanly tough... the priest we're fighting, he's a half-breed right? So he doesn't have to be as hard to kill as the one I encountered, who we can say was a True Vampire or something equally gay. To kill those, we should need some special artifact, or whatever... which is kind of what Trev thought when he went to the Panarii temple.

    Ok, so heres the deal: I'm leaving in a few hours :eek:

    I am kidnapping myself. The plan is to be kidnapped, leaving you to fight the other guy. Then, when i reach the next pc a few days from now, I'll tell you what its like to be held captive by a vampire :p. Then you can quest and practically do whatever you want. After that again, I might return as some kind of über-evil badass villain, trying to kill you all or something. Of course, for this to work, you have to keep the thing alive!!

    Nope… I’ve never done this before.

    _____________________________________________________________________

    Well bunny if you wanted to kill your self I just gave you the perfect way, just say you died in that.

    DE I think the next one is yours.

    Now the question is, is the light from a room or a fissure in the street above. Just don’t say the vampire survived and escaped through the hole.

    :D Now that attack was overkill! :peace:
    I’ll "try" not to do that again.

    How can I say I died if I'm dead, Baal? :p
    OK, I died!
    ^_^.
    And that's the end for me!
