Okay less jokingly I would be willing to lift Nye up to Lordship, though I'd be interested in seeing how we'd work that out and how Phil feels about Saul moving up.

I'm not feeling it. It has been a while since I've RPed (or written anything substantial), so I'd rather avoid the spotlight for now.

Alright, I'll admit to being excited and will modify the growth on Nye accordingly as I figure out what being a Lord means in this game by comparison to typically.

5: Robin (Philosophically she works really well, but party role wise she's a terrible lord.)
6: Erika
7: Allen

Heh, I'm kinda wondering how party roles play into action to determine Lord-quality. Especially to the point that Himura, the expatriate thief from Kinehdin, is somehow more suitable as a Lord than the local knight-Robin (even though she is an archer and happens to be female hiding behind all her black armor for anonymity.)

It's all moot anyhow since I guess Nye is our Lord. =3 (Congrats.)

Basically you really don't want one of your tanks to be a Lord. Because Lords tend to be lose conditions (if they die you lose) putting a character whose job it is to get hit as a lose condition, regardless of how tanky they are, seems like a really bad idea.

First post is up, it'll likely be some introductions, getting a feel for party dynamic and then a couple days of travel time skipped almost directly into the first combat scenario. Oswald's stats will be up along with all the enemy stats when the map is posted.

Overcast · 03-10-2016, 02:12 PM

Made a slight assumption about the state of Kinehdin and if I'm off the mark feel free to tell me so.

Menarker · 03-10-2016, 04:42 PM

Thinking of not having my characters join up until the first battle. If they'd approach Morgan and Co, they'd probably do so on the basis that non-Wodanaz citizens are parking themselves on the fringes of Wodanaz territory (and inevitably causing a scene).

Double points involved if they heard rumors about a certain mage with a rather colorful Laconic Curse going around recruiting people who so happens to be on their territory and they decided to investigate.

Himura: *To Robin* "I'd have half a guess that mage would be from Kinedhin". I heard of someone matching that description somewhat back in my prior home. How many curse-bearers does one expect to see in an isolated territory separated from land and sea? Before it all came crashing down anyhow, hehee~."

I'll be honest, writing Morgan is way more fun than it should be. Also, "The locked door" refers to a door in the palace that no one has been able to open and no other way into the room has been found. It's believed that it's the Princess' room and that she has some kind of magic lock on the room.

Also I think I'm nicknaming Overcast's duo Nitro (NyeDro) and Menarker's Robin Hood. Phil doesn't have one cause the only name I could think of was AllenSaw. I'm disappointed in me too.

Anybody have a good idea for getting Saul & Allen into this party? I've got some vague "treasure attracts more treasure, surely there's something valuable in the capital" ideas, but I'm having trouble not being too contrived. He's pretty much heard, "Nah, we ain't getting nothing," which is suspicious (because why the armed escort) but not really a lead on obtaining Real Ultimate Power™. Maybe Allen could instigate something...

Loan me some of your brains.
