Ok I thought we should make it official and start the info threads up.
Question 1: So this story seems a little lighter ( funnier) than DI was if this is the case for everyone then I will make the bad guys act accordingly.
Suggestions? and are you ready for the first bad guy yet? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devil.gif" alt="" />
i think the first bad guy can make the group come together.....it could be an idea...
I actually am going to TRY and get out of here, at least for a little bit.
maybe the first bad guy should wait before the toenail gang thingy is solved?
well we need some kind of interaction between characters....
You all finger it out and let me know when you are prepared to handle some real evil RAR <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />
Well I'm on a mission to recruit some poeple, I need volunteers to be my contacts. The quest we are supposed to do has something to do with the evil that has allready been spoken of, but it has grown larger than initially expected.
So my suggestion, some of us group allready, my party to solve a quest, but we can't solve it since it has grown to big. So then we need to get help, get stronger as the true greatness of the evil begins to get unfold.
well you could always ask my character to join you...when he returns too the inn that is...
Viper wrote about me recruiting several ppl, We've supposely agreed to meet in this inn.
that was to make the story more 'tight' Dragh, otherwise it might have taken too long with accidental meetings
yeah I agree viper, I posted this because we need soem volunteers to be the other contacts <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
Not me because my character likes to be alone, he'll join when he'll have no other choice <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
my last post will be edited, I was unable to finish it due to lack of time
Sorry
i'm kinda confused as to what on earth is happening all over the place. I won't post until I get a clear view of the situation again
same here....where are all the characters at the moment?..
I'm outside the Inn playing the guitar
I'm inside, drunk. I'm not sure where Jolie is now though. Was he inside with me or outside with Carrie? Maybe I should edit my post a bit....? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
I posted that he was outside, since it has been posted before and after me
I have edited my post quite a bit, and hope it clears things up a bit better.
Tell me if I should change something?
I'll edit a bit. Save the bit with the village till later. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
Ok now we have an encounter with a vampire, how will this end?
And please, not that when I check back tomorrow, everyone is suddenly in honolulu if yoy know what I mean <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
give everyone the time to post a bit about something if they wish 2 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
My thoughts on the vampire. Maybe it will just cackle in an evil way and dissapear. Leaving the converted minions to fight Jolie and Carrie? Save the big fight till later..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />
the vampire will not be a final boss I think, there are many more demons, and I think nero has big plans in mind as well <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
I'm in the inn trying to get our wounded friend back to contientness
I'm not sure were i am. Last i've written i was in the inn. But now i seem to be outside or do they mean another paladin?
I thought you were outside with Carrie chasing off the toenail gang. Ah crap, that reminds me of a bit I left in my story....
Brb, editing to do.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
OK, removed Jolie from my bit of the story totally. He's outside in the alleyway with the vampire. (and Carrie)
I was now talking to the bizzare and well-written Dragh. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
jolie, you and carrie are with the vampire, and I am hiding behind some barrels to stay out of sight.
You can decide what to do with him, or what he'll do with you <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />
should i jump in on the vampire story or should i go to the inn and be there for when the toenail gang returns??
I'm terribly confused, whos talking to me? whos inn the inn and who's chasing toenailers?
Please just post this. for your own char.
1 of the toenailers is dead, 2 are in possesion of the vampire and 1 has fleed to askes for jolies help (between the lines you should read that a paladin never declines someone who asks for help, so he had to do it)
So there aren't many of them left to return at all <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
But, have you thought of how you as a human, are planning to fight a vampire?
They are said to be immortal, very fast and powerfull, and this one knows magic too.
And don't tell me you brought a wooden stick with you <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
Maybe the forces of light will have to destroy this vampire.
Edit for dragh:
I thought my posts made this clear, but:
I am hiding out of sight, watching at JOLIE and CARRIE standing in confrontation with THE VAMPIRE.
WOMBLE is talking to YOU at the INN (read his post in the info thread) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
the rest is probably still in the inn somehwere.
are we on a strange planet where day = 2 hours? cus time is screwed I entered the bar at dawn drank 3 shots and watched a barfight and its night allready?
The vampire casts no shadow but somebody was speaking about a shadow without a body to cast it or summin? I'm really confused. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />
a vampire can be killed by cutting it's head....and i don't think the vampire can withstand fire either....wich is my magic skill....for my character it would be doable...
@ dragh:
You really are confused <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" />
Never heard of description? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
Carrie writes that it LOOKED LIKE the blackest night, not that it was the blackest night.
THE VAMPIRE = THE SHADOW <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
and now, for kabuti:
True true, Forgot about your special power.
Don't forget that others would like a piece of him too ok? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
I'm not sure were i am. Last i've written i was in the inn. But now i seem to be outside or do they mean another paladin?
so jolie isn't outside?
ok I now go where womble was talking to me "no thanks to you"
and some of the toenailers are in the inn i just blew up <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shhh.gif" alt="" />
i could keep him alive off course....so he can return later in the story....
who?
dont write anything new about my guy, like coming back to life. ill write more; later.
Hey I got an idea guys, to set things straight, let's just agree that right now it's night and we all meet up in front of the vampire for a reason or another(you make that up) Then he does whatever he wants, evil speech, summon minions, fight us, whatever. This will be when the real story starts. Sounds good?
except me! I got blowne uppy.
but in 1 week (saturday or so) I shall return! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />
Oh my good lord!!!!!!!! I am so confused!!!!!!!!!
Someone went and ran for Jolie - so i wrote him in - and i had to work my character into the story somehow! Ouch! MY head hurts! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ouch.gif" alt="" />
Rythok - aren't you supposed to be "sleeping it off?" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
Oh my good lord!!!!!!!! I am so confused!!!!!!!!!
That's why I think it'd be a good idea if everyone found some reason to get in front of the vampire. Of course remember that it's the night or the vampire would'nt be out <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> After we all end up fighting the tough vampire together we can continue the story in a more "civilized" way.
But, i agree that a big fight should be left till later.
An not meaning to be too much of a girl guys...but....is this whole story going to be fights? Page 2 and already 2 fights????
we can't get infront of teh vampire because we got someone almost dead in the bar, some of us are unarmed and so on
Well yeah... I dunno, maybe not get there because of the fight but more for curiosity and he just gives a big evil speech and then leaves, then we all decide to stop this evil. In a pacifist way if you wish Carrie, but you might have to convince some of our characters.
Of course i'm not the one who leads this story, just giving my opinion.
Cheers
I like the idea of him disappearing, i was hoping someone would finish that for me today.
Maybe the fire that the fire whiskey is going to blow to kindom come?
?????
Something has to scare him - but what scared a vampire? Someone should get a wooden stake from the burning building...
But - we do have to rescue Lews too. Too much going on i think...
It was not just my idea...
My thoughts on the vampire. Maybe it will just cackle in an evil way and dissapear. Leaving the converted minions to fight Jolie and Carrie? Save the big fight till later..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />
He doesnt have to be scared. Some evil guys often give warnings before going on a killing spree.
I allready have a quest to undo some evil
but somhow that evil grew a lot, I had to meet 2 ppl to join my party. So my Idea is to get together again, well most if us tell the rest about the vampire then conclude that my quest has grown to big for us three and make our party bigger to fight it.
The vampire and you're quest could be tied together somehow. Your evil has grown really big and the vampire could be just a small part of it.
that what I meant
allright I've updated my BI pages.
I just want to offer encouragement. Its really a great story so far. You guys are doin' great!!!
yes <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> you guys are! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
i'm caught up now....
all i have to do is think of something.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" />
written sth, but not too much weaven with other chars.
imho The problem is that some of us want to take too much action involving other people thus 'robbing' them from their freedom.
stuff has happened now, so we need to take care of things... is the vampire gonna be killed or what. is MEA even gonna write again?? haven't seen her in ages.
imho we should kill the vamp, make acquentances (spelling ??) and get on with the story.. MEA can make a new evil guy/woman if she likes
i'm in the bar eating some grubs! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
did i scare anybody...... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />
i only jumped in on the vampire story....but what to do now?...must he die or live?..
he's already dead, remember... so i guess he'll live a little longer <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
Those who are dead,
and run away....
live to suck blood,
another day.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ouch.gif" alt="" />
must be bedtime...... chow! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />
well my last 2 post sure were short....but now there is room for others too post something....
written sth, but not too much weaven with other chars.
imho The problem is that some of us want to take too much action involving other people thus 'robbing' them from their freedom.
Just read this, we at the german side of this forum have had the same problem.
Solution? We just decided that nobody is allowed to write anything about an other char. It's the only way to hold our chars in their life with their reactions.
But you will handle this as well, i'm sure!
but then you'll get stuck being a party when a certain person can't come on. in a while....
Nice suggestion Rashida. I think we should try writing as little as possible involving other characters. Myself included. (slaps own hand, naughty) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />
Thanks for the input Mea. You could be our DM. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
Its good to have a guide in a story like this. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
I'll make my entry soon......... (oooer) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />
but then you'll get stuck being a party when a certain person can't come on. in a while....
In that case the person gives permission for someone else to write their character for a while. Hopefully someone who knows what to do with it.
we should discuss our next steps before posting an entry. The big changes tho.
Also when you plan a dialog between 2 chars you have to agree, maybe pm your dialog first then 1 could write the dialog down in his entry.
aight..agreed...(well at least i agree with that)
still looking for a volunteer to a member of the party I have to gather.
oh well it might as well be me...
thx mate
So Viper, Kabuti and me should meet recognize our discriptions and contact about the quest and decide we need more help since evil has grown.
oh yah..i believe you made a slight mistake with the bg story of my character at your BI pages..
I've only done copy-paste
it doesn't really mather much...but i have a post from rythok as bg story at the moment....i only felt like mentioning it...
ah I apparently pasted wrong
ROFL, so ok, dragh, maybe you should start initiaing us finding each other
one little remark, I have drawn my char, its on the characters page, so I don't look like soldier more like a bum. Beeing an ex-eastern servant of the emperor, a popular term is samurai, but that term is wrongly used.
<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> but thats detail. And will be explained in depth later when my char spits out his feelings. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />
Do you mean more like a Ronin Dragh?
if my post is to confusing or anything..i will edit it..if asked to do so..
samurai = servant of the emperor, wich is not a master in combat. Everyone who commits his whole life in service of the emperor is a samurai, if your a blacksmith or soldier.
my char was a samurai untill ....
I have no idea what ronin means.
Dragh: A ronin is a masterless samurai. Doomed to wander for the rest of his life for failing to protect his master. Or to commit Sepuku (is that the word?) i.e. kill himself via self-disembowellment.
quite correct.. only that a ronin is just a wandering samurai...seppuku the last deed of honour for a samurai....i don't remember it correctly anymore...ronin has another meaning these days though...
Well i suggested in my post that garlic is good to fight the vampire.
If someone somehow can get that there, we can scare the vampire away and so dispatch his minions. That vampire is way to strong for us now.
If you have other ideas, let us know maybe there better.
Nope, its only a question of organisation <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
Just take the holidays now. From Thursday 24:00 till Tuesday 0:00 we decided, not to go on, because most of us are offline.
And, like womble said, if anybody has no time, we just take him with us (like seraph, she is a vampire in our story and at the moment offline. So, from time to time we see a bat near by us, or something else)
that's pretty neat..
what i wanted to know now is..how many minions are we fighting aniway...?
before i go overboard killing more then there appearently were..and the vampire is going to make an escape or anything right?
i'd say about 5 minions. And indeed i suggest that vampire gets away for now, till we're stonger.
okay then...i hope to make a post later today...
they call me the midnight rambler..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
dragh, I opened the conversation... waiting for a response now
I'm sorry guys, but a series of unexpected events (In my real life, not the story) really keeps me busy. I'm not sure I'll be able to keep up with you all.
Proposed solutions:
1-I make my character die and we never talk about him anymore.
2-Someone who has lots of time and loves to write stories can write for my character.
I'll let you all decide.
or you can leave town for a while and then meet up with us again by accident, no death, no 'hostile' take overs
i like the character so i agree to keep the char. alive....
I also suggest an open ending. That way you can return whenever you want.
agreed, live!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
any1 object if i let the vampire run now??..
let him go <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
run vampie, run...... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspicion.gif" alt="" />
better come back to the Inn and pick up some garlic...
fresh from the kitchen.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
Ok he's gone for now. He'll be back someday but your characters dont know that <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
glad the vampire is gone....
OrCs are immune to vampires....... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
Yeah they don't taste too good.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
Anyone writing lately? Lets not let the story die off.
I'm at work but will try to post later. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
well i can't write at the moment....i have the last post eh...
LEWS, JURAK, WOMBLE, DRAGH... WRITE DAMMIT !!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
i'll be there tonight..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
i'm the 3rd contact right??
you and dragh are 1 and 2 right?
aaah, if you count that way. I thought Dragh was the contractor that contacted some people. I was #1 and then others.. hence the confusion <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
anyway, we should be going or i'm giving up the story.
Jurak, Womble, Lews, Jolie... Promises, promises but no writing.. sad, I really wanna get going
At the beginning I clearly said that everyone should know of themselves that they were actually going to write remember guys?
So write plz <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" />
Gabriel is the contractor <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
oh ok... my mistake <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
what are we writing, every day? I have written lately! first I was on a week vacation in Canada, then I got back on Monday or so, have written 2 posts in 4 days or so! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" /> what do you want me to do?!?!?!
I am in the inn, in a room, help me God.
don't take it personally Lews, it's just that it's not getting anywhere and I'm not accussing you or anyone else specifically, just no one DOES write and it's hard for the others to keep on writing if we can't influence other chars... if might interfere with their plans, but if they don't write... what plans then ??
sorry for not writing, but i was abit busy. One question: is still night time?
I think that night would have dissapeared when the vampire vanished
i'll be writing again at sunday..cause i have to go now and i'm not home tomorow also...you can involve my char at your post...i can deal with a little bit of influence on my char..
Jolie: I proposed a question to you in the bar. Its still night I guess but I want to move the tale along a bit so I can develop my character.
My idea is to go back to the village you discovered and converse with the spirits of the slain. Hopefully to find out what really happened there. I need to start 'discovering' dark powers again. Instead of just being a drunk. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
Ok, sounds good. But do you mind if my char fist catches up with some sleep. He hasnt slept for 3 days you know <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
Me too, I need to sleep off my drink. Could be an interesting combination of light and dark powers..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
suckers, I was just sleeping! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" /> K Viper; I overreacte' alot <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />
So now I will get up (Ill write tommorrow) and go find someone else.
Man, I got a right to be hostile, my people are being persecuted <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspicion.gif" alt="" />
sorry man i had a week of "undivine insanity" at work ...
and it's not over yet
no day of till next sat....
did a quick post and hope it's ok for a nuther day or two..
on the road again..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />
I changed my last post abit. Didnt like it.
Kay...silly question...can i fit in here or what?
I don't want to interfer in the story if you don't think i can.
yes...silly question....yes i don't see why not...... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />
any objections...... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/stupid.gif" alt="" />
maybe you could hook up wit jolie again...and pop out another kid in record time! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" />
i'm jokin of course..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />
NO< WE HATE YOU <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/memad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> Of course you can join! and I for one would be ery upset if you didn't. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" />
Ofcorse you can join up. A druid can be handy.
All right then. Are we going to go off into a couple of groups? I reckon I could go along with Jolie, Jurak and Carrie to investigate the village the next day. The insane/evil laughing (nicely provided by Mea) has given me an 'urge' for adventure. (or to get out of the bar anyway)
Or do we all go along?
I have a few ideas to 'kickstart' my necromantic skills. Anyone in the above mentioned people mind if I write them in a bit? (just to get the group together)
No problem for me Womble, just as long as i dont die <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
Alright. Lets try to get out of the first day. If anybody wants to post some more about the present evening do so. Maybe Carrie or Dragh? I got lots of ideas and want to try them out.
I reckon I could go along with Jolie, Jurak and Carrie to investigate the village the next day.
you can write for me for a day or two..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> let 'er rip..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
I am up for it...
Though - i warm you all...i do not have a ton of time lately...so drag me along, i will try to catch up and write when i can.
ok, well, h=who am I with??? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" />
blinky... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
ok, I guess I should write here, but it's actually Dragh that should start explaining the quest now
rats <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
Ok, so Dragh, Viper and Kabuti form a little group? Maybe JVB too?
But I wanna go with the big boys! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
then try to squeeeeeeeze in somewhere
I don't mind tangling along, but my character would never dare asking... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />
oh Kabuti will be gone for a while and we are allowed to write him in for a bit, so I'll do so.
I don't know what to write or how to make myself part of the plot. what are we doing right now? and were is everybody?
everyone at the café (almost)
I have benn thinking (and it hurt alot <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> ), Dragh you were talking about demons in you post. The warlock and so on. Maybe those demons could be responsable for the destruction of the village. We find that out, search more info and eventually come together as one group.
This can take a while though, but so we might have a goal for the future.
What do you guys think?
I tought someone might think that so I tell you know: I wrote on purpose to lead to such toughts
Nice post Dragh! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
So where to from here? I was going to take us to the next morning once you guys had posted your own 'conclusions' to the evening.
yah i've been gone for a while and i will be gone for a while..it's very annoying...my internet connection got cut off...luckily i'm staying at somebody elses place till tuesday or so....i'm hoping to get my connection back soon though...oh i'll be writing while i can if nobody minds...
well i have untill tuesday, so i hope the story progresses a bit in the meanwhile...
I will be able to post, tuesday. busy weekend....
we need to write down what we're doing, and what we want to do.
or just restart but actually plan it and not have me barge in and start it too soon. we need BG!
I got time now, so I can stick to the story if we keep it going.
