Talk:On The Road Again

From The Whereabouts

Descending Water 11

  • Cathak Aden, Peleps Caedmon, Sesus Izumi, and Tepet Marek Udo meet for lunch and to get an explanation from Aden. Aden explains that the Scorpian King is an anthema in the South that recently survived an attack by the Wyld Hunt near Paragon. The details are murky, but there are a number of suspicious circumstances surrounding what happened. A number of rumors include the Scorpian King being ready for the attack with a small army, all of the survivors deciding to stay in Paragon and send letters of what happened to the Blessed Isle, and a number of the Hunt not being with the group during the attack. Aden thinks some kind of betrayel occured and wants to discover what happened. The survivors stated that the anathema had been severly wounded during the battle. Aden thinks that discovering what took place will be more challenging than fighting the beast.
  • Aden has secured passage for them from Noble to Paragon on a ship. There will be room for them, a few retainers (Brian's), any mounts, and the small amount of luggage they will be traveling with. He plans on having them ride south along the Great Coast Road to get to Noble. He admits that it will take longer than taking a boat, but he only has so much jade. Also, they will get to see some of the Blessed Isle and maybe find some trouble along the way. Note: The Cloister of Wisdom is near Noble, so Udo has probably seen this area before. He may have even traveled this part of the Great Coast Road to or from the Imperial City before.
  • Post any questions your characters would have asked and I will give you what Aden would have answered. When your questions are satisfied, let me know and we will begin the scene on the morning we leave the Imperial City for Noble. Izumi would fill Tycho in on the details when he arrives in the Imperial City on Descending Water 13. The rest of us will meet Tycho for the first time on the morning of Descending Water 14 at first dawn when they begin their journey. --Macabreengel 14:53, 1 August 2011 (EDT)

Tycho gains either 3 essence or 1 willpower back from his stunt. I am not doing xp for 3 die stunts because 1) they are easier to do when you can think and write and 2) you can write stories for more xp. Another rule for stunts, you must post them withing 24 hours of when I text you. I dont want people to put off posting until they come up with an awesome stunt. Some leniency will apply as long as it never becomes a problem.

Also, I think I originally said that stories were 2xp, make that 3xp.

Formatting

Ignore this section for now... this code will work once I upgrade the wiki. And then we can talk about whether or not it would be useful to include OOC information on the main page with something like this.

Tick 2 OOC


Cad: Tick 2, Guarding/moving, 47 yards from leader
Udo: Tick 5, -1 DV

To Do

This is the last full scene on the island. I would like to see these things completed or nearly completed before we leave the island. Dan H wont be posting until the 18th at the earliest and the scene will involve a fight, so there is a little time, but please work on these things when it is not your turn to post. I am goint to have Tycho and Izumi catch up to Aden, Cad, and Udo right before the fight begins. Essentially they will come riding up behind them right were we left off with seeing the guy with the crossbow. Brian: Your in character post should include anything significant your character did or wanted to do they day they were supposed to leave or the morning they are leaving. Include a brief description of your character similiar to Izumi's. Then have them ride around the front of the estate and introduce his retainers to us. They can be riding either cheap mounts like donkeys, mules, ponies, or old raggedly horses, or they can be riding a cart or cheap carriage being pulled by two horses or oxen or something similair. Whichever you prefer is fine. If you want them to all ride regular horses, the extra money will have to come out of your character's pocket. If you have another idea you prefer, that is fine. Finish your post with them leaving the city unless you post something I need to respond to before you guys leave (that happened either the day before or that morning).
