O.O I'm gone for almost a day. BOOM! People! :P welcome guys! Foo has been working hard to get this going. And it's nice to see her efforts paying off.
Hi. Yes, I'm the one who brought @Boss Megu in. I changed Han Young's background accordingly.@Boss Megu, I'm almost positive but it doesn't hurt to ask, you talked to Mippu about the character connections first right?
Cold weather's killer in 'The Good Ol' Days' of renaissance Britain. Waaay more people died in the winter than the summer, due to a mix of low food supplies and not being prepped for the cold. Makes sense that people are weak to the cold! But...I can't find it in their weakness. I think it's just Hildy because she's a sap.Yups. She helped me build my chara and dragged me here actually. :D Can't wait to start.
Also, I've noticed that many of the character's are weak with cold weather. hahaha
Hi @Ythania, I'd like to answer, if you don't mind.EDIT: Question! How famous are your characters? It's all fine and dandy with me boasting about how Hildred's got this terrible reputation but I'd really like to repay the favour by making it so Hildred knows of any rumours, stories, legends, or simply feats of strength that any of your characters would be well-known for.
By the way, I'd be forever grateful to you if your character did recognise her and heard about the rumours, not only would it make my day but it'd fit in with the sort of atmosphere I'm trying to create. ESPECIALLY if your character hates her, or doesn't like her due to the rumours. I'm intentionally trying to put some friction into the team.
Thank you!Hi @Ythania, I'd like to answer, if you don't mind.
I'm afraid Hildy's position as a sort of nouveau riche-style merchant's daughter puts her firmly below Aurel's status, so she wouldn't know much about him. As for Han, Hildred is no magic user, so she wouldn't know about him either. They're intriguing characters though, especially Han...I can see Hildred having fun with his muteness.Aurel would be known to those who are involved with the royal court of Resthain and to those who know the royal families of the neighboring kingdoms. He's not exactly famous, but he's a little popular. Han Young is neither, but may be known to magic users who studied in the nearby kingdoms.
Mhm, don't worry - Norway has made it clear and I've wholeheartedly agreed with her. Fricton, not conflicts; I've seen disjointed and disagreeable personalities in an adventuring team become the death of many RPs of this genre, and I'm determined to avoid crossing the line and plummeting the whole group into chaos. Hence why Hildred is so...friendly, confident, sociable, the likes; she's not looking to make enemies, she's got enough of them already. The worst she can be for someone who hasn't heard about her is annoying. I don't even expect everyone to know who she is, that would be very haughty of me to demand that of any of you. With Norway and Bitterblue's help, Hildred's reputation can manifest itself in the opinion of the NPCs, which could even bring the team closer together by sticking up for the thief when, I don't know, a bartender refuses to serve her.Personally, I find Hildred interesting, although I'm not keen on the conflicts. I suppose it's a nice balance. It seemed to be a central theme in the past RP so I hope it won't be the case here because it slowed the plot.
My goodness, thank you so much for your kind words! I'm hoping to open up commissions after my exams are done, and I'll probably make an art thread on Iwaku before then toHope that's illustrative. And speaking of illustration, your art is lovely. Digging the Fallout one.
Inara might have one. She singlehandedly brought down a large group of raiders in multiple towns in her area. So..EDIT: Question! How famous are your characters?

You're very welcome. I do appreciate character building.Thank you!
That would be amusing to play out. He's not as open as Aurel so it would annoy him but since they're on the same team, he'll be loyal to her too.I'm afraid Hildy's position as a sort of nouveau riche-style merchant's daughter puts her firmly below Aurel's status, so she wouldn't know much about him.

I now really want to have this scene written in.With Norway and Bitterblue's help, Hildred's reputation can manifest itself in the opinion of the NPCs, which could even bring the team closer together by sticking up for the thief when, I don't know, a bartender refuses to serve her.
I suppose this is something for us all to work on.I'm going to actively avoid dragging the whole team into all-out war with each other whenever possible, but I'm a sucker for character development - the ultimate goal is gaining respect and building trust between the members through unwavering loyalty, even to a supposedly untrustworthy thief.
You kidding? That'd be great. I'd follow you if I had a tumblr.My goodness, thank you so much for your kind words! I'm hoping to open up commissions after my exams are done, and I'll probably make an art thread on Iwaku before then toshow offdisplay some of my work.
Hmmm with Torgeir I feel his reputation is sort of like that of Geralt from the Witcher series. If he hears about a contract that pays well he will go take it up, complete it, get paid and move on. Over the last couple of years he must have done some contracts for the right sort of people (rich) a handful of times and his name has gotten around a bit. Most ordinary people aren't going to know who he is at all and some of the gentry are likely to know him by name.EDIT: Question! How famous are your characters?

Nori's family is quite famous to start off with, Nori's name would be quite well know to everyone in Resthain and in all neighboring countries. Resthain became so powerful because they were backed by the Lightseer's (lets face it, when you have someone who can predict the future it's pretty easy to prosper). An announcement saying Resthain's Lightseer family had produced a new mage would be huge news and would easily travel. As far as being known for something other than a disgrace, not so much. Of course only the name is famous, no one knows Nori's face unless they've seen him in the castle before.Question! How famous are your characters?

Ah, right! Ok, let me do that real quick!@NorwayFOO don't forget to put the name of the kingdom and the queen in the intro! XD
Okies, sorry about that. I'll try and fix it when I have a chance.@Bitterblue I love the post, I should probably put that level of detail into supplies and prep but Hildred had no idea what the summons was for. Just a little error - Hildred actually waited until they had exited the throne room and the doors had shut before saying anything, but you misread and assumed she went all chatty in front of the queen.
I'll find a way to get Hildred's supplies in a later post. Is there any posting order?
im a working on numero unoI want everyone to get an introduction post in, after that you can post when you want. Just try not to leave the others in the dust.
5. Two posts (from different RPer's) must be between each individual post.
I will try my hardest to get Caela up within the next week. This weekend is CRAZY.I want everyone to get an introduction post in, after that you can post when you want. Just try not to leave the others in the dust.
