Back to Square One

Hi guys! 

I'll be posting here from now on. Thanks again for letting me join in on the adventure. ?

Here's my character sheet:

 

So i'll start writing the intro post for my character into the story. But I'll hold off on posting until @Token does since it's his turn. 

In other news, it seems like Grubbistch has created a new account for himself because the e-mail for his old one got deleted which in turn blocked it. So he's going by the username of [AW] Grubs now. 

You guys want to bring him back in?

If he is inclined to join us, then by all means we'd love to have him. @[AW] Grubs

Mine is a little shorter this round but I'm more pressed for time today/tonight than I thought I'd be. Sorry guys

Its alright! Makes it easier for my character to follow up!

My post is already up by the way. Hope you guys like the intro and the music as well! 

Maybe turn down the volume before you play it just in case... the player doesn't have a volume control. ?

@Vetanoob this is our OOC thread ?

Just a quick post from me today, seeing as it's out of order, but probably in Torie's character to try and get the first word in and say something dumb/light hearted.

Yep thanks! ? I think that's fine. My intro was really long... So I hope that I didn't make anyone else dizzy with so much text. 

But from next post onwards there will definitely be less words than before. But of course that will not diminish the quality of my post. ?

Just curious @Jotnotes, is there a plot you have in mind for this adventure? Or will we be taking on a quest (like artifacts and such)?

At the moment, we do not have a plot. The goal is to find a quest ourselves, and carry it out.

Hmm okay. Why don't we start brainstorming ideas while our characters are still inside the tavern? Once we have a rough overview of what our party's gonna do we can just discuss on the finer points of the plot (if necessary) as our characters get closer to their destination. 

I have an idea which I think @Token (or you guys too) might recognise. ?

A certain village leader needs an escort back to his remote village not too far from Vdara kingdom. Things start to turn sour during the trip and even worse once they arrive. Whether our party continues to assist the village when they reach there we can discuss later. 

So I think that this Introductory quest (cliche as it might seem) should be an easy way for our characters to get to know each other's personalities and skills, thus opening more opportunities for character/plot development as we go along. 

What do you guys think? ?

It's a solid idea. I'd like to think that we're pulling jobs from a board, so I think we'll need to amass a few more options before moving forward.

Personally, I think Priscilla's current attitude, and the sort of confidence she's trying to put up front would lead her towards more violent works. 

I'm thinking taking down bandits, or facing poachers seems right up her alley. In particular, perhaps the crew can track a small group of bandits working with a few guards to capture and ransom off people. The party will follow clues through the town, however they please, and try to find leads that'll bring them to the bandit's hideout. Then, it's just a matter of putting out justice.

@Jotnotes is Priscilla the only one who can see the runes?

Sounds like it. Seems to be hallucinations directly linked to her runic smithing abilities that only she can see. 

Is it @Jotnotes? ?

If you mean, just within the party, then most likely. Priscilla's a runesmith, and part of learning how to do that is using a special oculum that brands the runes into your eyes at a certain age. 

Those are mostly incentive to help Priscilla work harder. Her desperation to make more runes continues to grow.

Another short one from me today, sorry. It just seemed the logical place to go. I hope I made up for it by making two short posts in quick succession!
