Iris is kind of a daddy's girl...

It's bugging me that I can't think of something for that...


Edit - Who is Iris anyway? Your characters's name was Fenris.

CelesJessa
04-14-2004, 03:40 PM
Iris is the Heir to Fayon that you are travelling with for the moment until my character finds you guys.

also:

The book alone had to easilly way 20 pounds.

I just got a book today that seems like that. It's a novel and it has over 1300 pages to it....

Forever Zero
04-14-2004, 03:48 PM
What's the novel? I only know of one novel with that many pages in it...

CelesJessa
04-14-2004, 03:50 PM
The book is "DragonLance" I think it's a anthology, with four novels in one... Not sure though. It's an OLD book (I'm borrowing it.) and it's missing some of the first pages with the table of contents and such, I think.

Forever Zero
04-14-2004, 03:55 PM
Ahh, I've heard of it and flipped through it in the library, never read it though. And yes, there are multiple books in the series, which means that all together it would most likely reach over 1000 pages.

Dr DR
04-14-2004, 03:55 PM
Well, I'm into the story. Not doing much mind. But there you go.

I don't get it. Dante said my guy was loud when he only asked one question.

Zweihander
04-14-2004, 04:50 PM
Just for a quick reference, I made up a text file containing the character sheets. Hope it attaches correctly....

Dr DR
04-14-2004, 04:50 PM
I didn't get any description at all. Just "Ranger". Still I don't particularly mind. My fella doesn't have any particularly spectacular powers, his talents and use to the group lie more in his ability to notice things and to survive.

CelesJessa
04-14-2004, 05:02 PM
Is there anyone left who needs to post? I want to get everyone to post at least once before I make the face worms attack.

Also, I restate, there is no snow in the area, just to make sure everyone caught that. The frost giants were with the person in the side-story.

IHateMakingNames
04-14-2004, 05:04 PM
Z(Whatever the rest of your name is), I suggest you get used to the fast posting, or either A) Drop out now, B) Learn to read faster for when you have to catch up, or C) Skim more.

lazy man
04-14-2004, 05:09 PM
I still don't get why Dante thinks my guy is loud.

CelesJessa
04-14-2004, 05:25 PM
I have to go for a little bit, but this will give those who haven't posted yet a chance to post... and if they haven't posted by the time I get back (as long as I have enough time on my hands, I have dance tonight too.) then I'll make the face worms attack.

Just take care of character introductions (since IHMN hasn't officially joined the group yet. maybe he will when the face worms attack) and such. I shouldn't be gone for TOO long.

EDIT: I trust you guys to not let anything get out of hand. ^^ heh. if you want to talk about things in the sign up, like we usually do... it's fine, just don't let the RP get out of hand. (discussion threads don't matter THAT much.) ^^

Darth SS
04-14-2004, 09:28 PM
That is officially the least glamorous intro I think I've ever done.


I vote FZ was the person who stepped on him. Just because Vace would be about another head taller than Kal.

Forever Zero
04-14-2004, 09:32 PM
Alright, that works, and I am walking towards the group.

Truce
04-14-2004, 09:33 PM
I vote IHMN, just because it would be funny to see what he would do. Or maybe the old guy.

CelesJessa
04-14-2004, 09:33 PM
And I think once Forever zero posts about stepping on him, I'll make the face worms show up, if that's alright with everyone.

EDIT: or whoever ends up stepping on him.

Darth SS
04-14-2004, 09:33 PM
Fine with me.

Truce
04-14-2004, 09:36 PM
Signing off right now; I'll be gone until around ten at most.

Truce'll just be running around like crazy when the wormies show up.

EDIT - That means I'll be gone about three hours. Forgot, not all of you live where I do.

IHateMakingNames
04-14-2004, 09:36 PM
Do you guys want me to have the insanity of my guy be often, or not very often (I was planning on the latter)?

And if your curious (If not, oh well, I don't care), the reasons for random insanity is that after he absorbs people, the minds/memories stay with him unless he removes them. Every now and then he will forget about them completely, or miss a little bit when removing them. After a while of being stuck in the corner of his mind, the memories/other minds will pop out. That, and his mind has been infected because he's been absorbing people for a while.

Edit - I can't be me, he said he got stepped on in the middle of the group. My guy is not near the group.

Squishy Cheeks
04-14-2004, 09:47 PM
Hell I'm being senile until it's important. I'm going to come up with some interesting spells too.

Darth SS
04-14-2004, 09:51 PM
Actually....as IHMN put it...

Meth is basically the original excuse for god-modding. Extremely powerful, and the weakness doesn't even apply when he's being powerful.

Squishy Cheeks
04-14-2004, 09:58 PM
So far for unusual but useful spells. Meat Vision and Curse of Lawn Gnome.

Darth SS
04-14-2004, 09:59 PM
Anything to do with cotton yet?

Squishy Cheeks
04-14-2004, 10:01 PM
The spell of Cotton Eye Joe.

Forever Zero
04-14-2004, 10:04 PM
Alright, I want to know what the "Lawn Gnome Curse" and the "Spell of Cotton Eye" Joe do exactly...

Squishy Cheeks
04-14-2004, 10:09 PM
Curse of Lawn Gnome - A spell that summons lawn gnomes. Which is a curse in and of itself since Lawn gnomes are mean, stupid, and annoying.

Gnome 1: We stole fire from men, and put it in our pockets.
Gnome 2: That was painful and dumb.

Spell of Cotton Eye Joe - Causes a very annoying and catchy song to be played from no where and forces people to line dance.

Darth SS
04-14-2004, 10:12 PM
So, are FZ and I attacked seperately then?

CelesJessa
04-14-2004, 10:14 PM
A bunch of other face worms identicle to the first one will show up, so everyone has some to fight.

And are gnomes even in the world of Ragnarok? heh.

Squishy Cheeks
04-14-2004, 10:16 PM
Yes Gnomes are part of nordic mythology. In fact that's where Lawn gnomes orginated from.

CelesJessa
04-14-2004, 10:18 PM
I mean, lawn gnomes. (not just regular gnomes) I have a hard time seeing the king of Fayon with a plethera of garden gnomes in his yard... heh. actually, I could see him of all people doing that.

Forever Zero
04-14-2004, 10:18 PM
Those are some great magic spells. I need to keep those in mind for future crazy old mages I might make...

IHateMakingNames
04-14-2004, 10:20 PM
Or, you can do what Jad is, and just make up spells.

Forever Zero
04-14-2004, 10:25 PM
Good point. The Lawn Gnome Curse is one I want to remember at least though, but I can make up any more as I would need them.

IHateMakingNames
04-14-2004, 10:27 PM
Where did all this ground stuff come from? Turning sand into javilens is not an Alchemist thing...

Darth SS
04-14-2004, 10:29 PM
Never seen Full Metal Alchemist have you?

I'll explain the concept...

Its basically a magic that uses the mass of one thing, and exchanges it for something else. Equivalent mass rules apply. So, he could turn one pound of sand to one pound of rice or something. And his medallion just amplifies his powers so he can form it as it gets made. But the majority is sloppy, so the wall isn't going to stay as a wall very long. It'll just drop back into dirt.

Forever Zero
04-14-2004, 10:29 PM
So far, the "Alchemist" seems to be a cross of Mr. V's Geomancer from FF RP, and Raiden's character from Perdition's Tale...

Krylo
04-14-2004, 10:30 PM
I was wondering that too, IHMN... I thought alchemists mixed x with y to produce effect z. Such as pouring a potion on lead to make it into gold...

IHateMakingNames
04-14-2004, 10:31 PM
This fight is very messed up...

Face worm appears, bites at girl. Lazy's guy jumps infronnt of girl and attacks worm. Sand javilen hits worm and it attacks SS's guy. krylo's guy jumps ontop of lazy's guy to get between girl and now moving face worm. Girl instantly passes 2 people infront of her and attacks worm.

CelesJessa
04-14-2004, 10:31 PM

That's what I thought too. Kinda like the alchemist in FFX-2.

Darth SS
04-14-2004, 10:34 PM
Those are closer to Potionmasters.

This is like that, just waaay more on the fly. And short term.

IHateMakingNames
04-14-2004, 10:35 PM
So, you're guy doesn't mix x with y to get z?

Darth SS
04-14-2004, 10:36 PM
No, he takes compound a, subjects it to his brand of magic summoning stuff, and turns it into compound b.

Then about five minutes later, the effect wears off, and it turns back into compound a.

CelesJessa
04-14-2004, 10:41 PM
As Sang pointed at the face worm far away from him, suddenly a face worm popped infront of him. With a scream, Sang pushed the ranger near him at the face worm, then turned around to run.

Alright, that moment was just great. Heh. I could totally see Sang screaming like a girl than pushing other people in front of him.

Darth SS
04-14-2004, 10:44 PM
This is why IHMN is here boys and girls.

To get us all into more trouble than we need. *applause*

lazy man
04-14-2004, 11:01 PM
As usual, no one ever mentions me because I'm always forgotten unless I post something, which is usually overrun with other posts and can never be read.(I'm just getting annoyed at how many times that has happened)

Anyway, I'm going to bed, so don't make another five pages while I'm gone.

Krylo

More like my guy jumps behind Lazy's.

It looked to me like Lazy leaped over her to attack it, Darilk was just getting between her and it, incase Lazy's guy (whose name I can't remember) wasn't able to stop it. Darilk wasn't trying to attack it... just make sure it couldn't attack Iris. He doesn't really care whether anyone but he and her survives... because I'm assuming some of us (if not all) have been hired by her father to go with her (judging by the first post)... and he'd want us to protect her as well as killing the worms.

IHateMakingNames
04-14-2004, 11:39 PM
Only lazy, krylo, Dante, and FZ's characters are hired to protect Iris. Everyone else jsut met them. And my guy would throw her at the worms and run before he fought (When your fighting relies on grabbing your oppenent, you would tend to not fight often, especially when the enemies are gaint spikey worm things).

Forever Zero
04-14-2004, 11:40 PM
Actually, I wasn't hired to protect her, but my guy is the classic helper of damsels in distress, so he is there battling this thing anyway. My guy just wandered into this.

Squishy Cheeks
04-14-2004, 11:46 PM
My guy was hired too.

Truce
04-15-2004, 12:49 AM
My guy is just lost.

And now to post in the RP!

Krylo
04-15-2004, 03:00 AM
Ecurt: In response to your RP post...

All of the people there are trained combatants (except maybe Iris and SS's guy). It's unlikely one of the babies is going to manage to kill them, or even get a good solid/damaging blow on them. If a baby face worm were to attack Darilk, for instance, it would just distract him from mama for a half-second while he dismembered it.

I'm sure the others would be capable of that as well.

Also: I would think a face worm 'sees' in the same way that the monsters in tremors see... seeming as they're kinda reminiscent. Sense vibrations and shit.

IHateMakingNames
04-15-2004, 03:11 AM
I'm sure the others would be capable of that as well.

My guy is not capable in a fight until he touches some one. Before that, his tactics include ducking, throwing dirt in your eyes, hitting you in the nuts, then running.

Krylo
04-15-2004, 03:13 AM
Perhaps... but your guy is also a coward who is hiding behind various fighters, so you don't really count as distracted. Also, a face worm WOULD have to touch you to hurt you...

Dante

He's not hiding behind anyone. He's standing in the middle of the field where there are no face worms at the moment. All the ones chasing him were unloaded on Zw's guy, and the rest are probably running to their mom.

Dante
04-15-2004, 03:16 AM

Nah, but he should have something to save his ass, otherwise he'll get raped to death by wild animals.

Krylo
04-15-2004, 03:45 AM
Nah, but he should have something to save his ass, otherwise he'll get raped to death by wild animals....Can I add a magical camcorder to Darilk's equipment? I'm sure beastiality rape snuff porn would sell well on the black market.

Edit: It wasn't tentacle rape, so I was still allowed to comment despite my promise! ...I'll refrain from further comments along this vein, however.

IHateMakingNames
04-15-2004, 04:04 AM
Nah, but he should have something to save his ass, otherwise he'll get raped to death by wild animals.

Puh, he can easily defend himself.

First he beats one of the animals with his rod. Then he touches them and absorbs it's essance. (I can't think of anything 'clever' after that...)

I won't be here for the end of the worms and the meeting of everyone, either just say my guy tags along, follows the group, or leaves during the fight and will meet up with you later.

Zweihander
04-15-2004, 10:25 PM
I just had a genius idea during dinner, but it seems moot now that the worms are dead and DD is leaving...

Meat Vision + Explody Rune = gruesome death of large monster.

Squishy Cheeks
04-15-2004, 10:46 PM
I was thinking of writing a sort of back story for Meth. It would also involve some of my sepll ideas. anyone interested in reading it?

Edit: Meat Vision + Resurection = Meat man

Zweihander
04-15-2004, 10:58 PM
Sure, why not? It's probably gonna be the most entertaining thing I'll ever read. Heh. Meat Golem. But wouldn't Rez just bring the cow/pig/whatever back to life? Wait, then there's even more meat...

Krylo
04-15-2004, 10:59 PM
Meat man! The tastiest super hero ever to fight crime! However, he has a fatal weakness to hungry dogs, meat grinders, and carnivores in general.

CelesJessa
04-16-2004, 12:21 AM
OOC: Let me take a wild guess as to what happened...

That obvious, eh? Not too cheesy I hope.

Well... it would have worked a little better if it hadn't been Darilk carrying the horn... ^^;;

Forever Zero
04-16-2004, 12:24 AM
Actually, it might have worked better if you hadn't said this...

causing her to trip a bit and him to drop the horn for a second,

Sort of gave it away. Also, in all the RPs done here, and RPGs in general, whenever there is a theif of anything, the classic theif tactic is to trip into your target and act indignant, then storm off. The important World Saving Item will always now be in the theifs possesion...

Krylo
04-16-2004, 12:24 AM
Someone catch her before Darilk. He'll kill her quickly, and I assume Celes doesn't want Lidia dead. (That's the thief's name, by the way... it says so on the note... but Darilk wouldn't bother reading it after just being robbed.)

CelesJessa
04-16-2004, 12:29 AM
Actually, it might have worked better if you hadn't said this...

Yeah, but it just HAD to be Darilk carrying the horn, I couldn't think of any other reasonable way for her to get it away from him other than that. ^^ heh.

EDIT: and yeah, Lidia would probably like living after this encounter.

Krylo
04-16-2004, 12:33 AM

Dante
04-16-2004, 12:36 AM
Is there seriously a Thieves' Guild Handbook? I saw something like that before, and it mostly involved stuff like "You don't need to run fast - just faster than the last guy."

Krylo
04-16-2004, 12:37 AM
Rule 1: There is no thieves' guild. Much less a rulebook.

Edit: I think you're referring to this law
Rule 617: You don't need to run faster than the police, just faster than your partner.
Rule 617 a: Running isn't necessary if you can frame someone.

Forever Zero
04-16-2004, 12:40 AM
Is there an actual website for that? That looks pretty funny...

Dante
04-16-2004, 12:43 AM
I think krylo just makes it up, but it's funny all the same.

Rule 556: Money is good, free money is best. I will always pick up any money I find. I will go out of my way to get money.

Rule 557: I never met a cop I didn't like... sleeping with the fishes.

Your guy could be... reading the note... if you want... I could post what it says here.

Darilk is planning on killing a thief.
Chaos is following Darilk so he can make sure Darilk doesn't kill the thief.
Vace is heading to catch the thief alone.
Zweihander's guy (can't remember his name) is at the inn.
Everybody else is standing around next to a lump of iron with a note attached to it, from the thief.

Forever Zero
04-16-2004, 01:20 AM
We are all in town somewhere, little girl stole the Horn. krylo is about to kill half the town in a display of angsty vengence, Dante is trying to calm him down, and my guy left and is going to the Bounty Hunter's Guild to try and cut off the girl before she turns in the horn for the reward money.

IHateMakingNames
04-16-2004, 01:20 AM

Krylo

Darilk only plans on killing the girl in a show of angsty vengence. And anyone that gets between him and killing the girl... not half the town.

Zweihander
04-16-2004, 08:27 AM
It's Rogue. It's not spy, or assassin, or diplomat, or politician (though all of those people are Rogues). And for Odin's sake, it certainly isn't thief or cutpurse or swindler...
not if you want to keep drawing air. It's Rogue, with a capital 'R'. Don't let me catch those other phrases passing your lips.


That says it all. And I'm not quite at the inn yet...

CelesJessa
04-16-2004, 04:52 PM
I don't really know exactly what's going on with the spy stuff, honostly.Maybe somebody should PM me and specifically tell me what's going on, perhaps. ^^

(Sorry for not being around a ton. I spent the day riding bikes yesterday, I'm going to be at the relay for life for awhile today, and then tomorrow I have to go to the airport to see my parents off as they go on their week-long cruise. (without ME? Geez.)

Also: so who is searching where for the theif?

IHateMakingNames
04-16-2004, 04:56 PM
Here is what I know is going on.

rightwhatwasidoing's guy is walking around looking for thief. Ecrut's guy is somewhere (Near Vult I think), everyone else is heading towards bounty office. Vult is somewhere. My guy is... I don't know.

And as for the spy thing, that is something Zw is making up (Apparently we're being followed...)

Forever Zero
04-16-2004, 05:00 PM
Yeah, sounds like a typical newbie mistake. I tried that in one of my early RPs and it just didn't work out well... (Janus and his quest to defeat the Demon in an old TWC RP)

But krylo's guy is wandering the streets looking for the Thief, and Dante's guy is trying to keep him in check. My guy is going to the Bounty Hunter's Office to wait for the theif there, and other then that I don't really know what the others are doing...

Any story related way he could be thrown into the story (As in something up ahead he could already be at)? If not, I'll just have him stalk the group.

CelesJessa
04-16-2004, 10:09 PM
He could already be in Fayon, since that is (hopefully, if everything goes according to plan) their next stop (next event stop), or you could be at the inn they will probably stay at in Alberta.

EDIT Randomness: wOOt, I just got the 6th Ragnarok manga. ^^ Yay.

04-16-2004, 10:10 PM
I have a few questions...

1.) Is it possible to join this Ragnarok if I were to read all of Chapter 1 up to current times 2?
Note: I'm not a real newbie to RPing. If you need some reference I'll be glad to give you links to some of my previous PBP-Forum memberships.
2.) What time period does this RP take place? Or shall I say what theme? (IE Medievil, Modern, Fantasy, Furturistic, or combanation of multiple examples?)

I'm intrigued with this story already...But I haven't placed my mouse even on page one.

IHateMakingNames
04-16-2004, 10:11 PM
1) I'm going to guess yes because Celes is a push over.
Note: First person is annoying.
2) Medival.

DungeonMaster
04-16-2004, 10:13 PM
Both are fine. I'll gladly do my RP in the form of 3rd person. Only some of my intros are first person and that is it...

CelesJessa
04-16-2004, 10:15 PM
1) I'm going to guess yes because Celes is a push over.

I resent that statement.

2) Medival.

Yeah, medievil/fantasy. It has a lot of norse mythology in it.

And before making a character, you might want to read through it and see if you are still as intrigued by it after you've read what we have so far. I just don't want anyone to be making commitments and then going, "Oh... this RP is weird.... I don't want to be in it anymore."

EDIT: Oh yeah, and 1st person writing in the RPs is usually not a good thing.

IHateMakingNames
04-16-2004, 10:19 PM
A resent that statement.

You've gotten much better from Preditions, but you still are a little shaky (This is an assumption since no one has done anything real bad yet for you to handle, just some minor things).

You've gotten much better from Preditions, but you still are a little shaky (This is an assumption since no one has done anything real bad yet for you to handle, just some minor things).

I wonder what would happen if Delamar showed up, or that guy from FFRP I who just cut into the middle of the first battle just like that.

Delamar is a different matter all together, and some random newbie joining would be told off by FZ, you, krylo, and myself before Celes even noticed the post.

It has to be two or more vets argueing in the RP to be a Celes issue.

Oh, I see. Well, then. Shall we start arguing for no apparent reason just to test Celes?

Hm... Either be at the bounty office and help the group get the horn, or be at the inn's bar and scare people with random acts of insanity..

And Zw, you still have to explain the whole spy thing.

Before anyone says anything, this is my guy pulling an insanely desperate bluff.

That, and he's gonna' pull some trickery if the clerk buys it. And all shall be explained.

IHateMakingNames
04-16-2004, 10:47 PM
If the clerk falls for that, then he is stupid. Apparently, the guy who just turned a random object into a fake horn wants to take the real horn and turn it into something else to prove that is it also fake when he just turned something into something else.

Krylo
04-16-2004, 10:55 PM
If he proves the horn is fake, we can't get a bounty for it, anyway. It's a shitty plan.

Celes can just make the girl scared of a guy who's actually going to, you know, dismember her... and decide to drop the horn and run... and Iris can stop Darilk, seeming as Darilk is honor-bound not to kill her.

Dante
04-16-2004, 10:56 PM
And meanwhile, I ahve to at least try to maintain the damn status quo...

Krylo
04-16-2004, 11:16 PM
...And right now Darilk is trying to decide if protecting Iris includes protecting her from lecherous Alchemists...

Kal raised his hand and said, "If you really want it, you can have my share. And by the way, what's your name?"

Where you talking to Iris or Lidia (the theif)? I can't remember if you would already know who Iris is or not.

I need to hit the local Suncoast and pick myself up some of those. I'm familiar with the world, and played Ragnarok Online for a while until my computer decided to declare war on the client.

Edit: Didn't read the new post. That's gonna be one bizarre book to read...

*Cough* I'm further behind then I expected. Anyone want to give a quick update on what happened, or did nothing vital happen and I can just jump back in?

Lidia turns in bounty.
Chaos intervenes.
Lidia argues,
Dart interjects.
Kal bluffs.
Darlik enters and get mad.
Lidia folds.
Chaos collects cash and leaves with Lidia.

Sangs was also kind enough to clear out the inn for us. Vult's praying that the lunatic doesn't notice him.

Check. I'll jump in with my half-aware fighter intellect and not pay attention to half of what just happened...

Krylo
04-16-2004, 11:34 PM
IHMN: Would YOU want some crazy guy who talks to himself... and who shoved you into a face worm after having a brief conversation earlier, to notice you?

I think Vurt is just scared Sang will strike up a conversation.

Zweihander

Would you want to be the only one left in a bar with a raving lunatic? Knowing you, you might. But not me.

I never said everyone left, I said most of the people in a 20-foot radius moved to somewhere else (Maybe outside of the inn)

SS...
Darilk: trained dark knight

Your character: Cowardly alchemist.

...Let's not start any fights by calling him an ass and then changing his armor into shit?

Darth SS
04-16-2004, 11:38 PM
It'll turn back.

And Krylo, if he has no emotions, then he won't have anger.

Which means he'll do absolutely nothing about it.

Krylo
04-16-2004, 11:43 PM
He has emotions. He just keeps them buried due to the nature of his power, and the fact that they're all dark. If he had no emotions he couldn't use his power (you'll notice he explained it as channelling his hate through his sword), but if he allowed his emotions to show constantly, he'd be a walking ball of death. As in dark waves would be shooting off of him constantly... and then he'd die because he'd expend all of his energy like that.

Besides: He still has a sense of honor and shame, AND he already doesn't like your guy because of how he cowered before the baby face worms, summoning rocks and what have you... and asking people to keep them from attacking him. In other words, your guy is a coward. Cowards have no honor in Darilk's eyes. Your character has no honor in Darilk's eyes.

CelesJessa
04-16-2004, 11:44 PM
Yes. but lets not go turning people's armor into fluffy cotton. You never know when Darilk will decide if he's unfeeling or not and dismember you... and I'd like to stear from anger towards each other in the RP ^^;;

IHateMakingNames
04-16-2004, 11:45 PM
Just for the record, Sangsue is only a coward against gaint monsters (Or slimey ones, disgusting ones, sticky ones, etc). He doesn't want to go touch those so he can then kill them.

Darth SS
04-16-2004, 11:49 PM
Hey, Krylo....Two Questions...

Did he ever acknowledge that he asked them to protect him so he could focus on making weapons that wouldn't dissapear?

And does his sense of honor and stuff mean that the only way he thinks a situation can be solved is to run in, full in sight, sword swinging, and being amazingly....I don't know...classic?

This is just so I know, so Kal's reactions will be different.

CelesJessa
04-16-2004, 11:54 PM
My ruling: You guys can argue (a bit), but no more tampering with each other's equiptment. That is the kind of stuff that will lead to things that happened in Perdition's Tale.

IHateMakingNames

Once my guy joins, any tampering SS does could easily be fixed by my guy. Though now that it's been banned I guess it doesn't matter.

Aw, but I just do it to mess with his mind. And it's not permanent.

Hey, Krylo....Two Questions...

Did he ever acknowledge that he asked them to protect him so he could focus on making weapons that wouldn't dissapear?Nope. The daggers didn't do much... and throwing weapons from behind a mound of dirt isn't exactly brave. Besides, he doesn't know much about alchemy, so he wouldn't really know that you were making things that should exist longer. He'd just figure you were cowering and making stuff to throw at things from a safe distance.

And does his sense of honor and stuff mean that the only way he thinks a situation can be solved is to run in, full in sight, sword swinging, and being amazingly....I don't know...classic?No again... considering that he just let Lidia off with a warning. He's holding her to her 'honor'... if she breaks it however...

He doesn't usually get violent... as is evidenced by the fact he didn't kick Chaos in the groin or stab you for calling him "Goth boy" and "an ass" respectively. He's just very draconian. If you steal, you are punished. If you kill without reason, you are punished. If you hurt someone without reason, you are punished. If you obstruct 'justice' you are punished.

And, of course, his primary punishment is death or dismemberment... comes with being draconian.

He also won't go out of his way to protect anyone that he's not suppose to be protecting. That just comes with having all his emotions buried, and being angsty if they weren't anyway.

Celes, I think that the pub is in the inn. Inns usually need a place to serve food, and drinks, to weary travellers, and since restaurants haven't been invented, the easiest way to keep potentially unruly travellers well fed would be to integrate the two.

Darth SS
04-17-2004, 12:05 AM
Krylo, I meant...


Okay, situation to do this.

Giant castle. We know that there's going to be tons of guards in the front entrance. The smart way to do things would be to sneak around the outside walls.

Does his sense of honor mean he would refuse to do that, or view it as cowardly, and he'd walk straight into the teeth of the huge legions of guards because it was honorable?

Or would he acknowledge that sneaking in would be much smarter, even though it was avoidance?

That works! I don't know if it was said that the pub was in the inn earlier, but it works the best.

I.E. Right now he's making sure Iris doesn't get killed for her father, so all someone would have to do is point out that going in the front way would probably get her killed.
