TA2: Daww, Grelok will miss his buddy if they part ways here ...But at least Valentia is (probably) coming along!

DAR: Been giving you all the advice I could, m8. Constantly disregarding social conventions and laws isn't consequence free. This ain't a vidyo game. Maybe someone will intervene, or maybe Mira's head will fly through the portal, and headbutt her brother.

DAR: Nor is murdering people. (guess i need to create a new [&@%!] PC if Revas is successful. May just do Qunari Zaeed. :-p Or just a Vasoth. Or go back to one of my earlier ideas of a Grey Warden recruiter)

DAR: It's not as simple as just "murder", especially not for a Qunari. We're in the Fade, after being pulled through by a mage/demon. Qunari are already distrustful of mages as it is. Mira consistently displayed language showing willingness to break the law, to commit murder, and to refuse the commands of a templar--of the Knight Commander, no less. Half of her words would have been more than enough for a peasant mob to want to stone her to death.

It's not as simple as "murder" when all of her behavior is indicative of a psychopath, or in this case, an abomination. Between Lodds, Harry, Ashley, and Mira, allow me to personally advise you; carefully weigh every word your character speaks, as well as every action they make. Words say more than which exact words are spoken.

By continuing to speak, Mira shows defiance to the Circle's laws, and disregard towards Revas' threat. By aiming her gun at a non-hostile, Ashley displayed hostile, murderous intent. By fleeing the scene of a crime, committing several others, and refusing to admit any blame or make any compromise, Harry made himself completely untrustworthy. By threatening cannibalism, accusing a child of being evil, and opening fire on non hostiles, Lodds displayed dangerous mental instability.

I'd be dishonest if I didn't openly say that it's tiresome. I really don't want to keep being at odds with your characters, because it derails the story for others (including myself), and it directly affects the character development and party relations of myself and others. Compromise. Weigh words and actions. Guo and Grelok aren't the sort who would open fire if Elisa or Kat went nuts, but maybe other party members are.

Think of it in these terms; you are sitting on a bridge, when someone walking along casually points their rifle directly at you. How are you going to feel about that? --Someone with magic at their disposal (magic being widely feared and misunderstood) refuses to follow orders and openly displays aggressive tendencies, and decries the laws of men in favor of those of demons and spirits. How are you, a person who fears and misunderstands magic, going to feel about that?

Not well. It is tiresome, both as a player and as a character.

TA2: Btw, Union. I forgot to mention that I loved the Skald's song you wrote. It'd be great if someone sang it, with a bit of background bard music, and made it official!

Somebody, sound the horn! MUSICMAN! We need you, buddy!

TA2: I realised that i don't need to join the group. Can just go to Solitude with them then go my own way. Can see a minor argument occuring though. "We will not go through Solitude unless we have no other choice, miss Katlina."
"But why not rest at Solitude?"
"No, we will not go there."

"Ah, you fear what is inside." - Molag Bal.

TA2: I mean, I could sing it. I can sing, guys, that's a thing.

The song isn't metered correctly though. I would need to adjust the lyrics to something sing-able.

TA2: Or Nora can provide us with our offical traveling music! I think. Knowing our luck, we'll summon the TES version of Queen and they will seek to rock us to death via heavy metal.

Does that mean.......it's happening?!

TA2: I mean, don't hold your breath. I'd need a backing track and the only stringed instrument I can play is bass, and that's only rudimentary.

Plus, I can sing, but like... Okay-ish. XD

TA2: Of course I won't hold you to it - entirely up to you if you want to make us super happy and excited and thrilled...or not.

You could sound like a bag of cats, with a backing track of first-time violin players, and I'd be happy.

Seriously though, I'm just joking. Would be cool, but I'd imagine it would be quite a bit of work to do.

TA2: Sing us your siren song, or else riot.

TA2: I am legally obliged to inform you that i am banned from singing. Apparently, my voice is too deep for the fabrics of reality to handle and causes the earth itself to slowly tear itself apart.

TA2: I might not even be part of the RP, but if you need some dank violin or piano, hit me up.

TA2: It's gotta be skald-y, so tavern-y instruments are preferred. But thank you. <3

TA2: So, you would require a cup of SKALDING hot tea or coffee? *dons shades* YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! No? Wait, i'm being sent where? Also, did no-one hear Kat or just ignored her? Can't tell if Grelok ignored her question or not.

TA2: He didn't ignore it, he just can't really be arsed to explain it all to her right now. She said she was heading off on her own, so he just stated his own intentions.

TA2: Fair enough. If i am on my own, i may be forced to heal everything i see then inject myself with some kinda of virus to become a black hole sue. What? if Resident Evil can do it and still make cash, i can do with with TA2.


*hangs head in shame*

TA2: Dude, what does that even mean? Like, that's even more nonsensical and devoid of meaning than usual.

TA2: Oh my - Yellow trousers, Green top, Blue robe.
Not far off...

TA2: @Union: Oh I know, writing verses or songs ain't easy. Remember my spooky scarecrow in Yultia?

@Alarra: White Mane's for life? You n I? Get on our level peeps

TA2:
@Union: That song was awesome.
If you ever come up with a tune for it I might be able to do something with my flute. Or *maybe* piano keyboard (which can do like hundreds of instrument voices) if I find a good way to record it.

@Beta: Yup! I'm surprised someone else knew what they were and chose one, lol. *high fives*

TA2: I know. I would of gone with the Frost Mare but it just seems so out of place.. And may I just point out how is Midnight + Frost = White Mane? And how is it so rare and sought after? X(

DAR: Solen had told her to hush up. He told her to hush up tons. Mira didn't listen. He's not gonna help nor hinder this.

Fallout: Wow, three characters have disarmed already. Usually players are very resistant to disarming, even when it's really reasonable. "We don't want half a dozen strangers entering our settlement who are armed to the gills." I am surprised that Rick didn't try to hide one of his four knives on his person. Which would have been a sneak check if the guard searches you. Which he almost certainly will.

Lucas and Chris will probably hand over their weapons, I think the only person who might try arguing is Ashley.
