Youngest in spirit <3

Then again, quirky and shy doesnt mix well with group speaking and stressful strangers. Btw, if your wondering about the frequency of her stutters, that why. (It's not a persistent trait of hers. Unlike articulating her words)

BL: Where as Shulbash may be the old worn out warrior of the group that really wants to make the Thalmor pay and a bit of a prisoner to his own dark side.

BL: Nah, Sorondil still has ya beat. He can really pull of that "Gettin real tired of this [&@%!] in this day and age.." Grizzled, old, and grumpy is totally in his ballpark

BL: For an Elf, Vila is practically still a child...

Good thing I have experience with being wise beyond my years, eh? :lol:

BL: But does he have potential anger issues with the Thalmor and the will to bring out the darker side as a neccessary evil? That and scare the younger Thalmor via brutal kills.

Replace "Humans" with "Thalmor", and yes. Yes, definitively.

I think dov was referring to Sorondil in that post, not Undyne

Don't shoot down my dreams like that.

BL: I'm wondering if Group 1 are going to do introductions too. We're missing all the juicy backstories going on in the other group, though I'm guessing at least half of us aren't too keen on sharing anyway, so it works out well.

BL: We're the social group. You guys do the wetworks. Though I guess Phillip and Vila are the only social butterflies around, so maybe I'll be eating my words.

BL: Shulbash is not one for words. Though if one is not fond of brutal violence, he may not think much of them due to him being skilled in being unneccessary brutality. Shame Velvet didn't put Fatalities in the RP.

Important Fallout Announcement:

I've been going back and forth on if I want to do this but I think I should because it's what's best for the RP. You've probably noticed things are a lot slower than they were back at the Chinese camp so I think I might use my supreme GM powers to skip us all ahead like 12 hours. Have the two groups meet back up and kickstart the endgame.

We could go through the ins and out of Rick & The Black Cats and what's going on at Vault 115, but that will take weeks if not months and I'm basically out of stuff for Rick to do now other than sit around. And following up on leads at the Vault will take a long time and may not ever go anywhere. I'm sure it'll be interesting but like I said, time consuming.

So I think what I'm going to do is skip ahead, have Rick and the Vault 115 gang meet back up at the US Base. Ask some questions to players via PM as I actually write the thing about what their characters would have done during certain events and circumstances and jump on ahead to the final act.

Yes, we are going to miss out on some fun stuff, I'm aware of that. But for pacing and just overall enjoyment of everyone involved I think it's for the best.

I'm pretty certain this is what I'm going to do but what do people think?

BL: DM wonders if Arya's comment about alcohol was intended as a slight against Phillip, who just admitted to his most earnest engagement in such unrestrained and displeasing activities. I haven't put them into the same group to find out anyways.


I'm working on it .

GRPDT: Just a heads up, I am in no position to reply for the next week. I'll do what I can but i'm pretty much unavailable to RP for most of next week due to a mixture of several job leads and other errands.

Why cant it just be a subtle self reflection? Given by personal experience?

I mean.. If she's already a disaster waiting to happen.. How would drinking help?

Edit: Oh Kerr Do you really think Arya would think others less than her? (Tho, hearing that she is a Direnni may make others think otherwise)

GRPD: Birthday and Anniversary stuff out of the way, so I'll drop an update or two tonight.

TA2: Now, i'm not saying I may have been trying to throw a lightning bolt Gwyn style(from Dark Souls) but I am attempting to do that. I believe it is possible in TES because, magic reasons. Lazy reason, yes but magic is magic. I think, we will just annoy it and I really should have Katlina mention using Restoration on it. Assuming Union is using Undead = Harmed by healing magic as an element of the magic system.

DAR: Guys, I have a bad feeling about me going to the Chantry. The last person with a voice inside them that visited a chantry, well, it wasn't a chantry afterwards.

TA2: There really isn't many non-Destruction spells that inflict direct damage <_< there's a reason for that, ya know?

Really, the only thing Restoration is good for against the undead is as a deterrent >_> like Circle of Protection or Turn Undead.. And I highly doubt they'll prove effective against such a powerful undead, at best, your just shining a flashlight in it's eye and making yourself a target.

Your just better if you stick to Fire. Undead are weak to fire. Everybody knows that

TA2: I may cast the Circle of Protection if the beast gets closer. Ooo, i wonder if it's possible to cast a barrier? I'm thinking of a typical magical dome barrier. Unsure if that would be classed as Alteration or Conjuration. If only one of us was a pyromancer. Just typical.

TA2: Did you not hear what I said That's not going to work. If anything, it's a circle of 'please kill me first'. Those sort of spells are only really viable if both A)It's low-level or weak undead or B)Your skilled enough to do cast a strong enough spell to make it count. It's not something you wanna use against a high level undead, but many, many low-levels(like a horde of thralls)

Also, a barrier? Possible? Yes. Possible by Katlina's standards? Absolutely not. Remember what happened when she tried that AOE 'Wrath of the gods' spell? Not only did she fail, but she expended so much Magicka that she basically KO'd herself

TA2: I actually don't recall that. To be fair, i've been quite busy since then. We could summon a Daedric prince or if anyone happens to be Dragonborn and has the amulet of kings, now is a good time to do something.

Dont listen to him, TLD. I think this is a solid plan. Katrina should give it a shot.

TA2: Or ya know.. We could blast it and force it ashore, like we had planned.. Tho that acid spit is going to be bothersome I wonder.. If we were somehow able to sever or pierce it's neck just right, next time it tries to spit at us, it'll just seep out that wound and at best further corrode it's rotten flesh

Or we could blind it.. But I'm willing to bet Union wont make that any easier on us. That's just baiting a rampage or for it to recklessly acid spray everything.. And it he wasn't going to then, he will now

TA2: If only Tarkus was a summon.

TA2:
@Union How far away is the serpent from the lake edge/us, would you say?
