I'm in charge, and we haven't even gotten into the castle or introduced the Eye of the Serpent yet.

We're not going to get to the actual attack for a little while now. It's not even a secret weapon, it's a family heirloom that, unbeknownst to the UMMA, is actually part of a superweapon. They know Shadow Eternity wants it for probably unsavory reasons, though.
Um, what?
I thought I transported straight into the castle.
Others are talking with the ghost maid and I even issued some words to the Queen which haven't got an answer yet.
Seriously, way to drag the plot.

Of course we need actually something going instead of players randomly socializing. We can't just jump to the fight if the Queen haven't even "briefed" us on the "quest" yet.
But the idea of having all characters walk to her instead of already being there is just dragging things too long.
So I hope you can consider this.

@Willy Vereb: All the characters have already been briefed, and they are not actually inside the castle. Your character, too, should have been briefed, which happened before they even entered the world.

I am actually attempting to display some of the world and characters in it, as well as the layout of the castle and the Eye of the Serpent.

While action is certainly part of this RP, there's more then just action.

The Queen is already with the characters as well, leading them to the castle.

I'm going to be posting again in a couple scenes, including the castle, again today.

Well, yeah. Don't mind if it's more than action but all players I read in the OOC were quite prepared for the battle to start.
You said that the Queen haven't even told us yet about the secret of the treause she has so that's what I meant by "briefing".
I certainly don't mind character development or generally some interaction but it seemed players were put in the limbo and only trying to pass the time.

We literally just showed up, dude. There was just the one brief, minor interaction with the maid that delayed getting inside the castle.

This is just me, but I don't feel like I was put in limbo. A straightforward "the agents and affiliates were taken to the castle" without wiggle room for characters to take it in is a bit boring. I'm not quite sure where you're getting the "prepared for battle" bit either? I mean, I'm all for action, but I was pretty aware that it wasn't going to be a slugfest immediately off the bat.

So wait, where is everyone at Castle Tepes right now? You've gotten into the courtyard, right?

So, the portal we're going through IS to the castle, right?

Oh, wait. In retrospect I kinda forgot there was an actual team waiting to steal the eye. Sorry, I just kinda skimmed around for posts from the people who were actually at the castle.

@Earnest Evans: We're all now entering the castle itself, and from the sounds of it we're going to visit the Eye of the Serpent's chamber next.

Right, but where have you been? Have you been sitting just outside the castle gates, or are you in the castle courtyard?

That was... a thing...

Let's see what happens.

I wasn't originally planning on her telling anyone she had a family but, honestly, knowing her, she would say what she has to for people to leave her alone or at least be nicer.

Shivani - New Orleans ==> Nox
Shivani sighed and stepped through immediately heading to stand by the door. With a glance over her shoulder, she opened it and looked through before stepping through to lean against the wall beside the door. She reached in her pack, pulling out a drawn picture of her wife and adopted daughters. She growled and punched the wall before stomping back into the room, probably interrupting what was going on.


What exactly is this referring to? We've stepped through the teleporter, and are now nearby, but not inside, Castle Tepes.

Considering how thematically similar he is to Sir Frederick Selous, I'd probably put him close to where he is, so you can really get that "they're foils to each other" thing going.
