Working on an alternate map option, though I don't have any programs for that so I guess google drawings will have to do.

Do we have a commander for the Kingsguard yet? I have an idea for one but I thought I'd check if it was okay for me to take that position seeing as I'm playing the Queen as well.

@Leslie Hall

I have not noticed anyone claim that spot yet.

Mages beware

@Leslie Hall

Okay I only just saw your new character and I have not even read it at all yet, but.... Soooooo much Dark Souls. I didn't bother to bring it up with the queen, but oh boy are just all of your images Dark Souls. I guess its not actually a problem. Maybe with that out of my system I can actually read it.

@Cultural Titan In all honesty I was just very lazy and instead of looking for good fantasy pictures I thought I'd just cheat and use Dark Souls. I mean there's so many diverse weapon designs and characters that all fit the Fantasy genre so well.

I can assure you it's mostly just for appearances, and aside from very basic things (IE using Nashandra as a queen and Ciaran as an Assassin) I've tried to keep their personalities unique to the characters.

Plus Dark Souls is my favorite game and I'm a dirty fanboy

@Leslie Hall

Quick thought. While Sharp's (and the other Mistwalkers') lightsplitting has a magical trigger, it creates a real-world electromagnetic effect, so I wouldn't consider it an illusion. (bottom line is, Joan probably won't be able to see through it either. Might notice them making breathing noises tho, haha)

@Esterdi yes that's true. Joan's immunity is mostly to magic that directly afflicts the mind.

Okay so here is an alternate option for a map. it could probably use some changes so feel free to suggest anything from moving a town around to burning the whole thing to the ground so we can start again. I didn't really make this with a scale in mind and I tried to include as many places already mentioned by people in character sheets and from the last map.



@Leslie Hall I quite like Dark souls myself, though I think I like shooters too much to qualify it as my favorite game. As a side note for her first kill, being added as an assistant to the chef would be all well and good except for the fact that everyone should know that every child of that generation is a trained killer and her being hired would be a huge red flag to anyone. There are of course ways around this, but I figure I'd point it out because the biography doesn't address it.

So the queen may have been raped and Joan certainly would have been if she wasn't a trained killer.

I should probably touch up raven's character sheet. its looking a little lackluster in comparison.

@Cultural Titan I haven't played a lot of shooters but I do enjoy them sometimes. My friend always suggests Halo, but I've mostly played Killing Floor with buddies. That being said I'm playing Destiny atm with another friend. I... It's very hit or miss with me. Like I don't think it's bad, it's just not very spectacular and I kinda am bored of it already even though we are not that far in.

But anyway on the issue of thought chef thing, Joans kingdom of origin was at war with other kingdoms. Her first assignment would have been elaborately planned and executed to disguise her as a native of the kingdom she was invading. It doesn't tie it up completely but it's quite late here so I kind of expected to write something that didn't add up.

@Leslie Hall

I love Killing Floor. Seriously one of the best shooters. If I had a console I would stay away from destiny for a lot of reasons... Shooting on console blows, its published by Activision. What's left of Bungie seems to be made up of assholes. It charges way too much for its content. Its super grindy... etc. etc.

An... issue I guess. So if Joan fights someone they will die. Basically. Between high resistance to magic, incurable wounds and massive blood loss if Joan gets her hits in the opponent will die and I'm not entirely sure I'm okay with that. And maybe its just because I want raven to be a bit stupid op and she completely counters him to the point its not funny, but then again nobody else is likely to survive if Jan comes after them either.

This may also lead into a discussion about how over powered we want the dark side characters to be, I think for narrative purposes they should be quite a cut above the light side characters, or at least the dark lord and their inner circle. Additionally how may ways the light side characters should have of dealing with the dark side characters, like our dark lords super heavy, impressively enchanted armor.

Of course in bringing this up i will also need to acknowledge that nobody's anything has been accepted so who knows if this will even be a problem.

@Cultural Titan I mostly designed Joan to be as strong as she is because I thought that the commander of the kingsguard would have to be someone of considerable strength. So I'm not surprised that she seems a bit much.

I basically just wanted to create someone who could be considered a high threat to the dark side.

So when do we want to see an OOC?

Soon would be nice, but I have almost nothing to do with my time till I have classes again on Monday so yeah.

Is there still room left for someone dark?

@Legion02

I am okay with it. We are looking to end up a little outnumbered actually.

@Legion02

Yes, of course!

How badly do you think we're imbalanced, considering the people who say they're going to create another character and the people interested? I know he last count was 5 Dark and 8 Light, but I think that might have been changed a little since then, maybe??? I'm more than willing to make another character to fill the gaps.

@Firetigress3

Legion will bring dark to 6 characters and artificer has an incomplete undead elf for the dark side as well. bringing it up to seven. However 3 of those dark characters are incomplete or not submitted while only 2 of the light characters have not been submitted.

Of course I have no idea what is accepted, who is still playing or if there's something I missed so who knows how it will actually end up

@Cultural Titan

She's not immune to a crossbow bolt ;).
