I like him. He brings a heavy Norse vibe to this that'll provide a nice contrast to the Medieval European Brythunnians. Although, I'm wondering how we're going to bring these folks together. I also think tracking down one of the king's bastards is a good starting point, but I feel like there needs to be some other shenanigans going on. Just throwing it out there, I'm all for the Crownlands and the Heartlands getting embroiled in some kind of conflict. Maybe not a full-scale war, but something nasty with serious ramifications.

We'll work something out as the RP goes along. Like I said, I don't mind solo RPing for a while. Baldr will end up raiding the eastern coast of Brythunnia (the Crownlands?), or further north. If there's some kind of internal conflict between the characters, Baldr and his people could cooperate with one side or the other in the form of mercenaries (called the Jomsvikings in reality), or something.

Oh, I know we'll work something out, and I'm good with illustrating the state of the Heartlands for a few posts. I also know that interacting with other characters, played by other writers, is the bread and butter of RPing. No worries. Just brainstorming because I'm excited for this to get going. Also, I'm bored at Thanksgiving with my folks lol.

@Ozymandias I'll approve the Jarl of Jomsborg, the northern badass. Move him to the characters.

I PMed Sonatina the other day, asking if she was still interested in this. I haven't gotten a response yet. Not sure what that means, but there you go.

She's been awfully quiet. I've also tried to contact her, as you might have noticed. Don't know if she is still interested.

Hmmm...give her until the end of the week and then move on? She could be with family or something due to the holidays. Might give us some time to come up with new story ideas just in case the 'Royal Assassin hunting the king's bastard' angle doesn't pan out.

I'll wait until Sunday. Until then, we could brainstorm a couple angles more.

I did Nazi that coming, Ozymandias.

So...any thoughts? I still think some sort of conflict between the Crownlands and the Heartlands might be interesting.

A conflict would definitely allow characters to interact, particularly noble characters.

True, and it would also still make Jaden Cain relevant. Kings tend to die during nasty wars. And maybe Baldr decides a period of unrest is the best time to launch a raid deep into Brythunnian territory? It brings all our characters together, though maybe not all at once. Gotta love a good, old-fashioned dustup for bringing folks together.

I am thinking of making another character to fill Claret's place if Sonatina doesn't show interest by tomorrow.

And to sidetrack, today I found the extended editions of the Lord of the Rings movies. I couldn't be happier!

Might be a good idea. And nice! That's quite a find.

That trilogy is among my favorite movies, and was one of the reasons why I started to read fantasy.

I'm back! Sorry I've been quiet, I was traveling to see family for the holidays. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!

Also I'm good with the spy hunting down bastards option, just let me clean up my CS: I wrote it in a huge rush.

She lives! Sweet! I can already foresee many awkward conversations between Gwen and Claret. :) Looking forward to getting this bad boy off the ground.

@Sonatina Welcome back! Now I don't have to write another character. Also, I approve Claret.
