Hm. Giles and Beatrice are who I'd have picked to put on the list, aye. I like all the small things you guys [Namely Duncan and Fox] are doing just as little interest things and as reference material [that page Fox made is incredibly user-friendly].

I'll begin working on something to put up now, and I'll have it up as soon as conveniently able

Awww thank you! That's what the reference page is there for (:

Right the collab between me and AndrewCopper is finally up. Sorry about the delay.

So after your collab, are we now brought up to the fortnight that has passed where all of the nobles have arrived to begin the meeting? Or is this occuring a day after the trial, or the same day? Just curious so I can start a post for Aurelia.

@MacabreFox Not quite yet. Phoenixwhite and Cold Hands still need to get their posts up first. After that we will skip directly to the meeting.

Hey everyone, excited to see how the meeting of succession goes and also wanted to say that I am a real person and I do exist and I'm not a robot.

I guess it should be established if the steel fist will be guarding the ordeal?

@AndrewCooper Ha, you haven't commented in the OOC for nearly half a year and when you do that is what you decide to say, lol :p . Looking forward to your next post Andy :) .

@Klomster Indeed. I believe some will be guarding the keep, some will be guarding the city and some (including Claus) may be guarding the meeting it'self. But given they are your soldiers you can decided where and what you want them to guard.

Also I think this would be a good time to establish in further detail about views on Gender and Sexual Orientation within Formaroth: As I said on the OOC gender is pretty much a non issue in Formaroth. No one is under any restrictions when is comes to gender despite it being a medieval setting. For example a woman would be free to join the army and become a soldier, though men are still more likely to be soldiers than women, seeing a female soldier wouldn't be considered to be an unusual or rare sight at all in Formaroth. Another example would be with such roles as a nursemaid; though more women would be more likely be nursemaids than men a man would not be prohibited or criticised for becoming one.

However this got me thinking about succession and family names: In Formaroth it is the eldest child who inherits titles and land regardless of gender. As for marriage and who takes up the family name: normally the family with the most power/authority takes however it is not necessarily the case. Whoever takes up the family name would very much be a matter of political interest; for example if a member of a powerful noble family were to take up the name of a lower noble family than the lower noble family would rise on the scale of importance.

As for sexual orientation: Homosexual marriage is allowed in Formaroth and among the lower and middle class is not an issue. However in the noble families it may cause problems; considering that noble families want to carry on the bloodline of their families having a eldest child who is homosexual may be considered to be a problem. Therefore many nobles will rather harshly force their son or daughter to marry someone of the opposite sex regardless of their child orientation. However many noble families go against this cruel and narrow minded practise and will allow their children to marry whomever they wish.

If you have any question regarding what I have wrote please let me know.

He loved his dad the most Because though he learned his fighting skills. He got spotten by someone of the magic circle after half a year. He was able to study destruction magic and healing magic. He had a great time learning magic, this was also due to the fact that he was one of the best students at that time.

@twannyman Though I am more than happy for you to join the RP I will have to ask you to change your back story about the dragon given that Dragons are currently untrainable in the world of Formaroth. If you wish to base your story around being the first person to be able to train a dragon then you are free to do that. But I can't have you start the RP with a dragon already under your control, also if you are going to do that story line then it will have to be a long term goal and not something that happens right at the beginning of Gabanre's story. One final point; you may also want to consider how your character's story will feed into the main story of the RP (battle for the throne). Your story doesn't have to be directly related but if it isn't then Gabanre may end up having no relevance to the overarching story. Look forward to hearing back from you.

@TheDuncanMorgan

I had a Back-up ready and edited my Character. I noticed later that dragons are untrainable ATM, that was my bad.

@twannyman That is fine for a character and will work perfectly for the RP :). I would recommend doing the following things though:

1) Fire Magic is a type of destruction magic and the mage circle would have taught him destruction magic instead of just fire.
2) If you can, add in a bit more detail about your character's background.
3) Re-check grammar and spelling. I know this is a slight nit pick but it is still important.

@TheDuncanMorgan

My grammar is mostly due to ipad autocorrection. Sorry if it is Annoying. I am using my pc for most of the Large typing

Do you have any recommandation what i Should add.
Do i post my PC at the charaters tab?

@twannyman I understand. Autocorrect can be a pain sometimes :/.

Here are my recommendations. But remember it's your character and you are free to create your character however you want (as long as if it fits in with the lore and theme of the RP).

Childhood:
>Where he lived? Kingdom, settlement, was he poor or fairly well off?
>What adventure his father went on? (perhaps a adventure into the abandoned Dwarven cities may be a good idea)
>What was Gabanre view on his mother and father? did he love them, hate them, respect them, etc
>Where did he learn his sword fighting skills? Did his father teach him

Mage Circle:
>How did he find his time at the mage circle
>How successful was he compared to the other students? Novice, Average, Star Pupil
>Considering the war for the throne hasn't started yet it would have been more likely he heard about the death of king John and decided to become a mercenary then. Which would also mean he would be quite new as a mercenary.

Motives:
>What are Gabanre's motives? Gold, Power, getting a high position on the political hierarchy
>What are his morals like? Good, Bad, neutral

Appearance:
The picture you gave was fine, but maybe you could add things like his height and clothes, also you may want to change his hair given that outside of the world of anime blue hair isn't exactly natural :p.

Once you have made these changes send me a PM and I will check it over to make sure everything is fine. After that you will be free to add it to the character tab :).

edit: wow. Didn't know that angle brackets changed the colour :)

@twannyman He could colour his hair blue.

I mean, there are mages, someone have probably come up with a good hair dye.
---------

Also, on the topic of guarding.
I don't recall actually getting an official work order, so i can't really write up something without it.
Although i suppose i could write how Claus station his men and go around giving orders and interacting with the event after it is posted, and just have gotten a letter with the work order he later collects after the work is done.

I suppose i should write up how Claus goes and meets up with some of his men as well.
There are so many things i should do :(

@twannyman On the topic of hair, perhaps he was blasted by some type of spell at the school by a pupil, and it turned his hair blue, and he hasn't been able to change it back. But like @Klomster said, he could have it coloured, that would be more feasible, but if he doesn't maintain it, it will fade to his natural color. That's if your insistent that he keeps the hair color. You could always go for blue-black, where it reflects blue in light.

@Klomster I send you a PM know with a letter regarding your work order attached.

Alright, time to write something.

@TheDuncanMorgan
Am i allowed to post something? Or should i wait for someone interacting with me?

@twannyman Please feel free to post. I would recommend starting your intro post in Nyhem given that is where everything is currently happening.

@TheDuncanMorgan
Ok Thx, since i am going to have a nap in about an hour, it Will be tommorow, since i am using ipad atm.
