V in place of W, not in place of Th. Though after one edit, maybe it looks more French and less ambiguous.

@pugbutter: Okay, um, I know you saw the posts so I'm kind of confused as to why you didn't make a quick edit to acknowledge the other character in the scene. ^^;

Yes, but not to include the other character in the scene talking directly to your character and the other two.

With all due respect: what are you talking about?

nodding approvingly with the appraisal already given.

There wasn't a clear indication of who that was in response to, so it didn't seem like she'd been acknowledged.

I can see that this man has very warped priorities of what to consider strange.

How frightening and perplexing should a slightly taller than average suit of armor be to him?

On a scale from "demon armor trapped in ice which has turned into a little girl" to "fifteen foot tall direwolf that can talk and is apparently also a member of the peerage," that is. ;)

Wrong character. This is another one of the surviving founding knights who is using magic to project herself here for now.

Also as far as I can tell "Sir Ricard" can't talk and "Sir" isn't actually denoting knighthood. I spent a rather long time talking this over with @harinezumikouken.

Wrong character. The armour's not remarkable as she's nearly part of the furniture.

Those would also be strange--though I'm not sure the wolf's a member of the peerage rather than just... oddly named. He's finding a doctor stranger than the person in clothes from another continent... who's an archmage that hasn't been seen for years. And has a portrait around here.

Fair bit stranger than meeting a surgeon.

Odd that you'd rate meeting a GP as stranger than meeting Faraday or Curie or something. Or, more generally, meeting a common type of person is stranger than a specific person with no reason to be there?

As I said, unusual priorities. It makes no sense intuitively or probabilistically. :T

He might be more impressed by seeing her in action for himself than having his author/player be told OOC that she's amazing. :) All she's done so far is mumble in a monotone and "be eerie."

Which... is why there is a character background field. And the helpful note in the post that she has a portrait? Because there's a limit to showing "this character is actually well known" with only my own posts. It's a roleplay, not a book; people have to actually co-operate for certain things to be shown.

Ah, but knowing her character background field would be metagaming, wouldn't it? Or does her application exist IC somewhere in the library? :o

No, unless you consider reading the world information to be metagaming. There's always going to be parts of character backgrounds that are common knowledge. Something as part of the public history of the knights as 'was one of the founders' isn't metagaming in the slightest. And the post mentioned a portrait and the 'well-known' part as a secondary note. Ignoring both of them means selectively choosing canon--not a choice that leads to a world with the slightest bit of coherency.

Not to mention how much more metagaming recognising a burly stranger as a surgeon in the knights would be if character backgrounds are supposedly beyond IC knowledge.
