@POOHEAD189High Rock is my pet-project in this RP, seeing as I played it in the NRP this spun out of. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me the CS and we can work together on it.


Damnit, here I was thinking that I could keep getting away with condensating all Western European cultures into High Rock.

Well you're not completely wrong Lore wise, with them using Celtic/Gaelic/Gallic/Anglo Saxon names.

@POOHEAD189There's also a few Germanic/Norman names the further east you move because of it getting closer to Hjaalmarch around Northpoint and Jehanna.

FoC canon, the King of Jehanna is a Nord who rose from being a warchief in Hjaalmarch that came to claim his cousin's throne. I ran it a lot like GoT and Crusader Kings in the NRP. I was watching/playing a lot of both at the time.

@PeikI mean, you can. I was canonizing Fiore and Liechtenauer Fechtbuchs as fencing treatises under not!Fiore/Liechtenauer. Though, I was pulling mainly from 13th-15th century Europe, with Jehanna being a little 1000s Scandinavia, all with the court-intrigue and feuding turned up to 11 in accordance with it being filled with Bretons.

My mind is blank, and my explanation is equally so.

Oh yeah m8, "Look hither, it's a house of seven gables" or "Is that vampire count from Monte Cristo", or "I knew this woman, Jane Eyre".

Don't let context stop you, I've referenced Discworld probably four times and we're not even on flat planet riding on the back of four elephants atop of a cosmic turtle.

Reminds me of buddhist Koans.

A monk asked Master Haryo, “What is the way?”
Haryo said, “An open-eyed man falling into the well.”

What kind of good things?

Like our free lunch buffets, Sunday night orgies, or competitive Hungry Hungry Hippo tournaments?

You mean you didn't get your invite in the mail?

Let's blame Shafty boy for that one.

He's always dicking around.

Now that our hall of famers have been properly inducted, it is time for the next community activity. Before anything, know that new community activities will be introduced every ten days (subject to change), and will be OOC focused.

Our first one is fairly simple: what happens if your FoC character(s) meets another one of your characters from another RP? Things to write about are conversations, observations and possible trade/exchange. Try not to do bloody murder, as the interdimensional godhead frowns upon such behavior.

Due ten days from now; get started!

Oh boy!

Sevine meets Vera Addley! ;D she'd probably tell her to sober her ass up. But I'd love to write something like this! I just finished working on The Twelfth Labors contest that's run by Terminal. I like this idea a lot :)

Mucho bueno @gcold

@gcold That sounds like an amazing prompt! (By the way, sorry for not participating in the first one; I have only been around for a few pages so I didn't feel like I've seen/participated in enough to have a say in the voting.) I do have a quick question, though: would it be acceptable for me to use a character not present in an RP on this site? My two most active RPs/PRPs are Elder-Scrolls themed, and I'd like to use a character from outside the universe.
