Well, the timeskip has been made. Everyone who is still with us, please, make sure your characters arrive to where Endar is waiting. Once he knows nobody else is coming, he'll address everybody.

Also... @Eisenhorn... this is your last chance to check in. You have both been online here on the guild, and made posts of significant length. I don't mind if you've lost interest, or if you didn't think it was moving along at a decent enough pace, but I would rather you had told me, PMs or otherwise, that you wouldn't be joining us.

I'm still with this, I'm just in Switzerland for a music course. I'll reply when I can!

*breaks out the poi for fire dancing*

Out of town for the weekend, but I will be able to post midweek

Doing a thing! Hopefully I'll have it up before noon.

@CollectorOfMyst So these fights are something of a big deal, yeah? Would it be too far beyond possibility if there's something of a festival/party going on to proceed it? Working on an idea and realized I ought to ask before I have the whole thing written out.

While festival might be a stretch, there would be a market that helps hype up some of the tournaments. So sort of like a festival, but almost not, if that makes any sense.

@Kymera I can personally see townspeople taking the tournament as a fantastic reason to party.

And, I now pronounce the arrival of Chapter One! The rest of our characters should reconvene whenever, but soon, but I sort of wanted to get someone in here as soon as possible, since they've been so enthusiastic about it.

I'm also announcing the removal of Eisenhorn from the Rp. Despite repeated requests, they've not returned. Now, there just lies the matter of Ansgar. There's two options we have right now;

1) We write out the character. Basically we find a reason for him not to return. This can be lack of confidence(cowardice), a sudden serious injury or death, unacceptable behaviour, or something else I haven't thought of.

2) Somebody else takes on the character. I'm a little apprehensive, since I wasn't planning on having anybody having two combatant characters, but given some of the story aspects I've started writing in, Ansgar would have to stay. This is actually my preferred option. Ansgar could receive some kind of injury that stops him from participating, but that all depends on everybody here.

So, this is a decision I want everybody to make together.

Also, I'm going to mention that Enzayne hoped to have their computer troubles fixed soon, so everybody send their thoughts/hopes/prayers/curses their way, got it?

Will do, boss.

Might I make a suggestion?

It might add a little bit if added tension to the plot if he were to be found dead? Endar obviously has enemies, otherwise he wouldn't be using a false name. And this could be a way of bringing some of that to light. None of the other gladiators need to know this is significant (aside from... You know. Death) since it's not uncommon for people to sabotage a team, but since it's Endar's team....

Well, each Chapter has its own individual plot, alongside the overarching one, but that might well work, yes. Especially for Chapter One's plot.

It's merely a suggestion. Up to you, since I know you've got ideas and plot laid out already.

I corrected your post for you. But this is why I'm asking everybody - it isn't just up to me - you guys are writing the story too.

(And I suppose a large part of the reason I want Ansgar to live is so that my Anslea ship can sail...)

Of all people to ship, I didn't expect the freakin' GM to be the one.

_{(note: while i personally don't ship i ain't got no thing against people that do kthxbye don't kill me plz)}

MUST I RAISE THE FIRES OF HELL UPON YOU, AMMOKKX?

I prefer the freezing cold version of hell.
