To all whom it may concern,

The renowned guild and mercenary organization known as the Chapter is looking to expand its ranks. We are a varied and capable group of warriors, sorcerers and specialists from all races, creeds and walks of life that have come together to provide a common service to all citizens and rulers of Tamriel during these latest years of strife and unrest. Where the traditional institutions and governments that used to be responsible for maintaining peace, security and prosperity have been preoccupied with other matters, the Chapter stands ready.

Because of the demanding nature of our work, we are looking for individuals with a desire to do good (for a reasonable fee) that are in possession of the following skills:

  • All able-bodied men and women who are trained or experienced fighters with one or several schools of weapons and armor. Equipment will be provided as needed.
  • Skilled and knowledgeable mages, sorcerers, warlocks and witches. Formal training is preferred but not necessary. Necromancers need not apply.
  • Healers, be they alchemists, mages skilled in the esteemed school of Restoration or traditional physicians or medics. Experience with combat trauma is definitely preferred.
  • Those with specialized utilitarian skills such as rangers, scouts, treasure hunters, sailors, and even corsairs and thieves are all welcome. The Chapter is willing to give convicts wishing to reform a chance.
  • Last but not least, cooks, tailors, smiths, couriers, farmers and other craftsmen and -women. The Chapter aims to be a fully self-sufficient organization.

Interested individuals are encouraged to speak with their local Chapter representative or, if they are able, to travel to the Chapter's headquarters in the Great Forest of Cyrodiil, south of Chorrol.

The Chapter protects and the Chapter provides.



Hello and thank you for reading this far. As I was playing through Skyrim again with a few new mods installed I was struck by the simple beauty of one of them, which added notice boards throughout the game where I could find straightforward quests of do-goodery to perform in exchange for money. It occurred to me that it had been a long time since I had roleplayed an Elder Scrolls story on that scale, the simple jobs that need doing, instead of great events that shape the political nature of their age. Hence this RP.

The idea is to make a character-driven roleplay where the missions that we undertake mostly serve as a backdrop to develop the personal stories, camaraderie between and relationships of the characters themselves. I'm not looking to tell a story but to create a framework in which you, the player, can have a good time.

I am looking for players to perform these missions and quests, of course, but I am also very much looking for co-GMs to help me create, write and oversee them. I will be ultimately responsible for the overall maintenance of the RP, accepting new players, fully fleshing out the Chapter itself, RPing the leaders of the Chapter and describing the overall state of Tamriel during the years in which the RP takes place (somewhere not long after 4E201), and I will also be GMing my own missions, but I'm not looking to get bogged down creating the NPCs and minute details of every mission that the players partake in. I simply don't have the time nor the inclination. So if devising short, simple and sweet missions for some of the characters to complete, anywhere in Tamriel, sounds like fun to you, please let me know! There is no real big, overarching plot to consider, so you'll have almost total creative freedom. Look at it like a mini D&D session.

Please feel free to ask questions or leave suggestions below. Chapter's Dues is a working title by the by, so if you have a better idea, let's hear it!

Any other takers? If this doesn't garner enough traction this week I'll just shelve the idea for some other time.

EDIT: Or change some things around and run it as a very small-scale RP that just uses the Chapter as a vehicle for tiny missions. Options, options!

Same for me. I hardly dabble in Advanced for personal reasons but I have been told that I can write at an Advanced level in the past before, so we'll see.

I do like the idea, however. The concept of a group of adventurers that aren't world-changing heroes and are simply there to quest is always appealing to me.

I've thought about this and considering the amount of roleplays and other duties I already have on my plate, I'm proooobably going to turn this idea into a small, invite-only RP to start with, with potential for growth after we've found our footing. Thank you to all who showed interest! I'll reach out to those who I want to invite to begin with.
