Sounds good, I can always quickly wrap things up, was just waiting to wrap up the interaction with @Gisk and @Royaletutor59.

I moved the story along to the first night on the road. If anybody needs a scene for any idea they wanted to carry out, just let me know. As always, nobody is going be kicked out for missing an update so feel free to post when you can! I'm aiming to post another update next weekend or sooner if everybody (or the vast majority of players) catches up.

All being well, I should be able to have my response up at like 2am tomorrow, probably write it on the flight back, can't wait to jump back into this!

Also please ignore both my posts. I tried editing the first to actually move it back a bit (posted to eagerly thinking others would move the story on faster than it actually was), and accidently reposted it instead of writing...

Sorry about the latter half of my post, I was tired and wanted it done so the quality fell off a bit. I'll try and edit it to pretty it up without changing what happens.

Edit, also sorry @Blenheim for not getting my post done sooner and causing your need to 'rewind'.

Edit 2: Don't worry about rewinding to match up with my post. I'll be editing in a bit about him missing the group (due to his low light vision I think).

Hey, guys, it's all cool. Bleinheim, continue as normal dude. Same to everybody else. I'll work with Luckless. For the time being, his character is on a, ah, "side quest" so to speak. I'll catch him up to the rest of you in good time!

Glad to post again. :)

Also, glad we resolved the issues of chronology (but no one should feel bad, it happens).

Small reply but something ;)

Looking forward to playing the gradual transition and putting in subtle hints as the camaraderie grows and he develops affection for the group/others.

Hey, Blenheim. I found something that might interest you.

youtube.com/watch?v=-xIhCesfbYA

- Addendum -

This is not an official thing, but I have an unused Discord. If you guys, for any reason, need to have a real-time chat with me then visit here. Similarly, you can use this for collabs if you don't want to give real names or whatever.

discord.gg/PTr9GR3

- Second Addendum -

I added a short, hopefully, fun description of each player on the front page. I'll put it in a Hider here. Please let me know if any of you take issue with the one-liner descriptions. They're supposed to be fun and relevant to the character.

I might add some things off-and-on as I find time. Do let me know if there is anything you want me to go into greater detail on for the front page.


1x Thank Thank

@One Who Tames I actually saw that video when I was researching haha. I do love Shadiversity. Him, Skaldrim, Man at Arms: Reforged, and Lindeybeigh are probably my favourite non-gaming channels.

@Luckless Heh, good!

@Blenheim Nice. He is a good source od information but I find him difficult to listen to. Never heard of Lindeyeigh.

I do a fair bit of amateur study on Ancient and Medieval stuff. Historia Civilis is good for Greek, Macedonian and mostly Roman history. Bazz Battles and Kings and Generals are also good if you’re looking for more of a military perspective.

Good posts by the way! I will wait for the group to sort out their new member then move the story along.

@One Who Tames My areas for history are more based around more modern history, with the bulk of my knowledge being ww1 and ww2 (including the history of Germany as a nation all the way through Hitler's rise to power in the Reichstag).

Lindeybeigh actually covers a lot of topics on his channel. He covers medieval weaponry tactics, along with weapon forging techniques, a small amount of LARP (not really my cup of tea to be honest), World War tactics, and analysis of the 'effectiveness of war through time, such as 'how many bullets expended vs enemies killed', reasons for troops fleeing battle, and soldiers being scared of killing opposing combatants. Quite interesting if you want to look at history from a psychoanalytical perspective.

And thanks, I honestly just had so much to say that would be skipped over if it wasn't said now. So just watch my next posts be like two sentences long again until the anger and ranting builds up lol

Seeing as it's nearly midnight, y'all don't need to worry about me prattling on for another 10 hours or so. G'night!

No worries, mate. I know people don't always have a lot to write about. I'm just as happy as a quick couple lines so I know people are still invested than nothing at all. Inspiration will strike when it is good and ready. When it does, then we see the really good posts! So keep doing what you're doing.

Earlier in my life I did a lot of study on battles, WWII in specific. Military stuff and the things that make other things go boom were the things I liked. As I grew up, I steadily become just as interested in the reasons for war. I enjoy psychology and try to work what I know into my worlds and posts. You guys haven't gotten to see a lot of NPCs yet but I've been busy fleshing people out.

Small note about maps; you guys wouldn't often have seen topographical maps in your lives. In fact, you could have gone your whole life without seeing one. The vast majority of maps are simply road maps showing which roads link to which towns with maybe some notes in between. Mind you, I'm not taking your map away. That kind of map would be extremely helpful for a bandit and you're just as likely as anybody to have one.

Nice post @Blenheim. I asked the same questions to our GM in PM when setting up the character. It'll be interesting these next handful of posts.
