Sorry about that, I've been busy lately.

I'm REALLY sorry for forgetting this for so long, but I will post tomorrow.

Am here, did post

I'm still in as well

@Lucius Cypher Is this still going?

Should be. I’m just a lazy kraught. Lemme see what I can do.

@Lucius Cypher Friendly poke.

@Lucius Cypher Forgive me for being so blunt. But the last post was almost a month ago, and the last OOC update was 9 days after the post. (One day after I gave the 2nd reminder.) I think a good general rule is nothing active should have a week long gap of posts (or explanation as to why it's taking this amount of time.) And it doesn't strike me as IRL stuff, when posts are happening frequently, elsewhere.

As a GM, it really wouldn't hurt to roll call and @ everyone when these types of delays occur. Especially, if there's no activity for days after you post. (Because I didn't even know the follow up post happened until just now.) I kind of want to know if everyone's even still aware of this. And if you're just running low on creative fuel for this, it might be nice to officially say so. (Basically, I'd likely kindly drop out myself, if this kind of thing happened in future. Not meant to be rude or personal, but it's a pretty hefty time sink for the amount of actual progress made and I'd start to have my doubts that it would reach a conclusion.)

@SleepingSilence

It’s a fair Criticism. I’ll admit my issue for posting here isn’t so much creative drive (got lots of ideas planned out) as much as it is a personal one. Simply can’t find the energy at times to crank out a post, especially one that will require a hefty amount of exposition on my end to explain certain things. I’ll respect your decision to withdraw, as frankly until I can find a way out of my funk, infrequent posts from myself may be a regular occurrence for this RP. Just as well of course, I’ll not hold it against any of my players for being slow to post either, or choosing to withdraw if my speed is not to your liking.

Well... I can continue also here. I will post tomorrow probably if people are still going to continue this

I'm still here, and sorry if I'm posting slowly. Last week was kinda stuffed with assignments.

I'm generally feeling a little frustrated by what I see as a lack of PC control, initiative, meaningful choice. Like the gm is leading us through a fully preset story and the pc's are just reacting to it. I'm not trying to point fingers at anyone in particular - everyone is a part of this structure, including me. Unfortunately, I'm pretty busy and haven't had the mental energy to think much about changing this expected structure. It might be worth figuring out how the pc's can contribute more to plot choices, or if anyone else is feeling like me, idk.

I know I said I would post today but kinda slipped out of my mind... and ya Zanavy, kinda had a bit of the same feeling just a bit.

@Zanavy

Tis a fair criticism. Frankly I think it was a bad idea to have you guys start directly at level 1, since that doesn't really give any of you all any particular abilities, not to mention naturally everyone is just kinda following my NPC's around. I'll do my best to fix this, and I'd hope that what's about to happen in the forest will give everyone more of an opportunity to do some more open world stuff.

I suppose at this point I may as well say it plainly, the rain itself is a very unusual thing, and "passing" this area involves solving why there is still rain going on. Figuring that out and naturally defeating the boss responsible will end the rain, give some insight about how and why you all came here, and at least a direction to go. What you do with that information is naturally up to the players.
