I have a couple questions. First of all, what exactly is sexism like in this world? Is it subtle or blunt? I'm assuming that it still exists, seeing as it has played a major role in history, but to what extent? Also, I'm having trouble deciding on what Joan's job should be. Any ideas?
Post up. I've named the night owl Overseer, and also established him as being the other one in the room with Gilles De Rais. Also, did you know that ravens can mimic voices pretty well? I actually didn't when I came up with this character, but damn that is useful to know.
Oh, and @AdobeFlash, don't feel like you've got to wait on Edgar to come find Bram or anything - Edgar's going to go looking for him, but they can run into each other when they run into each other.

I'm sorry, I'm just not really posting today because I'm super tired. Tomorrow though.
I'll be getting a post up within the next few days. @vosenedich I'm gonna be having Arthur try and find Merlin to discuss the strange note he got from Sam Adams
@duskshine749 go ahead and do so. I've been incredibly busy the past 2 days, so I haven't gotten around reading the posts in detail, but I think Merlin most likely is somewhere around the library, making sure that the place is impecable in case the lord and guests want to relax there after the banquet.

Sexism depends on the ruler in charge. Some may care. Some may not. Among the three notable NPCs - Crassus, Caesar, and Pompey, they're sexist. Sam Adams not so much. But it depends on the personality of the NPCs. Because Caesar and Pompey are sexist, the Aiwren military is solely comprised of men.
You would have to submit Joan's profile under the format that's posted for this game for me to determine what role she would have. Or to even have an idea to suggest one.
@ShaggyDoo0You'll have a partner on your hunting team. It'll be Moose's character Joan of Arc. The overseers think she's a pretty boy, so...it'll probably be wise for Robin to keep the fact that she's actually a girl a secret between the two of them. :)
Prince of the plunder, The unrelenting warrior to his enemy; Heavy was he in his vengeance; Terrible was his fighting.
When he would drink from a horn, He would drink as much as four; When into battle he came He slew as would a hundred.
Unless God should accomplish it, Cei's death would be unattainable.
Worthy Cei and Llachau Used to fight battles, Before the pain of livid spears [ended the conflict].
On the top of Ystarfingun Cei slew nine witches. Worthy Cei went to Ynys Mon To destroy lions. Little protection did his shield offer Against Palug's Cat
Age: 12 Eye Color: Grey Hair Color: Brown Height: 5'2" Weight: 138 lbs Physique: Broad-shouldered and strong, the build of someone who's done nothing but hard labour their entire life. Complexion: Caucasian, though heavily tanned from years spent working outdoors. Immunities: Fire, Fatigue, The Cold. Weaknesses: Incredibly stubborn and short-tempered, Cai does not easily give up or give in even when he really, really should, often leading him into situations way over his head. It was in fact these traits that made him angrily part ways with Arthur in his past life and led him to his death.
Titles & Feats: None as of yet.
Basic Personality: Sharp-tongued, strong-willed and clever in the worst possible way, to those who don't know him, Cai comes across as a cold-hearted, sarcastic asshole. Those that do know him however, know that beneath his harsh exterior lies a young man with a big heart; one who wordlessly drops things pilfered from his field work into their morning porridge when the Overseers aren't looking (wild berries mostly, the occasional herb when they're looking ill), who helps them out with their daily chores when he can to spare them the lash and who may or may not have been the one who fed and cared for some of the younger slaves when they were very little (which may or may not have also involved piggybacks, bedtime stories and 'upsies' when the other slaves his age weren't looking), leaving them to see him more as an abrasive, yet pradoxically doting older brother.
Psychological/Social Issues: In his past life, Cai died feeling angry and betrayed by Arthur, which manifests itself as open disdain for the younger boy in his present incarnation... and a profound, but unspoken sadness that he cannot explain.
Appearance: Though broad-shouldered and strong for his age, Cai doesn't stand out too much from the other slaves; with a shaved head, a pair of heavily calloused hands and the constant presence of dirt beneath his short fingernails. He does, however, raise a few brows with the countless scars on his back, chest and shoulders wrought on him by the lash that are always in plain view as the only clothes he has are a pair of sackcloth pants.
Natural Abilities:
Warrior of Prydain: An echo of his past self; though he naturally prefers a sword, nearly anything Cai can get a hold of can become a deadly weapon in his hands... not that those hands themselves should be underestimated either.
Unrelenting: To call Cai 'tough' would be a vast understatement. To put it bluntly; Cai will not tire, will not give up and will simply keep coming until he's either victorious, dead, knocked out or has his attention forced elsewhere.
Power:
A Fire Within (Stage One): Within Cai burns a supernatural flame, constantly fueling his body, ensuring he never tires and causing him to radiate an unnatural heat. This fire burns any wounds he takes shut and welds any bones he breaks back together again... though it is far from a perfect cure-all; the process leaves behind grisly scars and cannot regrow lost limbs. And should his head part company with his neck, he would be dead as anyone else.
Companion: None as of yet.
Relations:
(As for what happened between Arthur and Cai in their past lives? Well, I've been racking my head, mixing and matching the various Arthurian myths and would like to propose something that I think would be pretty decent for RP's sake.)
Is there still characters needed, and furthermore, is cremend still in need of a leader? If so I'd like to make a player character leader of cremend who's based off of the legend of Fafnir.

Well, I doubt your character would be a ruler yet, seeing as all the characters start as slave children. But I'm not the GM, so my word is not law.
Also, do you want Fafnir because of the dragon thing?
Hey, ill try and put a post up involving everyone who is in the servant's quarters either today or tomorrow. If you come up with something before i post that you want to throw in that happens in the servant's quarters, go ahead and post it. Ill include Robin's reaction in my post.
So how are we going with posting in this RP? I know there's no order, I just personally don't really like going me, someone, me for my posts. So I'd like someone to post before I reply to Merlin IC. Unless we're just saying post all you'd like, then I could probably get another post up in a day or two
