[OOC] Blades of Iron Roses: A fantasy Knight RP

[VitaVitaAR]

I mean I'm a bit at a loss since the Princess's last action hasn't garnered much of a response.

[cloudystar]

should prob bug people then about it lol since it's been 2 weeks from the looks of it @VitaVitaAR

[VitaVitaAR]

No, I mean people have posted, but I honestly don't know what I can have the Princess do in response.

[cloudystar]

@VitaVitaAR
lol...good luck then. cuz apparently peeps want to join but are stuck somewhere else...i would just wrap it up sooner or later before the other events pile in. otherwise, things may get confusing...

[VitaVitaAR]

They're already in the RP.

[Raineh Daze]

And we're also... really close to finishing this arc so things will wrap up anyway.

[VitaVitaAR]

@cloudystar: Uh, Pholus really should know exactly who the captain is.

Also you should probably slow down and wait for more people to post.

[cloudystar]

@VitaVitaAR
alright then...

[Zetsuko]

@VitaVitaAR Ian's laying in the princess' lap hoping for pets and Gilian told a whole story about how he lost his arm. there's probably something to do in there.

I'm just kinda bummed about not being able to do anything...

[VitaVitaAR]

Princess is a bit preoccupied glaring daggers at Rinaldo, but... hmm.

[VitaVitaAR]

Okay uh...

There really needs to be more people who have been in the order at least a year or more.

[cloudystar]

@VitaVitaAR
I'm honestly just trying to see who's here and who'll RP and have fun...plus im waiting for that one RP leader to give the story the beast or whatever it is she's planning...MAKING ME SO CURIOUS XD

EDIT: does this mean everyone is back at base or approaching it?

[VitaVitaAR]

@cloudystar: Everyone's back at base. Also, the thing in ice is no longer a suit of armor, it's a little demon girl.

[harinezumikouken]

The doggy might not find a crazy halfgiant with poor impulse control that amusing at all D:

[Fyre Unholy]

• Name: Rörskoðr Skaldsson (Rōr'-skŏth Scald'-sən)

  
• Age: Early to mid thirties
• Gender: Male
• Appearance: Tall and buff, the man is no average joe. He stands over most people, towering at 6'11". He has stark blond hair, braided on top and shaven at the sides, with a long braided beard.
• Personality: He's a gentle fellow, and almost excessively sensitive to criticism, vitriol, and contempt in general. One of the more shy folks in the Order, he tends to make few friends but those he does consider his friends have earned his undying loyalty and trust. When forced to fight, he'll do so relentlessly; but until he is forced to, he will choose not to.
• Brief backstory: Before the order, far in the north where pines wear permanent cloaks of snow, he was training to best his clan's chieftain, and supplant him as leader. He learned how to fight and survive amongst the hardiest of men and quickly rose in the ranks of his people. Upon turning 18, deciding he was now truly a man and a warrior, his pride and his arrogance led him to challenge the chieftain in single combat, in order to back his claim. Although he was a capable warrior, and despite his enormous size, he was not destined to lead in combat nor in the courts. He was defeated in his challenge, and the scars he suffered remind him of his defeat to this very day. Humbled, he decided he does not wish to live a life of pain; not of inflicting it nor receiving it. So he packed his things, and resolving never to see again this place which humiliated him, headed south for the grand cities of aristocracy and prosperity and majesty. Here he would work til he could attend a university, where he would learn not to kill, but to heal.
  
  Today, he's been in the Order for approximately a decade, although he's gone mostly unnoticed by his peers. He's a surgeon, tending to people's wounds as they come. People seem to forget him even after he's tended their wounds, with how swiftly and skillfully he finishes the job and sends them on their way, in a few words. Although a surgeon, he's quite capable with a sword, and has gone with the Order to fight plenty of times. He tends to disappear for hours at a time before returning, and does not appreciate uninvited guests to his quarters.
• Equipment: He carries a sparðr axe to chop any limbs off; a long steel sword to deal the final blow for those in need of mercy; and a seax. For armor, he wears, atop a weathered gambeson, a byrnie and a shirt of leather lamellar. His helmet is nasal and conical in style, and to protect his legs he wears a set of iron leg-braces. His surgical tools include scalpels of steel and of knapped obsidian, a bone saw or two, antiseptics, various tinctures and essences, anesthetics...on and on.
• Skills: A field surgeon, he's there to keep men alive. He usually stays behind to tend to the wounded, but he's definitely capable of going into battle to do the same task. He'll try not to use that big axe until the very last moment, but he is certainly capable of doing so.

@AtomicNut Doggy might literally eat her.

@harinezumikouken

Bad doggy.

[VitaVitaAR]

@Fyre Unholy: Hmmm, I was initially uncertain but then I realized he doesn't seem intended to be a knight(since he'd need a bit more explanation on how he obtained knighthood), more that he's just for non-magic first aid and stuff, and can also fight.

In which case, accepted.

[harinezumikouken]

@AtomicNut - There's a reason the maids fear Ricard, and it's not just because he's fucking intimidating.
