[OOC] Avalon: A Tale of Arthurian Legend

[AmongHeroes]

@Clumsywordsmith-A great read. Definitely accepted.

[Gowi]

I"m tentatively interested, but I've got a bit of a RP schedule going on. But if the possibility is left open I might take it, plus someone keeps prodding me to join and I just met them today!

[Rockette]

@Gowi - Get on it, we hustling now!

[Rockette]

@icmasticc - Shamelessly prodding at someone else to join too.

Quick question before I start working on a character: I don't think it will be a big deal, considering the plate armour I've been seeing, but how strictly if at all are we avoiding anachronism stew here? Mainly in regards to styles of combat that did not exist in the 5th and 6th centuries (Sword and dagger fighting, etc.) considering if we went away with ALL anachronisms then there'd be a slight problem with including knights (8th century) or jousting (high middle ages) at all.

I suppose the question sorta resolved itself as it went on. Anything short of gunpowder era arms/tactics goes I assume?

If you're worried about historical accuracy, this is not the RP for you.

[Snagglepuss89]

Hah, fair enough, that.

[icmasticc]

I've not been able to post in a long while due to the sudden and sad destruction of my tech empire, but I've just now been able to get up and running again. I mean to come back and get to writing again and this RP looks to be an interesting vehicle to facilitate that urge.

If you'll have me, Heroes, I'd surely want to join up with you once more.

[AmongHeroes]

@icmasticc-I'd be glad to have you.

[icmasticc]

Then I'll get to work on a character sheet. Since I'm still in the midst of my days off, I should be able to have one up tonight or tomorrow. Tomorrow more than like since I'm currently scheduled to put my PC together in a few, but yeah lol.

[Rockette]

@icmasticc - I'm going to hustle you too, get on it. :>

[AmongHeroes]

@Rockette-Your recruitment prowess is without equal.

[icmasticc]

@Rockette - I'm literally working on it lol. I said that as a buffer, but I instantly started opening tabs and gathering ideas hahaha. It just may not be all the way finished tonight, but who knows!

[AmongHeroes]

@icmasticc-Don't let her rush you. She'll grow power hungry.

[Rockette]

@AmongHeroes - Maybe. Maybe not.
_{Totally am.}

[icmasticc]

@AmongHeroes - Oh yeah, I know how it goes with that one.

[Gowi]

I'll be working on it in-between all the other stuff I need to work on. :F

[Austronaut]

Are we going for Arthur the welsh warlord or Arthur from Mallory here? Tone wise I mean

@Austronaut

We're going for Arthur, the just, righteous king and savior of the Britons. Think of the Lancelot/Grail cycle as a basis.

@AmongHeroes

I probably will have to withdraw my interest. It looks cool but I know myself, even if I try to accept the fact it's fiction I'll start nitpicking historical details and be that person and end up ruining fun times.
