@Crimson RavenIf you still wish to be apart of the RP, I'll give you another 3 days to post my friend, extending your time left by 2 days since you're new.

@POOHEAD189

Oh crap.

I had completely forgotten about this.

Err...

It sucks, but I have to withdraw. I have midterms coming up next week, and several, more personal, issues that I'm dealing with. I won't have time to continue with this RP. I'm really sorry, at the time I believed I could, but no accounting for life.

It's Hobnob, not Hobbnob.

[POOHEAD189]

@rush99999Dunno why I kept typing it that way. I'll edit.

[POOHEAD189]

@Crimson RavenIt's cool^^. Good luck on exams!

Whoops! thought I posted a reply to Kayden! Sorry about that, I'll try to post real quick in the morning, i have to sleep off work at the moment

[POOHEAD189]

Pardon me, seems I was busier than I thought. One more day!

@BCTheEntity@rush99999@Jollan
Seems our merry band has dwindled the past few weeks, but we're about to receive another person or two, so stay tuned! You don't need to reply right away since I don't want to get into any action until we got the new character sheets, but this next mission, as you've read, is being set up now!

ANNOUNCEMENTS

First off, let's welcome the lovely and sassy @MiddleEarthRoze to our ranks.


NOW! We are going to embark on a smaller mission with all four of you. I'll do a time skip after Roze posts and introduces herself. I'll explain the mission in full. However, pertaining to after that mission is my next announcement.

I am going to be doing one of two things.

---

1) I am going to turn this RP into a Dungeon Diving RP where a group of Mercenaries/Soldier's of fortune delve into a Mountain to find a fabled Dragon's horde. The Dragon has long since fled, but many monsters have taken residence where the great Wyrm once resided.
or
2) I am going to revamp this Campaign into a Pirate RP, sailing the open seas and plundering merchant vessels and exploring dense jungles, and raiding settlements if we're wicked enough.

I am allowing you to switch your characters from this RP over, no questions asked. If you are against this idea, or you have a preference for one of the two above, let me know.
@BCTheEntity@rush99999@Jollan

Also BC, how would you like to handle Secret's convo with you on this timeskip? Shall we PM it, or would you like me to decide? Or I can make another post, and you can reply, and then my next post will be our timeskip and we go from there?

Roze, here is a summary of what has transpired.

Summary

Kayden, the Merc Captain and Morek the Dwarf, freed Jex the Drabarian bounty hunter from slavery. In turn, he gave them information of a Hidden fortress in the mountains, where his previous employers resided (they betrayed him and sold him into slavery themselves). A fortress of 50 outlaws. With the help of a sly Elven Rogue named 'Secret' who fed Kayden information, they invited a ragtag group of sellswords and mercs to meet Kayden and Morek at an old ruined guard tower at the outskirts of the wilderness. There, Kayden invited them to join his Mercenary company, for there was a Mercenary competition and whatever group brought back the biggest haul into the city of Starkvale would not only be allowed into the crowded city, but given a Guildhall and become a legitimate organization of soldiers for hire. Once they promised to join, Kayden told them of what he found out via Secret that the next day, the Bandits in the Fortress would attack a caravan of a traveling Noble, splitting their forces. Kayden led a strike team into the Fortress, and the other Mercenaries attacked the bandits who were raiding the Noble caravan. In one fell swoop, the Mercs destroyed the bandits and took over the fortress, though not without their losses, and not without fighting a Dark mage and a Death Knight at the climax (as well as an Ogre and a few Gnolls along the way). Now, a week later they are within the city limits with their own Guild. Some of the Mercs are resting at the taken Bandit Fortress 'Hillcrest' while Kayden and a few are in the Guild hall accepting new members to their growing group of Mercs.

@POOHEAD189 I was just wondering how that would be handled, actually. I might make a post just to keep up with the nominal time limit, if I'm required to do that in this instance (?), but otherwise I figure we can have the conversation in PMs and then post it to the thread later on. It's not like there's any meta-knowledge about Nuva Doer that isn't known by anybody yet, after all.

[POOHEAD189]

Let's have a PM convo. Also, I'll probably do what I want to do regardless, but if you'd lean toward pirate or mountain riches, let me know. We might even just make it a sequel to this if you wanted to make the same character (though like I said, we're going to do a Starkvale mission now). @BCTheEntity

[MiddleEarthRoze]

First post done, and happy to be here! Hope everyone enjoys my smol angry woman.

@POOHEAD189
_{pst. dragon treasure horde ftw. can we call it Smaug? XD}

[Jollan]

Knowing my character I'd have to say maybe the mountain one, however, if we do decide to change to pirates, I could actually switch characters and send Allard to the adventurers rp you have, because he would probably fit better there, and take the one I was making for it and put him in this one. though it would take rewriting Allard which would be a little bummer but.... meh.

[POOHEAD189]

@JollanIt'll probably be Mountain by what I am thinking/seeing.

@BCTheEntityI shall reply to your PM (thanks for jumping on that) after I sleep.

Also, I'll be replying and time skipping for everyone in a day or two. @rush99999 Would my fav Gnome want to join our Sequel RP?

@POOHEAD189

While Hobnob and his crew wouldn't mind tagging along, they're gonna have to be absent for the 1st act.

@rush99999The 1st act?
