[OOC] Broken Skies: War in the Eversky

[Bazmund]

@vietmyke O crap, yeah please do. I forgot you'd nae posted.

[vietmyke]

Oh, @Bazmund, Idunno if you caught it, but several pages back I made some talk about airships:

I thought this looked like a good representation of the Iron Dominion Navy (and is what I had in mind while I was writing Sam)

Hider

On the otherhand, for our little crew's skiff, I was thinking something a bit fancier, but smaller.

Hider

Unless you already had a ship in mind for us- a dirty looking dingy would be fun too.

[Bazmund]

@vietmyke Yes, that's the Iron Dominion perfectly - particularly their Floatstone enabled fleets - and that's a good portrayal of the ship we'll be using too, if a bit fancier than what I had in mind. Strip away from of the ornate decoration and you've got it, boyo. There might be some more extending sails on the sides, though, for use in the Upper Luft.

[vietmyke]

@everyone, here is a visual representation of what we'll be flying on

nautilus freighters

[CollectorOfMyst]

Wait, who's Volkov? The bartender?

[vietmyke]

@CollectorOfMyst Volkov is @13org's character.

[CollectorOfMyst]

@vietmyke Oh, right. Sorry, I'm low on caffeine right now. It's just most often we all refer to 13org's character as Kat. And that the post talks about the drink so my thoughts went to the man who made it, and I forgot that astir means awaken.

[13org]

@CollectorOfMyst

Ekaterine Volkov.

Ariah calls her "Kat"

PS: will have my post done tomorrow :-)

[Deadnaut]

Working on writing my post right now, really enjoying trying to get into Aura's character here, so I hope everyone else is having as much fun with gettin into their characters!

[vietmyke]

Writing that post, I just saw Garrus saying "I'm in the middle of some calibrations."

[Deadnaut]

@vietmyke

Calibrations

[Bazmund]

Attention all: Make any posts you want to make before we embark on the journey asap. When I get home and don't have to use mobile any more, I'll be typing up the next story post.

[CollectorOfMyst]

Hmm... I can think of something Cole would be doing right now, but it might take a little bit. I'll have to type fast.

[Deadnaut]

@Bazmund

Aye, aye boss! I'll look forward to it!

[CollectorOfMyst]

I've made another post! What I'd like to do is use Cole's journal as a sort of 'codex' for everyone, players and characters both, if @Bazmund does not object. I'd post it either in the character's section at the very end, or add it just under the 'Journal' part in his Equipment list, and it could contain info on places we've been, notable characters - basically just take the active npcs and put them in - but also a short summary of what our characters know about each other. Maybe even the occasional 'Entry' by Cole summing up recent happenings. Of course given that it's Cole's journal, he'd only be able to record what he knows about, be he could have noticed things.

[Deadnaut]

@CollectorOfMyst

Ooh, looks nice. I can't speak for Baz, but I think that is a lovely idea. Some IC perspective on things is always nice

[Bazmund]

@CollectorOfMyst@Deadnaut That is a superb idea. Go for it, amigo. Feel free to create a post at the end of the characters tab for us to refer to.

I might let the next story post wait until the morning, though. It's about midnight here, and I'm shattered. Goodnight all.

[CollectorOfMyst]

@Bazmund I've been dying to hear/see those words... I'll get to work.

(Given that I'm a Brit, too, it is also past midnight for me, but sleep? Never heard of the thing.)

[Bazmund]

By the way, folks, this is a universe that is primarily lighthearted, and there's a lot of beauty in the Eversky - but go ahead and be as terrible to your characters as you like. Hit us with the feels. Always makes for great writing, y'know?

[Deadnaut]

@Bazmund
Aye bossman. (Also, fml, its back to work after school and it's back to waking up at 6 AM every weekday)
