And so it begins! Alright @Fetzen, here it is. It may say I'm the GM but it lies xD

So how much control do you want? I'm used to doing RPs where I am strictly the player so I attempt to do something and the DM says if it works or not. Ex) I swing my sword at his ankles, trying to knock him to the ground. DM: You hit his leg with the flat of your blade and he stumbles but doesn't fall

Or do you want me to have a little freedom. Ex) I swing my sword at his ankles and knock him to the ground. DM: He does a quick roll and is on his feet again in the blink of an eye, knife in hand.

Personally I am totally ok with either. I'm not the kind of person to go God-Mode in any sense of the word. I find failure to be a challenge that gets to work through. Although if you have a plan for the story, something I may try to do could be against what your plans are and that's totally fine as well. Or we could do a mixture. Ex) I swing my sword at his ankles and knock him to the ground. (You can either let this go and roll with it or continue:) DM: Your sword strikes home but when you expect him to fall, he just lunges at you, his blade slashing through your upper arm.

And also we should agree on which POV and which tense to use. Third person tends to be the easiest and I have a terrible habit of wanting to stay in present tense. I can do past tense but expect some slip ups from doing present tense RP for so long haha.

I'll let you get it all started. You know a bit about my character and I'll post more about her in the character chat so you can start at whatever point you want and have us be however you want us and we will go from there. Very excited!

Also, feel free to change the name :-)

Good idea with the colors! Let me know if that blue is hard to read. Also, I was talking to my friend about this format of RP and she said that for post length, she always tells people to do what feels natural. I thought that was a great idea.

Don't push yourself to keep writing just because you think the post should be longer. If you just have a paragraph or so and feel like that you want to wait to see what my character does then that is completely fine. Quality over quantity for sure. It's been great so far but just wanted ya to know for the future :-) and also because mine is kind of short haha. I tend to like to be a bit more reactionary is all.

I really like how this is going so far though! :-D

@Fetzen Also, feel free to use her mild divination powers however you want. I totally don't mind if you give her a vision and I respond to it. Could be interesting in certain situations :-D

~Stale bread and a small hunk of hard cheese
~Empty flask
~A nice dress
~Black lace veil

(There are probably some other things I can't think of right now so if there is something specific that you think she would have that I haven't written down, just let me know)
