[OOC] The Kingdom of Belvoir - Hunter's Guild (Taking Applications)

[Lucius Cypher]

@ScorpionFlower Cool. But it looks like we have a hunt now. How about Donnel stumbles into her and offers her a job to tag along with him? Pay ya some money to just carry his things and maybe flirt.

[Nymeria]

@Lucius Cypher That would be a good idea to get her to come along with the action. Otherwise you're going to have a while with none of the main hunters in the city.

Although I left it open for anyone to stay behind if they want.

[ScorpionFlower]

Well, turn out I just posted. I also took for granted that she was near when you left town, with whoever decided to accompany you.
If you want to interact, it's indeed a good time. ;)

It has been years since I did a group RP, so excuse me if I am rusty and maybe a bit clumsy with my posts and all. I normally try to stay vague and open, but if I make too much assumptions or take too much liberty (not with others characters, but events, environments and the such) and it doesn't add up, just tell me and I'll edit.

[Nymeria]

It's all good :)

I'm fine if you want to post as characters before they left the city so that Juniper can tag along with everyone.

[Lucius Cypher]

Cool. I’ll work on a post ASAP.

[LordLinguinie]

@SirSqueakalot91 @Zelosse @Ryonara Thing's have slwoed, but we're moving things along now. Just wanted to make sure you guys are all still with us on this next hunt, or just let us know if you want to be autopiloted. If you feel kind of lost, we are more than happy to work with you to fix any issue you may have!

[Ryonara]

I can try to work on my own post right now.

Edit: Or at least I would if my internet wasn’t a bastard and lost all the work I just did. ToT

This might take a little while longer.

[Stitches]

I'm just trying to figure out how to jump in this RP again, since I got stuck when Anastasia left. I might toss a PM to GM.

[Lucius Cypher]

@Stitches maybe at some point in Donnel’s Drunken escapades he had also encountered you and made vague promises of bringing you into glory? Alternatively, she just receives a message from the guards of another hunt and, being the eager rapscalion you are, come tag along?

[ScorpionFlower]

Quick question: Do you guys... have horses?
It's not written everywhere, but I kind of imagined they'd leave on horseback. Maybe not, though. I need to know before I can post. x)

[Lucius Cypher]

@ScorpionFlower I would presume not. At least Donnel doesn’t have a horse, and we’re going through a forest where the hide out is a cave. Horses might be detrimental to our stealth even if speed is needed.

I can say with upmost certainly that Donnel does not have a horse at least.

[ScorpionFlower]

Haha. Alright, thank you.

Since I can do nothing in a fight, let me stand by and do just that: nothing. ^_^

[Lucius Cypher]

It’s a good post! I almost feel a little guilty making Donnel shanghai her into helping. But it also makes me want to be cruel and force her into a nasty situation where she’ll need Donnel’s help of at least can’t willingly leave his service. I can’t say I do y want to be mean, but as with everything, I ask for your consent: do you mind if I make some trouble for you @ScorpionFlower?

[ScorpionFlower]

No. I don't.

But get her angry enough and you might eventually have a massive angry Ball of fur problem yourself.

Jokes aside, she'll want to repay you, but if Donnel is a complete ass in general and to her, she won't be a slave for fun or take abuse. she'll disappear back into the streets.

She can be manipulated though. Just find a good reason she won't just run away from a band of obvious bloodthirsty monsters killers. :)

[Lucius Cypher]

@ScorpionFlower

Well, as I am a man of honesty and truth, I shan’t keep a secret from you, my would be victim. But basically in my next post or so I’m going to have a vampire attack Juniper. And while Donnel is a remorseless killer, he also as a soft spot for women he’s taken a fancy to, and would go out of his way to save her. And while he does deal with the vampire easily enough, his one moment of concern for Juniper leaves him defenseless long enough for him to take a heavy wound. He will survive if course, but with the implications that he would’ve been better had he not been distracted.

Of course it’s not as if Juniper is at fault or that Donny is without guilt. Just as I imagine some feel about Anastasia and her small army of disposable hunters, the thought that Donnel should have not brought a noncombatant is also valid. True, Juniper as written really shouldnt be involved in stuff like this. Speaking frankly Donnel just wants to use Juniper for sex (at least until I reread her CS and realized she’s 14 while Donnel is 22. While it may have been fair for its time I should let you know now that even with consent I will find some reason for Donnel to not engage in sexual activities with Juniper), and of course OoC while it’s fine that I found a way to bring you into this hunt, I should try not to use meta knowledge to shape my IC actions. But I digress. Point is this is my plan and I hope you’re willing to humor me.

And of course if anyone else wants to jump in into this sweet character development feel free to do so. I certainly won’t deny you the chance. I merely ask that you consort with us first before you intrude, to better entertain everyone involved as oppose to just the one.

[Zelosse]

@Lucius Cypher Take a massive wound despite Davos a couple feet away keeping his employee safe? Not happenin' on his watch. Unless he's.. occupied.

[Lucius Cypher]

@Zelosse

Eh, it’s flexible. Maybe Big and brawny that Libe is fighting chucks an axe in Donnel’s direction. Being a man who thinks with his head and not his crotch, Dravos is on point and reminds the Marauder of his mission and not his vices as he saves both Donnel and Juniper from what would’ve been a dramatic tradgey.

[Zelosse]

Eh lets see how it all goes down

[Lucius Cypher]

Fo sho. I’ll post something tomorrow once we done more activity.

[ScorpionFlower]

@Lucius Cypher

My thoughts exactly since about the very first interaction. I Lol'ed. Good of you to notice. :D
If he was indeed wounded because of her - or that shr thought it was because of her - it would work wonders. That's plenty a reason for her, personality wise, to bear the company of hunters for a while longer.

@Zelosse

Please do save the big man. Juniper certainly won't, and it won't be because she refuses to. She just can't. I was not there in the previous IC posts, so I do not know their relations exactly. Although while I'm sure Donnel can save himself, I bet it's funny to watch him owe one to anyone else.
