[OOC] Ragnarok ( Modern Myth )

[Mischief]

Wow you guys are active in the mornings. D: (Says the girl who slept until 2 pm). I finally fell asleep just before you all started doing things lol. I'm about to head over to the IC to catch up.

[Elendra]

What's this, "sleep", thing? It sounds familiar and yet so strange.

By which I mean that I kinda forgot to do it last night. Recently got around to playing ACIV aaaaaand pulled an all-nighter last night.

This game would've been better as a straight up pirate game.

Pirate demigods with nordic influences? I don't see them being able to stop Ragnarok so much, limited mobility and all that.

Wat?

I meant ACIV would've been better as just pirates! Not Ragnarok :p

Limited? I'm pretty sure someone could get it to fly if they want,

[The Imagination]

Hahahahahah i'm running off 4 hours of sleep i'm taking everything too literally .-.

I agree though, I played a lot of Sid Meier's Pirates and I think it would've been cool to have to worry about things like food and morale, have a few more goods to trade and perhaps even capturing different ship types to pilot. I really liked the mission where you took the wheel on Blackbeard's ship, it was too short :p

[Mischief]

Lol I'm supposed to be regulating my sleep schedule says my doctor but it's haaaaard.

I haven't actually paid any attention to Assassin's Creed since the third one came out. If you don't know, I based Soraya on myself and my nationality (yep, I'm actually Cree. And Ojibwe and French) and I liked that a video game used a Native American as the main character. It was slightly cheesy with all the tree-jumping and whatnot, but I had tons of fun with it lol.

EDIT: Arts and research are Soraya's top trainings. Does this mean she can improvise some fairly cool weapons? Also I thought that having Charisma as a Priority 2 Attribute meant she was still fairly good at speaking? :P

[Jorick]

Elendra, ugh, why did you have to get active people for this? Now to join like I said I would I'll have to read a bunch of things before I can post. Damn it.

Your stats aren't just static values for comparison. There is also a bit of rolling going on, and sometimes the dice aren't in your favour.So far no one has had a bad roll, per se, but give it time.

3 was the last you did? I didn't do 3. I hear there was a boat in it and that it was awesome. 4 has a lot more boat. The boating is awesome. The rest of the game? Not so much. Glitchy and buggy and I accidentally broke it a few times. Not bad, just okay while not on a boat. :D

Craftings bows would be interesting. I don't know any other characters with the military skill, but we could devise something tactical. I'm also surprised no one exchanged numbers. My character wouldn't have a cell phone due to him spending most his money on drugs or alcohol. Maybe Jagred would have one? We could devise a rudimentary plan on the way there via our cell phones, and revise and reform it once we get there and have a lay of the land.

I'm thinking something with freeing a few dwarves, and using them to distract the giants while we free the rest of the dwarves. We could have Soraya see to crafting a few bows, although that would take a while, and they'd only possibly serve to distract the giants but I don't think we should just wait forever while Soraya crafts a hundred bows for the dwarves to use if we manage to free them. So maybe she could craft two or three bows for her, Dann and anyone else to use to distract the giants while the dwarves would be left to pickaxes and throwing stones to do their part. Gavriil's rifle will be a big help. Honestly, i'm not sure if we have to kill these giants. We just need the artifact right? Sorry to say, but we might have to sacrifice the dwarves to the giants so we can slip in, steal the artifact and slip out.

Edit; Fuck, it looks like we might actually have to wipe out the frost giants there, that or capture/kill and drive off the rest. Like I said, Gavriil's rifle will be a big help, and my dwarven made sword might help inspire the dwarves (along with some charismatic words). I don't know, to form a real solid plan we'll have to wait till we get there lolol.

Character Sheet

Biographical Section

Name: Angus Hartmann
Age: 24
Race: Caucasian of mixed European heritage
Sex: Male
Appearance: Light brown hair, blue eyes, lower half of face hidden by a thick beard. Tall, broad shoulders, rather muscular. Dude looks like he'd make a great lumberjack, basically.
Homeland: Germany

History: Angus grew up in a German foster home after his parents died; shoddy recordkeeping meant that nobody was sure who his parents were or how they died, with the only clue to their identity being the boy's surname, but he never bothered to try to seek out the truth. He was adequate at schoolwork but excelled at sports and other physical activities. Angus was offered various full ride scholarships for sports, but he didn't care for the idea of spending more time doing school things so he instead got a job and started pursuing another interest: MMA fighting.

He'd never done any real fighting in his life, just some schoolyard tussles with kids who didn't realize they shouldn't screw with someone much bigger than them, but after seeing a couple MMA fighting events Angus felt like he'd found his calling. He found a training facility geared specifically toward training people to fight in such events and signed up immediately. It took a couple years of training for the utterly unskilled Angus to become a real fighter, but all the effort paid off as he handily beat the first half dozen opponents he went up against. People in the business were starting to pay attention to him and suggest that he might be good enough to go pro within a year when Angus found a strange note that put a halt to those plans.

After his chat with the ravens, Angus informed verious people that he would be gone for an indefinite length of time and made his way to America in pursuit of his new calling.

Parent Gender: No preference.

Personal Section

Romance: Fine by me, as long as it actually makes sense for the characters to be into one another or there are power shenanigans going on that make it happen.

Play style: Action-oriented missions preferred for this character, choices and complexity are nice.

Signature: I, Jorick, do agree that death may come for my character at the discretion of the GM.

[RedDusk]

Alright, Jagred would definitely have a phone...I'm writing up a post right at this moment..
Though when you say we should use the dwarves to distract the giants, I immediately thought of throwing them at the Frost Giants and running like hell >> Huh...Not sure if too much sleep had broken my brain.

[The Imagination]

Surely they'll have rudimentary mining tools to aid them. Nonetheless, if killing or capturing a giant proves too difficult than we could free and rescue a few dwarves during some night raid and question them as to the artifact's status. Than, depending on the information, we could try and raid the camp again or devise another plan, or deliver the bad news that giants already took it off somewhere to Baldur. Additionally, rescuing a dwarf and questioning it could gain us insight on the strengths and weaknesses of what the inside of their camp looks like.

[RedDusk]

Well, yeah, rescuing a dwarf or two first then get some info about the camp first sounded like a good idea. I'm not exactly confident about raiding a giant camp with just ice picks and molotov cocktails.

[Elendra]

Alright, as soon as you lot have an idea for your plan on what you're going to be doing between now in IC, and you arriving at Bodie (what do you go shopping for, or try to build, and other things), I can get that post put together, and have Jorick's character meet you guys there or something I'll figure that bit out later.
