[OOC] Estermere - A Medieval Fantasy Roleplay

[IncredibleBee]

I guess either warband or raiders.

[vietmyke]

I'm a bit behind, but I think raiders or a warband would be a proper first conflict.
As far as getting the interest of the out of towners - I mean, common morals would tell us that these raiders are inherently bad, and this may be enough for the out of towners to defend the town

Or cause, pointy bits aimed towards them. And depending on size, they don't have a chance to GUN it, cause the Warband/Raiders got to surround the entire town. Also, as ya know, wanna stab 'em. Stab 'em reeeaaaaal goooood...

But really, the real question is, Why do they stay AFTER this, when they get a chance to, shove off? This place tried to kill em! Why would they be staying here after that!?

[vietmyke]

Maybe the raiders siege the village? force the outsiders to stay inside? Maybe the raiders threaten to return, and the outsiders, either through personal morals or promise of a paycheck by the mayor agree to stay and defend the village?

Some characters, like James, care about neither the town nor money. So that wouldn't really work.

[vietmyke]

Erp,maybe the raiders kidnap loved ones? Anya and Rosa are two youngish females, maybe they're kidnapped by raiders

Nah, I've decided no mass invasion of Estermere yet. That will be for 'higher' levels.

BUT!

INSANE GNOLL TIME

[Professor_Wyvern]

Well, that is what Gnolls are yes. Insane monsters.

Aaaaand besides avoiding the pointy bits an' gettin' stabbed to death, why will the Out of Towners care about uh, this place AFTER the raid, I wonder?

Also I will ineffectually flail my fists at them, unless maybe I get a pitchfork. Then I can go PEASANT MOB on 'em. Or something. Possibly. Maybe. Perhaps.

Barber-surgeon will for sure be in back, helping wounded, and trying very hard to not get punched in face.

We'll get you a pitchfork, or a long spear. If you have a bow, though, use that.

Fuck it, time to put all my medieval warfare studies to good use.

[Professor_Wyvern]

I don't own a bow.

[BingTheWing]

How about....

INSANE GNOLL AND HIS EQUALLY INSANE GIANT HYENA PET

[Professor_Wyvern]

Well, Elric is heading back to the shop, and uh, left the bar. Though townfolks screaming would get his attention.

And yeah, Typical Gnoll stuff.

Make sure to bring the bone saw.

[vietmyke]

Did you just kill off the head of the red locks? or just a lackey?

I'm the Medic, as soon as I know, uh, TOWNSFOLK ARE IN SHIT LOADS OF DANGER... I'm going to bring my medical supplies.

No one ever SAW THE FACE OF THE LEADER. Besides, it's just a myth. They are well known to be a decentralized organization hiding behind a False Leader to be really spooky...

... Or so I've heard.

[IncredibleBee]

Oh, it's just a big hyena attacking a bar?

Whatevs.
If you need me, I'll be in my crate.

[Professor_Wyvern]

And his (Grushtov the Hyena AKA Gnoll Version of a Puppy Dog) owner (Ringo? Jack Ronalds?). Ringo. It just feels... -right-, for the Gnoll to be named Ringo.

Hopefully the Red Lock the Gnoll and Hyena killed WASN'T Johnathan Abbey. He's a good man.

[Stitches]

Argh, if I knew all manner of hell was to be released then I wouldn't have started the collab. Sorry, metro and Feig! I'm going to assume that the trio dont hear the chaos from the pub since they're at home.

Bing, dearest, I would love you forever if you kept the whole 'time' progression alive. I think its late night or early morning.

It's probably like 20:00 since most people are headed to be IC. Also, time progression is kinda subjective; it should be based on what's happened. So far we've talked for what'd be about an hour or two at most IC.
