[OOC] Gods, Wizards, & Kings

Well that was the intend point in the manner. The two would barely acknowledge your existence so that we could get on with things because group of adventures stands about on a dock and exchanges pleasantries out of common courtesy does not sound like the most riveting of tales. XD

Though I do have a question for you guys as well as everyone else. We have two options the first is that once on the boat we can talk a little bit among one another you know character interaction and all that or we could skip the boat ride entirely and get our first real hint of the greater overall arching plot at the group's arrival at Kailee's End. For if you have not guessed things are not always so simple as gather lost immeasurably powerful artifact. Which would you prefer?

[Lotta Pumpkins]

I'm impartial. Erik and Lazuli can be explained away as keeping to themselves, or they can be social. Doesn't matter to me at all.

[Roleplayer001]

My dwarf would probably try to meet everyone while on trip. Perhaps we should just get everyone's intros in, and have next post be our character's first impressions of each other after the trip.

EDIT

Don't think it would be a terrible idea though for us to quickly settle the intro conversation we've already started in PM and just post it in IC as a group to avoid flooding it with one paragraph posts. Hex, would you mind giving your two main characters a color?

@Hexaflexagon
What is the leadership of Highwater? Is it like a city-state where they elect a lord from the upper echelons of society or is there a hereditary dynasty in place here?

[Hexaflexagon]

@Liar
In Highwinter? Well there isn't really a leader at all. Rather at any given time there are five Luminary's that run the city. While most know the Luminarys few actually stop and think of about there importance as the de facto leaders of Highwinter. The identity of each Luminary is a well protected secrete that is never known even among themselves as at all meetings they wear magical masks that cover the full face and alter the voice with magic. How they are elected is also a complete mystery though must just assume that other Luminary's vote upon it once another dies. Because Shadowy Councils are oh so much fun! lol

Though outwardly there is a Lord of Highwinter who namely serves as a figurehead, and as political face and representation of the Luminary's opinions to be voiced to the public. The current holder of this title is a human by the name of Ulalis Elaled who inherited the title for his father so odd thirty years ago making him about in his early fifties. In the event that the Lord produces no heir the aristocratic have a series of heated debates until a new dynasty is determined through an election by the aristocracy. While this may seem silly debating over a position with no inheritat value becoming Lord or part of the Lord's family automatically boosts your status through the roof in a city where Status can get you a grand many a things, that and you get to live in the Sprawling Lord's Keep a large sprawling castle that towers over even the Estate District. That and it gives the rich a sense of power while keeping them complacent which the Luminary's enjoy.

@RabidAnubis
Calwen can be Violet and Lady Vekk can be Cyan.

And while that is a good idea ultimately I feel it is unnecessary and a bit of a hassle really. Don't fret though I already have a plan to make sure all the conversations are worked in together and everything flows nicely in the next post. Without the need of course for a collab post such as that or us all going back and forth in little posts.

@Hexaflexagon
Would it be too much to have my character's uncle be a Luminary?

[Hexaflexagon]

@Liar
Eh not really I suppose it is not like one Luminary can really do anything much by himself anyway, so it wouldn't be OP or anything like that. And something you all will learn about my RP style is that if it makes a better story I'm basically game for most things. So sure!

@Hexaflexagon
I just wanted a more expanded background on why Aehren is interested in politics and governing. A Luminary uncle would help that.

@Hexaflexagon

So, should we be waiting for everybody else to post or interacting with each other right now? (and in the future in this sort of situation)

[Roleplayer001]

Yeah. The other's haven't posted in 4 days...

[Lotta Pumpkins]

@Torack@Enzayne@Liar

waiting on your posts, friends.

[Liar]

Writing it up as we speak, but I'm not so sure about the other two.

[Liar]

Keep the OOC alive at least, fellas. It makes things seem like we actually have activity.

[Roleplayer001]

Yeah. OP, do the steryotypical all reply / first impressions and get this show on the road!

[Hexaflexagon]

@Liar

Face activity is the best activity!

Yeah. OP, do the steryotypical all reply / first impressions and get this show on the road!

@RabidAnubis

I'm working on that! Should be done soonish maybe later this night or scratch of dawn tomorrow morning before I go to work. Hold your figurative horses! XD I've been waiting it off, but it seems we will have to hope our friends who did not post come back and they can catch up.

[Liar]

Aehren is somewhat confused why he was picked to go on this mission.

[Hexaflexagon]

Aehren is somewhat confused why he was picked to go on this mission.

@Liar

Because they needed to fill their quota of Human white haired pretty boys? Obviously. lol

[RyanTadashi]

The others could be on a mission right now, and if they come back, their characters could meet us at Kailee's End

[Hexaflexagon]

@RyanTadashi
I didn't think about that! Great idea that could work very nicely! Here have a cookie!

@Hexaflexagon

Fair enough. Someone has to be the token pretty boy after all. What kind of quest would it be without one?
