[OOC] The Silver Dagger

[Mysaren]

Posted in the IC. Tell me if I need to change anything, the program I was using to write makes it a bit difficult to switch back and forth between their posts and what I'm writing.

[Jester]

Hey, just as a clarification, I think y'all might be overestimating the instances of monster attacks. The shit is more common than other places will typically encounter, but some of those places don't deal with it at all. People aren't quite disappearing from werewolves every night.

No need to really change anything so far, but I just wanted you to be aware.

Just because there are thousands of sharks just off the coast of the Florida panhandle doesn't mean someone gets bit everyday. Good stuff overall though.

[Inlaa]

I'll keep that in mind. I definitely had a slightly different idea of what was going down in mind, but it shouldn't be hard for me to adapt.

[Jester]

@potatochipgolemGo ahead and Edit your post. Mysaren's character was there as well.

[potatochipgolem]

WooT.

I pressumed they were expecting visitors so they would not lock the door, that's my pressumption so let me know If that stands untrue, also, Ro'en has less qualms about intruding private property than alex.

I edited the post when I noticed 3 posts happened when I was typing, which meant I had to change the contents to fit the things that happened in front of the door - so it might be a tad awkward at the last paragraph.

[Jester]

Hey, the guy can do what he wants. He might just get a good cussing for it though, lol.

I wrestled for like 5 minutes trying to work in the gordian knot without it being out of universe, because that is the feeling I got from the post. I was a hairs breadth away from creating a fictitious conqueror to cut a fictitious knot in a fictitious city, but then decided against it.

[potatochipgolem]

Lol. Probably! But in every group of friends there will always be that one dude who walks in on you when you're changing or catch you fangirling about some romance novel when no one is looking. @Jester

[Jester]

Alright, I went ahead and posted. I figure this next series of posts will be a bit shorter as they'll be mostly conversational, but once I get y'all settled, it won't be long before things get going.

[Mysaren]

Whoops, didn't see your post, Jester. Let me edit that real fast.

[Eschatologist]

Whoops, missed Chip's post, let me edit before folks respond, pls.

EDIT: Got it done

[Jester]

Alright, so that should give y'all a bit more time to interact amongst yourselves (in potatochipgolem's case, it depends how long it takes for his errand to get done), and gives Riknas time to catch up so we can discuss things.

[Jester]

Ro'en takes himself too seriously.

[Inlaa]

I'm honestly surprised that of all the characters to first get into an argument with an NPC - I mean, there's a veteran mercenary, a warrior that's murdered innocents in war, and a scholar being whispered dark thoughts - that it's the well-dressed, intelligent-by-occupation alchemist that throws down a gauntlet first.

Ayla's going to snark at Ro'en a bit more than necessary now. First impressions and all that.

[potatochipgolem]

God damnit, I'm a stickler of keeping my character's demeanours genuine. Guess I've have to leave a roleplay because there is no realistic way my character, based on his personality, would do something like that IC even though I personally don't want to OOCILY.

Oh well, I'll maybe see If I can think up another character. Ro'en's probably going to go back to his abode or pack up and leave the town altogether (since his shop pretty much runs itself with his asistant now).

@Jester He takes EVERYTHING too seriously. :P. Probably why he's a good alchemist but not so much a people person.

[Mysaren]

I'm going to apologize in advance to any characters, male or female, that Mysaren flirts with.

[Jester]

I mean, Thaler will treat you like an equal in time, but to him y'all are just recruits. That, and he's not really a people person.

I mean, my potential employers don't typically curse me out, but if they did, I'd probably keep my mouth shut if I wanted the job. I like it though, it shows some early personality traits.

@potatochipgolem Hmmm...well, that's reasonable I suppose. Damn, really thought an alchemist rounded it y'all out nicely.

[Inlaa]

Since he's ICly planning on looking into the evil himself, perhaps Ro'en might end up snooping out the same thing the group goes after as a whole? Keeps him in the roleplay and lets him see what they can do.

But he should still expect snark attacks.

[potatochipgolem]

@Jester Me too. But well, sometimes things in IC just don't go the way you want. That's what is fun about roleplaying.

@Inlaa Maybe. That's an idea. The entire cast is probably an ocean of hungry snarks waiting to happen lol.

[Jester]

I know Jaws is being re-released, but let's keep the shark-based analogies to a minimum people.
