[OOC] Marches of Man: the Black Shields. [ALWAYS OPEN]

[Eschatologist]

@TJByrum

I want to post more in this RP, and have an idea that requires your participation. We're both going to get a drink, want to PM the initial meeting of Laurence and Warren?

[Renny]

Sae is about to make a commotion with his entrance. Prepare everyone lol.

[Eschatologist]

My body is ready

[Partisan]

Queue Sae walking in, proclaiming himself a nobleman and then get laughed at.

[Eschatologist]

God I want Laurence and Sae to meet. They are pretty much exact polar opposites, and I bet they'd get along well.

[Partisan]

Well, polar opposites usually get along better than the exact same types of people.

[Eschatologist]

Paula Abdul said it best man.

"I take--2 steps forward
I take--2 steps back
We come together
Cuz opposites attract
And you know--it ain't fiction
Just a natural fact
We come together
Cuz opposites attract"

[Renny]

It took a bit. But my post is up. Let me know if I measure up?

I'm a bit iffy about my skills when it comes to near-advance/advanced level rps.

[Eschatologist]

@Renny

If you want to RP with a character and not be forced to make huge paragraphs of text for each line of conversation, you and I could do Laurence and Sae's first meeting in PMs. Just a suggestion

[Partisan]

Someone enjoys collabs. :p

[Eschatologist]

Yeah mang. Gotta kill time, may as well RP.

[Partisan]

Inclined to agree, if it weren't for my exams.

[TJByrum]

Yeah, @Eschatologist, I will still pm after work if I got time, and you're up for it. We can all just get drunk at the tent!

Collaborating is my favorite part about rping. I love seeing characters interact like that.

[AtomicNut]

still haven't settled on the intro. Brain keeps being grinded into mush-

Gah, do you guys mind if go back to the character drawing table and see if I can figure something with someone different?

[OneEyedChurro]

My post will be up tonight. Got an idea for a second character, too.

@Partisan Since you mentioned the courts specifically in the OP, I'm assuming you'd be cool with a more political character? Would there be positions in the Black Shields / elsewhere that would make that concept work?

[Partisan]

I suppose ''commanders'' that don't actually fight, but that'd be kind of annoying to work with as I'd need you to do battle stuff, which is always a hassle.

[OneEyedChurro]

Hmm, yeah, that'd be a hassle. Well the idea was that he was a translator for a very old (and very traditionalist, hence the language barrier) tribe in the North, and since he had to be present for most meetings between leaders or what have you, he sort of picked up skills in diplomacy from that.

[Partisan]

Why would he be in the Black Shields though?

[OneEyedChurro]

Thinking the tribe was rather peaceful and was on the eve of being assimilated by a bigger neighbor who the character didn't particularly like. Moved into Broacien and joined up with the Black Shields more as an 'out of desperation' thing, maybe thinking they'd one day clash with the tribe if it got big and confident enough. Or try and convince them to.

[Partisan]

''I know you don't particularily care for the tribes but please go kill this one tribe'' haha. :p
