Ah, crap.
I was going to delve into the necromancer path. Ish.
More specifically a magic researcher who had turned her focus on necromancy.
So she knows necromancy somewhat, a bit of a different but similar magic.
But zero combat experience(researcher, not a full Mage. She learns magic to experience it and assist in her experiments), and zero physical combat skills.

Her probably other skill might be seduction :3
What? We probably need a character to knock out a guard without killing him (^.~)


There's a lot of other paths that would fill that roll really well to be fair. If anything, a magical researcher seems a little less suitable than many other types of character for the mission at hand (breaking into a city and stealing someone.)

Rilla likes characters who had more normal jobs before joining the mission, so a courtesan or a high class escort would fill a similar roll really well.

Or if you'd prefer a slightly less sleazy profession, a con woman, an ambassador or a spy would also fill the same roll really well.

I question how useful necromancy will be considering how far we are from the Undead City.

Still, I'm sure you'll come up with something, and it looks like you have a good idea for team play, a good talker will be useful to our current anti-social party.

Crap, this is what happens when you just wake up, and the first thing you do is check RPG.
You mix up backstory/plot/overview of different RPs.

Give me a bit to wake up fully >.>

Although I still like the idea of a researcher, never played that style of character before~

As long as you keep in mind the mission we're being sent on I'm sure you can think of some form of research that would make you worth sending. That's the only caveat for this RP, you can't have a skillset completely useless for the mission, unless you've lied about your credentials.

Which would also make an interesting character, though you'd need a good reason for why you lied about your skills.

That part is easy. Lies about being a combat Mage. Since, from the OP, the group is going to Apotheoses to free a war hero. Somewhere else in the not-so-Op, the Messenger Magic users are rare, mostly only found at Apotheoses, and all else killed or probably hiding.

What researcher wouldn't try to join this expedition for a second hand experience and first hand look at these Messenger Magic users?
That, and they have a tower that can intercept these messages right? That also should be worth researching~

Actual use would probably be non-specialization of magic?
Granted, a soul is more tuned for one element, but one can try to force themselves right? So only good at one magic, but dabbled into others?

Those chaps actually look quite capable. :K

Actually it would be more useful cause we're not fighting undead.... since necromancy is only most effective against the living anyway.

I preferred the original banner, but I think it gets the point across nicely.

Also, it might be wholly useless in Valgar, as they'd likely fuck your world up before it would affect them, what with the necromancy already in play there.

Actually, that could be a future idea for Allaria. The ever expanding city.

We finally deal with the Apotheoses and realise an undead invasion is coming... sounds like GOT.

Less purposeful invasion and more unforeseen consequence of the Valgarian Blessing.

Maybe one day I'll do a catalogue for Allarian Events... and stuff.

Fun fact: Never watched most of GOT.

I've never watched an episode, read the books a while back, basically a medieval soap opera, I'm a history student from England so it's pretty much just a re-hash of what actually happened in England with some white walkers thrown in for the fantasy element. Underwhelming, but good enough.

I think I'd probably read the books rather than watch the show, mainly because I prefer to read.

Also, I want to re-read the Malazan Series, which, fun fact, was going to have some elements of it included here.
