[OOC] Nar Mat Kordh-Ishi - an Orcish saga

[Vanq]

Birthday stuff has kept me wrapping up my character, but I may end up tweaking my original idea after skimming through what's already here. Hmm.

[Sypherkhode822]

Been reading all the other characters, all delightful.
I've been inspired by Sparkwell to make a 'siege engineer' Orc.
Also. Seuss, how do you feel about explosives? It wouldn't be a machine-gun or anything, just rudimentary grenades, ancient Chinese flamethrowers, flares, etc.

@Sypherkhode822

Where would he learn that from?

A city of Gnomes?

[Sypherkhode822]

He would have been a whipping boy/slave assistant for a Dwarven siege mercenary company. They would have all sorts of cool exploding things, and they would have used him to put the stuff together, because if he explodes horribly, oh well, orcs are dumn. (As opposed to a dwarf killing himself through a tragic explosion, then the dwarf was a victim of fate)
He would get kicked out after a while, and then wind up with the company.

If there's no objections I'm going to add Xozu to the character tab and work out her opinions on the other characters

Character looks good, and I want to avoid a huge amount of sorcery as we start to work out how precisely to blend that in without breaking the RP's themes.

Hey Seuss

No worries on the magic. I purposefully made her so that she wouldn't have anything on hand conventional weapons couldn't do just as well. Any time I prepare something ahead of time I plan to get the okay via PM first.

@Beach Burrito

Yeah, I got the vibe that what she'd do would be ritualistic, requiring preparation and all that. I'm fine with that idea.

[Beach Burrito]

@Flagg I get the feeling Xozu would have at some point thrown a handful of powder at Half-face to see if it killed him, then muttered something about half an orc counting for more than a whole elf...

@Beach Burrito

Ha! I like it. I'm not 100% that Half-Face is any degree of elfish, just thought a mysterious parentage might make for something interesting- glad you ran with the idea!

[HeySeuss]

I'm mostly waiting for Vanq's character and then I'm inclined to get a move on here.

[Sypherkhode822]

Got my CS up.
It's an orcish munitioneer. Sort of like a less batshit Ork Mekboy
His stuff is really simplistic, no rudimentary arquebus or anything. Just grenade things that explode in a general fashion.

[Bright_Ops]

And I posted Bel-Gond. I hope he is acceptable.

[Hank]

I also posted a character. Who wants to be friends with Ungoth?

@Hank

I wouldn't mind. Anything particular in mind?

Such as how it might have formed, or the level of trust and such.

@HeySeuss

And I got up a CS. After much tweaking. Now to re-read everyone's CS.

[Peik]

I'm afraid I'll have to pull out. Good luck, guys!

[Sypherkhode822]

Heyseuss, when do you think we'll get started? Is my character approved?

[HeySeuss]

Just getting the writing done for the first post. I see no real issues with the characters as stands.

[Meth Quokka]

I'll crack out my first post and how my character views the others this arvo.

[Bright_Ops]

@HeySeuss

So my character is approved?

[helltank]

Posting here to register my interest. Can I ask how much focus is gonna be dedicated to the strategy/tactics part of the RP? As in, is it orc brawling or proper military fiction with maps and all?
