[OOC] 🦄 Duplicity - D&D Style Fantasy Rp Adventure (Completed)

[Lucius Cypher]

Just so ya know, I'm kinda unused to controlling my own enemies in quick rotations like this. Typically it goes something along the lines of Allies > Me > Enemies > Allies > Enemies > Etc, so I don't mind if you decide how the orcs actually react to my actions, @Lady Amalthea.

[Lady Absinthia]

@Lucius Cypher That's fine and that's how we will proceed in the future, this is just a test fight so I can gauge people.

[Lucius Cypher]

Excellent.

[rivaan]

Alright then, I call a turn after Sigil, going to go after the alchemist... probably. Here me hoping Satilla can hit the potion out of his hand before he throws it with her staff.

[Sigil]

@rivaan

Hey, umm.. post on the previous page has Lady A getting onto us for calling which of the bad guys we were going after until we're given the go ahead to post. It looks too much like we're organizing the fight while it's going on, hence metagaming. Pick an opponent available when your character's turn comes around.

(psst, she's doing it this way as a test, to see how we follow instructions and rp fights)

[Salrynn]

Done my post, I think it's shit. but I hope you guys like it.

[Lady Absinthia]

@Sigil You're up.

[Sigil]

@rivaan

Hey. You're up. Best of luck to ya.

[Lady Absinthia]

Alright, now that all actives have gone I will post for Kyra and an update within the next 24 hours, then we will proceed again in a new rotation. (After my update post goes up, then you will reclaim spot in rotation for new initiative)

History

Parents: Unknown
Siblings: Adoptive brother Talem
Childhood:

• Born in an unknown location, Calanon was found outside the palisade walls of the forest village of Pera, a small town filled with Half Elves, renegade Elves, and a stark few human hunters.
• Raised by Talem's family, apart of a wood Elf village not far. Grew up within both settlements. He would sometimes sneak into the city of Fairgarden.
• Fell into the Fairgarden castle walls when very young, and met the young Safira Honeystone by happenstance. They became taken with one another and grew to be friends, visiting every so often for years.
• Joined the WayWatchers at age 20 as his brother joined the Wood Elf corps. Fought Orcs and Gnolls with distinction. Became assigned to protect the forest near the town of Ashi, a small village of shamanistic humans.
• Was quickly invited to join the Corps. with Talem, on the condition he can patrol near Ashi's borders still. Talem joined him. Was gifted the blessed sword Stargleam for playing the role of town protector.

Adulthood:

• Raises Brogach after saving him from hunters.
• War occurred between Orc tribes and the federation of civilized towns. Talem found a certain abandoned temple, and became cursed. The war brought together Beren, Roan, Kane, and Calanon together, forging a lasting friendship between them. After one particular battle, Calanon was healed by Idalia the witch, though she was cryptic on her reasoning for doing so. Turned out the Orcs rose up after being led by Di'Xanos. Their leader escaped after the war concluded.
• Talem discovered with dark curse that turns their hosts into Dark Elves and destroys all moral inhibitions. Calanon returns to Ashi and finds it on fire. Fights and kills his adoptive brother, but not without being cursed himself in the process.
• Is banished from the town for being infected with evil, though he is told that it would not turn him into a Dark Elf as it would Talem. It would simply slowly kill him, for he had a human descendent long ago and the curse does not fit with anyone but full blooded elf lineage. They take his magic sword, Stargleam.
• Brogach and Calanon made their way north and were discovered by the Nymph Phelqwyn, destroying the majority of the curses power in exchange for his loyalty and services. Telling him she senses in him one of the three virtues of this world, specifically 'courage.' He was tasked with finding the Druid Yol'Drik, who was being held captive far to the northeast by barbarians, 'advised' by the mystic Ric'Chlod, who sought to extract sacred secrets from Yol'Drik. Calanon rescued Yol'Drik, thwarting the dark mystic and brought the druid back to the Nymph. The Nymph pledging to call upon him again when the need arises, and awarded him the Ocarina.
• Made one last visit to Safira, telling her he could not be seen around a high priestess with this cursed arm, even if the effects were destroyed. He could still sense its taint. She gave him his equipment, and told him one day they would meet again.
• On his travels, Calanon saved 'Secret' the informant from Varo'Shus, paid by a client to kill her for knowing too much.

Special Moments:

• Meeting Safira
• Meeting Brogach
• Lifting the curse of the Dorcha

Current Events: After saving Yol'Drik for Phelqwyn, Calanon and Brogach have been traveling alone, patrolling the high forest and searching for the legend of the sword, Weald, told to him by the Nymph. If he is to be helping the forest and those in need, that sword would be a great asset. He also searches for a way to permanently destroy his cursed arm.

@POOHEAD189 Some things need fixing

- Used too many stat points
- Must list out "elf senses" - be specific
- Need more details on spells, casting times, area of effect, draw backs, how long the spell lasts, how often it can be cast, what is needed to cast it and so forth
- Need more detail on potions
- What Makes the ocarina magical?

Sigil might add more, that was just what I saw an initial glance.

[Lady Absinthia]

New round has begun - Call rotation spot before you post once again, we are repeating the process just as last time. Once spot it called, you have 24 hours to post before you get dropped to bottom of rotation when your turn comes up.

[Salrynn]

7:45 please, I will be napping now so I don't want to be the first one. But can I be the third one in rotation?

[Dragoknighte]

Riv and I can go first then. Since Sal's taken 7:45, I'll go with 8 and 8.05 again.

[Lady Absinthia]

@Dragoknighte K, since you two are colabing will extend the 24 to 48 hours from now.

[Lucius Cypher]

Aye, apologies for the vagueness. I'll be more clear next time. And I'll have Malkus finish off the orc priest, if that is fine with you. Since the horseman is going to chase after Malkus he will use this chance to take out the weakened priest, though not without a fight.

[Sigil]

Keystone's got the next move in this round.

I'll mention again, we're not supposed to call our targets in the OOC. We get our place in the lineup, and choose our actions in our posts. Otherwise, it comes dangerously close to metagaming.

[Lucius Cypher]

Right right. Apologies, though just to be clear, what is the current post order? Salrynn wants to go third, Riv and Dragon are doing a collab, and I'm guessing you're going to do a post too. Does that mean I'm up first? Or shall I await that collab?

[Lady Absinthia]

The colab claimed first, Sigil second, Sal third, so currently if you claim the first available spot is forth

[Lady Absinthia]

@Dragoknighte @rivaan @Sigil

Okay, been 48+ hours, so Sigil go ahead and get your post together and posted.
