"Greetings Ali."
He'd say along the way.

He'd let out a wince as the door was kicked in, the damage to it and the noise was discomforting. He was already thinking about the repairs on the hinges that would need to be done later, but at least the door didn't seem to full fall over or break away.

Once he would enter the building, he'd go to the bookshelf to place it back up against a wall.
If there were any books from it, he'd focus on organizing them alphabetically by their titles.
Seemingly almost absorbed in it.

"Ghost?"
He'd look over toward her with a raised brow in slight confusion.
Before looking back at himself. The, transparent effect would fade away seconds after.

"Not quite that, know a few tricks I'd say. But, I haven't returned from the grave or anything of that nature."

Should be able to post tomorrow

Tales Of Endoroth (A Slice Of Life MMO Roleplay) (CLOSED)

Hi @Eviledd1984
How's it going, what are the thoughts?

I Am Thou: A Persona/SMT Inspired Story

Is there any particular element set or game logic we're following?
Or will it be a bit open to narrative interpretation?

A way to keep the party together (without the jester) may be walking into a dungeon and procking a hidden event campaign could also be a thing (where the players have to have a main group together to continue the plot) likely granting a chance at rare items, or at worst locking the party from going to other dungeons until the story quest is complete.

It seems you really want the party to head after the Jester, but at the moment there is far more reasons not to.
As mentioned, some of the persons here minus jaiden since he does work in cybersecurity but would risk being banned don't really have a decent chance to stand up to the guy or away to achieve it which is why Jaiden wanted to avoid conflict with them earlier. The motivation for going after the Jester is a little low.

A simple solution I would see to tie them together would be blackmailing the doxxed players.
Perhaps giving a list of demands, which does force the group to generally stay together, in turn Jaiden receiving an online "bounty" on the guy. The alternative of Doxxing Jaiden would be less likely, and may have his job actively ban him from playing said game in turn for a full investigation
Or corrupting/threatening to corrupt character ID's...

Depending the Jester could be pissed off that they may have not received the artifact, or at least a fully functional one.
As Goibniu's automaton could have damaged or even broken it, which I don't think was noticed. Leading to the Jester needing to manipulate or otherwise hunt down the party again, whilst being looked out for, or needing to manipulate a situation to buy or trade the artifact indirectly from the party. If they try to trade it, they would need to bring something to the table and possibly reveal more of their own motivations.

It'd probably be less invasive to have the Jester be a background or reoccurring threat otherwise. Such as them paying other players to PK the party, and thus making dealing with Jester (or their midway guy) more pertinent. But that's more of a tightrope (don't want to overdo it), because... as a player, that could raise the chances of just, quitting tbh. So it'd have to be annoying but not overwhelming, probably more of a villain of the week type of deal.

@AwesomeZero5

Kinda brought up plot stuff before.
Honesty think ye need to take a day to go to the drawing board.
Write down a bunch of ideas, maybe poke about character backgrounds if you want to tie us in more. But take a breath to process everything. Even if it means going: "hey, what may motivate your character to go after X or what's a way to make this thing work?"
Gotta restructure.

Can't particularly say on the hacking causing persons to be harmed physically IRL/preventing log out stuff ideas. It might work, but am a tad impartial too it.

I'm pretty much going to ride it out either way.
Since again, pretty down with just RPing MMO stuff. I'd pretty much just be repeating myself tbh.

@Eviledd1984@Randomguy@vietmyke@shylarah
I'm still pretty down for continuing.
Although it's really up to the rest of ye guys.
Whether or not you're still interested?

Also what pointers could be used to help with the GMing?
Perhaps what things you ( @Eviledd1984 ) are struggling with in particular or what you're aiming to do at this moment...?

Tales Of Endoroth (A Slice Of Life MMO Roleplay) (CLOSED)

I'm around, but it's not my turn. O.o

@shylarah

Eh, it's already been 9 days counting think that's fair nuff-.
Ye can double check with GM but-

Should we do a general poke...?

"Guy, or mister guy. Heh, wouldn't it be fun, if I was called Mr.Power? Or Power guy....no.. POWER-MAN"
He would laugh and giggled to himself. "I'll think of something fun to call me later. My actual name is pretty bland, so it'll be fun to come up with a new one."

He would head off toward the cabin. Slowly approaching and checking around it. Although as it continued to downpour, something odd would seem to happen. His 'presence' as it were, would start to fade. The bubbles that were around him, had long vanished by this point. While one could still, see him... it became difficult to acknowledged his presence, or even remembering he was there.
He practically faded into the background, part of the scenery almost as if he was simply a tree among a forest, or a cloud among the sky.
It didn't render him invisible, just hard to sense and keep focus on.

One he was particularly trained in chi-focused observation, could probably still see him well enough.
It may take a slight bit of effort however.
