Blackbeard

[ Interest Check ] Pisces (Sci-Fi Concept)

Tentative interest. So do you have a plot for this underwater opera or will we be making it up as we go along.

No worries, no rush.

---- The path is laid ----
Guided out of the grandiose meeting room and through a narrow corridor, the rag-tag ensemble of cut-throats and sell-swords bustled their way through the usually placid building. A couple of guards, the two who were showing them out, split off to either side allowing them passage. Fine paintings on the walls and polished dark-wood tables adorned with golden ornaments bordered the greeting hall, on the other side of which stood an unnaturally short serf. A man whom tried to give a smile, but failed in his attempts.

"So I trust you all understand." said the aged attendant, his face hung as a tapestry of wrinkles as he hobbled about with a knobby cane. "There is an Inn not far from here, you can all stay there for the night." A musky, strained tone to his voice. As if it even exhausted him to speak.
Waving his hand with what little strength he could muster he began to shun the unwashed guests outside, but not before he quickly grabbed one of them by the hand and stuffed a small envelope into his/her grasp before pushing on the dark wood of the iron studded door, causing the iron handle to clank as it shut. The letter read...

"It is expected of you all to depart in the morning. One of my retainers will meet with you at the Inn that was suggested. He shall give you some gold, to help you on your journey, and supply you all with a horse. Once you are all satisfied, and I trust you will be, he shall pass on what little information we have of the Tome and its holders whereabouts. I would appreciate a swift ending to this task and to your targets life, my Tome must be returned undamaged. and I will not accept failure."

The small concise letter was finished with a wax stamp of the Barons sigil. The sun would soon set , the light was already beginning to drain from the sky. The regular bustle of voices and movement had dwindled in the streets and lamps were being lit, shining through the thick glass windows. Not far from the wooden door that the band of mercenaries were stood, was the Black Bull Inn. Not a very flashy establishment but it had straw beds, food and drink. It would do for the night. It gave the group a small amount of time to get to know each other, measure themselves to one another and to hopefully find the reason to work together.

Upon opening the tavern doors they would be welcomed by warm light and jovial laughter. The barman had the situation previously explained, and fortunately he had experience with the dregs of the underworld before. He didn't expect trouble, he just had to set them up for the night as he was promised they would be leaving at early light. He wasn't in shape, it looked as if he had been poured into his dirty clothes, overflowing from almost every seem. If there was anything he knew though, it was hospitality, "Evening gents and, not so gents. Whata'ya having?"

Hellbent

Alright, sorry to hear that. In the future you might be able to help me with a few NPC things or something?

Anyway with Skittlez now voicing her intention and Aldridge seemingly disappeared I'm going to throw out the cast list. I've decided to accept everyone from the original interest check!

Apologies to Apokalipse, I still liked your CS. I'll definitely contact you if anyone drops.

Edit: So I've put up an opening post! You can all go to said Inn and get to know each other :) have fun guys!

Hellbent

Well alright then. Thanks guys. I'll give some times for those few to post their characters then (Please voice yourself if your not going to anymore) and apart from that I might not be so active the rest of the day, it's Transfer deadline day :D

Edit: If the others haven't posted anything by tomorrow then I will choose from the current crop and close off the RP. I would like to get this started sooner rather than later as I don't want anyones interest to wain for waiting to long. So that means The IC will be starting late tomorrow! I already have an opening post drafted up :)

Hellbent

Hmm. Well with two new people along with the two from the Interest check coming back. Three already here and Skittles still to throw out her CS, that makes eight people for the four spaces I wanted, which I then bumped up to five.

Hmmm, how would everyone feel about a competition? I'll wait for the ones who have yet to post a CS, and I'll let anyone edit their CS it they want to. And then once all applicants are in I'll pick the best five?

Star Wars - A New Age

Apologies!

Hellbent

You don't have to, even though it would be nice. Looking forward to it.

Star Wars - A New Age

- Double post -

That keeps happening...

Star Wars - A New Age

I know nothing of the Star-wars universe outside of the films, but I was once part of a Star wars RP once and enjoyed it a lot. As long as my inexperience isn't a problem I'd like to show interest.
