The Elder Scrolls: The Collector Chronicles

I went ahead and made a small post to set the mood. I gave the two of you some dialogue too @DJAtomika @Charter, I hope you don't mind.

@Butch

That's ok.

I'll try to get a post up tomorrow, current plans make it difficult to get a post in right now.

The Elder Scrolls: The Collector Chronicles

I personally think we should have it late in the evening. Our party could rest a night there, giving Tome control when morning comes back around. Though I'm up for whatever.

The Elder Scrolls: The Collector Chronicles

Alright, I will certainly be here as well, patiently awaiting your glorious return @BinderOfTomes.

As for the RP, I suppose we may as well spend some time in Riverwood, if some of you are willing to.

@Butch

I certainly am. What time of day should it be?

The Elder Scrolls: The Collector Chronicles

Yo, yo.

It's me, TomeBinder.

First of all, massive apologies for my sudden absence. Let me give you guys a quick explanation of events.

Basically, my girl took um, took offence to the amount of time I spent on here, and we had a row over it. Well, I say row, she just got mad and I just backed down.

Long story short, I signed out and at the time said "Okay, I wont go on there for a few days." Of course, I had every intention of saying something to you guys, but I forgot my password so I couldn't get back in. Yup, totally forgot it... along with the password for the email account I had dedicated to it. I know, I know. I was gonna make a new account, like this one, but didn't want to risk being caught in the act at the time lol, incase I pushed her over the edge!

Anyways, I'm back - kinda - things have calmed down at home, and she's apologised for flying off the handle at me. It wasn't really her fault or her overreacting... I mean I was on here like 4-6 hours a night sometimes lol. I think she just ended up getting frustrated with it, which is fair. In any case, I've managed to argue the case that this is my hobby, and whilst I can reduce the time I spend on here, I'm not about to stop doing it. She's okay'd that, so yeah, good to go.

Can't come back right away, still playing the good fiancé. Obviously, given the nature of things, this means my RPs will be have to go in hiatus until my return, or be killed here and now. In any case, if I was to resume them, I'd have to make new threads for this account... which I have written down the password for.

I will return in days, hopefully. If you guys can chill until then, I should be good to go.

@BinderOfTomes

Well, things could certainly be worse than waiting for your return. I'll still be here.

Edited my post slightly. Panicked when I saw I didn't post for 3 days-ish, so not my best work. Still not overly happy with it but moving forward none-the-less.

The Elder Scrolls: The Collector Chronicles

Reesh pondered over Gherken's questions "Well... I'm personally hoping the upcoming town has a blacksmith so I can possibly get a new shield. That said, I'm willing to head straight to the destination. The sooner we get this done, the better. As for your question about the mead... Maybe The Collector's lover demanded for it? I've done a job or two that was some rich person had a spoiled brat or lover who wanted something and they overpaid just cause they wanted it done quickly." Reesh has learnt not to question his contractor's intentions, at least for this amount of money. However, that didn't mean he played stupid to what was happening. "As for us argonians," Reesh shrugged, "I don't know. Maybe coincidence? I personally have no need to head back to the Marsh. My current job pays me well enough." Reesh didn't tell every detail, he also enjoyed the various adventures he's been on, seeing returning to the Black Marsh as a retirement plan more than a current one. But that was for him to know, as he didn't expect to get too attached to these people.

The Elder Scrolls: The Collector Chronicles

Good question. I think it's likely Whiterun guards would be there, unless the Dragonborn went side questing like a mofo :P

EDIT: As stated in the first OOC post, the story is set two days after the Dragonborn escaped his/her execution.

@TomeBinder

Ah, forgot/missed that. KK.

The Elder Scrolls: The Collector Chronicles

Reesh made sure to grab the iron shield from one of the bandit's he killed, while putting his steel shield on his back for travel. If he was lucky, he could either buy a new one or have that one bandaged up for the rest of this simple task. Or that's the hope, that it was indeed simple. Reesh took a glance at the beast of a man who lay on the ground with a large pool of blood circling his corpse. Had The Collector known of the danger? He, or she, must have if they sent so many combatants to retrieve it. Still though, it made him feel uneasy, why send them after a hand if the task was as simple as it would sound. Reesh was reminded of a time when a man bought his services to enter into an ancient crypt, only needing the mercenary's protection from traps or spiders. Long story short, the dead didn't like them entering their home and killed the man while the argonian had to fight his way out. He hoped it wasn't the case in this part of Tamriel.

Giving a quick glance at the party as they made themselves ready for travel, Reesh realized he probably wasn't the only one to be thinking similar thoughts. He decided it might be best to get these heavy thoughts of their shoulders, at least for a time. When the party had made it to the gate to leave the burnt-out town of Helgen, Reesh turned around and spoke up. "Since we'll be working together for longer, I think it's best we'd at least know each other by name and general profession." He hated making introductions, at least to be the first one to do so, but someone needed to break the ice. Funny, considering the land around them.

The heavily armoured argonian continued, "My name is Reesh." He gave a slightly exaggerated bow with a cheesy grin on his face, "Your own professional walking-shield." He then returned to a more professional stance and got straight to the point, "In short, I'm a merc who'll take the hits so you don't have to." The cheesy grin showed up again. "A few minutes ago, I showed off these skills." He awaited for someone else to speak, otherwise he just put himself in a very awkward situation.

Hey Tome, if we were to enter Riverwood, would there be Whiterun guards already there or did the events transpire within... say... 5-6 hours ago? Or do we simply find out when we get there? Reesh is probably going to try to get a new steel shield, if the blacksmith has that.

The Elder Scrolls: The Collector Chronicles

I have a quick question about the citys, are they going to be properly populated by many people or only 20 or so like the game?
