”Welcome.” A kind yet purposeful voice greeted from beyond the bar. He was a well dressed man of average height and a slim build. Sure he was handsome and elegantly dressed but beside that there was nothing outstanding about him except for the intangible air of confidence that surrounded him and the deep yearning pool of experience in his eyes.
He flashed the newcomer a passing glance, offering a welcoming smile to match his greeting then turned away busying himself with the many tasks behind the bar.

”Make yourself comfortable. All seats are free, someone will be with you soon.” The man called out from behind some shelves. A hint of some emotion briefly infiltrated his tone as he unnecessarily commented on the very obvious vacancy of the place, but it vanished as quick as it appeared.
Can't believe you've revivified the place again @Dark Light

May throw a new character in the ring. trying to get back into storytelling again


*Pounces on SongBook*
Hey :D good to see you. Glad you are still around. Hope all has been well?

Yea, prob not the last time I’ll cast some necromancy over this place either :p
@Dark Light I'll come up with an introduction for you, where do you imagine the Sword That Has Yet To Be Named to be resting? A tomb? In the grip of a dead past wielder?


Not too phased. Surprise me.
Once upon a time it was probably left impaling a corpse, but then animals dragged it to their lair. The bones that surrounded it slowly crumbling over the ages becoming lost in the dirt. Tunnelling brought it back to the surface where it was eaten and discarded. Then found and lost, stolen and sold. Once again forgotten at the bottom of a ravine along with another corpse in a long line of temporary owners. After that he went silent for a time. Taking the form of a dagger. He felt years pass. Ownership pass. Long bouts of still silence passed. Until now.
A firm grip awoke him. Who was this new master? Would they last? Could they help him? Would they be kind or malicious?

Just place it near someone who would like some more interaction.
I’m open to any ideas and or interactions. :)

<Snipped quote by Dark Light>

So it's an animated sentient sword? Lemme give it a quick run-down.


Not quite animated in the flying sense. It will need to be carried.
Could probably crawl or drag itself along by shifting to a smaller blade and using the decorations or fabric on the hilt.

Name: (unnamed)
Alias/Nicknames:
Race: An amorphic living blade.
Talks telepathically to its wielder.
Has an eye but its keen senses extend beyond physicality.
Gender: ♂
Background: Long long ago a powerful warrior’s soul entwined with his magical blade instead of passing over to the unknown. Eons passed, or maybe not, while the lost soul learned to harness the power of the blade and his own.
Personality: Talkative for an object, curious, bossy on occasion. It has a short attention span.

Skills:
Combat Skill: Combat foresight
The blade, if well connected to its wielder, can offer foresight and insight during battle. A mix of magic, keen senses and eons of experience.
Non-Combat Skill: Can alter its shape within limitations

Possessions: 3 grand gems in his hilt.
@Dark Cloud
No worries, just chuck up an intro post when ever you are ready.
No need for a CS or approval.
(Can still make a CS if you like.)
@Dark Light two Karls is not sustainable! There can be only one!


Well then, may the old gods be with you.

Name: Karl Vyapult
The Bear of Drevilna (within the Frostmark)
The Frostmark mountain (beyond Frostmark)
Titles: Vyapult Guildmaster
Description: At 28 years of age, Karl is the younger brother to the high lord of Kivhar, the Archduke of the Frostmark.
While they share similarities, the same brown hair, strong facial features and blue eyes, Karl is not considered as handsome as his older brother nor does he keep himself as well groomed, instead having his own rugged allure.

His dark hair is kept longer and more unruly, often braided and hanging between his shoulder blades while the sides of his heads are clean shaven as is popular amongst those of the old tribes. His beard fuller and unkempt, and his blue eyes are just a little paler. Less bright or intense than the Velikynaz. A comparison made not only of their eyes but between their personalities too.

Karl is however taller and more broad chested, as he is of most men.
Karl is large man. Tall and of wide of shoulders and strong too. He has thick powerful arms but his often indulgences prevent fine muscle definition. His hunting expeditions and time in the forest however stop him from ever being over weight.
It is due to his size and hairy form that he was given the nick name ‘the bear of Drevilna’ or ‘the Drevilna bear’. It was bestowed by the old tribes and he wears it proudly.

Claimant: Sharles, while he doesn’t really care too much on the subject his decision was made from opinions born of stories and gossip. His mind could easily sway. As it often does, landing on which ever outcome would benefit him the most at the time.

House Info:
The Great House of Vyapult


"To forest and frost!"


Reputation: While not popular, important or pretty enough to be the conversation of much gossip and idle chit chat, his name is often mentioned in brief when there is a conversation about his brother. Mostly it is his stature they whisper of or his heretical dealings with those who worship the old gods. It is known he visits and supports the old tribes and for that he is looked upon as part savage or unruly. Even more than most already think of those from the cold lands.
In large he is considered a simpleton, an unmannerly uneducated dullard of indulgences. All muscle and no brain.
Pity falls to his betrothed. Rumours of infidelity and long absences.
Ambitions: Karl is not an overly ambitious man, having taken the back seat to his brother his whole life. He is however tired of being in his shadow and wants to carve his own name into history, in one way or another.
Aptitudes: He is a skilled huntsman, learning the tricks of the old tribes. He knows much of their ways and of their gods. As a mountain of a man he is strong and resilient. He has a hidden cunning and awareness that is overlooked and goes unseen.
Vulnerabilities: Having not spent much time in the courts he knows not of the double crossing games of nobles.
He is impulsive and doesn’t take well to insult. He is quick to anger when the right buttons are pushed and can be stubborn.
He likes to indulge, food, wine, women.
He is of Mixed Blood.

Additional Info: Betrothed to Duchess Natalie of Mistlands.
Has one or two bastard children somewhere.
Does very little of the guild master role himself except when it comes to the tribes which he has a high standing amongst.
