First time making samosas from scratch; also making fried pakoras, fruit salad, and daal. I can't wait to try it all~

Maybe I'll play Cyberpunk 2077 some more. My brother maxed out my character a year and a half ago. Haven't seen him since. Miss him.

”Mr. Dawson, why don't you have a seat?” He said, gesturing to the brown leather chair he had his hand resting on.
The men behind Adel stepped forward. They each placed a firm hand around his upper arms, half-guiding, half-dragging Adel to the seat. If Adel struggled in any way, their plan would have been quickly subduing him with a blow to the cheek - but besides tensing up, the man didn’t fight.
They shoved Adel into the seat, twisting it so it faced the mirror. Vincent still had that smirk on his face as he picked up a bowl of shaving cream and an applicator brush on the counter.
Slowly, methodically, Vincent applied shaving cream to Adel's face while speaking.
”Now, my men tell me that you and your spies have decided to make it your home in White Pine. Not that I care too much about that.”
He set down the bowl, picking out a barber's blade instead. He opened it, the fresh gleam of a clean, sharp blade within.
“What I really care about, though, is who set you up to do this.”
The blade pressed against Adel's neck as Vincent leaned over, staring at the man through the mirror.
"A million times I have done this charade. The moment people figure it out, I get the boot." she thought.
"But don't you want to see the fear in their eyes when they see who you really are...? Don't you want dominion of this place, just like how you were unchallenged in Vaal Kastrix?" said the Voice.
Ciara scoffed, immediately thinking of Gulliver and Valen. "I'd love to wipe the smirk off their faces."
"It starts by building a rumor. A rumor of power. This could be the place to start."
She took a deep breath, narrowing her eyes resolutely at the Undermage. "Head Advisor, with all due respect, you have no right to ask me about my intentions. If you want answers..."
She stood from her seat, rising to her full height.
'I imagine you don't have lungs, but would you permit the privilege of me ravaging mine?'
”Odenfield's finest cigars? Please, don't let me intrude.” Ryllae said, a hint of a smile on her painted lips.
Her eyes glanced about the tavern, almost looking over her shoulder. Whether it was nerves or another reason, she wanted to be sure no one was eavesdropping on them. A beat, before she turned her gaze back to Anton. Her eyes stared at him dead on, serious and unwavering.
”The Glasic Fields are under attack. It is unsafe to travel to or near it. Rumours are that the rebellion is finally making its move. And, moreso a shred of incendiary gossip, but they say His Grace, Duke Rhinecliff, is involved…”
Her arms folded on the table, and her gaze dropped, dismay crossing her delicate features. ”It means your plans with the Seeds may be futile.”
A long pause, before her eyes flickered over to him, and that soft smile was back on her face. It almost appeared mischievous. ”Unless someone just so happened to steal from the Fields before this… unfortunate incident.”
Her smile grew a little wider. ”You can still attend your meeting with the representative of His Grace, but do it with my Seeds. I don't ask for anything in return, except for you to allow me and my partner to accompany you in your goal.”
She leaned back in her seat, butterflies fluttering in her hair, one moving to land on her cheek. Her eyes stared unblinking at him, confident he wouldn't turn her down.
To subvert an attack, you need a minimum of 10 Personnel. This sacrifice will take away all your Personnel if you have under 50 Personnel, and half of your Personnal if you have over 50. This safeguards your district from attack for three turns.
i think it is important to note here that he is the one that first brought this game to my attention and i've been intermittently yelling at him to join for months
Wow, the plot twist is real o0o;;
Well, the more the merrier, we will be going into 2025 stronger than ever! I can't wait to see what shenanigans we get up to~
@HereComesTheSnow Indeed, I've seen your name pop up quite a few times! :> I'm glad you've decided to join us.
Both concepts are really good and I can see both working really well. The first one allows for the Wizard Queen or Vulluin to get in touch to see if their services can't be used for the Crown, while the second one will definitely catch Captain Thorne's attention. And I can definitely forsee the Crown treating her returned subject well in an effort to keep them on her side, with this whole uprising thing going on... xD
Whatever plan you decide, I think your idea is totally fit for a CS. :>
@HereComesTheSnow Ooh, another Brother of the Bones of the Sea? That sounds riveting to me~ I am certain @AWildSquirtle won't mind the company, but alas I can't speak for them. Regardless, I'll forward you what has been written on the new nation so far so you can start thinking about your concept. :>
@AWildSquirtle For sure, I try to be as open to player ideas as possible, If there's anything that I feel should be changed, I will definitely let you know. :>
@AWildSquirtle Oh these are wonderful, thank you for your interest! I am personally leaning towards Contestant Number One, as we don't have anyone from across the seas. A new foreign power's diplomat would be very, very fascinating to pursue. If you want to go ahead with this idea, I'd want you to tell me all you could about the new foreign power so I can build some NPCs around it, mainly the governing power.
I am leaning against Contestant Number Two as the Tearmoon Coven is Izurich's child, and they are currently on leave, so I'm not able to approve or disapprove aspects of the new Tearmoon member without them being here. ^^;
Having said that, if there's anything more you wanted to run by me, please feel free to ask here in the OOC or DM me. I'm looking forward to your Character Sheet, which you can post either in this thread or DMs. :>
Yep, I could see that working. Feel free to create a CS based around this! They probably wouldn't start out with a Seed, but that can be given later in the RP.
Sure, as long as the tower is slow-moving, like five squares per day.
