D&D 5e - Asembia: Untitled Roles

Hi Ryonara,

As our recent posts in this OOC would say, we are open to a 4th player character joining the party. For the current party members we have a Angus the ancestral barbarian, Najila the djinn warlock, and Orchid the eldritch knight fighter. But you can choose a same or different class of the already existing party members, its really up to what you feel and decide. And don't feel rushed as I would like to get a sense of the character that you decide on and discuss how they could fit into the world of Assembia. The first post should have enough general information of the setting and history of its major regions. If there are other questions that you have of the setting, I would be happy to discuss them here in the OOC or PM me if there is something about your character that you don't want to be reveal until ready to mention in the OOC or reveal in the story in the IC.

EDIT:
I also do recall you posting back when this was still an interest check, so you could use that character or another, just let us know. And if you think you will be too busy or away for some time, please just give us heads up when you can.

Acquistions Incorporated [D&D 5e]

I've been very busy with work and other interests that I will have to drop. But I hope you all do enjoy the game as it does look fun and have enjoyed watching/listening to the live streams that it is based from.

I can hit up my old party and see if they're still kicking. Want me to tell em to come straight here or message you first? Work out the details of their capture and such.

@Lucius Cypher

Well before you to reach to this possible player, first I would like to ask @rush99999 and @Guardian Angel Haruki, would you two be okay with a 4th party member eventually joining? If so then you can tell this other player to come message here so we can get to know them as they create their character and eventually join the party.

I know we're still kinda in a bind right now, but what are we going to do about our two drop outs? Now that Dark Light dropped and Vixen hasn't logged on since this RP started.

@Lucius Cypher

Currently I will be treating Azzen and Aron as NPCs while the party is in this dungeon. Although I will try to think of a story reason of why the character leaves the party to do their own thing as I don't feel comfortable controlling other player's characters for an very extended time (as if I am the player using and developing the character) when the player leave or are absent. But if you think your characters need them for a bit more time and have a good enough reason to stay a bit longer with the party, then sure, that character will tag along for a bit longer.

For Vixen's case it is unknown if there will be a return or not as I have not heard of any ETA of a possible return date or decision to drop. Because of this, as mentioned just previously, will have a story reason for Aron to leave the party, but if Vixen does return and still mentions the interest to continue playing, then we can discuss how Aron could rejoin the party or could create another character.

Also for when the party eventually have only the 3 members (Angus, Najila, and Orchid) I would be okay for a new member to join if any you know anyone who may be interested before someone else steps in and shows interests in joining. That person may also be held else where in this dungeon as they were one of Tenkern Swiggin's hired workers that was with traveling group in the Novus Alliance and may have already been questioned by the employer.

@Guardian Angel Haruki
I felt like confirming here as I don't think I really mentioned it in the IC as I was focused with the Aron, Azzen, and the drake. But as Najila's recent post and everyone's passive perception, no one heard any movement or coughing from the employer to indicate that he was still in the room.

D&D 5e - Asembia: Untitled Roles

The force of Angus's javelin towards the drake would be enough to tear and pull enough for Aron to push away its over bearing body. Back on all fours, the drake saw its previous target to once again stand and released a hissing growl of rage. It tried to whip its tail towards Aron as it bounds towards for Angus. Luckily the Aron was easily able see the tail attack coming and was able to instead strike back it instead than getting hurt. But eh drake only gave a small wince to eats injured tail and it focus was on Angus as it bounded and leapt onto the highlander and sank it ever serrated teeth into the highlander, once again bringing him down.

Would like to ask for the following this round. First wait for a post from Angus, then wait for a post from me for the drake.

Then everyone (Orchid, Najilia, and even Angus) can make a post at any time as all allies' would have a fresh new turn as all of your initiative are next to each other. And on my post I will make a post for Aron and Azzen, then the drake. And we should be good with pacing from there.

When Najila alerted him that the highlander Ironbane fell and needed help, Azzen stepped out from around the corner as he prepared a healing spell "Don't you die on us now." As he spoke, the healing magic made its way towards the unconscious highlander and causing him to awaken from his unconscious state.

Eventually he would reach to the end of the hall and was at the mouth of the new spacious room where the fight has begun. He could no longer see where the employer may have gone, but felt save enough being behind Ironbane. Seeing the drake attacking Aron, Azzen viciously spoke out a spell in infernal. Although it might not understand what was said, the magic would allow some psychic harm, but the drake would appear to have been able to ignore the spell.

Aron, still busy with the attacking drake, tried to give a powerful two handed swing with his longsword into it, but the drake quickly sprang up and with the force its forelegs, kept Aron's arms back from fully swinging his blade and began leaning into Aron as its tooth maw readied to try and bite into him.

Keratia: Blade Maiden’s Exploits

Caeda gave a sigh of relief after hearing the good news of Azure and the rest of the crew eradicating and throwing what was left in the storage. At the mention of the potion not being needed with Sticky's current state, she accepted the idea of the care the two felt of each other's injuries. "Well, if you're already feeling better, then perhaps it is best with me given my exposure in that room. Thank you." She reached out to grab and place the potion in her bag, while trying to not have Othie feel cramped inside.

Then came the movement Othie in her bag, making her want to check up on her pixie friend with the current news. But first needed to at least answer Sticky's question of how she knew of the sack and monsters. "I suppose you could say that given my family background of birth, I had a bit of a fey sense of something foul. That and my cabin is right above the storage room, I couldn't hear with the storm outside, but felt something wasn't right as I felt an unease while trying to rest. But speaking of rest, I think we both need some time to rest given how today has been, so rest easy Sticky." As she finished, she waved goodbye and closed her door. After hearing Sticky walk away, she locked herself in and went to Othie to see how she was feeling. "I'm sure you must have heard our discussion. Do you feel any better now?"
