That raises an interesting question - I've been thinking about what role something like siege equipment really has in a world with with a bunch of mages running around. Is it worth building and transporting a bunch of mangonel when there's a bunch of people who can achieve the same effect just by waving their arms in the air?

It's not very relevant for me, since I'm the only character disconnected from the world of incantation, but how widely disseminated is magic? When push comes to shove, what percentage of the general population can lob balls of fire or something equivalent?

Well damn, posted in OOC xDMight as well ask a question: I would Imagine Vespar would be constantly threatened with sieges, attacks, invasion and so on?

Seems logical. I'm marching with a column intending to attack the city - so it seems that's the way things are going to go.

Oh, and I'm GMT+3 - Saudi time.

Well then I guess we'll be on the same side until the walls fall - though I imagine a long serving guardian will command a somewhat loftier position than a mercenary showing open contempt for the politics.

I'll be entering the city on my first RP, so I'll try and get it warmed up for you.
Sounds like you won't be joining me on the walls with the People's Army though.

I'm glad someone's on top of my character. :P Thanks.

It's now published online for all to see. I think I need your gmail if you want to edit it - there's a few holes that need filling.

And yes, I wrote a very polite and appreciated reply, hit the wrong button, deleted it, decided I couldn't be bothered for the evening and then promptly forgot about it. My bad. Short version was thankyou very much for the advice - since I'm brand new it's probably sensible if I only join one game to be going on with. Don't want to get my fingers in too many people's pies before I learn what kind of workload I'm getting myself in for. Plus, new people notoriously piss off without warning, and I'd rather not ruin too many stories when I get run down by a Saudi taxi.

As far as tables go - I've converted Headphones' into a google doc to make it easier to read/update.

I'm still working on it, but it should serve us OK I reckon.

I think present location might be a pretty useful criteria to note. Most of us seem to have moved around a fair bit since birth, and keeping track of who is where is a bit tricky.

Too true.
