“...Maiken.”
No response.
“Kaia.”
No response.
“Lisbet?”
Leifr's trusty steed snorted, and in response he ran his hand through his hair in deep thought.
“And I thought they were all cute names, too. Not strong, not fierce, not girly... Maybe you want something dignified, like a noblewoman?”
No response.
Leifr nervously chuckled, the back of his mind pestering him that he was talking to a horse. He glanced around his surroundings and breathed a relaxed sigh when no one was paying him any mind. Still, it felt odd being seen as an equal, or at least not as a noble. Walking through the streets on foot or leading the warhorse around busy haulers, people barely passed him a glance and when they did I was usually a brief flash of a smile or a nod of the head before going on with their lives. It definitely felt odd, but the faint grin on his lips proved that it wasn't unpleasant.
Of course, time flies when you are naming a (finicky) horse and observing the populace. Leifr would've walked past the barracks if he didn't the more numerous guards around the area. Tying his warhorse to a nearby post, Leifr turned towards the front door and stood outside it for a moment. His first time in a barracks, he was bracing himself for anything as he didn't know what to expect. As he reached for the door, a guard opened the door from the inside first. The guard scrutinized Leifr from head to toe, and closed his eyes and rubbed his chin as if deep in thought. Leifr stared motionlessly, half frozen from confusion and half frozen from anticipation. The guard's eyes opened calmly, and with an experienced grimace he nodded. Leifr stood their quietly, wondering why the man was nodding. The guard maneuvered around the statuesque Leifr, when his voice suddenly commanded from behind.
“If yer goin' inside, go inside. We don't 'ave time to waste walkin' 'round gawkin' folks like ya.”
Leifr studdered a “yes, sir!” and hurried into the barracks.
It was, in a way, cozy. There weren't many guards, but it was still... cozy. A guard approached Leifr, to which Leifr immediately replied:
“I'm looking for Sir Selvus about the, uh, rumor.”
Leifr couldn't help but shrink back with all the chuckles and snickers coming from the other few guards as they waited for Selvus' reaction.

Best summed up with the phrase: "Tries really hard."
A pitiable excuse of a person, but I try really hard.

I fixed the time difference by saying that Fiore just looked around the barracks and stared at it in silence for twenty minutes, it that still too small?
Twenty minutes... The guards must be suspicious. But I can work with that!
Ryu said
Should I just post and begin the job or should I wait for Leifr to arrive? I should post, right?Renose tell me what to do, kamisama.
Well, ya did sorta have Fiore noticed Leifr's first post, so there's a bit of a time warp between us if Leifr suddenly arrived at the barracks not two minutes after Fiore did, yet was already in the tavern and talked to some cheeky girl and a way-too-macho bartender and managed to cross the town in that tiny timeframe...
But that's just me~
Edit: It might be realistic if Leifr ran into Fiore and Selvus when they were leaving the barracks... but that'd mean I'd have to dwaddle around by myself for a time...
Ryu said
Galmin get +1 on Endurance, I believe. Or was it might? I forgot.
Galmin Racial Bonus is +1 Endurance, ya.
So just subtract 1 Endurance and everyone would have 25.
And yes, the XP bonus you get from your Aptitude and Flaws, you spend on Traits (Acrobatics, Weapon Proficiency, Riding, etc.) and Talents (OP Nobility, Dark Contract, DESTINY, etc.).
ERode said druglordYes.
ERode said Brent RolessNo.
ERode said ...the knight is a bara.
For a second I thought you called Leafer a "bra."
I had to google "bara."
...
ಠ_ಠ
Edit: Now that ERode is here and mentioned my previous slower posting speed, I currently can't seem to think of what to do with Leifr...

I just got ignored

But I'll probably be going either as a spiky rock or a fabulous gem.
Wut?

There was a lot of jokes in between, and by that, I meant I was the only one trying to make jokes.
Renose is quite diligent and direct when it comes to GMing...
If you don't mind my asking, what sort of character concept will you go for, ERode?
Of course, I'll understand if you want to keep it secret from us players.
(Though, you should let the GM see every once in a while. It'll save you from having to overhaul the CS fifteen times (lol) if you make a mistake.)

Ryu said There are a low amount of *dedicated* people in this RP
Pyromania99 said I'm just glad we have dedicated people. It's hard to find in this day and age.
I'm pretty sure all of us who submitted a CS are dedicated. UnendingEmpire just happened to be moving this time.
The rather large amount of information in the OOC just to make a character might be good at weeding the less enthusiastic people out, though.
Ryu said ...it's very fun to talk to you guys in the OOC while we wait in the IC for someone to post.
Indeed, teasing characters that look half their age and wondering about the gender of a nameless horse is quite fun~
