To The Edge of the World...

I'm still pretty new here and to group games, so please forgive me if this is a silly question.

Is there a limit on how fast we can post? I mean, does a person need to wait for a certain number of people to post before they post again?

@Garth

Definitely not a hard and fast rule, but I tend to go by feel. If it seems like the story should wait on someone to have a chance to post before the scene continues, I give them a day before fudging it. But if I'm not waiting on anything in particular, then don't mind posting sooner.

As the sky darkened, the strengthening wind pushed the Elfleda even faster toward the bay at Avery's Isle. But luckily, the storm seemed to be gathering mostly behind them. "Looks like it'll miss us!" cried out Captain Harris Thorne, almost sounding disappointed to miss the opportunity to battle a raging sea.

"Those that'll be going to shore, get ready," the captains voice boomed, easily heard above the sounds of the sea. "We'll be settin' anchor in the bay and you'll take the dinghy ta shore."

Already the sailors were working to lower the sails.

"Perhaps just one for me too," Cedric said, coming up toward the rather sea-sick looking elf and the beautiful lady who was the bearer of ale. He produced a wooden stein that was hung from a leather strap on his belt and poured himself a full mug. "Wouldn't want any to spill!" He took a gulp, the roughening sea making him lose a little down his stubble and onto his shirt, but he didn't seem to pay it any mind besides wiping it away with the sleeve of his shirt. "You two planning on going ashore to meet the Constable?"

Hi Kel ^^ I'm just gonna jump in like I oftentimes do. I hope that's ok ^w^;;

@Marcus XVI

To The Edge of the World...

I jumped in I hope that is okay, I love to write.

@Wick

Welcome! Just Fyi though, the ship's crew would be regular sailors, not pirates.

To The Edge of the World...

I'm not worried about the length, IronWill. No need to apologize!

Do you guys want to do a little more RP before the party arrives at Avery's Isle? Or should I go ahead and fast forward us to there?

To The Edge of the World...

Cedric couldn't help but feel a small thrill of excitement as he looked out toward Avery's Isle. The island seemed to grow larger by the minute as the Elfleda drew closer, so that the travelers on board could begin to make out shapes of houses and other structures dotted around the bay, as well as a few smaller boats bobbing in the bay.

"Exciting, isn't it?" a female voice nearby said. "Open sea, new land, and a whole world to discover."

Cedric turned to look and realized the halfling was not addressing him, but another of their fellow traveling companions. Not that he'd let that stop him. "Here, here! I'll drink to that tonight when we're supping with the Constable! Just think... after sailing on from Avery's Isle, we may be the only ones alive today to see the sights we'll see!"

Cedric

Cedric loves freedom, the type of freedom you cannot find in a rural culture. His parents never traveled more than 12 miles from their farm, nor did they want to. But Cedric was cut from a different cloth; he had to get out and see the world. He combined his love of horses with his dream and started working for the local sheriff, running messages back and forth to the capital. Pretty quickly he was promoted to being one of the many messengers for the king and got to ride throughout the kingdom. But even that additional range has begun to bore him. He is desperate to travel farther, and the only job he knows that will allow him to earn a living as well as travel to the ends of the world is adventuring.

i will post my character in a few minutes

@IronWill

Looks good! Do you want a chance to introduce your character in the IC before I post again?

To The Edge of the World...

Wow, i feel like I should have written a lot more now. I'm sorry about that, all of my experience is verbal. Writing is a bit harder than i thought it would be

@Karolus

It's fine! I put the RP up as 'free' to 'casual' so you're definitely within that. :) I figured everyone will have some short posts and some slightly longer posts as the RP moves and we've got more info to work with.

To The Edge of the World...

Sounds good IronWill!

For all: I put an IC post to get us rolling, so feel free to post up a character introduction whenever you're ready. (Don't feel too rushed, I haven't even figured out what character I want to play yet as my own PC! lol )
