Title: Getting Things Started


Shem Adare - July 11, 2006 02:46 PM (GMT)
I thought since the site seems to finally be getting some profiles up (mine's done, Oriana's is almost done, Penril's is up) we ought to have a thread about getting our characters into the game.

Oriana, since we're both in Marloren at the moment, do you think we might be able to do something together? I can see her having to do a good deed and stopping Shem from being scammed/tricked/murdered in a grisly fashion. He's a bit of a country boy and far too trusting for Marloren.

Penril Tanith - July 11, 2006 08:52 PM (GMT)
Ooh, nice. I do hope I get approved. Otherwise, I'm always in the Prancing Pony :P

Oriana Lark - July 11, 2006 09:42 PM (GMT)
I would love to RP, but I have to abide by my own rules and wait for one of my fellow overlords to approve my chronicles. (I think Seyira doesn't have access for a few days, Valandil is gone for a week or so, and I dunno where Vale is at the moment. I'll bug him to look at it later.)

Penril, my comments on your bio are up.

Penril Tanith - July 12, 2006 10:05 PM (GMT)
Maybe you should poke them others with a stick or something. :look

Seyira Vivienne - July 13, 2006 07:49 PM (GMT)
She has poked, and her chronicles have been approved, so she is free to RP. ^_^

Penril Tanith - July 13, 2006 08:33 PM (GMT)
Nice. So let's plot. :D

Seyira Vivienne - July 13, 2006 08:35 PM (GMT)
Plot away. I shall join you.....whenever. :look

Penril Tanith - July 14, 2006 11:17 AM (GMT)
Well, *eyes Oriana and Shem* if ever you do get to Olencia, I'll be happy to play... :D

Seyira Vivienne - July 14, 2006 05:26 PM (GMT)
I'm in Olencia....I think. :errr:

Penril Tanith - July 14, 2006 10:32 PM (GMT)
Well if you happen to drop off in my inn... seeing as you're quite pretty, prepare to be harassed. :look

Lucan Issod - July 15, 2006 07:01 AM (GMT)
Im always up for a good rp. Count me in... somewhere.

Elwin Markial - July 15, 2006 07:10 AM (GMT)
Go ahead at the Pony, all are welcome.

(Word of Advice: Don't bring your pretty girlfriend at the pony)

Lucan Issod - July 15, 2006 07:12 AM (GMT)
Im in Maloren... So ya...

Penril Tanith - July 15, 2006 07:43 AM (GMT)
XD
Well we can just start new threads when the key people arrive in Olencia. Too much RPing in one thread is confusing, trust me. X_X

Oriana Lark - July 15, 2006 03:22 PM (GMT)
I will eventually go to Olencia to meet my cousin... :look But of course, they don't know that yet. :P

Edit: Because I'm dumb.

Lucan Issod - July 15, 2006 04:55 PM (GMT)
Maybe I'll go to Olencia to join the guard... ya! But first to rp in Maloren XD any takers?

Oriana Lark - July 15, 2006 04:56 PM (GMT)
I'd love to. :)

Lucan Issod - July 15, 2006 05:01 PM (GMT)
I think the gorgan brothers need to meet a good thief ^^

Seyira Vivienne - July 15, 2006 05:02 PM (GMT)
Thieves and spies.....

This place is doing wonderfully....

Lucan Issod - July 15, 2006 05:21 PM (GMT)
As I've said to Oriana, the Admins did a marvelous job. ^^

Penril Tanith - July 15, 2006 10:00 PM (GMT)
*waves from the Pony*
Beautiful ladies, beware. :P

Rhys Horsehand - July 16, 2006 12:00 AM (GMT)
Anyone need a horse? From Marlas? (Even though at the moment most people would probably need a horse to get to Marlas?)

On another note, I was wondering if the Admins would like me to create a guide to the horse breeds and types in Olencia. I didn't see much information on them, except that wild ones exist in Marlas Plains. Seeing as my character is a horse breeder and trainer, and in RL I'm a horse owner and am generally obsessed with them, I think I would be able to come up with a fairly detailed list. I have some ideas already, and you could veto or add to whatever you want, of course. Would you like me to post it somewhere?

Oriana Lark - July 16, 2006 06:28 PM (GMT)
That would be lovely. :) You may want to speak with Tsuko as well - he's aiming for High Seat of Marlas.

Tsuko Theras - July 16, 2006 07:06 PM (GMT)
I'll copy a post I made in Spam about this:

Actually, Tsuko might have need of horses for his son's wedding that's going to be reaaaaaal soon :look (Must...work...up...strength...to...overcome...laziness...in...writing...bio!) I figure since Marlas society is all horse-obsessed horses probably would play a role in lots of important gatherings.

Oh, and I might need some OOC help with horseflesh too ;)

Oriana Lark - July 16, 2006 07:28 PM (GMT)
With the way things are going, I think we're going to need more staff... Valandil is supposed to return today, though I think...

Lucan Issod - July 16, 2006 08:12 PM (GMT)
*Is Confused by Oriana's statement*

Rhys Horsehand - July 16, 2006 08:49 PM (GMT)
Hey, Tsuko!

I like the idea of horses having an important role in ceremony and whatnot, it adds an interesting twist to culture in Marlas. In terms of buying a horse for the wedding, I can get the annual (or bi-annual, or semi-annual, if you prefer...I'm assuming you'll have the High Seat, and get to determine when such fairs occur) Horse Fair in Marlas started, if you don't mind. We can meet up there!

I'm always willing to give help about horses, OOC or otherwise. Like I said earlier, in RL I'm lucky enough to own one, and I never really outgrew that stage of horse-obession lots of little girls go through when they're about nine years old (that is one of the reasons Rhys is a horsewoman, my RPing skills are somewhat rusty, and I figured it's best to RP what you know). Besides, if I don't know the answer to your questions, chances are, I will know where to find it or look it up!

Oriana,
I put the list of horse breeds up in the Spam folder because the Marlas family tree is in there, and it seemed rather fitting to put my somewhat detail-oriented post in there, too. Feel free to offer alterations or suggestions!

Penril Tanith - July 16, 2006 09:17 PM (GMT)
Hmm. I might need the use of a horse soon. XD

Rhys Horsehand - July 16, 2006 10:13 PM (GMT)
Sounds good! Pop on in, if Tsuko will let me get one started (being on the High Seat and all, these things would need his authorization), I'll be at the Horse Fair! I must say, Dragon Horse Stables isn't terribly prominent even if it has some great horses, so it might be a good place to go if you need to keep your purchases quiet, or merely more reasonably priced than better-known stables.

Rhys may or may not stand for being harrassed, however, so I'd approach with caution. (B

Tsuko Theras - July 17, 2006 03:04 AM (GMT)
Well, I suppose it could be one of Tsuko's "little acts of charity". Oh, it's kind of a double wedding (Tsuko has a nephew who's getting married too), so perhaps I could say Tsuko's already picked the cream of the crop from all the famous stables and is looking for more from other stables? Maybe a bit of both? :)

Rhys Horsehand - July 17, 2006 03:14 AM (GMT)
Sure, sounds reasonable! Dragon Horse Farms would be more than willing to show Tsuko their best (btw, what is his title? Duke? Baron? Just plain old "Lord"?), charity or no. They're quite sure he'll come back for reasons besides charity!

Would you like me to get the ball rolling in the Marlas forum, or would you prefer to post first? It doesn't matter either way to me.

And does anyone know the value of Olencian money? I wouldn't want to be demanding too much money (or too little) for a horse.

Lucan Issod - July 17, 2006 05:36 AM (GMT)
Anyone in Maloren who wouldnt mind meeting a skilled thief?

Penril Tanith - July 17, 2006 09:33 AM (GMT)
I'm going to start a thread in which I get rid of a monster. Who wants to join?

Sezerix Valhalus - July 17, 2006 11:12 AM (GMT)
I'll join when/if I get accepted. It'd be interesting seeing how our histories meet anyways.

And also, I put that I already had a Marlan horse in my profile, but I think I'll change it to a regular horse that will die, so I can get one from Rhys :P

Hadrian Evaristus - July 17, 2006 11:15 AM (GMT)
Ooh, horses? This lord requires more vespine gas horses in his stable. :D Count me in plox.

Elwin Markial - July 17, 2006 01:50 PM (GMT)
Ow alright... count me in then Pen (monster hunting that is).

Let's fire up that friction between us then :D

Lucan Issod - July 17, 2006 04:22 PM (GMT)
Hadrian... vespine gas??? You dont play starcraft do you... ?? lol

Penril Tanith - July 17, 2006 08:53 PM (GMT)
Expect it up on wednesday (GMT+8). I have so much work to catch up on. -_-

Rhys Horsehand - July 17, 2006 09:55 PM (GMT)
Well, I've gotten impatient to get things rolling in Marlas, so I think I'll get the Horse Fair started. If anyone needs a good horse, you know where to find one!

Joscelyn Gedamos - July 23, 2006 07:30 PM (GMT)
Well, since the one RP I was currently in has pretty much come to a close, I'm left RP-less.

X_X

So, anyone interested in RP'ing in or around the Calandae area (though of course travelling to another area is not out of the question)?
