Waiting for posts of those in Morgoth's stronghold, especially Terias.
Would be a shame if he couldn't reply before I move the game along... :D

Sorry for the delay, had problems with AC-in. Mind teling me where exactly I am?

In front of Lord Easthome who has asked you a question. Still the night before the three humans left the encampment.

EDIT: check the 6th post on the last page of the roleplay.

If there is no reply from the dwarves before the end of the weekend I shall move things on for them.

I got inspired by one of Larry's ideas in another game I am participating in and he has kindly allowed me to use his idea. Therefore a reward system shall be implemented into the game. After completing certain tasks, winning battles, overcoming puzzles I shall give out reward points. Depending on the difficulty of the task the number of reward points will range from 1 to 10. After reaching ten reward points you could collect a reward which would be discussed in pm's with me. You could upgrade some of your equipment or become better at whatever you do. For this I would like if everyone could pm me a list of their equipment Also for something which negatively effects the progress of the main mission negative reward points shall be given out (see Feldorn below).

Reward points so far.

Turin

1 for taking command of the group in the beginning and not failing them.
2 for gaining the friendship of Lord Easthome's son.
2 for succesfully selling Therlion (only two because he only had a minor part in doing so)
4 for killing two wolves
Total: 9

Roland

7 for his heroic actions in the battle against the wolves, and alerting his companions, therefore saving the group
Total: 7

Robyn

4 for negotiating the sale of Therlion
2 for her part in the battle against the wolves
Total: 6

Therlion

2 for not giving anything away. Yet. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Total: 2

Terias

6 for the fight against the trolls.
3 for the idea of distracting the guards.
Total: 9

Feldorn

-5 (minus 5) for giving away the plan during his torture
Total: -5

Kirûn

3 for succesfully selling the two elves
Total: 3

Bober

3 for succesfully selling the two elves
Total: 3


If you think I have forgotten some acts of merit you have done then pm me or post here.

A list of my equipment. Hm. My sword and knives have probably been taken away from me, so all I have is my half-robes.

I sent mine a while back.
Was it everything that you needed?

Yes. I got both of yours. I need everyone else's BTW.

EDIT: Yes, Larry it is enough.

Awesome system! This makes the game twice as good!

I PM'd you what I thought you needed. Hope it helps.

For Cienden:
Two humans and five orcs in the group. Thanks for the pm. I shall try and amend the situation.

Thank you, dplax!

For the fight against the silver backs the following reward points are given out:
Turin: 7 (total becomes 16)
Roland: 8 (total becomes 15)
Robyn: 6 (total becomes 12)

As I stated earlier a reward becomes available for 10 points. So could Larry and Sythe pm with idead for what they would like as rewards?

Robyn's reward is going to be the wolfpup as a companion, so her reward points go down to 2.

I have agreed with Larry upon what Turin's reward will be and he shall describe it in his next post.

I still need Sythe to pm me for what he would like as a reward.

Also waiting on posts from either Cienden or Xen (pm to Cienden) and The Fallen One (although he said he won't be able to post for some time).

The timeline of the game:

The same day that Turin, Robyn, Roland and Therlion arrived at Lord Easthome's town Kirûn, Bober, Terias and Feldorn arrived at the stronghold. The stronghold plot is still on this same day soit seems that they have some catching up to do.

For Therlion two days have passed since.

For Turin's group two days have passed also, but now they have a three day journey ahead of them.

So as to speed up the game I propose that in retrospect we introduce a period of several days of just staying on the same level of the stronghold for Kirûn and Bober and the same amount of time for Terias and Feldorn in their respective cells. For Therlion we could just have three days when he doesn't do anything.

Would anyone have any problems with this?

Let's skip those uneventfull days, yes.

Before skipping "those uneventful days" I would still like to have some feedback from Cienden or The Fallen One.

I suppose so.

I'll have a post up tomorrow morning CET. I've got to go now and won't be online any more tonight.

Since the game has slowed down I'll just add a summary for everyone to be able to see clearly what is happening in the game.

Recap of the situation in the game:

Robyn: in the house.
Turin: looking for Therlion and Roland.
Roland: in a shop, waiting for Sythe to post.
Terias and Kirun: in a room waiting for them to decide what to do.
Therlion: speaking to Kalam, waiting for Bozos to post.

So could Therlion, Terias, Kirun and Roland make their moves?

To everyone in this role play.

As a favor to dplax, I accepted his invitation to manage his affairs in his absence, but only he can really run this game the way it should be run. I will try to keep everyone happy in the meantime.

I need some time for rereading and planning before I can just take over, so please allow me some leaway, while I gather my thoughts.

Anyone dropping out on my watch will be assassinated thrice.

And then burned at the stake, and hanged and then electrocuted. IF you've really been bad you'll be shot later, when we find the time.

Sorry for making everybody wait around on me these days. I am having some troubles and am trying to take care of things that need fixing, with money that I don't have. I have enough busy work to keep my head out of creative thought for a few more days. Then I will be able to think clearly.

Hang in there y'all.

Roland: I have set you up to tell your story to Turin and Robyn. Post when you can.

can I still join?

<font color=skyblue>dplax is the owner of this game,
and I am just tending it for him while he is on vacation in France.

He has the ability to add or drop people from his game.
</font>

Sure. Just pm me with character info (or post the character here) and when probably next saturday I am going to be on the net I could introduce you into the game.

I'm finally back! I probably will need some time to read through all the posts though. Thanks Larry for all your help.

here's my info:

--------------------------------------------------
Name:Keal Shamhunter
Race:Elf
Age:26
Class:Ranger
Description:Shorter Blonde Hair, shoulder armor, iron boots and gauntlents black cloak.
Keal is very skilled with the bow, but is deadly with the sword. Keal had grown up in the realm of Lord Fingolfin and there learnt the skill of the bow. At the age of 8 he was sent to one of Fingolfin's allies as a part of his father's entourage. There he became an adept of the sword. At the age of 18 he left his father's household and hunted down criminals.

Leaving a chance for Keal to post.

BTW does anyone know what has happened to Sythe and The Fallen One?

[ 08-24-2004, 02:57 PM: Message edited by: dplax ]

Or Cienden for that matter. Haven't seen any of them at the forums.

Maybe they are on holiday. I think I'll pm them.

Does anyone know anything about why Cienden isn't posting?
Also changed the topics title.

Sorry, i didn't see him/her until I got here

Just to clear up a few points about my post for Keal and Therlion. Therlion now has to choose two of the men in the group and go scout with them. BoB you can just make up two group members, or choose the one you already know. Keal is being taken into Kalam's tent, you could just make a post of already being in there. You can there speak with Kalam in private, although you're hands are still tied.

It is about time to kill Lord Easthome. Sythe...we need to figure a way to do so soon!

Lol! Rofl! Roflmao! Out of the blue, just bang!
Lol.

I am a 10,000aire!

Thanks for the heads-up Bozos of Bones!

Congratulations on the 10,000th post Larry.

Time to speed things up a bit. The battle has begun.... *evilgrin*
