phawk69 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Most humble appologies Malchik. You know how old friends are when they get together, giddy to see each other, telling tales of daring, and daring tales. Sorry for usurping your thread, and making you read a bunch of stuff that has nothing to do with the topic at hand, namely Zooz, and people wanting to play that line. Also appologies to anyone who read through our off topic line, sorry for wasting your time. Won't happen again :blush: :blush: o_O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonDudeAW Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Just so you know not to delete the Oblivion competition just yet, Malchik, I'm working on making a PDF transcript of the Burning Tower group's specific adventure. After it's finished i'll email it to anyone who wants one. If you want a copy, PM your email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 Okay we have too many for one group so I will have a different but related story also set in Bashkher for the rest of you concerning investigation of glowing statues. Group B will be those in the US time zone of who are happy posting there. If you want to be with members of your old team outside your time zone that's fine but your posting will obviously be a bit out of sync. (European evening and US day time overlap to some extent but in the US evening/night all Europeans except vampires tend to be asleep). In the European team (Group A) I know there is Theta, Karkarinus, Arturius and Baba-John. Any other Europeans or groupies? Group B is t'skar, werewolf and titanania AFAIK who else is in that time zone or wants to be there. (If any of you guys wants to be with group A please advise) I will start on Thursday evening UK time. Can I have a simple one liner from anyone not yet allocated or who wants to change from the above) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phawk69 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 T'skar would like to be in group A, I will try to fit with their schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baba-John Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I am getting very confused here. You want to role play your own thread please feel free. You want to be in mine you have to wait until I'm ready to start and that depends upon my real life schedule. And that wont be before Thursday. I'll take the first 16 but I'm not even starting to look until tomorrow. You want blood - mine is cold! Sorry Sir,We were waiting for new info from you,.................................................well we got bored, so we started drinking,..............................................you know the rest. Sorry :( Link to The Drunken Alit for general chat around The Master of Zooz :rolleyes: http://www.chatzy.com/266829052470 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 If anyone is a good map maker I have a rough drawing of Papred I use when plotting the story line which could be seriously improved on. I can scan it in and email or fax it if someone thinks they could make it into a work of art. Please PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 The description below is of the city of Flen, the capital of Levdia taken from when the questers in my book Zekic (18), Rozia (19) and Sammi (10) arrive. Papred, which is where the RPG story will begin, is hotter and dustier but has the same kind of crowded chaos. I am currently preparing the opening post for Thursday. The opening scenes will be in Papred and you will be trying to get the information to start your teams off from a variety of sources. If you split up I will PM the info to the individuals concerned and let them put it in the thread as they think fit. At the beginning things will move slowly if all decisions are debated in the thread so I suggest you have the same OT threads as were used in the recent comp. Agree a consensus figure and agree to be bound by it. Religion is very important in Bashkher but there are hundreds of gods and temples to them. All religions are in harmony as there is no dominant belief. I will note the religious beliefs of the dimensions after the description of Flen. Flen came as a shock. It was vast, sprawling and chaotic. Built haphazardly over the years, no thought had been given to street patterns or logical location. The flourmills were on the other side of the city from the grain silos and both well away from the wharves where the grain was unloaded; the sawmills were nowhere near the wood yards; the healers a long walk from the hospitals. Indeed, if anyone had set out to design a city that could not function, they'd never have come up with anything as insane as Flen. It was an old city, of narrow streets and rickety buildings and permanently jammed with traffic - wheeled carts, animals, pedestrians, horse-drawn chaises and fast inter-city coaches. It was as if nothing were meant to arrive. Sammi gaped at the size and noise of it all. Rozia complained about the dirt. Zekic wanted to know how anyone could possibly remember where they were. A herd of cows bound for the local market was mixed up with a flock of sheep on their way to be shorn. A party of children on a school outing was trying to cross under the guidance of a frazzled teacher. Several men in overalls were digging a hole in the road. If these were the outskirts, what would it be like in the centre? A cow, frightened by the sheep dogs, dropped a wet cow pat right at their feet, splashing their clothes. "Can't you cast a spell?" Rozia grumbled. "We'll smell like a horse's arse by the time we get there." "I'm not going to take the book out in the middle of this rabble. A cow would bite a chunk out of it." A sheepdog, presumably mistaking Sammi for an oddly shaped ovine, crouched down and barked at him, making him jump. He told the dog to go elsewhere in words Zekic felt boys of his age shouldn't know. Several times Rozia tried asking passers by for the archives, to be met with blank stares or a vague 'centre's that way' and a hand flapped in no particular direction. The teacher, having finally got her children across, turned them into a street from which a marching band emerged. As the band approached, the drummer gave two loud whacks on the bass drum, causing the sheep to run into the cows again. A dustcart was visible beyond the cows. A coach containing the shift change for the city guard was stuck among the sheep. A group of visitors on a guided tour of outer Flen were attempting to cross where the children had done. The tourists squawked. The band blared. The dogs barked. The cows freaked. Religions in Bashkher Dayone - None, no afterlife, bodies are cremated and used as fertiliserNiyobi - People go to the temples because it is suspicious not to, not necessarily because they believe and there are probably more gods than people, corpses are buriedJourtres - erm, not the right psychology but some cults; in the past they worshipped 'King Water', corpses are left for the birds and rats to feed onTagfier - none, the wizards and Wanderers know everyone ends up in the world of the dead regardless of what they believe, corpses generally buriedLevdia - none, no one thinks about it, a few cults, corpses crematedAngyngrax - none except in the city of Letzthammar where they worship 'Flame carriers'Shallara - none, they don't care about the unavoidable, corpses simply vanishUrital - everyone belongs to one of the many cults, they are not really religions as such, corpses cremated on funeral pyresBashkher - Some believe in a god or gods or at least something, others don't, corpses are always cremated usually on funeral pyres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baba-John Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 :closedeyes: After sitting for a while, sucking on his pipe and blowing acrid smoke rings into the air, Baba opens his eyes and looks at the individuals sitting around him. They are quite a bit younger than he is, but that’s no problem, he thinks to himself. What they have in energy, I have in experience and tenacity. After what seemed like an age he started talking, as much to himself, as to his audience. Some of you might have heard of me, some not. My suggestion is that you believe the worst of what you’ve heard and then add some. I’m not one to dwell on the past, so please feel free to keep any questions you have about me to yourself. I will tell you what you need to know about me when you need to know. I’m too old to have to worry about my reputation and too young to start writing my autobiography. For now let’s just accept that I’ve been around a while.Now how about some food? Is that weed rat stew I smell in that pot, or is one of you washing his/her underwear? Don’t just sit there, introduce yourselves. Or should I try?1. You over there, the Tagfieran female, middle twenties, I assume you’re T’Skar, Thief/ Alchemist 2. And you, the Bashkerian Witch, with the snow owl, are Ara Lothea a Light Fighter/Wizard3. Next we have Tiax Anderson, who’s not sure where he belongs, Comes from Tagfieran and likes doing the time warp. 4. Ah ha, close your pockets everyone, Mandrake Kaides is in the house. Originally a Tagfieran wanderer, turned thief.5. Kalmer Naowen, didn’t think I’d see you here. Where’s your horse Tagfieran? Hunter/Tracker of note.6. Next we have Sael, drunken lout,....................................To Be Added.............................7. I’m Baba Bethram, Bashkerian Shaman/Tracker/Marksman and this is@#%$&$@*# he growls, just call him wolf for short. Let’s just hope we’ve got a lot of stealing to do, otherwise we’re damned, even before we get started. You know what? Let me take that back, fate works in mysterious ways. We’re all here for a reason so I say let the game begin. :rolleyes: Link to The Drunken Alit for general chat around The Master of Zooz :rolleyes: Group A - http://www.chatzy.com/266829052470 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
