I'm still anxiously awaiting the primary and secondary skills of the remainding party members, so far Ashjam and Peregrine are the only ones i have skills for. To do this simply make a test character in the game and PM me the numbers, this'll be the only thing besides posting for the RP that I need from you.

Alright, here's a lost of whose submitted their skills (calculated):

Peregrine

Ashjam

Oddguy

Sol'Kanar

The_Reaper

 

I think that's everyone except Matthias and wesatnothing who hopefully are sending them to me right now.

 

The calculation I wrote will be final, it works much to my delight, quite well and will keep people on their toes for just about anything that requires a skill check. For those who might be not completely sure what they are applies towards I'll give some examples of some actions that would warrant me needing to make a roll.

 

Any Combative Act

Sneaking

Climbing

Jumping

Rope Throwing

Drinking (Willpower check to see how long and to what degree the effects last)

Lockpicking

and just about anything else that isn't walking or talking *bartering is excluded for hassling sake, you just buy something and be done unless you wanna try and bargain.

 

Just use some common sense though, if you are doing an act that in morrowind would make you utilize one of your skills then that warrants a skill check. Remeber in your posts only to describe the action you are attempting to do and then STOP THE POST. I'm rather quick about responding so when I read it I'll calculate the skill check and send you a PM saying whether or not you failed or succeeded. To keep the thread from being overwhelmed with small snippits of my character didn't or did's use the following format when posting after the skill check.

 

Shadow walks brazenly into the shadows of the town, noticing no guard or patrol he dashes over to nearest tavern. Unhooking his grappling hook from his side he launches it onto the roof, pulling hard to make sure it's secure and begins to climb.

(at this point he would stop the post and wait for me to respond to his climbing attempt [athletic skill]. Once he has gotten a response from me he may proceed with the post, please edit the post instead of making a new one and put ** around the action, indicating that this is a result of a skill check. Once the skill check has resolved close the description with ** and continue the post until either you finish or need to make another check.)

 

**Shadow quickly climbs up the rope and settles himself (and his nerves) on the roof.**

 

Pulling up the rope and hooking it again onto his side he slinks over to the roof and peers in.

 

Realizing that he hasn't eaten for a while Shadow takes out a piece of bread from a satchel at his side and starts to gourge it down. (there would probably be more but this is just an example).

 

Again, this will be the norm for the thread, and I expect everyone to follow this format. Not to be a pain but if you can't or don't adhere to these guidlines I'm giving each person 3 chances. If you fail to follow the format 3 times than you're out. (granted honest mistakes are feasible, i'll simply alert you to them and I'm not expecting everyone to have my same interpretation of what constitutes a skill check, in which case I'll alert you to it, but if similiar skill check related offenses are committed than that simply means non-adherance to the rules)

 

This is the first time I've really tried anything like this, and the rules are debatable, give me feedback, tell me if you think i'm being too harsh or that this seems like it will make for a more structured RP environment that will be enjoyable. Don't think too much about the rules, the point is to have fun but also realize that I'm going for a desired effect and I want some things in place so I can get that effect.

 

It looks like this is going to be the group for now, I don't think any others will join, we're still starting on monday though, by my estimates the post will start at about 9 pm EST upwards ( I have a huge experimental psych lab due by dinner).

 

On another note the possibilities of addons to the game are out, nobody can join once we've gotten started so if anyone is still considering make a descision by tomorrow evening (10 pm EST, the deadline).

 

Alright kids, this'll be fun, today I'm working on NPC development and an outline of events.

OK, first thing; someone hit my (actually, my girlfriends) car, and didnt stop... and we are still talking/writing to the insurace compagnie about this. Hopefully we'll get some money to do repairs, paying everything ourselves really sucks :( .

 

Therefore: Ill be on the net from... now, but I dont know for how long; if something needs to be done about this accident (Im talking about the car right now) Ill leave. Sorry for that, but life once more throws a spanner in the eh... wheels or something.

 

So... lets start :lol: . Ill wait for Thanateros to give the startsign. And I think THIS thread can now be closed...

I'll probably be posting sometime late tonight or tomorrow morning at around 9 am EST. I'm still working on everything and school work really beat me up today. I had to finish two labs and start another, for the same class. I have to read a huge chunk of paradise lost this evening as well and prepare to lead a class discussion on epic similies.

 

Needless to say the RP isn't at the forefront of my mind, but you will get it promised by the end of tomorrow (or at least a small introduction etc etc, maybe something with more bulk later). Also just to let you know most of the investigating will be left up to you. at the start of the game the only thing you know is that the slave trade has been hit hard, and the telvanni are really pissed at House Hlaalu for failing to deliver.
