A New Power

[MDRud216]

basically, Quarian has established his alliance and they have hired mercanaries and/or brought peasants to their side. IT was the night before their planned attack when they found that someone else had beat them to it. I placed various clues and forshadowing to that plot twist that I don't need to mention. Now my character is injured and trapped in the Imperial city as the invaders begin their sweep through the streets. But a defence has arrived and a battle for the city itself is imminent, if not happening.

 

If you want specifics just look around in the thread, I recomend you join as the leader of another Empire, looking to claim the war torn Galoric Empire. But it is up to you.

 

That is what I PMed thanateros, but i posted it for all to see...

[ObsidianKnight]

Believe me, I'm still interested, I just don't want to double post.

[MDRud216]

I don't doubt you Obsidian Knight but Peregrine has all but ceased posting and I feel that I should not half to supply every other post to keep the RPG moving. After All, we have many members that signed up, it's just that many quit posting early on. We could put the RPG on pause until more people join? All (out of the 3-4 of us) plz vote.

*points to "I'll be back in a few days with help" post*

 

I haven't posted because my character is off doing other things right now. I can't just use divine intervention and turn "It'll be days or weeks before I can get reinforcements" into an hour or two.

[MDRud216]

srry peregrine, I guess I assumed you would post what your char was doing in another area, no problem though...

[ObsidianKnight]

If you want to suspend the rpg after this whole siege thing is over and wait for a couple more people to join, that's fine. Or if another player that just joined decides to charge in with a band of mercenaries and help, that's also fine. But don't suspend it until this siege is done with.

[MDRud216]

alright it is settled, we will finish the seige and then "pause the RPG until more people join, also I have a few changes i would like to add to the rules...

Hey, here's my character

 

Name: Togan

 

Sex: Male

 

Age: 20

 

Previous Ocupation: None really, unless you count sneaking around alleys, serving food to people in a tavern, and becoming a scoundrel and low-life theif as a profession.

 

Background: Togan's parents were killed by Imperial bastards when he was young. After they refused let the soldiers search their home. Togan was found underneath a loose floorboard that led under the house. He was only a baby when he was found, the soldiers took him back to The Emporer and asked what to do with him. He ordered them to sell him to the highest bidder as a slave. A owner of a Inn called The Slithering Snake bought Togan and raised him as if he was his very own son. As Togan grew he herd the stories of adventurers coming in and out of the Inn. He longed to venture out and become an adventurer too. His foster-father was killed my a group of thugs that wouldnt pay for their meals. When his foster father was killed togan was about 13, he became a scum of the streets, pick-pocketing and smuggling goods for his or others use. Togan was known by nearly all underworld criminals. Togan decided to revenge his parent's deaths and join the mercenaries to fight the Emporer and his pwerful army.

 

Weapon: Togan carries a small knife hidden in his boot (just in case) :shifty:

Dude, count me in... This is what I do day in and day out in RL...

 

Here's my shot at a char, if he's too much like others then I can just scrap him and remake, but tell me cause I didn't read ALL the pages on the thread...

 

Name: Thrin

Sex: Male

Age: 26

 

Previous Profession: Shipping agent (Smuggler cover profession); deals with the transportation of goods (legal and illegal).

 

History:  His parents lived to a divine old age before their untimely deaths in Thrin's home town. Everyone dies sooner or later. Before that unfortunate event though, his life had been fairly simple.

 

After their their deaths, when he was about 20, he took up a shipping and transportation job in a port city on the coast. Fairly soon, he got mixed up in some illegal smuggling and such, and ended up making more money that way then with his regular job. However, the oppression provided by the living conditions of the goverment began to push him over the edge, defining a sort of revolutionary attitude toward the whole thing.

 

Now, he is proposing such a revolt to the people, attempting to drive them to the overthrow of the local goverment, and eventually, the Empire itself. Before he can make his stand, he has to gather his troops.. claiming to a trusted freind, "we would not strike the iron of men before it was white hot with vengence."

 

General Appearance and Misc. Details: He wears the clothes of a peasent and a wanderer now, torn and ragged. His sandles are worn to the soles from endless walking. He does not stand as a large man, rather he is of good height and medium build, perhaps more agile then a larger foe, though it has not been tested.

 

His face is welcoming, though his expressions usually are not (loosing valued family members will do that to you). Recently he has been working on a small beard. Though not of length, it makes him appear slightly older then he actually is. Perhaps his most defining feature, though, is his eyes. They hold a timeless anger, though barricaded and hidden elsewhere, his fear, anger, pain, and long-suffering are clearly visible thourgh the pools of endless emotion shrouded by the brown of his hair and eybrows. In a look, those eyes can both make you think twice about the man and who he really is, and make you feel as if he can see the deapths of your soul as clearly as you see his.

 

He handles a blade well, and he has trained with most types for at least a short amount of time, favoring some over others. Pikes, spears, and bows (/other missile weapons) don't hold as much appeal to him as a good axe or sword. Though he owns few (none for the sake of the game) he has dealt with many in his dealings.

 

In his war doctrine, he favors guerilla (sp?) warfare instead of full on rank and file soldiers. Such can be derived from his smuggling days, as it often occurs that a small group of men has to sneak goods into someplace. Every man must be efficient and adept at what he does. So it is that he can accomplish more in the same way during a war. "A knife in the dark is worth a thousand swords at dawn," is commonly mentioned when discussing the subject.

 

In his business dealings, he has a good relative grasp on how the economy works, and how people value things. He can usually get a good deal when working on smuggling and legal transport operations alike.

 

Thats about all I have to say.... Hope its not too much of a mouthfull.... Let me know when I can start up!!

Ive been watching, I didnt see Kataiyo die so...did he? if not, I guess ill post some more...maybe in my own thread, dunno yet, but need a squad if I do. Hmm...maybe a good idea to get all these new stealthy characters, theyre good at doing recon work and can spread the underground revolution with me(wink wink, nudge nudge, say no more)
