GM Will 08-12-03, 11:55 PM	The following thread is a way of continuing a three year old D&D Campaign. Life has made tabletop impossible, but no one really felt like parting with their characters. There will be no dice or stats or anything. This will be done ISRP style. The characters have, over time, reached a pretty high power level. This does not mean you cannot join. Just throw your character into the mix. No one will mind. :) The setting is *****, my homebrew world. I won't go into much detail on it here, but much of its attributes will come out in the thread. If you do need a question about the setting answered, send it to me via email or private messanger (check my profile). i will say here that its a bit, well, different. As DM/GM I'll set the scene and control the NPCs. Any screenames you see that aren't listed as a player are probably my NPCs (or someone who just dropped in) The current players are: Riacel Neloc Yanen (WraithofHousetoHouse) Tharivious Meliamne chi master Fong/Lee Chan (New!) Kami no Kenshin (New!) K, lets see if we can get a "check in" before I start.
Tharivious_Meliamne 08-13-03, 01:36 AM	(( Alright, consider this me checking in. I'll be posting as Tharivious was 7 months ago, still in the campaign setting, just before he arrived in the ISRP. As a way of taking some NPC weight off of Will's shoulders, I will also be posting as another name, who I will check in with shortly. ))
Igyvasfaxavaj 08-13-03, 01:44 AM	(( As promised, Thar's player checking in with the NPC. This is Igyvasfaxavaj. {Pronounced: Ih - JEE - vahs - fahks - ah - vahj , believe me, there have been problems with that in the past.} At the present, he is a green dragon, not his normal shadow dragon form that he has now, I'm sure more on that will be done in the thread. )) (( Edit: I forgot to mention that Igy usually travels in his drow form, which is how he appears unless stated otherwise. ))
chi master Fong 08-13-03, 01:55 AM	(( this will be me.. yes))
GM Will 08-13-03, 01:55 AM	Note: I'm not going to bother with the (())s with this name. Anything that's not in italics or quotation marks is OOC. Ok Mel, if I remember right, you and Igy had just left Avlus's plane and returned underground. The teleportation spell left you in a small town near the drow capital. You had been told that the others who had been in your group would probably already arrived at the capital. You've been set on a dingy streetcorner outside of what looks like a small marketplace. Merchants, mostly drow with a few dwarves here and there, are setting up their booths for the morning. No one seems to notice you or Igy, as you fit in well enough with the surroundings.
GM Will 08-13-03, 01:57 AM	Fong> Welcome. :) Do you want to be with Riacel, Tharivious, Yanen, or on your own? (The characters are split up at the momment)
chi master Fong 08-13-03, 02:47 AM	(( i supose he would be on his own in his temple in Wracods. training students and hoping they can find a way to get enough money to keep it open and their people fed. ))
GM Will 08-13-03, 02:52 AM	Chi: Its morning and you're busy doing whatever you do to train the recruits. One of your men approaches you. He bows. "Master, there's a man in military attire at the door. He wishes to speak to you."
chi master Fong 08-13-03, 03:28 AM	fong calls forth the top student to continue the training "oh no.. what now.." he goes to see what this is about
Tharivious_Meliamne 08-13-03, 03:37 AM	(( Yep, that's where we were. )) Meliamne, the elven shade looks out in front of him, surveying the marketplace. He turns toward the nearest vendor and speaks in the most calm voice he can manage. "Could you direct me to the city of (as of yet un-named drow capitol :P) my friend?" (( Edit: Forgot what name he was going by, been a while :P ))
Major Lunter 08-13-03, 03:39 AM	The major stands in the doorway, He salutes Fung when he enters and holds out an evelope bearing the national seal. He smiles pleasently. "Good news, you've been drafted."
chi master Fong 08-13-03, 03:42 AM	fongs jaw just drops as he accepts the note. .oO(oh... well not as bad as it.. well maybe) " this must be wrong.. i need to take care of the temple.. and isnt their some age limit.." opens it and reads
GM Will 08-13-03, 03:44 AM	The merchant pauses, sets the supplies he was unpacking on his booth and turns to Tharivious. He points to the west. "Out of town... Probably a twenty hours walk that way. Less if you have a ride." The merchant turns, walks back to his booth and begins unpacking.
Major Lunter 08-13-03, 03:51 AM	Major Lunter gives Fong another pleasent smile. "No mistake at all. You and all of your men are in government employee now. There's a war coming up, you know. What good would the government be to our people if we didn't use every available resource to protect them? To keep them safe from harm. Of course, that will probably mean all of your deaths, but that's the kind of thing that you have to deal with when you join the military." ((Lunter's note confirms this.))
Tharivious_Meliamne 08-13-03, 03:54 AM	Meliamne smirks as he nods. "Thank you, I'll be on my way then." He turns and motions Igy to follow as he begins to leave the town, heading for the drow capitol.
chi master Fong 08-13-03, 03:57 AM	fong sighs "wait... what! my students are drafted too.. oh very well.. i wouldnt want to get in trouble or anything. were just a simple temple of monks, and if the people need us then so be it" .oO( why did i let Zhang convince me into seting up here..)
GM Will 08-13-03, 04:04 AM	As Tharivious movoes towards the edge of town he catches sight of what looks like a picture of himself out of the corner of his eye. It turns out to be a poster, with the following written in drow, dwarven, and the illithid langauge: "Fugitive: Meliamne Five Hundred Gold Reward for Information Leading to Capture." Below it is a name of a local contact to which information can be sent. The merchant furrows his brow for a momment and turns back towards Tharivious from his booth. "I'm sorry sir... Could I speak with you for a momment..." The merchant begins to approach Tharivious.
Tharivious_Meliamne 08-13-03, 04:07 AM	Meliamne smirks as he pauses, his hand moving surrepticiously to his sword hilt beneath his cloak and he glances over his shoulder at the merchant. "Certainly. What seems to be the problem?"
Major Lunter 08-13-03, 04:10 AM	Major Lunter laughs and claps Fong on the back. "Good sport! You have no idea how some of these draftees act. Its nice to see a man with a real sense of national pride. Now, pick one of your men to accompany me and we're off to see Prime Minister Wracod. We'll be briefed there." Lunter turns and walks outside to a government carriage. He steps inside and orders the driver to wait.
Igyvasfaxavaj 08-13-03, 04:11 AM	Igy pauses as he hears the merchant adressing Meliamne and keeps his ears open.
chi master Fong 08-13-03, 04:14 AM	"yes im sure.. some of them must even attac or something.. heh heh. " at that time Fong thinks about attacking. he goes inside and tells the student of what has happend. he takes the second best student and leave the top to continue. he and the student (Lee Chan) go to the major and i assume into the carriage
GM Will 08-13-03, 04:15 AM	The merchant pauses a few feet from Tharivious and examines him carefully. He shakes his head, smiling slightly. "Oh nothing... I think I was confused... That's all..." The merchant turns and begins to walk away.
Tharivious_Meliamne 08-13-03, 04:21 AM	Meliamne raises an eyebrow as a quick thought moves through his mind. . o O ( ~protected from divinations by outside sources~ The merchant suspects something. Can't have that.... ) He gives a quick nod to Igy, one practiced over the time of their alliance. He goes about his business normally for a moment until he sees that the merchant is once more within his shop. He creeps up as silently as he can behind him and pulls his sword from the sheath, aiming a vicious slice for the shopkeeper's kidneys in the same motion while Igy moves to block the view of any others.
Lee Chan 08-13-03, 04:21 AM	Lee follows his master somewhat reluctantly. he is however suprized he will see Wracod
Major Lunter 08-13-03, 04:26 AM	Lunter smiles again as Fong and Lee board the carriage and orders his driver to depart. As the carriage makes its way towards the capital he turns to Lee. "Well now kid, how does it feel to be in the military? To have hope of becoming a real man. Maybe even kill someone. No more breaking boards with your head or whatever the old guy had you doing to 'train your mind' or whatever nonsense."
Igyvasfaxavaj 08-13-03, 04:28 AM	Igy nods in return, taking up his position as a screen to block view of what Meliamne is up to from the public at large. He makes sure that his screening is discreet, as it should be.
GM Will 08-13-03, 04:32 AM	The merchant takes the stab in the kidney, letting out a painful yelp in the prcoess. He tumbles to the ground and begins to spasm. His yelp has draw the attention of several other nearby merchants and people begin to turn in the direction of the crime.
Lee Chan 08-13-03, 04:39 AM	nods to the major "sure.. it will be.. an honor.." .oO(more like horror)
Major Lunter 08-13-03, 04:45 AM	The Major smiles and claps his hands together. "That's the attitude! You're a great patriot, you know that? A couple of broken knecks and you'll be a bonafide hero!" The major stretches and reclines agaist the side of the carriage as he waits for them to reach Wracod's home.
Tharivious_Meliamne 08-13-03, 04:47 AM	Meliamne smirks as he senses the attention being drawn. He mutters an incantation, a few arcane words as he snatches for the "wanted poster" to tuck it under his cloak, (( casting Invisibility )) and vanishes from view. He then moves to creep off, moving as quietly as he can.
GM Will 08-13-03, 04:51 AM	Several of the merchants rush over to the fallen man and begin to try to revive him. Others spot Igy and begin approaching him cautiously. One man steps up to Igy, giving him a nervous glance. "Hey! You were right there... Did you see what happened?" Another man sneaks over to the fallen merchant's booth and begins slipping items from it into his pockets during the chaos. Tharivious was apparently unseen as he cast invisibility and slipped away.
Igyvasfaxavaj 08-13-03, 05:05 AM	Igy looks at the man near him and taps his ear lightly as he frowns a bit. "Pardon me, you'll have to speak up. I have a hard time hearing certain things like voices. I can't really hear you very well." He looks around and shakes his head slightly. "I'm afraid I must be going. Pressing business." He begins to walk away.
Tharivious_Meliamne 08-13-03, 06:48 AM	Meliamne moves off to the alleyways as he heads for the edges of town, keeping to the unused paths.
Lee Chan 08-13-03, 08:16 AM	"So.. we are going to see Mr. Wracod himself? anything we should and shouldnt do?"
chi master Fong 08-13-03, 08:23 AM	Fong stays silent with his eyes closed. after the major responds to Lee he asks "What will you people do for my temple. without me thier they have no one to guid them. we have enough problems as is without those who back us and do their best to keep us functioning withdrawing. It is also not in your interests since what money we get we give to you save what we need to survive."
Kami no Kenshin 08-13-03, 03:34 PM	((You said I could just drop my character in right? If not, just let me know if you don't want me around, I'll delete my post.)) The young Samurai had been walking up the drive toward the monastary when he saw the military man lead the two monks away. He crouched in the bushes.....watching the carriage roll past and reemerged when it is out of view. .oOI wonder what that was all about?Oo. He scans the area about him cautiously for a moment before continuing up the road
GM Will 08-13-03, 05:35 PM	Welcome Kami no Kenshin. :) Yes, you can just drop your character in like you did. I'll ad you to the player list and address your character's actions once I handle Fong & Lee's posts.
Major Lunter 08-13-03, 05:48 PM	Major Lunter gives Lee a cheerful laugh. "Oh yes, don't forget who he is. Manners, manners, manners. Plenty of 'sirs'. Get the idea?" Major Lunter turns to Fong, still smiling. "Oh, don't worry about that. All of your men were drafted, remember? When war breaks out they'll be plopped down on the front lines or something of the sort. They'll be heroes. Maybe even get a nice big memorial in front of the temple or something. Doesn't that just sound grand?"
GM Will 08-13-03, 05:53 PM	Kami: You manage to follow the carriage and notice the national seal on the side and a man in a private's uniform serving as the driver. However, they seem to be in a hurry and you begin to lose them. You'll need faster transportation if you wish to keep up.
GM Will 08-13-03, 06:02 PM	Tharivious: (Sorry, I forgot about Igy's post.) As Igy leaves a couple of the merchants trail him for a few feet, but, after looking at the fallen man, make no attempt to intercept him. Eventually they lose track of him as the early morning rush begins in the marketplace. However, he becomes seperated from Tharivious in the process. Meanwhile, as Tharivious slinks along the back roads he catches site of two drow men. One, who appears to a member of the gaurd, is answering questions from the other, who looks terribly familar. He's small and somewhat iffeminate looking and is wearing a belt strung with several small muasical instruments. There's a crude guitar slung over his back. (He is, of course, the drow bard that was in your group) You're currently too far away to hear what they're discussing.
Tharivious_Meliamne 08-13-03, 09:13 PM	Meliamne moves along, still well within the duration of his Invisibility spell. He takes his time to make sure that he's as quiet as possible, keeping away from loose stones on the ground and anything that might fall over. He moves into place near the bard anf guard, ducking into the nearest side alley for some added concealment. He tries to listen in on the conversation with his keen ears.
WraithOfHouseToHouse 08-13-03, 10:25 PM	((This is Yanen's player checking in, ready for action :behold: ))
Top student Chen 08-14-03, 12:32 AM	the top student was watching from a window, concerned for his master. he noticed the young samurai and observed his actions with cureosity. he walked to the door and opened it looking to him.
Kami no Kenshin 08-14-03, 02:30 PM	((Actually, I'm not following the carriage, I was walking toward the monastary....)) Brushes pieces of shrubbery out of his clothing and glances at the the one looking through the door at him. "Greetings."
GM Will 08-14-03, 09:51 PM	Sorry everyone. I was gone last night celebrating my sister's birthday with family. Then just as I was about to go on this afternoon the blackout hit. :( Anyway: Wraith: If I remember correctly Yanen and Ratalgy were just about to head back to *****, right? You can start from your arrival (where ever you choice to end up.)
Top student Chen 08-14-03, 09:59 PM	the top student bows slightly, forgeting that for the moment he is master. "hello sir. how may our simple monastary aid you?"
WraithOfHouseToHouse 08-14-03, 10:12 PM	Yanen looks over his shoulder at Ratalgy as they planeshift onto the woodland area a wee bit oujtside of Riacel Nelloc's happy grove with burning, defoliation-agent-spraying machete's in hand. Yanen grins. "Dancing faeries of love and contentment make sweet music to my eardrums....it sounds like...mass slaughter of wildlife." He begins to walk slowly forward towards Riacel's grove, plainly visible
GM Will 08-14-03, 10:21 PM	Fong: You arrive at PM Wracod's residence, a large, modern-looking mansion with more soldier posted at the gate. The soldiers open the gate and usher Fong, Lee, and Lunter inside. You are lead inside and up two flights of stairs to a set of wodeen double doors. The one of your guides tells you to wait were you are and steps into the room. You get a quick glance at what looks like a large office as he enters.
Ratalgy 08-14-03, 10:26 PM	Ratalgy flips his dagger into his hand and smiles to Yanen. "Yea!SoWereGonnaGetToBeAll..." Ratalgy makes three rapid stabbing motions. "AndStuff!" Ratagly zips towards the grove.
Lee Chan 08-14-03, 10:27 PM	waits and speaks with his master. "what will become of us master?"
chi master Fong 08-14-03, 10:30 PM	Fong waits "if the army has its way.. we will likely die"
WraithOfHouseToHouse 08-14-03, 10:40 PM	Yanen finds a pure white wild horse roaming about in the wilderness as he heads towards the grove and commandeers it. He then begins to scrounge for materials to make skeleton soldiers...the first of which a skeleton tailor, whom he orders (as soon as it's produced) to make him a white robe and white wide-brimmed hat. He starts building skeletal horses (shaped as best as he can) with the bones of several small animals that he slays by pulsing the tree canopy with a wave of negative energy. He looks to Ratalgy from his horse as he rides off deeper into the woods to find more raw materials. "Your name is Eomer now. See you in a couple hours..."
Major Lunter 08-14-03, 10:44 PM	The major laughs and smiles at Fong. "Come now, the army doesn't want to see anyone die. That's not to say you won't, but we don't want to see it." He stands and salutes the soldier as he leaves the room before going over to him and speaking whith him for a few momments. He turns and returns to Lee and Fong, smiling. "They're ready for us."
chi master Fong 08-14-03, 10:49 PM	Fong and lee enter the room with fong saying to lunter "you have proven my point"
Ratalgy 08-14-03, 10:50 PM	Ratalgy give Yanen a quick, knowing nod. "YesSireRightAwayAndStuff! I'llBeNeedingACostumeAndAllRight?" Ratalgy zips into the woods without waiting for an answer. Animals and elves can be heard screaming in pain a momment later.
GM Will 08-14-03, 11:03 PM	Tharivious: I can't seem to get that NPC's account yet, so I'll have to post for him using this name. The bard sighs and turns to leave as Tharivious approaches. "So you're sure you haven'e seen anything? Ok..." The bard hangs his head and begins to sulk away from the man, kicking at stone on the ground.
GM Will 08-14-03, 11:13 PM	Fong: There are four individuals in the office as you enter. A heavyweight bearded man in his fifties is seated behind a large oak desk in the rear with a cigar pressed between his lips. Seated in a chair to his left is a small young man in grey robes who appears to be in his mid-twenties. In a similar chair to the right of the desk is a well built man who looks to be in his forties. Sprawled on the floor is a giant crocodile wearing a top hat and monocle. The soldiers turn and leave the room once your inside, locking the door behind you.
Tharivious_Meliamne 08-14-03, 11:15 PM	Meliamne follows after the bard, making sure to keep within earshot but avoiding making any noise, hoping to figure out what that conversation was about.
WraithOfHouseToHouse 08-14-03, 11:16 PM	Yanen heads through the woods, killing anything that looks like it has a skeleton. He stops in a small forest village that is convieniently populated with a few families of the sick and dying, and several young clerics caring for them. Ruth, Young Cleric- "My god, its like they're dying so fast...*sob*..we're healers...not miracle workers.." Madran, Young Cleric- "Yeah i know...there's barely even time to complete the grieving process from the previous deaths and more are dying.." Edwardo, Stoic Cleric in his early 30's- "Yes, its terrible..but there's little we can do. We have to oversee the burials of the dead such that we can ensure disease doesn't spread more. We may have the powers of healing, but our first defense is always common sense..." Ruth, Young Cleric-"*sob* Life is so precious." A few minutes later, Yanen gallops hastily through the camp, slowing only briefly to chant spell incantations...just as the laborers have finished filling the latest graves. A ripple shoots through the ground surrounding the camp and the freshly buried corpses are pushed out of their graves as the clerics look on in moral terror. Some of the bodies begin to move about in all directions, attacking the fleeing workers and those village residents still alive. Suddenly, drops of green-tinted rain pellets begin to fall into the camp as they burn holes in the leaves of the tree canopy. Acid. Caught off guard without shelter, the clerics and remaining laborers burn and blister as they dash about. The structural pillar holding up the makeshift hospital corrodes and gives way, sending its roof downward onto the patients who were bedridden and unable to flee. As the groans of the wounded rise up, Yanen's horse circles back and he once again enters the camp and dismounts. One of the clerics still lives and he steps over towards her and looks down with a smile. She stammers out a few barely coherent words. Ruth, Young Cleric- "Aa..at...least we saved a few children, though hundreds died. We made a difference..." Yanen shakes his head and looks down, stepping over her as her breath stops. "This'll do. Yep...more than enough, hehe."
chi master Fong 08-14-03, 11:17 PM	Fong bows to each individual "you have requested my presence?"
Nugan Wracod Sr 08-14-03, 11:28 PM	Mr. Wracod sniffs the air and turns to Major Lunter, removing his cigar from his mouth. "This is what you got? I was expecting... Hell, who cares, they're expendable..." Nugan Sr turns to Fong and nods. "Yeah, we did did... Grab a chair. I'm sure I don't have to tell you that I'm the Prime Minister... You run some kick boxing school or something?"
Nugan 08-14-03, 11:35 PM	Nugan smirks and extends his hand to Fong. "Name's Nugan... err... The younger one, that is..."
chi master Fong 08-14-03, 11:35 PM	fong nods and speaks to nugan sr. "yes. i know well who you are. and its a monastary of martial arts. not for long tho if thies taxes keep up." then he looks over the other nugan. "good day.. well not realy.." shakes his hand and sits on the ground
Lee Chan 08-14-03, 11:38 PM	lee stands next to the locked door..
Sir George IX 08-14-03, 11:39 PM	Sir George lowers himself closer to the ground in a bow. "Hello old chap. King George I, formerly Sir George IX at your service."
Gerhane 08-14-03, 11:44 PM	Gerhane raises himself from his chair and bows to Fong and Lee before retaking it. "I'm President Gerhane, I was elected to serve the people of the country to the south of this one. Thanks for volunteering your services."
chi master Fong 08-14-03, 11:46 PM	fong nods to them all "i am honored to be in your pressence... oh.. and i did not volunteer."
Nugan Wracod Sr 08-15-03, 12:07 AM	Nugan Sr nods. "Yes, yes, I'm sure. Now, you probably don't know this, what with living in seclusion in the middle of nowhere, but we are on the verge of another world war. Since the whole Trade fiasco wasn't even two years ago, you can see why we wouldn't want this. Anyway, the ***** World Council's worthlessly deadlocked like it always is. So we've decided to take care of things on our own. We'll lay out the particulars... Assuming you're feeling trustworthy..."
chi master Fong 08-15-03, 12:10 AM	Fong looks to nugan sr. "you act as if i had a choice in the matter"
Lee Chan 08-15-03, 12:12 AM	Lee moves swiftly to his master and speaks quietly "master... he is the prime minister! you shouldnt be rude" he then speaks to the rest "you must excuse him.. he is just worried about the state of things you see.." he bows deep a few times
Gerhane 08-15-03, 12:14 AM	Gerhane raises his eyebrows and turns to Mr. Wracod. "And what would he mean by that? I thought he was a volunteer..."
Nugan 08-15-03, 12:20 AM	Nugan smirks. "I think it means Dad drafted them..."
chi master Fong 08-15-03, 12:20 AM	Fong raises a bushy brow and looks to gerhane "i can assure you i was not. Mr lunter arrived at the monastary with this" he reaches into his robes and with draws the draft note. he tosses it so it lands neatly on his lap. "me and the monks of my temple, most of whome are in thier teens, were all drafted into this army against our will. i understand that if we are to live here we must help, but i had thought that by paying all the taxes, which have taken up all of our money save little to feed us and still need more to pay, we had done our part."
Sir George IX 08-15-03, 12:29 AM	Sir George glances at the paper on Gerhane's lap then turns to Mr. Wracod with a look of concern. "What's this now, old chap?"
Gerhane 08-15-03, 12:34 AM	Gerhane frowns as he reads over the letter. When he finishes he looks up at Mr. Wracod. "You know its not right to force civilians into the military against their will. I'm sure you could have found someone who would have volunteered for the job..."
Nugan Wracod Sr 08-15-03, 12:43 AM	Mr Wracod sighs. "Oh right, just throw up posters everwhere saying we need volunteers to break the Tradefall treaty for us. That's going to help our position in the DWC, isn't it? Come on, this was the only way to do it. Sore its a shame that Sensai Kickboxer here had to be pulled in, but that's the way the world is."
Nugan 08-15-03, 12:45 AM	Nugan smirks at Gerhane. "I think Dad's got you there Sandwich Boy."
GM Will 08-15-03, 12:56 AM	Tharivious: Finally getting back to you. The bard continues to walk down the street, his eyes fixed on the ground most of the time. Whenever he overhears someone nearing he spins towards the person and smiles, only to look down sadly again when he sees who it is. "I shouldn't have let him go alone... Sure he just disappeared, but still... I knew he was angry at me... I should have..."
Gerhane 08-15-03, 01:01 AM	Gerhane furrows his brow for a momment before turning to Fong again. "Sir, is there no way we can make this worth your time? So that you don't feel that you're being forced to help us..."
Tharivious_Meliamne 08-15-03, 01:04 AM	Meliamne continues to trail the bard, keeping his ears on his words as he thinks to himself. . o O ( ~Protected from divinations by an outside prescence~ What in Nine Hells is this bard up to? Not worth letting myself be known yet.... ) He stays back a bit, still keeping track of the bard as he counts off the time on his Invisibility spell.
chi master Fong 08-15-03, 01:09 AM	"well yes. some money to fix up the monastary and feed the students properly. and perhaps you could leave the little ones. i can allow around 14 students of 20. 5 are young and 1 to keep things well."
Gerhane 08-15-03, 03:34 AM	Gerhane nods to Fong, smiling slightly. He then turns to Nugan Sr. "See, now that's not too much to ask, is it?"
Nugan Wracod Sr 08-15-03, 03:38 AM	Nugan Sr sighs. "Ok, ok, you can have all of that. Now that you've wasted so much time, do you feel like helping us out or would you rather find some other point to nitpick to death on?"
chi master Fong 08-15-03, 03:40 AM	fong nods "no. that is all. what will we be doing exactly?"
GM Will 08-15-03, 03:45 AM	Tharivious: You continue to follow the bard. He continues to walk in the same depressed way for several feet until he comes to a building with another of the "wanted" signs on it. He glares at the sign and rips it from the wall, crumpling it and tossing it to the ground. Then he sighs sadly and crushes it with his heel. "Atleast they haven't gotten him yet... I hope..." The bard sighs again and continues his walk.
Tharivious_Meliamne 08-15-03, 03:53 AM	Meliamne smirks. . o O ( ~Protected from divinations by an outside prescence~ That damn bard is annoying, but at least he seems loyal enough. He should be considering the fact that I saved his life. ) He looks around to make sure that there is no one nearby before doing anything other than thinking, making certain that no one who has seen the posters is present.
Igyvasfaxavaj 08-15-03, 03:59 AM	Igy slips out of town in a different direction from where Meliamne was told to go as part of his cover. Once out, he slips around the edges of the area, moving steadily toward the correct direction, his eyes and senses keeping track of every detail around him as best as he can.
Kami no Kenshin 08-15-03, 07:16 AM	He bows to the Monk in the door, I was just wandering around. I saw this place and was curious, that's all.
Top student Chen 08-15-03, 11:19 PM	nods to the man. "but if you dont mind me asking, why did you hide from the military?"
Kami no Kenshin 08-16-03, 01:54 AM	He shrugs as though the answer is obvious, They're the military. I heard that there was some sort of draft going on. I don't want any part of it.
Top student Chen 08-16-03, 05:41 AM	Chen nods " i wish it were that easy for my master. if you like, you may come in and have some tea." Chen smiles
Kami no Kenshin 08-16-03, 02:03 PM	He inclines his head..... Thank you. I will. Now what's this about your master? Has he been drafted?
Top student Chen 08-16-03, 03:50 PM	Chen leads him to a room with a low table and some cushions. he sets tea. while he leads him he speaks. ''yes he was... i do wonder what will become of us."
Kami no Kenshin 08-16-03, 09:54 PM	Hmm....... Is there nothing to be done to stop the war? Can't a peaceful solution be reached?
Top student Chen 08-17-03, 07:19 AM	Chen shrugs "this is all about the trade disputes i belive.. well in any case, its out of our hands."
Jordan Task 08-17-03, 11:25 AM	OOps...sorry...wrong login ID.....
Kami no Kenshin 08-17-03, 11:29 AM	Wait a minute.....you mean to tell me that your country is going to war with a neighbor over....trade? The rulers of these nations must be foolish indeed.
Top student Chen 08-17-03, 02:34 PM	chen laughes "well.. yes. we in our little place here do not keep up with the staes affairs. we pay the taxes.. which have about taxed us to death, and the government leaves us be. well.. thats what we had hoped anyway.. now we suddenly get drafted and such.. " chen sighs. " i told master this was not a good place to stay.. sorta.. it was me who convinced him to, but i was so tierd of moving around. i just ran out out of patience. now look.. this is all my fault.. well in any case, its none of your concern and i dont know why im telling you about our troubles. you dont seem to be from here or around here at that. What brings you to this place.. heh.. if you dont mind my asking?"
Kami no Kenshin 08-17-03, 03:10 PM	As I said.....I'm just a wanderer. I'm here because.....I've never been here before. To tell another about your troubles makes them easier to deal with. It might also bring aid from unexpected quarters.....
Top student Chen 08-17-03, 05:43 PM	chen nods. "i see. well.. theres not much left to say until master comes back.. if he does.." sips at his tea
GM Will 08-23-03, 03:26 PM	Sorry about letting this lapse guys. :( I've been busy with getting ready for college and some other ISRP things that have been going on. Also, one of my players (Riacel) hasn't showed yet. Think I'm giving up? No way. This thread will go active again, with any luck, after I get back in college next week. :)
chi master Fong 08-24-03, 02:16 PM	((suuuure. we understand that youve abandoned us to our fates.. ya dont have ta lie about it :bigeyes: ))
Tharivious_Meliamne 08-29-03, 07:21 PM	(( Nudges the GM to keep the thread going ;) )) Meliamne continues to lurk, watching for any sign of anyone else nearby.
GM Will 09-08-03, 07:20 PM	((I know, I know, but I'm restarting it now, so don't complain. ;) Just let me go over the thread again and see where we were...))
Nugan Wracod Sr 09-08-03, 07:23 PM	Nugan Sr snorts and gestures to his son. "Boy, why don't you let him know?"
Nugan 09-08-03, 07:28 PM	Nugan nods. "Yeah... Ok Dad..." Nugan turns to Fong with a smirk. "Done much diplomatic negotiating in the past? Too bad, because you're now the assistant to the ambassador to Pasitte's kingdom. That would be Lunter here... You're going to get some classified war-time information for us with your skills. You see, Pasitte, Pike, and I are about to launch a full-out attempt to take over *****... However, I'm, of course, not really with them... So, you're going to help us stop it before it happens... Or atleast make it so the..." Nugan suppresses a chuckle. "good guys win... Any questions?"
Jevina Gonnin 09-08-03, 08:23 PM	((Nope Mel, no one else is in sight.)) The bard sighs again, and continues to wander sadly towards the outskirts of town.
Tharivious_Meliamne 09-09-03, 06:37 PM	(( It's about time ;) )) Meliamne resumes trailing the bard (( Who finally has a name it seems, lol )), waiting for him to reach the outskirts of town. Keeping to the shadows and moving in the street rubble and other clutter around him to keep hidden in case the spell wears off. He moves with silent steps, carefully placing his feet on the surest parts of the ground. (( He's going to continue this until about 40 yards away from the town's border. ))
GM Will 09-17-03, 11:37 AM	(( Fong, you still there? I know this dropped again, I'm waiting for our three missing players. Looks like I have to harass some people and get them moving again. :) The thread is still active and accepting new players though. ))
