preacher of nothing 11-21-03, 09:35 AM	I'm going to tell you a few things about the thread i have just begun. This is going to be more than a story....something more interesting. Something that is rooted in the most evil of things...the mind and the soul. As things change, as people change, their actions will lead to a counteraction of course...and this is what the thread is about. All that is malevolent, vile, dark. All that is pain, betrayal, revenge....but more importantly...the path that leads to accomplishing such things. This thread is best suited for those that have in their possession or even better have read the manual named "The book of vile darkness". Those that wish to join but do not have this manual will receive the material they need from me, through e-mail. The thread is not closed, but before anyone joins it, i ask that they speak with me about that via this ooc thread. I have many parts for people to play, beginning with archdevils, to the simplest man that can change the course of action of the entire thread. From the Vasharan diabolist to the Bugbear servants of Baalzebub.....just ask away if you're interested....
preacher of nothing 11-22-03, 05:30 AM	I see no answer yet....I'll be sad if i have to carry this thread on my shoulders....all alone...... A word of advice: if you do wish to join the thread but need more information, ask away. The beginning is ambiguous, i know, but that is how reality truly is....isn't it? In my mind i try to picture the thread somehow tied to reality. That gives it more of a real feeling....or at least that is what i think, and i may be wrong. I 've always disliked threads that are based only on fighting, only on talking or on a completely fantasy story. The everpresent fight between angels and demons, knights and dragons, battlefields and so on. I'm more drawn to something that catches the essence of humanity in it...not the human kind form the game itself, but from reality. And who is to say that what happens to us whether action or feeling cannot happen to a fantasy creature? Anyway, I'm talking a bit too much now and i've left my idea somewhere waaay behind. What i'm trying to say is that i DO wish people would join this thread....who knows? Maybe they'll find out something about themselves....or even their characters ...
kulideb 11-22-03, 05:46 AM	I'd like to jump in! I dont have the book of Vile darkness so I will need help on that. Any way hes the ch I want to play. Name : Cade Race: Halfling Class: Rouge Cade isnt sure how old he is, some where in his late teens. He was abandoned when he was a few years old and the things he can remember about his mother arnt plesant. He was taken in by an old thief who was no longer as nible as he used to be and needed some one small to do all the work. After an argument with the old thief Cade left him. And makes his own way in the world. Hair: reddish brown, short. eyes: dark brown skin: copper slender build.
preacher of nothing 11-22-03, 07:45 AM	Alright...it feels good to see a response. Here's some info that you'll need. I'll send you all the info you'll be needing via e-mails. I only suggest that you have enough space in your mailbox to receive them all. First of all, the character sounds great. And he would fit perfectly into the story if you change his race from human (i think you said he's a human) to vashar....they're just like humans except for personality....i'll send info bout them through e-mail right away.If you accept he will be playing an interesting part. One of a Vasharan leader. Well...here i go, sending you the mails...
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 11-22-03, 08:13 AM	I'd like to play a Mixan Avertist, which is a prestige class i'll send to you fully written up if you agree. Basicly it's a PrC for those who seek to fight evil with evil's own weapons, and thus they're exposed to an everpersistant risk of slipping over the fine line and sucumb to evil. Will daffenately be CG. As to name, race, and base class, i'll deside if you'll agree to the PrC. If not, i'll think up something else.
ThePreacher 11-22-03, 08:21 AM	Ammm, I have a question : Do I have to play an Evil character?
preacher of nothing 11-22-03, 09:40 AM	Ok, this is an answer to both of the persons that have decided they would like to join. To you Q: Generally, the thread is for evil characters. Now, evil is relative, so what is evil to me might be good to another. But if it were so that the line is so close to slip into evil, then i would have nothing against it...the only thing is that CG is far from that line. The closest to evil is Chaotic neutral, tending towards evil...and yes, the characters will be evil...most of them. i need to ask the both of you if you have the book of vile darkness. If not, i'll place some info in this thread bout what you have to know. Secondly: there are as i said a few parts that i would like you to fill. I will wait to see if you have the book, and after i have an answer i will post what parts need to be filled and you will feel free to choose the one you like. btw: nice name you got there preacher :D
preacher of nothing 11-22-03, 09:51 AM	Dear kulideb, Unfortunately it seems to me like you don't have enough space on your mail account to receive the rest of the info i was sending you.....clear your mail account and i'll send the rest...you'll be needing bout 3 mb free. I'll divide the mails into two so that you can receive the next one, copy it, delete it and then receive the third...let me know when you're ok to receive more
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 11-22-03, 11:10 AM	Nah, if i can't be an anty-evil character i'm out, sorry. My only evil character is ocupied elsewhere, and i don't wanna make any new ones right now. If you'll start this up and i'll like the way it's going, i'll probably join withe som temporary character, maybe with a prestige class from Savage Species...
preacher of nothing 11-22-03, 11:33 AM	Dear Q: you could always play the annoying marshal that keeps butting in on things and keeps trying to follow the clues to whatever's going on...
ThePreacher 11-22-03, 12:17 PM	And actually I am the one who usually gets something like that marshall role you mentioned... I mean, I intented to play a Paladin which starts to doubt his faith.
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 11-22-03, 12:28 PM	The two of us could be your thread's annoying goodies that the others try to either dispose of, as a nuiciance, or convert to evil. I though of being a drider converted to good, so i can serve as the paladin's mount, too.
preacher of nothing 11-22-03, 04:39 PM	that's a good idea you've got there Q.......you two could be the two annoying goodies :D.....don't expect to actually defeat the evil in the thread though.....but you will be a real thorn in the ass if you continue wishing to be such....and if you decide to be the two goodies, i'll need some info on both your characters and their classes....and then i'll be able to mail you telling you just what your part in the whole setting is ok?
kulideb 11-22-03, 04:58 PM	emm..I'm a halfling. I'm not sure what my email is up to, but you can PM me.
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 11-23-03, 05:35 AM	Aight, Preach and I will com up with a concept, and then give you the details. Is a monsterous character ok? Just wanna know the limitations before i start cookin'...
ThePreacher 11-23-03, 08:21 AM	Basically, I'm a Paladin who, after seeing the injustice, Corruption and unbalanced way of how law itself acts, starts to doubt his faith and mostly his deity - Helm. He travels, seeking answers, inner enlightment... and a purpose. Oh, And he's supposed to be a Vigilante as well (a prestige class). Hehe - I'm quite original, ain't I, Dlaeh? :D
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 11-23-03, 09:15 AM	Originally posted by ThePreacher And he's supposed to be a Vigilante as well (a prestige class). Hehe - I'm quite original, ain't I, Dlaeh? :D Don't worry, Dante has two or three characters who share the same class and the same prestige class, and i mysellf have an even worse problem: my amount of different characters tends to grow uncontrollably...:angel:
preacher of nothing 11-23-03, 12:26 PM	Q, i just have to say that by having a large number of characters you can actually be doing a good thing. Simply because it helps you use each and everyone of them better. By comparing them to other characters, thinking how they would react in the same position and so on and so forth. So, after you gents have made up your minds, i will send you the neccesary info. And yes Q, monstrous is more than alright. btw preacher, have i got a plan for your pally :D oh, and in order to not get mixed up in the names since i am preacher of nothing and you are thepreacher i suggest that i be called pon and you preacher....or you find something...
ThePreacher 11-23-03, 02:00 PM	Cool ma man ;) If u want, u can call me MC Preacher... or just preach. hehe. Anyway, I decided. I wanna be a vigilante paladin. should I send you my stats (That you will hopefully approve of)? Anyway, tell me what to do. I'm in.
preacher of nothing 11-24-03, 11:43 AM	ok preacher, feel free to send me your stats and q, you can do the exact same. I'm more interested aside from the stats in the person's history, personality. And if by the end of the week i won't have people that want to play evil characters such as followers, warriors, and even archdevils, i'll have to play them myself.... Anyway, next week we start MWHUAHAHAHAHAHAHAH :devil: :devil:
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 11-24-03, 11:39 PM	Ahh, almost finished my new char... and he turned out scarier and mightier than i thought... But oh well, since he's doomed at the start, it doesn't really matter how powerfull he is, right?
kulideb 11-25-03, 06:15 AM	Hehe! I have just been looking through BoVD. Cade is still a halfling but he is also part jerren, not that he knows this as he didnt know his father. He will use others to get what he wants, but will help if he thinks he will gain from it. He is a thief who doesn't care who he takes from, he's not really an assasin, but will kill if he thinks he has some advantage over the victim.
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 11-25-03, 07:05 AM	That's it, i finished him! Yo Preach, your coup be ready an' waitin'! :cool: Tremmouphindar Waer'honglath male dridder, Chaotic Good Treemouphindar Waer'honglath {had a different name back then} had a pretty high role in the house of his matron; He was like a personal buttler for the matron's closest circle. He was training the children, carrying diplomatic missions betuin her house and rival houses, and was in charge of the treasury. Each of these rolls he used to increace his own power, ofcourse. Treemouphindar was also the one responsible for conduction of the Blooding in his house. Most importantly, he was pretty good at abusing his position, but eventually the test came. After things he had to do during that test, he was led to contemplation, and realised his heart belongs to Ellistraee. Alhough he passed the test, Lloth punished him for his intended betrayal of her before he actually had time to acomplish it, and also made sure he'll never be able to enter a shrine of Elistraee or comunicate with a priest of hers, by laying a curse on him. As a newly-transformed drider, he wandered the underdark, hunted by his house {through a priestess, Lloth revealed his past actions to his matron} surviving mainly due to his skills at sorcery, and his exceptional cunning... untill he somehow reached a remote compound of caves, where the Lost House was holding its rampart. When Tremmouphindar realized what kind of place he reached, he pledged allegiance to the Sewrneoughmix to be accepted into theyr comunity, and inford them he'll be persued by his house, whose warbands will no dobt eventually find the secret passage uppon which he acidently stumbled to come hence. The sewrneoughmix priests sent a magical symulacrum of him back into the caves he came from, and the house's hunters eventually slew it, assuming they destroied the traitor. Waer'honglath himself remained with the Lost House, and eventually became its first dridder member! Life in one place reminded him too much of his former, evil life, and as a result he developed an almost cumpulsive wanderlust. With time, subteranean servants of the Sewrneoughmix faith, members of the Lost House, removed Lloth curse from him partially; he is no longer under a compulsion to avoid ellistaeists, but still acts as if "turned" if he fails a will save in one's proximity. Now he enjoies demonstrating his zeal about goodness. He worships Vyzex as a patron, and also rveres Ellistraee to some extent, but the road of priesthood never appealed to him, nor did he ever see himslef as apropriate for the duty. He often seeks to associate with those who already have earned a reputation of heroism, and even paladins, though law still makes his stomach feel a little week, and he has no intention to change it. He's a follower, rather than a leader. Treemmophindar usually clinges to people with well-spread reputation, hoping to one day earn the name of a hero himslef. Treemouphindar is very passionate, gets easily attached, and responds almost automatically with mutual affection to anyone who shows affection to him. He has a silver tongue {not literally} and is able to influence people with notable efficiency... in the not-too-frequent cases when he manages to concentrate enough on this task. Essentially, the strongst side of his personality is motication, whereas the weekest one is ability to focus. He often fails to remain fixed at a single, chose course of thought/action due to his reclessly chaotic nature. Back in his dark, humanoid daies, his lineage was rumored to be tainted with beings of the Far Realm, and thus some explained the sorcerous tendencies in his dinasty. Now, after his life with the Lost House in his drider incarnation, these rumors seem to be disturbingly well-based. If it wasn't fro his arachnine hindquarters, he would appear extremely attractive, as his hands, face and torso all retain the extreme handsomeness he posessed before his transformation. Currently, due to an affinity he nurtured with the home terrane of his race, he is able to enhance his magical power whenever he's located underground; Above ground, he was known to rejuvinate small plants with his mere touch. His chamelion characteristic, and the light, silvry hair covering his body, he also owes to this affinity. Drider 8/geomancer 3/Devoted Defender 4. Str=17 Con=10 Dex=10 Int=12 Wis=16 Cha=19 Drifts: {1} Light, downy fur covers the skin {the fur is silvery}; {1} Touch causes flowers to bloom {instead of wilting}; {2} Skin adapts like that of an octopus {can change color to blend with surroundings, gaining +4 on Hide checks}.

preacher of nothing 11-25-03, 08:35 AM	well, Q: that's a very nice story and description i'll be able to use nicely. Kulideb, thanks for yours as well, but i would like some more details. You don't HAVE to go as far as Q, but that would be nice :D...... as for preach, still waiting... I think i may have found someone to play some evil characters, but i don't know if he'll say yes yet and so like i said i'm waiting till next week to actually start the thread. If all things go well, and i do indeed hope that they will, you'll each receive the needed info during the weekend.
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 11-25-03, 09:18 AM	"For Legen and the Lost House! Yeah!!!" With his player on his back, Tremmouphindar charges forth, spreading Dancing lights in random directions and spinning his weapon around.
preacher of nothing 11-25-03, 11:32 AM	LOl...from his dark throne, the preacher of nothing looks at Q and snaps a finger....tata.....four pit fiends around Q and the drider *evil grin*
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 11-25-03, 11:55 AM	Dlaeh looks at his char sarcastically. "Say, Treemy, ever considered to sodding shut up?" Anyway, on a heavier note, i hope your real DMing will consist of more than just... you know... fiendslinging.
preacher of nothing 11-25-03, 11:58 AM	First of all, thanks for sending the mail, second of all, LOL....something tells me you're going to like the dm-ing....but don't worry......i will be a dm in a very small proportion. Meaning i will handle my character and let you handle your own, and then make sure that the story moves on...... I hate dm's that shove things down your throat and so on kulideb, still waiting for yours and preacher's descripts
kulideb 11-25-03, 02:25 PM	Will post them tomorrow morrning.:D
ThePreacher 11-25-03, 04:39 PM	Ok, I just need Q to help me a little with designing my character. I hope till the end of the next day though I'll send u all the details.
kulideb 11-26-03, 03:55 AM	Cade could feel the blood pumping through his body, the familiar adrenaline rush giving him the extra power he needed as he ran down the ally way.The sound of his pursuer's feet fading into the distance. he crouched down behind a pile of garbage and pulled the strings of a purse a smile crossed his face making him look like an inocent child. He pulled a few of the coins out and hid them behind a lose brick in the wall. He ran a hand threw his short redish brown hair, took a deep breath and set off back to the hovel he shared with Burrows. "where is the rest boy" said a gruff voice followed with a hard back handed slap. "Never trust a jerren thats what they said." Cade looked at the old thief, jerren, a word he had been called before by his mother. Your just like your fathers kind she had shouted at him. how old had he been four , five years old. Another slap brought him back to the here and now. Blood dripped from Cade's nose, he knew the ropes now. The old thief had taught him all the tricks, an evil glint lit up the halflings brown eyes. Some thing took over him. His hands found thier way round the old thiefs neck and locked tight. The old man struggled trying to claw at Cades hands, his attempts becoming more and more febble till at last his hands fell to his sides. Cade stepped away and picked up the purse, he took a final look around the room, taking any thing of value and left. Cade loved the feel of the sun on his copper coloured skin, he stood for a momment basking. then he set off to collect the rest of his horde from behind the brick in the ally. The half jerren knew he couldnt stay in this city as the old man had many friends who would see Cade as a threat to themselves, they would band together to look for him. Time to find a new hunting ground he thought and may be a bit more information about his father.
preacher of nothing 11-28-03, 08:30 AM	hey kulideb, that was good, pretty much what i wanted to know bout the character. I stil have no answer as of yet, but will receive one soon concerning the evil characters. Anyway, on monday, this whole thing starts.......
preacher of nothing 11-28-03, 08:40 AM	the preacher......you still with us? is that paladin of yours ready yet? I'm still waiting for some info on him :D
kulideb 11-28-03, 04:13 PM	thank you:D
preacher of nothing 11-29-03, 10:20 AM	Alright the preacher, thanks for the stats and story sent to me through pm. Tommorow i will mail each one of you and tell you just what will happen. How your characters begin and so on and so forth. And on monday we will begin
ThePreacher 11-29-03, 05:57 PM	This is how my character was introduced, on the very first time, to the state of doubting his own faith and path in life: - It was a dark day. It had been raining all day, thunder and lightning storms were raging across the land and the seas for a whole week. Lord Lonthar was striding down one of the city's side streets. The drops of rain were tapping lightly on his silver full plate-mail armor. His navy-blue cloak was weaving wildly in the stormy wind. "Damn weather... I knew I shouldn't have been cheap. Should've added the Mythril alloy... arrghhh... He told me I should.. damn... Now I'll just rust off like a piece of scrapped metal". The armor though, did not show any signs of weakness, it shined bright even though the sun was blocked by heavy dark clouds... Like an eternall mirror, reflecting justice upon the world ... That was Lord Lonthar's way of thinking, anyway. He turned to another sidestreet, more like an alley now. It was even darker than the rest of the city, and empty of even a single soul. Walking in his light, firm, but royal fashion he made his way through the dark alley, when suddenly he heard a scream. A scream that thundered across the whole block, a scream that could pierce even through the thick clouds above. It came from one of the houses nearby. Lord Lonthar rushed towards where he thought the scream came from. He stood infront of an old wooden house, it's front door barred with wooden panels. It was then when he heard the inhuman laughter of a psychopat. Thunder rolled, blocking the sound. "What kind of infamy is taking place here?" He pulled out his blade from the sheath on his back, and ran to the back of the building... The back door was swinging on it's inghes in the wild wind. Lightning striked somwhere in the distance, the inside of the old house flashed for a fraction of a second... Another lightning striked... The paladin stood in the opening... he could not comprehend what his eyes saw. A dark figure was leaning above a cruelly malested and abused corpse of a young lady. The dark figure's head turned... It was the face of the king's son... Prince Kain the IV... His mouth curved in an insane grin... his teeth were stained with red... a red liquid was drooping from his lower lip... He turned back to the corpse... and started eating away at the womans chest. "In helm's name, what have you done prince?! What insanity is this?" Lord Lonthar stepped forward, his sword drawn infront of him... He held it with his both hands... but if not for the dark apartement, one could clearly see the blade was shaking... From the corners, stepped out two tall figures. "THIS, is nothing. Nothing, you have seen nothing, Areth!" Said the man on the right of Lord Lonthar. "Just walk away, this is non of your concern sir knight!" Said the other one on the left. "Morte? Horath? is that you?? What is this??? Have you fallen to the dark one's pits and came back as his servants, my brothers? What is this madness? ANSWER ME!!!" Both men stood firm. "Walk away Areth, walk away and forget what you saw today!" Areth Lonthar was in a state of half trance, half shock. He nomore gave heed to the fallen knights' words, and ran towards the prince, who was feasting on the corpse. Two swords spranged in the dark, Lonthar's blade blocked both blows, and rushed on towards the prince. He grabbed him by his blood stained shirt's collar and dragged him away from the corpse... Then Lord Lonthar's back was pierced through... the edge of a long sword was sticking out from his stomach... "Arggghhhh..... Maaay Heeelm s...ss..trike thee.. Aggghhhh..." He fell to his knees. Another blow on his helm knocked him unconcsious. A dark cloud was over Areth's head. He was sitting on an armchair infront of the Order's Head Knight. "You see Areth.. You should really be thankful for being here today. As well as still being one of the Order" The man infront of Areth, was the current leader of the Radiant Heart for 15 years now. He was the man Areth looked up to for his entire time of 7 years in the order. Now, he didn't know what to think... "I do not understand this lord, what madness has befallen our order? Why are you so calm about this? And why in the name of Helm are you looking down upon my latest actions?!" Lord Lonthar was in rage, he did not understand why and how he found himself in the Order's head quarters' cells, and then brought for questioning before the head master. "Understand this Lonthar - this is greater than you, me, and the order. You cannot fight the whole world, you cannot bring order to order." The man, with the graying hair was looking into Areth's eyes, in a way Lonthar never saw before. "What are you saying Ramthor? Have you gone completely mad??" "You see, on the opposite to what you think Areth, the order does nor exist on the donator's money... We need the goverment's support to continue our functional existence, and the goverment needs us to give peace to the people. This is how it was, and this is how it is. There are things we must overlook, so we can live to fight a greater evil, for a greater cause" The man's eyes sparkled as he spoke... it is as if he was possesed. Lord Lonthar sprang on his feet and landed his fists on the headmaster's desk. "What greater evil is there than the one infront of me??? You are a shame to the Order and to all humanity ramthor! I shall overthrow your stance, I shall see to the end of this madness!" He turned away and started to walk. "This is greater than you Areth... I advice you to stay where you are... you might regret this." Lonthar turned around again, he gave a last glance to the man he now despised, then he spitted at his direction, it hit the the Order's symbol upon ramthor's uniform. Lonthar walked away, tearing off the symbol on his own uniform. <How did Helm allow this blasphemy to take place?? how?? a scavanging prince, and a whole fallen order... Is the world going insane? .... what am I to do ... what can I do? .... > these thoughts were eating away at Lonthar's mind as he was riding his only loyal companion... the white warhorse, Sul Thanay - White Storm, out the gates of Suzail.... ((Sheesh... edited for a few careless spelling mistakes))
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 12-05-03, 10:53 AM	Let's write a miniature about how our chars met, to justify why Treemouphindar is now replacing Sul Thanay in his duty, and then post it here.
ThePreacher 12-05-03, 11:42 AM	I didn't realize we were supposed to start the adventure when we're already teamed up, but if that's the case then sure, ok.
ThePreacher 12-05-03, 11:44 AM	Oh.. and... I think that PON is no longer with us... unfortunately. :(
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 12-05-03, 12:43 PM	N-no... l-l-longer... with..? why did you kill him, man!? why!?! {Dlaeh bursts into tears and runs away melodramatically}
ThePreacher 12-05-03, 01:48 PM	He was a servant of evil, I had to fulfill my duty. 'tis a harsh and cruel world we live in, child, you must stay strong.
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 12-05-03, 02:03 PM	But... but... Fmm, good point actually! :angel: Heh, kinda reminds me the Guilty Concience clip by Eminem and Dr Dre
ThePreacher 12-05-03, 02:51 PM	It does? how? :confused:
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 12-05-03, 03:53 PM	"What am I sayin? Shoot em both Grady, where's your gun at? "
ThePreacher 12-06-03, 05:35 AM	I was thinking more like: "Explain? what, she tripped and fell on you di**?" :smirk:
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 12-06-03, 10:33 AM	it was "Explain? what, she tripped, fell, landed on his di**?", but i can't see the connection...
ThePreacher 12-06-03, 12:11 PM	Say, how do u remember all of it? :eek: Or do u have the lyrics infront of your eyes? :smirk:
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 12-06-03, 09:29 PM	lyrics infront of my eyes - no. Listened to it every day during the last week - yes :D
N.Y. Wench 12-08-03, 01:49 PM	Well! My first evil character was a success (a? a?;) ) so if you people need more evils here i think i can make a new one and join So! What kind of vilains do you need? I'll chose a role and make some "ch" that will fit
ThePreacher 12-08-03, 04:02 PM	As you can see, the DM is quite abscent these days... months... years? ... And Dlaeh... Have you only now discovered that old album??
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 12-08-03, 09:16 PM	Nope, but i really missed that song, so a week ago i found the clip via Kazaa and downloaded it, after not hearing it for 5 years or so... And Sneech, i'm afraid Preach is right about the PoN :b: that's one of the two most annoying things about these boards: people feel free to abandon threads without saying a word.
ThePreacher 12-09-03, 11:40 AM	Yea... I was kinda anticipating this adventure. It sounded real good. What do u say dlaeh? Let us dm the adventure? :smirk:
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 12-09-03, 01:40 PM	Let's give Big Pon another week. If even by then he won't return {well, Orkus did - why can't he?}, then we'll announce him irresurrectable and take over.
ThePreacher 12-09-03, 01:44 PM	Kquel :angel:
preacher of nothing 12-26-03, 04:12 PM	First of all,, i would like to appologize for the long time it has taken me to respond to the thread. I know it's been a long time and i haven't kept my promise. Second of all: for your information (FYI): the normal level of sugar in blood is between 70 and 110. A few days after my last post, my mother's analysis came back with 379. It seems she is suffering from Diabetes Mellitus, also known as Insulin-dependent diabetes. I don't know what you know of this illness and frankly i don't care. I am not using it as an excuse but i simply ask you to imagine what time i had to put into helping her this past time. Things are going better now, much better, and so i am now in a a way back to my normal life. I see you have already taken a decision as to taking the thread into your own hands and will therefore forfeit any right to it i might have had. It is all yours gentlemen, use it as you wish. But i suggest you do not label people so quickly. Yours truly, the so-called deceased preacher of nothing.
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 12-26-03, 04:41 PM	Label people quickly? I don't quite remember doing that, but whatever. Anyway, i'm sorry to hear that, and glad to have you back. You are more than wellcome to regain controll of your thread, since as you can clearly see, we did not touch the IC side of it at all, still hoping you would show up. Hope paies it seems:) . {As a side note, keep in mind that the above statement is true when applied to issues more seriouse that roleplaying as well.} So, there are four players waiting for your command; wellcome back aboard and let all hell breake lose uppon the heads of a paladin and his dridder mount!:angel:
preacher of nothing 12-26-03, 04:53 PM	right. Time to get the show on the road. NY Wench...if you're still out there and want to join feel free to let me know, since there are plently of free spaces. As for me, i will now post another post in the IC thread, then start sending info to all the current players. Let all Hell break loose.
ThePreacher 12-26-03, 05:00 PM	Man, I'm sorry about your mom. And you really don't need to apologize if that was the case. Anyway, welcome back.
N.Y. Wench 12-26-03, 08:02 PM	I kinda hoped you'll tell me what kinda roles you have so i could chose from a menue or something but if not then ok i wanna play an insane fiend. She/he should be very powerfull or had been very powerfull but not an arch devil or devil prince just something like the next best thing or the third best after that. Anyway the fiend read some minor artifact book (style Cyrinishada) that makes ther eader crazy and erases most of theyr personality so now she can't be sure in anything and like the Preacher's char doubting law she's doubting everything and acts almost randonmly. She's still evil (evil subtype too) but is like insane and does some actions that work against her own good ( against her own evil) and some actions that go against eachother because she is never sure what she really wants to work for and she does what "seems the right thing at the moment" and this is sometimes non evil or even good! But she has no moral or ethic and is still a very powerfull power of evil even if sometimes she thwarts her own evil well you get the picture? What fiend exactly shoud it be?
preacher of nothing 12-27-03, 04:23 AM	Well NY Wench, that's not really what's required. As this thread is more about subtle things, such as manipulation, using weakness, human feelings and how the smaller creatures (in strength of course) move around like puppets in the darkness of one's larger scale plan. What i mean is that we won't be playing fiends really...not at this time anyway. We'll more likely play smaller roles for now. But since you asked, here are some of the evil characters i have left for people to play. I will play them until they are all chosen...hmm...come to think of it again, i would much rather send the info to you via e-mail so that it can't be publicly displayed....so wench, just gimme your Mail addy and i'll send the evil menu over As for Q and thepreacher, i see that you were planning on meeting. I was hoping that your characters meet later on. That way they are more vulnerable. Meaning they each walk their different path but towards the same goal, and later on they even meet....but by then who knows....they might be changed...so, Q and thepreacher, let me know what your decision is, and according to that i'll send you the info. I for one would preffer it if none of the characters met yet. Kulidbe, hope you're still with us too....
preacher of nothing 12-27-03, 07:49 AM	Well, q and thepreacher, waiting for an answer. As i said in the title, a detail is that it would be pretty strange for the two of you to meet and go on the quest together. It would serve the thread much better if you each followed it separately, like an individual story for each one of you, rather than like a party
kulideb 12-27-03, 09:22 AM	Just to let you know that I'm still intrested and I'm sorry to hear about your mom. I now that diabetes means making quite a few changes to your life.
ThePreacher 12-27-03, 09:42 AM	Listen, I haven't been able to contact Q today for some unknown reason, but your idea is fine with me, we can start this adventure seperately... Hey, it would save us the trouble writing a miniature about how we got together :D . Anyways, as I said, it's fine with me.. We just need Q's answer. So anyways, how is this all gonna start? where do our characters come in? I mean, how do we get involved in the scene described in the IC thread?
preacher of nothing 12-27-03, 10:47 AM	like i said, each one will start separately. Meaning each one will be approached by the drow presented in the IC thread. You'll understand. I was going to ask Wench to play the Vasharan leader, the other one presented in the IC thread. If he wishes is up to him. If not i will play him, no problem. Each one of you will be given a different task, or rather quest in your case since you're a paladin. Remember. You guys aren't even in the same city. By the way thepreacher, i take it you're a Baldur's Gate child
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 12-27-03, 11:55 AM	Ok, fine with me. Then Treemmouphindar should have someone riding him, who will later be killed before he meats with Preach's char. Perhaps a halfling priestess of Cirollallee? In such a case they would probably be working in the nights, doing casual charity in some god-forsaken city, but living outsode of it. By the way, i revised Treemmouphindar a little. Personal recomendation: either make the vasharan a female, or give Sneech a different char... i don't wanna sound like a jerk, but i've seen her playing male chars, and it's not a pretty sight.:nonono:
preacher of nothing 12-27-03, 12:23 PM	hehehe......well in that case i have the perfect role for her. But she'll have to tell me her mail addy so i can send the stuff. And since everything is related to everything i'll be needing her to tell me quite soon since we can start the thread but it won't be any fun without her.
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 12-27-03, 12:40 PM	If she won't post anytime soon, you can send it to me {my email is publicly revealed via my profile}, and i'll deliver ti to her via MSN without looking.
preacher of nothing 12-27-03, 12:45 PM	thanks for the offer Q, but i would rather do it personally since i need to know if she will aproove of the plan. Her character may actually change the course of the thread. Also, for any other that wish to join, i have at least two more important roles for you to play (male roles). I say again as i said before. This is more of a thread that is based on reality in DnD.....rather than on the fantasy part. Don't expect to see angels fighting demons or devils, don't expect to see evil in its raw version. Life is full of subtlety for those who can see and read it.... Q, i've posted two more posts on the IC thread. Let me know what you think of them.
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 12-27-03, 03:42 PM	Well, i like your writing style a lot, really, but current;ly it's just that: writing. To turn it into roleplaying you'll need to involve the rest of us; you said you're gonna send info to each player... well, i didn't get it yet.
preacher of nothing 12-27-03, 03:57 PM	Well Q, i will send the info. Trust me...it's all nicely tucked away in a word document in my computer. But i can't do that until i know if wench will choose to play the part i have ready for her.
preacher of nothing 12-28-03, 08:16 AM	I've sent the info necessary to NYWench a few minutes ago. i will now await a response from her to see if i can send all of you the other info.
ThePreacher 12-28-03, 11:26 AM	Amm.. Actually my char was born in Cormyr.. why Baldur's Gate?
preacher of nothing 12-28-03, 12:06 PM	Phfiew! damn it's cold outside..... Anyway, preach, i meant as in the order of the radiant heart....it was the paladin order depicted in the game Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn.....i should know since i played it with a paladin about 3 times, each time as an inquisitor....anyway, that game made me love dnd and especially paladins, but that's not very important seeing as how now i consider myself more evolved. Since Wench hasn't answered yet, i see myself having to unfortunately start the thread without you right now preach......since her character is going to be closely related to yours. Don't worry though....I will send the info to Q and kulideb, and will send you the info after wench answers me.
preacher of nothing 12-28-03, 01:03 PM	hmm....since i still have no word from wench i am starting to mail people. Q, you're the first, but since your e-mail is not shown here nor in your profile i will pm you the info instead.
ThePreacher 12-28-03, 02:59 PM	Well, yea, that's exactly the order of the radiant heart I meant. Only I believe that the order is much larger than in BG2. And btw, I played a Paladin Cavalier ;)
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 12-28-03, 04:41 PM	Gotcha; Several questions, though: Are the geographical regions you mentioned in teh PM described in any rulebook i could lay my spidery paws on? I couldn't find them in Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting, so if they are there yet, and it was merely my lack of attention, please tell em the pages. Another thing: would you like the priestess to be killed off at the very beginning, or will you and your dark NPC minions take care of that? In any case, she should be gone by the time i meet with Preach's char.
N.Y. Wench 01-01-04, 07:42 PM	Hey you didn't answer my email mister Nothing! And i see you aren't answering here either
Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai 01-03-04, 03:29 AM	PoN, you're not replying to my own questions, and acording to Preach's words and Snee's last post, neither do you send anything to them. Have you been "stolen by creatures that should not be" again? We would all like to be told of such long absences before they happen, you know... Anyway, i'll try to make an IC post today {though i still lack information}, but Preach and Sneech will need theyr infoes too, you know.
kulideb 01-03-04, 06:14 AM	*cough, Cough* I was never sent any thing either,:bigeyes:
Vaypah 10-28-04, 06:57 PM	[snip]I hate dm's that shove things down your throat and so on[snip] Umm, need i remind you of a certain battle with a certain Solar ally against some certain demons?? Also, a certain Black Dragon who got his hyney kicked by said Solar?? And don't you forget it!! And I WILL haunt you 'till the end of your days...BWAHAHAHAHA :smirk:
