[OOC] Castle Grimm [A Fantasy Drama]

[Vashonn]

Despite just setting my character up behind Vashonn's, I'm going probably wait to post after them.

@AnaSilan Sunja

I'll have somethin' up by the end of the day, then!

[Aces Away]

I love how 2 of us are saying my character has blue hair and the others are saying purple and we're just rolling with like "yeah, her hair just keeps shifting hue it's chill". XD

@AnaSilan Sunja

Haha I couldn't really figure it out when I looked at the pic, but I guess I can settle with purple hair :P

@IceHeart

@AnaSilan Sunja and I are collabin' atm, so if @Emu or @Blight Bug would like to post first, go right ahead - we'll be done (hopefully) in a day or two.

[Emu]

Oh, okie doke then. I was hesitating to post, but if it's okay I'll go on ahead.

[Vashonn]

@Emu gnarly - I'll be waitin' eagerly :D

@IceHeart just wondering, cuz I am a bit intrigued - what's the status on recruitment for more folks? I don't mind just four, cuz it doesn't get super cluttered that way, but I think it'd be interesting to get some more people on board

[IceHeart]

@Vashonn Well I'm just leaving it open for now so if anyone PMs me or shows interest in the OOC or interest thread then I'll consider them joining.

Once the collab is done I'll move things forward.

[Vashonn]

@IceHeart - @AnaSilan Sunja will post the 2nd half of the collab later, so don't move things forward just yet. It should be up later today!

[Aces Away]

just got off work, post to come!

[Aces Away]

ta-da!! *jazz hands*

[Vashonn]

I'll have somethin up in a day or two - I dig where this is going

[Emu]

I'm just about ready to reply, sorry for the wait you guys!
And um, I feel the need to apologize for my character being such a huge dumbass. Please forgive me.

[Vashonn]

Sorry for taking so long - I promise to have something up tonight. Might even interact with the Lord, a bit ;D

[IceHeart]

Na its fine, last post was a rather awkward place for anyone to interact anyway.

[Aces Away]

I'll try and make my post within the next day but I'm working for 6 days straight

[IceHeart]

I don't think I've ever seen so many Likes in a single roleplay. Ha ha.

Anyway, the dinner will be a good place to allow some character interaction cross-party wise, before the roleplay shifts into war mode. What I'll try to do soon is have the occasional NPC pop up in places, leaving it up to the player to interact with them or not. The NPC might be in a greedy mood, ready to take your money in exchange for their services. Maybe they'll just drop of some info, or perhaps they'll be trying to spy on you to sell info to the other side. Basically you'll never quite know until it happens if an NPC will be a help or a hinderance.

Also random, well not exactly random, events will pop up outside and during battles which may change the narrative quite considerably.

[Vashonn]

@IceHeart I'll be posting tomorrow, but I'd like to know - Would you just like me to hop right into the beginning of the dinner, when everyone is sitting down? Also, how much control can I have over some NPC interaction?

@Vashonn

I'll probably make a quick post to set up the dinner so there won't be any trouble there. As for NPC interaction, I'm more than happy for players to use members of the Confederacy and Empire to spruce up their posts and interact with. The general framework is pretty much there for them to be used. As for Castle Grimm residents, they can be used as well to a lesser extent such as servants, soldiers and the occasional higher up. If the plot permits it I may take control of those NPCs; however, I'll try to make event and story based NPCs rather obvious in how I control them.

So if using Castle Grimm residents just keep in mind that most consider you curiosities and obviously outsiders, which should help you plan scenes with them when needed.

[Aces Away]

There we go! Just let me know if you want me to change anything about the Elves and whatnot.

[Aces Away]

I suppose I can commend her bravery, but she doesn't look too excited about it herself,

@Vashonn

Lmao Kehah is not happy at all. For a great strategist, she didn't really think through the whole "the elves are their Knights/guards, meaning they'd stay by the royals" thing.
