Haha don't ask me. In my rp, I would've declined it. But my reasons for doing so would've been my settings/plot/intentions for my rp. Which, I may add, are different from this, so *shrugs*

Where do you think it would fit in this rp,@Doc Doctor?
What are your intentions for your character in this story?

You see, I have no idea. That's the problem. Anyone else have a better idea than me?


I don't see how this would work as a character. As a mindless/expendable minion? Yes. As a character? No.

That's what I was thinking. How do you rp this? Where does he belong? How would the others react to him? Other than trying to kill him. :p

Really, the biggest hurdle you've got for yourself with this guy is that he can't speak mortal languages. It won't do him much good to understand us if all he'll ever be hearing is how monstrous he is and how much everyone wants him dead! I'm fine with the character's existence, but I think he needs to have some means of communication. And what that is is fine by me - he can talk, sign, inject his thoughts directly, what have you, so long as he can communicate with everyone else.

The other thing is, why would a character like this be working for someone as opposed to setting up their own group or, even better, staying out of mortal affairs? It's obvious why the Dark characters would want him on their side, but what can they offer him that would make him join up?

Aside from that though, I think it's a decent character and an interesting concept.

It's an ancient evil, are you telling me the Darkness has no place for it?

Could it be that the recent stirrings in the Kingdom have disturbed it? Maybe Nyarlathotep has the power to command and converse with it?

I see no difference between someone playing this, and someone playing as a dragon, and so with that in mind, perhaps Nyarlathotep could have deliberately agitated it, so that it could be used to bring damnation and fear to the Kingdom's outposts.

Until Oglaff finds it and kills it with his manliness.

EDIT: I dunno, I think the best way to go is to a vote.

As I finally sit down, a glass of wine in hand .... I only hope the wine doesn't mess up my ability to write. I cannot promise I will have a post up by tonight, but within the bright and early hours, I should have ffinished, by the latest.

It's not meant to be relatable, or just some Team Rocket style fight n' run. How about a tool of Nyarlathotep that was summoned from the Vermis Mysteriis and is being used to prevent the good guys from, you know, living. It won't just pop out now and then as a boss battle. I'm thinking of a constant menace that always looms near. Not just an excuse to kill off characters, but a way to give them a real and continuous challenge along the adventure.

@Doc Doctor I'm going to leave accepting your character to the GM just because they're rather unique in concept and not alike other characters so I'd rather leave it to Cultural to make the final decision.

I do like the idea of them being a familiar of Nyarlathotep. Perhaps Nyarlathotep could be one of the beings capable of communicating with it.

Personally, I joke about it, but I think the fact that Kalar and quite a few Rangers basically died for Adria, some bard they had just met, gives nice characterization to Kalar, and will be nice development for Adria.

Can I get a quick run down of what the state of Okly is atm? I'm planning to have Nyarlathotep show up at what seems to be nearing the end of the battle and I want to make sure everything I think I know matches.

From what I can see, the rangers are almost completely wiped out. The bandits are retreating, and the rangers are starting to retreat. Their are two zombie knight things approaching the remaining Rangers. A few knights are also part of the battle, but they are off doing their own thing, liara is fighting a bandit named Kaird, aegis is battling a giant bandit, I think someone else is there, and Adria and two nameless Rangers are escaping to the west.

I'll think about it. I'm going to be busy today so if I'm not being a horrible sloth then I will not be around for a while.

@Leslie Hall

Except of course that its actually 10 zombie knights cutting off their retreat for now and two of the cloaked guys joining in from the monument. Oh and Kaird and a really huge bandit are still there and fighting. This is all going on in the center of town and more specifically in the eastern part of it.

@IcePezz Truth be told, I thought it was a good post. But then I think you're cool so I'ma be biased as Hell.

@Cultural Titan Anywhos, what happens now? Okly is drawing to a close, so does that mean we fast forwards things? Drop the characters off at their desired locations, put a disclaimer saying "Three Days Later..." and boom. Or we going the manual way? Not fussed, just wanna know ya thoughts for the near future.

There is a slight problem in retreating as their are ten zombies in the way of going directly east, but there is nothing to stop anyone from going north or south out of town and going whatever way after that. then you lot can each say where you're going in a post and que time skip. That is if Nyarlathotep does not show up first. In which case I would suggest that happen nowish.

You mean west, right? The zombies? I think we all arrived from the west.

you guys entered town from the east if I read correctly and if I didn't fuck up where they came from they came in behind the rangers.

In my head we arrived from the west, although maybe I cocked something up in my posts.

I guess it doesn't matter too much at the end of the day; its a benign detail.
