@icmasticc I've got something in the works. I might not be able to bring it to a state where I can send it to you until early on Monday, though.

That's fine @JulienJaden. I doubt the RP will start over the weekend.

Doing some lore-crafting on Scion. Anyone else's character born on Scion?

Is it okay to cast tentative interest? I have a character ready but with the way things are going I'm unsure if I'll be able to keep up in the near future. I won't have any qualms if someone who is fully commited takes my place.

I really appreciate your honesty @XecutionerRex. In all honesty, I would rather you did not begin if you know you're not going to be able to keep up in the near future. The problem is if you begin and we just end up having to skip your character round after round (assuming the pace of the IC moves fairly quickly) then it will almost have been pointless for you to start in the first place. Again, I appreciate the honesty as there are a lot of roleplayers that join RPs and then just disappear without saying a word.

However, because of said honesty, when your situation is worked out, if you'd still like to join this RP then PM me and I'll work you in.

Edit:

If any of you are from Scion, take a look at "The World of Zenith" section in the OOC. There's an organization called The Enclave with which you can interact (or avoid.)

@DOOM TEA - I'm going to put that in the OP under the "The World of Zenith" section. That's where we have the player created additions.

The Burning Light... probably aren't fans of them. I'm pretty sure eating people is not in their code. In fact, they probably think it's very much not okay to eat anyone. They wouldn't be openly hostile to God Eaters, and wouldn't attack unless provoked. But there have probably been issues in the past. The Burning Light feels better about The Enclave, I expect, given that they have more similarities, though the Light seems like a much more militarily inclined group, so I dunno if the Enclave would like them back.

A question for the GM... how is our total HP determined? I know our armor types affect it, is that the only thing that goes into determining HP?

Yes, actually, that is the only thing determining it. If I made this RP full stat, it'd be a tabletop lol. The few stats I do have are to basically enforce how dangerous the world is. Which you'll see better in the IC.

I'll give you guys your HP totals when the RP is closed to new people and we're ready to begin.

I am interested in joining.
However, it might take a bit to get a CS up, as I'm quite busy this weekend, I'll give it my best though.

"To Whom it May Concern,

{This parchment is being copied verbatim by Scribe #23348 and is the official Decree of Elder Plianus.}

Our glorious order stretches its tendrils back across the sands of time, and has survived into present day. Make no mistake, one of our most fundamental tenets is self-sustainability and although The God Eaters are seen as barbarians by the acolytes of The Enclave, theirs is an ancient order still. To the long-bearded men of The Enclave, any organization that is able to survive for generations is worthy of acknowledgment (but little more.)

We, at the Enclave, are pragmatic men, and it is never pragmatic to consume the flesh of another human, unless under duress and dire starvation.

The God Eaters are an unscrupulous organization of superstitious brigands (some would say madmen) held in place by fanciful beliefs with no basis in science.
The Enclave concerns itself with the objective pursuit of Truth, the only Truth. Whereas your hunger causes you to commit blind atrocities with sword, our hunger leads us to ceaseless expansion of human knowledge. We are, in some regards, knights of the mind.

You say you want to understand how The Enclave views your order of ruffians - the less we view of thee, the better."

From,
~Plianus the Elder,
Patriarch of The Order of The Enclave




@Luminosity

The Burning Light feels better about The Enclave, I expect, given that they have more similarities, though the Light seems like a much more militarily inclined group, so I dunno if the Enclave would like them back.




"To The Order of the Burning Light,

{This parchment is being copied verbatim by Scribe #23348 and is the official Decree of Elder Plianus.}

Our Bodies, as well as our Minds must remain pure.
Only fools freely take Magic into their own bodies without fear.

An acolyte of The Enclave is taught to purify their body so that communion with the Truth is achieved entirely. Although spiritually, The Order of the Burning Light and The Enclave have similar goals - whereas the Burning Light prefers swords, The Enclave prefers quills & paper. There are some historians who claim that, in ages long gone, our two Orders were one. But when Magic appeared throughout the land, a schism split the organization in half, with those who believed magic would lead to ruin on one side, and those who sought to invite ruin on the other. However, these claims are unsubstantiated in writing, so they can safely be considered a rumor.

Yours is a sin most grave, and ye continue onto the future, burning.

The Enclave, in a less advanced time, sought to study the phenomena of Magic. We now believe Magic to be responsible for most of the discord among the continents, and vehemently discourage its use.

The properties of Magic infect the humors of the Body like a parasite, and unlike most sicknesses, this one can not be removed by leeches."

From,
~Plianus the Elder,
Patriarch of The Order of The Enclave

You know, for a bunch of Scholars with no army, they just insulted what amounts to a very dangerous mercenary order of heavily armored knights with over a millenia of fighting experience... you guys have some balls of steel for a bunch of nerds! XD

The Enclave has ICC support though @agentmanatee. They send them tributes even. If it comes to that, The God Eaters would probably meet the only official army left in the world lol.

@icmasticc I'm not saying they think less of the scholars! The odds of them ever deciding to attack them are slim to none... they don't use magic and can't fight, what strength is there to take from their flesh?

All these fancy groups and orders, with their rules and their people-eating. Maybe Quinn should make up an Order, just to fit in.
"Oh you've never heard of us? Well...we're pretty modest..Being the best it behooves us to, y'know, keep things in perspective." "Oh yes there's uh...there's dozens of us. Most certainly." "Of course it's not just me! I didn't make this up."

@icmasticc

Could you show us an example of how 1 round of IC-combat would play out?

I think I understand the HP and Stamina point system, but I'm wondering how a simple "Player 1 attacks Troll. -10 HP" would look in realtime.

"Each battle post will decrease the left number by one unless the battle post is the character literally doing nothing"

Does that mean once our character reaches 0 stamina he/she should stop posting in the IC for the time being?
