[OOC] ~The Legend of Zelda: The False Oracle~

[Sho Minazuki]

Gotta ask, since Sigurd would likely have already been investigating something possibly related to what happened to that soldier. What would he already be able to find out?

[Tip Tappers]

He would already know why the messenger was dispatched. Captain Viscen's detachment of knights at the fort is understaffed, and he wants more soldiers to help patrol the Nuun Highlands. With all the recent panic and the King's attention focused elsewhere, Viscen's men do not have the manpower to patrol the countryside after dark like usual. As a result, several incidents of farms and ranches being ransacked by hooded bandits on horseback in the dead of night have been reported over the last month or so. So far the incidents haven't involved too much violence (mostly property theft) making the dead knight in this case seem far more alarming if the bandits are the ones responsible.

That's the extent of what Sigurd would likely already know, I think. He'd have to ask the Captain about the note to learn more.

yeeeha, that post likely aint' happening today. Or at least for another few hours. So tired, but my body refuses to sleep >_<

[Rune_Alchemist]

Pffft.

Syna is not sorry, Sigurd xD

[Rune_Alchemist]

I'll get a post up tomorrow, sorry for the delay~

EDIT: And I realize this is my third time posting in a row on here.

Welp, that's a first for me. It's really quiet in here.

[Tip Tappers]

Take your time. Sorry I'm not more talkative, I'll do my best!

[Rune_Alchemist]

xD

It's fine, more of a general observation than anything.

There's only about three of us here, anyways, and god knows I'm not the talkative sort either xD

[Sho Minazuki]

More people would make this more fun.

Should we while there's so few of us start on looking to character development plans?

[Rune_Alchemist]

Well.

I was working on a post, almost had it finished.

And then my computer decided it would be a fine time to be a bitch, and I lost the entire post.

Will have it up in the next hour or so.

@Sho Minazuki

Well, as far as Syna goes - the only thing I would really like to happen with her is for her to be given the choice to meddle with some sort of dark magic or something.

@Rune_Alchemist

I was actually planning on having that happen to her at the end of this first arc! That's pretty crazy. Wavelengths???

My plan for introducing Atticus is to have the innkeeper point them in the direction of the suspicious Subrosian walking around town as a potential lead for Viscen's investigations about traitors within the town. Sigurd and Syna stumble upon Atticus meeting with his criminal contacts, begin to suspect Atticus of foul play, and then at some point Atticus reveals his fire breath ability. This further implicates him in the knight's murder (remember the charred corpse bit?), but Atticus will claim innocence and appeal to Sigurd to help clear his name.

At some point in this introductory arc, I want Sigurd to receive a tip about how to go about contacting his brother in Holodrum. The process by which this communication is accomplished will then drive the story for much of the early plot of the RP, along with the usual sword and sorcery dungeoneering and adventuring that goes along with the Zelda universe.

That was initial plan so far, I'm happy to elaborate but I don't want to spoil anything so I'd prefer broad questions rather than specific details unless necessary.

[Rune_Alchemist]

Wow, everything actually sounds fairly good. I'll wait for the magic thing then! Now I can't wait to see the outcome of that. I can only think it will go either horribly or very well if someone talks her out of it, because chances are they're going to have too.

[Sho Minazuki]

I assume this arc with Atticus won't be long at all if you're revealing stuff like that so soon.

[Tip Tappers]

It shouldn't take too long. Atticus will be a part of the party pretty soon here and then we'll be off to deal with whatever the threat Captain Viscen's worried about is. Resolving that issue will then lead to the hint about contacting Holodrum and/or the dark magic lead for Syna.

[Tip Tappers]

After reading Rune's post I think it would be better for @Sho Minazuki to respond here instead of going directly to the inn, as long as the conversation is still going on. Let me know when I should come in with the description of the innkeeper scene and his dialogue and all that, or if you'd like you can just manage that yourself and between the two of you write when Sigurd and Syna arrive at the inn and then I'll come in just for the dialogue.

Whichever way works. With only three people at least we don't have to sweat the rotation so much.

Hopefully as this thing starts to run for a while we'll attract attention and add one or two people to the cast. I'll leave the Apply tag on for now.

[Sho Minazuki]

Posting tomorrow. 4am right now.

[Rune_Alchemist]

Post will be up in a few hours~
Sorry for the delay.

Will probably go ahead and get Syna to the Inn and stuff, so you could probably go ahead and describe the scene at the Inn, I think.

[Tip Tappers]

Yeah I was planning to get it done soonish, was kind of busy all yesterday with work. Definitely by the end of the day.

[Rune_Alchemist]

Small post is small, but I was unsure where else I could take that.

That, and for some reason, words are hard at the moment xD

[Tip Tappers]

Don't sweat it. I'm not a stickler for length, I just want substance and quality. I should have posted earlier anyway but hey, it's up now.

[Rune_Alchemist]

I'll get a post up, first thing tomorrow~
For now, bed for me because I'm really tired.
