O: oop, indeed...

*highfives for joining the invisible peoples club; current members: 2*


What? Where? I don't see any club?
Sorry for the short post, first day of the semester and I want to get some sleep.
Newt grinned widely at Moon Rider. "It would be my pleasure... if you think you can keep up." She winked at the King. Her tone in the last part of her statement was obviously sarcastic, but the former part of the sentence was meant sincerely. The girl opened up her menu, suddenly curious to check if any new players had joined the Ebony Strykers. Lo and behold a surprisingly large number of players had joined the guild. Not only that, but many of them were level 9 players, something that was fairly surprising for the small guild that had just opened. It was obvious that there was something more to it than players randomly joining. "Say... Moon Rider, did you get some outside group of players to join up? Perhaps... well, the only organization I could think of that would be so ready to swap sides is the Sweepers."
Since so many people are stalking Moon Rider someone might as well say hi.
Newt spawned into the Black King's throne room to find a scene of carnage. Of course, we logged out in the middle of the battle. She thought to herself. Everyone's probably already cleared out or hasn't logged in yet. I'm sure they're not eager to stay without plans or numbers with Moon Rider on the loose. The siege is already breaking, but I have been ordered to help with cleanup. She couldn't help but sigh to herself. The Black King and Emma Roche, what a great team to be taking care of this. I'm sure I'll be useful. She mused, completely sarcastically, to herself. The Black King will be cutting down outlaw after outlaw, but Emma was resigned to the fact that she would have trouble dealing with one. The Ebony Strykers were undoubtedly incredibly weak, with a great disparity between the King and her guild members. One level nine and a couple of low-level newbies, and the other guild member, Flan, was nowhere to be seen.

I could always just wait for the meeting, Moon Rider might not notice... Emma's sword materialized in her hand. Buuuut I guess I should try to make myself useful, she sulked to herself as she left the throne room, emerging into the dreary lonely streets of the Black Kingdom.

But they certainly weren't quite as lonely as they had been in the past. There were outlaws about, Moon Rider, probably Flan, and who knows how many random people attracted by the opening of the Ebony Strykers. Emma was just happy that it wasn't a warzone like yesterday. She could hear the sounds of fighting in the distance. Likely not Moon Rider, since any one of the outlaws were no match for her. But looking for Moon Rider would probably be a good start- she might have her orders, but it wouldn't hurt to meet with the King.

Goal in mind Emma started down the street, footsteps echoing in the desolate avenue. The skyscrapers craned above her, Getting rid of those outlaws is a big task. I'm sure that Moon Rider is able to track them because she's a rouge, but I'm at a bit of a disadvantage. There's so much space to hide. So many buildings, with all those floors...

Ahead was a purple light, dancing in the relative darkness of the city. If I'm not mistaken... that must be Moon Rider's sword. Emma approached the dim glimmer for a better look. As she came closer she caught the features of Moon Rider, executing a lone bandit. I guess I should go say hi. No more games. Emma raised her hand up, waving. "Heeeeeey! Moon Rider! How's it going, queenie?! The girl called out from afar, hurrying towards the King.
And then his signal of Moon Rider was gone.

What exactly does this mean? Are other player's positions/presence displayed to everyone, and how is this limited?

@Lucius Cypher
Tatsumi continued running with the vanguard, keeping up despite the threats that lined the canyon walls. The Lake of Tears, in spite of it's name, was a sight that brought great relief to Tatsumi. He watched as Akemi sent the creature plunging into the lake, using a magic similar to the kind Tatsumi had used, but on a much larger scale. Woah! I may not like her that much, but I've got to get her to help me... I still have no idea what the hell is going on. The creature plummeted into the water, hardening and causing steam to rise above the group, but it still wasn't quite dead. I'll leave this one to the experienced guy, I've already made enough of a fool of myself.

Tatsumi's rejoicing was suddenly interrupted. The Lake of Tears was not devoid of life, it appeared. And the wildlife of the World of Waster Dream was terrifying. The creatures that rose from its depths were monstrous, gigantic lobsters with some very sharp looking pincers and tentacles coated with something. To make matters worse Akemi was nabbed by the them. Judging by her reaction it must be coated in some kind of poison. It looks like she can't move. Sinthe almost echoed his thoughts. "It looks like Akemi has been paralyzed." He added urgently. He looked towards the entrapped vixen. His first instinct, despite their mistreatment of each other, was to save her. He almost did, but resisted. That's suicide. There's no way... even if I do save her she'll probably find a reason to be mad... I should probably wait for the other vet to make a move.

Instead he backed up towards Sinthe. He cast a glance towards him. "Well, this doesn't look very good. I don't really think either of us are in a position to save her. We should probably just hold out and wait for Akemi's friend to make a move." Tatsumi said to the burly army man. He raised his sword defensively.
Don't worry though. Maribel's waiting for him back at the village.


I'm glad you added that assurance because I was incredibly worried.
So Tatsumi, naturally, is going to try to save Akemi but I'm wondering how exactly this'll work. Is Akemi essentially 100% paralyzed? If I write something like 'Tatsumi cuts the tentacles and Akemi falls to the ground and Tatsumi runs and grabs her' (Obviously wouldn't write it exactly like that) is there going to be a fuss about powerplaying, or is it nbd?
Can't say for certain, that's up for Windel to decide. She might have had Moon Rider boot everyone out of the castle, forcing them back to whatever was the last sanctuary. there's also a matter of who arrives first: If Moon Rider gets on she might mop up the place. Or if the outlaws show up again to lay a trap. ya never know.


I decided to just leave my post at login and wait for the GM post.
