Wizard's Tower (a magic medieval-fantasy RP)

@Cyclone
I like it so far. But, of course, I have some questions about the figurines (who wouldn't?)

Namely, I wanted to point out that the Prince is a super-skilled telepath, and, in conjunction with with our other telepath, could likely mentally control the behavior of the things you let out of that pouch.
Also, could he ever create more? I suppose he can.
Also also, I demand you turn at least one enemy into pure beer.

@Hael

Of course he will turn an enemy into beer at some point (probably several points, actually...). After all, combat is thirsty work, and by the end of it Crompter will most certainly be looking for a drink!

Crompter isn't a necromancer and while he could certainly turn a carving of a bear into a real enough bear, it would be a limp piece of meat. He couldn't animate it to life. So yes, like I hinted at all of those figurines were once living creatures that he crossed and he could make more, though it's not the easiest process.

As in for telepaths controlling the figurines, sure. Provided they don't panic to see a gigantic troll or something suddenly appear next to them, anybody with mind control abilities would be able to synchronize well with Crompter's almighty pouch-powers.

Yes, we all know that scantily-clad cartoon women is HERESY. I hate the no good, indecent heretics that are like that: everybody knows that it's unholy and forbidden to wear any clothes whatsoever.

Wizard's Tower (a magic medieval-fantasy RP)

I got down everything except the backstory and how he found the tower; I've got those sections planned out though and I'll get around to adding them soon. For now I figured I'd just show you what I had so far, and gauge your reaction to his weapons.

My Mostly Complete CS

Name: Wizard Crompter

Aliases: Cromp, Crompy, The Drunkard

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Appearance: Crompter's appearance is not elegant by any means. He looks every bit like your run of the mill pauper, with worn and filthy (but comfortable) clothes, the face of a man down on his luck, and the reek of alcohol so pungent that it can almost mask how rarely he bathes. He stands at about five and a half feet tall, a few inches shorter than most men. His build is far from puissant as well, for while he is not fat or even flabby he certainly wouldn't be described as muscular either. His hair is unkempt and down to his shoulders, mostly light brown but with a good deal of grey beginning to appear. He has short but scraggly facial that's all grey, and his face is slightly wrinkled.

Still, through all of that roughness it's easy to see that he was once a handsome and happy youth. Things have changed, though, robbing him of that allure and giving him a weary look. His brown eyes are wizened if you look closely enough, though of course few people do. In any case, for all the intelligence behind those eyes there is an equal amount of apathy, contempt, and cynicism at the world.

Altogether he appears to be in his mid forties, which is incidentally about as old as he actually is. In an age when most men die young, you could call him an elder, though of course his ragged appearance ensures that he receives none of the respect that most his age are able to command. He looks exceptionally young and robust for somebody with his indulgent and depressed lifestyle and temperament, which is most likely due to his magic being capable of slowing down his age.

Backstory:

Weapons: Wizard Crompter always wears a belt, no matter the outfit, and on his belt he keeps two objects: a wand and a small leather pouch.

The wand's purpose is obvious, being used by many sorcerers to project their magical powers more accurately and easily. Crompter has an especially exquisite one that was crafted from magical wood by elven wood-singers, before being doused in all sorts of strange oils and undergoing various enchantments and imbuements to make it stronger. The result is a rare and effective tool, a remnant from his time as a affluent and prominent members of the Institute.

The pouch that he carries is for a stranger and much more secretive purpose. Inside of it he carries tiny, thumb-sized figurines and dolls made of wood, stone, metal, and all manner of other materials. They would be fine toys for any children, the wildly varied collection sharing the sole trait or being flawlessly crafted with amazing detail and precision. There are savage orcs clutching axes, sly bandits with bows, ferocious bears, and all manner of other things from across the world. While Crompter might keep some as souvenirs, they are certainly not toys. Instead, they are like acorns; tiny seeds that can grow into mighty oaks, or in this case, live monsters and beasts to aid him in combat.

He merely has to open the pouch, toss a few of the figurines onto the ground, and use his magic to grow them to life-size (or bigger) and convert their inanimate composition into flesh and blood. While such a feat is unheard of and considered impossible by the other, narrow-minded and incompetent mages that follow study the art of Alteration, Crompter is in another class entirely. It certainly isn't easy for him to create more than one or two bears or trolls in the thick of combat, and once they are summoned he struggles to control them in even the most basic of ways, but nobody ever sees this trick of his coming. Still, they make a good distraction most of the time. One has to wonder though whether all of those 'toys' stowed in his pouch are just what they seem or if they were once living beings...

How did you find out about the tower?:

Personality: On the surface he is negative beyond belief, a physical and mental drain to anybody within earshot. You could say that his temperament is sarcastic, cynical, mistrusting, spiteful, bitter...the list goes on. Fortunately for the rest of you, he is usually happy to keep mostly to himself and not be the one to engage in any interaction.

Perhaps someone patient and amiable enough (They'd also have to strike him as being a decent person and not a dimwit, of course) could break through his shell and bring out the warm and vibrancy that he once had, but good luck with that.

Magic School and Skill: Alteration. He has never bothered to learn more than most basic parts of any other schools, and much of the little tidbits that he did learn about those he dismissed as rubbish, impractical, convoluted, or otherwise worthless. That, or he got drunk and forgot about them. In any case, Alteration is about all that he works with, but fortunately he's perhaps the most powerful Alterist in history. Primus himself would have been impressed (or perhaps even surpassed) by Crompter's talent in that one field.

Crompter's Alteration magic probably makes him one of the better fighters to begin with because he could shrink you, turn your fancy steel armor into a thick layer of cow dung, or perhaps just be more direct about it and send a blast of magic that turns whatever it hits into stone. I'm hoping that you won't think having his pouch on top of all of that makes him overpowered. I think it's a pretty double-edged sword every time he uses his pouch because it just creates chaos and he has no way of knowing what one of the figurines will do once he revitalizes it.

No posts in two days? Well this suddenly slowed down

Ialu achieved demigod status, though he still hasn't figured out the extent of his new powers.

The Sun Will Never Set (A Statisticless NRP)(It had a good run)

9500 characters and I'm about 2/3 to 3/4 done. It's looking like this post of mine might get a wee bit long

I hate to keep delaying it further but it's not going to get done tonight. When my mind is fried like it is now, you wouldn't want to read the typo-ridden garbage that I come up with

Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay (Rebooted)

I'm not so sure about them rebelling, because Ialu is probably just as violent and chaotic as Viscardi was. What reason would they have to not be loyal and risk dying? Not much will change under Ialu's rule anyways.

Vestec also did kind of say that they'd just follow the strongest guy, and Ialu did kill Viscardi, so there's that.

Attack the Cimex....hahaha. Anyway, the Uri are going to play it safe, actually, they might end up going dormant for abit, they kind of need the sun. Do you wanna do a collab on the attack?

@LokiLeo789

Yes, it'd be great to collab for that and I was going to ask if you wanted to do something else too actually. I'll PM you in a second

@Kho

He was just cursed (actually, wouldn't it be a censure?) to never wield weapons and he is going to have to probably spend a while bringing Garakai under his control, somehow managing his lands back at home, and dealing with the crazy golden-light dude in his dreams. After this timeskip though, he may brave the terrors of the night and try to attack the Cimex to appease the Mighty One so that day can come back.

Granted, even with his (I think 6000?) loyal subjects/worshipers and demigod status, I'm not sure if he could live up to Ryak's expectations.

What is happening with the Cimex? Are we calling that off due to the Great Orabil Burning?
