Current Remember, nobody actually enjoys roleplaying if there isn't at least five shameful fetishes uncovered by the 2nd page.

Somebody stole my mood ring. I don't know how to feel about it.

Let's be honest, it's far more satisfying and challenging to actually imagine what a character looks like than paste a hundred gifs of a celebrity and call it good.

So, a team of players who are good at playing as a team in a team-based game are individually bad players. Seems kind of silly when you put it like that, no?

My goal these days is to have an RP that can actually finish, or the very least, last a few years. I see way too many die on page one to take chances

ALRIGHT GUYS. POSTING THE JOURNAL STYLE FAN-FICTION ON HERE AND STORYWRITE.COM... I HOPE YOU ALL LIKE WHAT I GOT.FIRST OFF, A FEW NOTES.I'll write what I encounter in game. Its just how I roll. I won't be adding things that have not happened. Secondly, I've got a 'few' mods running, so I'll be reffrencing things that happen in them. I've got a bunch of Immersion mods running, Moonlight Tales, and the like. Three of the big mods are 'Wyrmstooth, Faalskar, and Moon-and-Star. I hope you enjoy. x)Okay, I didn't actually meet THorald, but I did come across a Thalmor prisoner... Just a teeny bit of artistic liberty for the sake of a bit of storytelling... Also, the Typos are typos that Caius Vorenus made. >_> /blatantlie


FINALLY GOT TO READ THIS!

I actually really enjoyed this little write up, I always enjoyed 'Let's Play' style things where it's written in a roleplay perspective, and it's certainly a fun way to give a bit more life to the things you encounter in the games. It's interesting how perspective can totally change how you perceive an encounter, especially if you're sticking in character. It reminds me of when I play Marassa in my Skyrim, it's a rather interesting challenge staying totally aloof to the happenings of the world and not joining any of the guilds because she sees them all as pointless exercises, and she has no reason to go into caves/ ruins unless she's looking for shelter or coin. Having restrictions based on roleplaying can add a lot of life to a game! Either way, do moar. I wanna see what kind of kooky adventures you get yourself up to.
Most Redguard are very talented fighters, since they are a fairly martial society and they're raised from birth to be warriors.

From the Wiki,

Redguard society is extremely martial, and nearly everyone is expected to have a grasp of basic weaponry and combat, although only the rulers are generally expected to have any knowledge of strategy, formations and tactics. Only the strongest, fastest and smartest Redguards are accepted into the demanding military (which consists mainly of various knightly orders), and they are expected to prove themselves worthy by facing death. Even their entertainment, like snake charming, bears some risk to it. The practice of eastern magic is greatly frowned upon by Crown and Forebear alike, and outsiders are not tolerated in many parts of Hammerfell.

They are a highly disciplined and enterprising people, having centuries of experience with warfare in their homeland. Their warriors are acknowledged to be among the best in the world. The Redguards are also known for their naval prowess, and their fleets have proved a match for the Empire's best armadas, as seen during the Stros M'Kai revolt. Stros M'Kai and some parts of mainland Hammerfell hold many Dwemer ruins, and some young Redguards seeking to enter military service must brave the dangers of these ruins. Most of their holidays and traditions seem to revolve around either the celebration of natural phenomena or the commemoration of great battles and warriors.


As for Captain Ismal, it would be best not to underestimate him. You need to ask yourself what kind of man commands the loyalty of a highly effective and ruthless group of guards, especially in this kind of society.

Hell Talos is the patron deity for all 'men' in general.

And the Redguards are not from Atmora at all.


No, the Redguard have no connection to the Nords, did not mean to imply they did. They came over from Yonkuda , which apparently sank, which forced them to find a new homeland. I'm pretty sure they arrived in Tamriel after the dwemer vanished.

This is a good question. I think you're spot on: A team meeting the day after Kahje, where we argue a bit about Mark/ the mission and then end it when we get a distress call (and then we're off to go pick up the newbies)


This right here is what I had in mind.

Mosis, I'm also writing up my part of the collab right now. Sorry about last night; I came down with a horrific fever. I haven't been that sick in months.

Are you guys still taking apps for this?


Honestly? I can't see the harm in it. We accepted a couple new people who either dropped or never came back, plus we seem to be missing a couple from our usual roster. I'm personally perfectly content with a new application or two.
I couldn't imagine not having some sort of personal relationship with the people I roleplay with. As it was mentioned by Lazio, it can be VERY awkward if people just have a business-like approach to it. I just can't see how it can be fun being so impersonal while doing something like this for a hobby, you know? It would be like being on a sports team and not having any of the comradery or friendships that come out of that.

Because that worked so well for the USSR, China, Vietnam, and North Korea.

Yea, it's more of a fascist concept. Then again I enjoy being an asshole in games just because I can xD.


This is the first Aldmeri Dominion. The one in Skyrim is the 2nd, which is the one that's full of asshats and religious oppression. Keep in mind this takes place like 1000 years before Skyrim.

There's been so many times I wanted to share the 'I Ejaculate Fire' music video, but I figure it crossed the line of appropriateness.
Zaveed isn't doing the assassination. He's doing the prison break.
Not nauseous, but a bit squeamish at certain things. It's usually slow, deliberate things to sensitive areas (webs of fingers and toes getting cut, for instance. ) But things like dismemberment, disemboweling, et cetera does nothing.
