@Letter Bee
If I had to guess - Thursday-Friday would probably be my best estimate.
Ah, so Friday - Saturday my end.
Guess I can wait that long.

Noble Arms is now either four years old, or three years and eleven months. The third thread had lasted for more than one year.

My Roleplay, Noble Arms: The ASEAN War, will reach its 4th year in June or July. It's been a long journey.

@Letter Bee
I'll be active very soon - finishing up one of my last projects, so I'll be able to post more and GM more often.
Cool!
Any estimates?
@Ulstermann, So, the rythm is going to be one or two posts per day?
Name: Linus Carpenter
Appearance:
Ignore the Modern Clothing; Custom Anime doesn't provide many options for Medieval Wear that isn't Armor!
Age: 1200 years old.
Deity: Well...this is a bit complex. Linus was born not through normal human reproduction, or normal Human-Divine reproduction, but was rather born from the Spilled Blood of Yeshua bin Yosef (yes, him) when he was crucifed in Golgotha, and the tears of Mary Magdalene. This technically makes him the Grandson of God.
Divine Blessing:
Stats: (level (exp))
Strength: H (1)
Constitution: G (10)
Agility: H (2)
Speed: H (1)
Will: G (10)
Power: G (10)
Magic:
Change Water to Wine (Custom Spell) - Wine, despite the bad rap it gets, is a natural disinfectant, and in an age where water is normally dirty and carries all manner of nasty diseases, the ability to turn water into wine means that you can turn even swamp water into something drinkable. H level.
Loaves and Fishes (Custom Spell) - Linus takes a piece of solid food and splits it into several parts; each part then grows to the size of the original piece, increasing the overall amount of solid food. This can be done as long as Linus has Mana. H level.
Divine Skills: (2 skills which you are supernaturally gifted in.)
Medicine
Carpentry, including the use of Hammers.
Equipment: (Mundane materials, like steel, have a higher maximum strength/speed level that they can be used with, but a lower magical power level. Natural items, like wood, have a higher magical power level, but a lower max strength/speed. For example, a steel sword would have a max strength use of G, but a max magic level of H. If you exceed this level, the item will be destroyed.)
- Pouch of Medicinal Herbs, most of them edible so as to work with Loaves and Fishes.
- Leather Carpentry Apron enchanted to withstand steel (Magic Level G)
- Hammer (Strength Level G)
- Wooden Sword (Magic Level G)
- Nails
- Five Loaves and Seven Dried Fishes
- Waterskin
Mundane skills:
Linguistics, Literate, Charisma, Fireworks Making.
Personality: Linus, being born from blood, tears, and earth, used to feel distant from humanity, but has grown to love them, due to his long centuries of experience. However, despite said long centuries, he still hasn't grown out of adolescent rebelliousness, and although loyal to his family and their cause, is a bit harsh towards their Earthly followers, with the Catholic Church, despite being his main allies, getting the brunt of his annoyance, due to their acquisition of money and power and certain...interpretations of the holy writings.
History/Bio: Linus was born, fully formed, clad in a white robe, some time after the burial of Yeshua bin Yosef, but his emergence into the world was overlooked because of the great events that happened some days later - at the same time that the Ressurection happened, Linus was already wandering upwards to Syria and Asia Minor, seeking answers to the question of his existence. Several years later, he reemerged in Greece, at the city of Corinth, where he was part of the fellowship of Priscilla and Aquilla in the early Christian Church, before leaving to wander east, towards Parthia/Persia and India, finally reaching China a century or two later, where he fought with Sun Quan and the Kingdoms of Shu and Wu in the Battle of Red Cliff.
He stayed in China for a few centuries more, then, after hearing rumors of what happened to his family's Church in Europe, raced back there, taking several decades to reach the region, where the Western Roman Empire had fallen and the East was in dire straits. Apparently, Judaism had split into three religions, each claiming to be the true voice of his Grandfather, and which were warring with Polytheists and Zororastrians and Machineans. Each of the religions had their own merits - and that's all he would say about that - but he was rather annoyed with the successors of Priscilla and Aquilla, the Catholic and Orthodox Churches, who despite praising Priscilla as a Saint, completely and utterly forgot that she was a female leader as well, one who held power over men even after 1 Timothy was written.
Swallowing his irritation at this, he put himself in the service of the Catholics, doing charitable jobs for the Church and fighting bandits, sometimes non-lethally, sometimes not; he wasn't his father. That said, though, another source of his anger were the rumors that his mother was a prostitute, but that was dealt with by a pact with the Church - they would stop spreading those rumors, in exchange, and this was also to keep the balance of power in Europe - he would bestow the Church's Holy Relics with the largest portion of his power, reducing him temporarily into the level of an Initiate-rank Demigod.
He still has doubts about that deal. But for now, though, best to see what this 'Rogue' business was all about.

I made an OOC. If I thumbs uped your post, you can post to the character tab.
Letter, can you add the bit about why you no longer have your full powers?
Yeah, will edit.

SECONDARY QUEST- Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained
"You hit the nail on the head, Mr. Rapids." Dr. Ney admitted, fitting a cigarette in a long ivory holder. "The Order has been slow in developing alternative sources of power generation. If I could, I would take a different direction. But it's politics that is the deciding factor here, not science. Unfortunately. But in Orleans, there isn't any real alternative. The Order gives us stability, up to a point." Ney shrugged. "At least they used to. Now, with the revolution gearing up for a fight, I'm not so sure how the game ends. Not that I can make a difference there."
SECONDARY QUEST- Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained
Par chuckled.
"Are you so sure about that? There are other ways to fight besides brawn." A smile. "You know the intricacies of Orleans' Power Grid and related infrastructure, and we both know how much the Order needs power for its luxuries and the defense of its luxuries." Par instinctively straightened his glasses, and began inching towards the big reveal.
"I'll tell you a secret; my parents were killed by the Order back when it was anti-trade, just a few years or so ago. They would have wanted me to bury the hatchet with the Order if it meant profit, but, well, let's just say that the Order snubbed me when I tried to give our relations a new start." He waited for the shock to settle on Ney's face.
"You're a knowledgable person; we're both knowledgable people. This conflict, like most historical conflicts between a rotten regime and a morally dubious, but genuinely aggrieved, bunch of rebels, is going to get worse instead of better. So," Par began to risk things, "why not join the faction that offers you not just a reward, but whose aims would give you more freedom to develop benign scientific research?" [Int 10]
"That is what I eventually did." [Cha 9]
More shock; the next few moments were the deciding factor.

SECONDARY QUEST-Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained
"Indeed," spoke Par. "as for the delicate nature of your own Photovoltaic cells, if I may be so bold, but perhaps it is because of lack of natural silicon and rare earths, forcing you to synthesize or salvage them? I did research on Louisiana's Pre-War Geography; you had immense petroleum reserves, but little other mineral resources. We have the same problem, but active sponsorship of better ways of synthesizing materials, as well as occasional trade with caravans from the west, make up for it." He then smiled.
"But I'm revealing too much; point is, though, a certain openness to outside trade and ideas helps in scientific development. And I have to beg pardon, but The Order doesn't seem to have that much openness." A nice hook-and-bait to draw out more of Ney's opinions of the Orleans Order, one that can easily be withdrawn if it proved to be offensive.

@Ulstermann, Sorry for the delay, was working, and still am, doing a CS for another RP.
