I think I just pushed the wrong button on my iPad and nuked France. Hope no-one noticed.

Reminder to all players: You regenerate ten energy per turn. If a skill costs ten or less energy to utilise on any one turn, it may as well cost 0 energy to use. This is a bad thing, for obvious reasons. Just saying.

It does? In the thread header it says we regenerate 1 Energy/turn, and that we start the game with a maximum default of 10.

I think @Behemoth542 switched it from 100 Energy with a recharge of 10/turn when he moved over from the Interest thread. :)
As a doctor with no official license dissection needs to be performed to make sure everything works properly.

Need to borrow my rusty machete to get through the tough gristly bits, or can you make do with a steak knife?

Also in seriousness I am just trying to help him get an idea that will work and not get Ellri-raped.

I heard @Genni quite enjoyed her @Ellri-rape, but that's @Genni.

Actually I learnt how to snipe and took everyone out with headshots. My kind of Evil, precise and cold-blooded.
It also means both you and he will feel the loss of Manaan and Koren will feel guilty when speaking to you. Despite that I don't think there were many Selkath Jedi especially in this period due to their neutrality.

I was going to say that if Koren had saved the Selkath Jedi's life he wouldn't feel so guilty, but the weight of a world on your shoulders is still a burden even if one drop has been caught.

As for neutrality, America was neutral for the first few years of the Second World War (not that we hold it against you at all you lazy tardy bastards :P) and we still had plenty of Americas flying fighters and pounding the ground as extra-national volunteers.

Mmm... crunchy chicks, my favourite.

As she's so in tune with others emotions and was formerly a slave, has Leena got any long-term emotional damage from the on-going negative mental pressure she's been under for most of her life?

Don't worry, Hilda always smiles at customers like that on general principle. Once they've passed out drunk she never knows what she might find hidden in their boots.
I did ask when I announced the IC open for paragraphs to be kept to less than 10 lines if possible, as large blocks of text on the screen can make reading difficult and cause problems determining pace, importance and focus for characters too, in turn making it difficult for others to tell exactly what's happening in the scene.

It also makes it difficult to pick out speech, as well as parsing what is character material and what is requests, comments and queries directed at other players. If each of you could choose a colour to use highlighting what part of your posts are speech, especially when directed at another player, that would also be a great help.

Really this is a personal preference of mine due to thinking in terms of comic book panels. A paragraph would normally cover the content for two or three panels, before moving on to another to continue the flow of the story. :)
Walking back out of the shadows, fastening his pants as he approached the fire, Martin moved over to where the mapo was lain out and quickly started to scratch out details onto the parchment. "Right, so I think the majority agree we head for the Free Marches. And there's three possible routes we could take, depending on where we want to end up..."


"The way things are right now it's a matter of choosing between Starkhaven or Kirkwall, since the tensions between the two cities mean it would be an arsehole's squeeze trying to get from one to the other without having to answer a hell of a lot of questions about our intent. We'd most likely get strung up as spies before we made it in sight of the walls."

Pausing to give a nod in Henrietta's direction Martin tapped his dagger down on the river in the middle of the Free Marches. "If we're heading for Tantervale, then we should look to press on to Starkhaven, traveling along the Minanter River. Otherwise there's the coast or mountain routes leading us to Kirkwall."

With a quick glance over his shoulder, back into the darkness from which he'd just emerged Martin reluctantly added, "There is another route as well. An entrance to the Deep Roads not too far from here which could get us to either Kirkwall or Starkhaven a lot quick, and a... reliable source tells me the tunnels are being kept clear by an ally of the Grey Wardens, so it should be safe enough to travel in relative safely. And by that I mean we'd likely get attacked by darkspawn once a week, rather than once a day."

Sitting back down Martin gave a moment for the information to sink in, letting the Company make their own decisions as to what the best option may be without his interference swaying their choice.
Such as Trandoshans!
