  • I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

      I think I'll just make up the numbers as we go along

          • Might be the safest place...

            Anyway, I hope you two are nosier than Dorlin and Korendil. Those guys just aren't nosy enough. Where's the fun if we can't go around pissing off all the nobles by prying into their secrets?

            • Just a quick note: How long is our downtime going to be approximately? I need to organise my notes properly and it is taking much longer than anticipated. In other words, it will be a few days before Dorlin appears to actually be doing anything.

              Hopefully that won't be a problem.

              • I say that it'll stop Wednesday at the earliest. So you have some time. Uvaer at least wants to go on a little mini-adventure, it seems, so...

                • Got it in just an hour before Wednesday ended (for me).

                    • Zerak's mind shouts back: Wait a second, that is a description of me, not a background. It doesn't even mention where I grew up!

                      • Sorry, should have posted earlier.

                        Uvaer is from the mountainous region north of Upper Vorfinch. 6 months of the year the region is covered in snow. Summers are surprisingly warm.

                        My family live in a mining community set up by the old Seridian government. Since the collapse of the empire we gained autonomy. The community is large but very little contact with outsiders now occurs. Recently small trading has began to occur with the new Meria Empire.
                        The local noble family is only distantly related to the Seridian nobility and due to the isolated location and interbreeding with the locals is now considered to be local themselves.
                        It is a tight nit community that now has to be self sufficient both economically and militarily. Goblins and the Dark Elves while rare are still a danger in this part of the world. The town sits around the keep, built when the Seridian Empire was at its height.

                        Up until 25 years ago we traded equipment, metals and mining knowledge with the dwarves however they have since disappeared leaving us almost completely isolated.

                        Whilst most of the community originally was to support the mining industry this lessoned with the fall of the Seridian Empire only recently becoming important again.

                        My family was traditionally in the service of the old Seridian Duke as huntsmen, trackers and rangers however more recently with the degradation of the noble family we have served the community as a whole in a similar role.
                        Due to the hostile nature of the world around us we have also had to serve as outlying border guards/scouts/sentries. More so than others from the town.

                        My parents are alive and well. I have an excellent relationship with my parents.
                        I have three siblings. Three sisters. Two are married, one still lives at home with us.
                        I am unusually single for someone my age. Mostly because most of the local girls bore me with their insular view of the world. I see the mountains and want to see what’s on the other side.

                        Although visitors are rare one young family did arrive in Bailton staying for a number of years. My eldest sister fell in love with the son of that family and travelled with them when they eventually moved on.

                        We have not heard from her in 4 years.
                        I am bored with my life in Bailton and have decided to search for my sister.
                        I have been searching for over a year. Initially I travelled through Seilje, Valkyborg and Adelhyde.


                        I had heard from relatives of the family that my sister and her husband may be in Meria. It appears not, so far. I now have no further leads, have no money and do not want to return to Bailton.

                        Hence I join the army just to get enough money to move on, in the search for my sister.


                        There is some other stuff, but I won't post everything.


                        I'm Human. Ranger. 5 11. 180 lbs. Nondescript, brown hair, blue eyes. Leather armour, I carry a Great Sword but prefer to use my bow.

                        • Good news. Today, I didn't spend all of my 3 hours (the amount I seem to be spending per day on this) devoted to writing up huge replies; maybe that city description will be actually up tommorow. I know I just finished the crude map; all I need are some brief descriptions now. And I can finish planning the details on Mission 2.

                            You get to know Zerak better when you start talking more with him.

                              Nothing happened during the weekend, yes?

                              • Aside from me helping repaint my parent's bedroom, no.

                                Hopefully Mission 2 should be sent out tonight. Probably late tonight.
