Just to make sure, I can stick my character just about anywhere right?

Anywhere within player Empire. And within limits of logic.

Of course. I may have a few spots of activity today, but I'm pretty busy. I'll be online almost all day tomorrow though. But I'll try to at least get an introductory post today.

I'm aware of that. But my character is basically advocating maintaining the rights & customs of the people previously under the Confederation of Whitepeak. Should I modify my post to make that clearer?

Shootandrun: Let me roll the brawl related actions, please? There's hidden stuff going on involving it that needs rolling, and I don't know if they all PM'd you as well.

In relation to that, assuming Shoot gives me the go-ahead: Anyone in attendance who still has yet to post an action in response to the senatorial brawl?

Hm, forgive me for my meddling, but I find the idea of this forum game quite interesting yet I really can't figure out properly how this game works. Can someone explain me how it is and what's going on in Hadria?

Certainly. The YaK games are essentially a kingdom/empire sims, where all players participate as characters inside a given knigdom. One of the players plays a king/emperor and rules over the country, whereas everyone plays a courtier or a noble or a politican (although the roster of characters most certainly goes beyond those immediate ones: mercenaries, assasins, adventurers are all have their place in our kingdoms).
From that point onwards, we are playing a game of conquest, politics, intrigue and romance. Pretty much everything goes, as long as its within reason. Our GMs are making sure that everythin that happens is interesting, and create events that propel the kingdom forward. So we have players going to war in the name of their king, spying on each other, plotting and fighting for ideals and honour or power and personal gain. We all fight for the royal favour, although we had instance of rebellion and plotting in almost every game - it is expected that kings should be in fear of their subjects, for they are not all-powerful.

We have a wiki and there are old game threads all over the plce just refe rto the first page of our IC thread. we also reside in the IRC channer under #YaK4, so you are welcome to join us there and talk with us directly.

Now for the rundown of events in Hadria: Emperor Septimus (Azthor), begun conquest of our neighbouringh countries and joining them as provinces under our empire. Most of major players are senators and through lot of silly politics we are currently fighintg in the senate building. Don't worry, this is a common ocurrence in all YaK games, where our collective insanity takes over and trumps logic and politics.

Okay. So my idea for a character is basically a bright and young military dude with a really big ego. Like a Caesar in his youth kind of dude. Seeing as there is a war in progress, could I start a character as a commanding officer in the army?

I suppose you can. Nevermind Taricus, he's afraid because you'd be competing with him.

By looking at the spreadsheet, all the troops have a commander already, though. Maybe there's still something to be done in the army? Maybe a smallr officer under some of the legates in charge of pacifying the conquered regions?
