So, I'm talking with the Baron and have a temporary bonus to my ability to persuade him.

How should I exploit this?

[hermes]

Can I join in team Bucephalus or something?

Get in touch with Cheesecake, he's running Team Equine.  If he's accepting members, then you could join as a Knight or a Squire.

[Cheesecake]

Can I join in team Bucephalus or something?

Sure! We've got an opening for a Knight or a Squire.

[Parsely]

Lap walks out onto the field. _Ahem Lords and ladies! Introducing, Lord Antoine of Gerraos! His shield is steadfast, his affinity with the horse second to none, but most of all, his skill with the lance.. is LEGENDARY! Ladies faint. Drop the mic and leave.

((Dwarmin's is great, ha! ))

    Name:Hephaestion
    Age:15
    Description: A young and thin lad with a curtain of brown locks falling on his shoulders, Hephaestion would make any maiden happy if he was inclined toward such things. Instead, he spend his whole time taking care of his Knight's garments and person, making him one of the best-dressed man of France.

Name... Hephaestion or Patruclus or Patrocles?  Also, the pic is kind of knightly.... and there are so many suggestive Hephaestion pictures on google...?

[Kashyyk]

Honourwill psyche up for the tilt.

[Sheb]

Sorry, Hephaestion. And the pic is the Squire from Chaucer, I liked it, but I can use this one instead if you want.

[Grek]

Ursus will be pillaging the other team's stables for picnic baskets, shillings and bandages. Devour anyone who gets in the way.

Not the picnic baskets!

So, I have a temporary +2 Prancing?

Would persuading a human to do something count as Prancing or Sentience or both?

Yes, until the end of the day.  Hehe, umm.... Both I think.  Persuasion is definitely non-horsey, and Prancing would be most appropriate.  Hmm.. could be rather powerful, if it works!

Ophidia get an automatic success for that speech, and will roll for further success.

Does the Shadowknights cheerleader have a name?

Hmm, unless GWG has to use prancing abilities, I'd hazard it's mostly sentience- I don't imagine being able to trot and throw one's head will convince many humans to do what he wants, (unless it's horsey, like giving him an apple or loaning horse-armor). If a sentience-only roll is required & op, you could use two rolls- one for successfully speaking to the human and a second for how the human reacts- which could be interpreted as linguistic prancing if one wants to split up the checks.




Btw, one of you english majors out there better give me an A on that poem-post of mine. It's solid gold.

So, I'm talking with the Baron and have a temporary bonus to my ability to persuade him.

Get him to loan you his equipment, staff & training grounds for tomorrow's joust.

[Slothman400]

Use my highly trained reflexes(Lancery) to keep a hold on Tenebra.

I don't want to get any "flesh wounds" too early in the joust.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Sounds like a plan, Adams!

Talk about this fine young knight, Sir Stone, and how his family was impoverished for generations, and he will be jousting tomorrow without good gear. Then suggest that the Baron could lend Stone a set of jousting gear, especially a set of horse armor, to not only show that he is a kind and charitable ruler but also to gain the knight's loyalty.

[Sheb]

Hephaestion will try to steal some better armor somewhere for his knight. And some silk too, we can't let him fight dressed like a peasant.

She has two personality, that one with the tattoo and red eyes is Mia Storm. The one without a tattoo or red eyes is Ami Storm. She has a connection with Tenebra.

''My Lords! My Ladies!

And everyone else here NOT sitting on a cushion!!!

Today, you find yourselves equals! For you are all... EQUALLY blessed! For I have the pride, the privilege nay, the pleasure of introducing to you a knight, sired by knights! A knight who can trace his lineage back centuries. I first met him atop a mountain praying to God for forgiveness for the blood of his enemies spilt by his sword! Next, he amazed me further when he saved a fatherless beauty from the ravishing of her evil uncle!

In Fibblewibble, he spent a year in silence, just to better understand the sound... of a whisper...

And so without further ado, I give you the seeker of serenity, the defender of virginity and the warrior of these lands, the one, the only, Sir Hemingsworth Norton TiiiiiiIIIIINKLEBOTTOOOOOOOM!''

(Yes, unashamedly taken from A Knight's Tale. Couldn't resist. My future ones will be more original )

Tristepin tries to encourage the crowd to support Norton, particularly when he's had a good strike in. He shows good sportsmanship by applauding any really good hits the opponent does.
