Alright I'd be interested in coming back as Ned, but:

I want to be a leading member of an important organization. I want to know what's going on and I want to often be the one that will tell the other players. I'm on these forums enough like you said I can definitely play the part.

(Even if it's mostly an NPC role)

[Paxiecrunchle]

Alright, I'll just use this *bump* things up, then.

Should we go ahead and start, or should this just serve as a Bump to get more people to join?

you should try to get more people to join.

Y'know, while you're here, would you perhaps be interested in joining, Paxie?

Depends would making myself into a hill giant indebted to the french army be a valid option here or no?

like a large fantastical humanoid (say around eighteen feet tall)for  whom owes some humans generational debts and is thus in their services in peacetime as a construction worker and living siege equipment in wartime?

That actually sounds good to me! Only problem is, I don't know if I should list that as one of the four players, or if that should be more a Player-NPC thing and there'd be a slot still open. Kinda stuck on that.

...Surprisingly, yes. That actually does make sense. I really hate saying "Within the lore" because no one knows the Lore yet, but it bares mentioning: In Earth IV, Germany and connected areas like Austria, Amsterdam and, yes, parts of France have a very high amount of monsters. This is because there is an abnormally large amount of Rifts torn through Germany's Black Forest (and just for comparison's sake: when I say abnormally large, think "walking five feet from one Rift to see seven more while just walking to the grocery store.")

I...I had a point there, but I rambled. Essentially: Yes, French Giant is fine.

[RoseHeart]

Alright, NPC. PM me when I will give them mission details/make a badass Calvary enterance when they gettin' their asses handed: I'll try to respond 24/48hr or less.

Firstly, the nationality is fine. You can say French (born in Draconia) under there.

Secondly, I'm going to post this little correction again:

"Dragons are too wise to rule with anger and control, since it ends up causing citizens to rebel. So, Agazhim, and all Dragons, Wyverns, and Dragonborn, are actually quite kind and patient, though temperamental and stern."

I will allow Peier (it's either that or you meant to spell Pierre, either way) to be a Dragon slave, but substitute "Dragon Lords" with either a specific Dragon of Evil or Chaotic Neutral alignment, or a guild of Lawful/Neutral/Chaotic Evil/Neutral Dragons. If it's a specific one, Dragon names are made up of three syllables, like Agazhim, Torantin, Kalxolik, Morgana, or Tyrantin.

Fixed {I think} although I have no idea where you quoted that from since I couldn't find it in the setting bible on the discord, or in the OP...also is there some reason I can't give a physical description outside height, weight species and sex? I kind of hoped to at least describe his scars :-/ Is there like a character face randomizer or something you wanted to employ?
Also sounds like the dragons are kind of paternalistic, IDK how they think that won't lead to rebellions.

[Greatness942]

"Fixed {I think} although I have no idea where you quoted that from since I couldn't find it in the setting bible on the discord, or in the OP"

It was in the thread for the other game.

"also is there some reason I can't give a physical description outside height, weight species and sex? I kind of hoped to at least describe his scars :-/ Is there like a character face randomizer or something you wanted to employ? "

Character face randomizer? What's that? I can add appearance, yeah.

"Also sounds like the dragons are kind of paternalistic, IDK how they think that won't lead to rebellions."

It does...and then dragons clean house. "Kind", "Patient" and "Paternal" does not mean "Won't wreck your shit" Besides, despite what that quote says, not every dragon, wyvern, or dragonborn is kind or patient. Some are utter monsters.

[Paxiecrunchle]

yES BUT SURELY ALL DRAGONS DO NOT RULE EQUALLY, THAT WOULD BE AN ABSURD POWER STrUCTURE(direct democracy for every single decision does not work well on a large scale) So what happens when one or a band of dragons challenge others for power, or say a giant kills one with well placed boulder from a sling shot? Even the roman empire, for instance got completely reworked by several large scale rebellions and civil wars. Or when their leader develops cancer and dies naturally?



(the capitalization was accidental.)

More importantly, I think we have four players, so when should it start, approximately?

[Greatness942]

Um, no, they don't all rule equally. I've never said they did? In fact, I said in the other thread that Agazhim is the ultimate ruler of the entire realm of Draconia, though he does have the Council of Ornatos. As for what happens, one at a time.

"So what happens when one or a band of dragons challenge others for power"

Agazhim's titles include Lord of the Fire Wyverns, Progenitor of the Dragonborn, and the Harbinger of the End of Days. He is the one who sealed the apacolypse himself, The Rainmaker. Any dragon that challenges him is either stupid or suicidal. As for the Council of Ornatos, it's very much the same reason as to why people don't routinely assassinate members of Congress: because some governmental force shall capture or kill them.

"or say a giant kills one with well placed boulder from a sling shot?"

I refer you to my last point for Agazhim. In the case of the Council, that would be considered either an assassination, or if the giant was in league with the species or their leadership, they'd go to war.

"Or when their leader develops cancer and dies naturally?"

Dragons and Wyverns are immune to natural death via age and disease, and Dragonborn are resistant.

"More importantly, I think we have four players, so when should it start, approximately? "

We only have three.

[Paxiecrunchle]

Huh, i thought we had four, where on earth are we going to get a fourth player from?

[Greatness942]

"where on earth are we going to get a fourth player from?"

Spain, or perhaps Italy. (JK, It's wordplay)

I'm sure the activity will let someone turn up.

[Greatness942]

Alright, since it's been a while, the game will officially begin sometime this week. Just an update.

[AbstractTraitorHero]

Spoiler: Amnesiac Dalia (click to show/hide)

Name: it's Dalia.
Gender: Female!
Species: I think I am what is called a zombie dear fellows.
Nationality: I honestly don't know...people say I have a bit of an otherworldly aura about me?
Age: 16? 18? Think it was that range.
Height and Weight: Like...70 Lb and 5ft0 I'm kinda tiny 

Appearance: Well looking in the mirror! I spot brown eyes that look a little lifeless but have a nice glow or flicker one would suppose and short straight hair in a bowl flowing down. Angular features and a short nose that I think fits. I have small hips and my skin seems...a little grey and I appear to be flat as a board used as a table perhaps?

I'm rather tiny and i feel light like I am missing something and my innards feel rather hollow. But otherwise, my teeth are shiny and I look nice to my own eyes and as such, I think I like my own appearance.

Allegiance and Alignment: Well I like to think I'm good! But doesn't everyone? I am kinda for like...my friends and myself. Don't know enough to really choose anything else logically!

Backstory: You see my dear friend that is the problem! I don't remember anything! All I know is that I woke up a few hours ago with nothing but the clothes I have on my back and this swirling blue gem! To top it off I'm In some abandoned dwelling and I'm awfully befuddled.

Hopefully, I'll be able to figure it out right?

Starting Equipment: I wear what appears to be some kinda long heavily embroidered silk clothes. Gold and black overall and quite fine and expensive looking. I have a rather goofy looking hat like that of witches and my shoes are seemingly clogs of some sort!

I appear to be wearing some burgundy gloves skintight but not fingerless and they feel...rather nice as well. Expensive I think?

I have a cracked looking oval blue gemstone in my hand. It feels really...fuzzy when I touch it. My mind shakes almost and I just feel...overwhelmed and good when I touch it.

Last, by not least I have some oval glasses on my brow though the corner of one lens is cracked.

I feel as if it is important and I should...well like I should never let it go. It just...I should listen to it...It feels like its guiding or well it seems to almost whisper. I just have a good feeling about it.

Best Skill: Honestly I don't know...what do you think? I like to think I'm an intellectual deep down.
Worst Skill: Spotting...I noticed I am a particularly unperceptive lass.
Racial Ability: I'm smarter than the average concept of a zombie that is vaguely floating through my mind.
