((You know, I am frankly surprised we haven't seen ANYTHING happening in (Redacted to protect the interests of my nextcharacter). Honestly. Its kind of sad. Extortion sounds interesting but are you really sure you want to do that in Elbreth? We do not have a good track record of being anything but cruel to criminals...))

Protecting merchants for pay is a crime? Since when?

((Why is it that immediately after I come up with a plan that requires the sea to be cleansed of pirates the sea is filled with pirates?))

((I'm a perfectly businessman-like pirate though ^.^ Sword for hire is better for all involved! We get paid, you get extra forces AND a scapegoat when things go south))

So what's the best way to make ducats?

[Taricus]

((LOOTING NOBLES!!))

[Elfeater]

((so will I be executed for extorting merchants?))

[Taricus]

((Not if you pay the king ))

((so will I be executed for extorting merchants?))

((You -did- just stab some merchant to death.
I'm guessing Iiteum's gonna handle the rolls for my action, so I'm just waitin'. ))

Pay off corrupt guards with 1/10 of my earnings

OOC:
Sorry, I've been dealing with some other stuff so no IC posting yet.

King Erik is an honorable sort. This is well known: King William was a departure from the line of Elbreth's Kings in that he didn't really do anything at all...he was kind of ineffective. King Erik takes after his grandfather, who was also a bit of a departure from the line, but was honorable and did try to keep his kingdom in order. You're probably better off not letting him know about your extortion. Now, corrupt guards? Maybe you could bribe them.

Ashton: There is a post wayyyy back (and maybe edited into the OP) about magic and stuff. You should read it, and then post a detailed list of your powers, abilities, backstory, etc. for the Iituem and the Co-GMs (myself and Ghazkull) to vote on/balance (with the input of the other players, usually). We're very wary of supernatural characters, and so they need to be given the OK before they can be played. In some instances they can be pretty fun, the recent Shadeling incursions into the Highlands are an example of that, but in many situations they have far too much room for abuse or other shenanigans that detract from the game as a whole.

Brackets are used for Out Of Character speech. I sometimes use them, sometimes I just denote OOC: and then separate from IC with a line. Other people use just, like, just () or [] or whatever. You can do whatever you want in that regard, for the most part.

It's nice to wake up to around 10 pages of posts here again. Replies and rolls in a little bit.

OOC:

Well I looked through the first 13 pages and the OP but couldn't find the post on magic you mentioned but here's the character details you asked for:

Backstory
A fledgling flame demon was summoned to the surface in 304b by a training magician, due to a flaw in the spell Excalibur (The demon) escaped after killing the young wizard, his mentor tracked the demon and after three weeks found the demon and to render him weak trapped him in the body of a pigeon which caused Excalibur to lose all his magical abilities and physical strength, just before escaping the pigeon pecked out the wizards eyes, this would become his signature move.

Powers
Immune to aging
This is just so the demon doesn't drop dead after old age way to soon in the game.

Abilities
Writing
Excalibur quickly worked out how to communicate through writing, hence he always has tied to his legs paper and a stick of charcoal.
Flight
As a pigeon Excalibur can fly moving from place to place quickly and also escape battle normally unless injured.
Beak
With practice Excalibur has become fairly nimble with his beak, he can can tie knots and carry small objects around with him. His crafting ability extends as far as simple rope mechanisms though is limited by his weak physical strength.

((It dosen't seem too OP but Excalibur was mentioned in adwarf's OP character. It was a sword back then. I really don't have many problems with your character, except for being a demon. That seems overpowering even if its lacking in power. Also I don't see how a pigeon's going to converse with anyone else. Course I'm not the GM so just go ignore me.))
