You are Peasant
« on: January 26, 2012, 11:05:10 pm »

You are a peasant, a commoner who lives under the protection of Lord Garant, the simple thatch roof over your head is worn, but it is perfect for your small hovel. A small trickle of water drips through the roof from the pounding rain outside, and into a bucket, but that isn't what is worrying you the most. At the moment you can't seem to remember anything about yourself, your name, gender, or job, all of it seems to be evading you no matter how hard you try to figure it out. Then suddenly voices begin to talk in your head, asking questions of all sorts, and you feel the answers coming back to you.

What is your name?
What is your gender?
What where your Father's Profession?
What where your Mother's Profession?
Which town do you live in?
A) Summerdale
B)Stone Grate
C) Sand Sheath
What was your hobby as a child?

You are Peasant ~ Welcome to Sand Sheath
« Reply #5 on: January 27, 2012, 03:36:42 pm »

It all came rushing back to you, as fast as the next drop of water falls into the bucket, your name is Fadwar Fergusson, the fifth son of Tarn Fergusson, and son of Tilia Fergusson. Your father is a town guardsmen over in Water Shell, and your Mother runs the farm while he is out on patrol, and such. You remember those long days where you spent all your time playing with your friends, pretending you were warrior monks, or knights, and fighting each other with sticks, and wooden pot lids. All the times you, and your friends had slunk through the  shade of the apple trees to steal some of Old Granny Jolin's Apple Pies, then you remembered all the times you got chased away, and that one time where their dog had bitten your arm.

Standing up you peer out the window near your bed, the only one in the entire house as glass was growing more expensive by the week. Out side the rain is pouring down into the street, and the parts of the road not paved were already muddy puddles of water that had begun spreading across the road. No people were out at this hour, and the only lights are those few wooden poles holding enclosed lanterns, and the watch fires coming from the stone wall in the distance. Turning back around you take a look upon your house once again, it was a tiny hovel with the fireplace over against the far side only about fifteen paces away, the small stone basin you used as a bath hidden away in the corner, and covered by a wooden separator, and the chest, and dresser that contained all your earthly possessions.

A small fire glows in the stone fire place, and gives off faint a very faint sense of heat, and light that seems to fill the entire hovel. This place was your new home, Sand Sheath, a rather large town that prospered on the trading of silk, spices, and glass, but it was also prey to endless raids, attacks, and sieges from all nations, and bandit groups as they seek to take this places riches. But that wasn't important, what was where the three letters upon the mantle of the fireplace, the first was from your father, the second your first brother, and the last ... who had sent you that letter?

Who sent you the third letter?
A)Your Best Friend
B)The Local Blacksmith
C)The Recruitment Officer
D)Some other person

You are Peasant ~ Drunken Night, and A Rather Hard Choice ~
« Reply #13 on: January 28, 2012, 12:25:52 pm »

Just as before the memory slips back into your mind like a drop of water splashing against the floor, it was sent by Shisal Kikam the Recruitment Officer of this town, and Captain of the 7th Scout Division 'Hunters of Eagles'. It has been six month since you asked if their where any spaces open in the Scouts, or Town Guards, apparently it takes six months to check, but he has finally got back to you after all this time. With the memory back in your mind you go, and open the letter to read its contents



Fadwar my friend, forgive me for the long waiting period, but all those divisions with openings have been out for awhile now, but I finnally have something that might interest you. It seems The First Of The Sand have several positions that need filling, but I must warn you their members either die in the first month, come out heavily wounded, or come out as one of The First. If you still wish to take the job come meet me tonight at the 'Mirage of Telki'.
       
      ~ Shisal Kikam ~



With that read you throw the letter back onto the mantle, and hastily dress, you put on a light grey shirt, and baggy tan pants. You even tie your Ctinka around your head, and head towards the door. Just as you are about to step outside you see the shape of your quarterstaff in the corner of your eye, and grab it before marching out of the door. With that you go strolling down the street, but you stick to the shadows wary of the thieves that stalk the night. After several minutes you find yourself infront of a three story building, nearly fifty paces long, and the same in its width the sign hanging from it marks it as the 'Mirage of Telki'. The building's stonework is delicate, and beautiful, but you barely give it a glance as you stride through the door.

Inside you are assaulted by dozens of new voices, sounds, and smells, it takes you several seconds to recover, but when you do you spot Shisal sitting in the back in a relatively dark corner while the rest of the patrons give him a wide berth. You stride through the crowd ignoring everything, but where you are going, and as you reach the table, and take a seat you can already hear Shisal saying, "Well you have come my friend, have you decided to join, or not?" Well that was rather straightforward you meant to broach the subject slowly over drink, but now it seems you had to decided now. What do you tell him?
