Assassin RP idea

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 8:04 am

As some of you may know, I once upon a time hosted the ImmortalBlood timeline RP of Siege of Sentinel (SoS). Since then the members of the RP have kidnapped my family and black mailed me into posting in the RP where i havn't hosted the RP a single time since. With vacations coming about due to thanks giving and school work being more demanding the RP which i've been held hostage to RP in has slowed down a bit. So while the kidnappers are a bit busy I thought of hosting an RP based on the assassin's world. The rivalry between Dark Brotherhood and Morag Tong always seemed interesting to me.

The basic story of the RP is based on one of my character's experiences while in the Morag Tong who I have in SoS. Without getting into specifics because of him the Cheydinhal DB Sanctuary was destroyed along with many of the members in it being killed. Serosi now journeys toward Leyawiin possibly to get a ship that takes him back to Morrowind. You can RP a Darkbrotherhood member that was part of the Cheydinhal Sanctuary but was not present when it was destroyed, or a DB member we pick up along the way. As a Morag Tong you could be someone we pick up along the way or that is tailing Serosi.

Basically the RP will move in two large groups. One DB the other MT all the while setting up ambushes, or ways to kill members of the other group. It would be done in "PvP" style and I will be managing it. I think i'm pretty good as managing "PvP" as i've done it for quite a while now. Expect characters to die but because of the way the RP moves along (from Cheydinhal, to the Imperial City maybe, then Bravil, Leyawiin and so on and so forth) we can always pick up new members and new people can join in very easily.

I really want to tap into that assassin feel, a dark paranoia, that tense moment before the action. The focus would be adventure, character development and fighting.

This looks pretty interesting. The DB trying to get revenge on Serosi, starting a whole underground war between the DB and MT. I would join.

Well that isn't what started it. They've hated each other since one broke away from the other. It would just be continued. On a side note, some of the Morag Tong are also not too pleased with Serosi.

I'll post the RP tomorrow if i can. Some basic rules to keep in mind:

1. I'm looking for unique characters with unique abilities. I'd rather not see carbon copies of one another. Have your character have a speciality about him/her.

2. DO NOT control other people's characters. You control your actions, they control how they react to them.

3. Limit OOC posts. I'd say OOC posts are only allowed with an IC post.

4. Make detailed and grammatically correct posts. Though this RP is a bit more laid back then SoS i don't want to see one liners. Though this RP is based alot on action, action alone is boring to read.

5. Don't pull an "assassin's creed" and have your character wear his or her weapons on the ouside making it obvious they are an assassin. Someone dressed like a merchant, a farmer or even a drunk will have a better disguise in a crowd of people than the "super awesome cool mysterious looking guy decked out in black with super duper cool awesome dual mega swords."
