I'm sure you know how this thread works =] Have fun.

Good to finally get things rolling. Like I said in the thread, if anyone would like to speak to Baal, feel free. Given his wrinkly exterior, he'll probably be one of the least threatening people there. Other than that, if Lauriel agrees, we should have a round of introductions before we get started with planning our escape.

Speaking of, if we prisoners would like to discuss our plans without fear of the hunters peeking in, I've got a forum section we can use. Maps, plans, and general communications can go there so we know everyone will be on the same page. We'll have to do it all IC as well, of course, but just somewhere to keep track of everything so we don't get lost. But again, only if it's okay with the Count.

Hunters can have a section too, if you'd like. I promise I won't sneak any peeks of your plans.

If anyone is interested, drop by http://s7.zetaboards.com/Scribes_Corner/index/ and we can see what we can come up with. (Blatant self advertisemant over with )

Thanks.

That's an excellent idea, as always, darkom.

I'd love a way to do this without the other side knowing, that sounds very interesting! However, it might pose issues as to us actually finding each other, no?

I'm on both sides too, as is Broken-Scale, however I'm sure we can both keep our lips sealed.

Well, the way it works is our discussion forums would be password locked, so only the people with their side's respective passes could view the threads. The IC thread is still open here, so both sides could view what's going on there, but future plans would be hidden. Also, we could leave out certain vital facts to prevent the other side from knowing, but assume that our characters spoke of it during a timeskip. Like a "You know the plan?" situation.

The whole idea is that the other side doesn't know our every move. They can, however, follow us, to a realistic extent. Obviously they'll be close enough to follow our physical tracks; it's hard not to leave footprints in the mud, afterall. They'll also have native sightings to go off of, as word of foreigners tromping through the swamp should spread fast. No, the hunters should have no problem following the prisoners, unless we pull some of the tricks out of our sleeves (I have a few in mind already). The prisoners main weapon will be their speed and head start; our only hope will be to just stay as far ahead of the hunters as possible until we reach Morrowind. We can throw them off the trail and whatnot to slow them down, but lose them entirely? Not likely. No, it should be an exciting chase all the way to the northern border.

And as to the people with characters on both sides, I think they can handle not giving away the other side's secrets. If you two submit ideas though, you'll have to do so fairly. You can't, for example, learn that the prisoners will be heading off to a certain town, then go to the hunters and say, "Hey, let's go to this random town for no real reason." Of course, I wouldn't expect that from either of you, so we should be fine.

I like the idea. Can the hunters use the same website?

I suppose can no longer apply for this RP, then?

The thing is only four IC posts in so far so it's not impossible =] I think Count may be on later or tomorrow.

You have ten prisoners and only six bounty hunters. Were I allowed to still join, would it be possible to make my character a prisoner?

It is a fantastic idea darkom. We would have to make sure both the hunters and the prisoners have leadership. As it stands the prisoners have a much more vocal presence and I'm concerned that the bounty hunters will try to lone wolf it. There need to be a gm on their side that is dedicated to finding the prisoners.

Also, the bar I work at has internet! Smart phones FTW.

Should us bounty hunters wait a bit before making a post?

I'm waiting on a opening post before I get started.

I don't see why. I'm going to post later on this afternoon, even if no one else has.

I was feeling the same way about waiting on the prisoners to post for some reason, but it makes little sense to wait. I'm going to start writing a post.

Darkom, I love the way you seem to be dedicating yourself to this RP It's things like those that keep them alive and moving! Yours sounds like a good idea, as long as I can still follow their side of the story It's just something that I like to do...

Going to check out the IC thread now and see how it's been going. Also going to see the CS's and check out the groups issue.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to post tonight, since it's late and Im tired.... Being that I am on holidays, I have most of the day occupied, so my presence for now should be pretty low. I apologize, and promiss that in the future I will be active!

Thanks everyone, I thought it might make it a bit easier on us. And yes, Acrb, I can make a hunter section as well.

And I agree on the subject of the Hunters' leadership. You guys either need to decide on your groups amongst yourselves or ask Lauriel to split you up. Speaking of, I wouldn't wait for an OP post if I were you; though, it would be nice of our gracious host to make one. Don't want you hunters falling behind, afterall.

Anyway, I'll reply to you tomorrow, Uglius. For now I have to get some sleep.

PS Cutie, did you have a person in mind for who you grabbed on to? I assume it's not me or Uglius, as we're a few steps away, but if you want someone to respond to that I'd at least give a description of who you latched onto. An interesting way to meet someone, that's for sure.

Dangit! I'm new to RP so I wanted to try this out only to be far too late. Curse my sense of time!

How long do you think it would take to travel from Bravil to Blackrose on horseback?

IC we can discuss leadership once we arrive at Blackrose and receive our briefing. Once we get introductions out of the way and our character's personalities are portrayed, a leader should emerge.

I'd say a week, at least.

I need to edit my post, then. I have no sense of time, forgive me!

Excellent idea, as always Darkom :) I joined, but my Messenger is acting all demented so I can't confirm my account! >:[


Ell Oh Ell!

Just so y'all know -- I can hardly make a post on Sunday's. I'm always busy then with church, and sometimes, the youth and I go somewhere after, like a panty raid for example. to some place somewhere.

Who's ViewedCloth?

I dunno Did he talk with Count Lauriel?
