Wanted to put some pressure on him and explore his character.

How nice of you.

Edit: I edited my post, adding Lycus' part after Illana's.

Out of interest who chose the Gray Blood Company and what does it actually mean?

Well, I asked if anyone had a name they'd like to use but got no response, so I made it up along with the thread. The basis of the name is Glen Cook's fictional Black Company, which is in turn based on the historical White Company in Italy, I believe. I chose gray because we're a neutral faction, and the blood is to represent us being a family of sorts. Not to mention I thought it sounded pretty cool.

I think everyone should just get out of the fort so they can intercept a Khajiit scout a few feet away.

Have we actually found the Altmer prisoner to interrogate? I'm thinking it would be better to just stumble across such an opening - It's not improbable that the Dominion doesn't know of a secondary opening, if it's down an easy-to-miss, or recently-unearthed passage. Especially if it's hidden in shadow.

Where are we in the RP anyway? Too much planning ahead and not enough doing will kill this RP quickly. I think the party should stop lollygagging and start running.

However we find the opening is fine, but people seem eager to kill some Thalmor in the dungeon, so I guess that's happening first. After that we'll find and leave through the second exit and then continue as planned towards Weye. We are currently just beginning to enter the dungeon, with half the group already down there and the other half finishing off the guards up above before joining them. The first party can find this exit and bust some heads, while the rest of us hold off the elves for a few minutes. Then we all bolt.

How long before the rest of the camp finds out about their jailbreak?

I'd say it should be soon now. The camp guards will be in any minute, and the main soldiers will be up and after us within about five or six. So whatever we do we need to do it fast and get a move on. We may not have time for extended torture sessions, sorry.

Anyway, post tonight hopefully, good work so far guys.

That's pretty interesting, I look foward to the IC discussion which decides that outcome to be our name.

I know that there are a lot of characters in the RP that enjoy killing, but it's not something like Darkom says, that we really have time for. Just keep running. Killing for fun can come in later threads

Glen Cook! My character is named after one of his. Will post tonight

[El Goose]

I may not be able to post tomorrow, as I am moving to a different city. And the house I am going to live in has no internet at the time. But who knows, I can find a way.

And which factions besides the Thalmor, the Empire and the Companions can e expect to see? Vigilants of Stendarr anynone? I doubt we have holy knights in our team.

Well, Fithvael is kind of a knight. He just gets hired out sometimes to do things, he doesn't LOOK for jobs that is. I think the Vigilants would be awesome to team up with, maybe go and raid a Daedric Shrine to Molag Bal in the Velothi Mountains.

[Ross Thomas]

Don't think the Vigilants of Stendarr would be a good idea to fully ally with. But then taking jobs from them or acting as support might be interesting if we can garner a small plot or story to it. Like attracting the attention of a few Werewolves or Vampires or something.

Or maybe wiping out a few of them along the way, the Vigilants, I mean. I know it's way too earlier to be musing about te future and etc, but it's a healthy thought. It would be interesting to do side missions for them.

Is he now? That's cool. Raiding Daedric shrines is almost never a good idea.

We could have some interesting plot twists later in the series, like a Deadric Price abducting us and placing us in their realm to play a game of survival for his amusemant, all for the sake of vengeance.

That would be a hell of a ride, wouldn't it? We know Daedra can use their own artifacts as a conduit to abduct mortals. So if any of us are going to steal an artifact of sorts, we would be connected to that Daedric Prince. I already had in mind something, but then again it strikes me as meh. Molag Bal or Hircine would be good, since the vigilants hate their respected creations.

[kiss my weasel]

I'll try and post tomorrow W&V so as not to keep Lycus waiting. Although sprinting off like that leaves Paige a bit vunerable.

Spoiler

[stevie trent]

I cant read the spoiler since i am on a crappy phone. I cant post today, so your good. Maybe not even tomorrow.

[Scarlet Devil]

Just a wink W&V. How about trapped in sanquines realm

[des lynam]

Just get a post in whenever you can, Werewolf. Until then, I know for a fact that anyone that was near me has a few things to reply to (Faendal's about-to-collapse determination being one, and Irish's anticlimactic entrance another). I believe the other party is still knocking Thalmor heads and looking for an exit; feel free to make up whatever you need for that, by the way. Whatever makes the escape more interesting.

Also, to Scow and Crimson, I apologize for the disappearance of all our characters, though I think there should be a few things you can talk about if you wanted to. Really, if you're feeling up for it, you could have your characters get together and chat. I'm sure the camp is abuzz with activity given the bloody stand we made; perhaps you can start the search for our little ragtag band. Whatever you'd like to do; I just feel bad that there's not much material for you guys to work with. That should change very soon though.

[JUan Martinez]

I'm will be waiting by the secret entrance out of the fortress (Not a great place to be resting at that moment)... unless Crimson's character is already somewhere?

[Je suis]

My character is to the west of the fort. Where is the secret exit located?

[Destinyscharm]

North at a small cave that leads directly to the Rumare shore.

Scow, if you'd like, I could be the one to bash you over the head and drag you to the Imperial city... you Thalmor dog! Don't worry, I'll be gentle.

On a more serious note, a bit of my group has entered the Fort, now I'm waiting for a few others. Hopefully once Werewolf posts (oh ya, you're welcome), I can get the group moving towards the secret entrance. Also, for the sake of excitement, we won't be taking some dinky cave to the edge of lake Rumare. Ya'll better put your running shoes on cause once we get through the secret exit/entrance out of the fort... we're going cross-country, open-ground! Yee-Haaa!!

Check that, everyone is in the fort. No one actively posting is still in the yard at the moment, excluding our two Aldmeri sentries. Once the little group by the door posts we can meet up with the others, then take the secret exit out to the northern tip of the peninsula we are currently on. From there, I think it would be best for us to all stick together. We can seperate a little bit, but I'd like to keep us all close enough to be able to interact with one another. We can maintain our groups, but they'll be close enough to talk to each other. And yes, once we make it outside we'll be running to the west, meeting up with Scow and Crimson, then heading for Weye.

[Chloé]

Oh wow... didn't see that. I think I may make a post in a bit to get the pot stirring, as well as take my place as de facto leader of Group #2

[Emily Rose]

Ok so.. its going to be above ground now this secret entrance? I figured it would make more sense to make it actually secret not..smack bang in the open.

[jessica breen]

Well, from the dungeon side it will be below the ground, leading to a cave, and the opposite exit of that cave will eventually put us above ground. In order to get there, though, we must go through the subterrenean passageway. As you said, the exit we eventually emerge from will be a small cave on the shore of the Rumare. Sorry for the confusion.

Also, is anyone waiting on someone else to post? If need be I can control someone just to keep things moving along. I'd hate to have a three day weekend go by with only a few posts.

[Matt Fletcher]

I'm waiting for the Orc fellow Ermac to post before I make anything more. Since Karzon found out the secret entrance.

[Dustin Brown]

I will try to squeeze a post in tonight, been busy with work and wenches.
