Valton: The New Hold, OOC & Sign-Up thread #XI

IMO guards should do what they do in Majesty: A Fantasy Kingdom Sim. I.e. stick to the town for the most part, guard the peasants and the tax collector from being waylaid by giant rats and die when attacked by a troll to make the questing heroes seem more heroic. Of course it makes no sense for the town guard not to be involved when clearing out a den of ordinary bandits disturbing the peace, given that's what they're for, but the more supernatural of menaces - which there are plenty of in Tamriel - are traditionally the province of the random wandering adventurer.

The golden middle-way that is. Sounds good.

WITYM, Varyn never really boasted about the Telvanni or Morrowind. Pretty much everything he said was an insult to the Imperials and the empire. He know's his homeland is nothing but an ashtray now, and he doesn't care either. :P

I know but In Danus's view, he thinks that the Dunmer is bashing the Imperials but seems to think that Morrowind is great.

Eh, guess you have a point. It'll be funny when Danus finds out Varyn doesn't give a [censored] about Morrowind. :P

To those who know they have business to do before night-time, please tell so here in the OOC thread.

I think I tied all loose ends in my last post so there's only the current interaction with Jacqueline before Alguidar calls it a day.

Why haven't Alguidar and Roymund kissed yet?

Also Theseus and Itan Ru have to *ahem* talk about some things.

No he already knows about that. He has been traveling Skyrim for a better part of a year.

Think I might bring Rithe in for a cameo appearance. Something to do with Varyn's brother probably. It wont be for a while, but it will be rather interesting. ;)

It's funny how much dunmer and argonians hate each other. They're both isolationist, absent minded, tribes of political gain or ancestor reverance.
But ahh.. this reminds me of the dwemer. The kingdom of Resdayn was only forged by a war friendship between Dumac the Dwarf-King and Nerevar.
Otherwise the two groups went into bickerment, distrust, even hatred at times. Such a culmination would end up in a whole race becoming disappeared.

If only argonians and dunmer saw each others similarities, not differences, they could get along pretty well. Jormaw could have been friends with Varyn, even.

If only another Nerevar could rise, reunite Morrowind and lead it to new alliances...

Oh.

Anyways I am back from my holiday now. Full time GM again. Expect some more plot mischief v soon.

Is there another Helas Folly?

Because Helas Folly and Valton are far from each other and people are talking as if there in the same place.

Oh I see, you got it confused with http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Hela%27s_Folly. Hela's Folly is the name of the tavern/inn in Valton.

You're thinking of the Shipwreck, this is the Inn named after the shipwreck. :thumbsup:

You only really need to read the last two or three pages to be honest. That should get you up to speed.

When a mommy-Nord and a daddy-Nord love each other very, very much they wrestle. In bed. Naked. And Talos thinks they are such good wrestlers that he gives them a baby as a reward for their performance and skill. Now go chop some firewood, lass.
