Valton: The New Hold, OOC & Sign-Up Thread #XV

Post » Fri May 04, 2012 6:19 pm

May aswell throw my two pence in here..

I can understand Khagra punching the guard captain, it's probably not the best idea but i can see why it's done RP-wise, and for that they'd likely get arrested/punished/whatever.
But the castration of the guard seems.. frankly, an evil deed.
Commiting voilence on someone is one thing, lets face it most of our characters have some violient tendancies in one way or another. But castrating someone? Thats a whole different thing, thats something i'd consider unforgivable.

I think the castrated guard would beg to differ...

He can just get married to a spriggan and go do the hopskotch with a load of imps in the woods.

On another note, I am going on holiday on monday and I have planned to be away for about 12 days. I won't bring my laptop but I will bring my phone and I am sure that I can borrow a computer at the house I am staying at. I might not be able to be online every day, though.

(not a beat Vincent McCool over the head because he does one thing and says the other- mood)

What is actually wrong with you?

That's it, I've had enough. I cannot continue helping GMing a RP with someone as petulant, childish and completely resistant to all criticism as this. I've got far to much going on in my life right now to be spending hours every day trying to help organise something like this to receive petty, childish insults from someone with a basic lack of respect for other people. Everyone in this RP has been cordial and friendly, and whenever we've had any problems we've worked it out here. But the amount of stress and effort it is taking now, and the sheer about of rudeness I am having to take every day, is simply not worth it. I'm not kicking anyone out of anything, you can have it. Enjoy.

I'm out. Just say Fiona got eaten by vampires or something. I don't care.

Woah man, it was just a joke. If you want me to I'll just edit that post. But yeah, I was just defending (or debating) before.

No need to leave or anything. You're greatly valued here, from what I've learned. And I think I speak for most when
I say that most people think you're doing an awesome job at organising us munchkins. Especially for how we react.

As well, I should say that I really like how you give me all these constructive criticisms, it really improves my skill at roleplaying.
I probably can appear a bit ungrateful or mad or anarchaic at times, however that's just my really, really odd way about doing things.
I've never meant to offend you. Actually the only thing that I can get angry at you about is sometimes using threats to enforce an opinion.

Otherwise you are one of the best advisors or mentors to have around. Your compliments you make to people are extremely appreciated.
So don't go! as only a super rabbit with the brain of Steven Hawkins could do what you do. And we really don't have the funds to do that. :dead:

I don't think so, Vincent. There's one person on the wrong here. It's that simple. Daroska, Vincent said many posts ago that you had to edit your post to avoid this mess. That's all there is to do here, no more arguing. Then let's move on with a new positive attitude and try again, huh?

No one needs to leave.

Edit:


Oh, and I'd leave if Vincent left over this. There, now you can't leave :wink:

Ahem, for my stupidity and madness in these matters, I've made my RP post more acceptable for review.
Please excuse my prior comments as they were simply trying to defend an idea that wouldn't work.
I shall eliminate them to show that the view is now gone and I have now submitted to a reasonable point.

Thank you for that, Daroska.

The GMs shall review it but I see the punch is still there, which I believe was part of the problem. Just letting you know in case you missed that.

EDIT: Oh, and could we keep the drama in the RP thread and not in the OOC thread in the future? :)

The punch is reaching out in motion and looks to hit. But, that's from Urgoc's viewpoint. Gavril could well have his captain slightly dodge it.

So Gavril may get his dunmer to now respond in whatever way he wants to. :touched:

Alright, as long as you don't care about what happens to him, because randomly punching the captain of the guard might be his last action in this RP. Then I guess Urgoc stays out of it to see the Jarl later. Is that what you're thinking?

Still, I'd suggest keeping all physical violence out if there was no agreed outcome by all parties.

Ah, man. Apology accepted. Sorry for blowing my top. This is a very stressful time of my life, matters outside of RPland. Both me and Gorbad take out A LOT of our time to try and help this silly little RP going. Most of the time it is a complete pleasure :P.

As regards the orc castration thing, I thought the rest was fine, just that was a bit over the top, and it seemed like you were causing trouble on purpose. If your intention is to get them all put in prison then fair enough, but I can't see this ending well XD.

No-one is leaving the RP because of me. Lately I haven't had enough time to keep up with writing characters but I still wanna help out best I can. Let's say for the moment that Fiona hasn't been eaten by Vampires after all.

You know what I'm surprised about? that no one got the reference to that:

Khagra - Kha(l). One of Khal Drogo (GoT/F&I) famous quotes "No."

But yes! let's all dance around the fire and sing good old http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np6vAuS0KNs.

:facepalm:
Asap and I were just discussing GoT and I even stole a tiny bit of it. Now, if Khagra had been of the Alik'r Redguards then I probably would've gotten it pretty quickly, the Alik'r Redguards being nomadic and desert people and all. (Yes, I know the Dothraki are more a Steppe people like the Mongols and Huns)

Name: Saron Valor

Age: 25

Race: Half Nord, half Imperial

Gender:Male

Height: 6,0

Birthsign: the steed

Appearance: blond hair, six feet tall, whitish skin not exactly tan but not paper white either, dark blue eyes,
muscular enough to wield a two handed battle ax, heavy armor and not stumble or fall over.

Class (what would you describe your character as?): warrior

Skills and known spells (if any): only one spell lightning bolt, taught by an old mentor(will explain in background),
able to smith steel,iron, and dwarven armor and weapons, VERY powerful with a one handed war axe, strong enough to lift trees for wood or to assist in building things.

Clothing / armor: wearing normal clothes not any armor but if need be able to wear any armor

Weapons: carrying one steel war axe on his back, put away, not concealed but able to be pulled out if need be

Miscellaneous items: carrying only one gold ring of unknown effect seemingly magical

Personality: very passive, thick-skinned, not easy to anger but once angered difficult to calm down, will mostly laugh and call people stupid when they are being stupid

Major flaw: has trouble sleeping, searching for something in desperation (explained in background)

Background: a younger stronger male with a Nord father and Imperial mother. He is cursed to constantly wear a gold ring which causes him to turn into a werewolf when he becomes truly angry. Only a extreme rage will cause him to turn into the beast. He is searching for a cure across all of nirn( if you didn't know the planet the elder scrolls takes place on) in just a few years of life he has traveled all of Cyrodiil. He is trying to find Argonians from black marsh OR Khajiit from Elsweyr to learn about were-gators and were-lions. His search has brought him to the evolving hold of Valton. The old mentor I mentioned earlier was just that, whilst learning combat of heavy armor and war axes his mentor passed one thing to just Saron. the knowledge of lightning, it isn't a very powerful spell but it has saved him on multiple occasions. He is very combat oriented from his experience as a wanderer, dealing with bandits and on one occasion a dragon which he may or may not talk about.Would be use full as an assistant of anyone but more so to a builder or constructor, or a guard instructor possibly a watch captain possibly even the jarl's personal guard (though im sure he wont trust some stranger) but i already know these are taken but from what im reading may or may not be open soon.
Well right now the RP doesn't need any more mercenary / warrior type characters. If the captain of the guard position becomes empty, then there's a possibility that this sheet will be accepted to that position. But you need to discuss this with Gavril and ask him if he's going to open up the spot or not. As for being someone's specific protector, you need to discuss that with the player who controls the character. I can't voice their opinion of the matter :smile:

Just a reminder: This RP is quite active, and posting three posts in half a year is too slow for it. Preferably you should be online once each day to check on the RP. :biggrin:





Important heads-up:
-
During the afternoon of Valton RP-time, dark clouds will sweep over Valton. It's going to be raining, it's going to be dark.

Hmmm. I'll get right onto a Jormaw post, Roymund. Sorry for the hold up.

Oh and I've been thinking, guys- I'd like to have someone be around the argonian a little more.
No! not that, you dirty horsefeed. Get your minds out of Jacqueline's bucket and fish me an apple while you're there.
Heh, no really, it'd be nice if we could have someone else set up an outcast character for the saxhleel to click instantly with: [Like +1]

Acting as something new to the RP. Maybe a vagrant, a gondolier or something! Wabbajack!

Heh, the Daroska relief effort has come to help Roymund in his stagnation! :tongue:

By the way, Mhund, you might of noticed that Jormaw ignored Roymund's query concerning his shack.
This is all in character. As Jormaw was quite bewildered by the sight of another argonian in this new land. :turned:

And Itan-Ru is a bit bewildered at meeting another argonian who's pretty much straight out of the Marsh! There could definitely be some good chances for character building between Jormaw, Sae-Kas, and Itan-Ru.

Offtopic: argh, I really want to start my RP! :P

I'm wondering how much longer Nellis should stay at the farm. I feel like he and Alguidar would have some work to do. But I'm happy to continue the conversation between them for as long as you want Smig.
