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

Sounds good.

Radwulf might be a broken man at this point of the RP, making him distinctively different than he was during chapter 1. Might give the RP a little freshness. At the same time, I believe Radwulf needs a new Steward, someone to keep most things in the town flowing. Anyone up for the task? If not, then Radwulf will simply have to do all the stuff alone, until he finds a capable Steward.

Can't wait to re-visit Shimmermist Mine! That inner chamber still has grand secrets to reveal...

Alright!

Unless someone else really wants to, I could do some re-reading tomorrow to get an overview of where all the characters left off, then we can figure out how the different situations ended during the timeskip and who left.

Sounds good to me.

By the way, this is open to any newcomers. Since we're rebooting this, there won't be too much to take in.

Here's a http://i1050.photobucket.com/albums/s405/Smigh/ValtonMain2013042100_edited_exported.jpg, for reference (I only kept the essential labels from the last chapter). Valton in the RP should be thought of as being bigger but this will give you an idea of where things are in relation to each other.

Edit: I've also updated the http://valtonthenewhold.wikia.com/wiki/Valton,_The_New_Hold._Wiki (add the link on the OP).

...and that's what brought me here, I'm still listed as an admin over there (in fact it might only be Gorbad and I who are). So Valton is rising once more is it?

I haven't come across anything I couldn't do but add me up to the admins, just in case. Then I'm sure I can deface it even better!

Yup. I believe I am. I've looked around and there are a few things that can come in handy, like deleting pages.

The RP stopped during the morning after the mystical fire in Valton. The current date is Fredas 21st of Last Seed. This list does not include characters that only made one post, was inactive for a significant amount of time or never got involved in the RP.

The list goes from most recent character entry (Gorbad) and back in time.




Gorbad the smith (GorbadPS3): Sleeping in late the day after the fire. Alone in his house.

Roymund the hunter (Mhund): Slayed a wolf in self defense by the Mistfall Rapids where he was keeping Jormaw the fisherman safe. After the attack he abandoned Jormaw in the night and ran for Alguidar’s farm. Alone in the woods somewhere between Mistfall Rapids and Alguidar’s farm.

Julius Scipion (Magus the Red): After the fire was put out he went home, enjoyed a good book and some wine, and went to bed. Alone in his house.

Greorn (Gavril): after the fire he went back to his rented room at Hela’s Folly and went to sleep. Alone in his room.

Celegth (Tausig2): on the evening of the fire, his last actions were getting the deed for a house and discussing a rented mercenary’s payment. Alone with an NPC(?) mercenary outside the keep.

Itan-Ru the priest (Glass Argonian): after helping Gorbad with his injured arm they talked about having the smith build a metal altar for the chapel. Gorbad suggested a mason for the work and left. Itan-Ru has not done anything since Gorbad left. Alone in the chapel.

Theseus (disturbing): Woken up by the sounds of people putting out the fire, he runs out in the streets shirtless with sword in hand. After scaring Sarynetta and getting told off by her for walking around half naked he suggests continuing the discussion inside. (Perhaps the weather is a bit too nippy for him ). Standing outside Hela’s Folly with Sarynetta.

Leandra (Person from Anticlere): casually strolling down the street towards the burning building that had just been put out. Alone in the street.

Uldar (TheLoneRanger): After verbally tearing Leandra a new one for dropping his bag on the ground he used a soul gem to freshen himself up a bit and regain his strength. Together with Ra Tara and Leandra in the street outside Hela’s Folly.

Alguidar (Smig) and Jacqueline (AyumiFan): on the evening of the fire they are alone at the farmhouse. Jacqueline has just told Alguidar about the creature named Grief (a beast from Breton folklore) that has followed her to Alguidar’s farm and is causing trouble by killing his cattle. Though skeptic at first, Alguidar believes Jacqueline’s story and agrees that they have to settle the dispute between him and Jormaw. Together with Jacqueline in the farmhouse.

Sarynetta (AyumiFan): scolding Theseus for not wearing a shirt when it is cold outside. Outside Hela’s Folly with Theseus.

J’Shar (Athell): observing the burning building from a safe distance. By the burning building.

Ra Tara (Athell): standing with Uldar in the street outside Hela’s Folly.

Brill Four-Fingers (Smig): after giving the guards orders, he brings an NPC guard with him to the hotsprings and use buckets to throw water from the hotspring onto the burning building. Alone with an NPC guard by the hotsprings.

Sae-Kas (Glass Argonian): having a drink and a telepathic chat with Uldar and J’Shar inside Hela’s Folly right before the fire starts. In Hela’s Folly surrounded by patrons.

Alavesa (Captainrex): walked from the keep to her new house and went to bed. Alone in her house.

Titus (Prisoner Six): Patrolling the road leading past Alguidar’s farm. Alone with two NPC guards.

Roscoe the Butcher (PolishGamer): in the early evening he delivers some fine cuts of meat to Sarynetta. In Hela’s Folly surrounded by patrons.

Jormaw (Daroska): out by the Mistfall Rapids with Roymund to guard him in the evening. Fantasizing about the beautiful Tinker-Watch that stole his heart. Together with Roymund by the river.

Trannigan (Trannigan): After notifying the patrons at Hela’s Folly about the wolf sightings that day he patrols the area around Valton in search of wolves. Alone outside Valton.

Nellis Nelsh (Kalamari): having a nice chat with Leandra at Hela’s Folly in the early evening. At Hela’s Folly surrounded by patrons.

Garrett (Stoic Guardian): got a free apple and some mead from Sarynetta for being honest. In Hela’s Folly surrounded by patrons.

Roland Orelius (M2H24): sitting at a table at Hela’s Folly, waiting for a drink.

Daikanos (Gavril): Walking into the sunset, leaving Valton behind. Alone on the road to Morrowind.

Danus Maximus (What is that! Your mom): Talking to Sarynetta in the late afternoon at Hela’s Folly.

I see. Now since I won't be using Danus again, any idea on how I should write him off?

One idea tha tcould go for a lot of characters here is that they could decide to journey on to another city after realising that Valton was not the right place for them after all. Maybe they didn't feel quite at home there or they could not find a proper market for their profession.

That. Or we can just assume that they left for some reason during the course of a month and if they ever want to come back, they can make up an explanation. No need to post to write them off unless absolutely necessary.

Edit: It seems the main thing is decide what changed with that fire and we're all set.

Edit2: Valton's community owes you one, Ayumi. Especially Kalamari...

I see. I'll probably have Danus recalled back to Solitude shortly after the conversation with that Dwemer woman or before the "fire". Speaking of which, can anyone describe me what happened during the fire?

Man, I totally thought you were telling me there was a Dwemer woman in the RP

About the fire, I only remember the mercenaries' house being on fire. There were more things planned but I don't think we got there.

People did their best putting the flames out but whatever they did was not very effective. After a short while the flames died out on their own, almost as if they were... magical! After the fire most people went to bed.

By the way, as another of the GMs for this RP, I second (third?) the motion that Kalamari has to play Nellis, and that he's not dying. If he thinks his old posts about Nellis svcks, he can [censored] write better ones.

That settles it then, I'm adding Nellis to the wiki. As you know, that's legally binding.


A new Inn as in a new Inn, or just an extension to Helas Foly? If it's a new one, what happens to Helas Foly?

I don't think it would be worth the trouble of making an extention to Hela's Folly. It would be much easier to build over the guild house ruins and expand the building.

Someone talked about turning the old Hela's Folly into some sort of thieves den or something.

About Alguidar and Brill, these are the main changes I'm thinking:

- Alguidar and Jack delivered a gift to Jormaw. He eventually disappeared and the wolf attacks stopped. Alguidar is convinced that Grief was satisfied with the offer.
- Alguidar and Roymund had a few more arguments about the civil war. One day Roymund left without notice.
- Brill got promoted to Captain of the Guard, for his service during the fire in Daikanos' absence.

Yuppety yupp.

Meaning, yes.


Also, Valton without Nellis wouldn't be the same. Nellis is Wanted, dead or alive. Prefered alive, but I'm sure the court-mage could resurrect him should the first option be necessary.
