I have been waiting for Groin to reply to it, because it seems like he should be the one to continue in order for the stroy to continue smoothly...

In the immortal words of Samwise Gamgee: "Well, I'm back."

Ya’ll certainly don’t need me to make this RPG run smoothly; I absolutely love the new posts. They may be few, but each and every one of them are really filled with substance that will draw us to a climactic battle in the very near future.

I'm glad to see that we have some new posts in the RPG thread, excellent posts too!

I'll get my post in sometime tomorrow, and yes I will answer you Thinlomien!

I think we would be wise to discuss plans a bit before we reach the battle climax. I wouldn't want Kuric to do something would cause other take exception. My inital plan was to have Kuric feel the deep need to redeem himself for forgetting and forsaking his mission and trying to save the defenders but dying in the process. Of course, he would take out a few wargs first...assuming there are more than one.

If you want to do that, it would work.

I don't think we should encounter more than a couple of wargs, though, or otherwise we have to make our characters die and lose the battle, unless they use some cunning master plan. A group of five civilians, one of whom is a mere child, and two warriors doesn't stand a chance against a big group of wargs. I think six is a definite maximum, but that would require heroic deeds from both our warriors and very good luck in both staing alive and killing monsters for our civilian's part.

Will someone else die? I have nothing against killing Leanora per se, but it would probably be too grim considering the current tone of the RPG*. And there are some characters who deffinitely shouldn't die, such as Orin.

I hope no one feels like I'm nannying them if I say this, but I would like to ask anyone to stay within the boundaries of realism when the battle comes and make their characters fare according to their skills and not make them superheroes...

*it just occured to me that I want to make a very dark and grim RPG some time...

If you kill Leanora, I'll kill... wait, no, I wont, but still...

You can't kill Leanora.

I saved that spot because I think I see a fun opportunity for Kuric to be hasty and not think things through very well.

I posted. I hope it works. It's still fairly open what could happen.
