Formendacil, I only just got back... I guess I was leaving the initiative with you and not Amdir--namely, if you want him to run off and grab it, then let Brinn tell him.

But that's so... OOC!



Apparently my instincts run in the direction of character-driven RP.

I shall post anon.

EDIT: Well, that turned out a lot longer-winded and backstory-driven than I anticipated... but it's done. We can have Amdír and Inbeth show up whenever--I don't think we need to see anything between my post and their return--but it opens the door for Ioreth appear later, if wanted.

I haven't forgotten about this, though it may appear that way. Two people are on vacation in my office this week, and the work load hasn't obliged by slowing down. I'm reading, though.
I still think it would be interesting if Vëandur had a tangential encounter with Aldarion and tried to talk him out of his acting profession.

I'm ready to move everything to the next day, if our rehearsers are.

Formy, let me know if I wrote Amdir fine.



And so everyone knows, here's what I'm thinking of with the pair work...

The players will be investigating, at least for the next day, in pairs specifically chosen so that their self-interests don't dovetail into a nice little package. I'm almost certainly thinking Therian and Branor, since they've worked so well together already, but that's up to Fea and Boro. Coldan and Asta will be split up, if Brinn is not blind.

Further thoughts?

Aye, I think so far the only people Therian and Branor would be able to put up with are...Therian and Branor.

OK with me.

Good idea, the poor fellow can do with some distraction. I think he'd get along reasonably well with Amdír or Harrenon - maybe Sereth too, but I guess she'd find him boring, he's not much good with kids. No idea what would happen if you teamed him up with Aldarion; I'd like Coldan to overcome his animosity towards A. in the end, but I feel he still has quite a way to go.

For planning purposes, how many Days (in-game) do you think we will be investigating? Just this coming one, or maybe two or three?

Can I say, I so want you to do this, perfect time with the troupe out investigating and Aldarion getting the script together.

P.S. Nerwen I died reading your last post, but died in a good way.

I think it's the best opportunity to cause a bit a mischief. Let's see where Aldarion goes in his wanderings that would also be a likely location for a transient sailor to be.

Just a note: if it's Therian + Branor and Herrenon + Coldan, then remaining we have Asta, Aldarion, Sereth and Amdir. Mnemo, how do you suppose Brinn would distribute them?

A suggestion vís-a-vís Amdír: in all probability, he's going to be busy getting the sets out of storage, and then doing some hefty modifications to get them suitable for the new tale. As such, if Brinn decides to pair him with anyone, it should probably be someone conscripted to help with the manual labour, and any "research" they do would be incidental or accidental.

Sure, we could do that, Pitch. I had gathered from Nerwen's post in the game that the Players were just deciding to go into the city for information. I might have got it slightly wrong, though.

Dim - Coldan has no objections, and neither have I, but were we quite there yet? I thought we were still at the rehearsal. Shall we just pretend Harry asks after Brinnosyne or somebody has moved us to the following morning, and I'll have Coldan reply to him then?

And Ang, I forgot to say that your Cirdacil scenes are splendid! (I didn't know rubicund was a word - thanks for enlarging my vocabulary.)
