Really sorry for my absence guys. I've been working on Uni stuff, and doing a bit to help set up another RP. I'll have a Jarl post and a Fiona post up tonight. At some point I should probably sleep and/or eat as well.

Vincent, your character and mine could pop over to the Inn or another place, as an excuse for the whole Daikanos thing as well as our characters understanding each other.
Goodnight Gavril :)

I hope it's OK that I anolyzed the elven briastplate, saw it was enchanted (but with what he doesn't know yet, even if your elf doesn't know it himself, the enchantment doesn't need to be anything special or game-breaking, a smile feather enchantment would make it slightly lighter, etc), and pointed out how poor protection it offers if a rock manages to damage it. :)

This looks very interesting. I've glanced at it a few times before but now I'm thinking about joining it. I have some old characters I might dig up. '

So far has there been any major events I should know of?

The biggest thing is shimmermist mine, which is currently investigated by a highly away-from-keyboard mercenary group, and the daedric bet.

The town is still being populated by the first wave or so of skilled immigrants, so really there isn't that much to know.

It'd be great to have you on board. Just post your CS here and I'll give it a look. One bit of advise I'd give is its a good idea to have a job in the town in mind for your character. For instance, Gorbad RPs our blacksmith, we have a Captain of the Guard who will be selected soon, a Court Mage, an innkeeper, etc. We do have a shop keeper, but he has been away for a while. Town could always do with more merchants. Or anything really you can think of :smile:

We even have a Thalmor Justicar attached to Valton, causing trouble! So you're character doesn't even need to necessarily be useful :wink:

something about ebony: isn't it blood of Lorkhan ? didn't it come from red mountain when the heart of Lorkhan crashed in there or something ? I'm pretty sure it isn't the blood of Dagoth Ur.

"Some migrants have arrived."

EDIT: Gavril, Dagoth Ur is an alternative name for Red Mountain.

I need to give Tom a PM about that. One thing to keep in mind is he is Australian, so even when he is online, it is at unexpected times, and he is always standing upside-down. And Lizard Wizard...yeah. I'm not sure what happened to him. I think he was eaten by a dragon or something.

something about ebony: isn't it blood of Lorkhan ? didn't it come from red mountain when the heart of Lorkhan crashed in there or something ? I'm pretty sure it isn't the blood of Dagoth Ur.

I think this is closer to the truth. "Blood of Dagoth Ur" could be an anarchonism from when Red Mountain/Vvardenfell was called Dagoth Ur, referring to Ebony mined specifically from that mountain. Ebony is also found elsewhere.

haha, I knew Dagoth Ur was a different name for Red Mountain *kuch, kuch* I kind of forgot that but forgive me, I'm ashamed to say that I never played morrowind and am not to familiar with its lore :)

You're lucky, because now you can play one of the best games ever made for the first time! Seriously, it's cheap, and [NUMINIT]ing amazing.

@yes man ftw: You'll have to put a date on when that writ of assassination took place otherwise i won't be able to respond properly. he has worked as a royal guard until the 3E420 or something like that I don't have an exact date but that should be it, kind of. after that he never entered morrowind again until the Red Year passed. he then travelled to morrowind a few times but not enough to get into its politics and to really know everything that is happening there. he also didn't care for it anymore and instead he tried to help the local people rebuilt there cities and towns until he was chased down again by the royal guard.

haha, Daikanos wasn't even born then :P 3E381. but it's not a problem if he hasn't heard of it. He'll just tell Xerxes that he doesn't know what he's talking about :P

@Gavril Alright, that should work... :smile:
