Breathe, Ith! Take a deep breath, In...and out.
Everyone: Please edit your post if it in any way depicts Angalos being hasty and wanting to leave so soon. Right? Right. Aylwen [ February 16, 2003: Message edited by: Aylwen Dreamsong ]

I've edited as well. See how easy that was? Ith, we would never purposely make Angalos look bad! *Looks innocent*
Good job Orual. Don't feel bad, happens to the best of us (I mean...happens to everyone of course!). *Helps Ith to stop hyperventilating.* Aylwen [ February 28, 2003: Message edited by: Aylwen Dreamsong ]

LoL, believe me, this is not the first time I've edited...at the Green Dragon I started talking to a guy who was actually outside. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] But it is a good lesson--make sure to read the posts well! Don't take anything for granted based on the rest of the post, or take liberties based on something said, especially when dealing with other peoples' characters. /nods wisely/ Orual's Lesson of the Day. Kind of like my other Lesson for an earlier Day, which was not to put Orajel on an open sore. /winces/ Ouch...

*breathes normally* Thank you. I wasn't trying to blame anyone, I just tend to overreact a lot. Sorry about that! I'm still confused about the "tooo cheerfully..." thing though. *Puts on Treebeard voice* But, hoom, let's not be hasty now; we've plenty of time to fix these things.

I don't need to buy a vowel, but like Ithaeliel I think I'm going to have to use my Edit Card.

Oh! I guess I have to edit, too--I thought that Jack was talking, going on again about how he didn't believe that the book existed. Mattius? Who's talking?

Okay, so almost everyone edited their posts for Angalos being hasty and Rosfin not believing? I believe Helka may still have to edit for our friend Ith, but he can always do that when he has time...
Now, I must ask: Does anyone else feel the need to play their Edit Card before we 'move on' so to speak? I know that some, like Rosfin, would prefer to leave in the morning, or at least later than the evening. Yet Jack seems ready to leave. Let's leave in the morning. It would prvide a little time for every character to wrap things up in Dale. Orual could send Arethin on a quick trip home to talk to his brother and mother. We can get enough supplies for the six of them. Maybe Jack can get his new buddies a discount [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] on the rooms, if they are so needed? How does everyone feel about leaving in the morning? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Aylwen [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [ February 10, 2003: Message edited by: Aylwen Dreamsong ]

Hmmm... I went back to check if I had misread who was speaking, but Mattius had already edited! Quick work! Nice post, too! I guess that earlier I didn't read the post clearly, and I thought that Rosfin was speaking when it was Jack. Sorry. Lines like,

OKay I understand, I will try and make it clearer in the future, I can see how it is confusing. I was thinking about going back and editing it but that would leave me with more edits than actual posts!!! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Hello all!
Just a friendly reminder from your friendly friend Ith: please remember to disable your sigs when you post in the RPG! Going well so far, y'all! Thanks, Ithaeliel

Everything is going good guys. Like Ith said, lose those sigs! Oh and Orual: Quote:

Merci, Aylwen! I'd break into song (I will survive!) but that might push me over the edge. I'm feeling better, but I've taken so many extra-strength Tylenol that that's really no surprise. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Okay Guys:
As much as I like Dale, we aren't getting any closer to the book by staying here. We need: *Orual to bring Arethin back to the Inn *The people at the Inn need to wake up after a good night's sleep *Get supplies (ie food, water...) from the market. And we need to get the heck outta Dale! Can everyone do that? Okay? Okay. *Puts checklist down and prays for the snow to pile up on the roads* Also, Bethberry has snowed us all in at the White Horse, so take a look and share all your Rpg experiences and ideas. I'm making my way over there as soon as I can! Aylwen [ February 15, 2003: Message edited by: Aylwen Dreamsong ]

Helka--
I don't know if you frequent the White Horse, but what's going on there right now is that all of the patrons of the Inn are snowed in after a storm, courtesy of the all-powerful weather-altering Bethberry ( [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] ), giving everybody a chance to share their views and opinions on RP-ing in general, out of character. Hope that helps! ~*~Orual/Arethin~*~

I'm not often in inn's. I think that I could use my time here better. Does that sound arrogant?
*looks at sig* Hm guess not. I will go there someday. Ill just see when the time fit's me [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]. Greetings, Anuion P.S. New sig and new title.

Is there a set place for Arethin to meet the company, or can I just wing it?

My uneducated American friends! Bacon butties are part of that great tradition, the English fry up. You fry bacon on the pan and the buttie part just refers to two pieces of bread with butter on- hey presto Bacon Butties. NB the bacon is not like it is in the States, it is not burnt to an absolute crisp, just until it is nice enough to eat!

Ooh, yummy! I don't like burnt bacon either, Matt; at our house we cook it the English way. That's so cool!

Thanks, Mattius, you lost all of us Americans for a second there [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]. Though I still prefer my older sister's pancakes.
Helka, you have your own game where you can boss people around! LoL. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Orual, just make sure Arethin doesn't get left behind! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Oh goody, BACON BUTTIES!!! Aylwen

Just a quick question, are we all trying to get to the Iron Hills directly east of Dale or the Grey Mountains north of the Dale?

Sorry it's been a few days! The mountain which contains the book is just north of the Iron Hills, so we would be travelling east.
It won't take long (real time) to get our characters to the mountain. This Rpg was not meant to last very long in the first place. Anyways, the trick will be getting inside the mountain and getting the book. No doubt there will be traps and surprises in store for our adventurers [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] ! I will post soon. We'll go to the market (carefully avoiding Arethin's old buddies!) and Jadae will grab some candles and then the group can begin there trip out of Dale.

No need for candles, Anuion carries torches arround. He is almost all the time outdoors so he is never unprepared. Will there be some serious combat? I always like a good battle post.

We may have a slight run-in with a group of orcs, but not much more for battling. Sorry! The real thing is getting through the mountain, what with them smart Elves leaving traps to guard their book.
I never said this'd be a war/battle RPG so there! Yet again, I must say, you have your own RPG, which has seemingly more fighting than this one. Aylwen

You got it! And plenty of surprises too! Some of you will be randomly (I promise!) selected and I will send you a pm about what will happen to your character. Then we must see what your companions do for you!

Moving On!
Okay! We're all leaving Dale! It has been exactly a month (I think!) since Susan started the Game Thead. This game was only supposed to last from 2 1/2 to three months. We have barely left Dale (if you could call it 'leaving'). As I said earlier, it will not take long for us to get to the Mountain. And it won't be hard to find, either. Just north of the Iron Hills. Though we may run into some sort of evil group (I haven't quite decided yet) to give us a little taste of battle. Then we'll get to the Mountain. As I said in the White Horse: Quote:
If none of you want to post about us really leaving Dale, I will sometime soon. Though I'd really prefer it if one of you did, so that I'd be giving you all more of a chance to 'take the itiative' so to speak. Did that make sense? I hope so.

Okay, so no one wants to post? Okay, I will. I will tonight or tomorrow morning. Then we can move on soon. Aylwen P.S.

Anuion has agreed that Rosfin can go first. If he dies, we know there is a trap. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]
You would be like the bird in the cole mine. Mwuahahahahahaha. Just kidding. The mine.. I mean moutain will contain boobytraps. What kind of traps will that be? Are they like pits with walls closing in and chrushing and giant rolling boulders kinda traps or more like wild animals kinda traps?

Helka, I didn't mean like that! I forbid you to use our Dwarf-friend as a warning for pitfalls! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
Helka, as much as we all love your clever and wondrous signature, it is a requirement that posts in the RPG thread be devoid of our sigs. Helka (again...sheesh, you keep gettin into trouble!), I am not telling you what sort of traps until the time is right (and that is not now!). I won't kill any of your characters, unless of course you want me to. We can have them mysteriously spontaneously combust after using Jadae's gifts. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] Where has doug*platypus gone? Rosfin is bing asked for a story or song!! Aylwen
