NotW XXXII: Siege of Evermore: Game Thread

[Methos]

@ .org players: Feel free to continue using Vote: blah if you want, but so that you're not confused, please remember that CFC simply bolds the players name to make an accusation. So, me voting would simply be civplayah. I hope this clears things up.

 

[Winston Hughes]

The Old Man's Son stares at his old man - the Old Man - with a look of utter contempt.

Oh, shut up, you senile old coot! Nobody believes your ridiculous stories.

I mean... You? A soldier? Ha!

The closest you've ever came to combat was when those guards dragged you out of the brothel for exposing yourself to the barstaff!

And while we're on the subject... Don't let me catch you paying any more visits to the cathouse, you horny old toad. That's my inheritance you're squandering!

 

[Seon]

*raises one eyebrow*

 

[Diamondeye]

The otherwise silent guard speaks up, her gaze still locked onto the athlete. Her voice is low, but stingy. "Is the reason he doesn't speak that he's got muscles instead of brains, or that he has something to hide?"

 

[TheLastOne36]

OOOH I like this sword. Now, I'll just need to make a shield out of the tree in the backyard!

 

[landlubber]

The Phalanx was disappointed at the news that the most invincible flurry had been killed. "Great," he mumbled. "Here's where my job gets interesting. Now, I may have to be sent out of town, and for what? To be killed by wretched Svartalfar? Nonsense. We need to find those Esus-crazed maniacs immediately." He went silent.

 

[TheForestAuro]

What's a sfart-afar?

 

[choxorn]

I think they're evil Winter Elves.

 

[Autolycus]

The Scholar adjusts his monocle, preparing for a long lecture
The Svartalafar are our wayward cousins, who follow the Queen of the Unseelie Court, Faeryl Viconia. They argue that the alternation the courts is climatologically based, and therefore, their queen should have ruled throughout the Age of Ice. In addition they now follow the wicked goddess of deception, Esus, rather than Sucellus or Cernunnos ...
The Scholar trails off, noticing that the little girl has fallen asleep and no one else is paying attention.

!!!

What are you trying to say about all the elfs here? And anyone have any clue where my travel agent is who sent me to a war zone?

Autolycus the Scholar seems to want us to vote for him, nothing good comes of dastardly monocles.

 

[Autolycus]

Sorry, Earthling. I'd forgotten I'd spoken against you. History and Religion just excite me so much. Has anyone seen that merchant Khazaar, he might be a profiteering accomplice of the Svartalafar. Sometimes I fear he has a weakness for Mammon.

 

[Earthling]

Yes, maybe I got carried away. Is kinda entrancing around here (hums):

"Aaaaaaah aaah Aaaah aah Aaah Aaaaaaah aaah aaah aah aaaah.

Aaaaaaahhh Aaaaaaahhh aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh

nyuUUuhhh nyuh nyuh NYUuuuuuhh nyuh

nyuUUuhhhh nyuh nyuh NYUuuuuhh nyuh

Nuuh nuuuuh nuuhhhh nuhhh nuh nuuhhhhh"

Oh right, unvote Autolycus

Edit: OOC: No one here is named Taylor are they? Or any objections about saying that name?

 

[Diamondeye]

The cowled guard finds her feet and walks slowly to the athlete, J-Man. She pokes him cautiously. Not seeing any reaction, she pushes him with both hands. "Are you even awake?", she asks, still in her low voice, but not recieving an answer, she leaves him and turn to the few others who are speaking. "This is going to be hard if everyone's asleep. The Winter Elves could easily hide in that flock of sleepy sheep."

(OOC: I'm just prodding around for inactivity, but I remember how J-Man played in Renata's game based on roughly the same conflict, so I'm keeping my vote on him until he wakes up)

 

[J-man]

The athlete came back from his morning training, a bit tired.

I'm here and fully awake! I've been training, as an athlete I have a strict and rigorous training schedule!

For now I will abstain from voting but that can change if we find a lead on that svartalfar scum!

Abstain

 

[Bad Player]

Hi I don't have time to read the thread now but I'm not inactive - I'll read it tomorrow morning!

"Reenk"

"Roink"

Unvote: Khazaar, Vote: J-man

Spoiler :

Man, dug myself a hole with this character. Roleplay over style in this game, other one will be different.

 

[Diamondeye]

The guard nodded in appreciation as the Athlete, J-Man finally spoke, and turned her intense gaze to the silent thinker, Krill

 

[Methos]

Well, might as well get this started. I used random.org to pick my first vote and it came up with 19.

Er, reroll (since 19 is me) and I get J-Man.

Edit: Hehe, I thought no one had voted yet. My mistake.
