Well if there is other stuff too besides mechanics and technical thingys then I'm willing to give it a try. Vampires and Werewolves sound like a good deal to me.

Im really up for anything outfit wise, but I will say steampunk is one of my least favorites if it is stuck to the whole gold/brown colour scheme. Both myself and Jettison are more in to odd colours. At least this masq added a lot of brights so I may be able to pull it off better than in ws2.

Quick question, is it safe to assume Lucien has a crows nest on the Floating Frenchman? If not, would one of the other Pyrate vessels have one?

Okay, Squirrel train has derailed with this first scored RP, and something I thought I had clarified really well is turning out to be clear as mud to quite a few folks, so let's try again!

  1. About those suggested "roles." Please note the term suggested! When we were starting up, we had folks saying things like, "I'd love to play be I can't to puzzles," or "I can organize, but I don't want to RP at all," and a bunch of stuff like that.

So, I made a few suggestions as to some roles that MIGHT help out a team IF they were needed. These were NOT assignments, and I thought I dealt with the confusion at that time, especially when Cyroris asked about just keeping things as they were, and I agreed.

These suggestions were only to help teams that needed it. That's all. IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT!!!

Just have the captain or co-captain turn in the RP on the chapter story thread, as you have always done.

  1. The Steampunk stuff which sort of hijacked the board--my bad---is just an idea coming from some suggestions or comments in smails. It's all about WS5! It has nothing to do with WS4!

It wouldn't involve any more mechanics than WS2, it would be magic and alchemy laden, and it certainly would not have all dull colors! BUT, it's all smoke and mirrors right now! Ellak and Sinhae are this adventure!

  1. No, you do NOT all have to arrive in Crystania ships. The listings are only for the folks who want to enhance their RP introductions. As far as I'm concerned, you're on a hill overlooking the open city gates, and you're going to go down and in, find the coffee shop, and deal with whatever confronts you. Just don't go into the cafe' okay?

If you want a fancy aerial intro, go ahead, but it won't matter to the judges, as they will be starting at that hilltop!

As to Ellak City and what it looks like, here are some helpful pictures to give you an idea:

Its side streets are narrow, and twisty, and it's pretty lawless except for its own laws, but it has GREAT coffee.


Yes, the Frenchman has a crow's nest.

, Am a little confused still...our RP for the travelers began when WS4 was begun as description of the characters and introduction at the Inn.. all this before the hill and arrival scene you added later onto the assignment.

Are you saying all the descriptions etc. we have slowly done now need to be moved to the hill scene and our RP will only be judged from the hill on? Or can we leave it as we started which was from the Inn?

Your RP for Chapter 1 is done, scored and posted. everyone was great and got full points. For the Rp for Chapter 2, here's the original post:

Quote
2) The challenge is to role-play your team&;s entry in Ellak City. You only need to play this up to the point where you have arrived at the Cafe&; where you believe Tanaka and The Master met. Don&;t go inside; just find it. You can make this RP as simple or as complex as you wish. There are no set rules here. The RP is worth 100 to 500 points.

This allows you to play it up or play it down. Since some folks were having trouble with this, I added the third post in the actual chapter thread. This was the clarification:

Quote
After one quick meal and a brief rest, the Protectors make their way through the tunnel to arrive at the Gearwork Goose just before dinner. But a night of really good food and drink is not to be had. Oh, you all get dinner, but that is followed by boarding the various craft of the Crystal Pyrates and taking to the air.</p>
<p>A rather long trip deposits you on top of a sloping hill that leads down to the wide gates of Ellak City. It&;s an easy walk to the open city gates, but Larianne sighs, &quot;I wouldn&;t exactly call this &;Cafe&; Star Map&; a good lead, but it&;s the only thing Nancy could locate on short notice, so we&;ll have to roll with it.&quot;

I'm not sure what else I can do to make the assignment clear?

, there was no roleplay for chapter one with the teams assignments, just HA and a puzzle. All the roleplay by the travelers was saved for when we could roleplay the description of our characters and how they met at the Inn. With

This would cover the Travelers descriptions and them meeting at the Inn also...

this completely ignores our original roleplay which means moving all descriptions and meeting to the hilltop which was my question.

I just don't know how much we have to rewrite if any :(

We can also just post what we have and hope for the best but I will still be confused on what if any we will be allowed....

Since we had quite a few folks who didn't want to introduce already familiar characters again, the RP in chapter 1 was completely optional. Most teams included character descriptions, some did not; it was all good. I'm not sure how you would work your team's meeting at the inn and then traveling through the tunnel and on to Ellak City into the RP for Chapter 2, but you are more than welcome to do so. You can just include the hillside at the end.

Thanks! Will double check our roleplay but think it has been managed... we saved our character description until now due to new players in our group and some changing their HA. :)

PS.. I think I accidentally pressed that ping button, if you are pinged twice I apologize!
