[Recap]
From Kevin: [Re: Intro]
Hi all,
My name is Kevin Newark and I'm running Dorhak. I'm just
trying out the game system for the first time. I ran across
the web page for the game and was impressed with how much
information was available! Wow! When the site went down I
just about cried.
I'm 33 years old, married, with an almost 5 year old.
Playing online like this allows me the time to play.
Playing face to face takes too long usually.
I look forward to knowing more about you and your
characters.
GM: Ack. Hi Kevin! Gee. Sounds like a rpg AAA group. I'm
the GM I am lazy and hate to work. That's my addiction.
From Wout: [Re: Website]
For all major changes to the list see:
http://powersandperils.org/OldNews.htm
This is a collection of all the right sidebar items that
highlight news about the site.
Not really a versioning page as this is manual and not
automatic. But it shows all main changes and some minor one.
I tend to forget small spelling corrections and such, but I
don't enter these as comments in my svn repository either.
(Yes all the underlying messy files and code to generate the
proper html from that mess is in a versioning system. I am
just not strict with commenting the exact changes.)
GM: Ack. I totally forgot about that page sorry! No worry
on the other stuff you do a great job. Great site. I
wonder if we should get a Mirror Site or a backup in case
Trump invades and takes over your nation and kills the
internet if he becomes president? :)
From Arawn: [Re: Actions]
Welcome aboard and sorry for the late reply. My name is
John Haight and I run Arawn. It's nice to see fresh blood in
a PnP game and I look forward to running Arawn alongside
Dorhak. Should be interesting, a gruff dwarf working alongside
the Sidh:)
GM: Ack. Technically we did have a short lived dwarf. :) I always
was curious on your last name. A unique name for sure.
From Z'leyra: [Re: Actions]
Z'leyra glances at the dwarf. "Dorhak, pleased to meet ...
GM: Ack.
From Dorhak: [Re: Actions]
I'm not really sure how much of this I (Dorhak) understand.
My language skills are pretty poor.
Which language is being spoken? How do I tell?
GM: Ack. Great question Kev. I think Arawn already addressed
this a bit. But this is OOC: Out of Character so it fits
in here as well.
From Unali: [Re: Actions]
Hi Kevin,
Welcome to the game.
I run Unali, a (sometimes withdrawn) warrior from Katai
in the East. She has been active in a couple of Scott's games
already, so from time to time references to past adventures
/adventurers tend to creep in.
I also keep the p&p website and these mailing lists running
Wout
GM: Ack. Good to see folks saying hi. I think you were in all
7 adventures going back to 1999? I know Alex has been.
From Kevin: [Re: Actions]
Hi John! Thanks for the welcome. I'm looking forward to
learning more about everyone and the characters. I've been
reading the past adventures on Scotts gamesite.
Geez. Is there anything Arawn can't do? Seems like a very
strong magic user.
I also like the idea of the Unalli character. She's
interesting and looks like fun to play
GM: Ack. If you do read the old ones let me know of any bad
links. Generally any file with .TXT may not load so change
to .txt :). Arawn is a powerful character. See the bios
on the site I mentioned. If Dorhak and Unali want to fight
we can do that as well. But she ahh..might kill you a bit
too fast. Just be advised. But it would be a fun turn. :)
Ok. I'd never kill folks on purpose but if others do...:)
Seriously though its nice to see a new player post as much
as you have. Some join and hardly say a few words. Yet.
This is how I determine role playing bonuses.
From Arawn: [Re: Actions]
The default language used by the party is Marentian. But, to
help figure out a common tongue, I'll list Arawn's languages
as he'd say hello in them until he senses recognition. Also,
here's a link to languages the party knows (not complete but
it should help) - http://nrgcomputers.com/pbem/lang.txt
Arawn's languages shared:
Aratad Ba'Ru Cerulean Climan Dawanan
Dechan Donaran Fomorian Helva Kameri
Katai Lemasan Marentian Salaqi Teosan
Taolisan Vassa Zen'da Sidh Elf Sidh
Faerry Sidh
Wood (available but less skilled - Cernunnos, Elder,
Neutral, Tonah)
GM: Ack. Yet doesn't understand Jive from the '70s.
From Arawn: [Re: Actions]
Thanks and Arawn's a work in progress:) Z'leyra's also a
very strong caster as well, though she specializes in a
different style. And wait until you see Unali in battle -
scary!
And the other characters are pretty amazing as well,
whether in or out of battle! Can't wait to see Dorhak in
action!
GM: Ack.

[New Stuff]
[Janaq 15th, 1635TH]
[Zen'da Eastern Plains - River Sich edge]
[Time: 7:17 am]
Z'leyra glances at the dwarf. "Dorhak, pleased to meet you.
As you can see we are traveling off to the lands of the Kameran.
If you want to tag along you may, presuming that you prove to
be a good companion. However, we are traveling fast. I know
that dwarves are reputed to be tireless, but I don't know if
you can keep up with our horses."
Fuk glances at Lucria and whispers in Ticasi. "Did she just
invite that smelly pile of...hair with us?"
Lucria nods and grins. "Can he run fast though I don't
see a horse unless its in the bushes hiding?"
Kiet walks by cleaning his javelin and hears the men
speaking in Ticasi Donaran. He wonders if the dwarf guy
can handle himself.
Dorhak glances to the woman who seemed to shoot fire from
her helmet. What the heck was that anyways. But the small
man frowns a bit wondering what she is trying to explain.
Unali keeps her hand on her dagger, looking down from her
horse. She looks at Dorhak mostly, but her eyes dart back and
forth.
In Zen'dali she asks Dorhak "Why don't you even know where
to go. Why not go back to the mountains." and she mutters
something in Katai. "Isn't that strange for a dwarf?"
Dorhak seems to understand from that, "why go where. Go
back to mountains." Dorhak growls why do humans always
assume dwarves never leave the mountains?
Unali then glances at Arawn's and his comments.
Replying to Arawn in Marentian. "Why wouldn't everything be
okay. Is anything wrong then. Why would it, I mean." She still
keeps a hand on her dagger. Arawn notices that she at some
point drops her other arm to her boot and almost like she is
ready to pull a dagger from her boot and then quickly withdraws
her arm, hand empty. After that she quickly turns her eyes
towards him for a second and back to Dorhak.
Lucria leans to Fuk and speaks again this time in Marentian.
"I don't know her that well. But is it me or does she seem
a bit antsy?"
Unali hears Z'leyra invite the dwarf and wonders why this
new person needs to come. Does the group invite anyone
who just helps them? Maybe this ugly man is a thief and
will steal things.
Unali remarks. "Shouldn't we get going. These empty
spaces give me the creeps. Something might drop out of the
sky suddenly."
Actions? Comments?
Next Update..Friday??
GM: A short update but not much action wise other than
some intros. Looks like Dorhak is invited. But
unless I forgot something he has no horse. So
you guys will have to deal with that before we can
move on. It is 7am so got a lot of travel time ahead.
A common language will have to be figured out for the
Dwarf. I will work on next update Thursday afternoon
and hopefully get it out by early evening. So if
you have actions I'll take it till Thursday noon EST.
GM: Mana/Experience chart updated. Mainly for experience.
I'll update the mana later once I figure out our next
move.
Oh. I forgot to add Kevin to roster.
I'l beat the dwarves...
oh wait..now that we have a dwarf...
ahh..these are my helpers..yeah..they claim slaves..but ignore them.
THEY forgot to add you to roster...blame them.
