[23:04] * Maris says looking at their now empty tent [23:04] the camp is getting ready to go, having built pontoons from the nearby forest that they will use to cross the river [23:04] "Don't know, don't care. Why? " [23:04] "Because she's a demon. Get some trackers. We need to follow their tale. [23:05] trail. [23:05] "A *what* ?" [23:05] "A demon. Minnow is sure of it." [23:05] "And where are Minnow and Tabius?" [23:05] "Oh, this is just fuckign GREAT." [23:06] "No clue where they are. Did you check their tent ?" [23:06] * Maris shakes his head and goes to do so. [23:06] "Get our best trackers. They'll shadow Tei and Coils as a backup. [23:07] "We need to save the empress while Coils tries to possess her at the cove. Then we can strike." [23:08] * Vanal nods and starts shouting the orders in barbarian [23:08] "Want me to bring Irin and Shak with us ?" [23:08] "Jynaru, Cicada, and Tala are already following them." [23:08] "Perhaps just you and Shak. I'll raly the troops but we're not moving tell this is settled. [23:09] "And keep it hush-hush, right ?" [23:09] * Maris nods [23:09] " [23:09] the high officer women flock around Vanal and Maris, ready for their orders [23:09] "Check, so no eleanor." [23:10] * Maris gives them the orders, "No take her just keep her very far back. [23:10] the women each scatter back to their men once they have their orders [23:10] "It depends on the distance, too. Wearing that thign is bloody tiring. [23:11] "Plus, if they're indoors, no dice, won't be able to use her." [23:11] "You can leave it hear if you wish. It's your decision. BUt we can't move it without you in it." [23:12] (Is the cove in a cave/indoors ?) [23:12] ((does anyone know wher the cove actually is?)) [23:13] yes [23:13] it's the cove where tala killed that solar [23:13] (okay, so strider=useless) [23:13] ((Ah.)) [23:13] that tei dissapeared to [23:13] * Vanal gets his gear together [23:13] "I left the hearthstone to the strider in my trunk. If I don't come back, Eleanor's yours." [23:14] * Maris just orders people to head there at all speed then, "Allright. Good luck." [23:14] * Vanal grabs his thunderbolt shield and Dividing Wind of Crimson Fury [23:14] (Barbarian) "Okay folks, let's MOVE !" [23:14] * Maris then goes about readying the troop to head home leaving a small contingent to conceal and gaurd the strider here. [23:15] where are you going? [23:15] south, along the river, or across it? [23:15] * Maris is heading to the main camp to rally the troops. [23:15] We're gonna try and follow their trail as best as possible [23:16] hm [23:16] that's kinda two different things [23:16] Hmm [23:16] you can either go south, or you can go east [23:16] * Maris also sends runners to the villages with a word to the shamans. Maris needs to contact Sulayman immediately and he needs suggestions on how to do so. [23:17] Along the river [23:18] * Maris wishes he didn't have to be all responsible about this and let other people deal with it. [23:18] allright [23:19] roll per + survival [23:19] !ex 5 [23:19] He's got at least one of my level 11 trackers with him. [23:19] Dice Script Active [23:19] ok [23:19] Storyteller (8), 5, 1, 10, 1, 3, 7, 8, 6, Successes : 4 [23:19] !ex 8 [23:20] !ex 5 [23:20] Vanal (5), 5, 6, 7, 6, 3, Successes : 1 [23:21] Vanal, one of the huntresses tells you that a small group passed this way earlier [23:21] maybe 10 people or so [23:22] How big was Jyn's aprty, again ? [23:23] about that size [23:23] * Vanal follows the trail [23:23] how fast? [23:25] probally as fast as he can manage [23:25] bingo [23:26] well, as fast as we cna maintain for an indefinite period of time [23:26] allright roll charisma + endurance [23:26] !ex 5 [23:26] Vanal (5), 3, 10, 10, 5, 5, Successes : 4 [23:26] YO [23:26] you inspire your troops to make good time [23:26] (Onward barbarian soldiers ! *g*) [23:35] allright maris [23:36] * Vanal hustles through the forest, sweat dripping freely from his brow, but still focused on hauling ass to the cove [23:36] you cross the river with your elite guard [23:36] on the other side you have your horse waiting for you [23:36] whatcha want to name her? [23:38] * Maris looks to Scarlet and says to Irin, "Take Scarlet and start gathering the troops and chiefs. I'll come with these as soon as we can make it." [23:39] * Maris then leads his troops at a good march to the capitol city. [23:40] Irin nods [23:40] she takes the horse and moves out [23:40] * Maris needs a proper gaurd if he's going to be dealing with Lunars so he let's Irin gather the troops for him. [23:40] you'll arrive at the capital city some two days later with no problems [23:41] * Maris gathers the chieftain and his officer's and begins to spell out his plans for taking out the Demon and making their home safe again. [23:42] * Maris will apoligize for leaving abrubtly but the solar's of the cities needed his help and have even convinced him to try and save their people too. Together the two people's can take out Fallen Tongue forever. But for that to work they will need to work in massive effort. [23:43] * Maris specifically talks of the old days of glory and the curroption Fallen Tongue has caused. It must be stopped. [23:44] performance/presence + charisma +3 stunt [23:45] ((presence definately)) [23:45] * Storyteller nods [23:45] (increasing presence by 5 as well) [23:45] ((I also spend a willpower for auto success)) [23:45] !ex 17 [23:45] Maris (17), 10, 5, 7, 5, 10, 8, 5, 5, 1, 4, 5, 6, 10, 5, 10, 1, 1, Successes : 10 [23:46] ((good didn't let myself down with that one)) [23:46] nice [23:46] anyhwo you are their honored leader. [23:46] * Storyteller notes that roughly 1/3 of your women are pregnant at this point, which is roughly 60 children [23:48] Good. Roughly I'm having messengers sent across the barbarian's sid eof the island to spread my message. I'll send offerings for the chieftains of all the peoples that wish to meet with me. I want to try and gather as many troops outside my village as possible. As well as let it be known that I'm looking for Sulayman. Any mentioining of legends or poeple that match Lunar references are to be reported. [23:49] My people are going to be outfitted for war as fast as possible [23:49] * Storyteller nods [23:49] it will take them a few months to all gather but that's time [23:49] Once I've got this set up I'm called the elemental I got to my aid and together with my gaurds we're heading to the spirit court's to begin getting folk together [23:50] hmm [23:50] spirits on your side? [23:50] That's what I want [23:50] The elemental is the first I got. Any other's I can find to help my cause will be useful [23:51] I don't know what they can do but what I plan may need all their help as well [23:51] Fallen Tongue isn't going down without a fight. [23:51] hm [23:51] make some stunts? [23:51] * Maris nods [23:52] Tell me what the court is going to look like [23:52] Who I'm going to see. I get as much information beforehand as I can. [23:53] there will probably be several courts [23:53] * Maris nods [23:53] * Maris sits and thinks [23:53] the first is the one by the demanse [23:54] * Maris will head to that sending his elemental ahead to annouce his presence so they aren't surprised. [23:54] the demense is large and mostly a grassy plain, with large jutting ruins around it. [23:54] In the center there will be a large tree molded into the shape of a throne [23:54] * Maris goes with his gaurds to it. [23:55] * Maris says to the clearing that he would speak with them of Fallen Tongue and his new nation. And what it mean's for the spirits. [23:55] * Maris would like to be able to see them though first. [23:55] * Retrieving #pvpexaltedrp2 info... [23:56] The elementals are naturally material. The spirits will remain in obscurity. [00:00] "I have the support of 3 legions of troops and the Solar's of the cities beyond this plain. I have support of Immaculates as well. Together we are going to destroy Fallen Tongue." He pauses to let his resolve to do this sink in to their heads, "I will do this with or without your help. But if we worked together we could make this a new age for this island. An age of freedom and of prosperity." [00:00] "I've come to ask you if you would join us in our triumph and in forging this new age." [00:01] * Maris waits to see what the general consensus is before continueing. [00:04] ((Gonna tell me how much trouble I'm having with my idea's getting across yet?)) [00:04] they seem to be listening to you [00:04] sorry many things :) [00:07] "Hor now I am gathering my people and those else I can find for the final assault. Many things need to be worked out. I know that you all have people under your leadership as well. I would ask that you would advise them to join this strike. I would ask that you aid us however you can. When we are done I will make sure all get proper respect and offerings from all the people of these lands." [00:07] ((for now)) [00:08] they accept the possibility of working to your mutual advantage. [00:08] "In less then two months we will be ready for the attack. Please be with us in planning and implementing that attack. It will be a great victory and it will give great rewards." [00:10] * Maris gladly takes their acceptance and begins the process of slowly slicing away at their power bases without them knowing and making their people his people. He plans on the army being entirely unified under him before he is done. [00:10] they desire to work out the details so roll charisma + beuracracy [00:11] * Maris also tries to get them to help him find the lunars. [00:11] +3 [00:11] * Maris spends a willpower for an auto success. [00:12] !ex 10 [00:12] Maris (10), 9, 5, 2, 1, 8, 8, 8, 9, 6, 6, Successes : 5 [00:12] ((damn)) [00:13] heh [00:14] ((well you asked from my weakest pool. Darn you)) [00:14] * Maris smirks [00:14] :p [00:16] * Maris being the most mortal of any of them and having spent the last many months organizing his clans will try to push for as much control over the organization of the army as he can as well as much other power as he can get. [00:18] you are their honored leader [00:18] Good [00:19] Tell me if I can get any progress on the lunar's as well [00:19] After I've got the spirit's dealt with I'll do best focusing on that and the army details [00:20] The Inland peoples are probally going to be the hardest to get. [00:20] * Maris is hoping converting their leaders will get them fastest. [00:22] * Storyteller nods sagely [00:22] lunars will remain silent, though you suspect they got the message [00:23] * Maris will continue trying to get some sort of contact with them if he can. POssibly trying to find out if there's some lands where Sulayman's people live. The one's with the banners [00:25] * Maris in the meantime does his best to make the people into one conglomerated whole and barbarianish enough to make any Lunar proud [01:02] * Vanal (~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3497159.sympatico.ca) Quit (Quit: "You think you're better than me because of your Spinaroonie ? Well the Spinaroonie has NOTHING on the Jericho Juke and Jive !" *dances spastically*) Session Close: Sun Jan 12 01:43:27 2003
