@Lord Ruler Sylphrena

Once your character gets approved, would you be interested in having your character meet Fenna and Leon (as long as @TwinStorm likes the idea)? I thought that could be an interesting interaction.

Sunwatcher/Vane has been approved now and meeting Fenna and Leon sounds like a great idea. Vane is morally grey enough that he wouldn't be all that opposed to forming a temporary partnership. Also if Leon is on the hunt for some    anti-light Vane wouldn't mind getting a boost to his arsenal. Given the current lockdown and your character's troubles with the law, some emotional Allomancy and being accompanied by a New Halladran resident might help you in the future. We can have Vane be at the checkpoint near where you guy are or you guys can meet him later. Vane would usually prefers making friends instead of enemies but if you want a altercation to occur that would also work.

@TwinStorm@Steel SpeedsterLet me know what you guys think.

Nice let me know when you want him to show up (Maybe after you escape the cops) and we can see if he can help you with what your characters have planned. If Leon is meeting with the UFO to get anti-light I would definitely want Vane to tag along if Leon is cool with that.

I'd like to see what @Koloss17 has the Nalthian guards do first, but I'll let you know when I think it would be a good moment. Should be pretty soon, I think.

Well the real question is how y’all will escape this one. One option is just that you don’t, and get taken off to jail, but rn I’m seeing the options being really jail, escaping the district, or being hunted down inside the district. It’s y’all’s call on what direction that will go, as I am trying my darndest to not restrict your options. But at this point it’s not something that you can easily walk out of.

I’m thinking that some version of going on the run inside the district. One scenario (kind of boring, but plausible) is Fenna and Leon simply being forced to run and hide. They’re both fast and mobile, and could probably eventually outmaneuver the guards.

If @Lord Ruler Sylphrena’s character gets involved, something more peaceable might be worked out. He is a Returned (or at least looks like one), and a Rioter with duralumin. I’m not sure how much authority a Returned has in New Hallandren, but he might be able to work something out, or at the least cause some distraction with a mass duralumin Rioting. This, of course, is all dependent on whether he would want to intervene in the first place.

If it’s left up to Fenna and Leon, Fenna will probably follow his lead, (unless that involves going to jail, which she’s unlikely to do willingly in any scenario.)

My character can definitely help with you getting past the checkpoints in the future but your going to have to ditch 80% of the guards before he is willing to help. Emotional Allomancy also won't help much now given how aggressive your entrance was. You might honestly have better luck escaping from jail if your able to hold on to some of your metals. Splitting up briefly till things settle down might also be a smart move. If you leave the district and come back with some disguises Vane is capable of rioting trust within a couple of border guards to let you in.

At this point, you could probably jump in whenever you feel like it. Fenna and Leon have split up though, so you’ll have to pick which, if either, you want Vane to meet right now. In short, whatever you want to do works for me.

Sounds good. Vane doesn't want to be hung out to dry so I don't think he would want to meet Leon if he did see him abandon Fenna. You can expect Vane to be making his entrance soon though.

[Stormlightsong]

Farenah and company will be heading through New Halandren to deliver some valuable weaponry. My plan is that they will be intercepted by the high alert guards. Would anyone be interested in having their character be present in such an exchange? If so inform me so that I can tag you in that post.

I’ve got my irl stuff mostly back under control so I think I’ll be able to start rping here again now. I saw that a new episode might be starting soon, so I can wait to have Eza enter until then if that would work better. @TwinStorm, so sorry for ditching the Leon plan thing. If you still want him and Eza to meet at some point I’m happy to still do that. I completely understand if not though because I’m sure a lot has changed. Alternatively, @Steel Speedster, since Fenna was fighting in the Boss Fight of Era 7, Eza might actually be inclined to trust her a bit. Not too terribly much, but seeing her actively fight on the side of good made a good impression. I think she’s the person Eza would be most likely to start a conversation with willingly if you’re interested in that (I think I can find an excuse for her to do so).

If anyone has any other ideas/suggestions on how Eza can get involved please let me know! To sum up her character’s relevant info for interactions, she’s a teen investigating a hemalurgic organization with recently aggravated trust issues. I think if a character has been in the Mistwarrens in the past 7ish months they might’ve seen her on wanted posters that were up for a couple of days.

That would work for me.

Alrighty, I’ll have Eza approach Fenna next episode.

@Stormlightsong @SpiritOfWrath can we assume by now that Leon has found the convoy?

What do you mean? If you are thinking Leon is just wandering around then one, he’s probably being chased still and two, why would he care about a random truck? He would maybe notice that there are barely of any blue lines coming from the truck but why would he think anything of it.

BTW, I think this interaction would be interesting but I think that you need a reason why Leon would be suspicious of a disguised vehicle.

 

also @SpiritOfWrath can I assume that Tulen has started driving?

It’s not an armored convoy. It is one truck that is made to fit in with the local style and has aluminum lining (that is most likely painted as to not be suspicious)

@Steel Speedster

Assuming episode 2 has provided a very brief time skip it's safe to say Fenna has evaded the cops. I'm fully ready to bring in Vane now but I'm wondering what part of New Halladran Fenna is currently in or if she still in the same area as episode 1. Let me know where Vane would run into her or we can say Vane used his lifesense to track her down after she caught his eye during her chase. I can have Vane run into her before or after she meets Eza.

@Lunamor

Sense both our characters are probably going to be meeting Fenna at the same time how do you think Eza would interact with Vane? I know you mentioned she wants to track down some hemalurgists and sense Vane is a hemalurgist himself he might have some insights as to how to locate them.

Yeah, I'm going to assume that the cops lost track of her after my last post. For simplicity sake, I'll say she's still hiding in that building.

I'm good with either order. It seems to me like Eza might be less likely to approach if Vane is already there, but it's @Lunamor's call.

I think it'd make most sense for Eza to met Fenna first, she would avoid approaching her if she knew a hemalurgist was initially with her. I'll make a post for her later today.

Okay though just so you know Vane doesn't really broadcast that information publicly and he wears a lot of clothing to conceal his spikes. I've also all ready written and am about to post a scene where Vane runs into where Fenna is hiding. I'll try to make him seem as trustworthy as possible as to not interfere with your character but I also don't really want to delay making my first story post any longer.
