S4S Posted January 25, 2021 Posted January 25, 2021 @Channelknight Fadran Quote Is there anything that you want to have happen with Valzywn and the Wizard Tower or the people pillaging it? If there was a specific outcome that you wanted from this situation, let us know what direction you want to go and details about the how you envision everything taking place (what is the tower like, how many looters, what are the looters like, etc.). If there isn't anything special you wanted to do with the Wizard Tower or the looters, perhaps this would be the time to introduce our first dragon. Maybe a dragon appears by being drawn to the magical aura of the tower, then attacks the people ransacking the place? I believe that each of us is in a position were we would be able to react to a dragon without being locked into only having a few options. I really would like the RP to continue, and I think that having more structure for this current scene would help things to move forward instead of everyone just waiting for something to happen. 1

"I am Xeus, a traveler," he said, "I was part of a different quest originally to kill a certain Wondersoul, but have abandoned it."

Maybe the group could liberate the tower and rest there for a couple days, but get attacked by the dragon while they're there?

Some of us go investigate the current position of the tower with Valzwyn, others of us go search for information in the library, and then a dragon attacks? Or we could liberate the tower then do library stuff.

S4S Posted January 25, 2021 Posted January 25, 2021 @Channelknight Fadran @Knight of Iron Quote Have we established where this library is located (sorry if we have, I didn't see any mention of it before)? If the library is inside the tower, I think we may need to deal with the looters first in order to get inside, since they've already been introduced and four of us are already closing in on them and the tower. If the library is somewhere else, I think we're split up pretty good at the moment and everyone should be able to choose where they want to go at this time. I do like the idea of some "downtime" and character dialogue, but if we choose to remain at the Wizard Tower for long I think we will need to deal with the pillagers at some point. For those that are moving to liberate the tower: @Channelknight Fadran, how do you see things unfolding? How many looters are there? What are they like, or are there magic users among them? Are some of them already inside the tower? As you were the one to present the idea, if you would like to take charge as the pillagers that would be great. If not, I can try to write something up as the looters to help keep the story moving forward.

Quote I don't believe we established where the library was, but I'm not super active in this thread, so I'm not the person to ask. The tower certainly has a library, but I doubt it's the library. I think we could liberate the tower and make it a little downtime area where the group can discuss what's going on before splitting up There are about a hundred looters, and the liberation itself would really just be us showcasing our characters' abilities. I don't know what kind of people there are; at this point, they're just greedy opportunists. They've been looting the tower for a few weeks, and have ransacked most of the stuff inside. I can write the looters and pillagers. Edited January 25, 2021 by Channelknight Fadran

And as for showcasing character's abilities, I'm game. I attempted that with an attack earlier, but we got some new folks, and Orpheus needs some demonist practice. "So, Valzwyn," said Orpheus, "What do you say we try and talk to them? Try and stop them, or something?"

Try and stop them, or something?" "That's the idea," she growled, then entered the series of wagons and stalls controlled by looters. Everywhere, people were buying and selling the tower's things. Her things. Feldspar's things. A massive spark of anger surged through her as she watched a shifty guy showcasing one of Feldspar's hats. "Hey!" She shouted, running over to him and snatching the hat away. "That doesn't belong to you!"
