Topic: Save The Princess recruitment
Subject: say whaaaa?
Well... from what I've heard it's not too uncommon for you to be dancing naked Al... and frankly I'm not sure the inn needs another bare butt running around. I choose not to elaborate on that. We all have good enough imaginations. 
That said I'm sure I'd join you in the nudist revelry if this game continued past one adventure as I have yet to be involved in a complete D&D adventure (let alone campaign)... not just here on the inn but over the table. Yes, yes I know its a sad state of affairs but I have faith that one day I'll make it. And this looks like a solid cast! 
Ps. I think we should change the name of the game to Save the Prostitute, Save the Llama.

Topic: New Spores of Itanlok Q/A ~ 2
Subject: i'ma lookin and i'ma likin
Mmm fun! Still liking it Almerin, maybe even more now, there's nothing like a big crunchy spider to start the game off!
A couple quick questions before I start thinking about things.
What's mobility like, what with a crowd of Khords trying to escape all at once and a collapsed wall, &c...
Also, I'm guessing it doesn't look familiar or like any previous enemies (even to Gloin I mean he should've atleast heard of Shelob... okay okay bad joke).
Umm... and other than that no questions for now boss. I'll try to get a post up in the next little while. Got exams and Alacrity's game to think about but I will hurry towards getting a good post out for this game.

Topic: Hello Everyone
Subject: good day sir
Well hello again. I said pretty much my whole spiel in your Dungeons & Dragons thread and it was already a little long-winded so repeating it would be a little tiresome both read and written. However WELCOME!!!! There are fireworks going off where I am... I don't know about you.
Let me see if I can drag the Welcoming Committee in. But let me note that I already called dibs on warning him about feeding Grugg and Eol's facelicks. So I was first second this time. Ha! Ehm... Nice to make your acquaintance Mr. Conquest, I hope to see you around here much more in the days to come.
-Dragonblood
Edit: Ninja facelicked, DB! 
EDIT: AAAAARGH!!!
Edit: I was not aware that font alterations within the post would effect the reply, edit, delete buttons as well as the date posted... what if I just signed every post off like this:
Edit from Olan: then I'd have to fix my system to prevent this, which would create work, and make me not like you. 
Edit: Err... um... what those big letters? Those weren't me those were... Eol... I swear! My evidence is above - he's been invading my posts from the start! I've been framed!!!
Edit from Grugg: I AM BATMAN!

Topic: Save The Princess recruitment
Subject: xp.
Well I won't deny that it'll be an odd party, but not the weirdest mix I've had by far and it looks like a fun group so I'm excited. Not to mention, I'm never the tank so I'm stoked.
This is a question of little importance really but I was wondering if we are going to be starting with an equal level of experience points or just the minimum needed to be at level 2 for each given class. Unless you have a different system for experience I'm not aware of...?

Topic: ... forth from the Garden... Q&A
Subject: on our way
I'm going to put a post up in the Recruitment threads asking for fresh blood so we can keep this campaign going. For the time being I was just wondering if anyone else is still alive in this game (I know Nomad is) and if they'd be willing on holding on for a month or so so we can get the game going again.

Topic: New Spores of Itanlok Q/A ~ 2
Subject: hmmm...
I find it interesting that all the members of our party (so far, as we've not yet heard from Usso), are in some way shamed. Vanadia's Rerra has not been accepted into the Runemaster community for her gender, especially since the death of her father. Deucalion's Bohen lives above the surface with other races and has short hair. And Loki's Gloin (if that's still the name... its not in the post and he spoke of changing it) doesn't belong in the Khordal community - and even prefers Sylvari! Anyways, I just thought it was curious to see all of our characters as outcasts in some way. Also, all the men have problems with their beards, probably not the most popular thing amidst the Khordaldrum. 
Looking good everybody!

Don't worry your pretty little heads, not only can clerics wear plate, ours will be a cleric of Therassor. +1 Thac0, flaming swords, wielding swords and blunt weapons, as I like to say, you've got a tank in me!

Topic: Save The Princess recruitment
Subject: the good, the bad and the... neutral?
I have one question. Do we have any alignment restriction? I'm guessing considering they are all in a party together there needs to be some congruity so I just wanted to find that out, particularly if I'm starting to allow some cleric ideas to percolate. 
-Dragonblood
EDIT: Alright, it looks like I will be playing a Cleric of Therassor if that works for Al and everyone (unless Meri's sent in a cleric already, obviously).

Topic: Save The Princess recruitment
Subject: is this right?
Alright just for the sake of clarity... I think this is what I see:
Two warrior types: Raven, KoD
One generalist (Fighter thief, figher mage, Mage thief or Bard): Tann (in my opinion Tann, you have both a concept and a completed character so, keep it!)
One cleric/healer type
One Mage type
One Rogue
That leaves a rogue, a mage and a cleric between Meri, Ayrn and myself. I'm not sure if Meri has expressed interest in one of these roles through pm but from the above post i see that Ayrn is willing to fill either mage or rogue. I'd be willing to do cleric or rogue, however i'm flexible and really don't mind playing mage, it just wouldn't be my first choice. As I said above, I have a rogue concept and am starting to try and think up a cleric one. Is all of this correct and do either of you (Meri and Ayrn) have a preference of what you play?
-Dragonblood
EDIT: I've PMed Ayrn, I figure instead of clogging up the recruitment we might as well have some short out of thread deliberations before we make our decisions. I'll try to have a concept to you in the next little while Al, however I can't begin character creation until this weekend. Hope all of this sounds good.

Topic: Save The Princess recruitment
Subject: rogues everywhere.
Alright, here's my plan: I will withdraw my concept and hold onto him for a future game. I see that we have no healing types and that concerns me, I know Meri is playing a cleric in Tek's game and I wouldn't want her to have to play two so allow me to try to imagine up either a cleric or a paladin. I'll be in touch, i just need to have a streak of inspiration...

Topic: Save The Princess recruitment
Subject: another thief!?!?!
Well I had a whole concept for a thief or bard developed but I think maybe we have a few too many thieves.
My concept is an ever-optimistic, extremely well-natured anarchistic cidal who loves wrestling. so maybe i could swing that as a fighter. if not i can return to the drawing board. Anyways just throwing out my thoughts.
Looking forward to it,

Topic: Save The Princess recruitment
Subject: i didn't have a chance from the start!
OK, i have no hope of turning down this opportunity so I might as well sign up while there's spots left. I would love to play if there are enough spots for me, i'm going to need some time to work out a concept but for now if you want an example of my playing quality you can check out the sole posts I've made in Dying of the Light, New Spores of Itanlock - 2, or the game we are both in (which i've been absent from in the last little while) Star Trek: No Good Deed. If you will have me then I will begin working on a concept and piece together a character sheet. Let's see we have a fighter and a mage/thief?... the gears are turning. Oh how I love 2nd Edition.

Topic: New Spores of Itanlok ~ 2 ~ A Short Adventure in Audalis
Subject: Incognito
The museum of Arts and History was overflowing with eager-eyed khords, who all wanted to get their fill of Khordal’s largest sapphire. Sweat and stink of this organism that pushed and pulled against each other, made up of a kaleidoscope of different khords that the sapphire had lured out from their warrens and down to this dusty corner of the Warrens of Rvisthorn... and that was why this was not the place for Odin Foxblade.
*
Odin Foxblade drew attention and hated every minute of it. He was gargantuan for a khord, standing half a head above his brethren. He had broad shoulders that reached out over his barrel chest and thickly muscled arms. The hulking frame seemed almost top heavy on his taut, little legs. He was intimidating to say the least and drew attraction, that is why he had prided himself on his devilish dexterity and unfathomable ability to disappear when he was young and an assassin. But he he didn’t think about those times any more. They were behind him. A dark past that had left shame and guilt on his shoulders and dark and suspicious glances from his fellow khords, no matter how hard he tried, Odin Foxblade could not escape the infamy of his name.
It was his face that kept him recognizable. It was one of those faces nobody forgets, a face that is entirely unattractive to look at. He had been born already unfortunate looking and the battle scars he bore after a century of adventuring didn’t assist.
His brow jutted out far over his eyes laced with lines that told the tales of his age. His left eye was crowned by the silver-white eyebrow wild and overgrown, hairs crawling far beyond any reasonable length and giving him the look of some insanity. This was little aided by the long scar that cut across the other eyebrow leaving nothing more than the random tufts of hair that could grow in the cracks cut in by a knifeblade.
His broad, short nose had seemed flat enough before he had narrowly avoided death by a swinging axe and lost the end of his nose. Now the fleshy mess that had grown back give a certain repugnant impression, that trumped the missing eyebrow. Luckily, his nostrils had been spared just barely and left him free to enjoy his sense of smell without the unfortunate idea of two incomplete nostrils, flapping in the wind of each intaken breath.
The beard that encased his face in a silvery white cloud did little to gain the respect of fellow khords, spotted and splotchy as it was, beginning in thick tufts as high as his cheekbones and only truly filling out into the flowing beard that weaved its way down to his belt line by his jawline. The mouth hidden under the wreath of snowy curls had two scars slashed across it and was now built of lips, bent and intwined in on themselves, creating an odd mess that had left his speech slow and particular, and cut off any chances of a sweet kiss with the beautiful female khords he had conveniently sworn himself off of.
This distinct face was a marker that screamed out to every passer by that this khord was Odin Foxblade: the goblinfriend, the orcbrother... the khord killer. Odin shuddered to think of the darkness that followed his footsteps and reminded him of the regret he faced every moment and the pain he had caused at every turn in the path of youth.
He knew he still bore suspiscion and dislike from many khords who recognized him, as most did. Some even held a deep hatred, he had no hope of alleviating. However things had become much calmer since he had slain the young, black dragon in protection of a khord village, close by. He had gained some credit for the change of heart he’d experienced, though most were still skeptical. Odin sighed, agreeing that they could not be blamed for their anxious reactions that he gleaned at every outing.
This outing was no exception, in fact it was the worst he’d experienced yet. It’d been ages since he’d made any type of journey beyond the small village that had warily accepted him in. To be specific it’d been fifty years. Not a lifetime or anything but enough to make his Sylvari chain mail, something else that didn’t please most khords, a little tight around the belly and Foxtooth, his beloved rapier that got grimaces from the standard ax-wielding and hammer-holding khords, seem foreign in his well worn hands. But he refused to travel unequipped and it had been no short pilgramage coming to this corner of the Warrens of Rvisthorn just to see the damn gem. Odin sighed, he had sworn off so many things but still could not resist the lure of gems and Sapphires had always been his favourite. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity, to see the biggest gem in all of Khordal, and so Odin had packed his bags, geared himself up and faced the open road with a nervous look.
More than once, the stoney floor had been his home at night when an inn had turned him out for bearing the name Odin Foxblade. In some select towns he had had to face the small stones whipped from the small hands of small children, egged on by their angry parents, similarily small next to Odin. It had taken all the will that remained in him to resist retaliation. The entire town could have crumbled beneath a couple quick swipes from his faithful Foxtooth... but he had stopped such murderous tendencies. He would restrict himself to smiting down only evil and only if he had too. He had been lucky enough to turn to the light of Rydor... if he, blackest of hearts, could find religion, couldn’t anybody?
*
Odin attempted to make himself as small as it was possible, pulling up his hood over his head. Perhaps he could avoid notice... but it was unlikely. He sighed deeply and looked about him at the other enthusiastic Khords, if only he could enjoy this moment, untainted by their prejudice. If they understood, how loyal he was to the teachings of Rydor and how his heart had been cleansed by the god’s purifying light they could enjoy the day more too. It could be so spectacular, Odin thought, each of these khords coming together in appreciation of one of the most beautiful gems they would ever see.
Odin looked out from under his hood, crouching down so he didn’t stand a head above his brothers. The closeness caused some anxiety but he continued to breath deeply and observe the people that surrounded him. He quickly shot glances around the museum looking for the fastest way out... an old habit he’d never lost.
They filed forward slowly, jostling each other eagerly, standing on their tip toes, hoping to get a glimpse of the glorious stone. Odin stayed alert of those around him, he knew he would get a good look at it at some point, until then he had to be sure that he was safe. Familiar faces had to be avoided at all costs, his was too familiar as it was.
He caught eye of the heavy security that filled all the gaps in the crowd, ready to pounce on any wily, wiseguy. Odin smiled, remembering that he would have, without a doubt, been trying to steal the sapphire a century ago.
Observing the men he wondered gently how he would have snatched it with the least amount of struggle. There was probably a Dispel Magic spell on the museum. Or perhaps there wasn’t which meant that the Sapphire should already be gone. Odin’s grin reappeared, no there was certainly some protection against magic in the room... there had to be. Some sort of distraction would have been necessary and a sniper... maybe too. Knock out all the guards as fast as possible. You’d need people who had little concern for the lives of bystanders, it would have to be a quick kill and if the crowd caught some fire i could be excused as collateral. Odin and another would’ve had to weave their way through. His size would’ve mattered little, he was sure he’d have been able to make his way to the stone rapidly, and then exit rapidly with the sapphire. And that’s only if you couldn’t get magic or an inside man. Odin sighed and pushed the thoughts out of his head, reprimanding himself angrily for enjoying the thoughts so thoroughly.
Odin watched the guards slowly. That would be a job to have he thought to himself, protect the jewel. He would get to see it each day and other than, little would be required of him but to stand amongst the milling khords. He knew he was experienced enough to eliminate any threat... or was he? Did he still have it, he thought. He pushed the ideas out of his head, remembering he would never be hired on account of his face, it would’ve been assumed that he was plotting a robbery without a doubt.
Odin listened with half an ear to the speech belted out proudly by the museum’s curator. He rose to his full heiht and used his toes to raise his head completely above the crowd. He watched the cloth fall away, falling down to the floor and revealing the sapphire. Odin held his breath. It was gorgeous, the most beautiful he’d ever seen. He had worked for gemthiefs, he had robbed gemthiefs, he had been a gemthief and this outshone every other one he’d seen in his career. It was beyond compare and left Odin standing still, his fists clenched tightly and his eyes plastered open, his lips ajar and his breathing stilled. This was the reason he had come here, and now he knew it was worth it.

Topic: Season of the Witch Q/A
Subject: Hey Everybody...
Alright, I have a (almost) complete character in! Just thought I'd swing by and say hello to everyone. Looking forward to playing with you guys.
Also, thought I'd add to what Meri said in response to Ion. The time you've spent relaxing round the fire here at the inn is nothing compared to the stories you've told. What I mean by that is this: We aren't going to judge you on how new your face is for a couple reasons.
1. The time you've spent here on the inn has nothing to do with the time you've spent gaming.
2. And to revamp an old saying, its not quantity... its quality.
Yeah, in the end it doesn't even matter how many posts you've stapled up on the boards here, what we care about it your gaming and your writing. You've shown, through various methods, that you clearly give a crap about creating something worth while with the rest of us and that means you get to stay! Not to mention you taste good.
By the way, anyone who's got Meri calling them "Ion Baby", must be family. Welcome in, shed that self-conscious skin and join the fun. You're a good player and the inn can only make you better, as I and many others have learned.

Topic: In a WORLD...
Subject: and that's why...
You run it on the inn! We always love more quality games. I'm totally busy right now but I've had the idea of running a campaign of two parties pitted against each other for a long time. Each would be in their own thread and have their own Q/A. We would establish the honour system regarding each group not viewing the other's game thread.
I think it'd be a lot of fun to have a game of cat and mouse here on the inn, and deliciously fun for any DM: its just throwing two small groups of players in a barrel (or fantasy world as you have it) and watching them battle it out. Anyways, I think it'd be an awesome game to lurk in on if you were to set it up... hint hint.
I know you're busy starting two games right now Shield, but I don't doubt you'd have more than enough quality players if you ever decided to fire the game up. In the mean time, good luck with the world and your two games.
See you round the inn.
