Checking IMMEDIATELY, Enemy Standoo -- some things might have been wholly frozen, but we've reached a point where many could continue.

I STRONGLY encourage anyone who believes they have standing orders that didn't get process to PM me or post them in the OOC thread.

orders found Enemy Standoo -- the delay in deliberation and relatively slow flow of time during the battle put these 4-5 pages back for me!

I'll process these and the attolian orders promptly, I was chomping at the bit to process stuff, but this big battle froze everything!!!

 

[Enemy Standoo]

CALL TO ARMS!

I know everyone was hatching plans about fisher mother and had forces picked out to help the firebeards fight her. I'm asking people to Post to the google doc the new task forces (I'll have a spot at the top of the doc for this) because people with casualties might revise task forces.

The dorfs want these monsters dealt with, and they are a threat to the colony! rally!

LINK TO GOOGLE-DOC HERE:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AaPtjJWu5ougVgaGkkrQgh9Q7OAqT6KMEy0-PKwDLII/edit

Also, if you are sending goods back to the old world (or anything else) there is also a section on the doc for that. When five factions are sending stuff the ship departs.

 

[General Deth Glitch]

^ That. The Dorfs need you and we will make it worth your while (in the long run... we dont really have... well... anything right now to promise)

 

[Prince Vaethorion]

Hi, I was away for a few weeks, but am back. I will catch up. Hope everyone is well!

 

[Beckoncall]

WE LOVE YOU VAE!

 

[SpiralErrant]

Beckoncall Heyitsjiwon uh guys didn't we already decide who got what from the theatre district a while ago via pm? Just saying cus I looked it over and I'm already sending some of those emeralds away with the Hatzburk dwarves and everyone mostly got a bunch of different stuff than is said in the IC thread. And it seriously effects all our current wealth if we change it now :/

 

[Beckoncall]

I thought so too... but @heyitsjwon thought not. SpiralErrant please if you can post the loot division as it was and I'll delete the new (wrong) post.

 

[Heyitsjiwon]

Did we? If so, then my bad. It slipped my mind completely.

 

[Beckoncall]

Let me know how this shakes out

 

[SpiralErrant]

Just posting the final list and copy pasting, I think it worked out as:
Attolians:
4 wealth
1 unit of cut emeralds
the grand horn
2 golden horns
giant marionettes
land claims to expand their current districts

Victorians:
Harpselith
Stage plays
masaic and bas-relief building
sunstone
ancient armour and weapons

Tyren:
4 wealth
1 unit cut emeralds
3 units ancient instruments
use of 1 building as a shop.
(though it wasn't discussed much they're also putting forward that should the colony expands past or along the river they'd get land claims closest to expand their own direct territory the same way the Attolians and highborn have)

Highborn:
Land claims to expand their current district.
No direct loot claims but the tyren are willing to share the ancient instruments in exchange for music lessons from their bard.

 

[Heyitsjiwon]

Ahh, yep. That looks good to me!

 

[Beckoncall]

Enemy Standoo : when you get the chance, respond to the standoff about blood magic being used on the field.

Onri Advises that if the Victorians proceed to sanctify the battlefield with Cassandra opposed, the blood rite may still succeed and empower the demon -- but it is also possible it'll override and purify the field.

More importantly, tensions between your factions are elevating. (action needed) when you have time address the mud elf base situation as well.

RELATIONS BETWEEN ATTOLIANS AND VICTORIANS BECOMES STRAINED.

 

[Heyitsjiwon]

The potential outcomes of the situation:

1. Neither does anything: Blood Fountain gets stronger

2. Victorians Purify, Cassandra opposes: Blood Fountain Gets stronger or Nothing Happens

3. Victorians Purify, Cassandra does her thing: Cassandra gets stronger (and more leverage against the Blood Fountain)

4. Victorians Purify, Cassandra concedes: Nothing Happens unless the Blood Fountain does something too

 

[SpiralErrant]

He's in China these days I think but we've been working on a collab that should be going up soonish.

 

[Beckoncall]

thanks for the help, SpiralErrant !!!

 

[Beckoncall]

Coming Soon:

Fishmen/Fennec

Operations at the mud-elf village

Gnolls?

 

[Beckoncall]

Just so you guys know -- the RP ain't stalled -- I had a kickass weekend, and it in turn kicked my ass. You'll see more as time goes on. I also wanted to give the Victorians some time to compromise/plot something... but I shall proceed as normal. Hope everyone had a good weekend.
