this is a thread to attract SE4 forumers to the first Dungeon Oddessy roleplay thread

Narf -
Personally, I've mostly been posting things with a rule of "don't contradict anyone - at most, expand/temper what was said". I'm personally inclined to let any undecided aspect of MOTMA be decided the first time someone mentions it in the MOTMA thread in a non "ooc" conversation or narration, and view this thread more as an area to bounce ideas around or coordinate with yourself and Krsqk.

Also, it isn't a clear majority - my answer was basically a long winded Version of "depends on another factor not yet decided". By the rule I've been using, all Krsqk's post did was say that most people are superstitious and have misconceptions about how magic is run; superstition goes with the setting, and misconceptions are common of any skilled labor - many people get their impression of lawyers from TV (common set: Lawyers are: Sleazy, Showy, Greedy), not personal experience, and TV bears little resemblance to reality. Many in the modern world have misconceptions about lawyers; many in MOTMA have misconceptions about magic.

At least, that's my view of things.

i've been mostly thinking what's written goes, it's just that i was writing with a certian unstated assumption, so i wanted to check veiws. you make sense with that missconception stuff. *throws the ball at Krsqk* ie; do you agree with what Jack said? if not, what is your basis for the superstition? i hereby make you the RPM for this, unless you say it's purple monkey's.

as for the minatuar's, i invented them and their height hasn't been really mentioned in-RP, so that could be changed simply by changing the about. in the case of the minatuar's, there height was setting off my sense of redicualious.

New post. No dialogue; just a narration of the bandits' previous and current state.

Let's see - by my count, it's your turn, narf.

If you are running short of ideas, Narp has a bow and Jack can retrieve most the arrows - those that land in sight. Likewise, Narp can always make devious suggestions, such as asking Jack to start teleporting people a thousand feet straight up or recall some of those golems in the forest for new orders, suggesting Arthur play around with freezing rain or lightning, or talking to the skeleton crew (servants?) left behind on how to properly defend the manor.

not short on ideas - sunday just came along faster than i thought it was. then, of course, the forum went down. i'll post today.

Narf - looking forward to it.

SJ - That game is sooo unrealistic; people don't splatter when they fall long distances onto hard surfaces, they hit terminal velocity long before they reach a speed they'd splatter at.
