View Full Version : [RP Campaign] Transport from the Necrocamp
So here we have the thread for the planed RP event, but first some words of what it is about:
As there is a pact between the Sect Camp and the Necromancers Camp, where is said that they trade seven coffers of meat against seven coffers of swampweed once a month. One of this transports we want to organise in a RP Event.
My plan (so far) is to start at Necromancers Camp, my character (Huntingmistress Niphred) will instruct some hunter to charge the meat on a barrow and wil bring it to the Sect Camp with them. Also there will be the transport of the swampweed back to the Necromancers Camp.
so far we would need:
2-3 hunters (or other members of the NC who want to join)
2-3 people at the Sect Camp
There could be people x-ed, in that case hunters would be my part, but for the novices we need a member of the Sect Camp (at best someone who has some experience).
So far the main thing.
An idea to make this a little bit more interesting whould be an attacking creature, wolves, maybe a warg ore something like that, which ist attracted by the meat. In this case there could be someone needed to write this creatures. I could do it too, but I think it would be more fun to have someone else to do this.
So things we have to talk about is,
When are we going to do this?
Will there be an attack?
and of course
Who will join us?

I can roleplay the creature. So what'll it be? The track leads from the Necro area to the Swamp, so it means we could meet: wargs, razors, wolves, shadowbeasts, etc. I think razors are the fastest, dangerous, and by extension, the most interesting creatures to meet on one's way.
I say we do it in the evening, not necessarily at 10 (or 9, if you're German), it could even be earlier -- provided we've enough travels. I imagine we'll need about three -- one for the starting place (necro camp), one for the attack site (I presume eastern forest (if we go with razors, we'll just roleplay the attack in the camp)), and one for the swamp.

unfortunately you might have to do that one without me, tomorrow i will be leaving for about two weeks..
I will be all tied up this week, but just about any evening next week at 10 pm GMT +2 (Germany is GMT +1, I guess?) would do.
PS.
Since the users of the English Minenkolonie come from different time zones, I think it would be a good idea to write down what time zone we're talking date-time in.
Im not yet a member of any guild im just a renegate but i wanna join :D
Ok, I corrected the list of interessted persons.
For me an evening next week is ok,
Next Monday i can say, which day would be best for me...
Which would be for you?
For the creature:
I think a razor would be tricky for some hunters, but not too hard.
My only problem is, that you Gunnegarm play a hunter, who will fight against this razor,
in my oppinion it would be better if someone who does not fight writes the creature.
I could /x the razor, if necessary.

Well, in that case, I really don't know. We'll have to wait and see if more people show up. If they do, someone else can RP the razor. If not, I'll do some serious roleplay gymnastics and fill both the roles.
Hmmm i a shadowbeast would be more suited as the creature :rolleyes: just saying. And not just an ordinary shadowbeast. Some cursed beast that has killed many people or something like that.
It occurs to me that a "shadowbeast that has killed many people" would be much too strong in consideration of the chars which will escort the transport. All the chars are inexperienced and shadowbeasts are some of the strongest creatures in the colony. A razor would be appropriate, I think.
^Yeah, a regular Shadowbeast alone would be capable of taking out multiple characters, not even talking about some kinda magical monster or something. Just make it a Racor or some Snappers.
Or actually we could have a bunch of Guards, Shadows and diggers, going rogue, trying to interrupt the transaction. Just saying

Canon-wise, razors are far stronger than shadowbeasts.

I am a water magician so i'm no use here.
good to know :confused:
:cool:
Ok let's resume what was written here, before the server crash.
Hermann will write the Razor, right?
Most of you wanted to do the transport this week, but i've to talk to millesimus before, so that he can contact Niphred to do the transport.
A new info, for me frideay could be difficult,
an the weekend is bad because of the CT.
Did I forget something?

I say Thursday.
I agree with Gunnegarm Thursday would be good:)
It's the only day left this week,
So then I hope I can organize a meeting with Millesimus, or he allows us, to do it without writing this in RP.
So An other important thing, what about the Sectcamp?
Are you still in Ormos and do you have time tomorrow?
I also contacted Alegres, who made the deal with Millesimus.
is there anyone who has no time tomorrow?
Ok!
I'm in too... I'll be in the swampcamp polishing sword like usually :D
I thought that was done already :o If not, you can count me in too :)
Ok, Alegres also allowed me to x some swampcampers
and i talked to millesimus, so it's ok when i just wirte he told niphred do do the transport.
I'm going to be online the whole evening from now.

Where do we start the RP, where do we get attacked by a razor, and where does it end?
I'll talk to some hunters in the necro camp, we fill the barrow and leave the camp.
The attack will be in the southern valley, the eastern forest is possible too, but i'd prefer the valley.
then we go to the sect camp leave the meat there and get the swampweed and go back to the necro camp.
I think the way back will only be written in one or two sentences, otherwise this will take too much time.
I would say we leave the necrocamp not later than 8 pm (german time)
I'm going to write a post in the Necro camp to start the transport.
I wrote a post in the Nocromancers camp now.

Um, let's just wait for it to be 10 so we can get some travels. I'm down to my last one.
Gunnegarm

Yeah, I think the next one should be a teensy bit more organised.
I don't even know how to say anything without it saying: Sayed says, blabla. But as soon as i learn, i shall participate in one of these RPs. :p
Gunnegarm
11.08.2011, 21:40
Right. I'm putting myself in charge of organising the next RP. Tonight's was really disorganised, not to mention it was far too quick.
so i waited this shit and you aren't comming anymore in the swamp? :))the crates of swampweed are ready to leave the camp :))

We're there.
Biggest part of the chaos in this RP action is caused by the players, not by lack of organisation.
To avoid chaos in RP it is important to consider the order during the game. So after your post you have to wait until all other players posted too. Then you are "allowed" to post again. Thats the only way to interact useful with each other.
Furthermore you must not write what the razor is doing! There is one player who writes the razor via the /x function. You should just write what your character is doing in interaction with the razor or other characters.
for example:
player 1
player 2
player 3
razor
player 1
player 2
player 3
razor
player 1
...
Group RP without decent organisation is hard. Next time we should learn from today's mistakes.

It's caused by both. Both are forms of disorganisation.
:)) well i think that some players should delete his post if another one posted something... we have some example in the swamp camp :))
Gunnegarm

That has been done and done again tonight, we've all deleted at least one post we've made, but that fixes nothing. We've been lazy and remiss in planning this.
In this case the chaotic course of the RP is chiefly caused by confused posting by the players... including by you Gunnegarm.
Its not necessary to delete your posts again and again if all players consider the order.
Gunnegarm
11.08.2011, 22:13
We all have our faults. Tonight was just an experiment. There will be other times, perhaps with actually *competent* people in charge of organising.
Long live the king!! :)
bleah this is always going to happend.... the rp sistem doesn't inform you when you post something that someone allready posted while you were writeing..
<<<<sry for bad english>>>
Ok,
I see, that I made one mistake in organiing this,
that was to think of experienced players, like there are in the german MK.
I'm sorry that this has went out of control,
but I think we all learned from this.

I'm writing that critique first thing in the morning. I'd do it now, but I really have to go.
If anyone's saved the logs, please post them, I need them for the critique.
