Basically, a roleplay wherein posting is not expected to happen quickly... for those of us who are new to RP, have busy schedules off the internet, are just plain slow at posting, or who are interested for whatever reason. ;)

Here's what we've got so far... I'll keep this top post updated as plotting and events occur over the course of the RP.

The RP thread.

Rules
Maximum of THREE characters per participant.
This RP is attempted canon; if it isn't in the books, it's best left out here.
There will be no specific posting order. All plotting will be done in this thread.

Plot
A group of Redwallers and Long Patrol hares journey across the sea in search of treasure, a riddle as their only guide.

I've sat here staring at this for several minutes, trying to think of how/if to respond. lol, I want so badly to jump around and scream, "omg, me, me, meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" but the whole "staring at a screen blankly for a few days" makes me so...undecided. Dx

I lose interest if things move too slowly. Know what I mean...? lol
'Paws of wrong meet paws of right,
As autumn leaves would turn.
Fates entangled in dawn's cruel light,
Where the lizard fires once burned.
The shadows of evil walk with thee, thy babe,
Dare ye wish it not to be true?
Wouldst thou seek the path of right,
If it brought only pain to you?'

A good, slow RP would be great for me. Good to take things slow once in a while. I don't have a plot idea yet, but I'll think on one.

I would like to join its okay, a slow RP has more chance to get a real story going, and not just killing an entire army in 4 posts.

Para - I know what you mean, no worries. ^^

W0NWILL and Thomas - cool beans, guys! What kind of story would you be interested in? Something with a lot of adventuring, or something more centered around one area? We could go pirating at sea, or solving riddles at the Abbey, or doing something hare-ish at Salamandastron, or or or.... all kinds of things. I'm getting excited now. ;D Anything you're interested in particular?

Maybe a group of Salamandastron hares is going after a vermin ship? Combine the first and third of your ideas, y'see. Or maybe, a ship of Redwallers and Long Patrol hares are going after a treasure mentioned in a riddle. I'm thinking for my own ideas.

DOCTOR: How is that news to anyone?

-Sometime later, the second mate was unexpectedly rescued by the subplot, which had been trailing a bit behind the boat (and the plot). The whole story moved along.

Thomas Barkshield

I like the vermin chasing idea, but perhaps salamandastron could also be under siege?

Rainshadow

  Ooh, I'd love a good slow RP!  Lol, I feel as if I'm not on enough to post in those fast-moving ones.  :P

I think I'm going to join this, since I'm the slow posting RP player since of late. XD

And I like the idea of Riddles in Redwall

DanielofRedwall

I'd be interested in joining, if you are fine with that.
Received mostly negative reviews.

You've got my attention.  :) Figures all of the "oldies" are coming back when it's labeled slow.  ;)

Great, welcome aboard, all of you! Looks like we've got enough people, haha. ;D So onto thinking of a plot. Of the suggestions so far, I think W0NWILL's Redwallers + Long Patrol hares sailing after something from a riddle is a good combination. That sounds potentially really busy for one thread but I'm sure we could make it work. What do you think? You chappies who just joined up, what are your preferences?

This is likely going to take rather a long time to complete, let's use a plot you're all interested in! ;)
