I'd duel you! The last one we did was awesome. Didn't we both die?

KitrallStreamrippler

Yeah, we did. :D Alright, post a character sheet when you can, I'll post one when I can, and we can discuss the scenario. :)

(Dag, same goes for you, if you'd still like to duel.)
A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of woes and shattered shields, when the age of men comes crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we fight!

Rusvul

Okay! Do you think you could do a steampunk setting, with basic firearms and such? That'd be cool.

KitrallStreamrippler

Yeah, that's fine. As to firearms: how about just flintlock pistols/rifles to keep it simple? (If you want something else, that is totally fine, though. Just no automatic weapons, AKs, etc.)

Oh, absolutely. Flintlocks and other guns of the era: Cool. Anything else: Meh. Probably shouldn't exist IMO.

Right. I will make a sheet. I'm going to try a completely different character this time.

Name: Imperialist High Admiral Zane
Species: Jack Russel Terrier (About fox size. Non-canon, but hey, neither is steampunk)
Clothing: Red and black old British Royal Navy style longcoat and bicorne hat. Gold trim on everything. Very fancy without being impractical.
Weapons: Traditional naval sabre, as well as a standard Imperialist prod- taking the form of a dullened, double-pointed harpoon strapped to his arm, capable of arcing electricity to any carbon life within several feet. Fires with high voltage, but low amperage, so as to be painful and potentially knock you out, but is usually not fatal. They are very volatile, if not controlled with the proper expertise, it can backfire in much higher amperage and potentially kill the beast wielding it.

Armor: Minimal. His jacket does have a boiled leather lining, however, so he has at least some measure of protection.
Personality: A stiff, by the book officer. Sworn to apprehend thieves, pirates, and enemies of the realm. All so called "Anarchists" (Anybody who does not comply directly and immediately with the Imperialists) is immediately declared an enemy, and all enemies are eradicated. Zane believes all is for the good of his country. He is absolutely true to his beliefs, completely honest, and is always polite, without fail. Even when issuing death threats, which he does not do idly or casually. Generally a goodbeast, even if fighting for flawed ideals.
Age: Somewhere in his young middle seasons. Old enough to have risen through the ranks, but still not far from his prime.
Physical description: agh, is this nescessary? A dude, not particularly muscled, but not weak. Fairly standard everything, blah blah blah, I just got bored of writing. No scars, tattoos, or distinguishing features.
History: Born as a noble, he enlisted in the Imperial Sky Navy at a young age, proceeding to rise through the ranks until he became an Admiral. He continues to fly the skies, enforcing his law and the Imperialist definition of justice.

Perhaps the situation is he has been challenged to a duel by a criminal of some kind? A duel for honor. Maybe like this?

A criminal has been apprehended, tried, and found guilty. Said criminal points out legitimate flaws in the charges after the fact, as he/she had no part in the debate. Law system is unable to come to a satisfactory result, blah blah blah, creature placing charges (Zane) speaks harshly to criminal, criminal states that he/she is absolutely not to be treated in such a manner, according to law so and so, and challenges Zane to a duel of honor. They have both insulted each other, and whoever wins will be free of all consequences. Officially, the duel is to the first blood, but secretly they both plan to kill each other.

Sound good? I'm open to any suggestions/modifications. If you don't want to play a criminal, hah, alright, I can understand.


KitrallStreamrippler

Unfortunately my brain is a little fritzy at te moment, so I only actually comprehended about half of that, and retained even less. But what I do retain and understand sounds good. (I'll have to post tomorrow when my sleep is recharged.) Nice choice of animal, btw. We've got two jack russel mixes- nice dogs but REALLY energetic.

Aye, I'd like to duel ya!

Name: Adrain Burgstand
Age: 21
Species: Stoat
Weapons: Mace and chain, but usually uses a dirk. Wears basic leather clothing, and a simple haversack.

Also, can we not plan what happens? I wanna know how it turns out! Plus, we should battle in the ruins of Kotir! (it's drier now, only the basement is flooded)

Edit: personality: not cruel, but doesn't leave his opponents alive. Generally a loner, but sometimes follows hordes when scavengings hard.

@Blaggut: Sure, sounds good. I'll have a character sheet up as soon as may be.

@Rus: (Now that I can think more clearly and understand that whole post) That character is awesome and the scenario is really cool. (Kinda reminds me of Les Mis, actually.) Would you like to write the opening post or should I? I'll have a character sheet up soon.

I can write the opening post. I will do so tomorrow morning, or as soon as you have your sheet.

'Kay. Hopefully I'll have a character by then...
