Roleplay / Re: Chapter 1: The Menace
August 29, 2014, 10:53:32 AM
Okay I will be starting this back in again in the rotation. We will finish out chapter 1 as I originally planned, And then sort of 'reboot' for chapter 2. Anyone that wants to take over one of the current 'NPC's in amber' just give me heads up, Just PM me :D

SIGIL


QuoteKnowledge on type of energy
]Rolled 1d20 : 9, total 9[

*The energy is unknown to you although it does appear to be mystical in nature, you can't identify what type of magic created this.*

QuoteManipulate energy
]Rolled 1d20 : 20, total 20[

*You attempt to manipulate the energies, you are somewhat successful but find yourself completely drained with every attempt. when you
return to the task again, you find that nothing has changed with all your efforts.*







*Not sure when you were attempting to this I'm assuming that it's back to back with the previous use of your magic, so each roll is at a -5 due to
exasperation and lack of energy. If I'm reading this wrong just let me know*






QuoteAttempt to see if the artifact responded to BK's magic
]Rolled 1d20 : 17, total 17 - 5 (tired) = 12[

*The artifact only glows for a moment then returns to normal, you have determined that it is partially magic in nature*

QuoteAttempt to read tarot cards for guidance.
]Rolled 1d20 : 18, total 18 -5 (tired) = 13[

*You lay the cards before in the traditional manner you were trained to read them. The cards spill before you as turn each one, but the readings make no sense, as if everything is confused. You fumble the cards back into your pocket bewildered by the reading..*



BOOKKEEPER



QuoteTosses the lit stone to the south (not that we know direction, but I'm just giving you someplace to choose haha)






SCENARIO:



Your still exhausted but this neutral word bears no strain on your abilities. The stone lights up a bright phosphorous white as it is flung into the darkness, the stone strikes the ground landing with a rustle on the forest floor. You see the area lit up around the magicked stone, it appears to be a path of some sort leading into a rather dense forest. You appear to be in a grove of some sort in the midst of dense woods. For a brief moment you swear you saw something peering at you through the trees, a series of deep guttural growls emanates from the forest...

mmm love python :D.

Nice layout now I understand more where you are going with this. So why not do it similar to how the original NWN's did it. Using constructors to setup up base class access, of course that was C++ and left a lot to be desired lol.

Book Keeper focused his energies on the task at hand, asking... no demanding that the universe obey his commands. He knew the power at his command sometimes he reveled in it, but mostly he feared it. Feared he would speak a word that would bring harm, or even worse death. It was this fear that kept him on the edge of control. He could always see the possibility of loosing that control, he dared not look over the edge or even acknowledge its existence, but it did restrain him, he knew that. It kept him from his full potential, the total power that he commanded if unleashed could be devastating. Even for his young age, he was wiser than most gave him credit for.

That's why he never quite believed in himself, till now...

The feeling was intense, unlike anything he had ever felt before. Confidence surged through his being as his eyes began to glow green with the power he was feeling.  A flow of pure unadulterated energy flowed through his being, he felt the universe at his beck and call. HE FELT LIKE A GOD!! As he spoke the word 'Shrink' he could see the strands of energy that flowed to the non-functioning android, he could see the translucent energy as he shifted and compressed the very molecules with his own thinking.

'No...Something is wrong', the young boy gasped his eyes flickering with the power he felt. Something was different he could feel it. He watched in horror as the energies took on a life of their own, circling outward from the android, it now stretched out wrapping itself around the room, shaking the foundations of reality. He could see Sigil being enveloped by the swirling vortex. Then all went black....

-------------------
You awaken to the face of a perplexed Sigil, he stares at you indignantly with a hit of concern on his face. Mindsense stands nearby her eyes apparently scanning you.

'All scans are normal', she says looking at Sigil.
Sigil nods
'You were out for a bit..there', he says helping you to your feet.

You open your eyes and stand shakily to your feet, you view the area around you. A single campfire sits in the middle of what appears to be a rather sparse forest, the ground is hard and grey and the smell of burning wood assaults your senses.

The first thing you notice is unconscious forms of three of your party. Odie, Specter & Nao around them a bluish energy field radiates around the three... 


--------

The entire party has no clue what has happened.  Each of you awakened to the same imagery (Book Keeper being last), and have no clue what the energy field is that radiates around the the other three, it appears to be a force field, as any access to the other companions seems impossible. It is currently dusk and the fire seems to be the only source of light and heat.

News / Re: Drive to move back to our domain name
March 16, 2014, 11:30:21 AM
The changes that I'm bringing to the server or going to be quite massive, focusing on turning us into a pure RP site, which is where we seem to be going. Is this the case, or should I include some other direction in my thinking process?

As far as the server is concerned I agree we should move soon, I already have a dedicated server, however the upkeep is slightly higher, taking us to approx 25-30 dollars in both increased speed as well as being able to use more advanced tech's like node.js.  Also I'm working on an idea which could be community sponsored to bring in income to the site through a pay-pal style donation. More on that later:

Back to the thinking at hand a complete re-write maybe in order, in would benefit having a better way to keep track of RP's on the site as well as introducing other mechanics to game play such as actual grid based maps, to be played in real or turn based time. I do not see SMF as being able to handle the load on the database that I'm proposing.

I do apologize for the length of time that it is taking to get all this done, just know that I believe in this community strongly! And want to see a more productive and successful site with the current momentum we have obtained.

Some Hours Later:

Seth brushed the remnants of what had happened from his mind, he needed to focus on the stone he held in his hand. His eyes lit up as he recited various incantations to attempt to unlock the secrets of the 'artifact' as it had been dubbed by the group.  Bookkeeper had returned finding no evidence of what had happened to Specter, his main focus now was attempting to revive the now non-functioning Odie unit. But none of his power words were working, he sighed briefly, taking a rest from his endeavors.

Mindsense sat studying a computer they found further into the tower. she stared at it keeping in mind what had happened to Odie, reluctant to try anything  rather than simply observe the information that populated the screen. Not far from her sat Nao, his mind filled with the horrors that might lay ahead, other than that he felt particularly 'stabby'.

As the group sat preoccupied. lights suddenly started to flash around them. The walls lit up as a pulsating pattern moved away from them further into a unknown explored area just ahead...

The panel that Mindsense was studying suddenly turned a bright red, as a distorted face appeared on the screen, the audio was even more distorted as it spoke one word..."RUN!"

[Going to Move Forward]

It wasn't the pushy old man that was the problem, nor the exotic dancing elf, it wasn't really even the very odd monk that seemed bothered with the fact that he even had to talk to you. It was the changing, the having to put on these rags. Not even form fitting, barely clinging to your frame. You watched somewhat perturbed as your belongings fit into that tiny bag of holding...

[Description]
The doors close behind the group, Before you lies a downward spiraling staircase, it descends pasts torches that slowly begin to light themselves as you pass them. You hear screeching and scittering as you make your way past the final set of stairs. You approach a large door, that is not bolted or secured in any way, large letters adorn the facing of the doors they spell in the common language "The Pit"....

Your attempt to break the grapple is quite futile, as you feel the grip grow tighter, you realize it's getting harder to breathe.

(You're being grappled from behind and your arms are still pinned. DC:13)

Your creeping pays off, for not long after you begin this maneuver you hear another sneeze much louder than the first and a short sniffle soon follows it. But then the sun is blotted out, not by a tree or even a cloud your realize but by something really big... Behind you..

You suddenly feel yourself being lifted in the air your arms pinned at your sides.

(You are being grappled from behind)

Ludar watched as something attacked, he was curious as to what they were defending, but later that tale would be told he assumed. Readying himself he drew his mace and approached passing the bard, he continued on until he could see where the rats were, he could see the Paladin far ahead, but could only distinguish the sounds of something squealing then apparently dying. He stopped not far from the entrance. He called upon his deity and sought to bless those around him.

Move ahead approx 20 feet with mace and shield in ready position.

Pij was hot, really hot, the sweat on his brow protested against his persistent wiping. Not like it did any good, the heat was unbearable and his head felt like an old frying pan, the cast iron ones to be specific, like his grandmother used to use.

He remembered back when she used to let him smell the eggs as they cooked, her using barely a drop of oil. "Don't touch it.", she would say. Of course Pij never listened, he was never prone to being obedient it just wasn't in his nature. So often he would get burned, never really learned his lesson, not really. It was therefore not really an issue for him to leave the group, he didn't care about rusty old relics, he wasn't even sure why they had come to the museum. Yeah it was the only real attraction in town, through really it wasn't much of one at all. It was the gust of cool air that caught his attention...

Finding the source proved uneventful save for the handful of other students who had had apparently the same idea. "Great" he thought to himself, before dryly coughing into the air. "What's up?", he said trying to remain cool and collective. He knew most of the students, not really by name, but could recognize their faces. He scratched his head briefly as another gust of air from the vent washed over his now tepid brow, at least he wasn't hot anymore, bored but not hot.

"What what you need me already, pffft. Fine fine...", you hear shuffling noises, then you see a large book pop up in the view you see in the crystal. You see the old make arcane gestures with his hands. Suddenly the image changes before your eyes. You see a large rock with a rather large man sitting on it, he sneezes loudly... The image fades and the slot opens again.

[spoiler][Spot check result]
You see nothing out of the ordinary, everything appears to be exactly where it's suppose be. Ahh what a beautiful day.

[Listen check result]
You hear a rather large sneeze, not coming from the crystal you are viewing.[/spoiler]

"Hulius is the name, Hulius Maximus Snorm, the third, and what are you allowed to wear, ye ask? Did ye not read the pamphlet?" The mans face suddenly changed it was not longer sheepish, it was more ruffian looking now. "What, what ye don't have the mind to read my pamphlet? Eyes of Thirty Holy Men!", he says while making a weird gesture with his hand. "Fine, fine I'll explain ye one more time, but this time pay ye heed to my tale!"

Hulius stops for a moment, looks at the book, then looks back at Kyras. "And what be ye class? Fighter? Knight? Bard? Lunatic? Well, well??"

Book Keeper
You release the power word and the room around you suddenly changes suddenly before your eyes you see Sigil appear, or at least a half visible version of the wizard.


Sigil
As you attempt to make contact with whatever is in the astral, you feel the entire plane around you reverberate, as you here the word "RESTORE!" you feel yourself being pulled no.. shoved toward the location of the sound all the air around begins to hum violently as you feel ripped from the astral, you try to scream but nothing comes out of your mouth... you feel exhausted. Its this moment that you see Book Keeper, his face looking surprisingly at you.


MindSense
"I'm not sure I know this warlock."

"No, no I'm sure that you do not, although you will, you have and you won't know him."

"Where am I?"

The lady looked at you for a moment then smiled again, "Perhaps you're wondering where you are?" she smiles even more so, slightly giggling her face locked in soft yet comical look. "Of course you are, you are...how can I put this? You are in your on being. I guess that's the best way to put although it is a bit metaphysical. Oh all right, here take this, it will help you find the answers you seek. Remember young one all is not as it seems. Here or in 'Reality'..."

Suddenly room shakes violently, you feel the air humming at the same time you feel yourself being pulled. "Ah and so it begins remember what I told you young one.."

[spoiler]You have been given a crystal of onyx on it is engraved a symbol you've never seen before.[/spoiler]
