4th IR: OOC Thread

[Gurdjieff]

My claims:

The Dwarves of the North
The Dwarves of the Moonsea
The Dwarves of the Old South
The Dwarves of the Great Rift
The Dwarves of the Shining South

Aye, we are the dwarves!

 

[Serpenteye]

and Serpenteye could try to work on that map. (Friendly nudge)

I have copy-pasted a huge FR- map (that I found in one of your links WR ) together, so the geography is finished. I just have to add the borders, which I cannot do until the claims are finalized

I'd like to claim

Beholders of the Lake of Steam (PL 8)

for greater territorial integrity.

The Church of Gond the Wonderbringer (PL 3)

because I am pretty much their only remaining ally.

The Church of Waukeen (Pl ?)
because I love money.

If you decide to remove nations from me for the sake of game-balance I would prefer if you did it among my territories in the far NE (the Vast, Thesk ect), rather than in my heartlands, though I would of course prefer to keep it all .

Dumassar disappeared from the pages of history, although its name became the source of an insult implying that someone is stupid.

LOL!


Mr. Draco:

Moonsheas
Sword Coast
Waterdeep
Sword Coast North
Western Heartlands
Icewind Dale

Hopefully these are all still unclaimed. If i'm stepping on any toes here, let me know.

You are stepping on my toes, an easy thing to do I suppose, since my toes are so large. The Western Heartlands are mine (though I don't really know what precise areas that are parts of that. Perhaps Edena could define the WHL, since it seems that several other listed territories should be a part of that area, (Baldur's Gate, Forest of Wyrms, the High Moor etc.) but obviously isn't.

Depending on how Edena defines the WHL they may be part of my continuous SW area and I might be reluctant to give that up.

 

[The Forsaken One]

I'm Claiming:

The Kingdom of the Ice Queen (the Great Glacier) (evil)
The Gem Dragons of Faerun
The Forest of Wyrms (evil)

and:

Any other organised intelligent undead of Faerun if it's up to me perhaps larloch and his lich and campires servants with their undead legions at the Warlock's Crypt and whatever may lie below that.

And if I'm underpowered, I don't really care. I choose to go this way and with this cult so if that's all there is then that's all there is. I'll just have to may do.

[NOTE FOR EDENA: I'm trying to turns as many of the Forces I control into undead and I'm trying to turn as much of the land I control into a barren wasteland with defiling magic.

Or if my EPIC spell completes... It turns everything in a large radius that fails its save into an undead version of itself and corrupts the very soil into becoming some undead blight which will feed and strengthen all undead on it.

If I complete the spell and have corrupted and destroyed much of the nations I have now and have turned them into dust or undead...

I am retreating with ALL MY FORCES to the north into:
The Kingdom of the Ice Queen (the Great Glacier) (evil)

Undead have got that whole cold thing going ya' Know

/NOTE]

 

[Kalanyr]

The Treants and their allies in the High Forest - (this one is mine William, I have the High Forest to go with it)

I've been picking Forests, Elves and Faeries as a kind of theme.

 

[Kalanyr]

I'd like to add the following to my claims if no one else is contesting them
The elves of Ardeep Forest
The Drow of Cormanthor

The Black Jungle (neutral)
The Mhair Jungle (neutral)
The Frozen Forest (neutral)
The Rawlinswoods (neutral)
The Forest of Lether (neutral)
The Unseelie of Faerun

 

[Lichtenhart]

Zouron has told me that he will not be running countries. Therefore, Sembia (PL7) should be assigned to the player running its neighbors, Cormyr and the Dalelands. The Elves of Cormanthor would be a good match for this person, as might the Drow of Cormanthor. (Edena indicated that some of the drow and elves are allying.) I suggest that whoever is controlling the Dalelands receive the Seven Sisters, Shadowdale, The Dalelands, and other regional powers. Your armies will have to march, at least initially. So, I think Lichtenhart should claim Sembia. You might want to claim the Vast, which borders Sembia. (I kind of want Ravens Bluff because I made that Ardan’s home town. However, if you really want it, ask for it.)

William, that is not the idea I have of my power. Through all the game, my PC never looked for power, I can't see him taking the rule of any nation that wouldn't like him, and believe me, Sembia wouldn't like my rule. He always stood for truth, against the forces of evil, and looked for ways to protect the innocents and ease their sufferings, so I thought the Churches of the Triad could approve his behavior. He's interested in the survival of every good magical race in Faerun, and he tried to get the Dragons work together, so they could achieve what they couldn't achieve separatedly. And I think that if he is to gain control over a territory, it is because thay asked him, so it would depend on people not on geography. I thought my lair to be in Cormyr, so they probably know me best, and we are quite like-minded on many aspects (I'm strongly LG). Then again he wouldn't want to be a ruler, he could accept to be a counselor of the government. If the King follows my advices, it's his decision, I'm not forcing anyone.
These I thought as the core of my claims.

Now, I would have liked the Harpers bescause Krysophrenos appreciate very much their doings, being disgusted by organizations such as the Cult of the Dragon.

About the Dalelands...they're good... nobody was claiming them... they're next to Cormyr... No I don't have a real issue over them. I like them, but I'm open to other possibilities about them.
As a rule anyway, I won't claim territories that wouldn't like my PC because it makes sense geographically. Dragons' sense of geography is different from human's. Anyway I like if my allies claim what I don't, e.g Kalanyr is welcome claiming the drows of Cormanthor.

 

[Tokiwong]

Kalanyr I have Neverwinter Forest, so that one is contested, and I am keeping it

 

[Kalanyr]

Tokiwong- DOH, forgot, claim withdrawn.

My Character (Assuming lvl 30)

Muad Dha Bin, Grand Caliph of Zakhara.

Rogue 9/Fighter 3/Dread Pirate 10/Aristocrat 6/Bard 2

History (detailed per level)

1st - 4th Level, Rogue
Muad lived as a young boy in one of the settlements in the Corsair Domains. He reached 3rd level through petty theft and working on ships

5th-7th Level, Fighter
By working on a pirates ship, Muad saw lots of fights and gained Fighting skills fast. In this time he got a reputation of a fierce fighter with good tactical insight. He aquired his own boat through a mutiny that he leaded.

8th-17th level, Dread Pirate
Muad Dha Bin, as he was now known, made a good name for his self He was feared by the Cities of the north, and a lot of Settlements in the Corsair Domains flogged to his Skull Banner. In this Time he succeeded in Uniting All of the Corsair Domains and laid his eye to The other Cities of the North.

18th-22th Level: Rogue
During this time Muad Dha Bin became ruler of the Free cities through threatening and by support from the people in the cities. Through Diplomacy he gained the favor of Qudra, The greatest city of the north.

23th-28th Level: Aristocrat
After unting All the Cities of the North under his banner, Muad travelled to Huzuz, the Golden City, to become a member of the court of the Grand-Caliph. He quickly gained the Caliph's favor and he was one of his closest friends during the sickness that Struck the Caliph two years ago. While other rulers were plotting, Muad stayed at his side, and because of that the Caliph decided he would become his heir. Soon after the sickness got the Caliph and Muad Dha bin was crowned Grand Caliph. He was immensely popular in the cities of the heart. The other factions of Zakhara were satisfied by giving each of them a different place in the Hierarchic chain, all on the same level, but different responsibilities.

29th-30th Level: Bard
When the Gnomes invented the press, Muad Dha Bin Decided to use that Invention to get a tighter grip on his realm, so he could focus attention elsewhere, to Fearun.

Melkor I'm sending the Archmage Netherese Age Dracolich Daugothoth over to your representative... I'll be carrying a proposal for an alliance and try to convince you that true power lies in undeath... if you'd join me now we could create a massive army of undead dragons which would greatly boost the power of all your chromatic dragons and grant them immortality... and we could transform all your greatest and most powerfull men and clerics to vampires and Liches...

Let you join the undead and dragon kings ranks of the Cult of the Dragon and let us take Tiamat as our patron deity as she is the mother of all chromatic dragons. Let your great archcleric take Daugothoth as steed and come join us as let the world tremble before the undead scourge!

If you decide to join us I'll offer to retreat from this war torn and devastated world and let us join forces and assault Earth and seize is for ourselves. Let us create our own dragon and undead kingdom there and let us revel in the unholy glory of our allegiance. Dragons and their undead servants.

Come join my cause and lets guide our forces to the plane of Earth and seize it and its ancients secret for our own!

Follow me, follow Daurgothoth and join in leading The Scourge!"

Yes! This is what I wanted to hear, yet before we transform all our forces to undeath, what about a huge half-dragon breeding program, we can also add some devils to this...

Your enthusiasm is inspiring, yet we must tread carefully for our enemies are many, for now I shall concentrate on consolidating my power in The South, I shall open portals to some worlds where Power of Dragon Queen is prominent like Krynn, where she is known by diffrent name, how about we strike upon this world first and swiftly. according to my estimation it shall be an easier target, Earth is a place of interest for many other Powers like this Meritocracy.
