Anything But Normal, Sailing the Endless Falls

[Bront]

BTW, Ekilu hasn't shared his contacts publicly mostly because we aren't heading that way yet, and one of them is way too close to the capitol to be immediately useful.

We can wait Isida, your awesome updates are always worth it. This just increases the anticipation

Flattery, my dear Erekose, will get you everywhere.

I'm still considering how I want to deal with Sho'Brakka the Dreammind (awesome name, by the way!), but I wanted to pop over here and thank you for the most recent post, Isida. That's exactly how I was hoping Lupaz would play out, from his sneakiness, borderline paranoia (the Whispered Secret, of all places, isn't good enough for him!) and familiarity with the darker sides of this place, to his preference for helping his problems solve themselves, to his deference to other characters in terms of the actual negotiations and the like. Perfect! This made my otherwise dull evening. Thank you.

Now I have to see if I can do that well when I have to do things at the close-up level rather than the broad planning level...

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

Thanks Kelleris. I try to make the quality of post make up for the fact that they're not as frequent as I would like. Which is why it takes me two hours to do them sometimes...

And, by the way, I really like the way you're fleshing out my barest suggestion of a location. I imagined there would be something like the Blade and the way the city is arranged vertically as much as laterally, but you've really done a good job with them. And added a bunch of touches like the genasi and strange magical shops that make it seem very Endless Falls-y as well. So kudos for that, lest I forget to mention it.

Okay, this is just getting to be flattery, but I wanted to be sure to give you feedback with this game as we got into it. It was one of the things I wished for more of in the game I ran a while back (if you recall, with Narine, your Kellunan wilder, getting mixed up with a nascent godling in my homebrew setting - I loved the idea of a somewhat arrogant but charming lady traveling with a porter, of all things).

Actually, hmm, I've been considering taking another go at this PbP thing. Would you by any chance be interested in playing Narine again or making a new character for that setting?

EDIT: And you know, I liked that Narine was a devout servant of the Proxies, but had a tendency to sample them sequentially like wines. It's a very cool religious approach, and completely appropos to the setting. Ah, good times...

Uhm... Bump? Man, I hate to be the one to do this twice in a row. Won't do it again, but I'm kinda looking forward to seeing how the Dreammind reacts to Trebuchet and I.

We should get the weekend update (with Denis Miller) soon. She's working a new job though, so she may be adjusting to it.

 

[Kelleris]

Ah, okay, I didn't realize there were RL issues. That's cool then.

 

[Bront]

Yeah, she got a night job as an Exotic Dancer or Aluminum Worker or something.
