[OOC] A Game of Trust

ooc - Game of Trust

Hey everyone. Good to see that a Game of Trust still is ticking over. Since finding I could once more access Enworld, I have been meaning to drop in and say hello. And pass on my apologies in person for disappearing. I've just been putting it off as my playing history in this game was somewhat ... embarrassing. Er ... sorry about that.

The summary made good reading GP/DrZ. I finally have a grasp of what was going on and who fitted in where. Of course, I didn't really need one when playing Xiao, as he was pretty clueless himself. But it is nice to finally understand what the others were talking about.

My DMing history for this game is pretty embarrassing too, if you look at it critically. Hell, I disappeared all of last month and barely even noticed (again, sorry about that!).

By the way, I couldn't tell from your post - are you coming back to the game? You're all sorts of welcome to, if you want (whether it's now or later); you're a great player and Xiao's a great character, and I'm sure everyone will agree that the game's better with you than without. Of course, if you're just stopping by to say hi, then good to hear from you :). Hope all is and has been well with you, one way or another.

edit: Thanks for removing the sig, hr.

I hadn't really thought about it. No, actually, I have thought about it a bit. I had just expected Xiao to have been written out by now. But seems, from my quick reading of the IC threads, he hasn't been formally written out so much as gone very quiet.

So sure, if the door is still open and no one has any objections, I'd love to come back. Xiao (and thus I, by association) was having a great time travelling with the company.

But it would be nice to give him some greater investment in what he is doing. He liked his travelling companions, and of course, wished to help them achieve what they set out to do. And while doing so, Xiao was seeing lots of the 'new' world, and getting to go places he would perhaps not have been able to see if he was travelling alone.

But I'd love to put some fire in his belly, something to make him really throw his weight into the harness - to somehow link his reason for leaving home to the events unfolding around him. Three possibilities spring to mind. His father was a merchant trader of somewhat questionable morals. He could easily be tied to the Sails. Or Xiao may have a half-brother or sister somehow involved in the events. The artefacts stolen from his shrine may somehow be involved, maybe connected to the increase in the number of undead.

I decided to take the defening silence to indicate a resounding lack of objections, and to jump back in. Now that the group is down to its last letter, things are going to get interesting I think.

That's exactly what it is, doghead - a lack of objection - welcome back! I'm sure Fendric will wonder aloud how it was you were able to evade the arrowhawks, but as his player, I'm happy to have you back.

Hey dpdx. If you mean the arrow-hawks that came with the tidal wave and earthquake, Xiao was there (as was I). A very frustrating encounter, having no ranged weapons to speak of. I was there until the earth elemental and the cave in. Or did the earth elemental come before the arrow-hawks? I think it did. I missed the encounter with the brass-rivet-wind-up man, but Xiao was there for that.

He did miss the blue goblin.

And glad to be back.

And congratulations on your 2000th post.

GP. I didn't really specify Xiao's intions. Xiao will scout ahead (probably with Raven, I presume). If still possible at this point, he will try and keep out of sight. Otherwise he will just trot on in and see what is up.

Fendric's gotta find a new thing to do...

But until then, the Xorn Fendric just summoned has 32 HP, and can be referenced for stats from this link: Xorn
