[OOC] The Mythar Resistance [Calling All Players]

Ferrix, how long do we have until they get here? Roughly, of course...

EDIT: Sounds like the group wants to run - if that is the case, then we can do it... what say ye all?

Well, Log actually had the information on time frame, you can all go back and read the spoiler I had left for log considering in his spoiler he was going to tell you what he had seen.

Just so you know, a Toh'Ken can consist of up to 20 Huom warriors, plus a few Shockers "barbarian" fighters, and is always accompanied by a Huom Battlemaster, a very skilled fighter with powers of the mind. Occasionally they are accompanied by a My'Thon, a large Mythar whose very presence shakes the hearts of those who look upon it.
 



Ok - Ferrix - can you describe these wagons? Specifically, I want to know if there have windows, flat tops, foot rails on the outside, etc...
 

*laughs* guess that decided that *laughs*

A note that most of you would know, a basic Huom warrior is generally about as physically hard to kill as a basic dwarven warrior. Although they possess psi-abilities to move faster and boost the physical punishment they can take.

They generally carry a Kyr'drat, a polearm similar to a halberd, although wielded by spinning it close to the body and lashing out with it. And Eh'len, which are basically throwing blades of a sort. Only could find a good picture of the Eh'len (attached at bottom). The basic warrior wears a form of studded leather. Those two weapons are basically staples within the Huom forces.

About the carriages and wagon, they are all completely enclosed wooden structures. The carriages could easily have runners on the sides, they could have "windows" but they'd be more of just cut-out holes with shutters. Both wagon and carriages would be flat-topped and have their entrance at the back, the front is where the driver and up to one rider can sit, and could easily have a person or two on the top. They are pretty functional, not very appealing visually, but structurally pretty strong and well built.

Any other questions?

Got a picture that resembles what I picture a Kyr'drat to look like.

Name where it comes from and you win a prize.

Running is what I had in mind when I was talking about 'we have to find Cantus before the Mythar do'. :p

Seriously though, Ashy, I don't understand Uiim's reaction to Olivia's revelations. She tells him a group of ennemies are coming here and he says the revolution has started??? I know revolutions often start with unexpected events but some basics plans have to be ready underneath, to make it work. This is a small mining city, the revolution isn't likely to start here. Aren't we supposed to be some sort of underground resistance group? We should be laying down those 'underneath plans' not start a fight at the first sign of trouble.

Anyway, just a few thoughts. Tell me what you think.

As for Olivia's battle plans, it consist mostly on hoping Mythars don't have a good will save ... fat chance I know. :D

I got ya - sounds reasonable, considering this new info...

Well, revolutions can take many forms in my opinion and they can start in many ways. Some begin with a fight that quickly turn into something larger. However, some begin with small skirmishes and drag on for years until they finally culminate into a "head". Basically, I am just trying to play Uiim as I see him and do what I would think that he would do. In my mind, he has struggled with this idea of starting a revolution or resistance since he himself was freed from the leashes of the Mythar; he knows that as part of it, blood will bew spilt, yet he has been, up to this point, mostly unwilling to ask that sacrifice of anyone save himself.

Now, with this new development, he sees two things:
1. the possibililty of finding a weakness in the Mythar's armor, as well as a new weapon to use against them (i.e. this force that is held within Cantus)
2. the fact that if he does not do something for these people, they will likely be slain, thus, if he saves at least one of them, the word of the revolution and the resistance will spread and hopefully, others will join the fight.

Just my two cents - I am, as always, open to discussion and to the alteration of my own frame of mind.
