The Hero of Mergovie OCC--[FULL]

[Manzanita]

I think Doghead is RPing Xavier quite well; I probably would have done the same thing. Perhaps we'll meet him in Prumen...

 

[DarkMaster]

Sorry for the change of Avatar, too many people were using the other one and that bugged me.

 

[silentspace]

I think so too. It's quite a complex paladin he has there. One who doesn't respond to the usual appeals to fight evil. More of a courtier-type paladin, which is exactly what doghead said Xavier would be.

Only thing is, Oculus doesn't know anything about that, and is only interested in having people he can trust around him. As he's learned, anyone can be a spy. Seeing Xavier is a worshipper of Heironeous, he tried to provoke him into proving that he is indeed a righteous follower of Heironeous and opponent of evil. It didn't work, which as far as Oculus is concerned, shows Xavier to be at minimum a foppish courtier posing as a devout of Heironeous, and potentially worse - he could be a spy for one of the nefarious factions. Or a simpering fool who will tell the Baron about what they are doing. Oculus has no regrets at all about what he said, or of Xavier leaving. Besides, Jasper's diplomatic approach wasn't working. What else is Oculus or anyone else to expect when he shows up in fancy clothes escorting a lady?

All this roleplaying is giving me headache, can't you simply be a bunch of roll player .

Keep up the good work, it's keeping the game interesting.

 

[doghead]

Yes, you do. I will post in the IC thread tonight

Oh no. Me thinks I might need to roll up a new character.

I think that you are missing something. I know what is going on. Xavier doesn't. Whether or not Xavier is a fop, we'll just have to wait and see.

Xavier was offended by some of the comments, but he didn't walk away because of them. I can see how it looked from your point of view - the outfit, the lady companion, but I think that you made a mess of the opportunity. I tried to give you some insight into why he walked away in my last IC post. I don't know if DarkMaster saw this coming, but adding what's-her-name to the mix was very clever, I thought.

I wasn't offended by the comments. I'm having a great time. It did worry me that I was going to make a mess of DM's plot. However, if Xavier's decision means he's pottering around up top while you all are clearing up the baddies and bagging all the XP and gold, well, .... thems the breaks. You won't get any complaints from this end. Great players, great DM, whats to complain about?

thotd.

 

[DarkMaster]

Doghead keep up the great work. As a DM it's my job to handle those type of issue. BTW my comment was ironic and I hope you weren't offended by it.

As for messing my plot, it is my responsability that it doesn't happen and it won't. Like you said the worse that can happen is that Xavier end up doing nothing to move this quest forward.

As for the lady, I literally jumped on the opportunity. I saw her presence as an important support to enhance Xavier's personality and the role playing of this game as a whole. Frankly I was hopping that Xavier would follow with the lady in the sewer, but these things I can't control.

Also going to Prumen might allow Xavier to learn and experience a lot of things....

Another player as been talking to me by email and he would be interested in joining our game. He is an excellent and dedicated player. Before officially proposing him anything I would like to know what do you think of having a sixth player.

If Xavier leaves on his own, he could provides some help to Xavier. I could even split the next chapter in two threads.

Let me know.

 

[Manzanita]

I think a good new player would be great. A rogue or cleric would be very helpful.

 

[DarkMaster]

Manzanita post reminded me something:
Jasper should have read the note sooner.

 

[Ferrix]

I agree, a dedicated rogue would be nice.

Offended? No. It didn't even occure to me. Made a tad nervous yes.

I thought that we had more than six already. I suppose its because there are so many well incorporated extras in the game - like Karn and the soldiers.

I have no problem with another. It sounds like there is a demand for a cleric or rogue. Or he is welcome to tie in with Xavier. I do plan to keep Xavier busy.

I'm easy as to however you want to handle it.
