Talk:RP: Act II Opener
Is the girly awake yet? I purposely made my little speil to Quin sound more genuine so, in case she hears it, it sounds like we're decent people (which most of us are), not explotive politicians (which one of us is ;). --Msallen
I <3 Kimmy! (even if she gave me the stink eye when she was talking about people that would exploit the common man ;) --Msallen
- I can't say anything more compelling or noble than what Kimmy said--Germain's contributions would only soil a convincing moment with a bunch of immoral, overly-political blather. Who wants to tell sweet Kimmy that its more important that we take the moral highground than save her city? Mose? Quin? ;) --Msallen
- I kind of agree on both counts in a lot of ways, but I only get to officially vote for the <3. I thought that was the best single moment of the late campaign, at least in terms of Role Play. Kimi has gone from being my least favorite character to probably my favorite. It's been a fun journey to watch, and as someone who designs long-term campaigns with the idea of forcing characters to confront themselves and change over time, I'm far and away most impressed by her development. My ultimate thematic worldview is straight up Whedon - punish protagonists beyond their limits to discover their true strength - and Kimi is an excellent example of that.
- I would like it if everyone came to some sort of stunned consensus in the short term - no matter what it is - so we can get to the part everyone wants to get to: The Mulligan. Then we can get back into familiar territory : interrogations and negotiations. -gm
Damn hippies ;) Anyone want to respond? I'm trying to avoid doing every other dialogue entry... --Msallen
- Yeah, Mose is going to chime in-- I'm off this afternoon, but was doing an interview this morning. :) --Mattie 10:30, 5 December 2011 (EST)
Reminder for Germain to comment on this before the dialog is done: I'd rather die by the truth than live by the lie. --Msallen
- Uh-oh, is Mose going to regret saying that? :) That poor ol' idealistic dwarf! --Mattie 13:54, 2 December 2011 (EST)
- He won't regret it--I just want to make him squirm a little bit ;) --Msallen
It looks like Germain broke the conversation by making the problem unreasonably complicated. Once again :( --Msallen
- Don't flatter yourself. I think people are just busy. LE and Kimi clearly are not going to take part in the conversation from the get go. I imagine Daniel would love to have more input, but he's got stuff going on. Mattie is probably more focused on Saturday's Arabelle game than this RP. That is my theory, at least. -gm
- Ok good. Not flattery--I have a history of crippling the party's decision making by preoducing too much noise! --Msallen
ooooo --Msallen
- Hope springs eternal, I suppose, but I don't see your ass updating your available dates.
We need a quest notes from the last game, and if there's anything critical I missed in my summary let me know. absalom 17:20, 22 November 2011 (EST)
- I wouldn't mind starting with the swan on this wikistory. My fear is that the only thing we can really do before that is bicker, which might not accomplish much and lacks drama. What do you think? --Msallen
- Well, it's up to you guys. I think there is shit that needs to be resolved. Mose has no idea what's going on, the party has no post-plan in place, and no one is one the same page about anything. You really think that's the best time to drop an adventure hook? Recipe for disaster, if you ask me. I mean, the thing doesn't *have* to degenerate into fighting and recrimination, although I'm fine with that, there are some pretty big agenda items I would rather deal with before the distraction the swan is going to create. Besides, it takes like an hour. Some of that can be a sulky and awkward period of collecting loot, etc., but there's too much inter-party and plot stuff unresolved to just drop a plot hook that's going to take the entire party out of the city.

Would LE be able to say with any certainty that she recognized Edrell as he was using magic, or noticed that it could have been someone else? Rush 07:47, 29 November 2011 (EST)
- He didn't use any magic except his Ring of TK, I don't think. In fact, I dunno that you guys have ever actually *seen* Edrell use any magic. -gm
- LE saw him using magic... like day 1... right? Rush 23:31, 29 November 2011 (EST)
- Did he? I remember him taking you for a walk and threatening you, but I don't remember him casting any spells. I am willing to be wrong, but you might have to remind me about what you remember him doing spell-wise. The TK was from a Ring, and he's given you guys magical trinkets or scrolls, but thinking back I can't remember him ever actually *casting* anything on-camera. -gm
- I thought I remembered like, going into a room where he had a scrying thing, and he did something with feathers or arrows I thought was magic. Does this screenshot jog your memory? Rush 22:29, 30 November 2011 (EST)
- Oh, he did have a crystal ball, I think. He has always been loaded with magic items. -gm

Did he leave without reclaiming his nondetection stone? --Msallen
- As far as you know, Egg still has the stone. -gm
Hmm, if that lady isn't using that mithral BP anymore, I don't suppose you guys could mail it to us. The address is "Some Alexandriaforsaken Island Overrun By Sahuagin" -Slitherrr
- LOL -Daniel
