Title: The Elven Warparty of Evermeet
Post by: RedMagician on July 01, 2013, 07:20:45 PM
Hello everyone!

I'm looking for players that would like to take part of the following concept:

QuoteA warparty of elves left Evermeet in order to give chase to a drow raiding party that has stolen a relic from one of their holy temples. They were succesful on their mission, however, when going back home fortune had it so that their ship wrecked in Ymph.

Objectives:

QuoteThe warparty would be composed of only elves, of course, and if possible, yet not necessarily, all or most of them would be sun elves.

Their role in Ymph would be to uncover the history of the elvenkind that lived there and try to recover their relics and cleanse the ruins of their cities, if there are such a thing. Maybe even manage to stablish a place for all the Tel-quessir to live and for their culture and might to flourish once more.

Ymph better get ready, for the glory and splendour of the Tel-Quessir shall shine anew on the Archipelago.

Number of members of the warparty and classes

QuoteI don't really have a limit, as many players as possible can join. There should be a minimum of about 5 or 6 elves for the concepto to work out at first.

All classes are allowed, however, preferably fighters, clerics and some wizards or sorcerers. We can work on the exact composition of the warparty once we've got enough people on board.

Please, feel free to let me know if you would be interested. I think it could be a neat idea that'd bring life to a rather dying race of EFU.

If I don't already have a concept when this starts, I'm in.

I am not certain what to play at the moment, so perhaps me as well.

That would make four of us right now, if you three are into it.

I'd like to wait until the major event scheduled for next saturday has passed and the server's situation has settled down a bit.

We can however start planning what character's we'll be playing and fleshing out the concepts. I'm all for starting to work on this as soon as you guys want so that we can bring forth the elven glory to the server as soon as possible :D Do all of you use IRC? I think that'd be the best way in which we can chat and coordinate.

I've been mulling over an elfy concept for awhile now so I'm definitely interested in this! Do you have an IRC channel set up yet?
Title:
Post by: RedMagician on July 03, 2013, 07:53:46 AM
No, still no IRC channel has been set up yet. I personally don't know how to set up a channel in Darkmyst, so if one of you would be so kind as to do it, that'd be grand! :D

Also, with you we'd already be five people interested in this concept. Things are looking good :)

Echigo and Necropolis V, don't worry about joining us at a later time. Let me clear out this matter:

The whole concept is based on an elven war party that chased after a bunch of drow raiders and after a succesful hunt retrieved the relic that had been stolen from their temple.

The war band was consisted of about 25 elves, whose ship wrecked on their way back to Evermeet. The players who create a PC, be it 4, 5 or 6 players, will assume the role of the surviving members of the war ban, assuming that the rest of their companions are dead since they didn't reach the safety of Ymph's shore and are missing (no bodies to be found though).

However, this very background allows others who are interested in the concept to later on create an elven PC and play it out as if they were part of the company, RPing that they're one of the other elves who were missing and that has just found their way to Ymph since the wrecking. Of course not much time should go by until they show up. It's not beleivable for more surviving elves to appear after, say, a month's time since the initial survivors step into the server.

Oh yes, and this is for everyone interested. No RPing as the leader of the war party, he's the only elf that's died during the ship wreck. The reason behind this being that he'd have to be more powerful than a standard PC (and would require an application), because he was a rather old and experienced Eladrim. In any case, I don't want to flood the thread with more posts about the group's lore or more detailed background.

If any of you know how to do it, please create an IRC channel so we can discuss the character concepts (or not, if you've got yours already figured out you'd simply introduce it to us, like I'll be doing).

QuoteSide note: I don't know if the fact that new PCs may join as part of our association after the initial group has been created needs to be permitted by a DM:

I can make an IRC channel. What would you like it named?
Title:
Post by: RedMagician on July 04, 2013, 07:39:13 AM
#efuelvenwarparty

I think that name will do, thanks. Also, I'm free to start this concept whenever, since my main character is now dead.

I have already created my PC and am ready to enter the gameworld. I have sent you people (PlayaCharacter, johanmaxon and mentau) a PM with the details.

If any of you plan to finally take part in this concept, please, let me know through any means. For now it's Mia, mentau and me.

Yes, yes I plan to! Guess I will make my pc as soon as I can, was though hanging in the IRC channel all night yesterday and it was lonely.. What timezone are you in? I am GMT +1.

You guys are already rolled up? I made a Bladesinger, myself. :]

Like I said, I have already created my character. He's in the OOC area, waiting to enter the gameworld.

I was hoping to set up a date so that we can all start our elven adventures at the same time.

The people that are for now taking part in this are: Mia, Automne, Mentau, Domare, you and I. So that makes a glorious number of six elves that soon shall be prancing about the place. We should coordiante through PMs or our #efuelvenwarparty channel to start playing as soon as posible :)

And me! I made my character yesterday as I just couldn't wait to check out
Old Port. Was just online for an hour poking around, but never the less.
We should launch this as soon as possible!

Still looking for people for this group?

I am in.  Get your butts into #efuelvenwarparty people, existing elves who were already made are welcome too!

Whether you are a filthy no good traitor to the memory of Corellon, or, an ACTUAL elf, join us on IRC folks!  New characters and existing ones welcome.

If you are between characters and want to brainstorm, hop on in.  Now is an exciting time to play an elf!

Join us in #efuelvenwarparty

The "lets make a bunch of elves who arrive from Evermeet" all at once never really took off, but, we have a real Warband in game elfing it up at this point!

Most of you should have access to the subforum now.  If you do not have access and you play an elf who has been a member of the group, please send me a private message and I will add you.

Can't beleive the whole "group of elves" finally took off, even if not the original concept. If/when my main PC dies I may jump in on the wagon.

My Elf died in Old Port, and now I got a gobbo. When he passes on though, I might take on making another pointy ears!
