So, there's a lot going on here that will probably need clarification and explanation as time goes on. Also, this is the space to debate/discuss in-game rules and events as they're happening.
Expected start date is Friday the 17th.
Okie dokie, getting an alt created now.
EDIT: aaaannnndddd done.
Thurmoud checks the edge of his waraxe, finding it keen, and slides it back into his belt holster.
Awesome. We can still defer to the original start date as intended, but if everyone gets their aliases in here and is ready to play, we can kick this thing off sometime today.
I'll follow up with PMs if we don't have posts from everyone by this evening.
[EDIT] To give you all some background on our opening scene...
Table 1 is the remnants of a joint military battalion set to march on the Riftspawn's territory in Grayheath, a human kingdom. The environment is politically-neutral temperate grasslands near the Corhagen Forest, a mostly-uninhabited wilderness, and the Render Mountains, ancestral homeland of the rufalg.
Checking in.
Dotting in, ready to go!
Dotting, will update profile overnight!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand we're off! The Last Continent, Table 1 has officially begun!
Everyone, please drop your first post in the Gameplay tab, following my latest post as your scene prompt.
Since my connection to the forums is apparently fighting an uphill battle, everyone's welcome to pop over to the Discord server I've set up for this occasion. We might as well have something to talk about if people can't post.
Well, that seems to be that - the site is back up and running (for now), so hopefully we can actually play the game!
Aye, looks good so far.
Although Zenebe has yet to explain it to the party (but likely will in short order), he has a penchant for filling containers with water. It's somewhat a mechanical thing, but he also sees it as a basic charity he can provide for those who need it.
Apologies for the wait. I've been occupied with onboarding paperwork for a promotion at work, so I'm getting posts up now.
Yay promotions! Yay posts! It's a good day indeed :)
Giving everyone a bit more time before adding a response. Keep up the great RP and interactions! I've thoroughly enjoyed what you guys have offered so far.
Hey everybody! My wife and I will be celebrating our 15th wedding anniversary Thursday, so no posts tomorrow from me. I'm be back on Friday.

Congratulations! May your cake be delicious and moist!
Congrats!
I'm alive - not sure how long that state of affairs will continue, but here I am.
I'd like to apologize for the unexplained and entirely-too-long absence from the game. The past couple of weeks have seen me running around dealing with rather unpleasant health stuff, but the long and short of it is that I've been causing myself a great deal of stress at work and can afford to cut back for the first time since my recent promotion.
Painlord's first (and biggest) rule of PbP is to finish what you start, and I intend to do just that. Thank you all for your continued patience as I get my RL affairs in order and refocus so I can deliver a better gameplay experience than I've done so far.
I look forward to seeing more of your excellent posts moving forward.
Posting this to all my games, so sorry if you see it multiple times:
This week both my office and I personally are going to be moving. It's been crazy busy and I am not going to be able to post until Monday at the earliest. Please bot me if I am in your game, and if you are in a game I am running, I will get a post up as soon as possible.
Thank you for your patience.
So I am posting from work:
Apologies about not posting sooner, but I have been down internet wise for roughly a week, and will not have internet back up yet for a week or so.
This means that I haven't had internet for the last 4 days (as we had 4 days off at my work for the holiday).
It's been...an experience where I learned that I use the internet more than I thought I did.
With all of that being said, I will try to post from work as I can, but if I am in your game, please bot me as needed.
If I am running your game, please bear with me while I try to post when I can. Hopefully, sooner than better, but I want to be up front about this issue.
again, I apologize about the delay.
I am posting this to all of my games, so apologies if you see this multiple times:
Unfortunately, I have some bad news.
A combination of work-related stuff has lead to me having to take some time off from the forums. I am, in all honesty, going to need to be gone for several months, as I am going to be travelling for extended periods of time (weeks or more) and I'll likely not have good access to the internet.
As I am not someone who would want to have you all sit and wait for me here, I am going to be withdrawing/closing all of my open forum games.
I want to thank everyone who I have had the pleasure to game with over the last couple of years here, as I have immensely enjoyed my time on the forums, and hopefully, once my work stabilizes, I will be able to rejoin the community.
Thank you again for your time and energy, and I am sorry that I won't be able to keep things moving forward in any of the games that I am running.
