Please don't apologise DMFate - not on your head... I'm still around and still interested if that helps any? Would it be worth a reboot attempt??
Heh. Congrats and absolutely will vote for you man. Like Kamau Albrekt isn't the most planning orientated character so will chip in Rovugite wisdom when necessary lol
Might be worth keeping the game in a holding pattern until Pyrrious is back from vacation, Haruk is fighting fit and the status of Kamau and Joy have been established? Am more than happy to wait My 2 runes worth
Alas its looking like this game is on haitus :( DMFatespinner: Not sure what you wish to do mate, I'm keen to carry on but not as a solo game lol. Know Pyrrius is on vacation but seems there is just us two left at the moment...
Albrekt still here... Rexx too :) Fingers crossed everyone else is
Ever the diplomat Albrekt heads out to the seek out seedier bars and taverns, he'll particularly try and target local grave diggers for information regarding Xander; :
Albrekt stands stoicly as the others quibble a perfectly good plan; "Der kirk will know of him nei?"
Good to know :) Think Albrekt doesn't understand Albrekt half the time. Thank goodness for Rexx - the wee voice of reason lol
Metagame moment - just to clarify Albrekt/Rexx is suggesting he acts as an undead to lure in the hunter (who'll prep for a wight/draugr whatever) and actually be laid low by multiple living foes... Apologies if the lummox's pseudo norse/german is wearing thin :)
The brute tilts his shaggy head towards his skull topped moppet dangling at his neck amongst an arrange of finger bones. He listens for a moment then nods slowly; "Ja... Ja..." The Northblodded warrior then addresses the group in his harsh tinged Common; "Rexx says Albrekt ist Köder... "bait"... Wirkt act as Draugr... Der Jaeger prepares for der dead but will die by der living..."
Merry Yuletide to all from myself and Rexx :) Looking forward to red handed deeds and black hearts in 2013!
Somewhat dismayed at the pristeen working order of his new armour Albrekt glances briefly up at the discussion, grimacing at the plans; "Feh. Finden him. Kill him. Der Vampyr bids this." The brute is clearly has no love for planning...
Albrekt rises early and venters out to the marketplace without comment. He prowls heavily cloaked seeking anything from Chainmail to an Armoured Coat. The brute cares little of bartering, and will hand over the necessary coin requested.
Albrekt disdainfully grunts at the prospect any planning, pulling his broken features into a face of disgust; "Feh. Wir finden them. Butcher them. Leave them to den Krähen...JA!"
Albrekt looks quizzically back at Solace, thrusting the doll towards her; "Ja! Rexx!" When the conversation takes a more complex turn, the brute merely tries to follow the exchanges; "Law? Hrh. Albrekt cares little von diesen. But morden..." The hulking Northblooded warrior cracks a madman's smile.
Albrekt tilts his head to listen to the silent words of his moppet,nods slowly before eying Pyrrius warily; "Rexx says, wir können trust ihm..."
Albrekt gravel tone cuts in agreement; "Ja... Sprechen"
Depends if Rexx is going to be a bad influence on the big fella lol...
Apparently still oblivious to the newcomer the hulking warrior stands moppet in hand, deeply focussed upon the doll: Mein name ist Rexx. ... before nodding and addressing it in his harsh voice; "Rexx! Ein guter Name. Are you Albrekts neuen Freund?" Ja. Ich will show you dir way. "Way? Albrekt nei lost?" Hush. Talk later. Nodding again Albrekt carefully threads the twine of his fingerbone necklace through the skull, leaving "Rexx" sitting upon his scarred chest. The brute then slowly turns to view the goings on in the shoppe...
Albrekt looks quizzically at the delicate woman as she scolds him, the turns his attention to the death moppet placed in his huge hands; ”… Und what ist your name?”
Not even looking up at the visitor, Albrekt grunts in frustration and impatience, before hamfistedly attempting to retrieve his prize... ... only to watch the ranks of moppets teeter and wobble... "Kacke!"
Figured Albrekt was waiting to be handed his death moppet by the shopkeeper :) Apologies for the silence DMF (although yesterday was me birthday so was pretty busy)
Albrekt barely acknowledges the knock, focussing instead on his death moppet of choice as he awaits Solace's more delicate touch to retrieve it...
Albrekt nods at Solace’s offer and continues to look over the death moppets for one that suitably catches his eye. At Kamau’s impatient comment the brute slowly turns his head, addressing the hunter in his flat, gravelling voice; ”Noch nicht. Still choosing…” He returns to the decision of which to choose, before nodding again and directing Solace to a tiny form with covered in heavy stitching and sporting a minute snapping turtle’s skull for a head. ”Ja. This one sprechen to Albrekt…”
Once inside the Solace’s shoppe, Albrekt’s belligerence apparently dissipates as he is drawn to the miniature curios with a fascination that is almost child-like; ”Hrrmm. Charmand toys Solace…” The sight of the hulking anti-paladin standing, captivated by tiny death moppets, is both macabre and unsettling…
Albrekt gives a grunt of frustration and lumbers on, flexing his heavy hands as he does...
Seeing the tone of the guard become more aggressive, Albrekt ceases his rodentisms and steps forward, his tone flat and harsh; "Let uss pass Männchen..."
: Still caught up in his mummer's role as rat-bite victim Albrekt fails to notice anything until Kamau appears from the shadows...
Albrekt looks slooooowly back towards the guards, his eyes narrow and he brushes at an imaginary set of whiskers; "Ja. Ratten... eek-eek-eeeeek!!!!!"
Albrekt unconciously mimics the guards actions and finds himself looking skyward.
Wrapped in his winter blanket Albrekt lumbers along with the group, he eyes the oncoming guardpost with disinterest as they approach; :
If the pain of his deep wound knitting together registers... the Rovagite does not show it. At Haruk's offer Albrekt shrugs his heavy shoulders; "If Albrekt muss be clean to walk amongst menn...then Ja." The brute opens his arms to recieve whatever solution the sorcerer has in mind...
Not even pausing the admire his handiwork Albrekt tilts his head to listen to the silence... :
"More men kommen..."
Spitting in anger Albrekt steps backward and brings down the enchanted glaive with all the rage and force the brutal antipaladin can summon; "Now you umkommen!"
:
Hel's Teeth we're making heavy weather of one wounded, scared, hexed guard lol... just as well he's not a serjeant or we'd be in big trouble!!
Albrekt ignores the mounting damage to his scarred frame and presses home against the wounded guard... The brute reaches out with his baleful touch; :
Albrekt steps away from the guard, attempting to give himself room to bring the enchanted glaive to bear;
The brute aims an arcing swing at his opponent; :
Hah - not intentional, "Albrecht" was the name of an old, favourite WFRP character I had back in the day - always been a name I really liked. Fits nicely here though lol Yeah may well need my Asmodean Law Firm of Haruk & Crispin to get me off on a technicality :)
Got to admit - Albrekt's been very fun to RP thus far... trying not to make him just a minless engine of destruction, but wierd, "off" and potentially always dangerous :) Think the game (and characters) are superb :)
Based on Albrekt's bloodlust we'll probably need him to defend us in court :)
Albrekt smiles at Kamau's handwork, then snapped out of his blood trance by the second guard's shouts, the brute rushes after him baying like a wild animal..., stolen glaive poised for a strike; "Grrrruuuhhhhuuuuuhhhhh"
:
Mmmm Albrekt will probably plan to end them both... so swing away Kamau, swing away! Ahhh - cheers for the clarification DM Fate, will indeed go with Shaken as my Cruelty of choice (seems more fitting for a Rovagite); Sickened and Fatigued perhaps as his worship shifts...
