Liam was enjoying the meal, he has not eaten like this on a steady bases for quite a while. every so often tossing some scraps to Duke. Duke on the other-hand, was enjoying a free feast, wandering among the nearby tables sniffing about for treats left on the floor.
Liam was mesmerized by all the sights, but at the same time He tries to look confident and not out of place. arriving at the tavern, Liam seems reluctant to hand over his sword, but eventually does so. what about Duke? he asks patting him on the head.
Hey guys, I don't recall posting here, but I am working crazy hours till about mid November. (72 hours a week, 6pm to 6am) so I apologize about my posting rate. of course its when I work these hours all the cool games I might be interested in, start recruiting.
Liam had begrudgingly gone back with the others, kind of disappointed he didn't get to show those creatures just what they would be facing. Still the idea of getting some back up also had its merits. going to his friend "Quick" we need to report what we found. Maybe get some back-up and that out those buggers.
So no brash and stupid ideas? Like Liam, being the superior swordsman that he is, charge in and take them all on?
Hope all works out, sorry to hear.
Liam keeps looking over the fort for the best way for him to get in and start taking out goblins, or rather, hobgoblins. only partially listening to the the plan, he quickly figures it out. Not to worry, If you come running out, I'll be there to slice up any that seek to destroy you. Bark, grrrrr, bark Duke adds ready to help the first goblin that didn't want to eat him.
Hey all, was a little under the weather past few days. getting much better now. hope to get a post in by tomorrow. it was rather sudden so could not post earlier.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I agree with Tindertwig. maybe we can take care of them quickly and get back. Liam draws his sword and stands beside Tindertwig ready to go.
Liam looks over the side then at Duke. Duke looks back with that curious doggie head tilt. alright, lets go explore Liam then grabs Duke to make his way down the rope.
making it down with relative ease, He lets Duke go play and sniff out any goblins, while Liam goes to assist in removing the obstacle.
yeah, See, I am near famous, soon everyone will know of me. Liam boasts, taking credit for chasing the goblins away. Liam goes to the boat captain once the goblins are gone, you need help steerin to the shore?
Duke moves to the edge of the boat and begins barking at the mounds. Liam draws his blade standing beside his favorite dog. come on out you cowards. best you just run away. I am Liam, the greatest swordsman on these waters
Liam spends time catching up with Quick. telling him about the training and how he really displayed some really awesome sword skills. Meanwhile Duke sits there staring at Tindertwig and Dirtbag. While no longer growling he is keeping his eye on them. occasionally Duke tries to sniff Dirtbag.
Liam greet "Quick" with thier familiar handshake. Duke rushes up to greet him as well jumping up to give him a slobbery kiss. ok Duke, down boy. Hey Quick, I'm surprised as well. not too sure on the group, but I'll make do. I am one of the greatest swordsmen in these parts, so I guess I have to keep them alive.
Liam quickly turns to head out as soon as he has the directions. come on guys, I'll tell ya all about Quick on our way. he's the one that got me this sword. oh and this fancy whistle also. Liam heads out looking forward to catching up with his friend. come on Duke, he calls duke follows along by Liam's side.
Liam had been practicing his sword-play during the brief. He had some questions but the others were quicker to the punch. Every time Tindertwig starts to speak, Duke gives a warning growl. stop that Duke. lets give the little bugger a chance first. Liam gives Duke a little warning. So we are going to find a blue man at a tavern. lets get going! Liam is about to head out with a bit too much enthusiasm. but stops suddenly, ahhh, which way are we going?
hello all, just a post to reassure my interest. I am sorry about the pre-selection role-play, I really do not do well in those. I just set myself up for disappointment. so I simply make it known hat I am here and interested, and hope for the best.
Nothing for liam. Not sure if anyone remembers him really. Got busy at work so failed to keep up in dicussion. Not something I normally do.
Liam was intrigued about the claim of magic swordsman, but right now his attention is aimed at the goblin before him.
Liam looks with curiosity, what? how? but your a goblin? Duke stands his ground, still growling. Liam grabs hold of his collar. easy boy, lets give him a chance first. no need to flaunt our skills just yet.
Duke stops and sits down beside Liam, sniffing the air like he's trying to get a wiff of the goblin, but obeying his master by staying at his side
Pathfinder gamers in my area are very few. we have a small group of 1e and 2e players. and several 3.5 groups (but those are High school kids and I don't think it would be appropriate for me to join them.) anyway. lets see how this pans out, and if we both get in, we may end up the best of friends. unless I find the elf girl that rescued me from a goblin raid party.
I really am not into PvP stuff, I just created a backstory putting goblin in a negative light in his mind. I am hoping that things work out. I am trying to portray Liam as brash and reckless, and often acts without thinking, something he needs to learn to control. in any event. it is also good to meet you here online. I am surprised that you even know me, or rather of me, wonder if he talks about my character among your home group.
pushing through the crowd, Liam catches up with Duke. what is it boy? he asks then notices the goblin, Ha! a goblin, tryn' to infiltrate our ranks. he says. You better have a good explanation for being among these heroes, goblin! he asks as he places a hand on his blade (he does not draw)
ok... 1. alias created --- check
A little later than expected (compared to everyone else it would seem) enters a brash young human boy. a brown dog by his side. He is dressed in what appears to be pieced together leather armor and a worn shortsword at he side. a well used small battered buckler attached to his left forearm. and sporting his newly acquired armband, that all here see, to also have) on his right arm. Hey Duke! he begins, apparently addressing his dog, we finally made it. It just a matter of time before everyone will remember the names Liam and Duke. the greatest warriors the world has ever seen before Liam takes another step, Duke rushes of into the crowd sniffing around like he is on to a scent. Duke! what is it boy? he asks as he rushes after him. trying make his way through the crowd. Duke suddenly stops at a goblin, growling and barking.
oh well, have fun all. I had a feeling I was not gonna get in... EDIT: @Adam... guess we are never gonna get in a game together again... oh well that's the way things are I guess.
As Liam approached the bridge his first attention went to the lady standing guard at the entrance. Liam gives a hand signal to Duke to head toward the hidden ambusher. bold words, but you really think you have a chance against me? I am probably one of the greatest swordsmen in these parts. he speaks boldly and with confidence as he moves closer to the hidden individual, pretending to not notice his presence. However, I offer you a chance to save face, We skip the spar and the toll, and you get the stand beside me in battle
Liam makes his offer as he rushes at the hidden attacker sword drawn, hoping to catch him by surprise. Sick 'em he commands, and Duke leaps from the brush at the attacker No use resisting, you are clearly out matched!
Liam's charge hopfully threw his opponent off balance as He runs toward him and with a sudden leap in the air he lands behind him swinging his sword at him in mid air.
a hit?:
from the nearly inverted position mid Flip, Liam manages to slam his blade into the hidden man's back. slicing upward as he lands.
Duke follows up attacking from the flank
a miss?: Liam's flip, though very dramatic, it seemed to be anticipated and the hidden man simply steps to the left causing Liam to completely miss. The unexpected lack of resistance causes Liam to loose his concentration and he nearly drops his blade.
The sudden change leaves Liam landing on his back with a dog growling nearby protecting his fallen master.
Liam is updated ....
I was going back and forth on that and wasn't sure which way to go. but after working some more on the character I think I can drop the duelist trait and take weapon finesse there.
OK, Liam is completed and all is in the profile.
Hi there Dunganagar, I see we both made our way here after not getting in DM Default's game. (I applied with Noro in that game) anyway here is the alias I am applying with for this game, only the crunch part is done, I am working on the backstory some more to match the intro presented in this thread. as far as other games, I have several listed as active, but be aware that 5 of them are dead or just a recruitment type thread for PFS, and 1 is a PFS scenario which is a short term game.
bummer
who is deserting the game? I may have been a little slow posting but still here.
Aukan, I noticed you play Hajar from Hadassa's Legacy of fire game. I was once known as Bahram in that game. How goes that game?
Liam's eyes light up at the opportunity, Magnus barely finishes his suggestion when Liam volunteers, I'm on it! Liam draws his sword and readies his shield as he heads out to face the enemy.
As Liam ties up the sleeping guards, he glances out the door to see Elaris, trying to discern if she looks like they need his help out there yet.
Liam assist in the tying up, but he keeps an ear toward the door, listening for the group having trouble. and relying on Elaris to warn them of trouble.
If its all the same to you, I prefer tying them up. Liam suggests. but we need to work fast. How long does this magic last?
I am not one for Killing enemies like this referring to the sleeping guards. Perhaps we lock them in here for now. Liam suggests looking for a way to secure the door from the outside.
will post later tonight, now don't go doing anthing overly heroic without me. Elaris, wait for me my dear, I vow to return and woo you with more acts of daring-do.
With Karl's withdraw, Liam moves t take his place. attempting to flip past Aukan. but his leap is mis-calculated . Liam's foot catches Aukan in the top of his head and Liam falls haphazardly toward the enemy (#4)
his sword bouncing harmlessly off the guard's armor, but as the guard starts to laugh, Liam finishes his "falling with style" and smacks him in the head with his shield.
The promise of a kiss from the lovely Elaris draws a smile from Liam's lips. and in return he blows her a kiss back as he twirls his blade and leaps to the attack on the same guard he mis-calculated his attack on before. (#9)
the sword slices past the enemy's armor leaving an opening that Liam tries to take advantage of.
but Liam is unable to take advantage of the opening as he was distracted at the sight of beauty in motion seeing Elaris fight.
The door opens and everyone starts to pour into the room. With Aukan's opening speech, the group's attentions are made clear, we have reached aggressive negotiations. finding himself suddenly up close to one of the guards. Liam looks up and smiles, totally unsure of hi expression under that helm.
Liam gives his sword a twirl and chops at the guard, only to be rewarded with a "THUNK" as the sword simply bounces off the armor. with a grin of confusion Liam "punches" the guy with the side of his shield, hoping to throw off his 'rhythm'
Liam just follows along with the light source, no clue where he is going at the moment. looking for these corridors that people seem to be talking about. and still wondering what statue they all saw.
