I’ll have Tru’s background completed by tomorrow evening.
GM Spoiler: Good catch! She was previously built for Shelyn, but I am swapping her over to Desna for this one. I’ll buff up up her backstory a bit farther. Thanks!
Tru is basically finished. I’ve got roughly 1000 gold left to spend, if selected. I see Tru as an ultimate ‘helper’ character. As an evangelist cleric, she is a full divine caster, can heal decently, and has a few of the bard’s tasty abilities as well. She has a decent amount of skills, can speak several languages thanks to the campaign trait, and has the Helpful trait to boost my aid another attempts. She isn’t much of an offensive type character herself, focusing more on boosting others with spells and bardic inspiration, and then helping heal up the mess after. Thanks for the consideration, GM. Obviously any of this can be changed or supplemented, depending on group make up.
Dotting with the profile I will be using. It’ll be built throughout the evening.
GM, I’d like to submit my Evangelist Cleric of Shelyn. She was accepted into a prior WotC game that literally made it two weeks before the GM disappeared. The AP seemed awesome, though! Everything necessary should be in the character alias. I’d be happy to move some things around to help a group, if accepted. Thanks for the consideration.
Nikolaus makes a really good point. Could one of you copy this thread to the Recruiting section rather than the gameplay board? We will have much more chance over there.
I am also one of the orphaned posters mentioned in the above post. We had a really promising start and you could tell this group was going to be a good one until the disappearance of the DM. If a DM is interested, please take a look at the posting the group made to this point....I think you will be encouraged.
I’m still here. If you want to try to find us a DM, I’m all for it.
Can’t have a game without a GM. Chances of us just asking a GM to fill in and pick us up as an orphan is low as role playing heavy and character driven as this AP is. I think we are screwed.
I’m not sure what’s going on, but this game was supposed to be roughly a post a day and it is not even close.
”Well, we did not get off to a rousing start, did we,” She whispers back to Lucius. Once the speech ended she made her way back to the others. ”Apologies. I saw something strange and I guess I overreacted. Just a minor thing, though. I’m sure we will get back on the right foot soon enough.”
Trudeau shrugged. She tried, but couldn’t figure out anything out of kilter with the bar. She tried to let the embarrassment roll off her shoulders and she waved the servant away. ”And hurry back with my drink,” she calls out, trying to cover her tracks as well as she could.
Perception Tru takes a long look at the bar. She didn’t know much about fauna to be honest, so she wanted to see if anything stuck out to her about it.. She knew the others didn’t like her moving her way through the crowd, but she had to be sure everything was on the up and up. It would be a disaster for something to happen on the Princess’s big evening.
Tru knew the staff shouldn’t be milling about while the Princess was addressing the room. She wasn’t sure what was happening, but she knew she wanted a closer look in case anything out of the ordinary was occurring. She deftly takes a double move around the crowd, heading toward the staffer, or toward the server’s destination. If Tru is able to get to the servant in one round’s time, she whispers to them that ”I shouldn’t age to tell you this, but when the Princess is talking, you shouldn’t be milling about and disrupting her.”. While talking to the servant, she tries to get a better look at the strange bar. If she is not able to close in one round, she keeps following.
Trudeau bravely strides into the Arcade of Triumphs. She walks around looking at all the military items on display. She didn’t want to distract the soldiers, but she quietly told anyone present all about the Nobility associated with each item.
Know. Nobility
Everything okay, DM? Waiting for a gameplay post for everyone to respond to..:
Tru was a bit worried. Have we been set up by our benefactor? I don’t see how anyone else would have known we were here this early. Or maybe this is a friend to make things easier, she thinks, not sure what to make of the situation. She follows the inspector, waiting to see how things shake out.
Tru notices Indir being held up, and nudges Amandine with an elbow. ”He’s got problems,” she whispered to the lady. ”We might need to go cover for him,” she said, already moving toward the man, worried about what looked like a pending confrontation.
”I can do better than that, Genevieve. Hum along once you get the tune,” Tru offers, as she begins singing one of Shelyn’s happier hymns about looking for beauty in the souls of every loving being. Hopefully that calmed some frustration in the line. And if gathered her some admirers, so much the better. Perform Vocal
Tru nodded at the lady’s words. She picked up one of the applications of the Dust of Illusion, to go with her smoke pellet and her Liquid Blade. Although armorless and weaponless, she felt prepared for whatever complications could arise. The first bump in the road was the long line to be admitted to the Senate. Although she felt like grumbling, once she heard the ugliness coming from the mouth of the man loudly complaining, she chose a diffent course. ”Quite a beautiful building, isn’t it? I’ve never been present in the Senate Hall before? I wonder what the architecture is like in there,” she mentions to the others.
And GM, I think you pushing the pace very appropriately. Don’t hesitate to move forward as you deem necessary!
Tru chooses a crimson gown this time. She again carries her holy symbol and wears the emerald bracelet, that she clearly loved so much. She regretted leaving her armor and glaive behind, but rules were rules. As she listened to Marcella, she smiled at hearing the purpose behind her ever present brass cricket. Nice to be able to say what we need without worrying, she thinks to herself. When presented with the badge, she takes one and pins it to her gown. Since she was without her weapon, she took a liquid blade and a smoke pellet, for emergencies. ”Mich appreciated. Hopefully neither of these will be needed,” she smiled.
Okay, I’m a bit confused. My task is to crash our benefactor’s families party and muck up their nice bottle of wine. When is that task to be done? Now, or after our adventure in the senate?
Trudeau introduces herself as well. ”I am Lady Trudeau from House Clement.. my friends can call me Tru, Lucius. Pleasure to market your acquaintance...”
”Well, I’d much rather be an invited guest to any fancy party, I’d be happy to lend my talent to the revenge mission. I think I’d be good at knowing who’s who in attendance and finding the right bottle. I can definitely contribute. Might need someone a little better at sleight of Hand to help me sabatoge it, though,” Trudeau explains slowly as she considers the ins and out of the assignment. ”I’d be happy to help any of you others, if you think I could bring something to the table. Other than my looks and charm, I mean.”
Amandine, check out my mission spoiler. I think I’m going to need your help on the revenge mission if you are available. I should be able to find the right wine easy enough, but getting the bad stuff into the bottle I’d suspect is a disable device or stealth check, and that’s not great for me...
Trudeau listened while the others considered their selections and their strong suits. ”Tell me more about this party your kin is throwing. I’d like to have a picture in my mind of the scene. Where is it held? Is the building pretty? Or is it old, bare and glum? Are they good at entertaining? Do you think they’ll have any pretty decorations?”. Tru was already picturing a pretty piece of the decor in her hair...maybe a flower or something similar.
”I’d be most effective in helping with the revenge mission on your half brothers. And that’s something all of you should remember....we Clements aren’t one for tolerating fools lightly. It’d be my pleasure to wreck their little party. Shelyn treasures beauty, but ugliness both in and outside should be improved. And ruining their ugliness sounds perfect to me,” Trudeau smiles wickedly.
It is certainly possible, Kunala. If you want to go with that, it works for me.
The young lady Clement set about preparing herself for the meeting. She awoke early at her parent’s home, had a warm bath drawn for her and rifled through her closet for something suitable. I have my own tailors, thank you very much, she thought as she picked out a dark green dress, quite the accent to her stunning emerald bracelet she was gifted for completing her noble studies. She tucked her holy symbol of the Eternal Rose into her pocket. It didn’t exactly match, but she would have felt naked without it. Trudeau stared at her ceremonial armor polished to a bright gleam, but figured that would be overkill for a meeting such as this. If she didn’t trust the woman, she didn’t plan on staying long. She did pick up her glaive, admiring the beauty of the weapon as she picked it up. As she expected this to be a short mission, she didn’t pack anything else, figuring she’d have time to return and prepare before anything of substance happened. She strolled to the meeting site, singing a jaunty tune about the golden pillars of Oppara under her breath as she walked. At the site of the three woman looking around conspiratorially, she knew she’d found her place. ”Greeting, ladies. The pleasure is all mine. I am Trudeau from House Clement. I assume I have the right place?”. The dark haired and skinned woman cut a swath of green from her dress to her shiny emerald bubble on her arm. She waited briefly for a response before taking an open chair, left hand on her glaive.
I’m EST as well. I typically check the boards in the morning before, work and I’m good for posting a few times as necessary in the evening.
Thanks for the selection, DM! Very excited to give this one a try!
This profile contains Gerald’s Evangelist cleric of Shelyn submission. Responses to DM questions: Spoiler: My concept is laid out in the profile. Evangelist cleric of Shelyn from a minor noble household, torn between church and family. She was born in Oppara and has never left. She lives with her parents and draws a small allowance, for the time being, if selected, it would be to say she was cut off due to her family supporting one of the other candidates for the crown.
Her contributions in the group would be as support and a healer. Her bardic like abilities and her clerical healing make her a great fifth or sixth character to fill in roles not quite filled perfectly. Out of combat, she is cheerful, inquisitive, and generally fun to be around. She can get persnickety at times, when she takes a noble fit, so to speak. She will try to avoid that as much as possible. I’d suspect I keep her cleric the whole course of the game. I like my full casters to stay full unless something unexpected happens. I am typically good to post at least once a day. I usually check for posts before work, then after work, I can respond multiple times a day if the action is going. I am currently in about 8 games. I am in three long running AP style games, and four or five Society games that are short term things. If you look at my posting history, I’ve been here a long time and I haven't dropped many games. I’d be happy to answer any questions you might have. Thank you for the consideration here. Good luck with the game whether I get picked or not! |
