Title: OOC -- Post Hack Post by: Shan Gutarus on June 10, 2005, 11:57:22 AM Just a heads up that I'll be starting the new chapter shortly. Also, some CD's and Contact info has been deleted from their threads so if you can repost whatever is missing ASAP, that'd be great (be sure to see the CD reposting details in the main OOC).
Previously on Shadows at Midnight…. Paladia, Terra, Dominic Waiting at the edge of the forest just beyond the lumberjack’s cottage, devising a plan to get in. Four archers on the roof and unknown number of armed men within. Spy in the trees among them unknown to the group. Dominic just mentioned the presence of an attic just to the left of the back door where it would be very likely for Isa to be held captive. Isaraldor Hiding under the stairs in the cottage, awaiting rescue. One dead guard on the floor. Herald, Kaelan, Shanvorin, Pellegra Mercenaries, Cole and Brent are subdued outside, though growing restless. Pellegra is baking cinnamon buns inside. Herald should be somewhere in the main room of the cottage near her. Shanvorin is at the door, investigating the baking and Kaelan is watching the cat. We need a brainstorm for this right now. Do you guys want to go into town to investigate? Illix, Darien You two crazy kids are canoodling near the inn. @ Dar You’re going to have to repost any NPC summaries you made for me in the NPC thread. I’ll unlock it. Also, do we want to open the story for more players? Just one or two ![]() Title: Re: OOC -- Post Hack Post by: Warrior Kaelan on June 11, 2005, 06:59:22 PM Ummm.... Dunno. At this point, Kaelan's been asked to watch the prisoners, and, soldier-like, that's what he's gonna do, unless you can give us one good reason...
Title: Salvage Post by: Luca the Thief on June 15, 2005, 01:57:22 PM I managed to get some of the lost Chapter 3 courtesy Manik's revolutionary discovery. Some posts are still missing, but it's something:
Paladia Paladia led them through the brush until they stopped finally in the thinning edge of the wooded area, not far from a small house with a hefty supply of firewood stacked at an angle along one side. A man around the back was resting on a short stool whittling at a peice of wood while a thick peice of hobbitweed was soothingly packed between his bottom lip and teeth. Smoke lightly curled up from the tiny smokestack and nothing seemed particularily out of order. Dominic huffed up behind Paladia, now panting and the fiery red of his beard was damp with sweat. "The tracks....they lead....here?" he staggered between breaths. The sailor sighed and looked to Terra and seemed to straighten all of a sudden, though is chest still heaved with each breath. "That can't be right," he continued, "This is Stephen's house...he doesn't do nothing but cut would for us, he wouldn't go about housing---" Dominic cut himself off as the man with the snuff spit masterfully and turned to go back inside. Reaching behind him, the man heaved a large sword up and reattached the menacing weapon onto his belt and moved on inside. "Right....a woodcutter's house no longer," Pally muttered, inspecting the area. The lumberjack's wagon for delivering wood was looking very unused on the front lawn. "When was the last time anybody ever saw him?" Dominic could only shake his head. "I've been out of town for the past month and half that. I wouldn't know. The old boy never really did leave his house much, kept to himself, you know?" Terra Despite the effort of keeping up with Paladia, Terra was not nearly as winded as Dominic, though she was breathing heavier. Terra listened intently to Dominic and Paladia as they discussed the small house, as she also appraised the house, and watched the big man go inside. When Dominic and Paladia had finished Terra glanced to Paladia, and then back to the small house. "Well, I am guessing we will have to fight him out. There must be at least two men in there, and with what I have seen of the happenings around this village, I doubt they are just going to turn the mage over because we asked them to." Terra then turned to Dominic who seemed to know a lot about the area and may know some details about this small house that would be handy as well. "Do you know anything about this house its self? Where do you think they would be keeping the mage?" Darien ZERIGRON: Hidden between the leaves he watched the people move… Hearing every word spoken by them. If they could only know what kind of ambush it was awaiting for them. Not 2 men. More like 15 men. Including Bolthor and Radirez. Darién had ordered them to await in a ambush guarding the woodcutters house that was now more like a small fortress… They could’ve slain 20 men before even losing the element of surprise… And then they appear with only 3 people? “This must be a damn joke” Where Zherigron’s thoughts. And he slowly continued dipping his arrows in the fierce poison to fire off any fatal shots. From his height he could also see the 4 archers still located at the roof. And he wondered where Radirez his men where hidden. Paladia "Do you know anything about this house its self? Where do you think they would be keeping the mage?" Dom stood for a moment, scratching at his face through the coarse bristle of his beard. "I've lived in this town my whole life and since I was old enough to spot a pretty girl, I've been sailing. Granted, when I was a strapping young lad, I used to help rebuild Old Grammon's old house. The elder fellow watched us boys like hawks he did, as we built. Hard work for a young guy it was, out in the sun--" Dominic took a cue from Paladia who was staring at him, not looking too impressed. "Anyway, the plans he gave us were old. I mean old. Could barely read them. Same layout as most the other houses around here, really. I guess it's just what worked, so people stuck with it." Paladia was glaring now and the sailor cleared his throat. "What I'm getting at is that there's a chance, and a chance I mean, that there's a stair just by that back door there leading up to an attic or loft. It's none big for a room or nothing, but you could sit a few men up there though not so good comfortable." Paladia nodded. "It's not much, but I guess it will have to do. And if that's all we know other than what we can see with our own eyes, then we just make do." The set up and numbers were so much different than what Pally was used to. Her training in the sense of group versus group had always been on the defensive; taking care of intruders. Never the offensive. She stared at what they could see. Four archers, on the roof. Not a big deal. The distance was nothing Pally couldn't handle. She just had to be quick and good enough so not to give them a chance to return fire or, should she get her hopes up, alert the others. And Paladia's skill with a bow was nothing to be underestimated, she thought with pride, twanging at her bow string in thought. The numbers of the armed men was something she wasn't so sure about. She assumed there would be a good group inside the small cottage. Having seen both Terra and Dominic from the corner of her eye in battle, she figured the both of them capable of handling their fair share. But would it be enough? They were all looking at her. Sweat beaded on her brow in thought. "If there are too many armed men, they'll get hurt. Will they listen to me? They want to listen to me. Why do they want to listen to me?" she thought, her fingernail clicking at the bow string. Paladia bit her lip and looked up at them. "But I need that mage" "Okay...I think, if I can take the archers out quickly we might be okay with the others. I should hope I could take them out silently, but it would be hard," Pally silenced, waiting for their reaction. A little bit inside of her wanted one of the others to come up with a better idea. To tell her what to do Kaelan OOC: Will be hard to post for an regularly for an indefinite amount of time. Kaelan, out of sheer curiousity, watches the big cat step toward the building, and follows it, at a fair distance. Something about the smell of someone baking... something, he'd had little experience with this kind of thing first-hand, although he'd smelled this before, intrigued the creature, who seemed tame enough. Kaelan moves closer, but not within reach of the creature. Terra Terra listens intently to Dominic's story, though Paladia did not seem all that impressed. Terra knew that such details so long passed must be difficult to recall at will, and so decides to let him work through it, and search his memory aloud for the details he is trying to recall. Finally he manages to remember that there may be a set of stairs by the back door that leads to an attic or loft. It is not so much the possibility of the stairs that sticks to her mind, though that very well may be where they are keeping the mage, it is the possibility of the back door if he wasn't. Paladia seems uncertain, and so Terra decide to speak up. "I don't like how lightly guarded it seems from here, it's just does not seem right some how. Had this house been along a more busy route I could see them trying to stay out of sight, but this woodcutter does not seem the type to have such travel near his house. I would suspect that the apparently light guard is meant to draw us into some sort of a trap. We have gotten ourselves in Atreyk's way, he is likely trying to remove us as an obstacle to whatever agenda he has, and knows we will not allow. The mage was likely convenient bait for a trap." Terra pauses to think for a moment, then continues. "I think its best to come at the house from behind, and with any luck we may be able to catch any men waiting for us by surprise. Dominic, if those stairs are there, do you thing you can handle any men that may be up in that loft? I will be no good at fighting in such a tight space as you described, and that would leave us to handle anyone on the main level." *OOC* Pally, I don't think we are supposed to know about the archers yet. But when they do come into play leave one for me. I have plans as discussed in IRC for one, and shooting him with an arrow will just add insult to insulting injury. Title: I heart pants. Post by: NecroMage on June 17, 2005, 01:08:22 PM YAY! My kanoodling hath returned!
Also, I wouldn't be opposed to letting more people in, as long as we hurry up and get to the damn pirates! And dar hurries up and posts so I can get my pants back. Pants are an important thing to have when around pirates. weapons too, but most definitely pants. Soon my enemies will be consumed by flame... Title: Re: I heart pants. Post by: Terra Artemos on June 17, 2005, 01:15:22 PM LOL Terra has dealt with Pirates before. Then again its not all that hard when they think you are a witch and that there is a Chasm Demon running around their ship.

You can choose when you and Dom charge in whenever you wish during the happenings in my post. I just got the shots out of the way now so it wouldn't be a four-part series of pulling back and letting go.

Title: ARGITH! Post by: NecroMage on June 24, 2005, 12:25:22 PM ...
Where is Darien and why hasn't he posted yet ?! I want my pants and weapons back dammit . I won't stop talking like this until he posts so there . Soon my enemies will be consumed by flame... Title: curious Post by: Erián'melór on June 24, 2005, 11:49:22 PM Just curious as to how Erian is going to enter the story.
Title: Re: curious Post by: Shan Gutarus on June 26, 2005, 02:43:22 AM Well, you know your character best. I intend on sending Herald, Kaelan, Shan and Cole(NPC) into town to do a little information gathering. Can you think of a reason why Erian would be in the town of Nepris?
![]() Title: Re: curious Post by: Erián'melór on June 27, 2005, 11:55:22 PM 1. Does Nepris have a tavern? If it does then Erian could be singing at the tavern to earn a little extra gold.
OR 2. Erian could have heard rumors of a great warrior that lived near Nepris. He is constantly searching for a warrior greater than himself who can grant him an honorable death. OR 3. Erian could have heard rumors of a woman who was being held captive by bandits, once again near Nepris. He would risk everything to save a woman from death. Though, I doubt Erian would be eager to join a group of three men and a large cat. It is possible that he would join them if they faced a formidable foe; he would join a quest if he is not likely to survive it. Title: Re: curious Post by: Darien Gulath on June 30, 2005, 03:44:22 AM *Grins*
You will never get you pants back! And you better think up something because your Illix is about to loze even more clother! Heh heh. And also for the sake of not turning the story into a adult-only you'd better think up somethin quick! Oh and i also took the liberty to play my Npc's in the heat of battle. Hmmm How about a hit and run action, Isa rescuaded, chase and a final showdown near the inn? ( whe'l see where it leads, But the woodcutters house is a awful dangerous area for only 3 pathethic heroes ![]() Title: Re: curious Post by: Luca the Thief on June 30, 2005, 06:35:22 AM Darien, with all due respect, I would like to control the nameless NPCs for battle and story reasons. If I had used one of the more predominant NPCs I would have mentioned it, so I've edited your post accordingly. You can still play the other few you have named.

Title: Dar has affected the youth in a negative way. Post by: Illix on June 30, 2005, 10:18:22 AM Don't worry dar, I have a plan... and belive me, you will not like it. Not one bit.
that's what you get for scarring me for life with your dirty little mind! You Dirty, Dirty Minded little man! *shudders and prepares plan to avoid aforementioned scene* EDIT: *prepares to avoid aforementioned scene via pottery*
Title: Re: Dar has affected the youth in a negative way. Post by: Erián'melór on June 30, 2005, 11:15:22 PM @Shan: Just thought of something else. Erian could be staying at the same tavern Illix and Darien are currently visiting. He could hear the commotion as Illix uses her improvised weapon, and he would go to their room to see what the noise was and see Darien threatening Illix (I assume that he wouldn't be in a good mood after being hit with a vase). Erian draws his blades and attempts to defend Illix. The result of the confrontation I'll leave for you to decide, that is if you like the idea.
Title: Re: Dar has affected the youth in a negative way. Post by: Darien Gulath on July 01, 2005, 12:15:22 AM hehe i can tell your character seeks death Erian....Whe'l see what happens. Its up to lucaa to decide.
Title: Darien is in over his head. Or IS he? Post by: NecroMage on July 01, 2005, 10:36:22 AM I'm not sure that would mesh with my plan too good Eri. after all, Illix wouldn't put her entire safety in the hope that there's a vase in the room. She's got something else planned. Something... Else.

Title: Re: Darien is in over his head. Or IS he? Post by: Erián'melór on July 01, 2005, 11:44:22 PM I think it would be better if Erian made his debut in Shadows right after Illix uses the vase. The sound of it breaking could wake him up in the next room, and he would go to Darien's room to investigate.
![]() Title: Re: Darien is in over his head. Or IS he? Post by: Luca the Thief on July 02, 2005, 09:05:22 AM Still, it'd be nice to have an introductory post first, though it is up to you. Just be sure to include in your first post, whenver you decide to make it, why you're in Nepris, what your plans may be next, etc etc.

But I must warn you that his dreams are grim, just the way I like them. Before long, Illix can use her vase and Erian can come to her rescue. Or something like that. I kinda feel sorry for Darien, a confrontation with Erian will not be good for his health.

So can I? Title: Re: We must make our way to Pants, and with great haste! Post by: Erián'melór on July 12, 2005, 11:57:22 PM Sure, just as long as that is all you do. Don't do anything like his thoughts, emotions, etc... Just get him and Illix to the house.

I hope I didn't do too much in one post, but getting to the inn took a lot longer post wise than doing the rest of what's been going on, and I'm sure it would've taken a little less time in practise. And I also wanted to get to help save Isa.
Because that's what the little girl wanted me to do. Also, Eri, you don't have to do what Illix says, that's the point where my puppeting stopped. Although, I'm sure Terra and Paladia would appreciate the help. ![]() Title: Re: YAY! I have PANTS again!

@ Illix Feel free to kill the mercenaries and post their actions (within reason, obviously). Now, for the really really bad news. I'm not going to have any internet access, at all, for the next week or so. And afterwards, there's a good chance I'll have limited access for that week, but a possibility I'll still have none. This leads to a major problem, since a lot of your are interacting directly with NPCs (gross, I know. I'm trying to get us out of it, really) that are, in turn, run by me (even more gross, I assure you). I would suggest that those of you at the lumberjack's cabin, after all the mercenaries are dead, go to the town where you'll find the rest of the party and you guys can chat. Considering that the speed of posting in this story isn't exactly running on nitro, that might/should/better hold us off. Argh, I know what a pain this is. Things should pick up when I'm home, we'll kill Areytuk (or will we?), party, hit the high seas, some people die, pirates, mermaids, ghosts. Will be much joy. Sorry about the absence and the dry story-line. It will stop sucking very very soon! ![]() Title: No pants + Dar getting hurt = FUN!!! Post by: NecroMage on August 12, 2005, 10:50:22 AM Stop sucking? So far Illix has been having a right wonderful time, pretending to be a hooker, killing dudes left and right however I want to, I never want this to end!
If any of ye find the story dull, try seducing Dar into a false sense of security and striking him with a heavy object while not wearing pants. instant joy. Also, Mermaids were not forseen by my psychic powers. have a cookie. *sets a cookie in an anybody-but-Luca-who -tries-to-get-the-cookie-will-lose-a-hefty-amount-of-limbs type trap for Luca's return* Soon my enemies will be consumed by flame...

I know the PLAN is to follow some kid into town for some arbitrary reason, but that plan has yet to come into fruition. I is sad ![]() The wind in my Hair, The spray of the ocean in my face. Title: Re: OOC -- Post Hack Post by: Luca the Thief on August 24, 2005, 01:21:22 PM *Pats* I am sorry Thaedras. I guess I was waiting for Herald to say and/or do something, but it seems that Herald is not one for the saying and/or doing of some things. That being said, I will make a Cole-post tomorrow night-ish. Maybe tonight. It's quarter past eight and we haven't started dinner yet.

As in, they might search for his body but it cannot be found. I was planning on having Darien kill Erian, but I have decided that I might rewrite his CD someday. I no longer enjoy playing as Erian, so I have decided not to play as him.
Title: Re: OOC: Shadows at Midnight Post by: Terra Artemos on September 06, 2005, 05:12:22 AM Luca, though its good Shans group is in a little bit of action, those following Pally's group are still waiting. Could you move us along a bit please.

... What? No, of course I'm not going to strike first and ask questions later. Actually, although I didn't state as much, once they're hidden, Kaelan begins pretending to browse, until the mercenaries show up. Then, as if nothing in the store suits him, he makes some rude remark and storms out. Just warning you, depending on how far you wanted to take your next post. Title: Re: I ARE POST! Post by: Luca the Thief on September 24, 2005, 06:28:22 PM Best you add that into the end of your post, anyway Kaelan. Just so we have some solid information to work with for the next post.
Title: Good for you! Post by: Warrior Kaelan on September 25, 2005, 06:57:22 AM Except doing that would force me to assume that A) Thaedras enters the storage area, and B) they actually enter...
Will do. Title: Sorry Post by: Pikel Thunderstone on September 25, 2005, 12:58:22 PM Due to personal problems, I just can't deal with the stress of this site anymore. maybe when things are fixed i will be able to come back, but until then, I will be leaving indefinitely.
I am sorry for the two stories I am modding (incompetantly I might add) and to all the stories i am particapting in....but I just can't deal with this right now. What? Why must we speak of my profession? Come, let us have a drink. - Pikel Title: Re: Sorry Post by: Warrior Kaelan on September 27, 2005, 11:38:22 PM Thaedras, it is now safe to assume that Kaelan has completely ignored you.
Title: Re: Sorry Post by: Paladia Entonei on October 01, 2005, 06:24:22 AM Pikel/Thaedras, upon your "return" of sorts, do you plan to continue with this story? I don't expect you to continue modding, of course (unless you really want to)

Post by: Terra Artemos on October 06, 2005, 08:06:22 AM Luca, perhaps if Necro does not want to post just move us along till he decides to have Illix appear, and if he doesn't I am sure we can run into someone else to fill her spot eventually. No need to hold everyone up because one player/character wants to be anti-social.

I just thought I'd let you all know that Due to computer problems, my posts will come in much slower than they have been (I'll be on once every couple days, instead of every day) BUT, I WILL keep posting. @Erian: NOT FAIR!!!

And Lesa, as for keeping Star out of the story completely, that shouldn't be necessary. But just be aware that the familiar isn't to be overplayed in proportion to your character! Having another large cat could be interesting having Shan around and all, so we'll just play it by ear. So... just read through the first thread if you haven't already and flip though the last bunch of posts to get an idea of where we are in the story. Have you tried getting to the IRC yet? You can almost always find either me or Thaedras (Pikel) there ![]() Title: Re: OOC -- Post Hack Post by: Lesalendral on November 11, 2005, 12:01:22 PM I've tried the IRC, but I'm having one of my many bad day's, you know the ones where you can't figure out how to use anything. Yeah, I can't figure out how to use it. *sighs, shakes her head, and goes off to try again, for about the seventeenth time.*

Title: Re: LEESAH Post by: Warrior Kaelan on November 30, 2005, 01:23:22 AM Sorry, Thaedras, hope you don't mind me referring to your character as a pirate. Just Kaelan's particularly narrow-minded point of view. He's a landlubber.
Title: Re: LEESAH Post by: Lesalendral on November 30, 2005, 02:00:22 AM Hehe, trying to over-complicate a simple thing with the IRC. OK, so I might be able to bring Star in a little later. And when my next cd gets approved, do you think she might be able to join the story as well, Luca? Also, when do you think it would be a good time for me to join in the story?

Post by: Aueniteri on December 13, 2005, 11:48:22 PM As for Thaedras' last post: I fail to see Rosie acting in that manner. Not that... I question his position as a moderator, but judging from several things I've seen, the probability that she would intentionally call to Kaelan is slim. For one, she saw Kaelen become pointlessly violent - she's probably a little scared of him. Not like actively frightened by his presence, but more of a thing that you distance yourself from because it's scary and apparently unpredictable.
I also don't see Cole calling to Kaelan, as he's got other things to worry about. It is, however, easy to see Thaedras trying to get Kaelan to move along. That's just Thaedras.
Title: Re: Moving along... Post by: Pikel Thunderstone on December 26, 2005, 12:26:22 PM I will be getting a post up sometime tomorrow to liven the story up a bit.....this weekend has just been time consuming for the gnomezors.....

Post by: Warrior Kaelan on December 26, 2005, 11:15:22 PM This is good; we're glad to hear it.... although, my own ability to respond promises to be hampered indefinitely, possibly lasting less than a week, possibly lasting well into January and beyond. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. I don't know what you'll do with Kaelan in the meantime should the need arise to move him along.

The Drama Department at my school is putting on a production of the Musical "Annie", and I have been chosen to Play in the Orchestra, and since I leave for Jazz Band at 6 AM, and do not get home until around 8-8:30 PM, my presence will be hampered, and once we actually start putting on shows, I won't be getting home till about 10 30 PM. BUT I will still be relatively active, and this only lasts for a few weeks (much to My beloved Mentor's Dismay ![]()
Title: Re: United at last Post by: Luca the Thief on February 04, 2006, 06:16:23 AM Unfortunately Pike I need your response to Illix's actions before the reset to get the story moving again. So if you could make that a priority of yours, it'd be greatly appreciated.
Title: Re: United at last Post by: NecroMage on February 06, 2006, 06:36:23 PM Concerning my leaving santhria:
I will still post as Illix through this story, perhaps even through to the end, if I don't decide to have her exit prior to that. But I'm not joining any new stories. (HA! New stories, around here? FAT CHANCE!) Soon my enemies will be consumed by flame... Title: Re: United at last Post by: Ta'lia of the Seven Jewels on February 07, 2006, 01:22:23 AM Hi all!
We (admins) try to get a grip on who is playing where, especially how many! Could anyone with some time on his hands do a list for us and post it ? Please, list your other chars (in brackets) if you are playing them as well, if their existence is not a secret.

Role Call! I need everybody who plans on staying in for the next chapter (on the ship) to let me know asap so we can finally decide if we're opening up the story for one or two more characters. Also, if you are not planning on staying with us, tell us anyway so no assumptions are made! Please and thank you.

Title: Dear lord, so dull... Post by: NecroMage on February 25, 2006, 09:29:23 AM I assume Atreyk will have been defeated BEFORE we go on the ship? If so, Illix will not be present.

If that's the case, I've been thinking a lot about this, I think it might just be less stressful to just end the story.
