Ok, I'll be a Skandian. Who's the Skandian? Will he be a made-up character or an actual one like Erak or Svengal?

I think we are using Nils Ropehander for the skirl of the wolfship, correct Cenor? I really like him, so I'm excited about that.

I can be a rebel or something, if you need more people for that.

Oh yay I like Nils. So is it a yes or no on the Genovesan?

Nils is in book five. I'm guessing you haven't read that one yet?

Since no one else is answering Ro's question...sure, you can be Genovesan. (And hopefully that's alright with everyone else...?)

I would recommend reading book five, Alex. But if you can't, Nils is mostly like other Skandians, so it shouldn't be too hard to write him. It would be helpful to read the book, though, just to get his character down.

I don't think I'll be able to read the book any time soon, so would it be ok to use Svengal as a reference? Or is he too far off? From what I read on the wiki, I would think that Nils is somewhat haughty (?) and stubborn, and not very intelligent.

[/quoteYeah hes pprettymuch kinda like Svengal. Your description of him is pretty good but after he learns to trust Horace and Will hes really loyal and nice.
thanks for answering my question Mareth! okay what's a good name for a Genovesan...

Oh, Nils is actually different the Svengal...but yeah, somewhat haughty at times, stubborn (aren't all Skandians?), fierce in battle, extremely loyal...basically what y'all said.

As for Genovesan names...I'll have to look into it.

Oh I like Due to and Lares! Hmm...now which one? Nice avi Cenor even though I liked you're other one better. That one's still cool though. Where do you get it?

Thanks, Cenor! Alexanda drew it for me.

I think Duero is better. Looks and sounds more evil.

Gilan - Mareth

Gilan's apprentice, Asher - Elfie

Halt's niece, Genevieve - Ro

Nils Ropehander - Mareth

Insurgent(insert name)- Mareth

Insurgent, (inserts name) - Mellwen

Insurgents leader, Nathaniel-Cenor

Genovesan 1, Duero -Ro

Constance - Cenor

Camp Cook, Damian - Cenor

Governor (insert name )- Cenor

+ more characters

Still needed: Two Genovesans.

Alrighty, updated Character List! Um Where are we going to start the RP? When the company gets on the boat? Did everyone like the title Silent Shadows?

As soon these ^ questions are answered I will set up the OCC (Out of Character Conversation) so we can move our planning there.

Got it. Yup, I like Silent Shadows. That one's got my vote. And I think I'll go with Duero for my Genovesan. So maybe if nobody claims the other two we can just kinda use them when we need them? I dunno. They're still up for grabs, everybody!

Somehow I picture this Governor to be a fat, nervous man and somehow this type of character is appealing to me right at this moment...Anyone mind if I make him my fourth character I don't mind if anyone else wants him...kinda hogging the characters here

Have at it Cenor. I think he shoulder be fat and obnoxious too. Great idea!

I was also picturing him as a fat man...go for it, Cenor.

Can I be another insurgent? And I guess I could try for the Genovesan. But I must admit, I have absolutely no idea how to write one.

Perhaps the RP should start just before they leave...maybe when they are on their way to the ship? Or just when they get on it, like you said. Really, whatever you guys want is fine.

And Cenor, 'Silent Shadows' is my favorite title from your list, so I'm fine with it.

When are we planning to start this RP by? Perhaps if we had a goal, it would speed up our planning. Just a thought.

Haha! Yeah Cenor, a fat guy is fine.

I don't really care when it starts.

Yep, I'm good with 'Silent Shadows'.

Maybe we can plan on having it going in a week or two. Is that fine with y'all?

I'm so sorry guys. I won't be coming on to CoE for a while. I have major things coming up that I need to focus on. Hopefully someone can take Nils Ropehander for me. Looking forward to seeing the RP thread when I come back. Farewell!

You will surely be missed, Alex!

I can try to take over Nils, unless someone else wants to? I've never written a Skandian, but...with help and advice, perhaps I could learn...

But really, if any one else wants to do it, that's totally fine.

Awww. Bye Alex well miss you!
You can have at Nils Mareth. Skandians shouldn't be too bard to write. Well if you've read all the books Byway.

Yeah I think starting it in a week or two would work.

Bye Alex!

I have no problem with you playing Nils.

So how about we start where they are just about to board the ship?

Oh where is Elfie?

Okay, I'll have a go at Nils...

Yeah, I think that would work, Cenor.

Oh...come to think of it, Elfie has been gone for awhile! Any idea where she is, Ro?

Do we have anything else to figure out before we start this thing?

Oops sorry didn't realize Id been gone so long. Okay so before we start lemme gt this straight.
we start with Gilan his apprentice and the Skandians on the ship and hey go to Aslava. They discover me (Genevieve) as a stow away. They talk to the governor dude and upon further investigation Golan and his pals join the insurgents. Governor sets the Genovesan assasins on them and the battle begins.
Is that right?

Okay. I guess I could be Genovesan too (those are the bad guys, right?). Sorry, I just get really confused with who-is-who and what-is-what. So, what are we gonna get this thing going?
