Heh. Clarice was only useful in that it'd have meant Nioca would know I'd be sending troops if he wanted them. She's only major in so much as she's been given a name. :P Sarrin... Ummm. Yay? I did have a purpose for her later on (much later on), but whatever. It'll be nice to have a family get-together. I will do my darndest to get an IC out today, too. -------------------- Nikki's Nook - forget about your house of cards, and I'll deal mine. Posts: 2864 | Registered: Monday, September 8 2003 07:00 |

Typically, I never use Disadvantages. I can always play another scenario to get that next level, so experience is never really an issue, unlike in the Avernum games proper. Usually I go: Slith, pure fighter, sometimes with Elite Warrior. Nephil. archer/thief, with Nimble fingers. Human, priest, Natural Mage (eventually I will dual-class this character into a mage). Human, mage, Natural Mage (eventually I will dual-class this character into a priest). That means that three of my characters level up together, and my Slith a little bit after.

Delan Gathin was sat behind his desk, facing Sister Clarice and Battle-Mage Brand - he had chosen these people not just because of their diplomatic prowess, but also because of their position in their respective fields. He had stronger mages, and more devout priests, true, but no word had come from Krizsan, and he wanted his best men behind him, not scaling the continent. He read through the letters in front of him once again, one for the new Church in Sharamik which he had heard of on his journey south, and one for the Dominion of The Learned, which he hoped still existed in these troubled times, if only to be a thorn in the side of the Hunters. "The Magister of the Dominion of The Learned. I, Dervish Gathin, protector of The Phoenix Empire would like to extend the olive branch of friendship to you and your people. In these troubled and difficult times, I feel the way forward is not alone, but together. Please, feel free speak to my emissary, Battle-Mage Asconsin Brand, who will be pleased to tell you about us and our aims, and also please share your philosophies and intentions - we would wish to learn more of you. I very much hope that our people can become allies, united in a desire not only to survive, but to improve the world. Yours, Victor Gathin." Gathin checked it again, quickly, and then sealed it. He handed the letter to Battle-Mage Brand. "Good luck, friend. Make all haste for the Dominion. I trust I don't have to tell you to try and avoid all Hunter patrols, but if you do run into anybody, I'm sure that you will do what is right." Brand nodded, and left the room, eager to meet up with his small entourage and head east. Gathin glanced through the letter to the "Sanctuary" Cult now... "To the leader of the The Sanctuary of Telkavoth, I, Dervish Gathin, protector of The Phoenix Empire would like to extend the olive branch of friendship to you and your people. In these troubled and difficult times, the way forward is not alone, but together. Please, feel free speak to my emissary, Sister Clarice Beumont, who will be pleased to tell you about us and our aims. Also, we are particularly interested in hearing about your philosophies and ideas. I very much hope that our people can become allies, united in a desire not only to survive, but to improve the world. I greatly look forward to hearing from you soon. Yours, Victor Gathin." It was almost a carbon copy, true, but Gathin was decidely interested in what this Cult made of the Empire, and the Hunters. He sealed the letter, and passed it to Clarice. "I wish you all the luck I have, as well. But, for you, I have an extra message. Find out how these people feel towards the Hunters. And, if it reflects our view, do not hesitate to share that. Offer them military aid if they need it - we have enough men to send a reasonable force if needed - but do not offer it lightly. Use your common sense - I trust you will serve the Empire well. Now, make all spead for Aminro, and take special care - you are very likely to run into Hunter patrols, or worse, up there." Clarice bowed, and left to meet with her (larger) delegation, leaving Gathin alone. Now, he would just have to wait for word to come back. He stood up, and headed for his window. Gazing east, a single thought flashed through his mind. Why haven't I heard from Krizsan yet?

Fair enough, and I didn't have any reason to say "whoa, not Valorim!" except that it just didn't resonate with me. I'd assumed that if the surface-avernum portal was in Valorim, it'd have been name-checked. So, okay, go for Valorim. My main point now, then, is that "far from any city" means it probably shouldn't be on an island a few miles south of Gale (although I admit Gale might not have existed then...(and yes, this is nit-picking.). It is, though, after all your choice, and it's no biggie, in fairness. I'm happy for it to be anywhere except Delis. P.S. "bent on urbanizing?" I made one town. And a rural, farming one at that. Edit: rather than having 3 separate " :P ", just read this with your tongue firmly in your cheek.

quote:Bah. Okay, whilst Valorim is a remote continent, not once in A/E3 did anyboyd mention that the original portal was located on the continent. And, I think they would at least be aware of it. Secondly, there was never anywhere that was really suitable for a big knock-off portal. -------------------- Nikki's Nook - forget about your house of cards, and I'll deal mine.

I'd like to state again that I am still more than willing to contribute.
