Fralsrik continued on his journey after he recieved an answer from mernal: Mernal writing: Forget about the Dominion and the Looters. Go straight to the Karnols isle league, and see what you can find about that nephil. These are your new orders. Right. He had to go all the way south, and he had to find a way to cross the water, over to the islands. However, before doing that, he will have to get past the dominion unseen, which seemed like a daunting task. With a whole bunch of mages scrying all the time the areas around them, being "stealthy" seems silly. I'll just walk on over the roads, and if anybody asks me what I'm doing here, I'll say I'm a traveller. hope that will work. it certainly did in Angel's rest. he smiled to himself and put his hood over his head. Then he walked onwards. The roads were in bad state, and he wondered how ever a merchant's cars could be pushed over such a road. Meh. these humans really make a mess of everything. He slowly came into the vicinity of Porter's reatreat. He looked at his map to make sure th ruin in front of him was th once famous road-inn. It was. Now it was abandoned. It had probably run out of business, which wasn't very surprising, given the fact that there was war at hand. travellers just didn't want to walk freely in valorim anymore. In whole Ermarian, for that sake. Humans. Oh Karlir, great god, will you help us whiping these pathetic humans out? it was time to go on. After a walk he started to come near an S-curve in the river. Luckily, just north of the cave, he found some stepping stones, and crossed the river, after which he traveled south, direction Libras. he could have gone over the roads, but it would only make traching him more easy. he didn't want that, did he. --- Moternij had looked back after a mile, to see if Fralsrik was still staring at him. he wasn't. Moternij had a very usefull ability. he could lways feel it when somebody was watching him. Humans had that too, he heard, but was it as fine-tuned as his was? Nah. Can't be. He decided to go along the northern passage along the mountains, running from bush to bush. He had to arrive at Fort Emergence unseen, or otherwise hell would brake loos. From time to time checking if nobody was there, he ran across the fields to the next bush, until he came across a passage, leading directly south. That's the passage i went through twenty years ago. moternij was quite a recent fugitive of Avernum, so he knew what to expect in Avernum these day. When he left there were different groups, some of which he only heard in myths, like a a group of worshippers of death. He couldn't remember the name though. Something that he had seen and knew for sure it existed,m were a bunch of knights, and some group in the Abyss. The passage was old and here and there bushes had popped up, giving Moternij some cover while he approached fort Emergence. Scattered over the ground, he saw some unicorn horns. They were said to have magical abilities. He decided to take three. They were free anyway. He came out of this passage and turned left, but immeditaly turned back into the passage. Soldiers everywhere. Somebody had broken into Avernum, or tried too, in any case. This was bad news. Mernal had planned that fort Emergence would be sort of deserted. He took out the scroll, and broke off a small branch from a nearby bush. Moternij writing this sir, Am at fort Emergence. Crowded, everywhere soldiers. Might need to adjust plans. He put away the scroll. Mernal wasn't going to be happy that was for sure. --- Mernal grabbed the scroll from Moternij when he saw letters appear. No, he wasn't happy when he read the message. "What!? How can that be! No! This is wrong!" I must talk with my generals, and see if they have a way of passing without alarming the soldiers. He called them and they sat down at Mernal's sleeping mat. They started talking. They had to discuss things and maybe replan everything. it would certainly take some time before they could continue with the army. Again.

quote:That's the answer to my first question. "Is any faction present in that area" was my second. from what I hear, I assume that the vahnatai are still there. I can start doing what you say Slartucker, and I will (so you don't have to repeat it all the time), but if I start stating in my IC things that are not true (like the vahnatai are gone in a mysterious cloud of smoke), then there will again be some discussionover this topic, and I'd like to avoid that, thank you. (Unless you guys don't mind me making North eastern Avernum the place as I imagine it, and then it will be very different from what I have read about it now. for example, I'm going to trash the Vahnatai, as the one that made them up in the first place, has quit, for all I know) In summary: You can keep repeating what you say, thereby not helping me any further, or you can finnaly answer my second question. I'd rather have the latter.

Is Dikiyoba female? I didn't know that... But then again, what DO I know about the Spiderweb community... Nothing at all. And I'm quite content with that. Hopefully some new pictures soon.

quote:Here is a link to the mini vmac page: mini vmac. You say you run OS 10.3.9? Then you'll have to download version 2.7.1 from the left hand menu. After that, here is a link to dowload Dark castle and Beyond Dark castle (Dark Castle 2). Go to Main download area, then to Games, and then scroll down the list until you find Dark castle. To run mini vmac, you'll have to have the Mac Plus RAM and a copy of System 6.08, system 6.08 in .img format. I can email you both, if you wish. That's all there is to it. For more information, I'd be happy to help you out, but you can also consult the webpage of mini vmac and the manual that comes with the emulator.

Well, this is not an RPG, but an adventure game, and it will require system 6.08 or so, but Dark Castle is an amazing game. I was hooked to it already when I was 4 years old. If you can find an emulator emulating the Mac plus, you can play the game (I play it too on my G3 Imac). I can recoomnd mini vmac. -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape. Give us your drek!

Fralsrik went to stand on a small hill, and watched how Moternij slowly dissappeared at the horizon. I must continue now. First I'll see if there is some news about anything in some inn, I think. he turned to the left at the river, walking towards Angel's rest. Luckily every small town and dump has its own inn. there are quite some drinkers here. he grinned to himself. Foolish humans. I'm not surprised the Empire turned out to be a flop. How can it survive with more intelligent creatures moving around? He patted himself on the breast while he thought that. He was on the outskirts of Angel's rest, and could already see some guards moving around. he hid his arrows and bow in his cloak, so he wouldn't look hostile. Dressed like that, he appraoched the guards, who stopped him. "Name? Goal you seek in this village?" "Menrir, get a drink in the inn. pleas let a lonely traveler through?" The guard inspected him. "Alright, you can pass now. But if you, you little stinkin Nephil, cause any trouble, you'll be dead, dead as a Nephil has ever been, in only five seconds, got that?" Fralsrik nodded. The guard stepped aside and let him pass. Yep. truly foolish these humans. Kill me in five seconds? A Nephil spy? pathetic. He continued to the inn. The inn was bombed, filled to the top. everyweher travellers and locals were having drinks, laughing and most importantly, exchanging rumors. While he went to sit at an empty chair at the bar, he heard the following threads of speech: "...Oh yes, the Anama are growing stronger I hear, although they seem to have trouble in Sharimik and Karnold province..." "...omion you say? Why yes! the dominioin ha very powerful mages, didn't you know that? Worst enemy of the Anama, I believe..." "...Yesiree, all but false, i tell you. Riverrod province DOES have a temple dedicated to the chicken gods..." (As an answer to the previous talk:) "Are you sure? I never heard of that temple. What, is it in Filberton? With the mage school? Oh yes of course! It is that scenario... what was it called again?" "Where the Rivers Meet you mean?" "Exactly!" (Continuation of threads of other talks Fralsrik overheard, this one of particular interest:) "...yes, something like "Karnold Isle league," or so I heard. They have a Nephil int heir force, you know? And they just found this exciting temple of some sort. They are on the small islands to the very south, south of the Dominion of the learned..." Upon hearing this, fralsrik left the inn. he didn't even drank his mushroom beer. he walked straight out, straight out of Angel's rest, straight to the hill he sat before, at the river. he took out his scroll and found a small twig in the grass: Fralsrik writing this, sir: Overheard things in Angel's rest inn. KIL is an other group to the south: has Nephil leader in forces. Communicate? He put away the scroll and waited. waited for an answer.

quote:Yes, that's true of course, but also without the OOC's it would still be about 20 - 30 posts. Tyran: Yes, that's also true, but then it was moving way too fast. Now I'm feeling lucky when I see ten new posts. If we could keep up the amount of posts per day between 10 and 15 posts, I think that would be ideal. If we could keep that up, it would be perfect, though I don't expect it. Everybody here has other things to do, but it would be nice if this could happen. By the way, I don't mean that everybody should immediatly post twice, but that other people, who we don't see posting that often, could try to post more often. -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

People, seriously, the amount of posts in the OOC thread is catching up with the amount of posts in the actual RP thread. At first the RP was moving far to fast, and now its on idle. Maybe we should try all to post just a little bit more. And yes, I do understand it if people have more to do than only sit here and watch what's happening, while constaly clicking of the "reload" button of the browser. -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

Early morning. A horse filled to the top with potions had been found. The potions were taken of its back, and devided among the priests and mages. it didn't a long time after that, that the Nephil messenger returned to th camp. mernal spotted him already from far. he smiled and clapped in his hands. "Guard! Give me two of those healing potions my two spies sent us!" the Nephil guard walked away, and came back with two small flasks is his hands. he gave them to mernal. The messenger was now quite close to the camp, so Mernal started approaching him. When they finnaly met, Mernal was delighted to see him back. Together they walked back to the camp. "Sir, they agreed, and gave us 0 arrows of life, and 20 arrows of light. This should help us defend ourselves if we get into contact with undead on the surface or Avernum." mernal smiled, took the arrows in his hands, and gave the messenger the two healing potions. "And this is for you, my dear messenger. early in the morning, we recieved a horse, filled to the top with energy and healing potions. My two spies in the south of valorim had sent them." The messenger seemed very surprised. "Thanks very much, sir! is there anything I can do for you?" "Apart from being alert and call for help when you think you see trouble arising at the horizon, you're free to do what you want. Just don't leave the camp." The messenger nodded. He walked to his sleeping mat, and deposited the potions in his knapsack. mernal had also returned to his sleeping mat, when he saw that two of the scrolls had writing on them. he quickly read them both. What! hralek was captured by the goblins!? he read on, and quickly felt relieved. At least they handle him with respect. that's at least something. however, this does mean that there might be a small conflict afoot. I shall wait and see. --- Sergris was now quite near the castle of this "seeker of knowledge." It was quite beautiful It had several lovely towers and black stones gave the castle an eerie, but majestic look. he took out his paper and broke a twig from a nerby ush, and wrote: Sergris writing: Am very close to seeker of knowledge. Live sin castle, very beautiful. Trying to get closer now. Sergris put away the scroll and threw the twig away. Gathering all his silence and knowledge, he approached the castle, until he was a mere yard from the walls. Nothing seems to be happening. Good. They didn't spot me then, I hope. he ran the lats part to the walls, and started walking arounf the castle, searching for some door or window. -------- OOC: Aran, is there a door through which my spy can enter? -------- --- In the meantime Moternij and Fralsrik had gotten close to Sharimik, but not so close that somebody could actually see them. that would anyway be difficult, given that the two Nephilim were trained spies. The affair in the inn was merely a stupid thing Moternij had done of greed. It had probably taken them an hour to get to this point. On their left hand they could see the curled smoke from houses from an other city. Fralsrik took out his map of Valorim, and studied it. "That should be Aminro there, at out left, and Sharimik is the big city on our right. This should be the place were the Domion and these Looters have their homeland, or whatever they would like to call it. I guess we say goodbye to each other here, Moternij." Moternij nodded, and waved Fralsrik good bye while he alked south, to the river. From there he would be heading to the entrance of fort Emergence. -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

What is the weirdest thing you've ever seen? My friends. What is the weirdest thing you've done? Survival things in the forest. What is the most humiliating thing you have ever done for money? I did nothing for money.... yet. What is the most humiliating thing you would ever do for money? How can I answer that without being able to look into the future? If you could travel back time, what historical event would you like to witness “live” and why? The Wright bothers' first flight, as I love airplanes. If you were a meal how would you describe yourself? Human? Have you ever gone a whole day without wearing underwear? nope. What is the stupidest thing you’ve ever bought? A wooden puppet for my friend, as a birthday present. If you had to kill a SW member, who would it be and why? That would be difficult. There are many people whome I'd like to kill for some reason, and in particular three people. These people probably know who I mean. If you had to pick between TM or Alec, who would you pick? and WHY? Alec. I hate TM, though he can be sort of usefull from time to time. On the other hand, I really like Alec's cartoons, and regard them as the product of the few people with a sense of humor I think is funny on these boards. -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

You know, you could do two things: 1) Just reload a save file and try to do it again. these doors close for a simple reason: when they don't have any energye or power which they previously received from a power source, they close. If I recall it correctly, some power sources weren't on constantly, and would turn off for a short period of time. 2) Look in the walkthrough supplied with this scenario. -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.
