The Legacy of Traitors Discussion Thread

0____0 If you tell me that this was all a joke planned by Aunt Lysia... :eek:
Give me more credit than that. :rolleyes: Youll just have to be paient and wait until the others have posted before I move on.

[Kransha]

Hoom, wrapping up, are we? The action-packed climax draws near (or will it be one of those Twilight Zone endings? Or perhaps a cliffhanger?). Well, in my incredible excitement to actual find out what said ending is, Idruil will find a little extra speed on his mount if he can...

Just as post script, even though the end is still some days away (how many, 2?) it has indeed been enjoyable getting through this RPG with all of you. Plus, we managed to survive through the loss of several people very well. It's been a pleasure (though I think the most pleasant part is yet to come).

[Everdawn]

Yeah, its been fun. Im going to leave it a few hours before I post again incase anyone wants to get another in.

[Eorl of Rohan]

Thank goodness. I'd probably have been quite angry if Aunt Lysia suddenly pops and says "And what moral have you learned from this, darling?" Like Nathaniel Hawthorne plucking a moral symbollic blossom from the rose-bush beside the prison door in The Scarlet Letter... I have quite a lot of faith in your resourcefulness, Maen, and this roleplay was really fun. Such a pity I missed so much of it.

Maén has nothing to do with it she is only my character in the game

But there, not what you all were expecting I bet. :D :eek: :p

It was not somehting i did on the spare of the moment, It was planned from the beginning.

[Eorl of Rohan]

Not... Quite... What.... I've... Been... Expecting.

And sorry for addressing you by your character's name, EVERDAWN. I shall remember.

I know. Now its right for conclusions.

When I was first thinking of this game I thought of that ending, that after everything shes gone through to try and make things right, nothing would ever change. Meh, Ill have my literary notes up at the end I suppose.

EORL: Now youll have to say somethign along the lines of.. "The king isnt going to be pleased" and reveal yourselves. Which is what I origionally wanted to happen at the manor. WOuld it trouble you much to include Aelimur in your post?

[piosenniel]

“Guriel? He aint here.” Said the old women in a croaky voice.

“Where is he then?” shouted Maén in frenzy.

“He’s over the hill, has been there for a while.”

Love it! What a picture!

~*~ Pio :)

[Eorl of Rohan]

Indeed. I can almost see Maen, half-distraught with the frenzy, clenching her fists convulsively and... yeah. Lovely. Your writing skills never cease to amaze me.

[Crystal Heart]

Wow! I come back and found that! Wow Maen and to think you had that planned the entire time. I had no idea that would be the conclusion! I have to applaud you.

To everyone in the company:

It has been the best thing that I have ever been in. It's been a pleasure RPing with each and everyone of you. I shall miss you all as a company. This has been the experience of a life time and I am glad that I decided to audition for this RP. Originally I thought that I was too inexperienced to keep up in a real RP. I had even expressed this fear to Pio as well. She had looked over my post and had posted for me in the beginning. She had said that I had talent. I thank you Pio for your confidence in a newer member.

I had only been here a couple of weeks when I had decided to join. I thank you all for looking past the date of my arrival and more at my skills and thinking as Pio did-that I could keep up with you all. You are all great RPers and I have learned much from each and everyone of you. You have taught me great things and in the process I feel as if you are all my friends-a sort of family as it were. Like a cast of members in a play that spend many days and hours together. I thank you all

-Crystal Heart-

[Everdawn]

guys were not done yet.. Ill post a time laspe that will get us to Lysias tomorrow and then you can write your character conclusions.

[Eorl of Rohan]

Well, Crystal, it has been a pleasure roleplayign with you, too. You are a wonderful roleplayer.

[Eorl of Rohan]

Appreciation, from Eorl of Rohan


Everyone, this role-play was a great experience for me, the first role-play ever, and I cannot express my gratitude enough.


Everdawn, your writing skill is great and I took much joy in this role-play, the legacy of traitors. I have found the surprise ending a pleasurable twist, and you have been a wonderful game owner who stayed tenaciously through the end and now will bring this role-play into a splendid ending. I thank you for role-playing with me.


Amanaduial the Archer, you write so breathtakingly magnificently that a poor writer like me can hardly look up to you. I have learned much from your role-play post. I especially liked ‘inclination of head’ and ‘falling into step’ and few other phrases that suited my deranged fancy towards English. You have been kind to my ridiculous mistakes, and helped me out quite a lot. I thank you for role-playing with me.


Piosenniel, your constant help and vital hints in this role-play helped Lagacy of Traitors flow smoothly. You lent me a hand with Child of Seventh Age when I struggled over the parts about characters, ignorant as I was than that I should not make use of someone else’s character so openly. I thank you for helping this role-play flow.


Crystal, your dedication toward this role-play amazed me, and your writing skill is inferior to none. In fact, you’re better than me and you should be confident. Your character was delightful and so was the time spent in role-playing with you. In fact, you’ve been a great person throughout this role-play, unlike me who’s like a black sheep of the role-play. Mysterious disappearance, stupid mistakes, etc. I thank you for role-playing with me.


Kransha, although you joined late into the role-play, Idruil fit right into the Legacy of Traitors and your detailed posts of the surroundings and everything was always enjoyable to peruse. I feel sorry because I don’t know you well enough as the others, but still I think you for role-playing with me.


Hama of the Riddermark, I loved the name of your character and it has also been a source of great pleasure to read your frequent and well-written posts. This may sound cliché, but I cannot say how much I thank you and all else who stayed toward the end of this role-play. I thank you for role-playing with me.


There are others who disappeared in the middle of the role-play and did not stay to see it come to a final conclusion. I pity them. I feel almost empty that this role-play is going to be over because I’ve known you all so well and it is such a pity indeed that we must separate like the fellowship dispersed after the One Ring was destroyed. But like Ferethor said, let our memory live in a pleasant remembrance that we can reminiscence with!


I thank you all for putting up with me through this role-play and staying to the end. I respect you all and cannot express enough gratitude for the joy that I took in this Legacy of Traitors, for I feel that I have grown as much as Ferethor did in this role-play. That friendship and honor may exist, that there can be love and camaraderie even amid all the despair and troubles that this expedition went through. If Il Galoth wasn’t dead and Maen killed him at the end of the role-play, I don’t think I will let him kill Maen or even try to. Friendship is over everything.


I thank you, once more, with all my heart.

[Crystal Heart]

Eorl of Rohan- What words! You've brought me to joyful tears. But do not sell yourself short my friend, you have been such an awesome portion of this roleplay. I feel you have a great sense of who your character was and is and you're use of such elements as surprise, suspense, and so many others is truly outstanding. You have, as my best friend calls is "mad skills"- meaning that you are very very talented indeed.

I must agree with Eorl about the feeling of being sad. This has taken up so much of my life, that I will miss you all. I know that I will see you all once again. Maybe not all together in an RP as this has been, but I know I'll see you around.

Once again I invite you all to the RP I am currently working on with Child of the Seventh Age called "Seekers of Truth." If any of you are interested please look into it once I get it going with Child's help.

You all are amazing people with equally amazing skill. The more experienced ones here I must thank you for your kindness to new rpers. I have been on many sites of RPing and I have not found one that treats "newbies" the way that this one does. We were allowed to learn the ropes, learn the rules of a Roleplay by being allowed into one.

I shall miss everyone in this RP as well as the RP its self. It was nicely crafted into a great story that I will miss.

Thank you Everdawn for allowing me to join. This has been the adventure of a life time.

-Crystal Heart: The company's little wildfire-

[Crystal Heart]

While I am thinking about it, Maen is yours the very last post in this RP or are we allow to wrap up ourselves with other characters?


-the one and only Crystal Heart-

[Hama Of The Riddermark]

My post is up at the cemetary...Roryn is understandably angry, and it has a couple of nasty details in it, perhaps appropriate for the sad ending?

[Amanaduial the archer]

Wow...the Passion of the Roryn ;)

Eorl, you do me a great honour - wow. Thanks. I have learned a few things from playing with you in this game, seriously, so thank you again. I'm glad you felt the same :)

I can't match Eorl's words, really - I couldn't do justice to my feelings about a whole game of writing amongst you. The way you have interacted and worked your characters, deepening them individually and entwining them with the others in the game was something very special and playing with you all has been marvellous. I quite liked Atharen, but since the beginning he has changed quite alot - my own plans for him were sort of pushed aside. And it's the power of your subplots, writing, and strength of characters that did that. One may create a role play character, but a truly succesful game can be marked when you realise that actually, the other RPGers have made your character as much as you yourself.

Thanks, and I very much hope to play with you in the future.

Oh, and good luck those of you with exams coming up!

- Amanaduial a.k.a Atharen ;)

[Crystal Heart]

Atharen I would like to personally thank you for not shying away at the idea that of this relationship that I PMed you so early on in the game with. Thank you for allowing me to run with the idea and putting up with it even if you did not like it at times or if you were unsure of how it would all work out. Thank you. From the bottom on my heart I thank you for entertaining a young woman's ideas. You are truly kind.

-Crystal Heart-

P.S. To all of you here if you would like to join my game please PM me. I will give you all the lagistics of the game that I am currently working with Child of the 7th Age to create.

[Everdawn]

Ok guys Ill have my ending for Maén and then Ill post a conclusion either here or on the game thread depening on whether it has closed or not.

Can I just say, thankyou for making this game a reality for me. I had a wonderful time. I cant really say more than what has already been said about everyone becuase it pretty much sums it up!

Thankyou once again,

-Everdawn.

[Kransha]

Well, I don't know if this will be my last post in the Discussion Thread (I assume it's going to all end tonight or tomorrow, but I won't be here much of tomorrow, so this might be it, either way), but it has been wonderfully fun. I'm proud to say that the first RPG I ever joined is nearing such a well-thought conclusion.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with all of you. Everything from random horseracing at Jacobe's Run, to imperial deception, to Austen-esque deceptive romance, to war, glory, sorrow, adventure, everything a great RPG needs. It was, of course, a pleasure to be here playing alongside you, newcomers and experienced players alike.

I'm afraid, Crystal, that if you're RPG starts sooner than 2 months from now, I can't even consider it. Somehow, I've gotten into 2 other engagements in RPGs. Being in this game opened countless doorways for me (really, countless), and I can thank all of you for that. Either way, this has been most fun, most exhilarating, and most enjoyable. Good luck to all of ye.

[Crystal Heart]

I'm not sure when it is coming into play. It depends on how well or how quickly I get the proposal approved. I perfectly understand if you can not join my RP. I just wanted to invite you all first. Give you guys first dibs since all of you are wonderful RPers.

[Eorl of Rohan]

So... I think Crystal's post pretty well finishes everything up.

[piosenniel]

Am waiting for Everdawn to do her last post - then I will close the game.

Well done everyone!

~*~ Pio

[Hama Of The Riddermark]

Like everyone else its hard to make this not sound cliched, but I am, like Kransha, proud to say that this was my first RPG. I have enjoyed reading everyones posts, and have had quite a few pm discussions with members discussing possible outcomes and ideas for moving on.

At the moment 'Shattered Crystal' is only a jumble of ideas in my head, all i have is the name and the basic storyline. I'll definitely pm crystal with the details, and probably all of the rest of you if you want them.

Signing off, cheers everyone, its going to feel wierd without this game in the back of my mind all the time...

Hama

Good speed and god bless.

[Everdawn]

OK Pio im in the process now of posting! ;)

[Everdawn]

as one man once said "Thats all Folks"

post is up game is closed! :D
