Scarburg Meadhall Discussion Thread

I think I like what you've had Harreld say, Foley. I was considering asking you to change it so that Harreld demands an apology from Erbrand for Thornden's sake, but upon consideration, that's something Eodwine would do, not Harreld. So it's just right how it is. I like how Thornden stays above it. Hee hee! I like the good cop/bad cop action here.

[Folwren]

Great. I was a little worried that I handled things wrong.

Groin, what about your character? Did I do alright by him?

[Thinlómien]

Foley and Groin! *dies laughing*

[Nogrod]

Looking at the latest developements I must say this quartestaff-fight will become quite a game indeed. Just look up above and see that I had planned Erbrand and Harreld to be a pair in the fight!!!

I will be letting an unbalanced lottery to decide the outcomes but it is very well possible that if Erbrand and Harreld will go through they might meet Thornden and Eodwine as well... Quite a nice situation. Should I unbalance the dices a bit more to assure that actually happens?

Okay, I won't push it. But we'll see.

If you people have any ideas how your characters would react to those possible scenarios, please let me know. First it would be a question of how Harreld and Erbrand would fight together as a team?

PS. (this time meaning "pro-scriptum") If you wish not to spoil the fight, read the actual thread first...


But to all those wishing to have a sneak-view behind the scenes of the first match here's the deal.

I only managed to advance to the 11th. step. Both Dan and Osmund would have had some nice moves just coming... But this really ended quickly - and just the way it should have if one looks at how it went... Scary

So what is it?

XH is X gives a hit to someone
XFH is X gives a forceful hit to someone eg. makes a great performance
XK is X makes a winning move against someone

*

The number of hits given to any person involved is in proportion to their stamina and energy, the number of forceful hits is in proportion to their strengtht, superior agility or balance gives one the possibility of ducking a hit etc... And all that was run through a randomiser (this is just plain wonderful site!) giving me this result. You'll see it verbalised in the thread.

I may upgrade my system for the next round actually adding some "outstanding saving manouvers" there as well so that it's not only the number of hits coming first to determine the result. Well, it was not so much of that this time but I can see it might go that way pretty easily, with less outstanding luck.


And if Harreld and Erbrand have issues, those need to take precedence. So what do you think elempi and Groin?


* Of course A means Aethelstan, O means Osmund, D is for Dan and C for Crabannan...

[Nogrod]

Gwath and Eonwë

I made a short dialogue between your characters in the beginning of my post and I dared to enter Crabannan's mind in the latter part of the post. Please let me know if it's okay or if I should change something.

[Groin Redbeard]

Excellent job Nogrod, you did a wonderful job with capturing the action!

Foley, you did fine with Erbrand. That's probably what I would've written as well.

You paired Harreld and Erbrand up? This will be awkward! I think that this will mean that they will act less like a team and more like individuals. What do you think Elempi?

The posting button isn't working for me on the Scarburg Hall so I'm going to post Erbrand's response here. If one of y'all could post it for me in the RPG I will be very grateful.
