WHOA!  Wasn't expecting that today.  Pretty much the most pleasant surprise ever.

Fjorin it is. :)

Also, to clarify, is Fjorin still with the group, or did he get warped to Cleo's domain?

I found the email from starblade in my spam folder a month after it was posted. My apologies. I am late to the party. >:)

It is indeed heartening to return! My military service has ended and I will soon be whisked off to university (studying Philosophy). Thank goodness I kept my Fenwick character sheet on my computer!!! :D:D:D

Here's to kicking ass ;)

@Archdemon Stu: Fjorin would have witnessed the events. They were preparing to move through the portal, but were interrupted by the events in the post. My next post will take place shortly after their entrance to Avalon.

@john greymore: Congrats on the culmination of your military service, and best wishes for your continuing education at university! Philosophy seems like it would be a very interesting course of study!

Thank you Faidth :) Yes, it would be extremely enriching to life itself!

Do note that I might take a day or 2 more to reply. I'm catching up on our threads and posts to get back into character. I have forgotten some nuances of Fenwick over the last few years. If it's not much trouble you can go ahead and god mod me a bit to move the story on!

I should have our next post up Monday (or Tuesday at the very latest.) You'll have the opportunity to travel back to Avalon, witness the fallout from Constancy's death, meet some new NPCs, and we'll also have Siron's introduction.

Okay, you have a bit of downtime before the next mission. I placed you in the tavern after the wake. All NPCs you have previously encountered can be found here. Here is what I need to know:

1. What are you doing?
2. Who are you talking to?
3. What are your plans in Avalon before the next mission.

@Radobe and Archdemon Stu: In the next post I make, I would like to just say that Fury extended the invitation to the Bulwark and you accepted, unless you would prefer we actually take care of that in character.  Please let me know which way you would prefer.

Since Fjorin has so much weirdness about him, I was quite looking forward to his meeting with General Fury actually, haha!  He has a commonly evil creature residing within him who blew up Dennan, he was found by the Lady of Shadows, he's already killed an Immortalis... and he just saw valkyries, so from a religious perspective, he's mind blown.  I think it'd be fun to read if you don't mind. :)

On an unrelated note, I know this is listed somewhere, but when do they get the honorary names? Archer, Blood, Justice, etc.

Oh dear. I seem to have made an error. The wake is being held right now while the funeral was what had just passed. Don't mind if I make an edit to correct that?

@Archdemon Stu: Somehow, I completely forgot about Lai! What I will do then is I will give everyone a chance to make a reply to the funeral/wake post, then I will send you and Siron to meet with General Fury in character. You'll get the customary Bulwark invitation the rest of the companions have received, and while in Avalon, you will have some time to meet with NPCs, explore the area, etc.

In regards to the Ageless names, I am glad you asked! Without giving too much away, there is a massive plot point that will take place (probably after two more short field missions) during which that question will be answered.

I also want Siron to have a chat with Fury. There are some conditions he wants to be met before he enlists. I was also looking forward to finding out how you will send him his message. After all I did leave him in the middle of nowhere with nothing but the soaked clothes he was wearing. ;D

@Radobe: You know what? I think I can whip something up for you right now on how you actually got to Avalon. I would have given you the customary introduction right off the bat, but you have been waiting long enough and I wanted to bring you to Avalon ASAP. After the wake, the General is going to send word to have you and Fjorin brought to the Bulwark of Heaven HQ.

@Radobe: There you go. I hope that is okay for a little background on how Siron found his way to Avalon.


By the way, the rest of you have actually seen Siron's escort, Captain Lurien Honor before: he was the young man that Muse was talking to during the falcon race. I was looking for an excuse to bring him to the foreground, so thank you Radobe for giving me a good vessel to do it!

Great! I'm glad!  :D  I really try to keep with the character's back story as much as possible, but it is admittedly pretty awesome when I can find a way to link them seamlessly into the story (i.e. Fenwick's book actually being an Immortalis, Lai being able to take the shape of someone from the Ebonmane clan for Fjorin, Faile having been to Avalon as a chick for Sembas.) I was hoping that the "knight" angle would work well for your character's introduction. All of the player characters are pretty unique, and their diverse backgrounds give me a lot to work with.

By the way, Radobe, feel free to pick Honor's brain about anything you wish. The wake is also a good opportunity to get introduced to other NPCs. I will be posting stats for Honor so you have an idea as to what he could further train you in should you strike up a friendship with him. Given your history, I am sure he would be more than willing to work with you to strengthen your abilities.

@Kitharsis: Given your growing rapport with Dennan, I would highly encourage you to visit him at some point during the downtime in Avalon. As someone you have been allying with, he will have a "gift" for you.

While reading through Siron's history I was definitely wondering about the knight's whereabouts, so that was a seamless tie-in. :)

Quick question!  While I do intend to have Fjorin interact with other NPCs, seeing as how he's an introverted sort of fellow and Lai's constantly in his head, can he learn abilities from Lai?  I'll still have him interact with the spirit either way, just curiosity mostly.

Yes, I already have some abilities planned that you would be able to get from Lai. The biggest benefit you get from him is while he is piggy-backing on you, he has the opportunity to aid you (i.e. when he was able to speed your movements.) He also has the ability to heal you, strengthen your attacks, make you dodge faster, etc. It would not be in place of actually having the attributes those feats go off of, but he would be to assist you in various situations.
