• Out of Character • Let The Next Issue be Raised!

For all your OOC chat and venting

Etzos, ‘The City of Stones’ is a fortress against the encroachment of Immortal domination of Idalos. Founded on the backs of mortals driven to seek their own destiny independent of the Immortals, the city has carved itself out of the very rock of the land. Scourged by terrible wars of extermination, they've begun to grow again, and with an eye toward expansion, optimism is on the rise.

Re: Let The Next Issue be Raised!

Harken to the word!!
Harken to the word!!


I have 2 announcements!

The first being that one of our well-established characters, the Yludih, Vluharqih is resurrecting her potion shop.
The Transaction thread, allowing players to make purchases cheaper than by The Shoppe Standards, can be found here.
Feel free to take advantage of bargain prices on the most illicit of goods!

The second announcement is that while creating my calendar, I decided it made sense that Sintra would once again, use her manipulative talents to cultivate the goodwill of Etzos, over and above the initial groundwork she has laid with her help in the march to destroy Lisirra. She wants to come off as still wanting genuine acceptance by the population at large.

To further this agenda, she will be making a number of public appearances, to answer whatever questions the citizenry may have. She wants to appear genuinely transparent and open in what her aims are. She will, of course be using her domain to smooth the course. Some may know what she truly has in mind, others may THINK they know, but surely none are so foolish as to believe there is not an additional agenda below the surface.

So Invite you, my beloved player base, to pose questions you would have me answer on her behalf, allowing me to employ my own not-inconsiderable spin-doctor skills in her place. I would ask only that you not make them so blatantly belligerent as to give cause for arrest. These questions are not meant to be asked by your PC. But rather by vague NPCs representing many with the same questions on their minds. Let's not get these poor folks clapped in irons. :(

I do have plenty of fodder to fill out these appearances. But it occurred to me that you may think of something I have overlooked.

Re: Let The Next Issue be Raised!

Here's a few for the evil one:

- why should we trust you?

-how will you help us get even with Lisirra

What makes you so much better than other immortals?

-why are there so many spiders in my house?

-how are you going to help us rebuild Etzos?

-what changes do you want to make in Etzos?

-How do we keep something like this from happening again?

- do you expect us to all start worshipping you now?

I heard from a totally reputable source that you planned this whole thing and are solely to blame for Etozs's misfortune, you dirty Immortal. How dare you use your charm and influence on our weekend and unsuspecting city!

Re: Let The Next Issue be Raised!

A few questions for the Divine One:

- Why do you smell so nice?

- Can I have a spider mount?

- Why won't you notice meeee?

- When can we go after the rest of the Immortals?

- Is Mother Labrae going to visit Etzos anytime soon?



OOCly, silliness aside, can we proceed to write in the current season? I take it we'll have any progress made in the current season negated by whatever death and destruction you still have in store for the Lisirra event, so I might hold off. Anyway have a bunch of back plots to finish so it's not too big a deal.

Re: Let The Next Issue be Raised!

Okay, I have replaced the old calendar with the WIP new one.
You can see that some ofthe questions have already been addressed to varying degrees.
I have also left clear spots from about mid-season on where your questions, and Sintra's answers can fill in the blanks.

Woe, I may need to have Sintra give you a heads up on why she is currently acting ignorant of your presence.

Vlu, I assume you're not really going to ask that last question??? I did say nothing that would get anyone arrested. 8-)
And it's "weakened", not "weekend" :lol: ...auto correct?

Re: Let The Next Issue be Raised!

Via Google I found out that spiders use music to woo their partners and each spider also has a unique dance.

This is getting fun. It should be of utmost interest to the immortal herself as well as to those who want to woo Sintra properly. It also happens to be of interest to jesters who want to play the background music for a few nels more. So, Maude has a few questions:

Which are your favourite songs, Sintra?

Which is your favourite music?

What are you looking for in a dancing partner?

What’s your best dancing memories?

When are you planning to go out dancing next time?

What does it take to impress you with music and dance?

Re: Let The Next Issue be Raised!

Okay, how about some tabloid questions for Sintra from the more open-minded of the crowd:

- Will you be looking for any special mortal to "dance" with?

- Are you available for courtship?

- Do you have any special Immortals you've had your eye on?

- What is the most recent lie you've told?

- Who has better fashion sense; You or Edasha?

- What do Immortals do for fun?

- Will any other Immortals visit Etzos now that you are here?

- Living in the Underground, will you be cleaning that dirty place up?

- How do you keep so poised and calm? What's your secret?

Re: Let The Next Issue be Raised!

Okay, So....

In my Behind Closed Doors topic, particularly starting here, I am making posts that are linked from Sintra's appearances in the calendar, answering the questions I invited you to ask.

Some are largly answered already by what I had initially put in the calendar entry for that date.
These are embellishments and additions to those comments.
There will also be some that have not been touched on at all yet.

I have only done two so far, but I will be adding to this with links to entries in Behind Closed Doors, that will be dated to correspond to the calendar date.
This is so the calendar does not become daunting in length. You can simply link to a more specific entry.
I will generally be getting to the lighter stuff as the season goes on, to represent the population warming to their "savior". :twisted:

Stop me if you can. BWA HA HA HA HA!! :twisted:

I already stated somewhere, to someone, that I am content to have this end in either a second round of bloody warfare, or to have victorious Sintra establish her base in Etzos, unchallenged for the foreseeable future.
