If you like I can set up a thread later today.  I'm a bit busy right now, but perhaps around 3-5 pm Central US time I could have something set up.

I think it is safe to say that establishing a thread would be welcome at this time, exelis.

There you go!  I fashioned it so that it could also be the thread that we play in once the vikings come, if you don't like that idea, it's allright.  I just thought it would be easier to have two threads instead of three.  If there's anything you don't like, VS, just tell me and I'll change it.

im interested. I would be interested in playing as one of the women taken, but with a twist. What if i had been kidnapped in 2014 and hidden deep in the past with one of my captors, where no one could find us, only they dont figure on a viking raid that will kill my captor and take me away, so no ransom, and no way to track where i was taken by them.

I have seen the 13th warrior,and liked it a lot, i have it on dvd as well.Ive played out viking/celtic style roleplays before, so if you want another lady, im very interested.

Hey folks, Lyonene and I are starting a game set around Vikings and some poor ladies caught in there raids. We'll be setting up two introduction threads, one set on the longboats to introduce the Vikings and one at a festival night to introduce the ladies.

I'll be posting links to the introduction threads soon enough, anyone interested?

Consider me interested.

Milanthe

OK, guys, if you wanna join in, post here at the Viking's Intro thread:  https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?board=344.0

Women, if you wanna join, post here at the Women's Intro thread/where we will be playing once men and women are about evenly matched.  Once I see that there's an even number I'll make it nightfall so that the men can come after us with all their vigorous muscley hunkyness.  OK?  OK.  Here's your thread girls:  https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=22971.0

By all means, post away in the game threads.

Once the dusk in the Ladies' thread sees night fall, the Vikings will fall on the settlement.

I would definitely be interested in this as well,  if there's space.

Well, let's see there are

4 Men

and

1 Women

Who've posted into the game.  So...  YES THERE IS ROOM.  Please...  Please don't leave me alone with all the barbarians...  T.T  I don't think I can handle more than two!  lmao  Anywho, there's room for three more so far, unless another guy posts in.  Then there'll be more room for girlies.  We want as many as want to play however!  So just come join and see what happens!

Why turn away the gals just because they out number us?  I'm perfectly happy grabbing two.  ;) 

That said, last time I was here, I had no idea where the gals were posting, so I wonder if other ladies have the same problem?

Primarch

In terms of who's actually posted, we outnumbered them. So you may have to share as opposed to grabbing two.  :P

Milanthe

Official count as of right now:

4 men
2 women.

Hm...  I wouldn't mind being shared!   ;D ;)

Any of you guys able to help me pick out a sweet viking name?

I was thinking of a half roman/half viking child (so i think I would be inferior to the "true bloods" or if they do not know my origin, always questioned why my head of hair was pitch black opposed to blond? )

He is eager to prove his worth, raiding the settlements his father fought to defend against the "savages"
The old man would roll over in his grave if he knew his own son, sought the down fall of the kingdom he defended with his life.

VandalSavage

Aiden:

Here is a splendid resource for names, sorted by origin.  It is also searchable by meaning:

http://www.behindthename.com/glossary/view/scandinavian_names

And here is a Wikipedia article on the relations between Rome - as it was called then; now known as "The Byzantine Empire" - and Scandinavians:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byzantine_empire#Relations_with_Kiev_Rus

While brief, that article has links to many of the important elements of the period: The Varangian Guard, the source of the Rus, and the cultural complexion of the Byzantine Empire (again, read 'Rome') at the time.


Aiden

Thanks!
I look forward to pillaging, raping and killing along side you.


Milanthe

OK, I searched through the forum and found the guy's Intro thread so it'll be easier for the guys to come in. 

Here boys:  https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=22971.msg897378#msg897378

GIRLS COME ON JOIN IN!!!  I like men, I really do, but the thought of being shared by big burly men is titillating...  Er...  I mean terrifying...  Yes, titil-NO!  Bad typing fingers!  I mean TERRIFYING!  TITILLATING!  TITILLATING!  TERRIFYING!  TITILLATING!

Spectator:  Crazy bitch...

@.@ ~~~

Note:  Ignore me with that last bit.  I'm just EXTREMELY bored.  I tend to get funny and idiotic when I'm bored.  Anywho, ladies, here's our thread, hurry up and post!  If no other girl posts in by 9 tomorrow my time, Vella and I will just have to be shared by the four men b/c I'll be posting sundown b/c I don't want them loosing interest in the plot.  That tends to happen when you say "Oh, yes, we'll play this plot" for a while and noone plays.  Here's the thread:

*Throws a goat and runs*  Wait...  Why are you waisting a good pie?  *Grabs the pie and your hand and runs*  Don't worry, the goat is trained in Goat Fu!

Its goat Fu must be impressive, although I have an axe.

Although on the main note, perhaps we should set up a Viking & Wench thread soon? Get to the fightin' and rapin' and pillagin'

Milanthe

*The goat bleats as it's eyes bulge at the sight of the huge Axe.  Holding up a sign with the words "I Quit", it runs away*

*Blinks*  Well...  That was useless...  *Looks at the Viking and his large loincloth*  Ok...  This innocent maiden will be running now.  *Continues to run*  Why did I buy a goat anyhow?  I'm a SHEEP herder!

1.  I thought I had set up the joint thread that the guys were to join tonight?  Hm...  Oh well.  Whatever works I say!

2.  I got it from a goat herder that brought it over from the orient.  The things done a pretty good job of taking care of my sheep and me untill now.  *Goes to post in the new joint thread*
