Soral and I have been playing with the idea of starting a Meredith / Anita group RP. It would be based on the worlds created by Laurell K. Hamilton in the Merry Gentry and Anita Blake books. The setting would be in Memphis, TN. We haven't ironed out all the details and would love to talk more about it with interested parties.

ShadowWalker

Hrmm... would you be looking to combine the worlds?

The Merry/Anita worlds are technically separate; the fae in Bloody Bones work differently than the fae in Merry's world. I'd be more interested in a Merryverse RP than an Anita-Verse RP, but I prefer sexy sidhe to sexy vampires any day... :-P

Been hoping someone would pop up the Merry-verse. It'd have to be a plot heavy as opposed to sex heavy game for me to be interested though. I'd LOVE to play Queen Andais.

Tizzation

Thank you Bubby and ShadowWalker for your interest!

We were wanting it to be plot heavy. We were also hoping to combine the worlds, but depending on interest, we could limit it to one or the other.
Looks like Merry is winning.. :D

Oh. Time to break the books back out. Its been a while, but I've all of the Merry and about half the Anita. I kinda liked the intrigue in  the merryverse more and they really went into the dark past of the sidhe that you don't often see. My vote would probably lean that way depending on relative time frame and the "hook".

Kuje

I'm bummed we didn't get a new Merry book this year. :(

And I might be interested, depending on what the plot is, etc.

Josietta

Lunar is eeeeeevil.. he shouldn't have shown me this... I am a hardcore Merry/Anita fan. I love Merry above Anita and since I'm already in an Anita based game I'd love to see a Merry one. I was in a Merry one a while back but if there is one going again I'd love to see how it would be ran. :)

Soral

Hello everyone! Soral here! Tizz's lil sister and co-GM to this epic thread!

Alright... let us all talk about a possible plot. I was thinking of how we could include bits and pieces of Anita into our Merrverse. Now this RP will be BASED off of them, very similar, but not the same. Only original characters are able to be played, and characters of Laurell's will not exist and NOT be played.

Bubbly you said you would like to play Queen Andais well... you can play a character very similar to her, almost mirror her, but not the same.

Now what I was thinking of is that Anita's ghouls, vampires, and shape-shifters be the darker presence in Memphis. They are not sexy, seductive, or refined. They are dark, demented monsters in this world. Our sidhe characters, be they seelie or unseelie, are in danger. Vampires are growing in number, brutal murders are being committed by the shape-shifters, and there are numerous accounts of demonic possession being reported. All this is threatening their secretive existence in the world and causing chaos in their city of Memphis.

Remember this is all open for discussion I would like to come up with a plot that we all agree on and like so that this RP is fun and exciting!

So here is a question I think is very important in finding out what the next step is in the plot.

Do we want to all be a clan, live within a mound and the city? Or do we want to be independent from one another, understanding of each other presence in Memphis, and coming together as a force to reclaim our city and the peace once there?

ShadowWalker

I think the answers to those questions depends on the answers to a few more questions:

A) Are we all looking to play characters from the faerie courts, or are there some who would like to play vampires and/or shapeshifters, or possibly even plucky supernaturally powered mortals a la Anita?
B) Would we all be looking to play the same Court, I.e. the Unseelie (Merry's) Court; are there those looking to play Seelie, Sluagh, Goblin or Demi-Fae Court members?
C) Are we all looking to play Sidhe?

More or less, if we're all Unseelie Sidhe, then it makes sense-- is probably even requisite, even-- for all of us to be some sort of allied faction. If we're a collection of different creatures, that's a bit less needed.

Another question may be outstanding in that what will the status of the Court be-- are we like a mini-enclave of the Court outside the main courts of the books, or are we recentering the Court in Memphis rather than the central courts being located in Missouri?

~ShadowWalker

Josietta

I am happy to hear you are only accepting original characters. That does make me feel better about joining. The overlying plot sounds great as well! At first I was wondering just how you were going to mesh Merry and Anita-verse as they are both different enough they don't really go well together as a whole. I don't remember the Merry books mentioning much in the way of vampires and such and vice versa for Anita. I know they -briefly- mention it but it doesn't go into detail on those on either end.


Though, if I may be so bold to ask....

Just how many players are you looking to recruit?

I ask because if you are leaving it open to so many factions within the Merryverse that can get very complex. If you only have 10 players and all or nearly all are of differing origins (Seelie, Unseelie, Demifey, etc)  then it would be harder to put them all together for a main plot. Whereas if you have that same group but limiting it to all Unseelie with their allies or something similar it could work out a bit more smoothly. Personally starting out I would put it in one area/faction and when the game gets a bigger widen the arena to other factions. Spreading it out too thinly too fast could cause issues with character interaction and development as a whole. It takes a lot of work to glue something together that has warring backgrounds, like putting Seelie and Unseelie together.

I could see some mortal type supes or just plain mortals working with either side however.

Anyway.. just my two cents as well.

Kuje

Having a restriction on the factions sounds like a good idea to me as well. Shadow's and Josietta's questions are pretty much what I would have asked, or what I'm wondering so I'm not going to repeat them. Grins.

Cold Heritage

I think I'd enjoy if we were all Unseelie and it was our sworn mission to take back the night from the vampires, the shapeshifters, and the demons. Putting the boots to vampires has had a special place in my heart since I discovered White Wolf. I'd be okay with the Fae also being part of some kind of secret underworld of magical beings unknown to the general populace at large (I get the impression that magic stuff is secret in this game from Soral's post - apologies if I've inferred wrongly). For the sake of convenience, I would prefer if we were all under some common banner (e.g. we're all sworn to bubby's queen character [if she choses to play such]) so we can all be on side and know each other and not risk, as Josietta describes, being too spread out to effectively play together.

I know I want to play a Sidhe.
Thank you, fellow Elliquiyan, and have a wonderful day.

Josietta

In both the Merryverse and Anitaverse, magic is known to the public. As are, vampires, werecreatures, zombies, etc.  Some of the more obscure occult creatures may not be well known amongst normal society but everyone knows about faeries and vampires/werecreatures.    They are almost always in the media. The thing with the fae though is that they aren't allowed anywhere but on US soil. The other countries of the world had banished them. They are allowed to stay only if they obey the rules. Most of which includes no god worship, which was the main reason for their exile in the rest of the world, I believe.  For better understanding on the verse try here.   As I understand however, the game is only loosely based on the verse and Soral is making her own version of how vamps and such interact?

I know in Anita Blake vampires dont' typically come out as the bad guy due to how the public views them. They are more like celebrities in some places and take their "coming out" to heart. However there are rogue ones who have to be taken out by vampire hunters and the like.

So I guess all in all, another question is -- just how close to the verses are you looking to get?

I am interested but just want to know some of the smaller details before I work myself up into a character. (I'm spread pretty thin with games and taking this one would only be for my own punishment because I love the Merry setting and character types so much.)

I would love to get in as an Unseelie Sidhe in a Merryverse game. I think most of the questions I would have have already been asked though so I'll state my interest and wait and see what the answers are. :D

Tizzation

I think we all can agree on playing only Unseelie sidhe, goblin, slaugh, demi-fea, or phouka or a mix of two so that we may all be together. Also I believe it would be best that we are all a part of a mini court centered in Memphis.

Cold Heritage gave me a great idea, plot wise, when he said that we would be "taking back the night" from the vampire, shapeshifters, and evil spirits. Very unlike the Anita series they will be hideous monsters without moral or ethic.

I imagine the vampire looking like this. Nothing like Anita's suave blood-suckers. I want to be rubbing shoulders with Laurell's world but nothing more, if that makes sense. We will be more about Merryverse and only taking the darker creature side of Anita's in our RP.

Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide

No more than ten people shall be play, for now. Everyone will have one character. Humans have no knowledge of our presence in the world and this is what we shall be fighting to defend.

Soral

ALL PICTURES MUST BE REAL PHOTOGRAPHS. NO ANIME, CARTOONS, DOLLS, ECTERA. I made this character sheet as detailed as possible so that, since we are all part of the same court, then we should all know somewhat about each others character before we begin the RP. If there are things you are not sure about put N/A in the space or a ? if you are not sure.

Does anyone have any more questions, comments, or concerns? Tizzation and myself are very open to all of your ideas. We are the GMs but we want the rest of our players to have some sway in what happens. Not too much because we have surprises in store. ^__^

I believe Josi is interested in one of those 10 spots and if I can I'd like to reserve one as well.  I should have a character worked up today or tomorrow.

The Anitaverse had the rotter vampires. They were pretty ugly and heavy-duty - as I recall, the only way to be sure you got one was to take a flamethrower to them until they were well-done.

I guess then my question is what our characters would generally do for money. Could a character just be independently wealthy, and put on the public face of being old money? Or should we have jobs (fae 7/11 workers, here we come!)?
Thank you, fellow Elliquiyan, and have a wonderful day.

It is massive! Well, thats Soral for you!

Cold Heritage

Love the avi, Tizzation.

Marc Cohn Walking in Memphis <- Obligatory?

An idea that occurs to me is to add 'titles' to the character sheet. If it applies, people can toss them on, and ignore if not. I'm thinking like, how, you know, Merry herself had all kinds of titles, Doyle was the Queen's Darkness, Frost was Killing Frost, that other guy was the Green Knight, etc. Or maybe just aliases or appellations or insulting nicknames people whisper behind a character's back to be snide. Dunno if that fits (or, more likely, Soral threw it in there and I didn't read well enough to catch it), but thought it would be fun.
Thank you, fellow Elliquiyan, and have a wonderful day.

Kuje

I'll sit down and work out a char sheet and post it tonight or morrow for sure.

Tizzation

I like your idea Cold Heritage, so if anyone wants to add a title to their character, feel free to do so. Also if there is a particular position such as council member, head of house, guard, cook or seamstress that you might be interested in, I think that can also enhance the RP, as long as you feel comfortable playing that role.

Only a characters that can use their glamour or that can pass for a human can have jobs, seeing as how humans have no knowledge of our existence. Anything that our characters need should be available within the mound.

Childhood: Kurst was raised amongst his mother's people, and he was mocked for being small.
Teen years: His teen years were filled with ritual challenges, until he discovered he possessed the Ríastrad and savaged a giant who insulted his mother to death with bare hands and teeth. None dared insult or challenge Kurst after that, such was his fury and savagery once the Warp Spasm was upon him. He also fought against dragons, as they still remained in Russian in those days. The Zmey fell to his sword. Once, he ate one's heart, and it allowed him to speak and understand the language of birds. He bathed in the blood of another, reinforcing his already great resistance to harm.
Adult years: Kurst earned the title 'of Battles' for fighting in the battles of mortals upon Russia soil. Sometimes he would fight posing as a Bogatyr, other times as a mercenary. Although his supernatural nature was obvious once battle was joined, Kurst did not stay long after battles and he became a figment of fairy tales. He also fought Vodyanoy - earning their ire - and rescued slaves taken by them. In the modern era, he fought for Russia in the World Wars, posing as a peasant conscript.
Past places of residence: Russia, Denmark, Sweden
History of family: Kurst's father was Sláine the Hound, a grand hunter and warrior. He earned an exile of one hundred and one years and a day for crimes committed against his own mound, and a geas was placed upon him that he could stay in one place for no longer than a single cycle of the moon before moving on. His journey's took him far and wide, and in Russia Sláine laid with a giant woman and begat a son. Sláine, of course, was able only to briefly and sporadically visit his son because of his geas as the boy grew, but he strove to do his fatherly duty to his flesh and blood. After Sláine's exile ended, he returned to his mound and was shortly thereafter murdered - poison was laced in his wine cup, and he was ten days and ten nights dying.

His mother is a Russian giantess known as Maržanna. She is a loving mother. Although she disapproves of his choice to go and be amongst his father's people, she knows that all sons must find their own place in the world. As a gift to him, she took part of his spirit, placed it in an acorn, and hid it in the chimney of her home, which walks upon three legs.
Briefly explain life story: Kurst fights because he likes it, and because when he is in the thunder of battle he feels whole. He has never known the love of a woman or known the fraternity of a true boon companion. He killed his father's murderer, and defended a noble of the Memphis Mound, earning the right to be part of it by virtue of spilled blood as well as his claim due to his father's position.

Relationships

Parents: Sláine the Hound and Maržanna
Siblings: N/A
Any enemies (and why): Gwydion mac Llyrion. Kurst killed Gwydion's father as a reprisal for Llyrion poisoning Sláine.
Children: None
Friends: N/A
Best friend(s): N/A
Important friends/relatives (explain): Abwyn Manaan mac Rab. Kurst acted as Abwyn's champion in a duel, defeating an opponent whose skill at arms far outstripped Abwyn's own. Kurst's motive was not altruistic - he was in a dark mood that day and spoiling for a fight, nothing more. The two, however, get along passingly well but they lack mutual interests. Abwyn is a gentle, peaceful soul - an incarnation of the solace and rest one can find in the darkness.
Love interest (if there is one): N/A

Combat

Peaceful or violent: Restrained violence. Kurst knows no greater love than the love of battle, but he knows to hold himself in check.
Weapon (if applicable): Kurst's greatest weapon is Sanglant. It is a broad, straight bladed sword with a bronze guard, handle, and pentagonal pommel. It was forged for Sláine, to aid him in hounding down his enemies: in Sláine's hand, any wound inflicted by Sanglant would not stop bleeding unless Sláine willed it or someone with a Hand of Blood interceded. For Kurst, however, the magic does not work, and wounds simply bleed excessively and are difficult, but not impossible, to staunch. Whether it is because the sword was made specifically for Sláine or because Kurst is a half-breed is unknown. He also owns a pair of Smith & Wesson Model 500 revolvers, and an AK-47.
Style of fighting: If he is in control of himself, Kurst fights with skill commensurate with his centuries of battle-experience. He is brutal and deadly, but emotionally in check for the most part. When the Warp Spasm is upon him, he fights savagely with no concern beyond killing his foe, employing mouth, hands, feet, and anything that might slay his opponent.

Magic
Because he ate the heart of a dragon, Kurst knows the language of birds. He may understand and speak to any bird. As he bathed in the blood of dragon, it has made him more resistant to harm, increasing an already truly superhuman durability manyfold.

Innate Abilities:
Conventional Sidhe capabilities; strength, and stamina greatly bolstered by his giant heritage, making them greater than those of a pureblooded Sidhe; durability over that of a pureblooded Sidhe due his giant's blood and as a result of bathing in dragon's blood; immunity to cold; the Ríastrad. Iron is less perilous to him because it is not a weakness of giants.

Kurst's magic powers revolve around cold, snow, and elements of winter, but he is, as all Sidhe, diminished in this modern time in comparison to what he could do in the past (though he never knew the height of power that those who were worshiped as gods and goddess in time immemorial knew). He could bring a large room to below freezing temperatures, but it would be taxing and that is the grandest feat he can perform in his current state.

His Hand of Power is the Iron Hand. He can turn his hands into iron, and manipulate iron (as well as steel, albeit to a lesser degree) - twisting its shape, making it rust, blunting an edge, and things of that nature.

He has sufficient glamour to pose as a mortal, but little else.

Others

Occupation: N/A
Current home: Memphis Mound
Favourite types of food: Veal; beef; venison; bison
Favourite types of drink: Vodka; chocolate milk; sweet beer; bitter beer
Hobbies/past times: Of old, he would hunt great beasts, but due to the rarity of such things in modern days he turns his hand to amateur gunsmithing. He can, and does, handload most of his ammunition.
Guilty pleasures: French fries.
Pet peeves: People who do not pay attention to his choice of words; unwashed dishes left in the sink;
Pets: N/A
Talents: Excellent skill with almost all weapons of the old world; skilled marksman proficient with most common firearms; makes excellent veal orloff and beef stroganoff. He can drive, and well. He is also capable of operating as part of a tank crew for WW2-era Soviet tanks.
Favourite colours: Red, blue, white, black
Favourite type of music: Neue Deutsche Härte, but some glam rock has a special place in his heart.
Thank you, fellow Elliquiyan, and have a wonderful day.

Sorry. Been away, dealing with some stuff.

Damn this character sheet was long, but here it is:

Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide

Middle name(s):
Surname: Nudd
Age: Ageless-- looks to be somewhere between 30 and 40
Date of birth: Mythic age
Race: Sidhe
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heteroflexible
Current residence: Memphis, probably has a place of his own outside of the Barrow but spends a lot of time @ the barrow as well.
Relationship status: Currently unattached.

Traits of Voice

Accent (if any): Speaks in fairly impeccable English; has adapted the American accent but has resisted southern twang.
Language spoken: English
Other languages known: Many
Style of speaking: Somewhat formal
Volume of voice: Deep but moderate.

Physical Appearence

Height: 5'11"
Weight: 215
Eye colour: tri-color rings, starting with a pale green, then two different shades of gray.
Skin colour: Sidhe white
Shape of face: Thick jaw
Distinguishing features: Body has a collection of scars of varying shapes and sizes.
Build of body: Broad of shoulder
Hair colour: grey/white
Hair style: Traditional sidhe length, i.e. long
Complexion: Gwynn's complexion is darkly swarthy
Posture: Poised but relaxed
Tattoos: None
Piercings: None
Typical clothing: Tends to go about in motorcycle boots, black cargo pants and a black t-shirt.

Personality

Likes: A bit of a gun / weapon nut, Gwynn is also a fan of music and movies, an outdoorsman, and definitely a boozer. Gwynn is very fond of dogs, having a collection of faerie-hounds which answer his call. He is also something of a self-taught motorcycle mechanic. He is something of a war history enthusiast, ranging from the Civil War to keeping an active knowledge of current geopolitics; his primary conflict of interest is WWII, however.
Dislikes: Gwynn has some specific dislike of the Confederacy, which sticks out in Memphis; he further has a distaste for bullies and those who are cruel to animals, particularly dogs. He further has a strong distaste for those in the fae courts pursuing divisive agendas.
Education: Gwynn is highly educated, particularly in matters concerning history and war; his interests range from geopolitics to literature and social science.
Fears: As an immortal Sidhe warrior, Gwynn has few fears which he has not faced directly, some even in battle. Mostly he fears that those mortals in whom he has some interest will fall victim to the vagaries of the fae Courts.
Personal goals: Gwynn's goals are mostly simple; he seeks to resolve conflicts which could lead to the outbreak of wider spread violence as quickly as possible. This sometimes leads him to wade into budding conflicts he has no personal stake in to take quick, decisive, and sometimes violent action to stop the spread of conflict.
General attitude: Gwynn is very laid back and friendly most of the time.
Religious values: Gwynn eschews mortal religions, having been worshipped as a god himself at one point. He has a particular distaste for conservative christianity, though he is interested in some Daoist and Buddhist philosophy.
General sociability: Gwynn is in general a sociable, friendly member of the Court, save for those instances when he is drawn into courtly politics, in which case he tends to be gruff, blunt, to the point, and often willing to prove his point at the end of a blade.

Health

Illnesses (if any): None.
Allergies (if any): None, save the general Sidhe aversion to cold iron and steel.
Sleeping habits: Gwynn is a bit of a night person, and not much of a morning person.
Energy level: While laid back, Gwynn has a deep reserve of stamina and is rarely seen winded; he never seems to be lacking for energy.
Eating habits: Eats with a certain gusto; a fan of venison particularly but very much a fan of roasted meats of all sorts, cheeses, and fresh baked breads. He does not seem to have much of a sweet tooth, but is a coffee afficianado.
Memory: Highly acute.
Any unhealthy habits: None.

History

Birth country: Wales
Hometown: The wilds
Childhood: Gwynn has very little memory of his childhood, which would have been thousands of years ago.
Teen years: See above.
Adult years: See below.
Past places of residence: Glastonbury Tor, San Francisco; traveled widely with the army during the first and second world wars.
History of family: By legend, Gwynn's father is Nodens. Depending on the decision of the mods, that could mean he is the son of Doyle from the books, as Doyle's identity in myth was Nodens. In general, Gwynn's family is well married throughout the Sidhe courts, linking him to both the Seelie and Unseelie courts generally by marriage of siblings or cousins.

Briefly explain life story:

Gwynn was once worshipped as the god Gwynn ap Nudd, which constitutes the majority of his early life. Gwynn ap Nudd was a god of battle and the afterlife, said to shepherd the souls of dead soldiers to the underworld. Later in life he became a king in his own right over faerie kind in his corner of wales, well known as a protector of the wild woods. He also spent some time with the Wild Hunt, leading it at several points against those who had violated the sanctity of the woods. Gwynn was one of the most reluctant to recede from his role in mortal folklore when the courts faced the scourge of the spread of Christianity, and one of the first to immigrate to America when the Sidhe were invited by Thomas Jefferson. Taking mortal disguise, he fought with the Union in the Civil War, and involved himself in training soldiers for both the First and Second World Wars. He joined the peace movement of the 60's, and encouraged the idea of world peace.

Relationships

Parents: Nodens, Sidhe Lady of some sort
Siblings: Many, most married in some form or another to others in the Sidhe court.
Any enemies (and why): Gwynn has made some enemies in the fae courts for intervening in conflicts which threatened war, usually swiftly, bluntly, and often brutally. While Gwynn bears them no personal grudge, his end goal being mostly to circumvent the budding conflict, many may bear him personal grudge.
Children: Gwynn has probably had some children over his many many years, both among the fae courts and with mortals, but at this time I have no specific plans regarding them.
Friends:
Best friend(s):
Important friends/relatives (explain):
Love interest (if there is one):

Combat

Peaceful or violent: Violent
Weapon (if applicable): Gwynn is proficient with most guns, is an excellent swordsman, and generally proficient in the use of most weapons.
Style of fighting: Gwynn has studied a wide array of martial combat forms. His current form is best recognized as a modified Krav Maga.

Magic

Innate Abilities:

Right Hand of Power-- Hand of Death's Command: Gwynn is one of the few Sidhe who can raise zombies and command them to do his bidding. Usually he employs this power mostly in combat, calling the recently fallen to rise and fight under his command, though the Hand of Power is not technically limited that way. It is more that Gwynn prefers to leave the dead to rest unless he has specific need of them. This hand of power is partly responsible for his legendary role of leading deceased soldiers to the underworld.

Left Hand of Power-- Hand of Blood: Much as Merry Gentry's Hand of Power, Gwynn can cause old woulds to open and gush blood. Overuse of this power is dangerous, however, as it can cause Gwynn's own many past wounds to open and bleed as well.

The two hands combined make Gwynn one of the most feared military commanders in the faerie courts, though most take comfort in the knowledge that Gwynn has mostly taken up the cause of de-escalating skirmishes between the courts and at large.

In addition:

Gwynn can speak directly with dogs in both directions (understanding them as well as speaking to be understood).

Gwynn is a preternaturally skilled woodsman, able to extend his senses to encompass the entirety of a naturally wooded area he is physically present in.

It is rumored that Gwynn can call the Wild Hunt, though this is not a power that Gwynn has been seen to exercise in at least a thousand years. He /has/ been known to call fae hounds to his service, sometimes even packs of them.

Finally, Gwynn seems to have knowledge of pathways and portals through reality, able to travel between localities through faerie passageways and the like. Gwynn has remained mum as to whether he truly remembers the pathways to the afterlife, but many speculate he still escorts the souls of soldiers he finds worthy to the underworld.

Others

Occupation: Currently, Gwynn operates a security consultancy firm which specializes in defending high-profile celebrities, and training security forces to contain outbreaks of mob violence with non-lethal combat techniques.
Current home: Gwynn has a residence in the Memphis Barrow, but he also has an estate in the Memphis ex-urbs, a moderately sized house surrounded by a deeply wooded area.
Favourite types of food: Venison, most roasted meats.
Favourite types of drink: Whiskey of most sorts, particularly bourbon, mead, dark red wines, and dark, craft brew beers.
Hobbies/past times: Gwynn raises and breeds dogs at his private estate, in addition to heading up a mixed martial arts dojo.
Guilty pleasures: Gwynn loves romance comedies.
Pet peeves: Bullies.
Pets: Gwynn has a number of dogs on his own estate.
Talents:
Favourite colours: Gwynn tends to favor black in his clothing selections.
Favourite type of music: Gwynn is a fan of rock music, less of a fan of country music.

Josietta

Wow so he's pretty much Merry, Doyle, and Rhys. Combined. Hmm way more powerful than I had this game pegged for.

I thought Merry was fairly unique in having two, but a brief google search turns up Andais and Essus having two as well - Air and Shadow and Flame and Flesh, respectively. But it's been a while since I read the books, too, and I don't know how trustworthy the first couple google hits are.
Thank you, fellow Elliquiyan, and have a wonderful day.

+1 on this, but ultimately up to the GM's of course. Though I guess having an older or just as old as the Queen char would work, since it runs with the books theme. I mean look at all the Men. Ageless. However, unless he is the Sidhe King, he should be allowed only one Hand.

I'll take this opportunity to point out though that honestly...his age won't matter in certain aspects, like when the Queen orders something. Her word is law.

Sorry if I've overstepped my bounds Tizz and Soral!

Stop the madness!!! haha....

OK, In my opinion Shadow Walkers age is irrelevant. Age does not influence who the ruler is. Is it practical to say that bubby's character has been the one and only ruler of the Unseelie court forever? Monarchs can be killed, step down ( i.e Cel vs Merry) , ect. The way everyone has developed their characters, almost all of them come from different geographical locations. The sidhe race was once widespread and extensive across the world, until the last couple centuries, so lets say that Shadow Walkers char is ancient and so is bubby's... maybe she feels threatened by this like Andais was of Barinthus.
QuoteBarinthus/Manannan Mac Lir - A sea god and one of the Queen's Ravens, Barinthus is one of the most powerful members of the Courts. He was long known as the "Kingmaker" for his involvement in the selection of court rulers, and supported first Essus, now Merry for the Unseelie throne. Queen Andais fears that Barinthus may make an attempt for the throne himself, and he is the only member of the guards Andais has forbidden Merry to have reproductive intercourse with, for fear that Barinthus would become Merry's consort and the Unseelie King. Barinthus recently had some of his powers returned via metaphysical sex with Merry, and has become a member of Merry's guard.

That said, in regards to the 'two hands of power', lets limit it to one hand of power per character, to be fair to everyone.

Are there any other questions or suggestions or complaints? Soral and I welcome any and all queries, I want to make sure that everyone is on the same page and that all issues are laid to rest before we start.

Speaking of starting, I am planning on starting the actual RP within the next 48hrs.

SOOOOOOO YAY!!!...

Cold Heritage

I would have no problem with bubby's queen having two.

Although it makes me uncomfortable to be critical of someone else's character, I want to express that I have similar misgivings about ShadowWalker's character as those voiced. The issue of the character's age is not something that concerns me, though - I have no problem with the character being born in time immemorial. What concerns me is that the character possesses many, significant, potent capabilities. The Hand of Death's Command alone is an incredible ability on its own, but when considered in the context that one of the factions our characters are to be in conflict with is vampires it becomes rather overwhelming. Just overall, the character seems much less diminished than the canon characters were before Merry reawakened their powers. The character is powerful to a degree that it does not really seem to fit in with the others.
Thank you, fellow Elliquiyan, and have a wonderful day.

I've spoken with Tizz, and Queen will have 1 Hand, that of shadow/darkness manipulation, and 2 innate...air suck outta a room and hearing things spoken on the night winds.
