There is going to be
one last round in the King’s Rangers area. This gives everyone a chance to do any final collaborative posts, and to have their characters prepare for the journey ahead. There are enough horses for everyone to have one, save for Hanus, who will be using his own mount—a giant salamander-like lizard from The Abyss.
After this round, to save everyone’s time so that we aren’t wasting several posts talking about travelling across expanses of nothingness, where nothing happens, I’m just going to move the party from the King’s Rangers outpost to the next interesting event and describe the passage of time prior to that. Otherwise this role play would be several pages of “and our heroes walked.”
To that end, as mentioned in the second part of the IC post (which happens three hours after the first part), there will be a small scouting party that moves ahead of the group. This party will be comprised of one NPC (other than Kouri), and four PC’s. In the interests of keeping things interesting for all of you,
y’all get to choose here in the OOC. You can...
--Volunteer your PC for the scouting mission. (Which you can then volunteer them in the IC as well as in the OOC, or an NPC will choose them to come along with them if you only volunteer them in the OOC.)
--Vote on the NPC to lead the party. You can
vote here. (If nobody votes or if there is a tie, I’ll choose myself among the highest ranked options.)
Remember that the NPC chosen and the PC’s volunteered will change what the scouting party encounters, and how they deal with it.
