[OOC] Sorry cptdeath, I must have been interrupted while processing your character. If this happens to anyone else then just bump the PM as I've probably checked and forgot about it.

As for me not moving this story along a bit more, I'm waiting for the PC's to go to the graveyard or for me to have some other idea.

Just had a thought, If any players have some idea that they want to happen in the plot but as a player will be unable to push the story in that direction without breaking character, then feel free to PM me with a request to push the story in that direction and I'll try my best to do so. (Results will not be immediate)[/OOC]

[Lupus590]

[OOC] I've changed character creation slightly, most of you should not be affected by the change. Those that are I have messaged.
On another note, if anyone wants to make adjustment to their character, then message me the change.[/OOC]

*to Sandwich*
"You can call me Pulse."

*to Nico, whispering*
"He's very interesting to say the least, and he seems a bit... TOO friendly."

[Cranium]

[OOC]I've just been super busy this weekend, and haven't had much time to devote to this thing. So busy, geez...[/OOC]
"Ah, where are my manners? I am called Nico, and this is my companion Pulse."
Nico claps a large paw on Pulse's shoulders, almost knocking the small adolescent to the ground.
"He looks small, but is strong. I am thinking I will not eat him."
[OOC]Dernit, a bit too slow... I'm at work and have to find time between calls to make these posts.[/OOC]
"Ah, where are my manners? You may call me Nico."

[OOC]Well, why not get the story along then shall we?[/OOC]

A man starts walking past a group who is speaking to each other. He passes by without making any eye contact and just keeps going.
He then stops and asks a nearby guard, "Hey, do you know where I can find the cemetery? I must pay my respects to an old friend."

[Lupus590]

The wind blows a bit stronger, the rotting smell becomes more pungent.

Pinching his nose, the guard answers "Follow your nose.Also, I think they are doing something there so you may want to go with them." He points to the group

The guard pauses for a moment as a puzzled look appears on his face. "What are you doing visiting a grave at this time of night?"

[KnightMiner]

[OOC]I think it is worth mentioning that my character does not exactly know what the quest is. He had just asked when Sandwich showed up, so can Nico or Pulse mention that either when we set towards the graveyard, or when cptdeath58's character meets the group?[/OOC]

[OOC]I actually think it might be easier to shoehorn the current plot if your character asks what's going on.[OOC]

Precisely. I am setting that motion, but it needs one more action to go forward and that relies on your character's decisions.
Of course, I am not forcing your characters to follow up, it is entirely your decision.
[/OOC]

He then looks to the guard and says to him, "I like to do my business in the night... Less commotion and trouble."
He then glances to the group and the only thing revealed is his eyes. He then quickly looks back and continues, "Thank you, but I must go now."
He then starts walking in the direction of the rotten smell.

Nico, worried for the traveler's safety, calls out to the man to stop.
"Ho, traveler! You plan on going there alone, yes? You have not heard the stories, I am thinking? Of course not, you are fool. We come with you, no?"
Nico looks to his new companions, searching for their consent.

[cptdeath58]

The man then looks at the unexpected visitor.
He then says, "Aye, I do plan to go alone, but what stories do you speak of?"
He then looks at the other people of the group.
He then continues, "Seems you are on the same page I am... Aye, you may come with me, but be careful. At this time of night, many things can happen."
He then casts a ball of light to help him see where he is going.
He then looks back to the person, "And why do you call me a fool? You seem to be smarter by standing out in the open at night for thieves and assassins."

Nico grins, seeing the magic. "Ha! Perhaps you are right! It seems that you are more than what you seem. But only a fool would attack me. I am very strong, so no foolish assassin harms me." He flexes impressively while hefting his massive axe in a threatening manner, as if to scare any would-be assassins brave enough to attack him.
"Come friend, we go to the danger together." As the group starts walking again, with their new companion in tow, Nico questions the traveler about himself.
"I am called Nico, what are you called, foolish one?"

name

[cptdeath58]

He then looks at the warrior, "I am Jacob Harrison, and once again I am no fool... You may be strong, but my magic is stronger."
He then pulls out his spell book and reviews his spells. "But anyhow, I haven't got your names."
He then grins.

[Pyrif]

"Hmm... Regardless of what plans you have between our names and that spellbook, I am Pulse."

[H4X0RZ]

"You can call nem Sandwich."

"Sandwich tries to look into the spellbook*

[Cranium]

[OOC]Oh man, if we have to introduce ourselves every time we meet someone, it's gonna get old fast. I went ahead and edited my previous post to slip my name in there. No need for us to have so many posts introducing ourselves.[/OOC]

[Lupus590]

[OOC] Agreed, from now on can we assume that existing PCs introduce themselves by name when a new PC joins the party. The new player should still do their introduction.[/OOC]

[cptdeath58]

*Closes the spell book and puts it in a satchel. *
"Nice to meet you all. Now then, lets get moving... I sense something is wrong with the cemetery"
He then looks at the group, then to Nico.
"You sure you guys are ready for this?"

[Pyrif]

"Why wouldn't we be ready if we spent all this time trying to get here?"

[cptdeath58]

"Perhaps... but the dangers ahead may be more powerful than we can handle. But, what am I saying. Lets get going."
He then starts to walk to the cemetery.
