Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 06, 2004, 10:25:39 PM Its getting talked about enough to warrant its own thread now, in my opinion.
I would like to post the following screenshots, to begin with... Jadrienne Starfire, praying to the statue of Dagath in his form of Death, at the Shrine in Le'or'T'Nanshi: Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 06, 2004, 10:27:10 PM Yes I'm multiple posting; I don't care.

Nevermind, found another download place (http://www.avlis.org/viewtopic.php?t=32160) (near bottom of page). :) Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 09, 2004, 07:13:22 PM Quote mrrrrrrrrrroooowww, cat suit, got that kinky mask yet?

Got a cool little event from Sindol after converting a newb to Dagath - he was playing around with the 'tiny' and 'fine' versions of the Beetles, which are quite nice opponents for the level 3s I was with. Then he spawned a 'gargantuan Stink Beetle', which was bigger than a Bebilith. Quote [Sindol] [Tell]: Holy fuck thats HUGE! [NWDuneAuron] Jadrienne Starfire [Tell]: YOU'RE TELLING ME?! Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 09, 2004, 11:02:30 PM Sindol really is gifted ^^.
Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: SS on June 09, 2004, 11:37:07 PM I know I'm not particularly sharp-minded at the moment, but I've read that a few times and the humour still evades me? :miffed:
Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 10, 2004, 07:50:23 AM Its a contrived explanation for a question he created but didnt see coming - Hert is a very fat NPC, and Sindol said, with Mina, that he doesnt drink alcohol. He lives in M'chek, which has a food shortage, so how did he get that size?
Chocolate. I nearly fell off my chair. It was hilarious. You had to be there, probably. It'd be easier to understand without Calia and Aila talking. Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: SS on June 10, 2004, 11:53:43 AM Ah. I thought "eyes Hert" was 'stupid-talk' for my eyes are hurting, which I linked with the headache bit. :/
Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: mole on June 10, 2004, 10:26:54 PM during a trip to the 'wartorn village of blandenburg' today i comendeered a flame throwing catapult battery, removed it form its cliff top perch and proceeded to drag it round the village to shoot armoured humans.
while readjusting its direction i was shocked to see 20 or more seargents appear all around me and luckily for me i was in stealth mode and they all ran off, so there i was licking my lips and adjusting again to blow the bastards to hell and who runs throw them all and straight at my wooden friend just as i press fire? Gareth bleeding rosethorne and his other special forces friend to check out the random flamingness: Quote Rosethorne: someone has been fucking with this catapult Rosethorne: i saw it firing...by itself Dethrune: destroy it Rosethorne: cant Dethrune: hmmm *Rosethorne proceeds to move it further around the village* Dethrune: moving? Rosethorne: im doint it *convo gap as i duck behind a building* Dethrune: us? Rosethorne: Nan'sh'tal (an elven fort) Dethrune: sure Rosethorne: lead me there Rosethorne: north and west, you know Rosethorne: use our tactics Dethrune: been there once *the two enemy soldiers proceed to the north and away from the catapult. meanwhile i come up behind thenm and spin the catapult around firing the way they ran and hid back inot a shadowy corner* *they come back promptly with rosethorne leading* Rosethorne: Madon, you have eyes and ears at all? Dethrune: A bit Rosethorne: use them, damn it...someone fired the fucking catapult at us *fails a spot check majorly* and they aventually get bored and managed to loose me runnign around different buildings, could be interesting to keep an eye on them i think Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 11, 2004, 09:23:04 AM Post that in the character quotes thread... I'm dying with laughter here.
Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: RipperRoo on June 11, 2004, 10:12:35 AM Rofl, that would have been hillarious to see.
Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: mole on June 11, 2004, 11:04:58 AM wonder what my parents thought all the giggling was :huh:
EDIT echy the forum is really slow can you either throw me the thread link or post it for me? Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 11, 2004, 10:52:12 PM Screens from tonights game. Me, Chris, Pete, level 40 characters, Ruins of the Twisted Wood. Bags of fun.
First up, Elven Cleric/Fighter/Weaponmaster, Saniseile, surveying the work of her pet Balor and companions: Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 11, 2004, 10:55:00 PM Secondly, Sani having a rather heated discussion with a pair of Demons...
Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 11, 2004, 10:55:36 PM And lastly, one more of Sani bagging herself a big'un.

And thats without a single weapon buff!! Huge ~1MB image. (http://ripperroo.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/images/pwned!.PNG) SS your forum is shit, why cant it post the bloody URL rather than changing it to (ps, I'm dumpid) Well if you'd use actual proper words, instead of stupid lamer phrases... :P Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 12, 2004, 10:05:32 AM I'm currently attempting the cheesiest Arcane Archer build I can make. I propose that we have another game today :).
Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: RipperRoo on June 12, 2004, 12:05:42 PM Fair enough, Im gonna do a monk/weapon master, using Kukris!
Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: mole on June 12, 2004, 12:37:28 PM if i can i will Aurora is going to be my best friend as soon as im free :rolleyes:
Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 12, 2004, 01:04:27 PM Okay, I'm mentally ill. Arcane Archer with Devastating Critical: Lowbow, Hide in Plain Sight, Hide/Movesilent 62, Enchant Arrow 13 (+13 arrows), Strength/Dexterity 26, DR +8/15, 50% pierce immunity and -/10 resistance to all elements usually found on arrows.
I can solo the Clan Gnashing Teeth Inner Sanctum, until I go into one of the buildings and my lack of AoE attacks starts to matter. Help me. She ain't a tank, however, so if we want someone who can take hits, it'll be Saniseile with some of the custom gear I'm about to make her, after doing a rebuild - She was very powerful, yes, but she was also rushed and not perfect... which I'm about to fix. Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: RipperRoo on June 12, 2004, 03:20:47 PM I can take hits!
Ive done my red-headed Barbarian! 798hp :D And thats only because my Str is 23 rather than taking my Con higher... Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 12, 2004, 05:58:48 PM o.O
I'll prod you on MSN... Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 12, 2004, 10:18:53 PM I didnt have the foresight to screen all of this, unfortunately, so you can have a segment. Jad and Lilly discuss their eating habits - Jad eats little, and is skinny. Lilly eats lots, and is about average build. Lilly attempts to get Jad to eat more, so threatens to take Jad to 5 meals a day. Hilarity ensues for all involved...
Not particularly funny as a fragment, granted, but you'll get the idea: Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: SS on June 12, 2004, 10:34:07 PM Quote I didnt have the foresight to screen all of this, unfortunately, so you can have a segment. Can't you do conversation logging stuff with the thingy whatsit? Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 12, 2004, 10:40:36 PM Quote Can't you do conversation logging stuff with the thingy whatsit? Yep... if I could be bothered. I'll go do it now... Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 13, 2004, 08:09:02 PM Quote Labour got utterly fucked in the Local Elections!

Hows about the Sneaking Hard-Arsed Dark Order of Wrongdoing Slayers? :D Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: SS on June 16, 2004, 11:32:17 PM Quote Then he spawned a 'gargantuan Stink Beetle', which was bigger than a Bebilith. Heh. Not knowing how big a Bebilith was, I was thinking roughly Umber-hulk size.Quote [Sindol] [Tell]: Holy fuck thats HUGE! [NWDuneAuron] Jadrienne Starfire [Tell]: YOU'RE TELLING ME?! Then I went into the beetle caves, and actually met one. :ph34r: Well, five, in total. And a million or so regular ones. Pity I didn't think to take a picture... was too busy holding my nose. :miffed: Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: RipperRoo on June 16, 2004, 11:36:01 PM Just came out of the beetle caves, netted me a nice 650 exp, level 7, Amulet of Natural Armor +2, Ring of Protection +2. Sorted.
Oh yea, and half a tonne of Firebeetle bellies, left a load for the other party members though. I dont think those beetles are even Gargantuan, I thought they were just huge. :| That huge stag beetle hurt though, I mean hurt... Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: SS on June 16, 2004, 11:47:20 PM Quote I dont think those beetles are even Gargantuan, I thought they were just huge. :blink: Yikes! I'd hate to see how big the Gargantuan ones are then. Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 17, 2004, 08:57:02 AM I just opened up the toolset - Gargantuan ones actually make a Bebilith look pretty wimpy o.O.
Anyway yesterday, you two enjoyed the beetle caves, we made statues then went down the Orc Caves. They're VERY nasty. Partied with Sand and Flint (level 21/18), I was still getting 15 exp for Orc Infiltrators, and 50+ exp for Orog High Mages. Nasty.

[Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] begin wher you feel fit and Ill help from there [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Well... perhaps we can speed things up [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *nods* [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] volume II *giggles* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Well *smiles* No, but we will keep things a bit fast [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] You are here to learn about magic, and where mages come from [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *listens* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The world as you know it is awash in magic [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] And as far as we know, it has always been that way [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Avlis was made from the creator out of nothingness, using the power of the Eternal Spark of Creation and the Black Dagger of Destruction [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Even from it's first beginnings, before any of us were created, the world had magic [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] There were spirits in this world that touched the same source of arcane that you do today [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] This source of magic is what we call the Vortex of Mortal Magic [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] This source lies far off in the planes beyond our world, but its energies infuse all of Avlis [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Some time after the creation of the world, it was invaded from without [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] A powerful demon came to the world, and sought dominion here over everything [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] This creature, called the Negerai, caused so much destruction, that the Supreme Being that created our world stepped in. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The Supreme found among the Negerai's forces nine human prisoners that the Negerai held [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The Supreme blessed these nine prisoners, and they fought against the Negerai [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] In the course of this battle, these nine become the Nine Great Gods that we know today [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Gorethar, O'Ma, Dru'El, Maleki, Aarilax, Mikon, Valok, Forian and Toran [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *quietly* praise Maleki. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The battle raged for many years, possibly centuries [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] And was only finally ended when... *looks to Spit* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Please sit down, young man [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *giggles* [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] spit [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *stifles a chuckle* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] As I was saying *a little abboyed* [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *swears profusely* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *annoyed* [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] sorry, got a numb leg [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The battle raged for centuries [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *nods and smiles* I understand dear [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] In fact, the battle was finally ended when one fo the Negerai's own demons turned against it [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] And peace, or a sort finally came to our world. [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] *puts his elbow on the arm of the throne and rests his head on his hand* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] However, these nine gods are a large part of the reason for the Orders we know of today. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Each of the gods made for themselves a race to follow them. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Each god was of a different temperament and philosophy [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] As these peoples grew in number, the gods taught them much, including the arts of magic [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] But each group sought to guide the use of magic according to their own god's philosophy [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Thus from nine gods and nine peoples, we found ourselves with nine major mage orders [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] This was all some two thousand andfour hundred yeats ago, or so [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *raises hand* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] At first, these nine orders worked together relatively well [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Yes? [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] But I thought Andrinor was a God Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] H...he... c...c..comes... l...later. [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *smiles* much later dear [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *turns really red* oh [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Only for about two hundred years now, my dear Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] V...v...volume... f...four, s...sir. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Andrinor is really quite young [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *nods, understanding* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] So... where was I? [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *looks down* [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] You said that the Orders were working well at first... [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Ah, yes, the nine orders... at the time, they worked together to regulate all magic on Avlis [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *nods* They were the Fold of the Nine [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] You can hear of them scattered around ancient text books [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] *stil leaning his head on his hand, he starts tapping his cheek with on finger* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] This was a time of great wonder... [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The mages then worked feats that are only dreamt of today [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] That is part of the reason that the greatest artifacts known to Avlis were nearly all created in the far past [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] But this time of peace was destined to end [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The first major breaking of peace among the mortals occured roughly two thousand four hundred years ago [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The fairy kind turned against each other in a frightfully bloody was we call the Fairy War [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *ears perk* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Unfrotunately, since the fay are so wide-spread, everyone felt the pain of their magical battles [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] It was by all accounts a horrible time, when magic caused great heartache [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] It waged for nearly fifty years. [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *mutters* bloody fairies. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] But even that war was only a prelude to an even greater conflict [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] *Listens with some interest, but seems hardly focused* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The fighting among the fairies stirred the orcs in their eastern nation of Dobrekon [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The Dobrekon orcs, presumably in retalliation against attacks on their kind by the fey, rallied themselves into a mighty army [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] *raises hand* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *looks over notes* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Hm, yes? [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] But, I thought you said that the fey battled themselves, in a civil war? [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] Why would they attack the Orcs? [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Yes, they did. Unfortunately, they weren't vey disciplined in their battles Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] A...a...accidents? [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] if they are anything like ogres i cant blame them [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] If i may interject dear? [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *reads ahead quickly* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] They used illusions and ... yes, please, Effie [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] the fey were fighting against themselves [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] it is supposition, that the figthing in Dobrekon angered the orcs [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] and they sought to end the fighting int heir lands [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] Ahhh... *nods understanding* [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] and in the process, they happened to pick on others in their lands [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] not just the fey [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] sorry dear *to Hilde* please continue [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *smiles and nods* Exactly [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] It was at this time that the orcs changed from a relatively peaceful people to a tightly organized miliary society [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] They formed a powerful army, aided in great part by the Gold ORder mages and Baatezu they had summoned from their god's realm [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *jots something down in a book* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The Dobrekon army attacked its neighbors, targetting fey, but also attempting to purge the elves and humans in t their land Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] *perks an eyebrow at the mention of devils* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] This marked the meginning of the Great War [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *sighs* I wish we had time to cover this in detail, but suffice it to say, this war was like nothing we've seen since [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The orcs found themselves fighting against the dwarves elves and fey who had rallied against them [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Also, the humans who lived near Dobrekon joined the fight [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Over a full century, fighting waged, dragging in surrounding nations, and most importantly for us, the mages [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *looks annoyed* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The Fold of Nine attempted to hold together during this time [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] it must have been glorious to watch. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] And even during the battles, the Gold Order still met with its colleagues, but undoubtedly there was strain among them [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *coughs* uh [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *soft chuckle* Well, interesting, anyway, to watch. Provided you weren't killed [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] It gets "better" [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *grimaces* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] This war saw events such as the coming of dragons to Avlis [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Over the centure of fighting, the orcs were driven clear across the continent [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] They finally gathered along a narrow strip of land to the far west, fortifying a place called Brekon [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] There, the Gold Order began a powerfulevocation designed to win the day [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *winces* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *sighs sadly* We have very little information from this time... [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *nods gravely* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] But this spell was rumored to have been designed to wipe out ALL the orcs' enemies [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Imagine, if you will, such power. [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] yes... [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] An amazing force, but one that would have horrible consequences if anything went wrong. [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *pretends to cast a big spell* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *scratches hair absently* Actually, I suppose the consequences would have been prety horrible if the spell went right [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *chuckles to self* Anyway... [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] indeed [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *nods* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] This spell was fearsomely potent, but unfortunately for the orcs, the spell did go wrong [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The final evocation of teh Gold Order failed horribly. [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] Umm.. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] We don't know exactly what occurred... oh mmy [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *looks around* [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *looks around* [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *looks scares* [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *looks about nervously* [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] Good timing.. [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] What was that? [NamligSirhc] Namlig Sirhc: [Talk] Hmmm. [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] Eh? [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *smiles* Andrinor watches us surely [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] *leans forward* [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *grabs arm of chair tightly* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *frowns* I do hope we aren't to be interripted [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] O-oh my [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] Earthquake I guess.. [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] oh! *looks up nervously* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Anyway... [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] *leans back again and crosses his arms* Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] A...a...a... m...minute... d...d..demonstration... o...of... w...w...what... o...occured... [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Now where was I... oh yes [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The final evocation... what happened? [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] decimation [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] Worse, almost total annihilation [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] We don't know. Some rumors suggest an artifact interfered with the spell. Others suggest the elves broke ino n the ceremony [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The result, however, was a wave of magical power that swept across the entire continent [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] In a few short moments, hundreds of thousands of people, from Brekon to Drotid, were killed [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *listens excited* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The old orc homeland of Dobrekon was destroyed and broken [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] And *sadly* every last orc wizard and sorcerer was slain [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *shivers* the loss ... [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] Every one? Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] H...hence... O...o...orc... m...mages... b...b...being... o...outcast. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] This world-shattering event, thankfully, has never been repeated [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *chuckles* Andrinor forbid, should the gnomish ever invent a device of such power apon explosion [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *nods to Moravius* [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] of course... [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The entire world was stunned [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Of course, the war ended there and then [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] But for the mages, this was a traumatic experience [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The Gold was broken. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Even Valok turned against his own mages, forming the Dominators to hunt down any orc wizards that might remain or might reappear in the future [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The Fold of Nine... well, deep wounds had been inflicted [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *shakes head* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] With the war, there was distruct among the orders, and they were in essence just a Fold of Eight [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] They continued to try regulating magic, but coming together became harder for them [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] *listens with clearly more focus* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] This all occurred two thouseand years ago [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *raises hand* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *looks to Effie* Did I miss anything about the old times, dear? [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] I think you covered it fairly well [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *looks to Rory* YEs? [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] According to the book... [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *smiles* [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] The Great War interrupted the Fairy War [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Yes [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] With the fey promising to resume later [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] Did they ever take up their "disagreement"? [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *nods* After all evil was banished from Avlis, I believe Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] E...e...ever... s...seen... O...o...o'mans... a...and... T...titanians... f...fighting... i...in... T...t...t'nanshi? [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] their is ceratainly still a touch of hostility there [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Until that time, we are supposedly safe from another Fairy War [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *nods* Officially, the two sides say there is a truce [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *nods* I have been witness to some at Elf Gate [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] hostilities that is Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] T...thats... y...y...your.. .f...fairy... w...w...war. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] But they certainly don't mind attacking one another at the slightest provocation [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *nods* thank you *smiles* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Please realize, that is the Fairy War ever truly resumed, we would all likely die very quickly [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] What we see this day are trvial skirmishes [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *nods* [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *shakes head* there was an awful powerful summoner there [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] Are a group of them [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *Or [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] During the actual war, the fey used powerful magics to enchant entire populations to be their soldiers [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] *looks shocked* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] All the animals fo the forest fought at their call [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Even trees were bent to their will, I'd imagine [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *looks disturbed* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The Fairy War was not a trivial event [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] damnable critters them fairies. Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] A...a...all... t...this, t...they... h...h...hide... b...behind... t...t...terminal... c...cuteness. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *smiles* Remember, however, the restraint they still hold onto [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *coughs* *heh* [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] *chuckles at Jadriennes statement* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] They are two races that have disciplined themselves against an in-grained hatred for 2000 years [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Few of us can say the same [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *smiles* well, the war is really between Titiana and Oma [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *coughs* [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] Titiana's fey, are merely doing their God's bidding - or were [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Well... so why don't we have the nine mage orders today? [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *sniffles, wipes nose on sleeve* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Sorry, my dear [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] no, please go on [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *nods, and looks back to class for answer* [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] Is it because they have never recouped from the devestation of the Great War? Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] C...c...continue, p...please, H...h...hilde. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Only in a very small part *to Mortavius* [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] All mages beign destroyed left no one to start them? [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Remember, that was thousands of years ago. Plenty of time for the ORders to recover [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *shakes head* Actually, the Orders were doing fairly well, except the Gold, of courswe Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] *flicks through a book* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] For a thousand years after the Great War, we even had what we call the Age of Peace [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] *scratches head, wondering what happend* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Please don't smoke in here young man [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *frowns* [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] *coughs* Indeed.. please, don't [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *frowns in irritation* [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *grins* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Oh, the tower! Yes, thank you, I forgot [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *concentrates* Something about a vortex I've read [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *nods to Rory* Yes, we'll come to that as well Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] *picks up another book* [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *smiles* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] As Effie reminded me... the Fold of the Nine met at one time in a great tower in the elven city of Le'Or'T'Nanshi [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] bah! [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Apparenly the tower itself was built within a huge living tree [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] This, or course, was before the Great War [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] *takes a smal piece of chocolate out of a bag and eats it slowly* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] ... and even during the War. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] With the final evocation, and destruction of teh Gold, the Fold of Nine was reduced [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] ... becoming the Fold of Eight. The Tower was largely abandoned [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Although periodically the mage orders would still gather there, the great tower was no longer the center of magic in the world [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] It became in many ways the symbol of the Broken Fold of the Nine [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *to Effie* I hear your Order may actually be rennovating the old tower [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Amazing that the tree should be still standing after all these centuries [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *nods* fen, it is under renovation, to be our home [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *chews on his unlit pipe* [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] we have tried to preserve what was left of it [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *nods* [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] which will be for public view [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Yes, well, as I said, the orders did try to carry on as best they could. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] And in fact, they were able to regulate magic to a great extent until the year two thousand [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] At this point, a powerful world-shattering event occurred... [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *looks around for any glint of recognition in students* [NamligSirhc] Namlig Sirhc: [Talk] The asceinsion of Andrinor. didn't that send most of the orders into hiding? [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] oh goodness?! [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Exactly! Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] *nods* [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *chuckles* [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *smiles* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *beaming smile* Well done [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *stretches* sorry [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] I reckon 'e 'as been readin' ahead. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Andrinor's ascension was in many ways a lethal blow to the old orders. Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] S...some... o...of... u...u...us... k...know... o...our... h...h...histories, S...spit. [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] but that... is for the next seminar i beleive? *smiles* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Young Andrinor *sighs* such a burden he took on humself [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Oh? [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *smiles* Very well [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Perhaps we should mention his ascension? [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *nods* very well [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Well, the short version, in case you aren't taught it, Andrinor began as a mortal like us [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Well, techincally he was a teifling, so not exactly like us, but a sorcerer of some poer [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *poer [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *power [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *coughs* Pardon my stutter Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] *coughs quietly* [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] no mind dear, I do it all the time.... [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Anyway... Andrinor, along with some other mortals, become involved in a war of sorts between Angadar and Valok [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] In the realms beyond, Andrinor found himself aligned with Angadar, who as you should all know was the God of Arcane Knowledge [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] *nods quietly* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] In exchange for Andrinor's aid as a sorcerer with fiendish blood, Angadar infused into Andrinor a great deal of power, and gave him access to his library [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] was? [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Was as in he is now god of arcane magic AND deceit and trickery [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Angadar was only the god of Arcane Knowledge at the time [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] Thanks *scribbles nots* [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *notes [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *shake head* And where I said Angadar is god of arcane magic, I meant knowledge [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] During the great final battle between Valok and Angadar, a battle in which O'Ma and his children actually took a side... [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] In the battle, Andrinor used the power and knowledge he'd gained from Angadar to seize control of the Vortex of Chaos [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] er... Vortex of Magic [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *chuckles* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] In that moment, Andrinor the mortal teifling becam Andrinor, the God of Mortal Magic [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] harah! [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *smiles* And that... covers the history of magic, very superficially, from the time before Andrinor [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *to Effie* Did I miss anything dear? Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] G...g...good... p...pay... p...p...package... w...with... t...that, I...I...I... w...would... t...t...think. [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] oh, I think that covers all dear [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *soft chuckle* I would think [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] Now, weren't some of the other mages or mage orders also trying to seize to Vortex for themselves? [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *giggles at Jadrienne* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] That is for your next instructor to explain [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] I think you are confusing vortex's [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] Ah, thanks *smiles* [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] More than likely [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] And in fact, unless you have pressing questions, Effie and I should be leaving so he can arrive [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] *smiles* fen [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] You will all be staying here [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *looks puzzled* [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] You may all take a break if you wish, but need to return here [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] It's much less of a strain on the portals if only Effie and I do the traveling [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] your next classes will resume shortly, here instead of Frrell as advertised dear [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] *under breath* And they haven't all been reliable portals [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] Ahh.. that's excellent [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] oh [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] *nods slowly* that's easy enough. [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] Good idea Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] M...makes... m...m...more... s...sense, aye. [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] Please, take a look around the Academy [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] might want to stretch your bum muscles a bit [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *whispers to aerill* think i can smoke once she leaves? [GreyLynx] Hilde Meyldur: [Talk] The library is especially interesting. [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] thank you teachers [Cymbolism] E'Hfemie N'Hatalie: [Talk] thank you all for being attentive [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] Well taught.

[Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] You are welcome [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] And yes...seems like a good idea to have a look around. [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] Heh, true [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] Yes, it is the first time we meet, though Thal has told me of you. [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] Perhaps after the second part of the lecture you would have some more time for us to talk? [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] Of course, I would be more than delighted to speak with you. [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] *nods* Excellent, I look forward to it [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] Wouldn't you like to take a look around the academy? [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] Heh. If you can believe it, a lady in Mikona the other day thought I was Master Twostep's newest apprentice! I told her that I was but an Initiate of the Order, though. [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] *nods* Take your time, we will talk more after the second part of the lecture [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] Oh yes, it was Lady Agatha. I forget her last name, although I think it started with a "D". [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] Ahh.. Agatha Dane Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] What would you like to do? Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] Emote Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] Emote: Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] Sit in the nearest Chair Amywienwien Dy'nermashedralle: [Tell] jadri if you are going to the simanar tell them i can't make it a little boy was hit infront of my house and i can't make it i have to talk to the police i was witness [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] She said she was an Equalizer of Mikon though. [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] Yes, I know her [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] A good woman [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] She seems to be. Jadrienne Starfire: [Tell] Don't worry about it, send a PM to kombinat and tell him, ok? [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] Well, I shall take a look around... Amywienwien Dy'nermashedralle: [Tell] thanks if you can let sand know [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] *nods* Amywienwien Dy'nermashedralle: [Tell] ok see you Jadrienne Starfire: [Tell] Bye [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] *stretches a bit* Amywienwien Dy'nermashedralle: [Tell] bye [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *looks to jadrienne* so... ebony huh? Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] *nods* [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] what do you like about that Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] What would you like to do? Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] Emote Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] Emote: Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] Sit in the nearest Chair [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] simon says... sit down Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] W...w...what... d...do... y...you... m...m...mean? [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] *turns to Markovalas* You are an initiate for the Green Order i assume? [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] i mean, what drew you to Ebony [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *listens to conversation* [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *looks at aerill's feet* yes [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] My best freind Effie taught me all about them Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] R...r...read... t...the... b...b...book... y...you... h...have... a...a...about... t...them... a...and... f...f...find... o...out. [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] *nods* Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] I...I...I... l...learnt... t...the... A...a...arcane... a...arts... f...f...from... a...a...a.. s...senior... m...mage... o...of... t...t...the... E...ebony. [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] Yes.. I believe they gave us books with synopsises of all five existing orders [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] so what is the next lecture about [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] Post-Andrinor history Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] P...p...post... A...andrinor... h...history. [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] *turns back* Ahh.. there's Lafreth.. *smiles* [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] Greetings Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] P...p...pelail, L...lafreth. [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] we playin' musical chairs are we? [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] *grins* Hello all. Sorry for the wait. *looks down* [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] Heh. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] I have a nice little circle here, great. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] We better get started [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] I thought we'd just resume with the chairs we had before... [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] *throws a small soft piece of old cloth in the throne and sits on it* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] For all who do not know me, my name is Lafreth your instructor for post-andrinor history today [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *pulls off hood slowly* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] As you may know, the gods have had their time of mortality in this realm - including Andrinor. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] What I will... *sneezes and a little cloak of black powder emits off his robe* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Excuse me... [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] What I will speak of now is the events that lead to the ascension of Andrinor as God of Mortal Magic. [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *lays back in his chair comfortably* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] During his time as a mortal, he was happened across numerous challenges and traveled all throught... *pauses to check his bags* [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] *leans back and crosses his arms* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] throught avlis, *his bag magically seems to collapse* Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] *taps her foot impatiently* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] One of these challenges they faced was this group found out about how valok was trying to enter the prime. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Just a bit of improtant foreshadowing, keep in mind that Andrinor is a Tiefling [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] offspring between a mortal and a cambion. [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] *raises hand* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Hm.. yes? [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Mortavius? [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] Why was Valok trying to enter the Prime? [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] His ways were more than concealed, though I would assume it would be to have direct impact on the world. Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] A...a...a... s...spot... o...of... .f..f...fun, I...i...I... w...would... h...h...hazard... [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] If it is still vague in your mind, you can reach me afterwards [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Back to the topic at hand, this challenge. Theis group of adventuers also found out that valok [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] would be destroying Angadar, or try to [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] as part of a deal struck by a follower of valok and a disgruntled pupil of angadar [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Hearing this the group of adventurers traveled to the relm of Angadar, baator seeking his aid [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Hearing this, Agadar agreed to help them with Valok, [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Although, he knew his power was great, he knew it would not be enough in itself [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] He then proceeded to summon Vanoviel a champian of O'Ma [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] hmm. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] who convinced a planetar of O'ma to conince O'ma, who also agreed. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Meanwhile, Andrinor and Angadar st Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 26, 2004, 09:59:28 PM The best stuff is in this part.
Quote [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Along the way, Andrinor learned a spell on how to break the mental link from powerful beings [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *starts to nod off but catches himself... looks aroudn to see who noitced* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Then ensued the battle with Valok over the prime [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *listens silently* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] You can read up on the details yourself, though the important part is that Valok's forces of fiends were lain to waste [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *nods* [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] harah again! [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] However, this still did not stop Valok, he continued to persue the adventurers [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] It was during this time in Elysium where Andrinor decided to sever his link to Angadar [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] *waves hand dismissivly* Angadar was too busy at the moment to care [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] This is where Andrinor proceeded with the laborious ritual of controling the vortex [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Upon where he became a god, and was pulled to Ysgard [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Where he currently resides [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] *nods to Kiriel* [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Talk] *slips in late, trying not to disturb anyone. [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *remembers kiriel and smiles* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] By this time, the gold was few in number. Jadrienne Starfire: [Tell] Only 2 hours late, nothing serious :S. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Hence the fold of nine was more of a fold of eight. Anyways, that is reather irrelecent. The differnt orders had different reactions to andrinor's new found godhood [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Tell] LOL =) [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] The white lead by Chert decided that andrinor was not the person that should be taking control of the vortex [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Tell] I know, I was dumb. I did 1600 - 6 =... Noon! =) [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] They set out to stop him before he gained complete control Jadrienne Starfire: [Tell] Ouch. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Ebony lead by Cyperian and teh gold lead by reyes joined forces [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *nods* that's it then [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] To make the black order, which they set out to take the vortex for themselves [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] The grey, lead by apara also followed suit. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Knowing if either were succesful, there would be a lack of balance within the world of the arcane arts [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Tell] Yeah. There'll be other classes though. I'll just make up some story about getting lost in the woods or something. =) [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *nods* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Can anyone guess what followed? [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] *smirks* Without looking in the books. [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] destruction? Death? [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] War? [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Talk] Um... lots of blood and dying? Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] A...a...andrinor... d...did... s...something... d...d...decidedly... u...unpleasant. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Yes, war. [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] Of course, Andrinor wouldn't want the Orders taking away his power... [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] The three orders met on the way and proceeded to fight amongst themselves [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] The only thing was that Apara was extremely effective in her purpose [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] The battle lead to a stalemate. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Meanwhile, Andrinor, with the help of Dru'El [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] learned the ways of godhood and gained a firm control of the Vortex of mortal magic [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] The next fifty years is what is offically known as the Dark period [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *nods* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] You can imagine what the three orders did when they figured out that their wasted effort spent fighting among eachother bid Andrinor time [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] They too then went into hiding in fear of andrinor's wrath [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] During this period [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Many of the spellcasters of avlis were alienated [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *chuckles* [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *nods* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] How do you think that affected Andrinor? [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] He lost power Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] M...made... h...h...him... w...weaker. [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] I'd say it weakend aye. [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] Gods depend on their worshipers [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] yes. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Yes, like all gods he needs followers, and without that his power started to dwindle. [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] that'll teach 'im. Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] A...a...a... G...god.. .w...w...without... .f..followers... i...is... n...n...nothing, aye. [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] It displeased him? [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Noticing this, he began to divise a plan. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Enter - the vortex of chaos [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Andrinor mastering his godly powers created this vortex which was a less powerful version of the orginal vortex of mortal magic [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] It was the new source of all arcane on avlis. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] This vortex, as its name points out, brough chaos where ever it went [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Whether it was in terms of natural disasters [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] or portals swarming with fiends, [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *shudders* that must have kept people busy. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] There are even tales of Koblods gaining great magical prowess and others being utterly destroyed on contact. [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Talk] It'd inspire people to pray to him to make it stop... [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Yes, that it did. [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] Seems a little counter-productive to inspire devotion... [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Hm.. well, that is not exactly what happened, Kiriel. Though it can be seen that in the long run. [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *nods in agreement with Mortavius* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] The old order archmages were the first to notice this new vortexes presence [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Talk] *nods thoughtfully* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] This lead to the founding of three new orders [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Chert inspired Melonius to found the ivory order. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] The ivory orders stance on the vortex was that it was seen as a threat, and needed to be destroied. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Apara inspired Belaluldor to found the ashen order. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Whos stance was to study this vortex futher and not make any hasty decisions. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Cyprian the old archmage or the order parted ways with his partner Reyes [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] And infused his ranks half with young mages to reform the ebony [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] As noticed by the insightful gentlmen over there *looks to rory* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] This was very time consuming. The next few years the orders researched the vortex and its chaotic nature. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] And possible containment. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Of course, progress was made and [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] one night in the sanctuary of Mikon in Mikona, Aramil fynn of the Ivory winessed a black mage perfome a ritual [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] This ritual transformed the vortex of Choas into a tangible physical form, he took his chance and used the container in his possesson to make off with it. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Aramil that is. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] This is where the great Chase of the Vortex of Chaos began [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] How many people have heard of it already? Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] *raises hand* [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *Shakes head* [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *raises hand* [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *raises hand slightly* [NamligSirhc] Namlig Sirhc: [Talk] *raises hand* [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Talk] *shakes her head* [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] I've heard of it but it never hurts to refresh one's memory [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] I have. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] *grins* three, not bad. Of course. [Darkness Within Me] Reykath: [Talk] *shakes his head* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] five, very good. I was just seeing how much gets into public circles. [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] Aye, my details are sketchy [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] Yes. I have heard tale of this. [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] I learned of it when I was looking for an order to join [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] I thought it best local lore. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] As you can may understand, with such a powerful thing, [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Aramil saught protection, he met up with his fellow ivory order and allies the Order of Gorethar [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] The inherent properties in the vortex along with the paranoia associated with holding such a powerful item lead him to move around often [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] This came to an end by way of a large mercenary force [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] By that very night fall, [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Damar Ogdem of the ebony order obtained the vortex [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *coughs* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Barely escaping he and the other ebony mages traveled to the temple of Meleki a few days later [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] in Eastern M'Chek. [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *quietly again* Blessed be Maleki. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Here they were to try a ritual to harness the vortex of chaos [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] *frowns slightly at Maleki's mention* [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *fidgets right* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Knowing that the others would try to stop this, meaning Ivory, ashen, and the Order of Gorethar [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Cyperian summoned great legions of fiends to the seen, to battle [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] What did not come to his attention was the sub-plot being drawn out by his own members [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Damar noticed that Cyperian was becoming unstable to the point of madness. He set out to make sure that he did not attain the power of the vortex. [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] hehehe [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] *can not help but grin at the giggling* [Aerill] Aerill Ailpera: [Talk] Fighting for power.. how typical. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] He though surely he could take the vortex for himself. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] *cough* He thought [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] During the climax of the ritual [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Talk] *smiles wryly, murmuring* That's what happens when everyone believes that -their- free will is more important than everyone elses... [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *nods* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] The ebony mages sabotaged the ritual. [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *leans forward in anticipation* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Instead of Cyperian taking hold of the power of the vortex [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] He was utterly destroyed [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Upon which a blinding light came from the skies [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Andrinor himself stood before all that gathered there. [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] Oh my [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] I bet that got their attention... [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *chuckles* [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *listens skeptically* [NamligSirhc] Namlig Sirhc: [Talk] What a sight that must have been. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] In his earth trembling voice, he announced that the power of the vortex had returned to him. That it did, and that it was. *smirks* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Not only did he say this, [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] eh? [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] he also said in turn that he would give it to the mage orders to regulate it as they see fit. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] HIS orders. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] From that day forth, the orders were known as Andrinor's trust [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] All mages within this trust would recieve his mark and his blessings. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Which is what most of you probably wish to join. [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *nods and smiles* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] He did not stop there, he unvailed to him a vision of his [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Talk] *raises a hand* [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *grimaces* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Yes? *looks to Kiriel* [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Talk] Um, what exactly does it mean to regulate the vortex? [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] *grins slightly* Very good questin. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] err... been too long in ferrell. Halfling accent there. Jadrienne Starfire: [Tell] Its nice to hear about PC actions in the terms of a history lesson. [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *smiles* [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] *grins* [Mortavius] Mortavius Tallow: [Talk] *smiles, a little confused* [NamligSirhc] Namlig Sirhc: [Talk] *laughs a bit* Tuld'uor Enlegllen: [Tell] you basically all sitting round a camp fire listening to hippys pla... someone teech? [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Talk] *grins* Jadrienne Starfire: [Tell] Replace 'around a campire' with 'in a damned inpressive auditorium' and yes. [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] Are you saying that tey are the vortices' caretakers? [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] It is not in the way of actually controlling the vortex [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] That is Andrinor's job Tuld'uor Enlegllen: [Tell] heh, i can imagine runnign in there with no helm on *whistles* Jadrienne Starfire: [Tell] *Lafreth Theoalideth casting Unknown Spell* [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Talk] *nods, chuckling* And he showed everyone what it would be like if it -wasn't- his job... Which was extremely clever of him. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Yes and no. Here, let me explain a few more things and i think you will see how I am using that word. [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] yes. [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Talk] *nods, listening attentively* Tuld'uor Enlegllen: [Tell] for some reason lots of people like casting spells AT me [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Back to his vision... [GG26] Markovalas Serin'das: [Talk] *twitches* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] A magedom in the Kurathene empire, his city of the arcane arts. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Novel concept, is it not? [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] sounds good ta me. [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] Aye [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] This magedom would be ruled by the orders by way of a council. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Where the most powerful order would hold the ironically named ~ Seat of Power ~ [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Talk] Ironically? [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Jest. Tuld'uor Enlegllen: [Tell] some xp whoreoing tonight >: [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Anyways, one of the frist orders of business was to create this council [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] *nods* Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] C...c...causing... e...each... O...o...order... t...to... s...s...strive... f...for... s...s...superiority, h...hence... c...c...causing... g...growth... i...in... t...the... M...mage... c...c...community, h...hence... i...increasing... A...a...andrinor's... p...power. C...cute. [PlasmaJohn] Rory Olaveil: [Talk] Oh good point [Crestu] Spit: [Talk] *stares at Jadrienne* [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] At the time, the orders were in turmoil with the orther orders... *listens* Jadrienne Starfire: [Tell] I keep getting cookied for saying stuff. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Yes. Um,... cute. [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] no, wise... [Marrowroot] Marrowroot: [Talk] wize of him. Jadrienne Starfire: [Talk] *coughs quietly* D...do... c...c...continue... [Jeanette] Kiriel Danel: [Talk] *grins at Jadri* Oh yes... It sounds like Andrinor certainly knows what he's doing. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] *chuckles under his breath* We now sit in the fruits of the combined orders labor [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] One more point that is of importance of what Andrinor said on the hill. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] Everyone wondered why he had done so, you all pretty much figured it out already. [Vipact] Lafreth Theoalideth: [Talk] *slight smirk* Smart group. He announced it was for his personal amusement and power gain.

Mightiest am I, but I am not alone in this cosmos of mine, For the black hills consist of black souls, Souls that already died one thousand deaths, Behind the stone walls of centuries they breed their black art.

You dont actually fight a single badguy on the way there, which is very interesting. Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: RipperRoo on June 30, 2004, 07:37:45 PM The first 3 images are of the same spot, notice the tit-shaped rocks in the background.
It was around hour 6, so I managed to get a night, dawn and day pic from it. The last one is from the same hilltop, but angled towards the rock staircase, which does a good job of blending in if you dont know its there. By the way, catch me quickly and I'll flog you Chris' items! He kinda went on further and got mobbed by Lizardfolk Elites, poor git... So I downed 3 Invis potions and nabbed his items. :P Highest bid gets them. Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on June 30, 2004, 07:41:34 PM 5k gold and a week with Nadir.

No matter how much I read of the CvC forums, nobody seems to agree on much. I'm doing my best to not ruin anyone's fun. Tonight was absolutlely insane... Just remember the basics of Avlis CvC: Looting is allowed except for when it happens to me. If Bob is in disguise but he didn't change his boots he's still Bob, or at least someone with Bob's boots. Leave the crafters out of it, except when they're evil, which they all are. No cutting out of tongues without express written consent of the owner. Setting dislike is the defender's perogative, he should just press the pause key and set it so you don't kill him first. If it's a black elf and not a Sereg it doesn't really exist, but you're obligated to kill it. Then everyone will yell at you for something that didn't actually happen, because it didn't really exist. See, it's not that complicated. ahahaha classy :thumbs-up: Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on July 18, 2004, 10:24:15 AM Quote if you ever find an item that allows you to cvast or gives you immunity to mind spells ill buy it I have a staff that does Protection from Alignment.

Battlemaster Kharak Hammerstar has tasked me with offering you the assistance of the Order of Gorethar regarding the Mikona wraith. He has also instructed me to seek you and and to learn all I can from you about this wraith. Perhaps you would write to me at the Gorethar Chaplet ((PM)) or we could arrange a time to meet in Mikona? ((I am online mostly sometime between GMT 0300 and GMT 1500, although if need be I could potentially be online at any time)) I look forward to hearing from you. May Gorethar watch over you. Zahn Reyer Aspirant of the Order of Gorethar This is a Dagathite issue, and will remain firmly in our hands. If they try to force the issue, would it be possible for Sister Hylia to push through the purchase of the Crypt, so we can have the backing of the Sword in keeping the Paladins off of Church property. Jadrienne. OOC- No. All the OoG do is muscle in on things, and I'm determined that this plot will remain FIRMLY in the hands of the Church of Dagath.

Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: SS on July 26, 2004, 08:49:16 PM I've got a vague memory I had something like that in single player NWN, against a dazed monster, though only for a few hits. I assumed it was because they weren't able to identify where the attack came from in their state and so it kept counting as a Sneak Attack, but I dunno if that's true or just a coincidental explanation...
Can't see why concealment would have that effect though. :/ Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: mole on July 26, 2004, 09:02:06 PM ...no my confusion was as to why i wasnt hitting him, i know why he was concealed and was loving the every shot sneak attacks
Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: RipperRoo on July 26, 2004, 09:07:53 PM Because you rolled high to hit, then shit low for the Concealment test, it happens.

Quote *written in a precice flowing script* Citizens, It is with warm regards I greet you and enjoy the comforting scenery of the capitol of the spirit land. Sadly we do not live in a present where simple enjoyment of beauty is sufficient activity. War and seperation of brilliant minds compounds the bitter fruits of ignorance we eat with every grim day these blights infect our lives. In an effort to heal these wrongs I ask any be they citizen, solider or seated politician to begin considering having a discussion with the peers of your nation's enemies. This will be in neutral territory and should be balanced to attending membership and oratory capacity to preserve the singular most important element of any pursuit of peace, a sense of fairness. Furthermore, while the organization I am blessed to be part of has only a facility within Mikona I wish to impart a sense of fairness from us as well. If there are misgivings or concerns bring them to us so that we may find a solution. Obviously the most equitable conditions attainable must be acquired for any debate to be seen as meaningful to both sides. Sincerely, Tia Xiloscia Acting Master Sage Avlis Tower University, Mikona Quote The elves have only one humble request, that perhaps you can convey to the invading nation -- Get the fuck out of our forest. *not signed* :hehe: Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: Rug on July 31, 2004, 10:33:07 AM OCly, I know thats Valendel Cy'svarilo - whos one of the highest ranking members in the Hands of Dru'el, and will be one of the first PC Avengers of Dru'el.

This is so true: Quote A member of the Nighthawk company heads back to the barracks after an exhausting eighteen hours in the front. He smiles as thoughts of a warm bed percolate through his mind. The soldier sighs with relief as he turns the doorknob to the barracks, then angrily shouts, "What the fuck? Who put a lock on this thing?" The sound of the futile pounding of mail on wood echoes throughout the courtyard of the Keep. Alpha Corps are *still* waiting for keys to their barracks :/. Title: NWN/Avlis Post by: mole on October 09, 2004, 01:01:52 PM ahahaha, ive been in some of the barracks the locks are so pitiful ( i know alpha corps will have better blah)
