Vivora grinned, obviously not in the least bit frightened. "You know, I wonder what it's like to be dead..." she thought aloud absently. "Anyway, I'm pleased that we can join you. Where are you going next, so I can let my friends know and meet you there?"
"Well, unless my friends disagree, I hope we're heading out to see what's happened to the Earl. It's been a while since anyone has heard from him. I just hope we're not too late, since we protected the caravan instead. Come, I'll introduce you to the others. My name's Ryorst."
"Well met, and thank you. I'd gladly like to meet the others of your group and I hope my new friends will join as well." Vivora said, as she followed Ryorst. "What do you suppose may have happened to the Earl? I too hope he is well, and that it is not too late."
Uncharacteristically, Vivora was suddenly saddened, but it only lasted a few moments. Her smile was soon back, but the bounce in her step was more subdued.
Ooc -Uthet looks at Viv the lil kinder with a eyebrow raised at her comment ,"whats it like to be dead"( then remembered old stories of foolish kinders running into harms way but setting off all the traps so the main group of comrades go forward)
ic I'm game at anything we do I know I could learn a few tactics of you big warriors
OOC: So, for all those who don't read the party leader thread.
What route are we taking to go to the Earl's? What is the marching order? Who all is included in the party? Are we on foot, or on horseback?
My personal recommendation, which is not set in stone, is to head in a straight line for the Earl's, on foot. Single file, through the forest. Ryorst taking point, with his high move speed, Oliron taking the vanguard position at the rear. Eth at the back directly in front of Oliron, if Eth's player is still active. The best melee fighter of the new joiners imediately behind Ryorst, with Nei behind them, if their players are active. The rest of the new players will be between Nei and Eth, casters by Nei, martial classes by Eth.
Ryorst
Melee
Nei
New Casters
New Martials
Eth
Oliron
We'd have to leave the horses and other bulky items, like the chests, in the town's safekeeping. Perhaps anyone who isn't active at this point, their characters stay behind and guard our belongings while we do this. This means you take only what you can carry with you.
There are other options, probably better options even. This is just my idea.
