Title: Katherian Quest
Post by: Aerimor on August 20, 2012, 03:58:33 pm
Anyone interested in a quest line to take place in Katherian.  It would be easier treaded by non-good alignments, but open to whomever.  Its focus would be on political espionage, cloak and dagger, power and prestige type pursuits.

It would likely be a bi-weekly quest line, with as much taking place between sessions as during them.  In fact the session at some point may wait until prompting by character actions.

I imagine it would involve 1-4 groups of PC's working together or in opposition to some degree in the same city of politics.   Each attempting to makes gains for themselves and their 'faction'

So the question is, who is interested in such a quest line and has a character appropriate for such pursuits?  Feel free to also mention when you'd most favor the quest line run, weekdays/weekends  EST morning/afternoon/evening?

Thanks for reading

I am interested, but I can only do GMT evenings during weekdays and weekends are kind of wonky for me.

Almost sounds like something that could be fun for Jetta to take part in.
 
My availability is probably most open on weeknights after 6:30pm Central Time.  I could also probably do weekends after 8:30am Central Time til about 10:00pm Central Time.

I take you are speaking of actual characters, not a brand new made for this one rigth ?

Make a new one if you want.  I just meant, if you only have a Paladin of Vorax and bring him on this quest line, I am pretty sure you either will not enjoy it and/or your paladinship will be at definite risk.

K.

You answered already, but the question was more about the lines of if we had to do a character for this quest alone, as in an exclusive character for the quest.

Thanks

Would there be any need of a fresh new mercenary in this quest?

If so the Alexander might possibly be "persuaded" to join one of these groups. *Holds up a hand, rubbing his thumb and first two fingers together*

Time available: about 11 am - 3 pm EDT

Got any date/time set up for this yet? don't see it on GM or Player event calendar yet.
Title: Re: Katherian Quest
Post by: Lance Stargazer on August 23, 2012, 10:44:25 am
@Drakogear

Its my understanding that the idea first is to see what the intrest for such series would be, why the timezones are being told ,so they can acomodate enough people ( granted enough intrest  its gathered )

Lance is correct. Trying to gauge interest and pick an appropriate running time.

Post by: Maestro3P on August 23, 2012, 02:33:32 pm
I am interested in joining a DM run event. Since all other events require me to be awake at 2:00 AM or later, I will join this one if the time is right :) I'd have to create a new character though, cause my current ones are both good-aligned.

Playing times: evenings GMT+1 and weekends.

EDIT: Sorry, that sounded awful. I'm looking forward to join this event :)

I am interested in having some fun with this quest-line. I am in the PST time zone i believe its GMT -7. weekends works best for me. 8 pm EST is worst for me. just walking in the door to family, supper, and whatever crazy is waiting for me.

I would like to use Argus if i may i don't mind a little alignment shift toward neutral if that has to happen.

where is Katherian?
Title: Re: Katherian Quest
Post by: Lance Stargazer on August 27, 2012, 07:44:11 pm
For reference

This may be able to help you out and for the rest of the ones who doesn't get where is getting into.

[LORE]Katherian[/LORE]

[LORE]Alindor[/LORE]

Katherian is on Alindor, you may be able to reach over from Mariner's Hold or from Fort of Kings. There is also a way to reach from Lor in Central.

Okay, this has fallen into my Thursday (this Thursday, even) time slot, while P&P is on hiatus. That being the case, those of you that are still interested in this concept, please post below with the following information:

Character Name:
Character Alignment:
Character Deity (if any):
Character Level:
Character experience and/or relationships with the Katherian houses (if any):
Any significant conflicts with consistent quest attendance/participation:

We may cap the number of participants on this bi-weekly series, but we'll review the interest first. Remember, as explained in the first post by Aerimor, this is the sort of quest series that explores the underbelly of a non-good society, so if you plan to bring a good-aligned character into the mix, be prepared for the character to struggle greatly and possibly even be persecuted for his/her beliefs.

Just for clarity, this series in bi-weekly, and is occurring during my 'normal' Thursday time slot (the same slot in which Master and I run P&P). This slot is from 8pm-11pm EST/12am-3am GMT. I know, not the most friendly time for our Euro and Aussie folks, but alas, it is the only time I can run quests right now.
Title: Re: Katherian Quest
Post by: Lance Stargazer on December 05, 2012, 11:20:58 am
Again depending on situation . I may be able to attend?  Yet have one question.. Is this still intended to be run in a faction-like form?.
Title: Re: Katherian Quest
Post by: miltonyorkcastle on December 05, 2012, 12:03:08 pm
Yes. Groups will attach themselves to a house, more or less, and thus each house becomes its own faction.

Character Name: Nym'roos Claddana

Character Alignment: NE

Character Deity (if any):Baraeon Ca'Duz

Character Level:23

Character experience and/or relationships with the Katherian houses (if any): Nada

Any significant conflicts with consistent quest attendance/participation: Cant do this week or next, at Uni and NWN is totally corrupted. After that its Xmas break and I can attend if it runs most likely. After that timetables for exam change everything and likewise, after THAT its Semester Two so it all depends on whats what. The time isnt great either so if I have a rough day and tired I porbably wont stay for the whole thing if I were able to attend

Character Name: Ember Beau
 Character Alignment:  Chaotic Neutral
 Character Deity (if any):  Xeen
 Character Level: Umm... I think 8 or maybe 6 but not 9 yet... (who needs levels anyway?)
 Character experience and/or relationships with the Katherian houses (if any): Devout follower (cleric) with some small history of deeds for the church (Pan and Carillion quests)
 Any significant conflicts with consistent quest attendance/participation: personal schedule is just kind of rough, no times or dates will be better than any other. I will at least be able to keep in touch about the schedule. Just throwing my hat in as a possibility. Would really like to participate.
