My RPG has been going for over a year but at present is short of members. A few of you wanted to join about five weeks back but a combination of work, vacation and illness has kept me from giving enough attention. I apologise for that but I am back in the saddle now.

The RPG is at a point where new members could join if they wanted to. However, be advised, it is NOT set in Oblivion but in a world of my own invention. There are none of the races of Oblivion, so some initial PMs about character etc will be necessary before you can join in.

Please do not join unless you can post regularly.

The story so far. A strange magical attack is affecting the land of Bashkher. In and around the southern swamps of OOO the old people are turning to stone. The solution to the problem (you have been told) will be in the ability to replace the broken tip of a sword. This is not just any sword but one made by the long dead Master of Zooz. When you started, all you knew was that five swords existed, all in Bashkheri museums. You later discovered there were certainly 8 and possibly 9.

This is the current situation -

You have three swords and two other (museum) swords are being held for you. Not one is missing a tip. A sixth sword is in the museum in Ippikander, well guarded and if you want it, will have to be stolen. The seventh sword was lost at sea off the coast of the city of Golcanar and the eighth last heard of in the ruined city of Akitaron in the middle of the Shorava desert.

One thing you have discovered. If the swords are placed close to each other, they move slowly until the tips are touching and pointing towards each other.

For this reason you believe you may need all eight known swords.

To be able to search beneath the ocean for sword seven you need a spell to breathe underwater. You have found someone who can teach you this spell but she is frozen in stasis and must be healed first. Only one person has the power to do this Auriel, The Child of Healing. You believe you have located the whereabouts of this child but you have been warned about trying to locate him.

So the adventurers must now decide which sword they are going after next. They can visit the Shorava desert and search through the ruins of Akitaron. They may return to Ippikander to steal the sword in the museum or they may go and find out if the Child of Healing is where they think he is (to be able to seach for the sword lost at sea).

That decision is waiting an answer in the thread atm.

Anyone who would like to join in please PM me or post here. DO not post in the RPG thread.

There are other side issues in the existing thread but for the present I wish to concentrate on the swords.

umm... I would like to play and I can post regular enough to participate (I guess... 6 days a week and 8 hours a day)

Okay macmert, I'll leave this up for another two days and the PM everone who contacts me with info necessary for you to make a character.

Cheers

Malchik, i will join as soon as I get back from Australia. Is that alright mate?

I have no problem with that.

Okay we have three new members which makes it viable. I am working in PM on sorting out characters etc. I wll start the new people on Monday 14th July. Still time for others if they wish.

Is there still time for me to join? This RP looks cool. If i could join I think I would like to be a Shallaran.
