Vitiate Okay so the whole shards thing.. How do they find out about them, I believe was brought up. Well, considering the shards are all-over the world, supposedly, perhaps at the summit, it is noticed that a shard being carried by one of the regional lords, is near identical and able to interlock with a shard from another regional lords possession. Then it hits them,maybe there's more? Since the shards have magical properties, associated with Darkfell, there's the incentive to gradually "push" towards Darkfell, in hopes of answers as to what sort of artifact they are dealing with. I'm also fine with one of the shards being present in Terra Mortuis. Maybe I could do more with Terra Mortuis' story too.. Not sure.. I haven't had time to go to my constructive thinking zone lately today. Tis been a pretty crap day for me so far sad But this isn't about me, it about the shards. So, there's my idea anyhow.

Sadakat I don't mean any offense when I say this, but it's necessary I explain it now or this thread won't have any movement. If you've meant to say exactly what you said, then you've meant to tell us that you like the idea but you don't like where it's going, you don't like its endgame, you don't like how we plan to carry it out, you don't think it's possible, and you don't like anything providing impediment to the Darklands. I might be the one at fault here, and I sincerely apologize if I am. To find out if I am, I hope you don't mind me asking what makes you like the idea. While reading this over, the thread I mean, you are a bit misguided as to what I think she means. She stated that she was fine with your idea of finding the shards, just not with your plan to automatically locate them and navigate the Darklands on a whim. The way you want to carry out your plan is silly if you don't take in account all the things that stop it from being executed the way you want it to instead how it ought to. Your plan is child-like really compared to how the Darklands are set up. I'm sure she does want you to get into the Darklands. The roleplay would kinda suck if you didn't, eventually. She however, doesn't want you to conquer the Darklands through Ju Ju baby magic. By that I mean, going BAM, JOURNEY TA FIND DA SHARDS!!11 YAY!!!11. There are a lot of routes/ways you can take to find the shards without ignoring the way the Darklands set up. You just aren't looking for them. (I would tell you them but my character is not on your side and I don't want to step out of my bounds with that one.) Part of roleplaying involves using your head to outwit (and outwrite) your enemy. You have to look for loopholes or come up with an idea for accomplishing your task of taking over Darkfall using your head. Vitiate just came up with a great and reasonable idea. c: Wasn't that hard. Vitiate, you should definitely use that. That was a good one. smile Now we're cooking with gas.

Vitiate is very stupid, she only comes up with a few ideas per day. Of which only one or two are actually decent. :p
I'm trying to help though.. Somehow..

Thank you Frey.. Encouragement helps.. I have.. problems..
Of course, for my idea to work, the summit would actually have to happen.. So.. other regional leaders.. Get in a circle and hold hands.. That means actually RP'ing, not disappearing for days at a time, like a certain someone I know who shall remain nameless. whee

Thanks for the last few posts, this was all a result of a big misunderstanding. There wasn't actually a disagreement over this, we came to this conclusion on page 2 before getting carried off into a debate about the meaning of realism realism and a couple of shallow posts after that. I apologize for my part in derailing this.
I think we've actually had the same idea for a while, tracking the energy signatures. To clarify my side, I wasn't going to abra-cadabra all the shards into the Crownlands, just conceive a method to navigate towards them and vaguely track their energy signatures.
Again, sorry for misreading and I hope there haven't been any hard feelings.

Oh, its fine. As I mentioned earlier, I get easily offended, so if I went off on a limb ... disregard it. emotion_awesome
So, I apologize if my posts came off as snooty. I'm sure everyone agrees that we all want a good roleplay, etc etc. We'll work through it and get through the kinks.

Alright as a way to put us exactly on the right path with the guild story. I am going to post a plot summary right here. This summary will state the overall goal and some basic information on how it will be perceived no in-detail information will be given. I would like everyone's input on the idea alone and it's playthrough no more it's won't work like that or it will. Alrighty. mrgreen

The Story of the shards
During the summit the leaders of the Ghostland and Darkfall will appear. During which some sort of disagreement of alliance will be made and enemies will be made clear.(Open war will not start though) During which or soon after someone will make a reference to the Orb shards and how they are linked to Darkfall and the Dark Queen. Using the resources of the Light Coalition(The lands of light). A group will be formed whose job is to hunt down down and secure as many shards of the crystal as possible. The task will take time and will rely heavily on the information gathered from many sources. However the end game will be to gather all the shards but the one around the Dark Queen and somehow use the power of the available shards to gain entrance and attack and take her shard. Whether it involves disposing or banishing the Dark Queen is optional.

sounds like a legit plot that every came up with earlier, easily. So I really don't understand what all the fighting earlier was about anyways. I wish I could add more to this, but you guys are moving way too fast for me, and I got other things that I need to take care of.

Alright so now that is offical what the main quest for the Light Coalition(the Crownland and their allies) will be doing. Anyone think we should come up with a quest for the Dark Coalition(Darkfall and their allies). We don't have to but I always think it's stupid that in like every story the bad guys are always on the defensive and never plotting things of destruction of their own to go on the offensive other than hoarding some doomsday weapon or giant army they never use.
So figured we could talk about what the people who aren't leaders on the bad guys side could be doing. Or do we want to send them after shards too. You know do a race to retrieve them sorta thing. Though that seems sorta unfair since the Dark Queen knows where they all are and how they are protected. But it is a thought.
