Ok yeah like a rp in a rp kinda thing I get it yes. They interact with others in their own region.
I can do some character creation, however the question for me is how much I can produce in a short amount of time.
Offline
@Specter - I meant mini-world less in a technical sense, just basically a part of the world where no one else in the roleplay is really involved in (for the time being) that the Thaohals and their services are related to. I mean as long as a part of the world isn't destined to interact (due to being featured in a public thread probably) or trying to murder the gods, it seems to be left well alone for most of the time. That's the kind of place I'm trying to refer to.
Thus, I dunno if you meant the first option in a literal way, but a country could work, as could a city, nationstate, or just about anything that doesn't attract attention.
The problem with this though is that it seems to take a lot of energy to create, so I'm guessing this said mini-world is more than just a place to farm EXP for the Thaohals.
@Time - Yep! Or just within their "jurisdiction," I suppose.
I don't think we need to create many characters. I personally am guessing it mostly involves NPCs and a few major characters plus good narrating (which I don't have), so hopefully you guys can take up the slack on my end :-)

I see.
Instead of being a set country then, it could be like an unspecified area anddd the TMG could have some control over it. Like, idk but I'd think that by getting jobs from an area they would gain recognition at least there.
It also would fulfill the condiion of not interferig with deities :D
Well, maybe we can do more with the place then! Time to think Ig xD though Ig it'll be easier to think more about what it can be used for once we've developed at least a bit more.
Bruh EXP makes it sound like a sort of game or something but it kinda is like that, right? I mean, character development and stuff xD.
We don't need to create it from morning to night, @Time! Let's take our time instead xD and hope it will be better that way.
Idk how much I can contribute for "good narrating" but I'll try my best Ig xD.
Lowkey worried about what effect this would have on Martin but still, interesting owo.

Do you think they'd try to take over the original location they had power over
Offline
Idk maybe? Maybe that place is the one we're mentioning?
Thing is, idk how long it has been since their death xD. Wouldn't it be strange if they go back there and most people notice they've been resurrected?
Or if more more more time has passed, then maybe they're like a rumor or something and yay they back.
Offline
I think maybe long enough that they were forgotten about...?
How about they carve their way into their prime location from their ruined fort place?
Or maybe they just start anew?
Offline
I have some pretty good ideas for the place imo but I'll have to find a time to confirm them with myself and then more time to synthesize it into one post. But for your concerns for Martin, @Specter guess you'll have to deal with it since you mentioned character dev .
I feel like specifying the area is actually a good idea though. Maybe we'll do more development with it if it's named? idk, maybe I'm just lazy xD
Actually, what jobs do the Thaohals take? Just any job related to magic fighting that gives 'em money?

Alright, understood.
Honestly Martin's fate is probably going to be up to me anyways lol let's see what happens.
Idk, what or how would we name it? I mean, first we need to know what kinda area it is, right?
I think so lol idk. @Time please can you answer the question owo
Also we need Eliza's input here xD

I mean, they're mercs, they do whatever they think they can be best used in. I would say they have a wide variety. Of course, they do combat stuff like guarding, assassination, and just normal combat. But I wouldn't be surprised to see them idk... being detectives or something like that, the more inquisitively specialized ones, that is.
Offline
Mercs sounds like a board game or something
Btw how does one even say "mercs" when the "c" in "mercenary" is a soft c
Merssssss or merses?
Anyways that's cool uwu also kinda what I had in mind but I didn't think of the detective thing really.

I say it with a hard c so I would say neither
Yeah I just randomly thought of the investigative thing. I would say just anything that they can apply their skills to and not look stupid or something.
I say "not look stupid" because I remember in the first draft that I said they held parties. And I'm just thinking of a Thaohal just at a kids birthday party doing little sparkles

LITTLE SPARKLES FJIODSJFOSD THEY'RE JUST SAFE FIREWORKS SERVICE
Lol Kiaane just unintentionally scaring all the little kids

DAMAGE OR DISAPPEARANCE OF CHILDREN

Also lol is that all you're gonna say

"Mercks" is how I pronounce the word.
Tbh xD I'd think the Thaohals would worry about any damage to property, because it might cause them to get less pay.
Btw I've been wondering if they're the kind of organization that would mess up something or a place on purpose and then offer their "repair" services? Idk if that makes sense.
Lol Thaohal parties must be very fun then xD lots of magic sparkles and stuff.

I would say no. For the destruction of property thing. Or at least the higher-ups try to promote it as much as possible and only if it can't be avoided.
Though I would say if they ended up damaging property, they would try to first avoid it before giving like a discount on the payment or whatever. Saying something like, "You said you wanted the job done, not that you wanted the building to be left in pristine condition."
However, if the contractor did say that they wanted a job done with no damage and quietly or something, they would probably try to do something in rebuilding stuff if things went wrong.
But of course, they'll say when things are impossible to guarantee and decline/bargain for contract conditions. Like a loud mission with no property damage or something.
If that makes sense

That's all I'm gonna say

On the note of it I wouldn't think kidnapping would be out of the Thaohal's paid services.

So should I take that as Eliza's not planning to participate in the plot or...? I mean it'd make sense since Ryoo's not part of the TMG anymore, just weird because that means by planning for that here we'd be spamming :D
Btw lol sorry for Not-NPC still not existing. Haven't had the time or motivation for forms lol

I mean it'd be a pretty good opportunity for her to make characters related to the actual TMG
Eliza are you taking up this chance? :3
It'd be fine if you don't, anyways, since it's your choice.
Worry not, not-NPC exists in our hearts.

Wait is Ryoo even alive atm I've only seen her in past threads
Offline
Ryoo is currently dead because Eliza never said she wanted Ryoo to be alive rn
Kiaane's not procrastinating though xD

Ok cool I hopefully didn't miss any threads then. Are they all on board host rn? Just wanting to make sure if I can recheck them.
Offline
I think there's only been one thread with Ryoo in it (past thread) on Wikia, and otherwise Thaohal threads excluding Kiaan have been on there as well. Kiaane threads are on Boardhost
If that's what you mean xD
