Forgot to tell you guys, both your posts had me lol'ing. Good stuff.

In reply to Xuan Tien John Wu (msg # 565):

I updated the post that came from Xuan. To pink to avoid confusion. This post was not from brandon

In reply to Seeker of Truth (msg # 566):

I'm pretty sure I don't understand

I could use a little clarification too.  At first I assumed it was Poseidon or whoever that's lurking in Xuan but now I'm wondering if Aeviternus can hear it too.  Was it spoke out loud?

In reply to Aeviternus (msg # 568):

Updated the post again.  Sorry for the confusion.

You notice that Tiengue, doesn't really look Chinese, much more of a mix, Chinese and Russian? His skin also seems to be different, not that he's been cleaned up a bit and not trying to kill you. His chin or rather the chisels of his features are rock like, and his hair seems to blow and move like tall stalked grass, or reeds.

There is a chance for you to roll some skill checks if you choose to help with the post, or not.  go a head and post the rolls in the ooc thread.

20:26, Today: Aeviternus rolled 84 using 1d100.  History/Culture (European/Middle East/Chinese).  (92)
20:26, Today: Aeviternus rolled 51 using 1d100.  Lore Arcane.  (43)
20:26, Today: Aeviternus rolled 84 using 1d100.  Lore, Cults/Secret Societies.  (41)
20:26, Today: Aeviternus rolled 45 using 1d100.  Knowledge, Religion/Theology.  (55)

History/Culture to place his lineage; Arcane and Cults to put pieces together (details) about why they want me for host duties, Religion for what they want with Xuan.

In reply to Aeviternus (msg # 571):

After Tiengue said what he said, it pretty much throws you a curve ball with his origin/ethnicity.  after your roll you put his lineage somewhere close to the ottoman/turk/Palestinian or Very Egyptian/northern african circa 1000BC. You feel that further study inside a museum would probably be necessary to analyze anything further.  You need reference material at this point.

As for you and Xuan, not a clue. Bad role, and of course, the story line hinges on this info being found out. Its a little hard to figure out with any amount of knowledge you would have accumulated.

I tried answering your other questions within my posts.

The "In reply to..." headers might be throwing me off a little.  In this case, Tiengue has two separate responses with the first one appearing to be a reply to msg #67, then the second more to Xuan's questions.

Is the first reply in the wrong location for the thread, is he doubling back to a previous line of questions without notice like a crazy person or is this just a weird posting hiccup?

sorry for the confusion. I merely hit reply from Aeviternus as I was thinking about your question regarding Eden. I should or could have just hit post.

The second post was directly towards Xuan.

Sweet, thanks for the clarification!

waiting for xuan to describe his action

Evade crisis averted.

It is either one of your turns. All is stopped without issue. What would you like to do.

Appreciate the reminder, had lost track.

In reply to Aeviternus (msg # 579):

the fire is about 50 meters/yards or so directly in your path. By all estimation, the campfire is about where you were heading, or at least as close to as you can tell Ace.  Not a coincidence it is here. Tiengue is missing, no sign of him, and I mean sign as in tracking sign. I have made some secret rolls for you guys, and I'm giving you information based on rolls.

I pause here for you to come up with a plan at this point. Use in character dialogue to work on a plan, use skills, use imagination, use powers.

The jungle is less dense through here, there are places where you could sneak in for sure, if you weren't being watched already, mwahaha.  Who knows.

This part of the jungle is lush not showing any signs of deterioration or decay.

Are you guys going to post?

Yep, good call. All posty now.

Had the inclination to keep typing and include more dialogue, but then thought that I'd give Ace the chance to respond before I did that, so we could get a little more back-and-forth.

Forgot to post rolls. They are now recently edited in.

all good. post at will.  I would like to place a sense of urgency upon you now.

Are we still on terminal hiatus?

In reply to Aeviternus (msg # 585):

I wouldn’t say terminal, that is so final.  I’m not ready to start back up yet. Writing wise and wanting to move forward yes. But like I just did in your game I need to go and read back on some of my notes.

Just a post to keep everything active. Nothing to see here.

Post e post
