    It's completely up to you. You can start straight off Mission Three. Just have a guy walking through a dark forest, meet up with a few bandits, find some cold, the whole nine yards. :)

    Just like Wolpertings :p Ignore that, I doubt anyone knows what that is. Phooey.

    Kratos, very interesting character :D He almost seems like he could be an antagonist in the story with the whole consuming mind thing.

    Adding: I posted that in the wrong board )= Now I'm embarrassed xD thank youuu Charisma for noticing :love: ./flees in embarrassment

    Thanks, I was trying to go for the whole "is he good or bad" thing. And, no I don't know what Wolpertings is...

    ./all alooonne on the knowledge of a Wolperting

    It's from the world of Zamonia, a series of books written by Walter Moers, almost children's books :p Wolpertings are like dogs, basically but they have small little horns on their head and they can walk upright.

    Well, you definitely did a good job on portraying that :p

    In my imagination. Not always a good thing...
    I agree with bick. kratos, your character has a very interesting twist to him. =) I can't wait to see what happens.

    You can start anywhere you want to on the Continent, but start alone. :) Don't meet up with anyone yet. Mission Four will allow that. Out of mission three, find three of the fifteen that would best work for you.

    Nope :) Your mission is to only complete 3 of the 15 listed. The stuff before was a reference of what was to come.

    Complete Three of the following Fifteen:

    • A chase.
    • Your character witnesses an event that causes them to doubt their beliefs
    • Your character must do something that seems like certain death in order to prove him or herself worthy of something.

    Mission Four: The Arrival


    For those that have completely finished Mission Three.

    If you have not, complete the above, behind the spoiler.

    This is going to take a lot of communication. That’s the biggest challenge. I was going to do something so hard, so extreme, so….amazing! – but I decided we weren’t ready for that.

    Find a partner. You are going to need to talk to them a lot and find a way to make you both meet without any plot holes.

    NO MEETING WITH ANYONE THAT HAS A PARTNER ALREADY.

    PARTNER IN TWOS.

    Word Limit:

    Maximum – 2500
    Minimum – 400 words

    For those that have partners, you have to do the following:

    There is a case of mistaken identity.
    Your character has a quarrel with someone else.
    One character rescues another.
    Someone’s pride has been injured.
    The group or your character finds something they're looking for.

    Word Limit
    Maximum – 2500
    Minimum - 400

    No! DDDDD: I can't even start mission 3 until Ferrety gets on =( .

    We have to do all of those things? But what if we have partners and said we would meet up with someone all ready?

    Anything I have said before Mission Four is still valid. If I gave you permission to meet up with another character, than you may still meet up with them. I highly recommend that if you are doing so, those five could easily be attacking the person you accidentally are meeting up with, in fear that they might be someone else. No deaths, please. Well...okay...maybe one. :p
