Daemos Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 Ok, Daemos here, aka Arturios the sage... Well this is the new discussion thread for the RP "Kaydaeryn" for those of you who are in the RP this is an OOC only zone. first off let me go over some basics to get things cleared up in case their is any confusion 1. Voidstone: this material is attuned to the Shadow plane, giving it the unique ability to provide the imediate area around it protection from the world altering Wraithwind. It is mined from the aptly although uncreatively named Windbreaker Peak 2. Wraithbeasts: creatures born from the wraith wind itself, they are nightmares made real. not all the creatures you may encounter will be wraithbeasts 3. ShadowDemon: a minion of Baaloth Karrh, capable of creating wraithbeast hordes. they are suseptable to the light of the sun, or the flame of a sunrod 4. Shadow-Kai: Baaloth's elite servents these creatures can actually control the wraithwind, making them almost imposible to dispatch without the aid of the Sinhar. NOTE: never try to imply a battle with the shadow-kai with out my consent as GM, it will result in the death of your character, you have been warned 5. Sinhar: the council of Psions who ages ago sealed Baaloth Karrh in the prison that would later become the portal through wich the wraithwind blows... it is headed by an Ilithid know as Malthura 6. Ilithid: a race of humanoids not native to Kaydaeryn, Baaloth Kaarh was one of them before he arived on Kaydaeryn, he was quickly followed by thoses who had hunted him, the Ilithid have heads that resemble a squid, with four grasping tentacles in the place of a mouth... the Sinhar Council are good Ilithid who arived to seal away the rouge Baaloth... that seal failed. Arturios Recieved a message from Phaelos, an Ilithid who runs the mines at Windbreaker (he is not a member of the Sinhar, but one of their followers) 7. Naturals: creatures (some of them quite deadly) who are not waithbeasts... the Cartiopter are an example. ok now that thats done I declare this thread open for discussion *trumpets sound* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2010DigitalBoy Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 I get it, I was hoping youd do something like this so we could all be on the same page. I was a little confused as to where we were headed, so I threw the ogre in there. Sorry if it took you by surprise! :sweat: anyway, after that battle are we going to that windbreaker place?

Daemos Posted October 13, 2004 Author Share Posted October 13, 2004 well you're still at least a weeks journey from windbreaker IF all goes well... but yes other than that, that is the next destination, after that its the Wrairthstorm Canyons... and a confrontation with the Shadow-Kai...

Cambrian_Explosion Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 First of all, sorry I haven't posted in a long time. My family went to Maine (spitting distance from the Canadian border) to visit some friends we haven't seen in a long time. As luck would have it, they didn't have an internet connection :cussing:. If I'd known beforehand, I would've given notice. Thanks ThatOneOddDude for including my character (Reaf) in the battle against the ogre. Taking over the watch was a nice touch, too. If anyone wants to include my character's reason for missing most of the battle, he is a very heavy sleeper, and only woke up when something (or someone) was thrown on top of him by the ogre. I'll post as soon as I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2010DigitalBoy Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 Hey, Daemos... when you told all the chars. to split up... you didnt tell me where ta go, am I with you or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daemos Posted October 16, 2004 Author Share Posted October 16, 2004 [quote name='ThatOneOddDude']Hey, Daemos... when you told all the chars. to split up... you didnt tell me where ta go, am I with you or what?[/quote] er... thats a good question... anyone who wasn't told to do something is still with arturios... and the strangely friendly dragon hatchling here is an update of the factlist to keep you up to speed 8. Symbiote: Ithilids as most of Kaydaeryn know them are actually the result of the implantation of the Ithilid organism into a human host. in their natural state an ithilid is a squid like tadpole creature that cannot mature without a symbiotic relationship with a host. the "tadpole" replaces the brainstem, this is painless, as the brain has no sensory organs, but the personality of the host is forever altered. further, the body mutates as well resulting in the squid headed humanoid. in non human hosts which are much more rare, only the tentacles around the mouth appear. However on a gold dragon which has barbles similar to a catfish even these are almost unnoticable as the appear to BE part of the dragons barbles. however, the tentacles are fully moveable, the barbles are not... 9. Dragons and their colors: Dragons on Kaydaeryn fall under two catagories, Chromatic and Metalic. Chromatics (white, black, red, green, and blue) are ALWAYS evil, but may or may-not be a servant of Baaloth. Metalics (Gold, Silver, Copper, Brass, and Bronze) are ALWAYS good, and are often chosen at young age to be symbiote hosts to an ithilid "tadpole". Metalics and Chromatics follow the orders of their respective gods, Bahamut, the platinum dragon for the metalics; Tiamat the destroyer for the chromatics. if chromatics and metalics meet, unless the metalic is a smbiote, the dragons will fight to the death. 10. Shadow-Kai (part 2): I have mentioned that Baaloth was an evil Ilithid, the Shadow-Kai are Dark Symbiotes, usually with hosts formed of the forced cross breeding of captured elves and Red Dragon. these Grashin-thra as the dark tongue calls the half dragons are forced to recieve a spawn of Baaloth as a symbiote.

Cambrian_Explosion Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 Just so everyone knows, I took the Wargs directly from [U]The Lord of the Rings[/U]. If this isn't a good idea, let me know and I'll remove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daemos Posted October 20, 2004 Author Share Posted October 20, 2004 speaking of Tolkien ... which i have no problems in including elements of his work... take a close look at the dragons note... which i got from D&D (which was inspired by tolkien's books) and then go read the description of smaug "A red-gold dragon" if golds ar good, then what happend in that family? and now another update to the fact sheet this time its a more detailed look at the Cat-people known as the Cathsheen 11. Cathsheen: Cathsheens are lithe feline being native to the plains of Kaydaeryn. Once, they where humans, but the ?Winds blew upon their ancestors.? The legends say their human forbearers kept great panthers as mounts, but in a truly horrific wraithstorm mount and rider became one in the same, and not in the centaur fashion either? at any rate, the Cathsheen stand around five and a half feet tall, are mostly humanoid, save for large pawed feet, feline ears, and a tail, To say nothing of their cat-like agility. Their hair tends towards reds and browns, and their eyes are yellow or green, with slit pupils. Their ears and tail are covered in fur of the same or similar color to their hair. Their Clothing is loose fitting and comfortable, and is made of cotton or linen died in reds, browns, and greens. Graceful and lighthearted, Cathsheen are renounced for there playful nature and open-minded cultural outlook. More than any other of Kaydaeryn?s races, the Cathsheen are the ones most likely to be drawn to the ruins from the wraith wars. Cathsheens live in small cities on the Upper steppes of the Phalasus wildlands, their building style is rather unusual, many buildings in these cities could be described as ?tree-houses,? indeed, some are all but impossible to enter save by climbing. While this doesn?t bother the Cathsheen at all, it can be a nuisance to earth-bound visitors. Usually the Cathsheen build ladders to assist such travelers, but they do not always remember to leave the ladders on the ground where the visitors can use them. Though not incredibly well known for their combat prowess, the Cathsheen are the undisputed masters of all that is stealthy. In the wraith wars, Cathsheen Rouges and assassins where instrumental in driving back the Orc Hordes to the Windless Sands, often taking out the Ogrok commanders with a silent sneak attack or a well placed arrow. Most Cathsheen are rouges. A fair number become Sorcerers wizards or Fighters, a few become druids, monks, or clerics, but Cathsheen Barbarians are all but unheard of. Cathsheen Nobles are rare, generally only one noble family lives in each Cathsheen City Over 100 posts on the Kaydaeryn thread! I am still surprised the RP is going so well... As a bonous Im going to give you some pointless facts that have NOTHING to do with the RP except that they inspired it. A. D&D is the premier RPG of most RPG clubs, it has been through four revisions and has spawned a multitude of champaign settings to provide you all maner of worlds B. BESM is the Anime RPG "Big Eyes Small Mouth" its Tri-stat system is what the Kaydearyn RPG I am working on will use for its ruleset. It allows for over the top characters that the more subdeud D&D and its D20 system dont So everyone, keep playing!
