Warhammer Fantasy RPG: Dark Majesty
« on: December 04, 2011, 04:48:43 AM »
Ok guys, this here is the game thread for the Warhammer Fantasy RPG, Dark Majesty.

A quick run-through of how this will work:

Basic Actions: Please post here what you wish to do. Do not include in your post how others react to your actions, nor should you attribute an action to another character. If you wish to undertake an action secretly, please pm me where I will determine whether the action is successfully undertaken and will post anything that would be seen by the rest of the party. In the case of whispering, pm the statement to me and I will pass it on through pm. Do not under any circumstances pm another player in character. As the GM I have to know what is being said.

Combat: I do not want this game to become bogged down in combat so most of them will be cut down into sections. Post in this thread what your overall objectives are for the fight. For example:
"I'm going to take the Gor on the left and try to kill it. If it turns out to be too strong I'll fall back." This is a lot better than,
"I kill the Gor on the left and then scare off all the others."
Remember, Warhammer is a nasty world. Things can kill you, and they can do it easily.

If you need help with something you want to do or anything at all, please pm me.

With that being said, my good players, welcome to Dark Majesty!

Player List:
Therix: Cuautemoc, Saurus Mercenary
Jubal: Frederich Tybarino Bagelskuchs, Tilean Halfling Agitator
NightAngel: Tonto Mortal, Bretonnian Bard
Dripping D: Bjorn Jonstrom, Norscan Berserker
Declan Jones: Folstaff Folstaffson, Dwarf Traveller
Mark the Khan: Barnan Arbell, Estalian Soldier

The Celeste comes to a rest in the Bretonnian colony of Bregonne upon the east coast of Lustria just as the sun begins to set. The people of Bregonne seem to be thriving, an appearance which has been encouraged to manifest itself in the face of constant danger and fear. The roving bands of Lizardmen in the jungle, Norse raiders from Skeggi or further north, vicious Amazon tribeswomen from the Dark Heart and even rivals from the other Old Worlder colonies all make punitive attacks on a semi-regular basis. The colony may be thriving but only because the inhabitants live life to their fullest extent now rather than conserve their energy and resources for a tomorrow which may never arrive.

The many passengers aboard the Celeste disperse throughout the burgeoning colony, eager to once again sleep in a bed that isn’t being tossed across the vast ocean.

You awaken to the sounds of thunder and gunfire in the night, rain pouring down from an eerie and uncaring sky. Hurrying out into the night air you find yourself joined by other passengers from the Celeste, also drawn out into the night air.

A woman’s voice calls out from down the dark street in strident Breton, “Help me please I beg you!”

I shout to the others.

"No time to lose men, with me."

I head in the direction of the cry, drawing my rapier as I go.
Scum of the highest degree and don't let charitable citizens tell you otherwise.

I'll head in the direction of the cry, trying to keep my head down from any such gunfire that might be flying in my general direction.

EDIT: I'll draw my axe and crossbow as well.

Sidle along the edge of the street towards the cry, staying in shadows as much as possible.

Walking back homeward I hear a distant cry for help and start to run towards the sound with my crossbow ready in my right hand and Espada in my left not knowing what to expect but ready for anything.

I will leave wherever I have been staying (probably some alley down by the docks) and pick up my weapons, before heading towards the sounds of the gunfire. I will move in the middle of the street if there is any cover, otherwise I will stick to the walls.
(If I see any of the other PCs I will try to link up with them)
As I move I will also scan the buildings around me for any signs of movement (generally sinister), while listening out for any fighting close by.
There are many shades of skin, many colours of personality, yet when you look deep inside a person, he is just like anyone else; red and squelchy.

I enjoy negotiation, all that hacking and slashing and biting and- wait, you do it PEACEFULLY?

I don't think Alexander's coming back so let's move on.

As you head towards the sounds of conflict, the noise dies down until the streets are silent apart from the sound of the armed passengers moving down the street. Abruptly, Frederich and Folstaff notice a large scaled shape moving up behind them. In the darkness the shape is indistinct but you see that it is at least seven feet tall. It is heading towards you with a large weapon held in its right hand. It appears to be wary, peering into the dark windows that line the street, evidence of the inhabitants of Bregonne lying low during the assault.

Tonto and Bjorn have run on ahead and are joined by an old Estalian with a crossbow and sword. The two of them have reached the north gate of the settlement and are stumped but the newcomer points out the signs of conflict behind them, the footprints, drops of blood and a broken dagger which the other two missed in their haste to get to the gate. From the disturbed ground, the tracks disappear suddenly once they reach within three feet of the closed gate.

Going to give the guys ahead of me a sign to try to indicate I'm not their enemy, (try to make it clear as possible), then try to continue down towards where I heard the shots coming from before, moving faster but still cautiously.
If the guys decide to attack me, sheath or belt my weapons and show that I do not carry a handgun, so I was not one of the combatants.

"I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Barnan but you can just call me Smity." Stumped on where the footprints went to, if anywhere, I suggest that we look on the other side of the gate to see if we can find any sign of whoever or whatever was disturbing the peace. Also confused, I look around for any sign of the unlucky victim.

I stop walking, and lean against a wall in something which hopefully looks like an attempt at nonchalance, facing the approaching figure to see what it/he turns out to be.

I sheath my rapier in the flashiest fashion possible and introduce myself.

lower weapon but still keep it at hand

"Bjorn's the name, raiding's the game. Wonder what happened here?"

How much blood is there? Are the tracks human-esqe? Is there a trail of blood, if so follow it.
