A big thank you to anyone who was involved, there was a lot of good roleplay and good sportsmanship. This event was long coming for Katheryn and I and it was a real pleasure to have enjoyed it with everyone. Also, sorry for how long it is, I hope readers enjoy!

-=Following some exchanged insults and a challenge to duel, unfortunately outside of my log=-
Diritas smiles thinly at Benorf and says, 'I would imagine your views of winning are different than my own. Duel l'outrance then, Benorf. Such will be my satisfaction...' he gestures North and says, 'I will await at the Fields.'.
Diritas nods briefly, glancing at Seraphine and Aramil before marching towards the North, smiling.

E-Before the Lion W-The Field of Tr
The level field here is carpeted with verdant grass cut down
to a uniform height. Its soft blades rustle and sway in even
the slightest breeze, their soft motion incongrous to great,
bloody spectacles often hosted atop them. The field has tall
walls surrounded its circuit and, behind them, seats rise up
in even rows.
The sky is hot and clear and a hot southerly gust blows.
Seraphine walks in from the east.
Seraphine climbs up into the seats without a word, sitting near the top.

Benorf traces a finger along his holy symbol, murmers a prayer and nods his head. 'Ah be prepared.'.
An ash-grey haired male human moves over to the seating area, observing the two in the field.
Katheryn looks at Seraphine.
Diritas slides free his blade of his scabbard, murmuring a darkly prayer as the point taste the dry air of the sands, 'You may have the first charge. We shall pass thrice, then fight to finish.'.
Seraphine's eyes swivel towards Katheryn, her face softening almost into a smile after a moment.
Benorf nods at you.
Benorf circles you slowly, rolling his axe over his wrist. He nods his head and lets out a yell, charging in.
Benorf yells 'Fur Duty!'
Benorf approaches you and prepares to engage you in combat!
Katheryn looks around a moment before spotting Seraphine. She gives Seraphine a warm smile and inclines her head politely, 'It is good to see you...' before turning her attention back to Benorf and you at the shout.
Seraphine nods once in agreement to Katheryn then sits up straighter to watch you and Benorf.
Diritas circles with Benorf, blows exchanging with a flurry of sparks and a cacaphony of steel. He disengages and counter-charges after a moment, signifying the second pass...
You approach Benorf and prepare to engage him in combat!
A thin, frizzy haired female sun elf frowns.
Benorf nods in satisfaction as he lands a few hits, seemingly unconcerned with the blows he took in return. He spins low and tries to get under your guard.

Katheryn's face is unreadable as she focuses on you and his movements, every so often her eyes travelling to Benorf to do the same.
Diritas smiles cruelly at Benorf as the sparks fly from his plate. He takes a half-step back and readies his blade to his side, after a moment he sneers at Benorf and gives a nod, charging with a call of, 'For the One True God!' ...

Diritas murmurs a silent prayer and turns his hard gaze over the group, 'Someone see to him. The dwarf has shown himself to be a fool, but an honourable one.'.

Katheryn blinks at A leathery, white-haired female gnome in surprise before nodding, 'Aye, by all means, goodwoman. His Lord will see Him to if that is His wish.'.

A thin, frizzy haired female sun elf frowns.
Diritas's hands clench, his shoulders fall and his face blanches, his eyes alone raise to the sky for a moment as though begging for some relief from his position before he turns his face towards Katheryn. His expression seems soft as he looks over Katheryn, 'Kit...'.
Aramil leans forward as Katheryn steps onto the field, a brief expression of interest appearing on his sharp features ere disappearing again.
Katheryn reaches for her shield and fixes it to her left arm. The only emotion on her face is a stream of tears, her face remaining as marble. She says to you, 'You slew a good man today, a man of The Loyal Fury, a man who may have died honorably, but unnecessarily needed to. I would have stood before him while he was unarmed, but he asked none interfere.'.

Diritas stares silently at Katheryn, his face twisted from fearful shock to a mixture of anger and sadness, 'Katheryn, return to your knight. I'll have no part of fighting you...'.
Katheryn returns your gaze and shakes her head once, 'I would return to my knight if he suggests, but not because you asked. You asked a question and it was met with an answer. How different is it, harming me with your blade, than it is slaying the goodman you did today?' She lifts a hand, saying, 'Blood binds us, brother, but that equally binds us all.'.
Katheryn greets you.

Diritas's gaze shifts to Aramil, his expression seemingly pleading, 'Call her back Fairling...'.
Captain Jashun Windrunner yells, 'In 30 minutes, the Wave Reaver will leave for Corwell.'
The Wave Reaver leaves the docks.
An ash-grey haired male human looks at Aramil.
Aramil watches the exchange between you and Katheryn for another while then tilts his head and clucks his tongue softly, stepping onto the fields and marches over to Katheryn and you at a measured pace 'The man called Benorf needs to be aided, a task of priority for the moment.'.

The good priestess will see him through, as will Miss Mynaheir.' She inclines her head ever so faintly towards Aramil, 'I will stand back if I am stepping out of line at this time, but for no other reason.'.
You are hungry.
Diritas watches after the corpse and takes a slow breath, straightening as he exhales to look over Katheryn's determined face with an expression of sorrow, 'Katheryn... back down... you don't want this...'.
A caravan enters the city.
Diritas's face contorts and he pulls his gaze away to hide the misery creeping onto it.
An ash-grey haired male human watches the field, curiously.
Katheryn takes in a deep breath before saying to you, her tone calm and her words measured carefully, 'You are right. I do not want this. I am doing this because, there will be a time, later in our lives...do you see? This is bound to happpen. If it does not happen here, it will happen another time. I will give you a choice...'.
Katheryn says to you 'I can stand aside here, and we will meet again another time, or I stand my ground here, and we will meet again another time. There is no avoiding it.'
A muscle-bound male half orc looks between Katheryn and you quietly.
Diritas's voice comes muffled, his face held away as he speaks, voice almost a whisper, 'You're right Kit... today was always coming...'.
Diritas's head lifts and he turns his gaze towards Katheryn, his face a hardened mask of... something as he whispers, 'It needn't come so soon, dear Katheryn... but it has come.'.
Katheryn's face finally cracks as a faint frown settles on her lips. She nods very faintly at you in agreement, 'Another time, another place, and things may have turned different. But we are where we stand now.'.
Menela the wagon driver yells, 'In 30 minutes, a caravan will depart towards Berdusk, Shadowdale, and Zhentil Keep.'
Katheryn looks to Aramil and asks, 'I ask you give me this, Sir. I do not believe I am wrong in my judgement.'.
Seraphine raises to her feet suddenly with a shake of her head. After a moment of staring at you and Katheryn she sits down again just as abruptly.
The sun slowly starts to set in the west.
A caravan departs.
An ash-grey haired male human looks at Seraphine.
Diritas's posture straightens and he regains much of his imperative stance as he says, 'So be it...'.
Diritas's expression descends to a mask of cruel, hateful determination as his blade comes slowly from his sheathe, 'Katheryn Marshall, you stand before the will of The Lord. The Lord who's Supreme Throne I live and die to serve... there is no other option.'.
You get a sleek warsword clad in elegant cold iron script from a black leather leg sheath.
A sleek warsword clad in elegant cold iron script feels like a part of you.
You hold a sleek warsword clad in elegant cold iron script in both of your hands.
Diritas's lips draw into a cruel, almost maddened smile as he cants his head to look over Katheryn, seemingly quite oblivious to the single tear falling down his cheek, 'Your death will be for Him... and maybe in the afterlife, He will allow you to be saved...'.
Seraphine's shoulders slump at your words, her hands coming up to cover her face.
The night has begun.
A muscle-bound male half orc frowns serverly as he watches the event unfold.
Aramil returns Katheryn's gaze calmly 'I disapprove of this, squire' he murmures, then takes a soft breath and shakes his head briefly, turning to step in front of Katheryn 'Stop this madness, Lord Marshall. The squire will fight none here today.'.
Diritas's blade raises to a readied position and he takes up his stance, eyes flashing to Aramil, 'I will be His Hand of Murder... the decision is made, Fairling. This will happen now...'.
Katheryn's face falls, the sadness clearly marked. She hesitates a moment, then blinks in surprise at Aramil when he speaks. She frowns even deeper at Aramil, shaking her head faintly, 'You need not do this, Sir, and I ask you do not.'.
Diritas's lips draw into a sneer and he says, 'Insist, Fairling... and the deaths on my hand shall number three this day.' before turning his attention back to Katheryn.

A leathery, white-haired female gnome walks in from the east.
Seraphine catches sight of Nerian from through her fingers and stiffens in her seat.
The sky is getting cloudy.
You are STARVING!
Nerian's index finger taps idly against the sunburst vervelle linking his slung belt together, and his gaze wanders across the arena's seats (if momentarily)
Diritas stands, blade readied before Aramil and Katheryn, his expression one of cold, cruel hatred.
Nerian looks at An ash-grey haired male human.
Aramil casts Katheryn a brief glance 'Did you consider the consquences of your actions earlier, squire?' he inquires 'You are my charge with everything that entails.' he turns back to you 'I cannot and will not let you turn your murderous intents on a squire.'.
Captain Jocelyn Crane yells, 'In 30 minutes, the Wave Runner will leave Waterdeep for Corwell.'
Diritas's lips draw as a wretched smile plays across them, 'Then ready your weapon, Fairling... t'wil be you and I first.'.
Nerian lifts his chin gently and cants his gaze over the field, lifting his visor to reveal his face and settle his eyes across Aramil.

Aramil utters a soft prayer and regards Katheryn 'Very well, squire, it will not. But I approve that you are learning that actions can have unconvenient to negative consequences.'.
Aramil begins to chant.

Diritas murmurs a silent prayer, his face an expression of seething malice as he turns his gaze over those gathered. After a long moment he bows respectfully to Nerian and wipes clean his blade.
The Field of Triumph
E-Before the Lion W-The Field of Tr
The level field here is carpeted with verdant grass cut down
to a uniform height. Its soft blades rustle and sway in even
the slightest breeze, their soft motion incongrous to great,
bloody spectacles often hosted atop them. The field has tall
walls surrounded its circuit and, behind them, seats rise up
in even rows.
The sky is rainy and a warm southerly breeze blows.
The corpse of Katheryn is here. (superb)
A pool of spilled blood lies here. (superb)

An ash-grey haired male human is standing here.
Nerian's cruel glare across the field turns easy and a thin smile purses his lips. He turns half in a step and considers Althasizor and A honey-haired, slender female human, smile fading as quickly as it appeared.
Diritas nods at Nerian, 'They may assault, Banelord.'.
An ash-grey haired male human frowns eyeing the body in the field. 'So, he actually did it. Killed his own sister.'.
Althasizor looks at Nerian for a moment before turning his gaze on you, 'Leave. Now.'.
A honey-haired, slender female human frowns deeply 'Not my intention unless pressed to do so.'.
Nerian considers you lazily, leaning against the stands and lifting both shoulders in a heavy shrug. He reaches into a gauntlet and considers Althasizor, '..He acted in defense of challenge, wizard.'.
Nerian looks at Althasizor.
Benorf sighs sadly as he gazes at the corpse. He growls and says, 'Ah did no' think et possible...'.
Diritas's lips raise into a cruel smile, 'Collect her, Boy... see her to her Fairling Knight lest you join her and be rendered unable.'.
A muscle-bound male half orc murmers 'I am not surprised'.
Althasizor nods slowly to Nerian, 'Yes. He murdered three people against the laws of the city, clearly in the right.'.
Diritas laughs harshly, 'Fairly fought duels all. Acceptable on these grounds.'.
Althasizor shakes his head slowly at you, 'Perhaps your master may speak that way, but you...'.
A honey-haired, slender female human moves to the body 'Someone please get her and take her away?'.
A muscle-bound male half orc gets the corpse of a human.
Nerian's scar-cleaved brow arches thinly and he rests his right palm idly over the sword slung from his scabbard. His lips purse together in a faint smirk and he shifts his weight from his left foot and back again.
Diritas's lips draw into a sneer and he barks, 'Collect her and go. I'll not say again. Murmur a word of magick and you'll join her.'.
The spilled blood slowly seeps into the ground.
A muscle-bound male half orc lift up the corpse onto his shoulder.
Benorf moves to stand next to A honey-haired, slender female human.
an amulet of communication glows briefly as A small, vivacious female aasimar activates it.
A leathery, white-haired female gnome says to A muscle-bound male half orc 'Take her to the house of Wonder, I'll be there shortly'
A muscle-bound male half orc hefts her way away looking to Seraphine 'I do not have much in coin, and am not sure how to get he reaised'.
Althasizor sighs lightly behind his mask, 'We do not seek more violence. As the High Mage says, that is not our intent.'.
A muscle-bound male half orc asks A leathery, white-haired female gnome 'Where is that?'
A leathery, white-haired female gnome says to A muscle-bound male half orc 'North of here off of shark street'
A muscle-bound male half orc nods at A leathery, white-haired female gnome.

A honey-haired, slender female human says to A leathery, white-haired female gnome 'We need to work on your directional skills.'
Althasizor glances at A honey-haired, slender female human.
A leathery, white-haired female gnome points south 'North right?'.
A honey-haired, slender female human shrugs in response to A leathery, white-haired female gnome.
Benorf straightens and says to Nerian, 'An' Ah, as a Veteran o' this very school, wish both o' thaem here as ma guest.'.
A leathery, white-haired female gnome says to A honey-haired, slender female human 'I meant the Gondar Temple sorry'
a long chain with a tiny round bell and an emerald feather pendant glows briefly as Althasizor activates it.
A honey-haired, slender female human peers at Althasizor.
A honey-haired, slender female human rests a hand on Althasizor's arm 'Now is not the time. Wait until you have a calm head and our friends are safe'.
Nerian rolls his shoulders in a heavy shrug, his wolfen pauldrons straining with metal against maille as he does so. He looks Benorf over, 'And as a fellow of the very same, I reserve my right to assemble here as well, with Lord Marshall as my steward.'.
an amulet of communication glows briefly as A small, vivacious female aasimar activates it.
Althasizor sighs lightly once more before nodding his mask-concealed head to A honey-haired, slender female human, 'Mmh...'.

Althasizor makes a small motion for the others, 'The recently deceased are waiting..'.
an amulet of communication glows briefly as A small, vivacious female aasimar activates it.
A honey-haired, slender female human eyes Nerian with a level gaze 'I wouldn't bet your little black heart on it.'.

The day has begun.
A honey-haired, slender female human says to Nerian 'I am afraid the truth will be a bit different than what you believe it to be.'
A honey-haired, slender female human says to Althasizor 'Lets see to the fallen.'
A leathery, white-haired female gnome winks at you.
You say, OOC, '*wink*'
Althasizor nods curtly in response to A honey-haired, slender female human, gaze lingering on Nerian for a moment too long before he begins moving off of the fields.
Althasizor walks east, followed by a large group.
Nerian reaches his free hand into the purse at his side and lets his gaze linger toward the stairway.
Diritas smirks and shakes his head slowly as he looks to Nerian, 'I'd a mind to charge...'.
Nerian returns a cruel smirk of his own, watching you, '..And I'd a mind to remove both their heads for His glory, but numbers favoured the Waterdhavians today.'.
Diritas laughs harshly and says, 'Aye, they've a city and we are but two amongst them.'.
Nerian chuckles gruffly, withdrawing both hands to pluck them into the pockets of his mailled coat.
Nerian looks at you.
Radijji the wagon driver yells, 'In 30 minutes, a caravan will depart towards Silkhole, Applehill, and Westgate.'
Diritas's smiles cruelly at Nerian, 'Three this day, before the light of the filthiest of heathens. They know Strife... ever more so, they know Murder.'.
You stop using a sleek warsword clad in elegant cold iron script.
You sheath a sleek warsword clad in elegant cold iron script in a black leather leg sheath.
You put a silk handkerchief embroidered with 'M' in a dark green scalemail bag.
Nerian considers you as his eased gaze hardens, '..And blood spilled of your own veins in the girl - It would arrive sooner than later..' He nods slowly, contemplatingly, and shifts the weight on his feet.
Diritas's lips draw into a sneer, 'She's blind to the Truth. It was but a matter of time, and she stood before the judgement of The Lord...' he shakes his head slowly and says, 'Death to All who oppose Cyric.'.
The sun rises in the east.
A caravan departs.
Nerian presses a fist against his chest and withdraws the other from his pocket, settling both over his swordbelt, '..I am too long within these walls.' He shakes his head and drops his chin to you, curtly, '..You do Him great honours in each day you serve him - Your presence should be known in the realms, make it so known.' He moves to turn on his heel and adds to you, 'When you return to the Spires, find me and we will discuss what will come.'.
Nerian walks east.
Nerian stops following you.

Re: Great Role-Play
Posted: Tue Jan 07, 2014 10:57 am
by Raona
This is from long ago (2006), and only the start of a long RP...but I'm moved to post it because the whole string (5+ RP sessions) involved no combat at all, in contrast with the two examples above. I was hoping to make a book of it someday, but it got too long. So then I was going to make a play of it (when the puppets came in, that was my ambition in asking for them) but have not had time. It's a comedy, no doubt, but I'd put this up against Acquisitions Inc. any day. The player of the tiefling is still with us and active, one of my paragons of RP. I'll let them out themselves if they want to. (I didn't appreciate this at the time, but they clearly got Immly help setting up the scene, but they made the most of it!) Alas, Jaenoic's player no longer plays with us.
Of Deals with Devils: A Tale of a Tiefling's "Redemption"
Forward: My name is Raona Corbin. At the time of this writing, I serve as a private in the Waterdeep City Watch, and have been recently inducted into the church of Justice (Tyr). I am deeply moved by the tenets of the Churches of Suffering (Ilmater), Knowledge (Oghma), and the Dawn (Lathander). Let it be freely known that I am a woman of soft heart, despite having grown up in harsh environs. I have befriended individual goblins, orcs, and other dark race individuals, having given each individual a chance to earn my trust and aid, where many others have not. I firmly believe that whilst the challenges of their upbringing and intrinsic nature may make it more difficult for members of the dark races to follow a goodly path, taking it at face value that they will fail to do so becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Even of our enemies, we should seek understanding and insight, an appreciation of their outlook on the world, if only to better guard against their evil intent. It is with these beliefs in mind that I write this tome, as good a history as I can manage of a true tale: one that did open my eyes to the true nature of a fellow soul, though I still shudder at what I there saw. It is intended as both warning and parable, but in the hope of aiding those who, as myself, seek to trust those to whom few others will extend such opportunity. I am shaken, but will not falter in my hope that there may yet be a tiefling soul out there, somewhere, seeking redemption. As a bony red tiefling once explained to me, most tieflings have very diluted fiendish blood. Intervening generations can carry a fiendish taint without manifesting it. So before ye cast down stones upon those in whom the taint is obvious, think carefully on this: ye may carry it as well.
Dedication: This tome be dedicated to those of dark soul who nonetheless hold my respect, for they do not hide their true nature. I do not find any camaraderie with them, and my code prevents me ever working alongside them, even if our goals should coincide: but I respect their honesty with themselves, and others, about what they truly are. A creature can be evil, and still despise deception, as I do. That much I can respect in any creature.
Chapter 1: Oily Insurance
I was on patrol about the city of splendors with one of my commanding officers, Corporal Jaenoic of Ilmater, when we were called to a farmstead north of the City in response to news of a...public spectacle. She asked me "Care to come and investigate something with me? It may be...gruesome..." As I nodded nervously in the affirmative, she explained "A tiefling mentioned something about corpses by the North Gate. I fear his story be confirmed."

The fields around here are cultivated and long rows filled
with various crops stretch towards the horizon. Here and there
a field lies fallow while it regains lost nutrients.
Four crude pikes have been set up here, each of them with a
half-rotten corpse hanging on it. The whole scene is very gory.

An oily-haired, stylish male tiefling asks you 'Thank you, you know so well, are you my mother?'
You say to An oily-haired, stylish male tiefling '"I should be so lucky as to bear such a well-spoken child.'

An oily-haired, stylish male tiefling asks 'This is not a picnic ground?'
Jaenoic asks An oily-haired, stylish male tiefling 'Why do I get the feeling that ye just be making things up, to get a rile out of me, hm?'
You say to An oily-haired, stylish male tiefling '"Ye should seek a place in the ranks of the Deep's Outer Watch. Ye file a thorough report indeed.'
An oily-haired, stylish male tiefling says to you 'Someone has to do the dirty work.'
An oily-haired, stylish male tiefling asks Jaenoic 'Is it working?'
