Yes, my orignal statement was unclear on that. Together we have a singular world view that must be kept consistent and the plot which is closely linked with the setting must likewise remain consistant. I was referring to our ability to make the revelations to our characters interesting by...

It is nice to have mystery but because we don't have a 'storyteller' like pen and paper RPs, we all have to contribute to the writing and that requires foreknowledge of the plot. Still, there is room to maneouver so we can each add our own mysteries in the details.

Are the British really that popular in America? I know lots of people over here who do not like Americans but I think that is based on envy of what the US has achieved since breaking free - The US has risen to completely eclipse its former masters and I think many English folk are still sore...

"Holy shit!" Gabriel swung toward the speaker, his gun snapping into line, his body on autopilot, preparing to kill everything nearby. "Calling out like that it what would have killed you." commented the assassin. He holstered his weapon and walked towards nervous rearguard. He was sweating...

Oi, oi! What's all this talk of silly Brits? THough not normally particularly patriotic I am incensed that some 'colonial' has the nerve to talk like that about their betters. Deary me. However, you are correct that the Longbow was a Welsh invention. But it didn't protect them from English...

There was a glimmer of daylight spilling down the concrete steps. Jim rounded the corner first and turned to others to express his excitement. "We made it. We're back at the exit." he smiled at Grim who looked up at the light and grimaced. The attraction of escaping this tomb was great but...

Congrats on the driving test. I got very angry when, despite being oe of my instructor's better students and a pretty good driver, I seem to lose all that skill in test and fail. It pissed my off royally, but as Marcus Aurelius said, Temperance and wisdom are two of the greatest virtues. I must...

Grim knew they must be getting close to the exit. Once they got there, they could retrace their steps inside and find the others. It was better delaying a rescue to make sure it was successful. A strange humming sound filled the corridors and the three men stopped, all drawing weapons, preparing...

The three men ran, desperate to lure the gimmers into reckless speed, which would enhance their chances of not seeing the trap. Jim's grenades should do the trick. Gabriel hoped the fake rig he'd set up, a little way before the real grenade surprise, with a few inactive glowsticks and tracker...

His arms were tiring and his breathing was harsh and laboured but still he fought on. Elation had filled him when the gunfire began, knowing his companions had arrived but he was still surrounded by the short underground creatures. Despite their small stature, several were powerfully built and...

Not for the first time in the last few days, Gabriel Wolf reflected that this mission, despite all earlier assurances, was going to get him killed. He ran. There were just too many of them and even looking at the malformed trogladytic hunters made him want to wretch. They weren't as stupid...

"Wait." Gabriel stepped forward, moving to place a hand on Grim's chest but then thinking better of it. "I'll go first. It's damn dark down there but that won't matter to me." he glanced around. "Carry torches and follow me after about a minute." then realising his mistakes in the past, "That...

Okay, we're cool with the underground train idea. Good. I know it is presumptious of me but given the likely low-light conditions, I would suggest the Gabriel leads the way as his night-vision makes him the perfect scout in this situation. I have three days of exams coming and I am busy...

I think I'm going to agree with stranger because although a subterranean railway out in the middle of the desert sounds a little far-fetched, it will provide a good adventure to break up the monotony of a caravan trail (at least our characters will probably think so) However, a bunker of some...

I believe that pen and paper queries would be acceptable here. This is a role-playing board and it is understandable that new comers will assume the board is designed to facilitate the pen and paper element as well as our own venture. So I support the inclusion of Pen and Paper discussion on...

Yeah, my first thought was a cross desert water mains, pushing a lot of water under pressure, but then my old horror film brain took over. I guess we will find out.

The critter in your post, Welsh, sounds like a giant Graboid from Tremors. But it is way to big to be a normal one, so I am not yet certain.

Gabriel watched the camp begin to stir from his vantage point on a rocky outcropping rising ten feet out of the desert. As the sun rose his clear view of the camp was fading as his pupils contracted. Slipping his sunglasses on, the assassin turned and gazed out across the desert. He knew he...

Blimey, things were moving slowly and so I took a little time out of reading the posts while I was busy with revision and now things havew moved on. I'm rally sorry I didn't get a chance to post yesterday, I would have liked to have had some input on our first day on the trail. I'll have to make...

Gabriel considered Grim's words. It made sense but in that unwanted, faith destroying way that no one ever like to hear. Loyalty had meant so much to him decade ago. When he was sixteen still on boot camp. He trained because he wanted to be part of the Slayer force, just like his father and his...
