The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Potential RPG Idea

It is okay, that is not my call to make. I cannot force anything on any other character or player, and I would never want anything forced on me, especially that kind of choice.

I understand , and I was never trying to force your characters into that choice.  Thats not fair to you...

Well, you DID mention a catch-22 situation with Rhiga... but that never materialized. Good thing too, because if you had persisted, I would have gone something like dropped a castle on Isla, or something like that...lol

Anyway, it is good to hear that no one is forcing anything! :)

I would have used some device to get her out of it..but since that isn't going to happen.. :)  Given her reputation, I think there is quite a few cities Rhiga should stay away from.. I imagine they have rewards out for her capture?

Her home city of Hekaga has a reward for her capture. Since her audacious theft of those jewels (which she had to drop in her escape, and were since recovered by the prince), the crown prince of the city has been a lot more careful. His father is the one with the bounty on Rhiga's head, though. As long as she stays away from the city or the territories under its control, she is safe.

That clears up a lot of things.. what did she steal from Isla's father? I imagine she's stolen from lots of nobles.. given what you've said..

I didn't really think that what she stole was important... but lets just say she stole some jewelry (if you want specifics, a brooch) and sold it at a pawn shop. Rhiga can only steal what she can fit and conceal in her loincloth, so she couldn't steal a gold bullion or something like that.

That can work..  I imagine Rhiga will probablt keep to herself and no mention her thieving..

She will definitely keep it to herself. If she is invited to Isla's palace, she will be returning to the scene of the crime...

Granted Isla doesn't know that.. she'd feel very differently if she knew..

Well, Rhiga won't say a word... although she might be recognized by the household's servants and other residents as a dancer... still, none of them pinned the crime on Rhiga... although one of them might have been suspicious (that is up to you.)

I don't like too much ambiguity, at least, when I am trying to do a serious RP. By contrast, my character in the Cafe RP gets into arguments with the narrator and acts like a walking stereotype.

Yes, I can see where you 'd like your characters straight up.. I usually play my characters the same way.. although sometimes i throw in a quirk here and there..

What are your plans for Isla, if I may be so bold as to ask?

I Plann on having her marry a middle son of a nearby lord..a couple years from now.. She will downplay her "instincts' at that point, but until then, She is anmbigious.. I'll keep it understated though in the rp..

That sounds good. Do you think that the characters should visit her estate at some point?
