So, we've got a RP with some Blue Witches coming up, and I'm wondering who wants to be in it?

 

Maybe we could make it a der'Algai special project? :)

 

 

 

A Clash of Interests

 

Setting: Cairhien

Time Period: About a year before Dumai’s Wells

 

The Crime)

 

About two months before she is arrested in Cairhien, 16 year-old Brianna Pryan flees Amador, closely pursued by the Children. She is charged with blasphemeing by touching the One Power and the murder of Roman Fliance, an officer in the Children of the Light.

 

Brianna, a street urchin forced into prostitution by her poverty flees from one of the city’s inns. The innkeeper, the next morning, finds Roman’s body. The officer is dead, apparently without wound. Other prostitutes later confirmed that there had been several odd occurrences around Brianna, linked together with the murder the Children deduce that she is a Wilder.

 

The Sisters)

 

A group of Blue Sisters (3?), with business in Cairhien discover that a young Wilder (Brianna) is under arrest for thieving and ask the king for her custody. Their request is granted.

 

The Children)

 

The Children of the Light, who have followed her to Cairhien learn she is being held by the Sisters and plan to ambush the party outside of the city.

 

 

 

- Parties scuffle (maybe NPC deaths?) and Brianna is killed.

I'd give it a go but Con wouldn't be choice for it, and the time he actually joined the Children compared to maintime is perpetually iffy. I'll play a TPC or NSW for it or whatnot if needed though.

Cannon fodder!

 

*runs around all hyper-like*

 

... Er, no more sugar for Katie.

Sugar makes life fun :P

 

Sierra's from Cairhien, so it might make sense for her to go along...? *shrug*

Manda said last night on IM that she was totally up for it, so why don't we make it a der'Algai project? Whee!!!!

So, if you can get cracking on a TPC bio, Jimmy, we'll get that in and get started anytime. Whee!

Here we go, I slapped something together :)

 

 

Name: Toran Meyer

Age: 18

Origin: Amadician/Ghealdan Border

Physical Appearance: 5'6", 74kg, brown hair and eyes. Barely worn features, hands are only beginning to develop calluses from swordwork. His back carries multiple layers of scars.

 

Personality: Helpful but shy, prone to daydreaming and his focus wandering. When attention is centred on him, things tend to go wrong and he becomes rather clumsy.

 

History: Raised in an abusive household, by the time he was eleven Toran could take no more and fled. Surviving by begging as he followed the roads south, he ended up in Amador. Begging only went so far, and at times he stole to survive.

 

It was during such a theft that he was caught trying to take off with a pair of apples by a Child of the Light. Rather than carry off Toran for a branding, the man was going to give him a whipping with his belt which led to him pulling up Toran's shirt and discovering the numerous scars.

 

Laying aside the belt, the man instead took him to his brother's home, where he was taken in and raised. A gentler home he couldn't have asked for, but he couldn't shake off his early years completely. He was never comfortable with attention, or anyone knowing about his back, so he was often the quiet one in any group and always wore a shirt even on the hottest days.

 

When he was seventeen, they received word that his 'uncle' had died in service, and after the funeral Toran decided the best way he could thank his 'uncle' for what he did was to take up the sunburst himself. Joining the Children of the Light, he was quickly sent to the der'Algai as his uncle had been one himself.

 

While developing into a competent fighter, he was by no means excellent, his wandering daydreaming a contributor to that. But he hopes to do his uncle proud all the same.

You know, I can only think of two other people who post their bios instead of sending them where they go despite the fact that they know better. One likes to use the word 'teh' and ends sentences with ,,,. The other is pro-Hitler from what I gather. I'm a bit surprised to see you join their ranks. Well, maybe not that surprised.

I need to check on the TPC approval process, anyway. Haven't had one since the new policy came into effect.

Meh, I couldn't be bothered, its just a TPC :)

 

Besides, that way I could see if anything needed altering, and I could draw on not just Kate's opinion, but other learned opinions like your own, which I could count on to comment on the bio :P

Rawr. We love the witches. Love them so much that they get the heart shaped pokers.

[blinks and back away]

Hmmm. Y'know, I suppose it might be. But we like to ignore timelines anyway, so I had been assuming that it was afterwards. *laughs*

Time-whats? :P

 

And be amazed. I've actually posted somewhere. *is inordinately proud*
