GRAND OPENING: MINGLE POST!

[rukhmods]

Welcome to Magnoshutatt!

The game is officially OPEN! Feel free to make your own posts in the community and get the ball rolling. To commemorate the game's opening, we've set up this intro mingle post to help you guys get settled in. NPCs might even pop in from time to time to guide your characters along or make their school life harder. Even so, we hope you have fun and enjoy!

Please don't forget to add the date when the thread is taking place (e.g. "5th day of the 1st term", "term 1, day 5") in the subject line! December 1 is the 1st day of the 1st term, December 2 is the 2nd... you get the idea.

Ah, another one who pretends such things are as easily used as swords.

[idolizer]

True... ah, this reminds me of that one series of books I used to read when I was little. It was about a magic school that was a bit similar to this one. [ It didn't have magic carpets though. ] I think it's definitely different than our current situation, but it's a funny thought.

[greatcleavage]

Not only is he epic-level, he's got probably the highest-level priest in the campaign setting on his side. So I'm not gonna put it past him.

[greatcleavage]

[Roy's smirk is distinctly lopsided.] My sister is enrolled in Warthog's right now. Er, Warthog's School of Wizardry and Sorcery. She's the one they wanted for this adventure, I think. I guess I'm just the one with the bad luck.

[fearlessherosheart]

Though, I suppose it does not matter if he can control it, as it should be stopped either way.

[greatcleavage]

Xykon should be stopped either way. As evil as his plan is, if he didn't have it he'd just be doing something equally as bad! There's no redemption for someone like that, and no excuse.

[fearlessherosheart]

Ah, then he is evil. Yes, I quite agree, and am surprised that only yourself and whatever friends you can gather are engaged in that pursuit. Were he in the Empire, he would be unable to move but for heros trying to challenge him.

[idolizer]

[ ... did she bring up a bad memory? ] Ah, I'm sorry about that.

[hellebarde]

I grew up in Japan, but recently I was staying in Death City in America.

[greatcleavage]

Well, his first appearance as our foe was in a dungeon well outside of any meaningful jurisdiction, and his second was in the middle of a hobgoblin army, so he's been pretty well out of any kingdom's reach without an army. And to be honest... he's an epic-level sorcerer. Armies aren't much either. Nor are heroes. I hate to admit it, but I think I'm still the highest-level good character on the field -- or close, after the resurrection level loss -- and he's still a dozen higher.

[greatcleavage]

Oh, it's nothing you should blame yourself for. It's just that she wants to learn magic.

[motheringnation]

....leafs in water?

[motheringnation]

Oh no... I've found people here. Lots of them.

I've been staying in a dorm. They seem to think I'm supposed to a student here. But I don't know ...where we are on earth.

[idolizer]

Death City. That's such a peculiar name, I never knew it existed.

[hellebarde]

I thought it was pretty famous... that's where Lord Death lives, after all.

[fearlessherosheart]

I doubt tales of his power would stop me, or those heros of my House.

[Because Dzurlords have a reputation for a disregard for the odds of winning that verges on insanity]

[splashpuppy]

Leafe.

[He emphasizes the last syllable]

I'm not sure why it's called that...

[idolizer]

And you didn't? Couldn't you be enrolled as well?

[idolizer]

I never heard of it.

...

Who's this Lord Death? The name is pretty ominous... [ She would be less snarky in her normal state, but... ]

[hellebarde]

[wh... aaa aa ??]

Lord Death...! The God of Death who maintains peace and order in the world!

[balzams]

Mm...

[Latvia seems to focus for a moment but nothing seems to come from it]

Normally I at least have a vague idea of which direction my country is in but here I can't feel anything... So there's some kind of boarding school nearby?

[greatcleavage]

Yes... sometimes you have to make the effort and engage, even if your chances of winning are painfully low.

But I'd really like to avoid dying again if at all possible.

[fearlessherosheart]

Again, you say?

[sorry, she's been out of touch of recent magical developments]

[neijing]

Exactly. So it could be more common than we think.

[She pauses a moment, thinking. How many people are being brought here and held captive against their will, and for unknown purposes? But offhand she has no way of knowing, and her first instinct - to go around reading people's minds until she knows for sure - is impossible. In the meantime...]

Tsugumi - can you tell me a little about Japan? Or America, whichever you prefer.

[neijing]

[An adventuring party... it's hard for her to think of "adventuring" as its own activity, and she can't immediately imagine what goal a priest, sorcerer, and musician might have in common.]

Is it similar to the sort they use here?
