So, we need to write the new story. Or, Elsy does *lol*
Let's brainstorm for the /story/ here.

Reminder: if it's concerning the ic structure, there are several posts about it. Let's keep this one clean and just use it to help Elsy out and throw ideas at her for the new guild story thing.

I am gonna throw in some information that could be used if you want, or not, I am just gathering it all here
  • Ice Eye said Dro'Jhala is an actual original citizen from S'ren-ja,
  • We are really close to Cyrodil
  • Reapers March has that name because there is always disputes over the land
  • There is a Daedroth that hunts by the docks, the citizens scare it away, but it always comes back (rumor)
  • Since being between the khajiit kingdom and the bosmer domains, both races should be common around there
  • It's known that groups of feral vampires and werewolfs roam the night around the city, closer to fort grimwatch (rumor)
  • The big house is haunted to those who didn't complete the quest.
  • Sren'ja is actually known for having a lot of skooma dealers and other dark people due to it's location being close to caves and having it's own sewer system.
  • The roads aren't safe, specially at night, but sometimes you can find a not so tired dominion soldier or random hero to save your day.
  • Is really close to Rawkhal


This is basically what I know now, after hearing and reading around. Anyone that might have information that could or could not be used by Elsy in creating the new story should post in this thread, please.
Let's keep it clean and simple <3
Sorry I hope this actually helps! If I find links with nice lore information I will post more

I was thinking of putting together the festival and delegating some jobs to any members or officers that would be willing to take a few. That way the festival will buy us (me) some time to come up with a new story arc. I was also thinking the festival could be a way to get the Dominion into Sren'ja and start forming Sren'ja as an outpost since I'm kinda under the impression that that is where we wanted to push the new story line to.

*Sniff* *Sniff* Ri'Zharim wants to join, damn real life getting in the way of my virtual one xP

From our meetings it seems that is where we want to push the story, sounds like a good idea to me. I was thinking maybe have the new factions come up through the festival. It would be like:

Us as a whole trying to figure out and organize who is doing what, and then have the idea of the leaders of these factions pop up to help organize things. Then say after the festival keep the factions to form a council for the city.

dunno if we had any other ideas on how to introduce the factions into actual RP

Ok.

Sorry, I'm a bit confused as to where that came from.

Well, I've been working on some events for the festival, as well as working in the factions so that they have a reason to form IC which will restructure the clan in the way we wanted. This may also give the factions a reason to choose a leader. I was thinking that each faction could handle and organize one event. I could also come up with a list of things each faction would need to do/craft/organize specifically as well as a materials needed list to make things easier.

Feel free to give feedback and criticisms on anything, be it structure, event rules, event prizes, anything. These are all just my initial ideas.

Factions:
-Guards
-Soldiers
-Mercantile Alliance
-Mages
-Citizens

For the Festival

Treasure/Person Hunt: organized by Guards & Soldiers together
-Prize: 1k per person
-One officer/leader will hide themselves in/near Sren’ja, teams of 2 will be made (one low level and one high level), 3 clues will be given about their location, first team to find person wins prize

Style Show: organized by Mercantile Alliance
-Prize: 1k
-One officer/leader will announce each contestant and the styles which they wear, like a fashion show each contestant will show off their clothing or armor they have created, the leader of the Mercantile Alliance and 2 others of the Alliance will act as judges and choose a winner to receive the prize

Trivia: organized by Mages
-Prize: 1k
-One officer/leader will ask 25 questions, the person who gets the most correct first will win the prize

Drinking Contest w/ Dice Roll: organized by Citizens

-Prize: 1k
-One officer/leader will gather participants around a table and pass out one drink item, having each person one at a time take a “drink” by rolling one 10 sided die, the person last standing will win the prize
-Die Roll: Even Number rolled, the character stays standing; Odd Number rolled, the character falls

Feast: organized by one leader/representative of each faction
-Gather everyone inside and pass out a low level food item, converse with each other, etc.

Cool! Let me know if you think of anything else or if you think something should be changed/deleted.

Just make sure that the chosen leaders are from this guild And that their characters live in sren ja.
It would be weird to have otherwise. Sorry to point this out, i just wanted to make sure this was clear.
Sorry

About the assassin hunt for The festival, isnt it too dark?
ElsyOct 23, 2014
Oct 23, 2014 at 06:13 PM #14
It's not really an assassin hunt. It's more like, "Hey this guy is hiding somewhere with a bag of gold! First team to find him gets to keep the gold!" I don't want anyone to kill anyone else. It's just a search/treasure hunt sort of deal.
