3.0 Out-Of-Character (OOC)

Lessor sons going off on an adventure to prove themselves is common in Bevory, Octavius will be welcome here. For the actually formalities and mannerisms, these are tied up in the Lore Heraldry and Society skill, I'll say Octavius will have an advantage on his home turf, take a plus +2 to these rolls.

You can attempt to name drop you family or even pull rank on a minor noble. It might backfire though, Bevory has alot of infighting, so it depends alot on how your and the other noble houses get along. Octavius will is pretty sure his house get along with the Aldori

Also, you should name your house

I should name my House. I'll work on that. Probably something vaguely Roman-adjacent. As for the rank of my parents, I'll let you decide. They aren't insignificant, just not wealthy enough to properly dowry the horde of children they have. Definitely the lower half of the noble rankings.

Ok, digging through Roman names I've figured my family name is Poplicola, but for the mean time I've taken the last name of Metallus [Octavius Poplicola Metallus] in case I'm a failure and need to have a bit of distance from my family to protect the name. I still bear a modified family crest, with the upper right quarter bearing a spear over a coin.

What part of the world should I specifically be from. Rostland is a bit far from Taldor, but the wiki seems to indicate that Taldans are all over the place. It also indicates that Taldans are dicks, but I'm going with My Family is Provincial as All Fuck and Not Dicks to the Locals.

Also I'll lean into the whole naming thing and be the 8th child of my family.

Taldor is modelled of medieval Byzantium. A quick history Byzantium is that they had a habit of screwing other nations with complex elaborate treaties and betrayal. They were the Roman Empire I there minds. Taldor is probably a little more honourable then the Byzantine, they send knights and paladins out on crusaders all the time, that makes them the good guys right. Taldorians are definitely more arrogant, being the inheritors to the mighty Atlanteans

Now it would be perfectly reason for a house in Bevory to claim lineage to a Taldor house. Let’s your family started in Taldor, but gained land in Brevory. How about your great great … great grandfather ride with Choral the Conqueror who granted land and tile for lands out in the Rostland plains. There are rich fertile farming lands.

You can go with providential as fuck, but not dicks. While holding onto the Taldor(Roman) traditions and mannerisms

And thus the noble history of my house is put to paper! HUZZAH!

So wind down the feast?

I have an understading of our future position in society, I've met or observed the potential competition, and I've gotten registered formally in this project. That's all that needs doing at this point. I'm with Tassel that we should get all this in writing, though

Dalia test

Steve you missed the zoom meeting. We decided to try and ally with the people who don't suck of the npcs and fuck up some shit and sabotage the assholes.

I'll stick to the allying half of the plan. It suits my skillset better than being sneaky. Stealth and Theivery are 2. Not my worst skills, but still quite terrible

I’m all fairness, the sneaky players have attracted the attention of a guard due to thier noisy crafting.

Ok, I figured out how to enable multiple characters. Jen, Chris you can add your familars
