I am putting out a general overview of some stories in progress/about to be in progress and what they will be needing! Some of them are led by myself and in others I will merely be a base board as another awesome entity steps forward. Who's ready to state and country trot?
1.) The Long English Night: The Lady Governor of England will be returning to the state to supress a series of rebellions spreading like wildfire across England. The party is open to including any who wish to come. The objectives of this story will be to:
- highlight the divisions in England: for Griffin/Against/Old Monarchy Sympathy/ No Monarchy or Griffin/Monarchy re-estblished under Spanish rule
- engage rebellious parties/scenes/ideals in: London, London: River Thames, York, Cantebury region at Kent, Somerset at Glastonbury with each scene waiting for ideas to meld with some already set including battle scenes, ideas being discussed or written, etc!
- Engage with Spain
- Once it is supressed/contained as it can be, high tale it out before the mobs come storming!
Always room for: intrigue, daring do, ship battles on the Thames River and on the ocean, plotting English nobles and foreign nobles, the common man's reaction, international reaction, government officials, writing done from the perspective of English people, and what you can devise!
Map of the British Isles, For the Story Pay attention to England, Scottish Borders imparticular for location + local ideas!
2.) The Apex, Ireland, Autumn 1332 - This story will host the Lord Govenor's conquest out to The Pale, an area of English controlled land and the final unifcation of Ireland. The battle sequences will be written by Jack Flynn, with additional basis and scene opportunities provided by myself as Evangeline of Dublin. There is plenty to do here including:
- English Lords (English Areas can be found on the maps in the Apex thread in Eire, Lands of the World)
-Anglo-Irish citizens. all classes
- Irish citizens, all classes
- Reactions from the citizens based on the introduction provided
- Illustrations of Irish life from other areas based on the Map
- Dunlace, seat of Irish government: Inquire about this with Jack Flynn, write up forthcoming on Irish bits to know
- People to move messages in the resistance, and tid bits to throw around for crimes and battle sequences
- Griffin representation, Scottish observations of the Irish cousins
There is room in both stories for personal interactions between characters, free writing from one open scene to the next, etc so don't be afraid to jump in as the chance presents itself with your own free write to introduce your character and concept, as the plays will be a combination of live scenes and strung together writings showing a network of different thoughts from across all areas.
Two Become One - Espania/Secrets and Maps: This story will focus on the new united Kingdom of Spain through a marriage that will also open up Spain to he possiblity of seeking England to rule. The country also has as dominant factor in the upcoming Trade Wars Chronicle as a nation that would not want the Mo'r Triath in negotiations with heathens for the Strait of Gibraltor for control of the trade, and friendly negotiations with enemies of Christendom. Spain, too, is at the forefront of European power with newfound influence to impress the Papacy with the extent of its devotions. Paired in with one former Plantagenet Queen, Two Templar Knights from Spain, an old treasure ship, the ambitions of a King, and the whispers of others it will make for a fantastic journey as the history is rewritten.
- You can find much of the Spanish agendas in the story 'Secrets and Maps' which is also open for play, I can point out which posts can be quick read to get an idea
*Secrets and Maps is a fantastic jump point, as it's conclusion will lead into Two Become One - for details of intrigues check with Marius deBrabant, myself, and for things to come check with Adam Aberdeen.
What is needed will apply much like the other stories above with a Spanish focus to also include: Templar Knights dealings/opinions/travels (Skye and Spain), opinions to advance a Templar war machine in the headquarters along the Spanish coast. A link will be provided to other posts to pay attention to as the introduction is completed.
Hope to see you on the writer's side!
