| Welcome to Brotherhood of Sithis. We hope you enjoy your visit. You're currently viewing our forum as a guest. This means you are limited to certain aspects of the board and there are some features you cannot use. If you would like to join our Elder Scrolls based community, you must create a character within the lore of the Elder Scrolls and write them a back story. Our story began approximately a year after the Oblivion Crisis, and it ranges all over Tamriel. Each Province is represented and usable. Please take the time to read the back stories of those who are already here before you write yours, so we do not have repeats of ideas. (Great minds, after all, do think alike!) We now have a section that takes place during and after the events in Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. This section does not in any way interact with the old one. Again, you are most welcome here! Once your story is complete, join up and post it! A Speaker will contact you, and you will be able to join a Sanctuary. Or, if you would rather not be a member of the Brotherhood, you can request to play another faction. It is rather flexible and good. If you have any questions, feel free to email Shivani at anonymous_celt@yahoo.com.

Okay, the purpose of this thread is to figure out who is going to play whom. Some of our characters will not be alive in 200 years, for obvious reasons, some for not-so-obvious reasons. Without killing our current RP with spoilers, I'd like us to do some preliminary planning. For example: Who's going to play Astrid? Who's playing Nazir? Do we want someone to play initiates? Who wants to be brought back? Zahraji has asked to play Lyra, Shivani and Lucien's daughter. I'm fine with this. I have asked someone to join us to fill the role of Cicero. The way she writes and plays him is painfully awesome, in my humble opinion. Should she accept, I want everyone to try to not be TOO obnoxious until she gets to know us. That means you, Jhared and Minx! LOL So, let the hashing out begin! |

Well, Alani will obviously still be around. (Check Babette!) So there we go. I'm a character actress with long stage experience so wherever I'm needed, basically. I am a dragon, of course (Chinese sign! Lucky me, I AM Dragonborn! LOL) |

I may make a comeback in the Skyrim RP - but I am still deciding. For now, just messing around with the site and taking care of Admin duties is all I can really handle. I propose that no one transfers over old characters from the Oblivion RP. Playing one character in the Oblivion era, then transferring them over to the Skyrim era causes too many wrinkles. There are many unforseen things that may yet happen in the older RP that could cause great problems in the new. Children being born, the decision to kill off an immortal or elven character that would otherwise be alive, permanent injuries like blindness, deafness, or loss of limbs. Its by no means an order, but a recommendation. Descendants of old characters are fair game, just not actual old characters. Edited by Raqel, May 10 2012, 07:04 PM.

I was actually going to suggest the same thing! Yeay for great minds! I am NOT obnoxious... am I? Wait! Don't answer that, of course I am! It's my job. LOL So, tell this new person that nobody is going to bite her (her, right?). We're all friendly and nice and all that good stuff. Alani, will you be playing the new Listener? When will the RP start? Right at the beginning of the questline in the game? After it? Because... it kinda doesn't really have an ending... How's this going to work? |

That's what this topic is for! To figure all that out. I would be more than happy to attempt to play Festus Krex. He's old, cranky, and a mage. Edited by Reaper, May 10 2012, 07:28 PM.

I think Alani should play the Listener, regardless of whether we start anew or not. She's the site owner, and she's worked hard to keep us all together. If we're doing the Skyrim RP like the Flashback thread where we're all playing different characters, it could be a LOT of fun. I'll play Astrid. Nobody plays cold hearted Nordic bitch like I do. Besides, she dies. LOL I'll make up someone to play later. |

Speaking of the Blades, can we kill them off or something? Maybe have a Dovakiin who will smash Delpine's face in for DARING to demande the death of Paarthunax? |

Haha! Good idea! You should play the Dovakiin too, Minx! Since you're already keen to smash faces! |

If there is, I'm happy to play him, but are we having an Ulfric at any time? I would like to offer for him...For a DB member, I'll have to come up with a new character as there are so few of them.....and fewer as you go on! |

I like that idea, Lucien. No way in hell, Jhared! I'd play a young and upcoming Blade, but I would rather just stick to the DB... |

Now THAT, I like. If Janus is playing Tullius, I'll play Legate Rikke. :D Arielle for Dragonborn! Great idea! |

I think... we should start at the beginning. The Listener, whoever they are, stepping into the Sanctuary for the first time. And then... we can tweak the hell out of the game, add some head cannon, and have fun with it. |

Does that mean Minx has to be mean to the new member, if they join? How does that work, Shivani? |

Well, Minx wont be being mean to her. Astrid will be being mean to Cicero. Not the same, though we did used to have a player that confused the RP with real life and took interactions to heart. Everybody knows that Astrid's a bitch. |

Well, so am I, really. But, while Astrid hates and resents Cicero, I fuckin love the guy! He's crazier than I am! I hope your new player shows, Shivani. I really, really do. If you invited them, that's good enough for me. |

I have no objections to you playing the last Shadowscale, my friend! As for talk of the Dovahkiin... I personally think he/she should be left out, just as the Hero of Kvatch was in our Oblivion RP. I'm not saying this about anyone here, but someone might get jealous of the powers that the Dovahkiin has access to. So... why not just say the Dovahkiin never returned from Sovngarde? |
