DRAGONMOUNT

A WHEEL OF TIME COMMUNITY

Recommended Posts

Posted

Okay folks, I'm just copying this from the BT boards. It'll be good to use this as a reference for working out the details. At the moment I'm suggesting we cover each RP by it's No# so we can avoid getting confused. No need to reply to this thread (but you can do so if you want). I'm just copying over here for ease of reference. Raeyn/Owen, if we could make this an annoucement thread that would be great!  :D

 

Also, I'll be editing this as we go along to include the RP Status and Link(s) to the RP.

 

 

No# 1  **BIG RP** (Open) - Answering the Call (Blight RP with Congress of the Shadow)

 

This one has been sorted out and is currently underway. We kill shadowspawn, the Forsaken turn up and we run

No# 2  **Small RP** (Closed) - Recognising the need (Arath and Covai talk)

 

After retreating from battle and licking their wounds, Covai and Arath talk. Neither are pleased about the outcome of the battle, and how severely the Black Tower was beaten. After some serious hesitation, one of them voices the possible need to combine forces with the White Tower, as the battle must have involved linked circles of Dark Channelers. Whilst not wanting to admit the possibility, the two realise not to do so is pointless, and worse, dangerous. Individual channelers stand no chance against a circle.

No # 3 **Small RP** (Closed - Open though Signups) - Approaching the Boss

 

They proceed to inform Brent as M'hael, and also meet with Jarron to inform him, and broach the topic of creating circles of Asha'man and Aes Sedai. Jarron (after thinking seriously about it, already being aware of the Events in the Watchers RP) orders the Black Tower to make peace and do what they can to make such a collaboration possible, as it would present the only means of countering the Dreadlords/ladies in the future. (Aka: If the shadow can band together, than we can to)

 

(Brent in the mean time bitches, swears, and refuses the idea )

No #4 **Big RP* (Open for arrival, then Closed) - The Dragon inspects his troops

 

Jarron visits the Black Tower and calls the M'hael and all Storm/Attack Leaders together. In light of the failure in Shienar, and from the suggestion from Covai/Arath, Jarron declares that we must form a pact with the White Tower so the Light can once again create circles and channel on a scale not seen since the Age of Legends.

 

Brent and his inner circle flaty reject this idea, and Jarron tells them to shut up and do it. After Jarron leaves the Black Tower, the Storm Leaders hold their own discussion about what/where/how this is all to happen, with many voicing their distrust of Aes Sedai. After stronge debate, considering the prospect of reaching new heights not seen since the Age of Legends (and wanting serious pay back next time they fight the Shadow) the Storm and Attack Leaders agree to follow Jarron's orders.

**No# 5 **Really, REALLY Big RP** (Open, but only at a safe distance) - Fate Decided

 

Brent and his inner circle however refuse to bow to the consensus. Storming out of the room in anger and disgust with the rest of us. Later that day, as Covai is just about to leave to visit the White Tower, he is stopped by Brent, flanked by two of his supporters. Brent orders Covai to stand down and forbids him to go to the tower. Covai dismounts his horse and motions Arath (who has been talking with him on the way to the travelling ground) back. The situation has already attracted the attention of all thos nearby.

 

Covai goes toe to toe with Brent, refusing to obey, as not only do his orders come directly from the Dragon Reborn, he understands and believes in them without hesitation. He verbally blast Brent, reminding him that Asha'man are Guardians, they are to stand against the Shadow in Tai'Mon'Gaidon, not to play powermonger for their egos. He reminds them of their defeat at Sheinar, having been the one who lead their forces there at Brent's command. Covai states that he refuses to let another man's ego and refusal to accept the truth be responsible to the deaths of anymore men.

 

This attack infront of the entire Tower enfuriates Brent, who as Covai walks past him to continue to the travelling ground, attacks him from behind. Covai, who fortunately had enough time and distance between them erects a wall of earth to deflect the blow. The two leaders then face of in a battle to determine not only who leads the tower (as far as Brent is concerned), but the future meaning and existance of the Asha'man (as far was Covai is concerned).

 

As this is going on, Arath has barked at all soldiers and Asha'man to stand back from the fight, knowing any who get involved will most likely be killed. It is also Arath (along with the rest of the Storm Leaders who had been drawn by the commotion of the arguement) who take down the two Storm Leaders with Brent, as well as the third who comes rushing in late. They evacuate the surround area, following Arath's lead, and leave Covai and Brent to fight it out.

 

After an intense fight, Covai finally manages to kill Brent, leaving himself exhausted by doing so. The remaining five Storm Leaders, who along with Arath have taken care of the 3 Storm Leaders who sided with Brent, carry Covai back to his quarters and form a protective guard while he recovers. In the mean time, the Attack Leaders (none of whom sided with Brent) are in damage control mode, having to get the rest of the BLack Tower moving again, and try to clean up the destruction left from the battle.

 

**Everyone is welcome to post opinions and viewpoints throughout the arguement, duel, and aftermath. No one below Attack Leader however is to be involed in combat. Asha'man and below are free to be pushed back by Arath and the Storm Leaders (even offer a little resistance if they like), but thats it, otherwise they're most likely to wind up dead**

No # 6 **Small RP** (Closed, then open) - A New Black??

 

Once Covai has recovered, he and the fellow Storm Leaders discuss the battle with Brent. The Storm Leaders throw their support behind Covai, not only beacuse of the Dragon's orders, or the fact he defeated Brent, but because they can see that Covai knew what the right thing to do was. Covai calls for Arath to join this discussion, feeling he has shown himself true to the Black Tower's ideals, as promotes him to Storm Leader with the other's backing.

 

The Storm Leaders suggest Covai becomes the new M'hael, but Covai turns the idea down, hating the idea of the position, saying that putting only one man above the others is only asking for trouble. He instead suggests a council of Storm Leaders be formed, which with seven members, covers enough of an area to handle things, and the odd number prevents them become deadlocked in a debate.

 

After reaching agreemnt, Covai and the new Storm Leader Council address the whole of the Black Tower, informing them of the Dragon's orders, Brent's Death, and the new Council of Guardians (I like the name  ) that would govern the Black Tower from now on. They are also informed of the Dragon's orders to collaborate with the White Tower to create circles of Guardians and Servants to protect the Light from the Shadow. Covai announces his plans to visit the White Tower and speak with the Amrylin and Hall at this point, where they will offer Asha'man and bondmates to Aes Sedai, to ensure that both Towers are able to access the same ability to create a circle.

 

**This is where everyone gets to go 'oooh' and 'aahhhh' and "Light Burn you woolheaded fool!!!"

No # 7 (Small RP) - Open (Through sign ups) - Realisation

 

Covai opens a gateway to the White Tower. Unfortunately he happens to open it into a courtyard with Red Ajah members inside. Unable to close the gateway before they are spotted (Those shiny pins are a giveaway), Covai and his party  travel through and inform the Aes Sedai of why they are there, and ask to speak to the Amrylin.

 

Some of the Aes Sedai leave to report (both to the Amrylin and Ajah) whilst the others stay behind to watch over the crazies

 

**This RP will basically involve Covai and others rocking up and waiting around, admiring the sights of the White Tower from the courtyard. This RP will focus mostly on the Aes Sedai returning with the news and Covai's offer of collaboration. The WT can do what they like with this, and BT involvement will be confined to commenting how pretty the flower beds look, and how someone could at least bring them some food whilst they wait. Oh, and the funny looks on Novice faces have having a bunch of Asha'man standing around looking scary  )

No # 8 **Big RP** (Closed) - The Guardians and The Servants of All.

 

Covai is taken to see the Amrylin. (with the moral support from the others who have come along and don't have to say anything --- thanks guys) Covai starts to inform the Amyrlin of what has happened, but before he gets far the Amrylin sends for some other AS by name. The Red Sitters and Zarinen have already arrived and get escorted in, followed by the others with Covai (to even out the numbers),

 

In front of the assembled Aes Sedai, Covai informs them of all that has happened, from the Fall of Sheiner, to the Fight with Brent to the Dragon's orders, to the fact the Shadow has male and female channlers working in unison. Covai holds nothing back, even about how badly the Black Tower was beaten.

 

Covai then proposes collaboration between the two towers, not as a political move, but as one that needs to happen. He reminds them not only of the needs to be able to combat full circles of channelers, but of the true meanings of Asha'man and Aes Sedai. He pleads with to Tower not just to think of what is, but what they are meant to be, Servants of All, and Guardians of All.

 

They Amyrlin admits what a fine idea it would be to work together, but that Covai must understand that for 3000 years AS have been very wary of men who can channel, blah blah. Of course, the Red Ajah have more experience with such men than any of the other Ajahs. Reds might consider … oh … bonding members of the BT. That would help form better relationships. The Reds ARE the largest Ajah, so plenty of them around to help expand circles and such.

 

To their surprise Covai accepts the bonding of Asha'man as warders with little hesitation. To their ire however he also demands that Aes Sedai are bonded to Asha'man as well, so that the power isn't held purely by one side of the tower.

 

RP Status: Upcoming

 

No #9 **Big RP** (Open) - The Age of Legends Reborn

 

After the Aes Sedai discuss/argue about Covai and the Black Tower's offer, it is eventually agreed that some Asha'man will join the Aes Sedai as Warders, and some Aes Sedai will join the black tower. As the two sides reach an agreement, for the first time in memory, Male and Female channelers are treated as equals.
