Yeah. This beginning part could be somewhat tricky. It's a challenge I wanted done on purpose, though. It makes the game more personal and interactive.
By the way, Zhar, I appreciated that you mentioned your excess of casting spells weakened you at the very end. I was afraid I was going to just see everyone flinging spells left and right, but it looks like, if others follow in your footsteps, it will turn out fine.
Thanks man, it seemed as if you were going for a casting system similar to the one present in the Eragon series, so I added that in.
And if you haven't read those books, it's pretty fucking similar, and from what I've seen of your overall writing style, you'd probably enjoy them.
And yeah, it's actually a lot more interesting to actually figure out how our characters met in game, instead of having a pre-existing relationship prior to game start.
Hopefully we all manage to group up in an interesting way :D.
I was actually considering making my guy the dude holding the dead body and yelling that speech, but I decided against since I thought you may have something else planned for that character, he seemed fairly important.

Damnit man!
This makes me want to rethink my entire post-history!!!
*rage*
Seriously though, it would be nice to see him return to dish out some badassery.
But wait... any way we like?
He is so going to become a door to door salesman once this revolution is over.
Also, Turmobil, don't mean to rake on you, but maybe change your writing perspective to match that of the rest of our posts?
It's just a little awkward to read when everyone has their posts in second person, and yours are in first.
Knowhatimsayin?
Feel free to flip me off and continue writing in first person though, don't mean to shit all over your writing style, just saying it may be a little easier to read if everyone is writing in the same perspective.

I am a bit confused on the locale. I thought that we were not at the "castle". I thought we were in a town of nobels and guards. But the archers are at the "castle" but theycan shoot us. How close are we? Or have we already made our way towards the "castle" wall.

I said in numerous posts in this thread, on the site, and in the story thread that we are not starting in the castle, we are before the fortress walls. Outside the fortress are the housings of the nobles. That is where we are.
As for the marksmen, they are shooting from atop the wall, as noted here.
I knew that we were not in the fortress. I was under the impression that we were further away from the fortress. At least far enough to not be attacked by archers on the walls of the fortress. My mistake.

Ah, okay. I can understand that, then. So, to answer your question, although I guess you've got your own answer now, yes, we are within range. We are among the other revolutionaries, and they're firing at them, so
Ah, fuck I meant third person, yes.
Dunno how I got that mixed up with second person :/.
But oh well.
And yeah, good point about no connection to the character, never thought of that.
Well again, don't change on account of me, guess we'll leave this up to Seth.

Turmobil, is the area you are now in where Jetrall's lovely lady has removed herself from?
If so, it looks like we're almost ready to progress.
Edit~
Posted mine.
So far, we have Aidan, Tyreon, Laist, and Henry are all in a small noble's house. Aidan and Tyreon had entered it from an alley through a rear entrance and Laist and Henry were already in the room. Farihah called down a wall on an ill-prepared noble outside the building on a main thoroughfare, which the group inside the building heard and felt for its close proximity. And Turmobil's character seems to be very near the whole situation, as well.
@ Turmobil: I do not want to stifle your personal writing style. That said, it would be easier for us to remember the name of your character if you wrote in third-person as opposed to first-person (for obvious reasons). It's your call
I'm kinda near the situation if you didn't read my post, mentioned the small child running down a back alley (the one Fariah talked to). So I'll be arriving shortly.

Ah, I must have accidentally left your character out of the list. Then, including that notion, every character should be accounted for.
Guys, try to bounce off other people's ideas in your own posts. It weaves them together in to one story. Add bits about yourself and then conform it to what's around you. I've been seeing degrees of this and it looks like we're going in a good direction.
Let's all try to be together in the building to plan (or agree upon) the next action and found our companionship. Then we can move on to the wall and the real battle will begin for us.

EDIT: In case it's not clear, my post is an in for anyone who 'heard that sound' to come to my rescue.
And the volley is continuing, since Derroda said "fire at will". Feel free to respond to that however you would like.
Also, the Standing Legion soldiers that were dispersed about Aboron are now joining the battle of Nyord Sardi.
Balls, I thought it was a single volley to be shot down at us.
Well I'll add that into the next post, may be how I meet ya'll ^^.
I figured it would be easier if Henry wasn't around when we all actually meet up and start the team. So I killed him... :/
*silence*
He was a good NPC and led a good, but brief, life.
