Fantasy The Roaring Sky - OOC

I made some changes to the post, both in regards to time-and-date and her having already been accepted into the Stormchasers, and also the way I handled Silver Wolf's character, Lupa. Since both of you said you didn't mind Byakuren's interactions with your characters, I left them as is for now, but if you change your mind please let me know. And again, I'll try to avoid this happening in the future!

Sheet's done. I'm glad I finally got to use this drawing. Iteration of the character it was originally attached to ended up not working out so it's just been sitting around ever since.

I wasn't really sure about the exact mechanics and power of rune magic, so I wouldn't be surprised if I got it wrong. Pls be gentle, boss.

Alright, everyone. Announcement time.
If you've already gotten the notice via discord, you don't need to read this.

We're almost through with the introductions, with only Alentiar ( Xethyrion Xethyrion ) and Virion ( CerpinTaxt CerpinTaxt ) left to do theirs. Once they are done, we can continue onto the next phase - I'm giving you until Friday next week as a grace period.

By Friday next week (GMT+8), we will be doing a timeskip. Make sure your intros and character interactions are done by then. Of course, if they are resolved earlier and if you guys have no further plans with regards to hanging around in Fort Zeldem, I will have the timeskip arrive at an earlier date than what is scheduled.

Timeskip is up.

If you need clarifications or have some questions, feel free to speak of them. I'll answer them as soon as I can.

If you need a semblance of the unfamiliar terms on the post, the notable locations section of the lore thread has been updated in compliance to the timeskip.

I've a couple of questions:
(1) About how far is the Crawling Sands from Fort Zeldem? Like, how many days (weeks?) ride will it take to get to the edge of the sands? Also, is it a straight shot or are there natural barriers between here and there (dense forest, swamp, a mountain range, etc, etc)?

(2) How long ago did we lose contact with the caravan? Like, are they just a few days behind schedule or were these guys supposed to be here a long ass time ago and we're pretty sure they're dead by now? Also, a little more info on the caravan itself would be nice; what were they carrying, how many carts/horses/people were involved, and where were they coming from.

(3) How sandbox-y and/or freeform is this? Because I can just make this stuff up if you want.

It would take at least three and a half days to get to the Crawling Sands, coming from Fort Zeldem on horseback. On foot, it will take double that time, give or take. Of course, this does not account for any natural barriers or detours you may take.

There are many viable paths from Fort Zeldem to the Crawling Sands, most of them have some form of a natural barrier that would delay you half a day at the very least, and several at most - there's a fair amount of forests scattered on the way to the south, as well as a number of swamps. There are mountains and hills, which going through would definitely slow you down for a while, but nothing that is comparable to the one that separates northern Valheim from the rest of the lands.

You can opt to pick a path that avoids most of them, but it'd take a much longer time, probably double the usual, if not triple.

(2) How long ago did we lose contact with the caravan? Like, are they just a few days behind schedule or were these guys supposed to be here a long ass time ago and we're pretty sure they're dead by now? Also, a little more info on the caravan itself would be nice; what were they carrying, how many carts/horses/people were involved, and where were they coming from.
Not long ago, three to four days at most. The caravan carries a varied cargo, most of which are the usual supply - things like harvested ingredients, salvaged metal, and the like. Among them, however, are some relics that would have come from some of the settlements at southern Valheim, and could prove to be more valuable than the rest.

There's likely to be two to three carts, with the one being larger than the rest, with not much of an escort as the fear of the storm is still very evident outside, and even inside the safety of the Citadel. At most, it'd consist of a few mercenaries and adventurers hailing from the southern towns and cities.

(3) How sandbox-y and/or freeform is this? Because I can just make this stuff up if you want.
Half, I'd say. You're free to make up things and add your own twists to the plot, the lore, and the setting - just make sure to run your ideas by me first before implementing them, so that nothing unexpected spirals out of control.
 
Because I was informed that there are people here that are not in the discord, here are the lines for Myv's art so that people can have an idea as to what he looks like.

I'm gonna give a deadline for the pre-journey prep posts. Not necessarily a timeskip but sort-of moving on to the next scene.

You got until March 10, then we go on. Finished or unfinished, stuff will be skipped.

Note that this is not to force you to post, rather to keep the pace moving.
