Not too mention that i still have school and might lose track of what's going on if we have too many people

I'm interested in this

Good points. A smaller group would be better. I've already closed the topic.

I suppose you may join in.

So. . . we've now got our members. Let's begin developing the story? Anyone got any ideas?

seeing as we're assassins...maybe we should be put together as a group to get to a big target like a king or crime lord

Alright. Sad to see you go. . .If you do become available at some point, feel free to pm me if you want, and you could jump into the RP (when we do manage to get it started).

And Rogue, I think that's a pretty good idea.

Will do. My posts would be rather sporadic, and I don't wish to hold anyone up.

see you whenever

I hope everything works out for you Katlina, I'd like to see you hop in at some later point.

So, regarding the storyline...I was thinking that the guild would be quite a famous and powerful one, however it would of course be a secret one, wherein the kingdom's government or council have no idea of who we are or where we are located. It would be quite a small group, having lesser members than all the other guilds. Us 6 would be considered as the top members of the guild.

Since the guild has its 'robin hood' style, we do only assassinate from the sinful and wicked. Our targets would come from our boss, or someone else on the council who feeds us information and the sorts. One day, the guild is given a new target. From Rogue's idea, it could perhaps be a king or a crime lord, just someone really important. The job of getting rid of the target came with specific instructions to give the job to "the best of the best," aka, us. Then, we can develop the story more from there.

However, I do have another idea regarding how us six are gathered together.

Perhaps there would be this man, once a powerful and respected lord and member of the kingdom's council. He had held power throughout the lands, and helped the king grow the kingdom into the glorious land it now is. However, the king, upon seeing how this man held such power and respect throughout his own kingdom, felt threatened. The king ripped this man's title off him and banished him, exiling him from the kingdom he dearly loved. The man left, however came back two years later with a fake name and a new face. Upon coming back, he found the once supreme kingdom now a place of oppression and tyranny. The same king still sat on this kingdom's throne, however now ruled with an iron fist. It was a reign of terror, and the man was heart-stricken to see this kingdom fall apart.

He then decided to form a group, a guild, of highly skilled outlaws, bandits, assassins, and rogues to help him. He did not seek to find help from the kingdom's knights, or the other non-criminal fighters. . .Because he knew that they would likely turn against him. Once the king offered money for the man's head, the people he thought would be good would immediately sell him out for easy coin. And so he sought out for those criminals, because at least, he would be able to give them something they could not resist: A place of solitude. A place where people will not be out for their heads. A place where their names would be clear and their lives would be better. A second chance.

Sorry this is a tad bit long. I got bored and decided to put my idea into story form for a better perspective.

that is pretty good...athough question...how literate is everyone?

I also wanna ask a separate question. How well acquainted is everybody? Like character wise? Have they known each other for years? Or do they just work together sometimes and not really bother to ask?

Great question. I know we're all probably on different levels of the literate 'charts'. . .but I hope we're all at least literate in some way. (I do consider myself to be the least bit literate, although someone please correct me if I'm wrong. Haha.)

Uhm, I have no idea. It really just depends if we're following my idea or not. I mean, that was just an idea. Others might have ideas of their own, and we could combine them to make an even better storyline.

I'm on the level of grammar nazi literate. And as for how acquainted we are, it really depends on what sort of scenario we are doing. If we're following Jaye's first idea then we would be at least somewhat acquainted. If it's the second idea then we would have basically no knowledge of each other.

Rogue really is an outcast more or less using motions to speak instead of talking...talking is rare for him, so if he talks then remember it

I would think me semi-literate
