A New Redwall, with civil war and hookers!

SKYQUEEEEEEEEEN HAS FALLENNNNNNNN!!!
I'm literally right here, you assholes.
ALL IS LOST
It's a cracked humerus I just need a splint, you have thumbs, get over here
EVERYTHING IS RUINED FOREVER

 

Meanwhile Seth is just baffled at the all adoring red-furred babes trying to get into his pants.

 

Star falls over laughing... until they get to Holt Wharf and she's surrounded by otters going out of their way to pose, lift arbitrary heavy objects and swim really fast conveniently near her

 

So that leads to the question - how are we gonna order all these shenanigans? Obviously Raksha and the flitcheye are closest geographically, because the Gawtrybe are some undefined distance from Mossflower (presumably) in the North Mountains, since Martin ran into them long before he met Gonff and the other Redwall founders.

Also looking at the map, the Charpelt Dreys used to stand in the eastern borders of Southsward into Mossflower, a little north of Castle Floret (which is uninhabited atm, to the best of Seth's knowledge), and nearby where that tributary of the Great South Stream runs out from the Great Lake towards the sea. I think that Holt Wharf intended to move to the lake after spring flooding wrecked their great hall, but instead wound up well north of that, east of Brockhall and somewhere along that part of the stream, I think.

(I found a really good Mossflower map to peruse :P)

 

-slips in ten minutes late with brandless coffee- sup Aviari tagged me in from fan town

I am from the "what is preplanning ~ anything goes ~ aces wild" school of rp and also very busy with otherforum for my rp, so I dunno about joining in, but I am happy to watch and read and occasionally pipe in ideas or potential characters as needed I guess? Is that a thing. lolidk how this planning thing works WITCHCRAFT.

 

@Artemis lol that works! Welcome to the shitshow!

 

Raksha + Flitcheye --> RE w/ Gawtrybe on the move heading south because someone's game got confused and now they're just wandering because Skyqueen NotBoldred can't wrangle them back into their turf? --> south to the river/lake?

Oof. Maybe hit the otters first so we're not dragging an army south?

 

Yeah, that might be an idea! I know Raksha is happy to join up but not immediately point them in direction of her friends and family. Maybe Raksha---> Otters ----> Flitcheye etc? She would definitely be more inclined to trust them if they defended her from so called 'goodbeasts'? Also she wouldn't be looking to add the Flitcheye to their cause intially - it would just be checking up on her sister and that side of the family before going to touch base with Cantrip, just north of the Quarry.

 

So how do we find Raksha? Easy answer is "Well we're in Cannibal Toad Territory." and rescues from cannibal toads are practically a requirement for Redwall. Thoughts?

 

Okay, so I gave this some thought overnight and I've come up with this -

Raksha and a few other vermin mercenary types were given a mission by someone - not sure who yet, they might be relevant or not - to slay the King Toad so that the others might come under the jurisdiction of this mystery beast. As you can imagine, this goes pretty south pretty quickly, and most of her band are killed, with her and one or two others under them big weighted nets what the toads use, still fighting like madbeasts and cursing them blue.

Cue Seth and co coming over the hill like Big Damn Heroes XD Would that work okay?

 

I dig it

 

We appear to have stalled. How do we want to proceed to Raksha?

 

i am intensely drunk rn due to brexit

will discuess when son=ber

 

Oh jeez I just figured out what that even is, I am the ignorant American, it is me. Hang in there.

 

Okay, so I'm in some kind of state fit to RP once more. Sorry about that. Are we all still interested?

 

Yep! Not sure how we'll be able to save Raksha without a bit of a time skip due to Almost Died, though.

Someone want to sum up a few days of heading deeper inland and over a hill like you said?

 

I can do that, if you want. Might have to wait a little more, though - I just got in from a long day and are hella exhaust.

 

No rush :D

 

Oh! I'd forgotten - are we allowed to use f-bombs etc? Because if so Raksha's got a mouth that would make Karkat Vantas blush XD

EDIT: Also also, both Seth and Raksha see no problem with eating birds and bird eggs if they come along. Seth's got more manners than to ask for real meat, because he doesn't need it in his diet to survive, but Raksha's had a cub or three and needs more protein and calcium than just fish and veg are gonna offer XD

 

I'm cool with accurately salty language, unless we want to sub it for more animal-accurate things like "rut"

Star's down with eggs, fish and probably not entirely opposed to small amphibians if it comes down to it.
