Capt (page 332),

I thought Angel did describe a hand signal? Maybe it only seems to me. I am also active in Wattpad, and sometimes will start reading up to a few different stories in a single day, so going through so many different projects, I might have gotten mixed up.

Anyways, I still presumed the young Ogres to be under my control; I didn't expect there'd be an issue. If necessary, I will edit/delete my posts. First, I'll wait for Angel's opinion, as Angel is also involved, and is the best source to clarify and correct the current situation. Of course, feel welcome to provide your own solution to this current issue of the RP.

I think my main issue is that, in my own stories, I will sometimes have up to a dozen or so named characters/main characters fighting, sometimes even in three-way faction-based combat. I am used to this kind of storytelling, so naturally I project my experiences into RPing, but it looks like I have to slow down.



Seerek, I have just added three posts of a scenario for Haven in Ashes to Ashes. Read it over when you have the time, and then, if you feel like it, we can go from there. Or, the situation can be left behind for now and dealt with later. Tell me what you think; we can start a Haven-centric RP whenever you feel ready.

So I might get Dragon Age Origins, just to play it and see how those choices have an impact on Inquisition.

For example, I read that it's possible to have one of two characters (Logan and Alistair I think their names were) show up in place of Stroud, depending on your choices. I'm aware I could just go on Dragon Age Keep and make them alive in the World State, which I have considered, but that would be pointless as I would have no connection to those characters any more than I would be inclined to care about Stroud or Hawke.

I recommend getting DA: O simply because it is a great storyline. The Banter is hilarious, Sten has some of the funniest dialogue in the game.

No edits or deletion of posts will be necessary. Never delete a post, I'd hate to think that someone had gone through all that effort just to have it all taken away! I think that the issue here is that you gave permission for others to use the ogres, quoted here:

Azigarath said :
(( Since the five young Ogres are part of my introduction, as well as the small group of nameless adventurers, I offer permission for anyone to do anything they want to the young Ogres and the adventurers during occurring RPing ))


And then decided on the actions of the ogres yourself later on. I think the confusion comes in that you imagined this to be a loaning off of the characters, but in roleplaying when permission is given to use other characters, you are also relinquishing ownership of them characters. This is generally due to combat in roleplays, where if I were to give permission for players to auto-hit a group of bandits (as in, allow them to land a hit on a bandit without giving me the chance to post a counter-attack/dodge,) it lets them have free reign and if I don't give permission then I am allowed to respond with my own countermoves- which is generally reserved for 'boss fights' for lack of a better term.


Still, there was no way for you to know any of that and I think it'd be quite a hassle for us to go through with editing our posts. So we'll just say things happened how you described them in your post and move on from there. If my explanation was subpar/confusing, do let me know and I'll try to better explain myself
