Actually, I have another quick question ***.

Do the Romans control any land on the Southern Continent? You said it was based off of Africa, and the Romans did control the northern coast of Africa at one point. I'm just wondering because that will affect the Inquisition's decision to expand there.

I did not plan the Romans having territory in the Southern Continent at the current time; they used to be a much larger empire, but climate change and aggressive Southerner tribal warriors drove them out of the continent. Now, all that's left are the ruined fortresses, outposts and cities of the former empire. I suppose the Inquisition could reuse or rebuild with what is left, but how they do so is up to you.

Edit: I've always had problems with my username. *sigh*

As of now? No, I am not. Too many of the people aren't here and I don't have the energy to run anything at the moment. Hell, I hardly have the energy to post on stuff that isn't mine, hence the reason I haven't made any bios for anything recently. Done in by the dubious doings of destiny.

Original message details are unavailable.
The expedition will have four phases, all of which can be described however you want to:

1. Leaving Pharaoh's lands and venturing through Roman territory, which may have up to several dozen Roman auxiliaries and legionnaires lying in ambush to attack the caravan, upon which Gwen must take command and fight
2. Passing through the Crusader States, which are safe and will provide lodging and safety
3. Journeying through the deserts and then arriving at the sultanate; desert bandits, slavers and wild animals of any era according to the locale's environment may attack the caravan
4. Luther paying Gwen, heading home, and then Gwen meeting Glenn

Just for confirmation - did you want me to post this all in one hit, or in four stages so "unforeseen complications" (events outside of my control) can arise?

I just imagined the Romans returning to the Southern Continent to reclaim their lands. After a long march, their soldiers walk up to one of their many forts, ready to resettle it...

...only for a bunch of Inquisition soldiers to appear on the wall and start yelling insults of them. Insults I won't repeat, lest I risk invoking the wrath of Inferi. Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.

West,
You are welcome to go through those phases however you want, but I'd suggest going through them one at a time, unless you prefer Gwen to defend Luther's warehouse, or disobey him in some manner. If you'd like me to RP with you as a character or villain, or implement subplots/sidequests, I can do that to, but I thought it was coolest to just let individual users do the opening quests however they wanted to? Alternatively, I can RP as Luther and his caravan, whereas you RP as Gwen and just tag along, or maybe you have any other ideas?

Capt,
Ha! The Romans going through that would be quite funny, and if you'd like, we can do something like that. After several centuries of being driven out of the Southern Continent, the Romans return, only to notice the Inquisiton already there, with a very powerful Cambion on the loose amidst hostile Southerner tribes! We can get it going if you're OK with it, though all that extra content may make the opening quest rather long.
