I intend to devote next week to the prelude of the game; with the first sequence starting the week after that.

I should honestly hope to get two or three more players if possible. With any luck the prelude will attract someones eye. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday are the days to look out for these three posts which will set up the main conflicts of the game.

I will accept players even after that; though ideally anyone who joins in the middle of a sequence ought to start as an initiate. (Not mandatory, it would just be easier to integrate you into the game if you are a new recruit.).

Between the sequences there will be time for anyone to jump (Or fall), to your chosen rank.

 

I never expected a strong showing; and set up the plot with the hope of three or four players.
May not have gone forward with only one, but two can get us a good start. Hopefully together we can attract more players by doing a good game.
With that said if all parties are still interested I intend to start sequence one on Monday.
From there on I intend weekly updates.

Go for it

 

I recently got a new job, which will probably throw my schedule through a loop for a few weeks at least.
I intended to get my next big update ready for this week, but with this (And the fact that we aren't as far into the story as I would like for said update), I will delay it for at least one week.
I will still try to get some minor updates together to move things along in the meantime.

 

Don't worry, I am enjoying the game a lot and won't go anywhere. Rumors have it we catched some interest.

 

I might have one CS in the process of being confirmed. Haven't heard from him in a couple days, but we are always accepting new players. So anyone else is free to join if they like.

 

Finally got the next update up.

 

I apologize for the delay in the next update. I've had trouble managing my time schedule the last couple weeks and all my RPG's have suffered because of it.
Hopefully I can get it up tomorrow or the next day.

I go back to college at the end of this week so who knows what will happen after that.

 

I caught a cold, which is clouding my mind. So I'll be delaying the next update to late next week some time.

 

Kröger is finally dead!

We might not be the boards biggest game or it's fastest moving game, but I wanted to express that this game emulated perfectly the Assassin's Creed feel of the older games. I enjoy it a lot.

Thanks @ConservativeJedi321 for keeping up the great work!

 

I look forward to introducing my character to you all!

 

A very well done post @DarkLordoftheFins.
I am eager to draft the next update, which will certainly be done later this week.
Slow and steady wins the race, but weekly updates are still ideal. Hard to keep interest if it starts moving slower than that.

 

Finals week is approaching, and I have less time to spend here than I would like.
Expect the next update in a week or so.

 

Finals are over, and I expect to move quickly over the weekend to get things back on a normal schedule.
I have a five hour car ride home tomorrow, but after I rest up I can finish my update and hopefully get back to a weekly schedule. The only conflict being Christmas and New Year but I will cross that bridge when I come to it.

Thank you all for your patience.

 

Ok school hit me like a tone of bricks. I knew I had a heavy schedule but I underestimate how long it would take me to adjust.
But here is a big update, and things should be picking up from here.

 

Work keeps me busy, but I'm still committed to continuous updates. Weekly where possible.

 

Both of you are free to move to where you like with this update. Get food, get some rest, restock, interact with NPC's or whatever else within reason.

I expect the next update will move us forward a couple months to get you on track for your missions.

@Master Vo'Un'Var, @DarkLordoftheFins

 

Update is up!
A little later than I expected, but I think this storyline has some interesting potential.
