The LP has started, but due to complete lack of interest on GB, i have moved it [url="http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=81201.0"]here.[/url]

I would post it here aswell, but due to image inserting commands beign disabled, it would require too much clicking from the readers.

Love & Regards.

not really sure, what this is, but sounds interesting. maybe you can do a deeper explanation of what and how this will work out, whats needed to make it work out and stuff like that?

Stworca · Post by **Stworca** » Sat Mar 19, 2011 4:54 pm

Let's Play is a walkthrough of a game. In this case a text+image LP, a roleplaying one too.

What does that mean? It means, that i'm going to play the game as if i was the bhaalspawn, and post his (my) actions, with a few screenshots here and there.
I've added a small twist of Bhaalspawn beign a bit..

..well, just read the first non-diary part of the LP, and you'll know.

Interactive LP means that people who decide to join will also have characteirs of theirs, and have some dialogue options with the bhaalspawn, and potentially some decisions to make.

Monks · Post by **Monks** » Sat Mar 19, 2011 5:04 pm

well answered a bit, but not really how this will be done (i have abselutly zero experience with this), but im willing to give it a shot, as it sounds refreshing.

anyways the way i understand it, its pretty much a walktrough, of your playtrough that exact game, with "us" haveing a say in some roleplay matter?

Stworca · Post by **Stworca** » Sat Mar 19, 2011 7:47 pm

Yes. But i'll ask most for making the decisions much earlier than they occur. For example, it barely started, but if you were to join i would ask about what your characters take is on Shadow Thieves and Vampires, or should we perhaps look for a third way.

Third way? Yes, i can mod the game, as you probably saw from the initial dialogue with Imoen.

Well Stworca,

I am going to let my total ignorance show here. What does AAR/LP stand for? I am completely clueless!

Monks · Post by **Monks** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 3:58 am

well im fresh. "my" char would be.

Female half elf, totemic druid, named Monksine

LP is a Let's Play. AAR is an After Action Report.

I've explained what LP is about a few posts above.

well im fresh. "my" char would be.

Female half elf, totemic druid, named Monksine

Create the character, export it and send the file to stworca@hotmail.com
Or write down more than you did so far.

I'll replace Jaheira with your character, so that there is initial dialogue possible.

Have you read the dialogue with Immy yet?

Monks · Post by **Monks** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 4:26 am

immy is short of imoen? or something else?

Stworca · Post by **Stworca** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 4:35 am

Yes, Imoen.

cute

well with that attitude, your gonna "love" the roleplaying there is with my char

Stworca · Post by **Stworca** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 6:44 am

An active co-roleplay?

Now that would be something

I didn't really plan on having this active members, but since i wrote the dialogue options with immy in 5 minutes, i like improvisation.

If we are to co-roleplay i'll need your MSN or other messenger (if you don't have one, get it)

If you're not up to an active co-roleplay, but instead your character following the lead - i'll just ask a few questions, and probably go through initial dialogue.

Choice is yours .

Monks · Post by **Monks** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 6:55 am

not exactly active co-play, but she has some opinions, a "minor" side quest, and a minor tweak combat wise. she will follow your lead, to some extent. she might leave you, or directly deside to attack you. depending on some choices you make, you might be able to figure it out a little taking her class into account.

if you want i can make make a word/notepad document with everything in it

Stworca · Post by **Stworca** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 6:59 am

Not really. It's not a playthrough for me, it's a playthrough for the readers.

Thus there can be no what if's, if you know what i mean.

But you can send the document nonetheless.. When you'll be sending the character file, and portraits

Monks · Post by **Monks** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 7:03 am

was more meant as a guidline for how she will react to certain situations (like bodhi and a few other decisions) but if you rather do the msn thing im fresh aswell, although i think timewise it might be a problem for me.

Stworca · Post by **Stworca** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 7:07 am

We have alot of time, the LP is on "hold" until i buy a new laptop. My MSN is the same as my e-mail obviously. I've received your e-mail regarding character, and two things.

1. A portrait would be nice, otherwise i'll just choose a random one from Vanilla. I don't ever bother with these.
2. 8 Int? You should -always- Have x4+1, so either 1, 5, 9, 13 etc. Why? Because mind flayers drain exactly four int per hit. This one int point means life sometimes.

I'm leaving for 30-45 hours today at 5pm, GMT+1 time, but when i return i'll have some time to spare. Send me everything you can think of until then.

Monks · Post by **Monks** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 7:11 am

hmm the mindflay thing, might be wrong but thought they drained 5 int/hit, atleast it does for me (might change with some tweak packs or smthing)
and couldt reliably give her 11 int, and 6 int would just seem stupid "roleplay wise)

thought there where a potrait, anyways choose the blond female elf in greenish outfit from vanilla.

Stworca · Post by **Stworca** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 7:16 am

Well then, think about the initial dialogue. You'll be placed in Jaheira's place. Doors dont have to be locked on a key, and the entire dialogue can be changed from A to Z, no problem.

Send all propositions to e-mail, should we not meet on MSN.

Philos · Post by **Philos** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 10:26 am

I must say that this picques my curiousity. It does sound like a lot of fun. But what would I need to be able to participate. I fear I may not have the sufficient technology to participate.
