    Hai there! If you clicked on this, you're definitely interested in the final server event of the year!

    Oblivion Christmas
    6034073

    It is dark times and the evil overlord Blandarth has taken Santa Claus hostage in a well known fortress. It is your destiny to slay Blandarth, save Santa and restore peace to the world, making sure all children doth receive their Christmas presents!

    Starring: Cherryhern-The Castle Elder
    Blandarth: The Evil overlord

    ...and um, that's it so far!

    What we need are:
    3 heroes: An archer, a chanter and a tank.
    At LEAST 5 evil henchmen.
    1 Powerful evil wizard
    2 Neutral Characters

    Heroes will have the opportunity to spawn 1 snowman each to help them on their quest. Each hero has 3 lives. So die twice and you're out of the event. Ciao! Each hero has different abilities and given different items. You MUST work as a team in order to win.

    Henchmen will be able to respawn 3 times in an attempt to slow/stop the heroes. They will be given weapons etc. Heroes will be given a short script.

    The powerful wizard has access to potions and traps, and do as he/she likes around the castle. However he/she cannot enter the sleeping quarters. The powerful wizard will not respawn.

    The 2 neutral characters will provide as backdrops to the main game, and will provide useful information. The neutral characters will be given 2 different character alias', and a script.

    Blandarth will be given a script.
    Cherryharn will be given a script.

    We're aiming to do this either Thursday 22nd, Friday 23rd, or the week after that at some point.

    So baaasically, state what role you want and what dates you are available over the festive period!

    More info on the event coming soon ;)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 769 ✭✭✭nimrod86


    Oh g'wan then, Sign me up for a hero please!

  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 17,137 Mod ✭✭✭✭cherryghost


    Good stuff!

    As an added incentive, heroes will get a greater bounty for winning. The heroes CAN lose this game. The henchmen, overlord and wizard can also lose the game. If the evil side win, their share of the win is smaller.

    Once it's in the evening I'm usually free.

    I don't mind. Any time after 6pm

    Are you whitelisted on the Boards.ie server? It is a requirement.

    Perfect :D
    P.S I am whitelisted :Gam3babizz (I Know I Know But I Can't Be Arsed Buying Another Account To Change My Name ahah)


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 4,282 Mod ✭✭✭✭deconduo


    I can be a sub for whatever role is needed :)

    Sub for a roll....mmmm hungry


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 17,137 Mod ✭✭✭✭cherryghost


    Right, update time:

    Heroes:
    dreamers75 (leedan11)
    laura-can (jujumushu)
    gavmcg
    nimrod86 (nimrod86)

    Henchmen:
    ronan keane (Gam3babaizz)
    KonFusion (KonFusion)
    Dale Parish (??? :P)
    Igster (Igster)

    Evil Wizard:
    xenon560 (xenon560)

    Neutral:
    killerhitman (killerhitman)


    deconduo will be a sub, though the way it currently lines up, he'll be either a henchman or a neutral. If we have 4 heroes on the night, someone will be switched to either henchmen or neutral.

    Just another update on this, once the neutrals roles have been played, they can follow the heroes on their quest. They can hold heroes items, however they CANNOT carry any weapons or armour.

    Also, for the duration of the event (circa 40 minutes) there are a few rules to point out:
    1. You CANNOT mine or punch things to get your way around the area. Those found doing so will be banned from any further actions on the event. Server admins can decide what to do with the person.
    2. You cannot leave the area whatsoever.

    Just listen and read everything and the entire event will be rather enjoyable :)

    EDIT: For those playing, if they want to get into different skins to reflect a medieval theme on the server that would be awesome!

    just so you know my mc name is killerhitman858


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,317 ✭✭✭gavmcg92


    First off ... Dale is Cnc95fan :P

    Secondly ... I think for this task we could use the new mob disguise to our benifit here. Have admin (or bland on his own) change into something more threatening, like a giant, rather than his own skin.

    We can also use the new name prefix thing in order to outline who the heros are, what are their roles etc.

    Really looking forward to this!

    Ok first thing is first, the Henchmen, wizard and evil overlord must be on a half hour before the event starts. They need to know the layout of the place.
