Hey Erbis, I'll be impressed if you knew that Taliesin was the Merlin at King Arthurs court and Bess didn't just tell you.

Exams are on the horizon of next week for me, and although I would very dearly like to post something, I can't make any promises that you'll see anything from me over the next couple of weeks.

We feel for you Erin!
Go and join the rat race! Come back to us once you've slept it off. We shall await your return!

Ok. Not happy with the new henchman Apostol. I figured we'd make him a little crazy to make things interesting, but schizo is just not working for me. That and my last post ran away from me a little bit. Dunno.
Sorry erbis. Good idea. But I just dont do a good gollum character.
Anyone else have any ideas?

I like the post. You'll do wonders with Apostil, almost nothing is out of line for him. I can think of a post already so I'll work on it.

I don't think we've discussed where we want our characters to end up yet. And I mean this literally. As in; do we have any idea where the other 'safe houses' that we will be staying at are. I vaguely remember something about Gwyn's relatives. Vaguely.
Or was that Gwyn's summer plans? Not quite sure anymore.
But I think it would be nice if we chartered out our destination plans. Just so we have something to refer back to. This doesn't mean our movement is definite. Merely an outline. Never thought I'd be the organized one.
Lemme know what you guys think.
Oh, and keep your sarcasm to yourself. You know who you are.

In the time line it's only been a couple of days since we left Hogwarts. Believe it or not. I was planning to do a post, after a couple people posted, where Gwyn's dad comes back from Hogwarts with news from Dumbledore. We are going to Antwerp, Belgium. Riddle is still there according to Dumbledores' contacts. Giles has been spotted to and we can do a safe house when we get the word to go. We can leave from Gwyn's place after his dad fills us in or go to Hogwarts and leave from there after a final word from Dumbledore. Anyone can go ahead and do the posts if they like and work it what ever way they want. I was thinking of Antwerp because the port area had a lot of derelict and damaged buildings after the war. Dark, dank, damaged, derelict and dirty, just the place Riddle would thrive in. We were going to be travelling under the pretence of studying muggle and wizard history/construction as part of our seventh year requirements to Grad Hogwarts The relatives came up when Gwyn and Megan were going to spend the summer together and travel.

We're currently in a place where we can go a couple of differant wqys. I know Erin was planning something with the amulet, or did I hear wrong? You can still go through with whatever you were planning if you want and we can just leave the encounter with Apostol how it is, or if you want you can run with it. Blah and I didn't mean to force a story-line turn by having us fight Apostol if not everyone wanted that yet so the ball is in your court now.

Whoo! Postfest! *applauds* Well, the idea I had for the amulet was used when Gwyn shot a couple jinxes at Adrian and the amulet simply absorbed them. I thought we could use that to expose the amulet then and there, but Matt, you said you wanted to wait until we've left Gwyn's place. By the look of things with our current Giles/Apostol situation at St. Mungos, this might be sooner than we intended if we end up with a duel on our hands. If we did, should we stand and fight, or just pop into the chamber? (I'm sure Riddle would find this information very interesting.) This is just a side note, but I'm not sure anyone other than Bess has mentioned anything about the design their ring has taken on. I thought about bringing it up in my last couple posts, but I'm still thinking about what it should be... And just another aside, as the rings do have some kind of minor healing ability, Megan's arm probably won't hurt for the next several days as the healer told her.

Crap! I forgot about that! Thanks Erin!
Also. I figure we have two separate ways to go (of course there are more, but these are big ones).
One: Duel with Giles/Apostol and get driven off by crazy tattooed psychopathness. Not including the chamber we'd have to run off somewhere, without all our stuff. Whatever that stuff is. But not to worry, I'm sure them Durmstrang boys have survival mottos. Kinda like the boy scouts: be prepared. Only for them its probably: be prepared to kill. In all fairness Papa Kevy (yes thats what were calling him now) did tell the kids not to leave the house till he got back. Adrian we blame you.
Two: Head back to the Allardyce place and plan things out like good little students and eventually leave on our own time. Which sounds like a lot of feet dragging to post, but it works. But of course the house does make our presence harder to track and thats just boring. Unless of course Riddle somehow got the password to the house. Im sure he's looking for it. Since the family is part of the order and all... I think.

Hmmmm well if you want a family crest, you can go to www.houseofnames.com/ As long as your characters last name is a "real" last name it should have a crest to go along with it, but you don't have to use that one of course. You can try looking up other names for crest ideas too. If we do do a duel we can have that ending up with us staying away from the house for a while. Also a duel could give Adrian a chance to reveal more and when they get away then we can reveal the amulet, it can still take us some time to get it off even when we know so there's still options there.

Giles and his dog didn't know who they passed in the hall and it wouldn't take them long to figure it out. They wouldn't know exactly who they were until Riddle figured it out himself from their description. I'd like to do a fire fight but I don't think Giles would risk it without consulting Riddle. If they had a fire fight now that would make their searching for the sword very risky. Because of that Dumbledore and papa Kevy wouldn't allow them to continue. On the other hand we might recognise Giles. We would then be able to link him to Riddle and then know for certain Riddle was involved in Dippet's death and that he has the sword.
Riddle only a few years older than us might like to keep his treasures close at hand. If we discovered this it would give us a real chance to find the sword.
A fire fight could take place on their first night away. Papa Kevy has word from Dumbledore and that could put them in a situation where they end up in a fire fight that night. It could be a fire fight because we trespassed and got to close and not because of who we are. I will take them out of the house and in harms way no matter what; in my next post.
I'll do a post but I'll wait until I know which way the rest of you want to go.

Sounds good! I was just worried about our characters getting stuck laying around the house again. Go for it.

I'm pretty sure we can avoid another batch of filler posts. If we do recongnise Giles, then it may give us more initiative to get going more quickly, as this would be a sure sign that Riddle is on the move.

Seeing as everyone here was in the old potter thread (and considering the old ooc looks like all spam), im just going to throw this in here. Our old potter thread is actually close to an end. Which is part of the reason it was abandoned. There are more Im sure, but whatever. Anyone interested in completing it? Can't think of a thread Ive ever been in that actually had an ending to the story. Sadly. Just a suggestion.
Also. If anyone else wants to write Riddle. Go for it. I seem to have stolen our biggest canon NPC and i already hate writing character bios. Much less character bios for those with chaotic evil alignments. Surprisingly dont have any of those and Im not looking to start.

I'm all for completing the old Potter thread. Come to think of it I can only remember one thread that came to an end. We were all such reliable posters, way back when, and when it was over no one knew what to do with the characters. Should we start something new but it certainly would not be as good as we had or should we simply retire them and start fresh. We did neither.
