Just a note, but the War Party is nowhere near the current caravan. They're at least a day's travel from Aspen at the moment.

Very much a mad max feel. How are they going to Aspen? I assume up 82? If so they'd pass through Glenwood and would just miss the caravan.

Well, going off the map, they're really only just now getting out of Denver. I'd imagine they'd need to take the highways to get there, though.

That's a long trek. 150+ miles along the highways. Without vehicles it would take several days.

How about that?

I am fine with people using swords but a sword is just that, a sword. The moment it starts becoming an anime is the time I have to step in. If you want to TG me what that thing does then fine, but note that I will most likely take a stand against anything deemed outlandish. Also note that Atlas did not manufacture weapons, and even if they did a sword would be low on the list.

Nation Name: Edean Liyn
Birthplace: Denver, Colorado
Ethnicity: Asian
Age: 38
Pic/Description: Muscular, black hair, black eyes (vacant), tanned, gaunt skin, extremely white teeth (bleached), wears metal exoskeleton that provides minimal defense

Occupation: Engineer

Immunity: None (being high overstimulated immune system)

(OPTIONAL)
Personality: Depressed
Skills: Genius Engineer (genius in general)
Likes: Happiness and peace (and weed)
Dislikes: Nothing
Fears: Nothing (while high/always)

Bio: Being the son of a genius engineer with a serious addiction to marijuana, Donnel Ricken has always wanted to die happy in a world of hate. When his father died due to liver failure, his last words were "I was happy." It was in this intense drugged state that Donnel, believing weed to be his only anti-depressant, constructed an exoskeleton with the sole purpose of supplying him weed through a mask, a caravan that contains a weed farm, a solar panel roof and a weapon fashioned after a potato cannon that launches jars of compressed weed in gas form. This can be used to intoxicate enemies and reduce them to a giggling wreck of their former self. However, due to his constant intoxication, Donnel pays heed to no caution. This allows him to withstand incredible amounts of pain. Despite this, even in his intoxicated state he is relatively clever, and always plans three weeks ahead before performing an act. He is not immune to any of the viruses, however his immune system is overstimulated due to the large amounts of drugs he uses. He prefers to negotiate with others and help those in need.

RP Examples: None

Where should I start?

I can accept a guy going out of his way to keep a stock of weed but this is getting a bit outlandish. I'm no expert but can you even keep marijuana in a gaseous form? The potato cannon is also unlikely and his caravan would likely make him a target for bandits regardless of what was inside. DENIED for the time being.


A vaporizer heats herbal cannabis to 185–210 °C (365–410 °F), which causes the active ingredients to evaporate into a gas without burning any plant material (the boiling point of THC is 157 °C (315 °F). (Wikipedia) So it is possible to get marijuana in gas form.

Post is up. If it's okay with Bei, I made us get to Glenwood all in one post to make up for the fact that I've missed like three days in which probably at least one RP day passed.

It's a fourteen hour walk. You either passed the expedition or never passed them, but in any case it should be getting dark for you guys.

In the IC, everyone's treating the sword as if its an equalivent of that screamer Reaver.

In the post where The Vagrant uses it, it's a 'pure, singing' note.
Gosh :(

The Vagrant's sword's ability has been changed, due to its previous ability being unrealistic and not following with the lore.

This new sword is now extremely sharp. It can cut through flesh, bone and thin, low-quality Armour.

So are you going to edit your message about it making a tune sound and having an eye? If you want/ if it makes it easier you could have the sound just be a whistle he used to get our attention. Just be sure to be get ride of the eye thing, its kinda weird.
