If they're coming from a different direction it might be possible, but you have given no indication that they're aware of how to fight and kill undead to begin with.


They're coming from the Merckburger Fen, which is on the Anselmnian Border. To be honest, my original idea was for them to encounter the border guards patrolling against 'infiltrators from Anselm, present their documents and papers saying they're crossing over legally, and then hear about the undead plague from them. Is that possible?

Edit: As for how they know how to fight and kill undead, aren't there legends saying that Fire and White Magic can kill them?

Edit 2: And complete destruction of the body?

They are much more likely to hear the rumors from peasants. Border guards wouldn't detail the issues Wyzkia is dealing with to Anselmians.

Fire is indeed said to kill them, and there are special white magic spells that can help, though not all white magic can do it.

However, there is a difference between hearing stories and being faced with the walking corpse of what have until quite recently obviously been humans. Even well trained mages would struggle against the implications.

So if you want them to run into low-rank undead and kill them on the way sure, but it wouldn't be very easy. Setting them on fire entirely is tough, as is completely destroying their bodies, so keep that in mind.

There are of course other things that can be used when dealing with undead, but it will of course be up to them to make their preparations. Holy gold and silver helps, and they can not easily cross over running water.

And well trained mages can of course dispatch them more easily, but that requires training on how to fight against necromancy spells.

I see. Note that Daniel and Leon are trained Mages, as indicated in their character sheets. Remember, they can afford tutors.

Which is not particularly relevant to the situation at hand I'm afraid. I do remember that they're trained mages, however I do also remember that Daniel is dabbling in several fields, including in fire magic which would help, while Leon mostly deals with light magic, which could help. But neither were trained in the white magic needed to analyze and break the spells of necromancers, nor would they have a lot of knowledge about necromancy itself and how it works.

Ah, I see. So they'd only have the equivalent of 'Zombie Movie Cliches'?

Well, if they're not prepared, and especially considering their lack of experience, they'd probably be left with what folk tales say about them,

Understandable. I'll make sure to have them exert effort in their encounter once I write it, then.

I've been thinking about how to move the action with the group of Archbishops forward. Those who want to take part in helping Pride and Alexei free Meta should say so here, so that we don't waste time on a series of short posts with Pride asking the same question ICly, and we'll move.

As for those who don't want to, that's perfectly understandable, I have a few other ideas planned so we'll find something else for them to do xD

I haven’t had the opportunity to sit down and read beyond a skim, but I was planning to have Auryon offer to help.

Forgot to mention it here - but a few days ago was the third year anniversary of this thread. And in the end of June we'll mark four years since the first thread, and the roleplay itself, was launched.

I have absolutely no idea when three years passed to be honest, but it's quite a thing
