are we allowed to have multiple characters? for example, i have a character in mind, a paladin, who has two bumbling goblin companions, for a bit of comic relief. is that okay? or do i have to ditch the goblins?

Sure, pretty much everyone has multiple characters.

One issue - if you are having goblins, try and make sure they 'fit' with the Lego Castle world (give them an association or connection with the canon of any sort). This is done to keep a feeling of Legoism.

Hey, smcginnis, if that thing about Quolde and the royal blood hasn't finished yet. You Quolde could get in contact with my character! He's of royal blood, sorta...

Well.... If you've finished the topic yet, you'll know Quolde is on the run.... But a small, coastal village might just be the perfect place to hide! And sure. If I can, I'll have him send Rolyn to Leonopolis; possibly carrying the stone. He'll also be able to ask the king for permission to keep the village there. Oh, and I'd appreciate it if you posted something about Rolyn's speech patterns and personality before I did.

Though as I'm a better writer now, I can see that the stone is a stupid plot device; so maybe something'll go wrong with it.

Kewl char. I think that's our first Crownie.... oddly enough. So, who are the Crown Knights allied with? KK1/Bulls, BFs, BKs? Or maybe the (so far apparently evil) Crusaders?

Hmm... probably better to just let it plan itself out in the thread....

Okay! It would be good if Quolde came to the village! It would help get my characters into the story, but I'd kinda like to do his first post... I only have to read 2 more pages!

hey Lord Tyler II, would you mind if I had a character meet you on the beach? If so cool! If not, I won't be crushed.

Character's Name: Crafton
Character's Age: 68
Character’s Race: Human
Character’s Class: Paladin
Character’s Alignment: Lawful Good
Character's Background: Crafton was once the loyal protector and teacher of King Leo’s young son, Prince Ardain. But his happy life as a respected member of the king’s court was all gone one day… Crafton was taking the boy on a hunting expedition, along with some of his trusted friends. Suddenly, they were attacked, and Crafton was knocked down and disarmed, caught by surprise. The attackers were Crusaders. The attacking party’s leader picked up Crafton’s sword, and started towards Ardain. Crafton struggled to get up, but it was too late. The shrill scream of Ardain stirred up a fire within Crafton. He got up, picked up one of his dead friend’s swords, and exacted revenge on all of them, but when he started towards their leader, he grabbed Ardain’s crossbow and fired a bolt at Crafton, hitting him in the shoulder, and he fainted. When King Leo sent out a search party, they found Ardain dead by his blade, and the prince’s crossbow bolt in his shoulder. The enraged and grieved king issued a huge reward on Crafton, and he was on the run ever since.
Character's Faction: None, ever since the incident.
Character's Place in Hierarchy: Innocent Paladin, but claimed as a vicious murderer.
Character's Equipment: His holy sword, now dubbed “Ardain’s Revenge”, chain mail armor, a grey cape, and several various potions. And you can't forget gold.
Other Information: He has two goblin companions, Greenback and Dewbrain, in direct violation of the Order’s paladin laws. He believes in true good, not what laws say are good.
Character's Looks: As a minifig, he has the Mathias head, gray short male hair, a grey cape, the grey Viking torso with chainmail and a crossbelt, armored legs, black gloves, and light gray arms.

Characters’ Names: Greenback and Dewbrain
Characters’ Ages: ???
Characters’ Race: Goblin
Characters’ Classes: Both are fighters
Characters’ Alignments: Chaotic Good
Characters’ Backgrounds: Greenback and Dewbrain are, quite possibly, the two stupidest beings on this earth. While other goblins are building elaborate and creative things, these two struggle to fix their own breakfast in cooperation. Which explains why the goblin king got sick of it and kicked them out of the cave. They had hardly gone 10 feet into the woods before they started arguing and drew the attention of a wolf. Naturally, the pair started arguing about whose fault it was. Crafton heard their bickering and rescued the two. They have followed him as their friend ever since.
Characters’ Faction: Formerly Goblin, ‘til they got kicked out.
Characters’ Places in Hierarchy: They’re goblins, and are an “illegal’s” companions. Take a wild guess.
Characters’ Equipment: They both carry partly rusty scimitars and shields, and somewhat tattered leather armor.
Other Information: Dewbrain is the slightly smarter of the two, but he’s still stupid as rocks.
Characters’ Looks: They look like all goblins: tan skinned, short, and ugly.

Tell me if they pass, and then I'll start RP-ing.

Alright, I'll get working on a post about Quolde.

I do have something to say about the Bulls. If you want to make Cedric a character, doodstormer, he's not their leader. They are a law-abiding territory, ruled by their own lords/governers/whatever. The main leader of theirs lives in a castle, or possibly even at Leo's court. If you wish, you can make Cedric a rogue lord, a sort of robber baron, but please don't make him lord of all the Bulls. Their population is equal to many other factions; and for Cedric to not be among a band of fifteen or so Bulls on the beach, at the edge of their lands, wouldn't make him a coward.

Sorry if this post sounded a little rant-ish, but I needed to get my point across. *peace*

Sorry... are the bulls enemies of the vikings? and would vikings go for a guy with a huge bounty on his head?

That, you can decide for yourself. Although, I would say it'd be kinda silly for a (relatively tiny) band of Vikings to land in Bull territory if they're enemies.

As for the bounty, I'd say many vikings would; but you'll have to as Lord Tyler II about these particular ones, as they belong to him.
