LCC-Outlaws Official Faction Thread.

Guys, he's a troll. Block and move on.

Haha, yep. I think it's one of those things a newcomer does, just to make a name for himself or something.

Go back to your igloo Louie! The cold suits you well!

Hello everyone, here is my first free build for October.

Magic Islands advertisement from the current issue of the Roawian Traveler Magazine. The Wolfgang & Partners Travel Agency has special offers that are just right for you!

Inspired by the conversation between Matt and Jimmy.



There is a story including some other closeups too, so please check it out on my Flickr.

Here is the link in Castle MOCs Forum:

What exactly are you using these figs for josdu? It may be better to let the participants know what you are planning before using all of these in a build, as i'm sure each character has its own personal story line and may not be able to attend whatever it is you're building.

Yeah, he's been a bit vague. Like a true Outlaw, he's keeping things close to the chest. Rifirofi and I mentioned to him that our storylines have taken us to Lenfald, so attending a gathering of sorts in the swamplands, the Magic Isle or wherever seems a tad unlikely at the moment...

Well as perhaps you know I've been wanting to unite the outlaws in a Council of sorts but then the Queen messed it up because for one thing Navarre was captured for another she made it possible to unite the outlaws with her as leader. But Navarre is aware of the fact that not too many outlaws wish to follow her because she is acting as though the outlaws were as much her friends as the Loresii! Beside the fact that many outlaws were imprisoned she now intends to send her soldier to invade outlaws territory. Once before we were almost annihilated by not even helping each other. Now is the time to unite in a common destiny before the queen comes and destroys us in a common destruction . Well as I mentioned on Flickr you can fit it into whatever time period you want and just state whether the story line has occurred before or after the committee. But of course it would be Ideal if before the end of October (I hope to/need to have it done by then) all the outlaws attending could have made the circumstances possible for he/she/it to attend.

SSchmidt, I'm not sure whether or not to include you for though I built Silas I'm not sure I trust him that in the middle of the meeting we won't interrupted by the entrance of the queens men so just tell me if you want to be included on the account that Silas tells the queen nothing about it. This is top secret.

Aeridian, ok were are you now because later today I'm going to post the messengers even If they have to go to Lenfel to meet you.

Ferretclaw, ok were are you now because later today I'm going to post the messengers to find out who is for and who is against the queen and then invite the outlaws.

NOTE: I'm asking just them at this moment because I won't make a build inviting every single outlaws .

Right now I'm in the port town of Durrough helping supply and plan an uprising. I'll probably be there for a while, but I haven't worked out all the details yet.

[DrakkVonLego]

Maybe I missed it somewhere, but I was under the impression she is only invading the lands of those who betrayed her clan. I am pretty sure I would have remembered the planned "destruction" of the outlaws! She is avenging everyone who was wronged. As a people of outcasts can you not see why some of us would support her? Were we not just facing a purge designed by the 3 mainland factions? And now when they are being crushed, you seek to rally us to fight for them? I fight for myself and others of my kind: creatures of magic. If siding with the morally ambiguous queen achieves those goals, then I fight with her. At least for the time being. Plus she pays well.

As far as I know (but who am I to claim to be an expert on such things ), the Queen is more than happy to have the enlistment of any outlaws who wish to help her retain her crown and expand her influence throughout Roawia. There are no plans to pillage and destroy the outlaw refuges in the swamps and islands (though I suppose the "every man for himself" mantra could always rear it's head, eh?).

She may be a witch, and a meanie to boot, but I envision the current state of things to be more akin to a reign of gloom and depression, in a way similar to Disney's "Robin Hood" cartoon under Prince John - high taxes, corrupt sheriffs, and general unpleasantness and poverty. (not necessarily burning, murdering and pillaging every town she can get her hands on - though taking hostages to ensure taxes are paid on time would certainly be on the table)

The queen was instituted to give you outlaws a central character to rally around, much like the other factions have with their leaders. You can certainly remain independent, but if you want a chance to become a powerful warlord with a castle and standing army, allying with the queen might not be such a bad option.

[Gavin of Lockwood]

I shall always remain independent of evil tyrants! I, a poor outcast Outlaw from Loreos, was banned for practicing magic for the sole protection of my kingdom. Protecting innocence and the like will always remain my standard. Never will I fall to her foul schemes! I say BURN THE WITCH!

[josdu]

Well AK for one thing the fact that she plans to send her troops into outlaws territory was my invention. If you read my story then you'll see that William Navarre over heard her plan and Gavin+Joshua Navarre escaped on a boat with her soldiers which was headed for outlaws land. Now if she was meant to be a friend and even leader of the outlaws which I realize she could possibly become then she should have been more careful then to have thrown half in prison because now there are only a few outlaws who are pro the queen. Also I'd like to ask is her name really Galainir ? or was that part of her plot to seize control?

[AK_Brickster]

Considering all of the outlaws were at the coronation pretending to be law-abiding citizens, one can hardly fault her for shuffling them down into the prisons along with all of the Lenfels, Garhims, and Loreesi. I mean, would you really expect the guards to believe someone who suddenly claims to be an outlaw only after being captured?

In fact, I believe Burlough simply showed up to the castle, asked that his NPC character be released, and off they went after a promise of loyalty was made. Not so bad on the part of the queen, eh?

As for inventing the motives of the queen and deciding that she's going to invade the outlaw swamps, you probably should try not to do that. This whole story would get awfully chaotic if everyone just started making up their own versions of what the queen's official agenda is, don't you think?

Try to stick with the "official" storyline when interacting with central characters. That way everyone has the same standard that they are basing their own stories off of.

[Aeridian]

Good points AK. Already you've answered some unasked questions of mine. I was wondering what the queen was going to do about the Magic Isles and whatnot.

[josdu]

OK AK you have some point and I had thought of asking you about it but now what? Anyway I won't be able to upload anything today like I was hopping sorry.

[SSchmidt]

Now it is out there and I am not crazy. Galainir is our leader, as I had previously assumed. She does like Outlaws (as AK, one of the KC (and leaders of LCC) has stated) and has no intention of harming them. It was not her fault Outlaws were captured. She wants us to work with her, and join her.

She is our leader gents. She is our Queen. I for one, continue to pledge full loyalty to her.
You don't have to like her, but she IS the queen, whether YOU like it or not

I, for one, like it.

Galainir is not evil, she is simply giving the Outlaws their chance at a new life.

[Aeridian]

Interesting. I can see how that would change some things. But right now, since I have several ties in Lenfald and since they're under attack I'll help them however I can.
So my quarrel isn't necessarily with her, per se, but with her actions against the innocent bystanders, the commoners. She can raid and pillage Loreos as much as she wants though, they have wealthier citizens I hear...

[josdu]

OK now that I have more time I'd like to defend my view point. For one thing I said that I realize that she could become a ruler of the outlaws but I pledge my loyalty to no Monarch! We want representation! Not taxation! Also I said quite clearly in my story that the queen intended to attack the outlaws Fortresses and the ship which Joshua and Gavin were escaping on I clearly stated was with the queen's soldiers headed for the swamplands. Since you commented I thought you had obviously read it, AK, and you did't mention the fact that the queen had stated that she was going to send her soldiers to the outlaws lands, so I thought it not necessary to ask about it. But suppose you still which the queen not to invade than what is it you wish? And as for Galainir being our "Rightful" ruler I think it is pure nonsense! She is just another outlaw trying to seize power using magic! While she's at it, why doesn't she use magic and destroy the whole of Roawia?

[Burlogh]

Just a little addition. If you want anything from the queen, simply ask one of the admins if it fits to the main storyline or not. Though nature of LCC allows huge freedom for us I think noone should start an own side story with Galainir involved. Use her troops in MOCs, kill them or form an alliance, do what you wish but don't try to make your "own Galeinir" with unofficial motivations
