Well done again!

A few spelling errors...

Built many centuries ago by the combined races, including the now-extinct dwarves, it had taken hundreds of years to construct and was the Great marvel of all the lands. It was to be the Capitol city in a new era of piece and co-operation between the Silver Kingdoms and hence the foremost architects and designers of all the races had combined their talents and skills to design it. The Fables+ of all the factions had funded it and engineers of every species had worked together to build it with the finest materials available. Finally, the greatest of all the mages from every land cast mighty spells and charms over it to protect it against harm and ensure it would ever be the wonder of the world.

Hmm.
Not me! Not me!
I'm bribing you elsewhere for a much different role!
I nominate my old brother Sorrow A!
(We've cloned him many times, this is the second try. The original...you don't REALLY want to know, do you?)

Hello LordotNight, not seen you here b4. Welcome to the party, and my thread(s) in particular! (see my sig for my other stories)

You can put yourself forward for the Ranger leader role this chapter, or you can suggest another character here or in the other thread. Of course, bribes are accepted!! Very Happy

Duke, thanks for the spellos! Corrected.

Ingrothechundyer. Your nomination noted. Mmmm, I don't have you anywhere in here yet do I? Laughing

Muaddib: I am anticipating "heavy casualties" as this story gets going! I like your little wheely thing character, so it is unlikely to meet its demise (until near the end, when there will likely be mass deaths) though if someone bribes me... Wink

I.Master: I am watching the bidding carefully. I must say, I quite like the idea of a 'toady', but I should follow my own 'greed' ruling. Of course, there will be other characters you could be a toady to, but Phang would be ideal. Mmm.

Everyone: This story is currently building up momentum, and I am introducing characters as I go. When I am in work (and get time) I am going to print out the Membership list and pick characters from that. Members of IF who post more frequently will tend to get more major characters. People who read and coment/vote on my stories will also be likely given more major roles. And of course, people who pay me will feature highly as well!! Very Happy

This storygame has been nominated for SGotM (November) by our very own wheely toy; Muaddib, so please stop by and vote for it once voting starts!! Very Happy

I think this SG will work well in its own thread, and I am considering retracting my nomination acceptance for Narg, as I am quite happy with that story where it is.

Thank-you for reading, and any plot or character ideas welcome!!

Hmm... Squad Leader Stoat.

Captain Stoat...

Generalissimo Stoat...

Her Excellency, Intergalactic Empress Stoat!

I knew I should have bid more on the 'annoying talking animal...'

I vote Smee.

It's now a weird name for a person such as The Powers That Be (no offense) and fits into the storyline and sounds like a name.

I wonder, what's Smee's real name? Could it be Smee? Shocked

I wonder... Cool

Okay, any more nominations or names? I will put a poll up soon.

So far we have:

Dean
Shady Stoat
Lord of the Night.

Smee is already busy having his limbs crushed and eyes gouged out I am afraid Author!

It's not the dying in lingering agony that I mind! It's just the idea of me being in a position of responsibility! *shudder*

Okay, the poll for who should be the squad leader to go with Evil Homer and co. is up. Remember, this mission is to intercept the extremely evil Phang and company, so there is a chance of casualties or, even worse, capture! Shocked

Vote away. I will give it until Sunday or Monday, depending upon the number of votes and how busy I am over the weekend. Then we will see episode 3, with the likely addition of Key the Chamber Pot, with the way bidding is going over in the Market-place!

I was inclined to vote for someone who didn't want the position, its more fun. I voted for Dean, and although he probably won't even see this thread...damn, I ran out of arguments. Sad

Okay, I think the voting is closed, and the whole sordid 'chamber pot' bidding escapade has now closed over in the market, so I am going to start writing the next chapter.

If inspiration comes to me this should be up anytime, the best being today the latest probably Tuesday. My work keeps getting in the way of my escapist life here. Mad

<Moved to its own thread>

Phheew!! That took a bit of doing I can tell you, what with all this Chamber pot stuff and all the rest.

Anyway, initial contact has been made, and the result is a draw, but Phang is through and heading for the Fort at Cra-yon.

What should Homer do now? Try and rush to the fort and warn them? Gather the wounded and recover? Something else?
Comments and suggestion please, and don’t forget, any character suggestions for you or others; this has a way to run yet!!!

Within an hour of accepting the mission the band, sorry, merry band of intrepid heroes filed out of the rear doors of the fort. It had been decided they would loop around to avoid the besieging hordes of.

Of what?

And what happened to the chamber pot? Surely such a dignified and powerful artifact as that could not be destroyed so easily.

Anyway, gather what forces you can, EH, and head for the fort. Hopefully Phang is weakened, and you can probably catch up to her slug without having to rush.

Hey, I didn't make it in!
Wah.
Oh well, we can always try again later.
And a slug that goes fast...okay.
And chamber pots deflecting spells is rather odd...
