>Brother Lulach mac Cormaic

1. The flora of the surrounding area resembles the Forests of Lower England. While somewhat different than the Scottish Highlands you called home you are able to identify a number of medicinal herbs that seem to grow vicariously in the surrounding forests. there are a number of curious plants that you have never seen be it because they are unique to the island or your lack of knowledge in the subject however is unclear. (Medical herbs identified (3) - (as in 3 types, not 3 individuals))

2. It seems a small majority of the settlers here do adhere to the catholic faith, though you see charms of the norse and gaelic faith spread through the trees in the forest. A small cross erected at the edge of the encampment has been acting as the center of worship for those of the Christian faith. (55% Catholic, 30% Gaelic Pagan,15% Norse Pagan)

Location: Blue Settlement (4494)

>Zuria Yñigo

1/2. You set out across the encampment looking for able bodied men and supplies to further your exploration. While your name hold little weight to these foreigners it is clear that you have purpose. A number of men have bolstered you guards, It is however clear that supplies will be much harder to come by. You get your hands on some of the excess rope the boats held along with 2 empty barrels that once had fresh water inside them. Finding a nearby stream would fill them however carrying around the water would require some beast of burden. (+6 men to you Guard Company(Norse), Rope, and two empty barrels)

>Charles Idicus

1/2. Spending your first few days among the mass of settlers recruiting did not turn out as planned, little too no britons seem to have made the trip here and those that did seem to be more in favor of farming then fighting. Richard is able to recruit a young Norse shieldmaiden, losing his shield to her in the process, she however seems more interested in your brother than the adventure ahead.

Aodh came in with a storm, like so many others, speaking an accented Irish Gaelic, and has picked up a bit of Norse from the various Scandanavians that ended up in the settlement as well.

As such, Aodh lives slightly apart from the rest of theh settlement, but shows up willing and eager to work on most tasks.

Aodh carries with him a bow, a bit ornate and of unusual design; when asked he said it was his grandfather's. He has shown good skill in hitting birds in flight and other game with it, and is able to make his own arrows.

Aodh is a Christian, and wears on him a small bronze celtic cross on a cord around his neck, and has erected a larger cross on the edge of the settlement, praying there in his native tongue on occassion.

Beyond that, Aodh sees much and says little, seeking to learn more Norse - his green eyes did light up when he saw Norse Runes, and has spent much time trying to learn them - in between helping hunt for food and build shelter.

Aodh came in with a storm, like so many others, speaking an accented Irish Gaelic, and has picked up a bit of Norse from the various Scandanavians that ended up in the settlement as well. Keeping a bit to himself as he finds the Norse ways strange but intriguing, the others have given the man some privacy - after all they are strangers in this land as well. As such, Aodh lives slightly apart from the rest of theh settlement, but shows up willing and eager to work on most tasks.

Aodh carries with him a bow, a bit ornate and of unusual design; when asked he said it was his grandfather's. He has shown good skill in hitting birds in flight and other game with it, and is able to make his own arrows.

Aodh is a Christian, and wears on him a small bronze celtic cross on a cord around his neck, and has erected a larger cross on the edge of the settlement, praying there in his native tongue on occassion.

Beyond that, Aodh sees much and says little, seeking to learn more Norse - his green eyes did light up when he saw Norse Runes, and has spent much time trying to learn them - in between helping hunt for food and build shelter.

>Name Dara Mag Uiginn, Saor Bád (Shipwright)

>Character Nationality: Irish?

>Fluff:

The bastard child of a Viking raider and a village fisherwoman, Dara Mag Uiginn never knew his father, though that never bothered him much. He helped his mother at the piers and on the boats for most of his early life, the salt and sharp air hardening his features, and the hard life toughening his body. He was content in life until one afternoon after work. He had been unloading the day's catch when he caught sight of a vessel off the coast. There was something about this ship that stirred something within him, something that he couldn't name at the time. It was a long ship, unlike the crude fishing boats of his village, and though he only saw it from afar, he could tell that it was a graceful craft, ploughing the waves like a farmer ploughs his field, pushing aside the buffeting waves.

After that day, he would take a few hours every night, though his body ached from work, to work on a project of his own. The ship had inspired a feeling of wanderlust in him, the need to know what laid beyond the horizon. For years he bent and shaved a craft, inspired by the distant ship. After six years of work, the vessel was done. No nails held it together, only pine pitch and long wooden pegs, though it was watertight. It was large enough for supplies for a voyage and his own person. The sail was patched together from scraps of old woolen clothes. His masterpiece wrought, he bid farewell to his mother and his friends, and cast off with the fishing boats.

After a long, arduous journey, he arrived on the island, parched and half starved. Though his body ached and his stomach was tight, he had never felt happier. Upon his arrival, he pulled his boat upon the beach and, with his last ounce of strength, built a rudimentary shelter, before collapsing.

2. Skippy's a good gull. It's strange to have a seagull follow me around, since I'm used to them following the ships into and out of port. Perhaps I can teach him a few tricks while I work.

Turning, Aodh blinks, looking at Lulach first with suspicion, then nodding to himself, smiles, speaking in a Gaelic, accented in some way that Lulach does not recognize.

"Ah, I am called Aodh, Mac Domhnall! And yes, we need to give much reverence to the Source of Light, and when I came here with a storm! Hah, blew me right out of the water onto this island. And the people here originally , well, one or two secret followers of the Sacrificed God, but none brave to make His symbol, so of course I put one up. Not that we need it, for He is with us always, around and part of us."

He looks around, blinking, almost surprised by the work of the monastery being constructed. "It would be good to see more of the works to the Light here, yes. I seek help for this one," he says, gesturing to the cross, "As I must hunt to earn my keep, yes? Am a bit alone here," he finishes, a twinge of sadness upon his voice, "And so must keep a place."

>Devanichi Lossivel - (Near Purple)

You spend much of your time traveling Northwards, slowly depleting supplies as you and your men attempt to find anything other than trees. While camping a few days north east of the settlement, while resupplying one of the priests is attacked from beneath the water. his screams wake you from your short nap. Running toward them you notice a large reptilian creature slinking back into the waters its slitted eyes a bright glowing yellow. To your right The priest grasps his now missing arm, his heavy breathing slowly fading. The next few days are spent in the solid ground just south of the marshlands you had previously wandered into. one of those reptilian creatures was killed and hauled in. You've named it an "alligator".

>Zuria Yñigo - (northwest of blue)

1/2. Finding the landmass from memory was harder than you remembered, during a light storm you and your men bail water out of your small vessel. As the rain hardens you spot land and safely get onto shore. Anchoring your ship you set one of the Norse men to guarding the ship as you go to shore to grab supplies and set up camp. When the sky clears you return, noticing the distinct lack of your vessel. A Panic sets in until you see the Norse guard on shore talking to the water. As you approach you see under the smooth tidal wave a face of an old man, his eyes a vibrant blue. His smile widens as he sees you before seemingly becoming apart of the waves, you vessel nicely polished and painted with a greenish-blue lacquer seemingly leeps from the water after he is gone.

As you polish your vessel you get to work trying to get Skippy to do some tricks. By the end of the day, she's looking like she was brand new, and skipyp is doing little twisting aerial dives every time you through a scrap of food into the air.

1 - Ah, the Isles. Hibernia to some, Hybrasil to others, Tir Tairngire to the MacDiadh elders. A place of myth and magic, perfect for a man to become legend.The first thing that comes to Fraigh's mind as he lands on the shore of this hallowed place, however, is that he forgot his spear and shield at home. This is a proper travesty! He must acquire a new spear and shield at once, no warrior is complete without his signature weapons.

2/3 - Three warriors is a paltry showing for any good warband, let alone a proper fianna! The good people of this land are few in number, and have a great many tasks ahead of them, but surely some bold men (or women, if really necessary) from Ulster would love to raise banners for the promise of a new land, and a new Irish kingdom!

4 - Lead the fianna around the borders of the settlement in a customary exploration of the Island. Fraigh is entrusted with the safety of Cnoc Diadh, after all, and he intends to perform admirably. Only when one's house is secure can one leave it, after all.

A few of your servants leave you to take him back to town. The next few days go without a hitch and soon your makeshift pack, emptied of supplies are filled with a variety of herbs, furs, and nicer things. (Lost a Priest, your packs are full of goods, mostly valuable herbs and stones(4 packs of goods)) Other than the Alligator the marshes seem similar to those in england, although the blooming flowers you are unfamiliar with haa certain beauty you never witnessed in your brief time there.

>Zuria Yñigo - (Under the Sea???)

(27) You set sail in your assumably better ship for your final stop, one of the larger islands within the change. As you get out to sea a problem becomes glaringly apparent, you're sinking… Looking about the ship you try and find what is wrong, that is until you look over board. Looking up from the water is the wrinkled old face of whatever thing presented you with this ship. A piercing scream rings through you as you see one you your Norsemen dragged overboard of the ship’s side now only inches above the waves. The last thing you remember is the scaled wet hands of something closing around your neck.

(44) When you awake the sky is noticeably darker, underneath you wet sands part as you stand, your men around you on what you can only guess is some beach. Turning you scream and fall to your knees. A beast not unlike a man with the teeth of a shark stares down at you… one of your men grab you and they begin to run as fast as they can away from the creature. (Well that could have gone better)

>Ryan MacDiadh (North-West of Purple)

Much of that first week is exploring the plantlife and animals of the inner Island. To you east was some lowlands turned marshes that you decide to avoid and head deeper inland. After nearly two week you come to the edge of a deep gorge, most likely were all that lowland water ends up. The lake at the bottom of the gorge is teeming with life, you even saw what looked like a small whale surface in your days of observing it. (Along the way you pick up 3 packs full of herbs and other natural treasures that would go for a good price in the market or be used for something)

>James Godwinson (Near the Purple Settlement)

(62)/(49) - You head deep into the forest looking for your fortune to come walking past, The lands team with more life than even the King’s forest.

Do to the lack of materials good metal is hard to come by but before long a long spear and wooden shield adorn your shoulders. (+Shield and spear, +Ulster Blacksmith: Friendship)

(2)/(42) You wait at the shore awaiting your fellow's arrival but none seem to come, be it that they abandoned the cause or were swallowed by the sea you would not be able to find out for some time. It isn’t until nearly 2 weeks since being here are you able to pull yourself up and get a few new warriors (+Depression: Until a 85+ (raw), -5 to all rolls, +1 Warrior)

(52) With the camps slowly becoming wooden huts and the forest slowly being put at bay replaced by farms you get a sense of the size of the going city. The Southern Lands marked by the beginnings of the Christian monastery and the east and Northern ends being farm lands, while in the center a market of sorts has sprung up.

>Dara Mag Uiginn

(68)/(53) - Do to the abundance of ships do to the recent immigration not many people are looking for new ones built, yet. Though you do find a number of customers who want you to repair the current ships.

The bastard child of a Viking raider and a village fisherwoman, Dara Mag Uiginn never knew his father, though that never bothered him much. He helped his mother at the piers and on the boats for most of his early life, the salt and sharp air hardening his features, and the hard life toughening his body. He was content in life until one afternoon after work. He had been unloading the day's catch when he caught sight of a vessel off the coast. There was something about this ship that stirred something within him, something that he couldn't name at the time. It was a long ship, unlike the crude fishing boats of his village, and though he only saw it from afar, he could tell that it was a graceful craft, ploughing the waves like a farmer ploughs his field, pushing aside the buffeting waves.

After that day, he would take a few hours every night, though his body ached from work, to work on a project of his own. The ship had inspired a feeling of wanderlust in him, the need to know what laid beyond the horizon. For years he bent and shaved a craft, inspired by the distant ship. After six years of work, the vessel was done. No nails held it together, only pine pitch and long wooden pegs, though it was watertight. It was large enough for supplies for a voyage and his own person. The sail was patched together from scraps of old woolen clothes. His masterpiece wrought, he bid farewell to his mother and his friends, and cast off with the fishing boats.

After a long, arduous journey, he arrived on the island, parched and half starved. Though his body ached and his stomach was tight, he had never felt happier. Upon his arrival, he pulled his boat upon the beach and, with his last ounce of strength, built a rudimentary shelter, before collapsing.

>Ryan MacDiadh (North-West of Purple)

>James Godwinson (Near the Purple Settlement)

(14)(43) - You spend most of you time in the forest failing to track the beasts of the forest. Even the regular animals in this forest are quicker than anything in england. The cool spring winds and rain took some time out of your schedule as you turned your furs into a cloak to keep you warm and mask your scent. When the rain stops you get back to tracking the beast… it’s track nowhere to be found it takes you a few days before you find them again. (Progress: 13/100)

>Brother Lulach mac Cormaic (North of the Purple settlement)

(62)/(18) - And so it begins you head North, rumors of a range of mountains being your only hint on what waits for you in the future. (Both You and Aodh are moved outside the settlement)

(53) He wasn’t please with your statement (62/200)

>Aodh Mac Domhnall (North of the Purple settlement)

(93) You collect the finish cloaks and other goods that you had prepared, the three packs loaded down with enough supplies to last the entire Spring and Summer, that is if you could find forage. With all that you had prepare your exploration would be like smooth sailing. (For both you and Brother Lulac, +10 to all exploration rolls until Round 10)

(19) Unfortunately you were so busy saying goodbye and preparing that you would have to just wing it on your explorations destination.

(27)(80) You head into the forest to clear your head and collect yourself, you had come here to accomplish great thing, but had you truly come here to run from the responsibility you had back home. Sadness envelopes you but slowly as the moon rising and the stars begin to shine you come to terms with what you left behind, standing you begin wandering back in the direction of the Settlement. It takes you until nearly sunrise when you see the makeshift houses and budding fields that is the growing settlement. Looking across the field of awakening people framed by the rising sun you see a creature its long purple feathers blending in with the shades of the morning sky, twisting it seems to disappear into the morning light.

(52)(40) With a nights rest you begin to find your way into the budding community, while many of the people here were of Irish descent nearly half were a mixture of the other cultures present in the british isles. Decidedly you focus on those that share your native tongue and begin proposing that a city wall would be a great boon to the cities development many are not looking forward to the labor. A quarry on the other hand… (+City Leader 13/200) (+ Quarry 10/100 - I recommend working with the priests in the area they may be of use in helping this go by quicker) (+ Wall 0/150)

>Dara Mag Uiginn

(58)/(24) - Few people could really call themselves leaders here in the settlement however you are able to find yourself a client, while only semi-permanent, an Old Norse Warrior has traded in a large portion of his wealth and purchased a large amount of the raw timber being produced. He want to create a trade caravan that could serve as transport and trade between the three settlements, It would take months to complete all the ships he needs alone but he would pay well and be a good connection to have (Progress: 0/600 - Building trade fleet, rewards are periodic not just on completion)

(37) Upon arriving to the settlement you begin to tell the people about your brief time in the blue colony not but a few days travel from here. The information is gobbled up and soon you have a number of new recruits who join you. (+4 Warriors)

(52) You notice on your travels here that this settlements home islands was far larger than that which you briefly called home. It may take someone years to explore that small island but it would take centuries for this one. The only known really interesting spots were the Mountains to the North-east and a few settlers who got here from the the Northern largest Island. They said that whatever it is that permeates through the creatures here on the islands is nearly tangible there, it was honestly uncomfortable.

(55) You spend much of the next few weeks foresting yourself and area a short journey from the Settlement. In the clearing the Fallen timbers lay stack there limbs keeping you kiln warm through these rainy days. The timber could be processed into lumber and soon you would have yourself a cozy little cottage. (Sizeable Clearing 7/20)

(99) Whenever you aren’t working you are cooking, a passion of yours since coming to the island. Grinding the grain and painstakingly hand-crafting the dough making that crisp bread all the sweeter. As you work slows down one day you notice something in your kiln near the bread. Worried that some animal may have wandered in and died you go over and see what seems to be some tiny ill proportioned human/animal hybrid munching away on our food. Intrigued you tried and inspect the creature but before you get to close it eyes comically widen as it stares at you before seemingly becoming one with the air. (+Discovery: Sprite - what it is or what it can do are unknown - also lots of delicious baguettes from one of your bags)

(1) A horrible tragedy really, absolutely horrible… that night after a long day of training the screams of your men are heard in your tent as you walk outside horror grips you, the beast from before seems to have found friends. There slow movements are deliberate as the massacre your sleeping men. Taking a nearby torch you charge at the beast, it teeth dripping with the flesh of presumably your men. The flaming torch sears the beasts skin on contact before it lunges for you, the horns of retreat are sounded and you along with your men run for the hills.

>Name Dara Mag Uiginn, Saor Bád (Shipwright)

>Character Nationality: Irish?

>Fluff:

The bastard child of a Viking raider and a village fisherwoman, Dara Mag Uiginn never knew his father, though that never bothered him much. He helped his mother at the piers and on the boats for most of his early life, the salt and sharp air hardening his features, and the hard life toughening his body. He was content in life until one afternoon after work. He had been unloading the day's catch when he caught sight of a vessel off the coast. There was something about this ship that stirred something within him, something that he couldn't name at the time. It was a long ship, unlike the crude fishing boats of his village, and though he only saw it from afar, he could tell that it was a graceful craft, ploughing the waves like a farmer ploughs his field, pushing aside the buffeting waves.

After that day, he would take a few hours every night, though his body ached from work, to work on a project of his own. The ship had inspired a feeling of wanderlust in him, the need to know what laid beyond the horizon. For years he bent and shaved a craft, inspired by the distant ship. After six years of work, the vessel was done. No nails held it together, only pine pitch and long wooden pegs, though it was watertight. It was large enough for supplies for a voyage and his own person. The sail was patched together from scraps of old woolen clothes. His masterpiece wrought, he bid farewell to his mother and his friends, and cast off with the fishing boats.

After a long, arduous journey, he arrived on the island, parched and half starved. Though his body ached and his stomach was tight, he had never felt happier. Upon his arrival, he pulled his boat upon the beach and, with his last ounce of strength, built a rudimentary shelter, before collapsing.

1/2. This is the kind of thing that I love. Big projects mean big fun. The ships should be clinker-built, so that they can twist from bow to stern, making navigating the rough waters easier, and to decrease displacement without sacrificing stability. These beauties will cut through the waves like ploughs through soft earth. I'll see how far I can get alone, working all day, every day. If I can't cut it myself, I can go out to look for more people, but for now, it's all me. According to the warrior's preference, the vessels could more closely resemble the longships of his homeland, being more aquadynamic, while sacrificing a small amount of carrying capacity, or could be larger, bulkier vessels. These would be slower, but could carry more than the longships.

When he was in his twenties, both his wife and his only son died of a mysterious illness, despite (or maybe because of) the "operations" he tried to perform on them. Mad with grief, Lulach decided to take the vows and became a monk. He spent most of the time in the library where he copied and studied many tomes with great fervor. In the safety of the monastery he learned latin, greek, theology and philosophy, but most importantly he learned medicine, which he studied with feverish passion; eventually, his thirst for knowledge and his love for God helped him forget the pain for the loss of his family. When Lulach heard the tales regarding a mystival island call Iceland, he decided that God wanted him to explore these lands to spread His word and send informations to his Church. He sent a letter to the bishop of his diocese in which he talked about his mission and left without even waiting for an answer, anxious to fulfill his destiny

>Zuria Yñigo - (Sea - Cave)

(48) - None of the soldiers seem to be willing to part with there blade or axe. Heading to the boat you grab some spare timber and tashion a quick torch. If you wanted to stay safe you would need to see what was ahead of you.

(“102”) - You and your men head inwards away from the lapping of water on the underground shore. It takes what you can only guess to be nearly an entire day before the long twisting halls of the cavern see any change, the lack of slippery moss and fungus over the walls seem to indicate you are nearing the surface when a screech is heard. A number of short humanoid creatures with the dull grey eyes of a fish and the teeth of menacing shark are charging up from the tunnels. Running alongside your men a light is seen up ahead. As you try to get there the fish catch up and battle ensues. There sharp teeth bite into flesh and your men hack them to pieces, your torch is put to good use beating off those that slip through the wall of iron. In what was probably ten minutes you and your men stand in the hall surrounded by the corpses of the fish people. You make your way up and out of the cave, and the sun blinds you… to your left and right long stretches of sandy beach sink into the horizon. It a near 40 foot drop from the cave entrance to the beach, but you and your men begin charging down it when you see something at the shore’s edge. The Old man, your ship next to him smiles and waves as you near he sinks into the sea foam and a thundering laugh begins to play across the sky seemingly summoning a storm from the clouds above. When you get to the ship a small sack lays in the water, whatever is inside of it is a mystery (What is inside is already determined, you can abandon whatever it is or roll for info)

>Ryan MacDiadh (Lakeside - NorthWest of Purple)

(27)/(2) - Work doesn’t go as planned as soon after your arrival to the lake a storm begins to brew on the horizon, as your people began to fell the first trees for shelter they began to get soaked as the storm thundered over. Across the lake an enormous bolt of lightning strikes down and under a hodgepodge shelter you and your people shelter, praying to whatever deity they had. When you awoke the next morning the rain had calm to a steady shower. Four of your peasants were missing and a number of them were beginning to feel ill. It isn’t until you walk outside that you notice the biggest problem. By some miracle you’re alive however the surrounding area was covered in an enormous mudslide last night. The lake side would need to be cleaned if settling here was still what you wanted to do. (-4 Peasants, +Situation: Ruined Countryside - Progress(0/100))

(28)/(28) - With your people either coughing inside shelter of exploring there soaking surroundings. Taking out the sacks you begin rummaging through the random things you found on your way here. For the most part all of it is useless in your current situation, the few medicinal herbs are quickly mixed and given to the sick. One thing sticks out though, a small pair of pure white stones. One of the younger peasants had found them together at the bottom of a riverbed. They give off a weird aura, maybe once the situation was solved you could investigated (+Odd pair of white stones, -3 packs)

>James Godwinson (Near the Purple Settlement)

(90)/(20) - The beginning of the week shows great promise, the signs begin to show more clearly and soon enough you have it’s trail. The stail prints of a massive beast walking to the east,adrenaline fills you and you begin you steady run through the forest. As you leap across a large stream you stumble and a feeling of sad panic fills you. Thunder booms across the sky and lightning streaks across the clouds behind you. You try and make as much progress as possible before you settle in and keep dry and the storm rages above. When you wake up much of the more obvious tale is lost, the sprinkling of water continuing the wash it away. (Progress: 39/100)

>Brother Lulach mac Cormaic (Wilds - SE Island)

(57)/(43) - For the most part the trip is relatively normal, much of the fauna is similar to what was at the settlement, though as days turn to weeks and you venture further the Forested terrain turns to rolling hills and the Large Mountains become visible in the distance. At the edge of the forest you collect a number of edible plants as this new area is foreign to you both, while searching you come across an odd ferret like creature whose rust red fur is quite beautiful, that is before an enormous Hawk swoops down and tears the beast from the ground. The large hawks and other birds seem to dominate the enormous oaks that are scattered across the plains.

(67)/(49) Your journey is long one and stretching your supplies would not be an easy task, you keep your eyes peeled for found and dangerous situations to avoid. During your nearly month long journey you had a fairly relaxing time discussing theology with Lulach. The Forests are peaceful and other than the occasional viper, which is quickly avoided do you run into dangerous animals. It isn’t until nearly two weeks have passed when the more dangerous nature begins to surface, for the most part the the only real danger to the party was a wild boar you found, nearly possessed by it’s own anger it nearly gored Lulach before your arrows pierced it’s hide. Whatever made it so was best avoided so you two continued to move on.

>Devanichi Lossivel (don’t forget the warrior died)

(97) - A quick trip into the town market has you finding a number of peddlers selling a variety of medicines. A number of them remind you of the home remedies you saw the servant use, asking them you have a few of the “approved” medicine in hand hours later. Downing them with a hot soup and plenty of sleep you seem to have gotten over whatever sickness was beginning to form inside you. (Sickness is cured before it sets in)

(55) - With you sickness cured you head into town once more to find people willing to join you, most of the peasants having settled in recruiting is becoming increasingly harder to accomplish. However down on the beach a few ships arrive every day and soon enough you find one full of just what you were looking for (+English Warriors: Level 1 Company Size: 3)

>Fraigh macDiadh

(54) It seems the head priests have headed into the forest leaving the faithful to work on the Monastery alone, these gives you ample room to squeeze out some of their workforce to help you begin the quarry (Progress: 27/100)

(55) when you aren’t digging you search for the mysterious purple hued creature, you notice a few other people searching for it as well. It seems to be why many of the People are referring to this place as the “purple” settlement. You see it in the quiet mornings as the sun rises its feather seemingly apart of the horizon the only distinction of its existence is the black orbs you can only assume are its eyes. You can not tell due the ethereal form of the bird, but you can only guess that it is of an enormous size.

>Dara Mag Uiginn

(90)/(56) - With weeks of nigh endless work one of the ships is nearly complete, a few other ship wrights had been hired. They however were not long for the “shipyard” fired for how slow they were or simply because funding reasons the only one within the halls was you and the Old Warrior. He was captivated with your work and whenever he wasn’t training his sailors or procuring goods and lands for the new trade fleet he was talking with you as your work progressed along. (Progress (49/600))

>Charles Idicus

(66)/(95) - Recruitment slows as you look for more soldiers, many of them have already joined together or hired themselves out to another. It is however a fresh pool of scouts and explorers, other than a few not many want to go too deep into the forest so those wanting are sitting around until of course, you found them (+4 Axe Warriors, +19 Explorers/Scouts)

It takes the better part of 3 days to get the walls up in the direction of the beast home. It would take more time to finish the other side but for now, 1 front was better than 2. (Basic Wooden Walls (29/50))

>Bernadine "Bernard" Karling

(3)/(30) - Things only seem to get worse, not only did a number of your comrades die in battle but one of them was one of the few men here you actually talked with. A farm boy with a big heart even though many of the men shunned you, he helped you train and converse… You watched as one of the beasts torn him in half, his screams ringing through the air before the beast’s maw enveloped his head crushing it before it devoured his body. Huddled in camp as the Lord attempts to work through the situation, depression only sinks ever deeper into your body. (Depression II- requires a 90+ to get rid of, -7 to all rolls)

Red_Philosophy: Zuria Yñigo

———–

Character Nationality: Basque (Iberian)

Fluff: Zuria is something of a free willed person, and the cultural mores of her society allowed her property and status as such. Given this fortunate confluence of circumstances, Zuria has taken it on herself to become something of an explorer and traveler, seeing the frontier as being somewhat freer than the dense cities of her homeland. As such she brings little in the way of combat skill, but she has the name of a prominent family and a solid group of followers – she is still a lady, after all.

>Character Name: Fraigh macDiadh

>Character Nationality: Irish

>Fluff: Fraigh, son of Deodh, was born in Ulster, Donagal specifically. When his city went to war with Connacht province, Fraigh followed with stalwart heart and steady blade. It was on the fields of battle that his legend grew, but it was in the fields of the Otherworld that his mind went, for Fraigh was ever enamored with the ancient Irish legends and stories of old heroes. He decided that he would find a place among the fables, and make a true name for himself in this new land, taking any true Irish men who would go with him. The Tuatha de Macha, they would be called, and they would conquer for the greatness of their forebears.

>Name Dara Mag Uiginn, Saor Bád (Shipwright)

>Character Nationality: Irish?

>Fluff:

The bastard child of a Viking raider and a village fisherwoman, Dara Mag Uiginn never knew his father, though that never bothered him much. He helped his mother at the piers and on the boats for most of his early life, the salt and sharp air hardening his features, and the hard life toughening his body. He was content in life until one afternoon after work. He had been unloading the day's catch when he caught sight of a vessel off the coast. There was something about this ship that stirred something within him, something that he couldn't name at the time. It was a long ship, unlike the crude fishing boats of his village, and though he only saw it from afar, he could tell that it was a graceful craft, ploughing the waves like a farmer ploughs his field, pushing aside the buffeting waves.

After that day, he would take a few hours every night, though his body ached from work, to work on a project of his own. The ship had inspired a feeling of wanderlust in him, the need to know what laid beyond the horizon. For years he bent and shaved a craft, inspired by the distant ship. After six years of work, the vessel was done. No nails held it together, only pine pitch and long wooden pegs, though it was watertight. It was large enough for supplies for a voyage and his own person. The sail was patched together from scraps of old woolen clothes. His masterpiece wrought, he bid farewell to his mother and his friends, and cast off with the fishing boats.

After a long, arduous journey, he arrived on the island, parched and half starved. Though his body ached and his stomach was tight, he had never felt happier. Upon his arrival, he pulled his boat upon the beach and, with his last ounce of strength, built a rudimentary shelter, before collapsing.

1. This is going too slowly. With all respect to my employer, perhaps we aren't looking in the right places. If his sailors are being trained in the vicinity, can they not also do some of the simpler, menial labor required for the construction of their vessels? I could oversee them, they're already being paid, and it's not like they're going anywhere anytime soon without their ships. We could pay them in promissory notes, with small percentages of future profits cut out for them. That way, they'd have an incentive not to leave since the work is too hard, and a motivation to bring in as much profit in the future as they possibly can. They'd only be available for those who stay on to project completion, of course. [Propose new labor plan to employer]

2. I don't want to get on my employer's bad side, so I'll just keep working. The frames are coming along nicely, and the timber is of good quality. I really feel like this could be a great thing. [Keep working]

>Character Name: Aodh Mac Domhnall

>Character Nationality: Papar

>Location: Purple Settlement

>Fluff:

Aodh came in with a storm, like so many others, speaking an accented Irish Gaelic, and has picked up a bit of Norse from the various Scandanavians that ended up in the settlement as well. Keeping a bit to himself as he finds the Norse ways strange but intriguing, the others have given the man some privacy - after all they are strangers in this land as well. As such, Aodh lives slightly apart from the rest of theh settlement, but shows up willing and eager to work on most tasks.

Aodh carries with him a bow, a bit ornate and of unusual design; when asked he said it was his grandfather's. He has shown good skill in hitting birds in flight and other game with it, and is able to make his own arrows.

Aodh is a Christian, and wears on him a small bronze celtic cross on a cord around his neck, and has erected a larger cross on the edge of the settlement, praying there in his native tongue on occasion.

Beyond that, Aodh sees much and says little, seeking to learn more Norse - his green eyes did light up when he saw Norse Runes, and has spent much time trying to learn them - in between helping hunt for food and build shelter.

>Name: Brother Lulach mac Cormaic

>Character Nationality: Scottish

>Fluff: In the first part of his life, Lulach worked as a barber-surgeon, just like his father and the father of his father. When he was in his twenties, both his wife and his only son died of a mysterious illness, despite (or maybe because of) the "operations" he tried to perform on them. Mad with grief, Lulach decided to take the vows and became a monk. He spent most of the time in the library where he copied and studied many tomes with great fervor. In the safety of the monastery he learned latin, greek, theology and philosophy, but most importantly he learned medicine, which he studied with feverish passion; eventually, his thirst for knowledge and his love for God helped him forget the pain for the loss of his family. When Lulach heard the tales regarding a mystival island call Iceland, he decided that God wanted him to explore these lands to spread His word and send informations to his Church. He sent a letter to the bishop of his diocese in which he talked about his mission and left without even waiting for an answer, anxious to fulfill his destiny

Bernadine was prepped as heir to a barony in Normandy for the first five years of her life until her parents finally had a son. They ignored her, and in spite she turned to swordplay and warfare, even learning about her ancestors claim on Normandy and her distant cousins war with England. She had reached the age of marriage when her parents decided to look for prospects for alliances with other nobility. Being ignored, and now to be used as nothing but a political tool, she grew frightened of her future… and then she grew angry. Taking the family bastard sword she trained with, her favorite ribbon, and some heavy clothes and cloak to obscure her visage, she painted some of her body and face with old norse styles she read about in her books and signed up as one of the norman recruits heading to the island to escape her parents and find glory as she read about as a child.
