Also, a lot of the names suggested are names of actual NPCs with real back stories! Some were referenced or you met actually.

Scrree posted:Oh whoops, I misunderstood the question. I'd forgotten we went past it on our way back. So smart prince has a name, and it's confirmed he has a son. Most of Harmath's elite are probably dead, and he seemed like a cool dude, probably won't oppose grandpa or his successor. There were like 3 other cities in the siege, and one king survived, albeit with some injuries, I doubt he is very fond of the current situation. Probably waiting the time to strike. He is going to be first against the wall.

Uzziah! Became the king of Judah at 16. Also.... .....it kind of sounds like Uriah. It's also fun to say Uzziah.

If Judah did become king or otherwise ran a band of Mighty(ish) Men, would they be the People's Front of Judah?

Judah is a badass name, it's also a good incentive to get ourself a warhammer so people will give us the nickname "The Hammer"! I don't remember but what happened to that other Hammer dude who helped out against the heretics? Maybe he can train us.

Write-in: Maharg. I like the backstory. Brits kicked out the Graham clan so they reversed the spelling of their name and moved back to their old homes.

Sammah The Hammah was last seen braining heretics in the Temple of the Melachim. He didn't die that night, unless he managed to catch some high-velocity masonry during the Tudiya vs. Bareen throwdown. Far as we know, he's still out there.

I'd intended to stick with this, but all of the arguing while waiting for Diog to be ready to continue reminds me that every vote is likely to keep having pages of arguement behind it like it was towards the end of Enkidel's story. I don't have the ability to keep scrolling past it anymore, so I'm leaving the thread. If the out of game conflicts ever decrease, I might come back. Again, Diog, thank you for running a great story in a great world.

Diogines posted:Your men sleep in their armor and it is a drat good thing they do. The enormous winged demon snatches another of the Gebaban women in its jaws and swallows her nearly whole with its enormous head and with a quick movement swallows another! You are Asahel son of Enkidel. This has not been a good day. It started okay. Then a giant demon attacked your group and you are currently flying through the air. You do not have wings. This presents a problem. With a mighty gust of its wings you, your brothers in arms, even your father and Uriah are sent soaring through the air. You fly. And you crash. You have faced many great and terrible dangers, you even helped to slay one of the Amalakite princes yourself... and now you are outmatched. Terribly, terribly outmatched. You scan the field for Snarls and Ruth and run towards the both of them, intent to keep them safe at any price. They are your family and you are not going to let any harm come to them... you make it to Snarls first. You are forced to shield your eyes from the flash of a bright light somewhere nearby... something is different. Something IMPORTANT is different! Gone!? Something beside the demon which is now fleeing to the northeast. You look for your father and... do not see him. Where did he go!? You look to Snarls and ask "Where did he go boy? Where is my father!?" Snarls opens his mouth and speaks to you.... "He says, Guard the Pack!" [...] Goons, it has been a wild and crazy adventure. Thank you for joining us on Enkidel's Wild Ride. Enkidel's adventures have taken him to distant places and the effects of his actions will live on for many, many years. His adventure is over but the adventures of others whom Enkidel effected have only begun. Such as a boy named Judah, a child unknown to Enkidel who is at this moment being lead out into the middle of the wilderness by his grandfather, Joram, king of Tadmor under mysterious circumstances... http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3765009 Diogines fucked around with this message at 16:23 on Feb 19, 2016 |

A Good Ending

I would like to apologize to everyone who was upset about just getting a black screen. If it makes you feel any better, I was not very happy about that either but I wanted to be consistent with the rules. Well, I did just technically break them? Still, I feel like a brief glimpse of events right afterwards from the perspective of another character was a good compromise to give you closure of some sort. I would like to thank every Goon who join our game for playing with us, the Capybaras crunch the numbers but it is all of you who made Enkidel's adventures come alive. Thank you for joining us.

So people who want to know is the update up can look at that thread, see there is an update(if there has been a post) and know an update is up! This way it is easier for our more... casual players to keep track and not miss updates! That is the plan, plans change but we will see how it works.
