Posted. I was thinking that each of our first posts could be at camp/getting to camp, especially for those not familiar with the game, and then myself or someone else who knows the game could roleplay getting to Ostagar after we've all settled into the setting.
Anyone can feel free to roleplay Juno entering the camp. Keep in mind he currently has an accent which heavily resembles a French accent.
As far as specific references: Ferelden is the country we're in. Orlais in their direct neighbor, who had control over them until thirty years ago, when Maric, the father of the current king, Cailan Theirin, led a successful rebellion. Ostagar is an old fortress the king has chosen to make his stand at, in south Ferelden (a few hours' journey from our camp).
The "Maker" is basically their equivalent of God.
A Grey Warden had to go through a ritual known as the Joining in which they drink darkspawn blood to become a Grey Warden and recieve the darkspawn 'taint.'
Oh, and hurlocks are taller, more muscular darkspawn, usually who use melee weapons, while genlocks are shorter and fatter, usually using ranged weapons. Hurlock or genlock 'emissaries' are darkspawn mages. I think that's all the basic info. Any more questions, just ask.
