Welcome to .: ~ Prayers to the night mother ~ :.

Just a quick note, if you think your're going to drop out at some time or your just going to become in-active in this RP, dont join, because i have planned and researched for this RP for ages, and i dont want it dying before it can reach page 20. All my other RP's i've ever made have :closedeyes: Hoping this will be different. *Fingers crossd*

Right, lets explain the plot shall we?

We work for an organization called The Dark Brotherhood. Anyone who plays Oblivion, knows what im talking about, but i presume most people here dont. So let me explain. We live in our own private Sanctuary, that no one knows the whereabouts of besides us. The entrance is inside an abandoned old house in the city of Cheydinhal.

Basically, we are assasins, a very organized bunch of assasins. We kill for the night mother, wife of Sithis, the sort of god that we worship. People who want others to be killed, pray to the night mother, who speaks to the listeners, who speak to the speakers, who speak to the silencers, who tell other members of the guild to kill that person. Phew!

Yeah, you may be thinking this is gonna die pretty easy, but i've been thinking of a big plot for it. Here we go...

BIG MAIN PLOT THING, ALL MEMBERS READ PLEASE

Whoever prayed to the night mother wants a family dead. But not just any family, the family of count Vivio. He rules the city of Anax, high up in the north mountains. Vivio lives with his youngest daughter in the castle of Anax, and suspects an attempt on his life. He has upped his security, guards constantly patrol the perimeter of the castle, leaving no entrance un-guarded. He has had new locks put to his quarters, and guard dogs around the castle. The 2 speakers decide this to be the hardest part of the family assasination, and decide to take it on themselfs, sending their 4 silencers to do the job.

The 1st daughter : Aste Elegant and beautifull, the youngest daughter lives in style with her father in the castle of Anax. She is spoilt and has a bad attitude to those around her. Still very young, at the age of 16. She spends 4 nights a week down the local pub, wooing the young men of the city.

The 2nd daughter : Nenya Works on a vineyard with her husband and two children. Her wine is famous around Tamriel, and has earned her a lot of money. Her house is large, and very nice. Security is tight, with special locks and guard dogs.

The 3rd daughter : Nirya Lives in Anvil, and owns her own weapons and armor shop. She is skilled with a blade and not to be under-estimated. She travels to Anax by horse every week to visit her father.

The 1st son : Erandur A guard captain in Skingrad, he is respected by his men and has a high reputation in town. He carries a heavily enchanted claymore around, and is lethal in battle. His armor is thick and strong, no arrows can pierce it.

The 2nd son : Valmir Betrayed his family and became a necromancer, experimenting with the dark arts in a heavily guarded fort west of Cheydinhal. He is a powerfull mage, with devastating spells and has the power to summon un-dead. He lives in the fort with his fellow necromancers, and only go's out to hunt.

The 2 speakers begin to plan the assasinations, and call their 4 speakers to the main hall of the sanctuary to explain to them the task. This is where we shall start.


First, the sanctuary.

Inside there is....
A training room, with archery targets and dummeys.
Sleeping quarters, with beds and a table to eat at.
Private quarters for the speakers (read the ranks bit) of the sanctuary.
And just a general main room with seats and food etc.

Here is where we live, and plan our kills. The entrance is a well behind an abononed old house which each member gets a key to.

The ranks:

The whole ranking system is known as the black hand. Members beleive they are part of a family, and usually call each other brother/sister.

Listener: The top rank, listens to the night mother, and tells the speakers who needs killing. There is only one listener. The thumb of the hand.
Speaker: Takes the killing list from the listener, and commands their personal silencers to do the jobs. Sometimes they take part in jobs. There are 4 speakers, the fingers of the hand. Each speaker has their own silencer.
Silencers: The best murderers of the family. They take the top jobs and do them. Told what to do by Speakers.
Assasin: Normal murderers. They have worked their way up through the ranks and are considered to be Silencers assaistants.

There are more ranks, but i dont think anyone would chose their char to be just a lowly murderer new to the dark brotherhood.

Extra info:

Here is the map to cyrodill:

^^^ there is also a lot of good information on that site about oblivion if your struggling, look for the dark brotherhood bit.

Cheydinhal is in the top right corner.

Weapons and equipment

Well commonly we prefer to use bows and arrows, both with enchantments. Enchantments can include elemental damage (e.g fire), extra health damages, and silencing charms, like paralyzing and dispelling, meaning they cant use magic against you.
You can also use poisen with your arrows.

We can use daggers/shortswords. They may also include enchantments, and may also be poisened, prefered to be used on sleeping targets.

When each person joins the dark brotherhood, they are presented a suit of Shrouded armor with a hood. See image below. It carries special enchantments enchancing your sneaking, marksman, and security (lock picking) skills.

And a blade of woe, a small enchanted black dagger carrying damage health enchancements. You dont have to use this, you can make up a weapon, but you must wear the armor when assasinating. It helps a lot and its dark brotherhood stuff.

Thats pretty much it, i am very sorry for the long read, but there was a lot to cover. Anything you want to ask me, feel free to PM me. I will post a character thread for us to post our Bios into, on the New characters thread.

Enjoy! Azura Undome. :)

Hi Azura :)

I would like to join ! It sounds awesome. Just a question, is the brotherhood evil? Are they the bad guys? In that case I perhaps would like to play the traitor whose conscience gets bothered.

Hello Will :)

Yes, the Brotherhood is evil, and sure if you want to play the Traitor. :)

The character thread is in the "New Characters" section of the forum, the bio template and character list is in there.

Thanks for being the first to join :hug:

I had intended to be in only one role play and I had to have one more upon seeing all of the suggestions from the guild. Now I shall have to add another. :P Therefore I am going to ask whether or not I could join.

I happen to have Oblivion and I happened to have been in the Assassins Creed which is the one that I do the most for. ;) Would all that applies in this guild apply to this role play? Such as having the choice of becoming a vampire? And would we be able to be all of the different races of Cyrodill?

Oh of course!! i forgot to post all about this :closedeyes: *is very annoyed at self*

Must have been all that sleepyness this morning.

Of course you may join, im not going to post ALL the ranks, just the more popular ones. Im not really sure you'd have a nord in the dark brotherhood eh? ;)

And also, if you want to have any conversations regarding oblivion, im always open for PM's :hug:

EDIT: Decided that its too much hassle now, already have had people read the whole thing, and someones posted their bio already. It'd be annoying to have to change it all. Lets just assume we're all imperials :)
