(So, a brief recap of Heavy is the Head

Back, months ago, there was a party hosted by Prince Aerion for his super gross wedding with his sister and at this party he was a gonna kill all these traitors, which happened to included Arik and Rhaela (although he was gonna rape Rhaela first, fun) anyway with the help of the daring Meilir Brevil, Taeris Redcrash, Ser Arctus, and a kitchken scullion named Ollie they escaped the palace, out into the sewers which was super gross. They made it to a tavern, using the sewers tunnels as a means of escape. At the inn, they recruited Fordola, Donnel (who hasn't made that many appearances but I'm sure he'll be important some how), Edwin, Bagarok, and other losers who aren't important. Anyway, from there they headed out to escape New Imperia. Meilir and Maia, this Forsworn lady who'll be important later, managed to open the gate for the others to escape, before escaping themselves. Meilir and Maia ran afoul of the Crimson Brigands, and no one got along, until the arrival of wayward guards forced them all to unite to escape, and they ran into Arik and Rhaela once again. There was a lot of bickering and they later arrived at Hackdirt to rest.

Hackdirt was weird as everyone had undignified body scars and then a dark god came out of ground and cut one of Rhaela's handmaidens open and it was real disturbing. The whole town turned cray cray and they were forced to high tail it out of there, riding away at full speed. It was so scary that they timeskipped all the way to Anvil (after Meilir and Rhaela hooked up, this is an important detail) and hid in a tower. A tiger tried to eat Arik so Taeris kileld it, but it turned out the tiger had cubs so the undoubtedly plot-centric characters abopted some (that being Rhaela, Arik, Ollie, Edwin (actually, strike that, he died didn't he?), and Catryn, maybe some others.) Anyway, they hid in that tower where Vidic (Fishy's character, who vanished) revealed Rhaela and Meilir had a dalliance which made Arctus really sad (poor baby). This is also an important plot point since they will be the central drama of our narrative. Very exciting.

Anyway a Legion showed up with a very unfair ultimatum that boiled down to "surrender or die." They bravely ran away, using Phantom's magic shadow powers to escape to cave (so heroic of them!) and then sneak to Arctus' family home. They then chartered a ship, one belonging to Captain Gunnar. Gunnar was a weirdo but his crew had killer rowing song so it was deemed he was safe enough to trust, and off they went. Anyway, it turned out that Gunnar wasn't actually that trustworthy and he tried to sell them all into slavery or to Aerion. After lefting Ollie go, things went awry for poor Gunnar (Tava!) and the group managed to escape, but not before Edwin was tragically killed. Bagarok killed Gunnar and Ollie got the pirate's sword. They escaped in a rowboat to Cespar.

This is all summed up in a page, more or less, which is something I will continue to do as the RP progresses because I think its fun.

In Cespar they met this jerk-off knight dude Lorik who had a hard-on for Arik. After meeting with the Queen and political stuffs, they more or less came to an agreement of supporting Prince Dane for the throne. If they put Dane in power, that little cunt Aerion is no longer a problem. They explored an old important religious sanctum, discovered a secret passage, learning the name of this dark god character (Rha'atar-- he's real bad news!), interrogated a Darkfriend and generally got work done.

From there, it was decided they'd each go their separate ways to try to gather allies elsewhere in the Empire (not before Arik and Meilir hooked up, Meilir really gets around). Taeris and Ollie lead a Legion to the Reach. Fordola, Phantom, Bagarok, Eva, Lorik, Torbjorn, and Shanks. And in Wayrest there was Meilir, Arctus, and Rhaela. Arik and Catryn stayed back on Cespar.

As of now, our heroes are bravely throwing themselves into an action.

Arctus is being a lazy bum, Meilir and Rhaela are preparing for a party.

Taeris and Ollie are stuck in the Reach with dirty Reachmen.

Fordola's group went through a portal and now they're looking out over an ashy wasteland that had been a handsome Taneth savannah not a moment ago. That's a real mind boggler!

And Arik and Catryn are sleuthing. What will they uncover?!)
