Guenevere (WIP)

I tried to ask Arther why he thought I’d want to have kids for him when I didn’t even want to marry him and I got error message “{}”

@snappingcookies yeargh! I’m sorry about that. I made a tiny revision to that scene earlier today, and I messed something up when I did. It should be fixed now. Many many thanks for pointing it out!

@Tehani: I’ll try to give a vague answer. :slight_smile: Yes, sort of, maybe not in exactly the ways you’re describing, but basically yes. Guen will be able to fail at important things. For example, part 2 sets up three possible goals she might achieve, all of which can affect later installments of the game. She can fail at all three of them. It will be extremely difficult to achieve all three (most people will get one or two), so Guen will have to choose carefully what’s the most important to her. Her relationships can also fail, though that will never be arbitrary.

@poison_mara and @pepper Those are good explanations! I love the D&D alignment system. I find law vs. chaos a lot more interesting than good vs. evil.

@shirette Basically tell everyone to leave you alone whenever possible. But just to warn you, the dream-sequences are very very short (just a few lines), so maybe not as exciting as they sound.

@MarvelousMatty me either. :slight_smile: Wish I could write faster!

@jeantown it’s okay take your time, you are a terrific writer! :smiley:

@jeantown so just wondering will Mordred be a RO?

@MarvelousMatty OF COURSE, if not @jeantown would know the poison queen rage :wink: . But know seriously, yes he was confirmed pages ago he would be the evil romance option

Isn’t Mordred pretty big on his own plans, though? Seems like an ambitious, scheming Guen would be better off wrapping the existing, respected king tight around her little finger.

Hmm, I figure, barring any big surprises along the way, that my Guin will respond to her husband and her girlfriend having a baby as a unofficial third parent, as for Lance’s unexpected forays into parenthood, well that depends on whether Lance gets less annoying. :slight_smile:

I mean Lance is important to the people important to Guin, but she’s really “go take a cold bath or get neutered or something, shoo!”

@MarvelousMatty It is as @poison_mara says. :slight_smile: It’s fairly common in early versions of the Arthurian legend that Mordred tries to marry Guinevere. Our Guen will be significantly older than Mordred, but that issue can be addressed.

@Dominic Guen should be able to be plenty evil without Mordred’s help. She can work with him or not, as she pleases.

@stsword I’m still laughing over “go take a cold bath or get neutered or something, shoo!” I hope you’ll enjoy the opportunity Guen will have to give Lancelot a definitive “hell no” in part 2. :slight_smile:

@jeantown Oh, yeah, I’m sure she won’t need Mordred’s help to be evil. I was just musing about the matchups. Good/Evil (to simplify things a bit) pairings always seem to have a bit more zest to them, at least in fiction, than evil/evil.

Seems like a lot of people are going to be evil with Guen I thinks that’s a litte funny :wink:

It depends a bit on your perspective, I suppose. I’ll admit that my first instinct was to have her be extremely ambitious, though for at least nominally noble purposes - kind of an “I should be in charge, because I don’t trust anyone else’s judgement” thing. Enlightened despotism. Which is self-serving, but probably somewhere in the middle, as far as morality goes.

My base Guen, basically the one I usually play, is a little hot under the collar for Morgana and is a tough badass who would’ve liked to interrogate the assassin herself and would kill anyone who tried to harm her, no fair maiden is she. She would rescue the knight from the tower and send the dragon to bed with no dinner.

Love your Guen @scrivener

My Guin, no villainess she, but she’s a case of good is not nice.

She sees it as her duty to Arthur to help him with his goals, but she also sees it as her duty to her kingdom to protect it and she sees that as the more important duty of the two, so that king she captured that wants her dead for example?

She’ll let Arthur give him a second chance, but if he says no he’s not getting a third chance. And depending on her dark magic score at the time, it’ll be plague, earthquake, lightning strike, firestorm, zombie apocalypse, or whatever time.

Honey collects more flies than vinegar, it’s true, but when you really need flies nothing beats the smell of spilled blood and rotting meat.

Speak softly and carry a big stick.

@stsword My Guen said is “Speak softly and carry poison lots of it” =)) it’s so funny talking about our Guens, lol.

My Guen is:
-Really nice/ditzy
-High Combat and Intelligence (I think)
-Really, really bloodthirsty (kills the Saxon leader and lies about it)
-Doesn’t really care about romance, still nice to basically everyone
-Works against Arthur’s dream
-Mordred can do whatever he wants as long as it doesn’t have anything to do with the British Invasion.

You guys worry me sometime.

I agree Shirette I agree

:blush:

No I think it cool when people told their Guen personality and I like all of them

But I still worry :frowning: :wink:

Was about to post but might as well tell my Guen’s personality as well

She’s a good girl who wants to always do the right thing but finds it hard to do in her situation but she tries with what she’s got but don’t get her fooled for a weak girl cause she’s not one she will be prepared to kill you if you deserve it but she’ll try to make peace when she’s able. She is also cant decide on Arthur or Lance ( she wants lance more at this time) and doesn’t know who Mordread is though and doesn’t kill the Saxon leader. (Sorry for the really long long sentences)

I worry about my self now

I’ve given up on worrying about myself long ago. No point in trying to move the moon :wink:

I like making back stories for characters and it’s easier when there’s already a set storyline.
