The Madgod's Request
An Amulet barely recognized for what it truly is due to its power over the human mind has resurfaced. This Artifact, going by several names including the 'Pendant of Insatiable Insanity' and 'The Madstone' was always thought to be related to the unpredictable Daedric Prince, Sheogorath. This common interpretation was fueled by the wearer descending into a mental state of paranoia, anxiety and depression which usually ended in homicidal or suicidal urges.
This 'Descent into Madness' was unique to each wearer and could manifest itself as an intense 24hours of absolute insanity or be expressed over several years as the wearer slowly became more obsessive and paranoid to an extent where they would become unrecognizable by the ones closest to them. That was the case of the last known holder of this Daedric Artifact.
A reclusive and wealthy family, who prided themselves on the horses they bred in the hills, north-east of Riften, came about this pendent. The man of the house was already a proud and domineering man and yet over the next several months he had fits of domestic violence, near constant mumbling and a detachment from his family and stable hand staff. It all ended on a lovely Sundas morning when he took the wood-chopping axe and went around slashing at his staff whilst laughing like a maniac. He went inside his huge manor, grabbed his wife and two young sons and proceeded to lock himself and his family in the basement with no food or water. That was the last anyone ever saw the family.
Many years later, the manor sits amongst the hills, decaying and well forgotten. A young, inquisitive nord lady by the name of Wyldfyre stumbles across this once-grand building and plucks up her courage to look inside, even though her intuition is telling her to keep away. The next events can only be described as totally unexpected and absolutely crazy...

This is an adventure Roleplay, starting out in the city of Riften and ending up at the Blue Palace, Solitude. It follows the story of Wyldfyre, who, after finding this Daedric influenced artifact, gets tasked by the Mad God himself to bring it to his shrine in Solitude. Young and inexperienced, Wyldfyre needs help to traverse the dangerous wilds of Skyrim and so asks help from her Mage friend, Elenwen, who has an understanding of Daedric influences. Wyldfyre also needs a Warrior Bodyguard and an experienced Ranger if she has any hope to deliver this bizarre amulet.
The journey will be fraught with danger as Molag Bal has always had an interest in The Madstone for the leadership bonuses it grants the wearer and his Dremora Champion, Raqwitch has been tasked with retrieving it. The Daedra know the only way the wearer of the amulet can be relieved of it, is by the Hand of Sheogorath or directly off the wearer’s corpse.

This Role play is co-written by Shadowkitty and myself. Shadowkitty will be playing the role of Wyldfyre and I will be role playing the apprentice mage, Elenwen.
At this point in time we need a physical bodyguard and an experienced ranger. These characters will be met in or around Riften and be enlisted (through discussion) to help in the journey. They may be friends of Wyldfyre, mercenaries for hire or just random Samaritan who sees Wyldfyre as a lady who needs help.
At this point in time we only need these two spots filled, HOWEVER, as this is an adventure, there will be points in the journey where we interact with other characters and they may choose to continue with us to Solitude. If you are interested in this Roleplay but do not want to fill the Bodyguard or Ranger position, you may submit your CC and we will try to integrate you into the adventure when the time is right. If you are wanting to do this, please provide a reason why your character wants to come with us, what unique abilities your character brings to the group and where your character may be encountered.
This RP adheres to the general rules of role playing. Those who need a refresher can go here (http://skyrimforum.com/sf/threads/general-rules.15761/). We have a few more that you will be agreeing to when you are accepted into the Roleplay.
- You are to post regularly, and your posts must have decent volume to them. At least two paragraphs. Exceptions may apply, such as when quick back and forward dialogue is being exchanged.
- If you unable to post please let us know and then either Shadowkitty or myself will temporarily take over your character to keep the story flowing. There is nothing worse than waiting for one person to post. People get bored and it kills the Roleplay. So please, if you really want to join then stick to your commitment, respect your fellow Roleplayers, or you will be asked to leave and someone else will take over the position. As this will only be a small group, we need to be mindful of keeping the story flowing.
- This is an 18+ Roleplay. We don't require photo ID but keep in mind that Adult Themes will be featured throughout the Roleplay.
- All Out-of-Character comments or questions must NOT be written in the In-Character thread. There are no exceptions to this rule and you will be asked to edit it out if you break this rule.
