Perhaps they could have a grand capital in their strongest location, and the other areas would be quickly-estabilished strongholds/garrisons/outposts in strategic locations, or smaller villages/cities. We're dealing with a large amount of mer, here, no matter how you look at it. This is the exodus of a whole race. Necessity would cause their cities to develop quickly no matter HOW recent they are. __________________ Your monkeys dance on the Tower and the stars change and you do not remember. 2006.08.18 06:18 DarkAsmodeous King of the Kittens Registration Date: 2006.05.25 Posts: 5,338 20 years worth of building, nothing awe inspiring, prolly mostly makeshift, but settled enough for themt o be standing cities, the one in the crystal desert is VERY new. __________________ The soul's condition is learning to fly Condition grounded, but determined to try Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies Toung-tied and twisted, just an Earth-bound misfit, I 2006.08.18 06:18 Hrafnkel Count Registration Date: 2006.08.01 Posts: 861 When did we decide that they only got here 20 years ago? __________________ Your monkeys dance on the Tower and the stars change and you do not remember. 2006.08.18 06:20 DarkAsmodeous King of the Kittens Registration Date: 2006.05.25 Posts: 5,338 not the exact time, but we wanted them to have arived durring the current generation so they would be a new threat, that needs to be dealt with. __________________ The soul's condition is learning to fly Condition grounded, but determined to try Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies Toung-tied and twisted, just an Earth-bound misfit, I 2006.08.18 06:21 Aetherius Viscount Registration Date: 2006.08.02 Posts: 508 I don't think it was ever OFFICIALY established, but it would make sense. __________________ Akavir mod texturer and race modder 2006.08.18 06:21 Hrafnkel Count Registration Date: 2006.08.01 Posts: 861 And so the explanation of where they were duing the centuries between Yokuda's destruction and their arrival is...? __________________ Your monkeys dance on the Tower and the stars change and you do not remember. 2006.08.18 06:22 DarkAsmodeous King of the Kittens Registration Date: 2006.05.25 Posts: 5,338 They hung out soomewhere...

Maybe a huge palace in the capital built as a testament to the architecture they used on Yokuda, showing their culture's 'immortality.' Or a temple to Lorkhan. __________________ Your monkeys dance on the Tower and the stars change and you do not remember. 2006.08.18 06:27 Orodromis Baron Registration Date: 2006.08.02 Posts: 329 Location: Hrafnkel I agree that the Yokumer do need several strongholds and garrisons. If the main quest is going to envolve them going to war with all the other races they would definitely need strong defenses. __________________ Akavir race modder and texturer 2006.08.18 08:07 DarkAsmodeous King of the Kittens Registration Date: 2006.05.25 Posts: 5,338 Yes, but not extremely ornamental, and not something made to stand for thousands of years, perhaps 8 border forts, 5 within their land, and large ones at cities. __________________ The soul's condition is learning to fly Condition grounded, but determined to try Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies Toung-tied and twisted, just an Earth-bound misfit, I 2006.08.18 08:08 Orodromis Baron Registration Date: 2006.08.02 Posts: 329 Location: Hrafnkel I agree. Is the Yokumer army as big as all the others put together? __________________ Akavir race modder and texturer 2006.08.18 08:13 DarkAsmodeous King of the Kittens Registration Date: 2006.05.25 Posts: 5,338 I think not, maybe 3/4 the size, but very vicious fighters. __________________ The soul's condition is learning to fly Condition grounded, but determined to try Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies Toung-tied and twisted, just an Earth-bound misfit, I 2006.08.18 08:14 Hrafnkel Count Registration Date: 2006.08.01 Posts: 861 Their strongholds HAVE to be built to last, to withstand attacks. They shouldn't be ornamental, of course, but they should be incredibly durable. __________________ Your monkeys dance on the Tower and the stars change and you do not remember. 2006.08.18 16:36 Arbiter Archduke Registration Date: 2005.10.24 Posts: 2,822 Location: Croatia the Nether-Bringer quote: Originally posted by Hrafnkel Their strongholds HAVE to be built to last, to withstand attacks.

Cloud ruler temple is both ornamental and fucntional. __________________ The Forgotten Ones have returned. 2006.08.18 16:57 Hrafnkel Count Registration Date: 2006.08.01 Posts: 861 Those are vastly different circumstances, though. __________________ Your monkeys dance on the Tower and the stars change and you do not remember. 2006.08.18 17:07 DarkAsmodeous King of the Kittens Registration Date: 2006.05.25 Posts: 5,338 They are strong strucures, but they wern't built on the principle of lasting forever, they can take atacks,but the structure will not hold for thousands of years. __________________ The soul's condition is learning to fly Condition grounded, but determined to try Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies Toung-tied and twisted, just an Earth-bound misfit, I 2006.08.18 17:09 Hrafnkel Count Registration Date: 2006.08.01 Posts: 861 I just can't see why you're so intent on having their structures suck. These aren't simple barbarians, these are the builders of a Tower. They know how to construct a building. __________________ Your monkeys dance on the Tower and the stars change and you do not remember. 2006.08.18 17:10 DarkAsmodeous King of the Kittens Registration Date: 2006.05.25 Posts: 5,338 I never said they suck, I'm being realistic, while also saying they have freaking fortresses, barbians don't build those, I'm saying they should have a feel of yokuda architecture, but not be very established. __________________ The soul's condition is learning to fly Condition grounded, but determined to try Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies Toung-tied and twisted, just an Earth-bound misfit, I 2006.08.18 17:22 Hrafnkel Count Registration Date: 2006.08.01 Posts: 861 I'm seeing the strongholds as being slightly similar to dunmer strongholds. Built to withstand frequent attacks, and consequently, able to stand strong for thousands of years. __________________ Your monkeys dance on the Tower and the stars change and you do not remember.
