Tyrannian Plot

Thanks Siniri! Thankfully, Droid Does I should be able to max out each day with my handy little smartphone

Stop!

Tyrannian Brownies
Stone In A Box
Tyrannian Bone
Uggatrip

Ancient Shopping List Scroll
Elephante Fossils
Bone Chair
Dung Painting
Stone Triangle
Uggatrip
Speak Tyrannian
Icklesaur
Solid Stone Pizza
Dung Negg
Rock Mote

Orange Fizzy Gravel

Today I got the above and one other thing, apparently. There are a few books, which might be worth holding on to since they're one-use. The negg is sadly not redeemable for negg tokens at the Neggery. There are probably some prizes that are rarer than others, but I don't know which those would be (maybe the icklesaur?). Could you win something super rare like a Tyrannian paintbrush? I have no idea. My guess would be no, but there are probably a few useful items.

ETA: Well, that was fast. Hope everyone got to dig at least once. It seems like the NC component will run separately than the regular plot, which makes sense. I was really hoping we wouldn't be expected to dig for 5 hours a day for 2 weeks straight! On the other hand, I was hoping we'd get more time before battling so I could reach the next boost (they've taken so long teasing us I'm actually nearly there).

Is this the long lost obelisk that the Wheel of Mediocrity tells you to visit?

The sudden ending of the digging part caught everyone by surprise. I certainly was.

Even though the digging was just going to be the epilogue to the main plot, it was rather short. Basically that means that no plot points were involved (not that I really expected any). Makes me wonder now....what is TNT up to?

Battling is definitely still on the table, but with the NC part only going for 2 weeks, does this mean the plot will only go for 2 weeks?

Arggh! Too many questions, not enough answers! LOL

[Chivewarrior]

I can think of at least one possibility, which is that there's going to be some kind of takeoff or parody of "2001: A Space Odyssey" involved here. Think about it-- large obelisk appearing in the middle of the desert...

Bring on the Monkeys... Perhaps a tie in to MonkeyQuest?

Edit------------------------------

Word has gotten around that something big has been discovered. Even now, forces are mobilising to investigate the obelisk... and perhaps, claim it for themselves.

Thieves Guild

The charming face of Neopia's criminal scene. Looking for your items? The Thieves Guild has already stolen them. And your socks.

[Daze]

Wow!! The video is great! I am enjoying every moment of this....TNT are not doing the regular stuff, you just can't predict where they are going. The boards are a riot. LOL.

[Siniri]

That video is such a massive improvement over the old, clunky Flash comics. The "TBC" sign is down... so I suspect we'll find something to do soon enough. (Besides, if the video corresponds to a comic, it only makes sense...)

I actually wasn't too surprised that the obelisk unveiling was brief; the obelisk was halfway uncovered by the second day, after all. By the way, I found an old image with the obelisk from Tyrannia (it was before my time):

Looks like it's not the same thing as the one we just unveiled, unless Tyrannia has had a lot of secret plate-shifting that didn't create any noticeable changes on the surface.

I hope the plot is longer than 2 weeks. There might be multiple NC components, and so you'd want to space them. But isn't DD usually in the spring? Is it March or April? Maybe TNT will have us doing both at once... I want the plot to last a long time, but I also can't let Neopets consume my life... Can we just cancel DD this year?

New video - The Sway.

WoWee!!

[Siniri]

Two days, eh? I hope that's a hint for us. Some people on the boards are suggesting there will be at least two more videos, but I don't know how they think they know that. It makes sense for there to be a Tyrannian faction, at least.

Between our two choices so far, I prefer the Thieves Guild. We shall see.

The Order Of The Red Erisim.

I had been waiting for the magic side (the image of the bori witch).

There were 4 plot teaser images released by TNT (which I posted on that other board) they are from the videos (the first video confirmed that).

We saw 1 from the Thief Guild. The Sway didn't have one (also in the video, the sway said "I expect to see you all in 2 days time", meaning more factions are to come).

That left 3 images.

Today we say The Order of the Red Erisim, which gave us another image.

This leaves 2 more images - the skeith battle leader, and the ixi.

Update:

4th faction has the skeith battle leader - Brute Squad.

A typical crew of brutish characters after war.

[Siniri]

One more faction left, eh? We have thieves, money, magic, and strength. Looks like we're missing the intellectually snobby.

P.S. "Everybody move!"

I thought that the money group came across as extremely snobby, especially the Lenny Lady.

[Siniri]

Blue, they've all come across as snobby, except maybe the thieves. I fully expect to see a video about how the obelisk only belongs in the hands of those of us who can understand it, not the stupid. And you posted while I was editing so I wouldn't double-post!

[Daze]

Is it my imagination or has this board been moved to a different location, then moved back?


If there is 1 more faction, I think it might be scholars/researchers.

[Chivewarrior]

For those of us who prefer to fight on the side of the good, it's a little disconcerting that there hasn't been anybody wanting to claim it for the protection of Neopia or some such. So far I'm leaning toward the thieves' guild-- he at least admitted that arcane objects are usually trouble.
