And do you expect to do that all at the same time as the rest of the characters? Or will we go to the Keep individually, meet with Jon or underling, and then be sent somewhere to wait?

I would believe they would arrive at different times. Like I imagine Cyrus and Lavinia meeting the others at the Keep.

So gervaise21 heathenoxman NeverlandHunter NimlowynYeah, it's going to take longer than I expected for Cyrus and Lavinia to get to Ferelden. They still got more conversations to go. So you guys characters should meet up until we can Cyrus and Lavinia to Gwaren. Also for everyone, please add you avatars every time you post and if you have NPCs you want to take with you guys then please PM me about the NPCs avatar, character, and personality. I still highly recommend adding music, pictures to your posts to make the thread immersive!

Right I'm standing in the Courtyard of the Keep. I imagine I could get this far without being challenged because on the whole with those big castles you could do that. So what do I see and who do I present myself to. Just don't want to contradict anyone on this. Then presumably I am taken to the Great Hall to meet Jon. It would be helpful to know the décor but not essential. I was thinking I would announce myself and my purpose and then stop, because presumably Jon would need to answer me.

If I recall correctly, in DAO Dagna mentions that it takes roughly two weeks to travel from Orzammar to the Circle Tower.
Lavinia and Cyrus will be traveling from one remote location in southwestern Orlais, the Dales, to another remote location in southeastern Ferelden, Gwaren. Looking at the map, I'd guess this would likely take at least a month and a half, given the distance and the Frostback Mountains.
So Lavinia and Cyrus' interactions are taking place a bit farther back in time than the other characters in Gwaren. Perhaps 1-3 days before they arrive?
I imagine Lavinia and Cyrus' travel time will be written as a time lapse, so we can arrive in Gwaren as quickly as possible while preserving pacing.

Yeah that's it. Perhaps one or two conversations between the two before the time skip?

I would suggest something like a last scene of them getting into their carriages, and then a scene of them dismounting their carriages in Gwaren, with some details about the journey.

smilesjaShouldn't Teyrn Jon reply first? And do you want my character to meet Teyrn Jon the way Ellas is, or just to start at point where she's already gone through meeting him and is now waiting in location X for the other members and then she can reflect on her meeting with him and write a letter informing her employer of all that's going on? Added: I would prefer waiting at some location or heading to a meeting location, like a tavern, to meet the others, and reflecting on her meeting with Teyrn Jon. I can message you about the specifics of how it went down with a slight collab and this way heathenoxman can skip ahead to arriving at the meeting location too, if they so wish to do so. It'll be simpler than all of us going one after the other to the Keep to hear from Jon and then be sent somewhere regardless.

Teryn won't reply just yet. Go meet the Teryn next to Elias first.

Nimlowyn gervaise21 NeverlandHunterAll right so the plan so far: All characters should meet up at the keep and probably interact with each other. Lavinia and Cyrus should arrive after you three. With gervaise21 help, I'm going to do an NPC post with the Teryn doing corrupt things and briefing the group. I like NeverlandHunter idea of having all three characters meeting in a Tavern somewhere and Neverlandhunter can writer her letter there. Lavinia and Cyrus will join the rest of the group after wards. Nimlowyn

As mentioned before Lavinia and Cyrus will undertake the mission for a very different reason.

It wouldn't make much sense that Ellas didn't take notice of Rhian in the room if she was there already and it wouldn't make much sense for her to burst in at this point, just as Ellas was announced.
The notice on the board told people to present themselves to the Teyrn and didn't give a specific time to do so, so I would think that the candidates would go to meet the Teyrn at differing times.

Why don't I just have Rhian waiting somewhere in private, finishing up her letter, and mulling over her previous meeting with the Teyrn. It's as good as actually meeting him without having to push the character here and there.

Enter where? You just agreed it wouldn't make sense for Rhian to burst into the room while Ellas is being announced, correct?
And I'm still of the mind that it wouldn't make sense for them to all happen to go to meet the Teyrn on the same day.
Edit: I just saw your last post. So, I'll have Rhian waiting at whatever location or alternatively just at a spot, thinking to herself, and there is now a set date that the Teyrn has for the characters to meet up.

I forgot to mention one thing. The Jon post is where he'll punish a bard for singing a song that's critical to him. Jon will punish the Bard by throwing him into a dungeon, where he'll get his tongue removed. gervaise21 said he's going to rescue the Bard in the dungeon. So if anyone is interested in joining him, you can go right ahead.

Okay, things are seemingly a little confused right now, so I made a rough timeline-- feel free to correct (many a guesses were made here and I know Thedas has its own calendar months, but I'm not going through the headache of attempting that because I don't think the months match up nice and easy). Also, smilesja said we were in early spring, so I'm going off that.
Early April: Lavinia and Cyrus meet
Late April: Rhian sets off on a ship from Denerim to Gwaren
Later April: Ozek chills out in the Brecilian Passage a distance from Gwaren
Even later April: Rhian arrives in Gwaren and learns about the Teyrn's task
A day later April: Rhian gets outfitted at the markets and then meets Teyrn Jon at his Keep
Perhaps that night April: Ellas entertains at a tavern and then goes and meets with the waifs under his care
The next day April: Ellas, under a pseudonym, meets Teyrn Jon.
Probably the same day April: Rhian sends a letter off and reflects
[To be added to, and maybe I'll figure out Thedas calendar days at some later point and change that around]
