WANTED: Dead or... DEAD
~~~
September 19th, 3104, approximately 9:30pm. "Do you have anything to say for yourself?" ...those were the words that echoed inside my mind for the entire night. "This looks really bad for the entire militia. You do know that, right?" There wasn't much I could say, and there was still evidence of dried blood on my spear. I tried to explain the situation to the best of my ability. "I was just sitting down and organizing my backpack under a torch. The next thing I knew, I had a knife to my neck..." A human rogue had attacked me just hours prior, I had no choice but to kill her. The incident was completely unprovoked, but apparently the militia doesn't want too much blood on their hands right now, at least not when it comes from the tip of *my* spear... Luckily, I didn't receive any demerits or unfair punishment; mostly just a few harsh words and a furlough for the next shift. You could say that I ultimately did pay for my murderous action, as I was essentially slain by a Griffin shortly afterward. I finally came to at the base of the Commons tunnel, but I could barely remember anything that had transpired. Apparently, an icky, "scaled one" managed to find my lifeless corpse near an Orc encampment and dragged me to safety. I have no idea why he actually did this, but seeing that he appeared to practice necromancy, it wasn't nearly that shocking... I've been reminiscing a bit about Everfrost and Halas lately; probably something to do with the explicit lack of snow and ice here. I've been hearing stories of Velious and Thurgadin, and to be painfully honest, I'm kind of jealous. I think I'd fit in nicely over there, but only time will tell, I imagine. For now, my work here is with the militia... ~~~ [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] (Receiving a verbal reprimand from Armorer Dellin for murdering a player in self-defense)

I have read all of your chapters so far, and found them highly entertaining and fun to read!
A much different style of writing compared to the others who have created RP-themed stories, which makes yours stand out to me. I also like the way you style and format the actual text you wrote in, that was a really nice touch that added an element of substance that goes beyond just the well-written story. I agree with the above, please create your own thread with this wonderful story and character! You might find more people will read it that way, as you unfortunately attached your nice story within a thread I created. (Not that I mind, but you deserve more attention for your creation and some people may not even bother to see it as their personal feelings may hinder them from reading a thread I have created.) | ||

I don't mind having your thread be the incubator for this stuff, because it actually just came about from a silly joke on the first page, and kind of took a life of its own. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I'll link the new thread here when I post it. I didn't originally have the intent of journaling this PVP-flagged character on blue, but it has been a fun project for me and gives some actual purpose to playing such a strange "class." It's also been fun to wax nostalgic on all of this old game lore than I haven't seen in so many years... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

That being how a thread or even a single post in a thread can be this organic idea that blooms into other organic ideas which continue to branch off into other ideas... To me this is a form of creativity in itself, which is exactly why I find the forums fun. It's interesting how people's words bounce off eachother and create different thoughts/feelings etc. Anyway, looking forward to more of your writing, thanks for presenting it here on the forums.

H.M.S. Fish Scales...
~~~
Friday, October 13th, 3104, 11:45p.m. Apparently, Fur Lined Boots and fish entrails on a wet pier do not a good combination make... I lost my footing, slipped, and fell straight into the ocean as the boat starting moving. Everyone just sat there, laughing, as the boat sailed away. I managed to tread water enough to grab ahold of a canoe and pull myself onto a low dock. I think I'm just going to curl up here in embarrassment until I dry off... Now, I need to go explain why I have to take the next midnight ship out... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I guess that's what I get for being so awful at fishing. While I was fishing though, I couldn't help but overhear a story about a Darkwater Piranha that is rumored to swim the Nektulos Forest river... [You must be logged in to view images.

Need a Rusty Dagger?) ~~~ Sunday, October 15th, 3104, 3a.m. The Port Authority had some sort of issue with the ship's manifest, so it was delayed an entire day, but we finally made it. I'm setting up a camp here on the Sisters' island in the Ocean of Tears. We are allowed 14 hours at port, so I'm having a look around until we cast off again. Some dwarves over the hill were kind enough to let me use their campfire and even their axe to cut some wood. A Gnome asked me about Spirit of the Wolf magic while I was perusing the Sisters' wares, but he immediately seemed very hesitant after he caught a glimpse of my red Symbol of Discord...
