*throws moles around at people* Second best weapon, next to kitties. At least you can't spread disease too.

Head *and* Body lice.....

Body lice can spread epidemic typhus, trench fever, and louse-borne relapsing fever.

Oops, I missed that... D'you know if they can produce fertile offspring together? Cuz otherwise, they're different species, even if they look similar and the only difference is where they lay their eggs.

Oook, updates again :)

The following people have received their blurb:

*added* Whew! So far the following people have their magic info:
-Nem
-Squee
-Bunnita
-ChaoticLaw
-Logrin (I sent it to Nem to look over first, you should get it tonight :) )
-Tyko
-Me
-Churro

Everyone by Goldmarble, basically and I'll get to yours as soon as I can!

Is everyone fairly confident on their magic? I guess I must have explained things fairly well since it seems no one has questions, lol

:(

I feel all left outs....

It's just 'cause I don't have your stats yet! Don't worry, I'm sure Nem's all over it and I'll have the info I need tm. I'll send yours as soon as I can *hugs*

In the mean-time you can still read the first IC post *shrugs*

*added* Actually I'm dumb and I have sent Nem your blurb, she's just checking it over for me and then will pass it along...sorry!!

Stats are on the sheet if it helps? Nem told me to put'em there, so I did.

Lol, you posted as I edited...

I feel like I did a really bad job guessing. XD. Ohwell, it will just make it more interesting. Ill go shead and put my stats on my sheet. I also just realized this but YAY another owl!! :D

Just a quick question regarding where the roleplay takes places. What province and city are we in?

Yep! Another owl :) I debated going with a kestrel instead, but since burrowing owls are diurnal and tiny I think theres a mouth difference between our two :)

Southern Alberta, by the rocky mountains...no specific town but its small.

If you guys like I can pick a specific town, but otherwise assume its a 1 hour drive and you can pretty much always see mountains on the horizon.

You also don't necessarily need to be in the same town as Mellie, Although the same province would make it much easier for us to arrange to have you all wind up in the same spot. :)

Well then, it appears Tyko's history needs a small tweak.

edit: There, the Vaara's are now in Okotoks, Alberta.

Edit 2: Jahki, a 10 hour drive to the mountains? Can't be that much, having been a passenger and finally driven through Alberta multiple times, you aren't seeing the mountains 10 hours away by car. Those 110 kph speed limits on the Trans Can and other highways as soon as you hit the foot hills mean you're around 700-800 km away from the mountains in 10 hours (accounting for food and gas breaks), which would have us in Saskatchewan. Even just hitting Lethbridge the mountains are tiny on the horizon, which is about 125 km from the mountains. About 1.5 to 2 hours.

Yeah, from B.C., with family in Sask...done that trip a lot.

So are we free to begin posting? I hope so sense I'm working on my IC now XD

Edit: Derp nevermind. I just saw the note on the bottom. *Back to writing*

~BOING!!!!!!!!!!~

Wows! Lurvs the opening post! Surreal and sorta... creppy, dun kno why by gives this bunny shivers. k, so will edit in that Polly is from Montana and snuck across the border and is hitching a ride to Lethbridge. And sooooo... for the magic, how much do we reveal on our charrie sheets?

Goldmarble, you are correct. My stupid phone auto corrected me. It should be 1 hour, ive fixed it. Thanks!

Bunnita, just put up your stats for now. We might add more later on, but i havent decided yet.

Ahhh, sorry for going into detail then. Damned phones and their autocorrect fixing things that don't need fixin!

No worries, im in Edmonton myself so as soon as I saw your comment I was like 'OMG, who takes 10 hours to do a 10 hrs drive...lol' :) im glad you pointed it out for everyone who doesn't live in the region!

Ugh.....trying to drive 10 hours out there? Jesus....I'd crash. Just so......straight. The horizon...never changing. Hypnotizing....

I'll stay here in BC. I like my corners :P

Even when jerkbags come screaming around the corner in your lane? Or tailgate and make you whip around those corners at 120k!? Lol, we go to the plans can for vacation every year and the drive about kills me each time!

More on topic ;)

Chaotic, I keep forgetting to say this: I love your intro :)

Someone asked what the shields were like, I'm going to attempt to explain.

The shields are made of magical energy, they anchor best to a physical part of their own element (a water mages shield will hold best over water, ect) and it will draw power directly from the person or people creating it. They are invisible, and a very strong shield is also impenetrable. Weak shields flicker and can collapse entirely.

A shield draws its attributes from the elements held by the person or people controlling them and each element has strengths and weaknesses. Obviously the strongest shield is one created by multiple mages and encompassing all elements, but it is also influenced by affinities.

Ex: our ice mages shield will encourage and danger to slide off, but if pushed too hard will shatter. An earth shield is very strong and steady, but completeky impenetrable which sounds great unless youre stuck outside its protection.

Everyone will be able to hold a single shield at once, the exception being some mages will be able to funnel their power to a channeled who holds the shield and work magic as well. However since they're focused elsewhere their element/attributes won't have as strong as an effect on the shield.

In the beginning the shields will be randomly flickering, triggered mainly by anxiety or sudden startlement. This could lead to someone tripping on a shield, or running into one...then the next second nothings there.

Make sense???
