[OOC] The Path to Godhood

[Life in Stasis]

Sorry this took so long!

And just to clarify once my character enters it won't be in first person. That was mostly for the introduction.

I was struggling with starting the story. I spent all last week in a languor feeling sorry for myself, and I barely managed another post I already owed. The first post I wrote for you was utter crap. It's still there in my drafts like a crumpled piece of paper in the bin, partly because I just haven't bothered to delete it, and partly because I like to keep everything I write for posterity. But every time I opened the doc, that repugnant mess would stare at me bleakly and dare me to do better.

And sadly I couldn't.

And then I started playing Neverwinter Nights to sort of gather some better inspiration about a fantasy setting. I was stuck on a singular idea and it was a bad one. So I made a new one.

I also saw this picture.

And it gave me ideas.

Now you have a post.

TL;DR, feel free to post your character sheet in the sheets section. I'll add mine when it becomes relevant.

Woah, this is trippy. I've never done of these before; I didn't know you could contain everything in one little bubble!

Now that I'm done having a tiny attention span, (Edit:I wrote this and then clicked on the picture; my attention span went away again), we can do this! I'll checkk out your post, I should have one for you tomorrow

Oh yes, I love the compact nature of these threads. They're so organized. Most people won't bother to read them either, but it's good to have kind a public, accessible RP "portfolio".

Question before I post; how would you like me to throw her in?

[Life in Stasis]

@headintheclouds What do you mean? At the end of my post I wrote that the Lord Mayor was going to send for her, because two elven priests are waiting for her there and they want to see her before they uncurse the tree.

So I mean, unless she wants to climb out of a window I assume you'll start with her being brought there by the mayor's aide or a guard or whatever throwaway npc you'd like to make up. I think I described the peaceful, prosperous state of the human city pretty well.

[headintheclouds]

You did; your post was absolutely lovely. I just wanted to ensure that you weren't expecting anything in particular for her entrance.

Also apologies that I haven't posted yet; work has decided to suck all of my energy into cannon cleaning and paperwork filing.

[Life in Stasis]

@headintheclouds No rush! I have plenty to worry about on my end.

[headintheclouds]

Also, for the record, I wasn't kidding about the cannon.

[headintheclouds]

My post is so much shorter than yours, would you like me to add more?

[Life in Stasis]

Nah it's cool. I believe in writing enough, not writing to fill space.

I will reply tomorrow.

[headintheclouds]

Sure.
