Bio

Hello all who have deigned to grace my profile with their presence! I am the great Arrayah, lord of the Phoenix. Or something. I don't know.

Anyways, bio. As of writing this, I am a 23 year old female. I am married. I own two dogs (a Dalmatian and a Labrador... so cliche). I work from home. I like crafty stuff and games. I used to be an MMORPG girl, but have since moved on to things like Minecraft and Ark as well as Rimworld and Dwarf Fortress. Who knows what's next?

I love writing, but only get to roleplaying a few times every couple years. Unfortunately, life gets in the way. I'm starting to have more time lately, and thought it'd be fine to start it up again. We'll see how it goes, but hopefully I stick around this time.

I was on the old RPGuild, so you may recognize my name. If so, hello again! If not, maybe we'll have lots of fun together. If I've been online recently, and you're interested in doing an RP, feel free to PM me. I'm almost always interested in 1x1s as long as I don't have too many going on. Check some of my old threads to see my rules, or pm me if that's too much hassle.

Long live the Phoenix Queen. Or something or other.

Sounds good to me. By the way, love having you around. I'm super good with character development, but I'm terrible with like... environment. So every time you come up with and describe it, you get even more awesome! xD
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww he wanted to bond. That's so cute.
GW2 is fun, but it's got some issues. Though it doesn't have a sub, so that's always a plus. I used to play WoW, but it was just too expensive once I left home. Too many bills and not enough money. I personally really like Tera though. It's free now, and even awesomer than WoW. I play GW2 because of peer pressure :p

I completely agree with Elder Scrolls! I once played on a private WoW RP server. It was a lot of fun, but only when you know people. And yeah, it's harder because you have to.. put your character out there as well as yourself. It's not like this where you're like heeeeeyyy wanna RP with me? It's more like HEY YOU RP WITH ME NOW, and that's scary sometimes. But once you get into it is fun. Though I'm not sure I'd recommend you do it on Elder Scrolls. Too glitchy and just... ew..
When Hide began to move, Kiara gasped, her hands gripping the table tightly. Why were they always forgetting that she could feel it too? It was a good skill to have, for it allowed her to pinpoint what was wrong and where, but until they were healed, she was just as miserable. Luckily, this didn't usually take too long. She was so focused on her breathing that she barely registered what was going on right in front of her. That was until she felt the heat of Adrian's anger. He was projecting it without even realizing it, she expected. It was uncomfortable, though, and she was slightly relieved when he left.

"Hide..." Like it had always been when she'd spoken to him, her voice was soft, in an effort to be comforting. She bit her lip as she remembered how much better at this her mother was. It was hard to push the feeling of loss away, but she did it. After all, thinking of her mother led her to thinking of her sister, and thinking of both would just force her back into bed, something she could not do right now. So, Kiara tried her best to only focus on the man who was in hurt in front of her. "Hide, don't worry... I'll go help her alright? But I need you to rest. Please stop moving, for your sake... and for mine."

With that, she stroked his forehead, gently, one last time. She was better than aspirin after all. When Kiara was sure that he would be fine as long as he didn't get up again, she went into the other room where Adrian was now talking to those that had gathered there. For a few moments, it was silent, and she couldn't help but put her head in her hands. She knew what she needed to do, what she needed to say, and still she could not. There was no way the words could leave her mouth without them thinking she was insane, just as they had thought the girl was.

So, she was thinking of a different approach instead. Kiara could help the girl, just as she'd promised Hide, but that didn't mean she'd have to tell them about the dreams, the omens. That would need to wait until things were... she would tell them on Friday when everyone was feeling better, excited possibly. Or would that be a worse time? Her hands pressed harder into her face, trying to figure out what she should do. She could not feel the wounds of the girl, but they didn't look too terrible. So, when she walked over, poking and prodding just as she had with Hide, Kiara gave her a look of apology. "Could I tend to her? Now that we've decided we don't think she's responsible?" she said to the people around her.

To the girl, she said very quietly, hoping that the others would not hear. "I'll help you. I know it wasn't you, so don't be frightened." She looked up at the girl again, trying to make her eyes warm and trustworthy like they'd once been before continuing, "I believe you... I won't hurt you, but I can't heal you if I'm not sure what they did.."
Good luck! Are you doing patterns and such? Those are my favorite. I have a blue belt, but haven't actually done anything with it since high school.
OH GW2 why do you insist on distracting me from homework and fun RPS? D:
They had not talked for an entire day, Kiara and Ostus that was. Her reasons were that she needed time to herself, time he had interrupted the day before. She'd been trying to come to terms with exactly what she was doing because, despite what Ostus seemed to think, it really wasn't simple. Perhaps he'd see why that was when they reached Berinike. He wouldn't be able to understand how different she acted from how she was expected to act. Of course, in her own home it was accepted even if her mother was always bugging her about it.

In Berinike this would not be the case. She would be expected to act like a princess, a queen even, for that is what she would soon be. There would be no running around by herself. No archery, well maybe archery since they did take much pride in their military, but probably not for her. It was less her station and more her gender, though, that was the problem. She'd be expected to tend affairs and keep house. Any power she had in Astora would belong to her husband.

That was the worst of it for her. Of course she longed to continue with the freedom to be who she really was, but Kiara was more worried for her people. This would save them from immediate harm, that was true, but would it save them in the long run? When her parents were dead and she was queen... well. Perhaps Ostus did not know that the country would no longer be under her rule, it would be under her husbands.

There was a lot to think about when it came to this entire truce, and so she tried to take the time to think about it and to gain the courage to go through with it head held high. His reasons for keeping quiet were unknown to her. Ever since she'd actually agreed to pay for his horse he'd been giving her strange looks, though she could not figure out what they meant. Was he... guilty? She let out a laugh. No, that couldn't be it.

Suddenly, a presence came much too close to her for comfort and was talking into her ear. "What you laughing about miss? Perhaps you're just excited to meet me?" Kiara could not see the man who belonged to the voice, but she could smell the stench of ale on his breath, and her patience was running thin.

If only she was not pretending to be married, she could just stick her dagger in the man's gut and move on with her life. Unfortunately, she was supposed to be a caring wife. It was enough to make her sick. "I'm sorry, sir. I'm afraid I have a husband waiting for me somewhere around here," she told him, her smile wide. Where on earth had that useless soldier gone, anyway?

The man came even closer to her, something she had thought impossible, his disgusting breath in her face. "Well he's not here, now, is he?" The knife was looking so good right now, but Kiara just knew if she used it Ostus was going to go out of his mind. Not that she cared. Actually, it had been an entire day since the last time she had gotten an entertaining reaction from him. She eyed her left boot where it was hidden, considering.
I'll put the skip in my post and just see how Kiara feels xD

I'll probably move either a couple hours later, or to the second night.
I think we should skip ahead yes, but I'm not sure which we should go to.

Would you like me to do the time skip in my post, or wait until yours? And which would you rather? Either works for me, though with the terms they're on right now, the first night will most likely go like this:

"Shut up."

"No you shut up."

etc, etc

Also, aw... a subdued Ostus is kind of sad.
Well it's getting to the time when people get off work and school, so I'm sure it'll happen soon enough :p
