Current Currently buried in a number of things which I hope will benefit the Guild.

In some ways, the guildfall was a blessing. It makes it harder for my original 2009 RPing to be found...

I've finally returned to the Guild. Many months of much RPing ahead.

A thousand things to be done; plenty motivation.

Bio

Aeronautical Engineer
Irish
TV and Film addict

Been here on the guild since April '08, seen a lot of change but still love it. I've been on and off, I've GM'd fantastic projects and train-wrecks, it all comes with the territory. I once tried to make a YouTube ad for the guild because I'm slightly insane. In a weird place with the Guild right now, seems like so many names I knew are gone, but more than happy and ready to meet new people. Been writing casually for over a decade, a lot of that practice has been here. I have some small short sci-fi stories printed in anthologies but those are so heavily edited they don't even feel like mine any more.

When not on the Guild I'm most likely working, playing FFXIV or the Souls series or (insert recent must play video game).
Anyone with a passing interest in sci fi needs to read Saga by Brian K Vaughan.

@Flagg See the X on the map.


That's in the super spooky forest and essentially on my border. A border of a city focused on mining and building tunnels

I don't think a massive super-structure of catacombs would go unnoticed.
Just a quick FYI. Now split my NS into Main Ns and appendix, the latter containing any info which isn't in the initial sheet lay out.

It's long, so I don't expect it all to be read and remembered immediately, more acts a repository of information for now.
Potential race idea. Flagg seemed to want more, and I wanted at least three in Vrent.

Physical characteristics can and will be changed to make them more individual. Can make them into not-dwarves if needed.

Any time someone uses the word watches... I always think of ISO's watcher...

The watcher is watching... watching and waiting... for more watching.


I need to tell you this; you're avatar is incredibly off-putting
I'm not entirely sure what else constructive I could be doing until other people are online so as to decide on things with them.
With regards the map, I think I did a sufficient job of explaining where Vrentian Citadels are.

I aim to get my NS completely done soon and to wrap up the history ideas I'd been wokring on with people.

I'm just in no fit mental state to do so right now.*

*Hungover and in work.
WIP map:



Yellow = desert

Light blue = mountains

White = high mountains

Green = temperate (can be further defined by players)

Ok so start letting me know where you want to be, suggesting landmarks, changes, etc. The red dot to the south by the river delta is the location of Zar Dratha.


This is Panama

Did I miss anything super important in the 48 hours I've been gone?
Needs more ooc discussion.


A lot seems to happen on the chatzy which tends to detract from OOC posting.
Guys no! We must all be vanilla empires A through F.

Waking up to someone making such a complaint really boiled my blood. It's a fantasy setting. If someone wants to have sentient mushrooms I'm sure Flagg would approve if it was well written.

I'd rather see well written unique nations than six bland empires so maybe to shake your Internet phallus elsewhere? If people wanted similarly cohesive nations, based on fact it'd be a historical or alt-history setting.

Your opinion is there is a lack of cohesion. My opinion is that we're still in the world building stage and to make what is essentially nothing other than a shrouded insult is very annoying.

On brighter news, welcome Mr Khan! No you can't play as the red city as my city is already red and I must 1 up you and be cooler.
<Snipped quote by Darkmatter>

I think I now have the inspiration to the mythical creation story of the city.


AND HARK! The great progenitor doth say: Bite my shiny metal ass.

Ok team-

Update! We now have exactly seven cities, plus some other factions. We're still open for both faction and city NSes, and I will change the uh title of the roleplay to reflect how many cities we actually get.

Anyone have any skills as a fantasy cartographer that wants to work with me on a map?


Damn you flagg! I was speaking the chat about my fruitless attempts at making maps.
