Bio

A writer, artist, animator, worldbuilder. In short, jack of all trades, master of some.

For the most part, I've retired from roleplaying. For quite a long time, what kept me tied to RPG was the Spam community—but even that I have distanced myself from. Now, my focus is on the writing contests.

I consistentlytry to write reviews for RPGC, and I consistently enter the Twelve Labours.

First labour; world of Archipelago, Jack.
Challenge: an unwelcome death.
For next entry: characterization.

Second labour; world of Uberpowered, Émile.
Challenge: an unfortunate fortune.
For next entry: pacing.

Third labour; world of Cinderlore, Caerys.
Challenge: an unforgiving ambition.
For next entry: proofreading.

Fourth labour; world of Supers, Joshua.
Challenge: an uncompromising betrayal.
For next entry: development.

Fifth labour; world of Mutamorphis, Olrich.
Challenge: an unrepressed motive.
For next entry: development, dammit.

Sixth labour; world of Mythos, Melas.
Challenge: an untenable alliance.
For next entry: dénouement.

Seventh labour; world of Hatemongers, Talahn.
Challenge: an unbearable sacrifice.
For next entry: cast utilization.

For next entry: plot cohesion.

Ninth labour; world of Nardja, Albiorn.
Challenge: an unknowing accomplice.
For next entry: narrative set-up.

Tenth labour; world of Magestones, Ariana.
Challenge: an unwilling inspiration.
For next entry: narrative set-up, dammit.

Well, I guess all went wrong, but at least I'm not dead.

In Legend of Renalta 2: Reborn → 10 yrs ago Forum: Advanced Roleplay

Aëyr, selkie. Western Watch Tower.
Slippery, Stealthy, Endurance Training; running and aquatic conditions.

This was most certainly not what she had been expecting when the girl—Meryl, it would appear—stated an intention of challenging them to a game of chess. Aëyr was decidely less than happy with how this had suddenly turned out. While by no means a skilled tactician, she was even less suited to full frontal combat, and there was nowhere to hide and little room to run.

Just as she was hoping to take advantage of a certain loophole imposed by the creator of the game, her companions leapt into the offensive, leaving Aëyr little choice but to follow suit. She would enjoy nothing less than to simply run forward and sweep the little girl into her arms, effectively terminating the engagement. And yet, with the unseen protector lurking somewhere in her presence, and her own less than ideal protection at the moment, she felt it unwise. If she was lucky, her companions would reveal the man's location, so that she could more easily evade him and catch the girl.

For now, however, she would do well to fight.

Unslinging her sling once more and nestling a round stone into its fabric, she lightly skipped to her left while keeping her eyes fixed on the enemy line, hoping to stay an unpredictable target for the skeletal archers' arrows. Only a couple steps laters, she flattened her feet and skidded her feet to a halt, giving one last swing to her weapon and launching a stone towards the left-most succubus.

I was just wondering, do I have to worry about reading anything "secret"—such as in your hiders in the first IC post—in other players' posts?

In How do most spam games work? → 10 yrs ago Forum: Spam Forum

Beyond the classic games like "Men vs. Women Race to 1000" and its ilk, as well as the Rabbit Doubt offshoots, there are two breeds of game which seem to be what you are looking at. These are Spam interactives, and unlike the former game type, are usually Spam-member focused, much like Rabbit Doubt.

The first type is the Blorb-like, most famously used by Elendra. Each player is given a character, and they post a command for their specific character. Then the host makes a story post, often with a picture for clarity, explaining the effects of each character on the environment. Usually, emphasis is placed on teamwork, though competitive play sometimes arises.

The second is the MSPA-like, also used in the original Blorbs run, I believe called Interactivia. In this, all players control a single character. Multiple people post commands, and the host selects one to use for their story post.

I'm so happy about how that all turned out.

When we finish this, I might just put it in a text editor and print it out as a little personal book of memories. :D
