Bio

I have been actively roleplaying for around 18 years now, since age 15. Which, as you might have guessed, makes me 33. I've done most of my rping on forums, averaging 2 to 4 paragraphs. Though I also LARP, and have played D&D for about 17 years. Real life has become a larger part of my life though, so my activity has lessened. Even so, I don't think I'll ever stop rping. :)

No problem. :) Stuff like that happens. I have a bachelor party for a friend today, tomorrow a family gathering, and next week the wedding of the same friend. :P
"Sounds expensive..." Alakai spoke, not sure if he was happy with expenses like that. Though he chalked that up to him just not liking diversions from the plans he had in his head. "Well, it'll help in the long run if we can find an enchanter to put something good on it. Maybe more mana regeneration or intellect." The man then took out the new pair of swim shorts he had bought, holding them up. "I hope you don't mind I bought this... The briefs you made are great but...you know..." Right away Alakai was starting to feel awkward again, so he decided to instead quickly change the subject.

"So...since we've seen the shops, off to the beach right?" He spoke, stepping towards the beach as he spoke. "I wonder if there's anyone else trying to enjoy the beach. Somehow I doubt it though...people seem to still be afraid of this world, even with how powerful we are here." Alakai himself had gotten used to it pretty much. The world was huge out there, if the game's map was anything to go by. But if they took things slowly and didn't go to high level area's too soon things would be fine.

Once on the beach first looked around to make sure nothing bad was going on. But as he had suspected, the area around the town itself was empty of monsters apart from a few rather large crabs. They were harmless though, even moving to another spot the moment they noticed he and Kali were walking towards them. So it looked like things would stay peaceful for them.

(Next post, with a bit of luck, I'll introduce the other people I was talking about a while back. :) )
Sanguine didn't plan on using the portal because that would draw too much attention. Several people suddenly appearing in the middle of a small town, or a wealthy person and her entourage passing through. It was quite easy to see which had less possibility to cause problems later on. She just wanted to use the mirror to spy on the place ahead of time. Being prepared could make the difference between winning or losing, in any dangerous situation. Not that she expected danger, but it was good to be prepared nonetheless.

However her worries proved to be correct the moment the village came into view. It didn't at all look peaceful any more. People in armour, some on horseback, were running through the village while people without armour were running for their lives. The woman's eyes widened, not even hesitating on whether they should do anything or not. Of course they had to do something...if possible at least. They hadn't exactly been able to test their abilities against the locals yet after all. But now was not the time for such thoughts. She quickly stepped out of the room again, wanting to find Oliver as quickly as possible. Luckily the man had been quick to put on his armour, as she met him just as she exited the room.

"Oliver! Good! The village is under attack for some reason. I planned to go by carriage, but I think we should go there immediately to see if we can do anything. I guess we're getting a chance to test our power in this world sooner than I expected." The portal was only usable once a day, but this felt like the right time to use it. It wouldn't sit well with her if they went there normally only to find that everyone was killed, considering they could likely do save the village right now if they used a portal.
"Just a glass of-- A glass of blood will be fine." Sanguine replied, not exactly feeling comfortable about asking for blood to drink. It would probably take quite a while to get used to that. Jeeves bowed and left to get his mistress' drink, leaving the two alone in the room for a bit. She sighed and leaned on the table in the few moments they had without servants in the room. "Putting up an act for all the npc's is tiring." She mused, looking up at Oliver for a moment. "I feel like something will go wrong if I just acted like myself. At least for now." As loyal as all the npc's seemed, it might change at any moment for all they knew, for whatever reason. And who knew what was out there. So many things were still so uncertain. "Well, enough of that. I'm sure we'll get more clarity once we get to that village." The woman straightened up again a few moments before the door opened. It was Jeeves again, this time carrying a glass of blood on a plate.

After breakfast it was time to get ready to depart. So Sanguine started with the obvious. "Jeeves, prepare the carriage, and tell Daniƫlle we'll be leaving for the nearby village in half an hour." The butler bowed with a 'Right away my lady' before quickly leaving to make arrangement. The vampiress wanted to take at least one of the npc's with them, in case something happened that they couldn't easily handle on their own. It seemed unlikely, but they didn't have enough information on this world yet to be certain of anything. In the mean time she wanted to check out the village through the scrying mirror one more time to see if anything had changed. "I'll be in the portal room while you get ready as well." She spoke to Oliver. "It's probably a good idea to wear your armour, even if the village seemed peaceful. I'd rather be on the safe side for now."
Sorry it's taking me longer now. Just came back from a LARP weekend. ^^;;
I doubt most countries have symbols for freedom specific to their country. ^^;; I personally have a phoenix on my right shoulder. I decided to keep it relatively small so I could cover it up if needed. (some kinds of work require that over here at least.)
What's with the sudden question about freedom? xD

Also, it's not about winning or losing. It's about having fun at larp. And I did have fun, though i might switch to another larp since this one has been going down hill for a bit... (Also we totally won of course. :P)
Freedom? Uuuhh...I dunno... We don't really have a symbol for it I guess?
My next post is going to have to wait I think. Need to prepare for LARP today, and clean up the house a little before I go. Maybe I'll have the time, but otherwise until monday/thuesday!
"Good morning to you too." A slight tint on her cheeks both from the kiss and realizing that he had been awake for a bit already. "I don't see what's there to liberate." Sanguine answered to his question. "The village looked peaceful, so the monsters seem to be sticking to hiding places like forests and probably caves as well. Though I do plan to go there at least. There is no faster way to gain information than to get it from the locals after all. I'll meet you in the dining room in a bit. I want to tidy up first." Her hair was a complete mess now, standing in pretty much all directions except straight upwards. Clothing would be easy for now. She would be wearing her necromancer robes except for the cape, as she planned to leave for the village as soon as possible. They didn't know how much time it would take to finish their business there after all.

Sanguine headed for the dining room about five minutes later. As expected, Oliver was already there. For some reason guys were always faster at times like this, even when she tried to be quick. The servants had already started preparing the room again. Though this time it was less fancy of course. No live music this time, for one. Still, it felt a lot more fancy than how she used to eat breakfast. Which usually consisted of a simple sandwich while checking up on her e-mails and such. Though she wondered if there was any kind of breakfast for her prepared as well. She didn't exactly feel hungry yet at least.
