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. :)

Alakai immediately started to shy away a little. As in the lounge there sat another few people, all now turning their heads towards the door. This was just a few too many people paying attention to him for his liking. "Ah...I guess I'll join too..." He spoke slightly timidly, wondering once again if going here was a good idea.

One of those other people stood, turned around, and headed into their direction. He looked like a middle-aged man in a druid's clothing. "So you're the two Josie and June told me about huh?" He spoke casually. "I figured I should introduce myself first. I'm Sungrol, the guild leader. A level 22 summoner at the moment." Alakai frowned a little, finding it quite weird that he would introduce himself with his class and level like that. "Uhm...hi..." He answered. "I'm Alakai. I'm a monk though I'd rather not advertise my level." "That's fine I guess. People have started to distrust each other lately and we've only just met after all." Sungrol replied.

That made Alakai think even more. He hadn't noticed anything like distrust in the city. Then again the two of them were almost always on the road. And he had noticed that the atmosphere had changed a little compared to the first two days. Once Kali had introduced herself as well one of the people still sitting in the lounge spoke up. "We'll do introductions while drinking! Otherwise you'd have to keep standing there for another half hour!" The comment was met with a few chuckles. Indeed, there were another 7 people sitting there. So a total of 11 guild members. A small guild by any standards. It it would still take a while for them all to introduce themselves. Plus, having a few drinks to loosen up the mood would help as wel in Alakai's case.

Ansel made a mental note to take his food outside in the future. As apparently having a quiet meal was pretty much impossible in the guild hall. Though he didn't say anything about it. Eating outside wasn't that bad after all. It was something he already did quite often anyway.

Taunie started on explaining the mission. Though it still didn't give much detail. Even so her words were quite funny to him. He chuckled softly, looking at her as if she was crazy. "Me being good at hiding? I cause earthquakes and throw earth and rock around. And you expect me to be good at stealth? Besides, Valier...well, he can't fly for very long. So we wouldn't be able to rely on flying that much." The forest was an entirely different matter. He didn't hide, he scared people away so they wouldn't find him. "Look, it sounds like this job could be interesting. And I'm willing to help for the reward. But I really wouldn't expect much from me when it comes to stealth."

Ansel quickly continued eating, not wanting his plate to be thrown to the ground before he could finish his meal. He started stuffing his face as fast as he could swallow again, wanting to actually finish eating before more distractions came his way. Like the other two dragonslayers that had shown interest before, and hadn't come back to get answers yet.
A mansion like that could actually easily hold 20 people. ^^;; Depending on if you have multiple beds in bedrooms of course... Though this guild only had 10 members total. (the amount required to start a guild.)
Large post is large... I finished having Alakai respond to Kali's actions/words and realised I had already written 3 paragraphs. So I tried to shorten the rest a little bit...otherwise I could have probably written another 2 paragraphs. xD
Alakai sighed. He couldn't really relate to that feeling. He wasn't on good terms with his family and hadn't seen them in over a year. Friends weren't really a thing for him either. All he had were his games in the normal world. And now that he was here, nothing much had changed. Only now he was actually living a game rather than seeing it on a screen. Sure, Alakai still wanted to return to the normal world. But a large part of him also wanted to stay here. "Well, I guess there would be plenty of people feeling that way yea. Even if I'm not one of them..." He trailed off a little, feeling a bit awkward for admitting that. Though he didn't entirely know why.

"As for your mom's cooking...well, I won't pretend like I can replace something like that. But maybe if you tell me what kind of dish you'd like to eat, I can come up with a way to make it in this world in time. I might not be able to get it right after one, five, or even ten tries. But maybe I will get it right on the eleventh, or the try after that." Kali then mentioned the crab legs again. And though her idea sounded great, there was one big problem with it. "Maki rolls...I can't make those sadly. Not because I don't know how, but...well, I have yet to see anything like rice in this world. This world is big, so maybe one of the other parts of the country has rice. But with what we have right now it would be impossible sadly. Crab legs with creamy sauce should be doable though!"

The two had dessert after that. And not just any dessert. Ice cream. Making ice cream had been impossible before, as refrigerators didn't exist here. But a player that had picked the mage class had decided to earn some money while working at the inn. And with ice magic, it was now possible to make ice cream as well.

After dessert it was time to head to the guild headquarters. It was only a short ride to get there as the building stood right at the center of the city. It was the tallest and widest building to be found. Which was no surprise, as it was supposed to hold the guild halls of all the guilds in the area. "Now to see how this works..." Alakai mused as they stepped inside. In the game all you did was just walking up to a teleporter on the ground floor which would take you to your guildhall. But here, there was a desk with a receptionist sitting behind it. "Uhm, hello... We're...looking for the Log Horizon guild." He spoke, figuring he might as well ask. He had remembered the guild name from the status windows he had peeked at at the beach. As unlike him and Kali they didn't hide their information.

They were then directed to the second floor by the npc sitting behind the desk, and being told to find door number 203. So up the two went to the second floor, and finding door 203. "I guess we just knock..." Alakai mumbled, getting more unsure of himself by the minute. As it felt like they were going to a job interview or something. After knocking it took a little bit before the door opened. But the first person they saw was a familiar face. It was June. "I thought it would be you two! Come in! We were about to gather for a few drinks!" She spoke, stepping aside so the two could enter.

The inside was...quite a bit different from the houses they had seen in the city so far. Especially compared to the inn. The inside looked like that of a large and luxurious manor. Not something that would actually fit into the building it was in. So apparently the doors in the guild headquarters connected to different spaces or something. Alakai didn't want to think about it too much though, as he felt like that would just give him a headache at this point. "This place is huge..." He muttered, looking around. "And you're telling me this is the guild hall of a small guild?" He now wondered what the guild halls of guilds with lots of money would look like compared to this.

Eh, surprise me! :P
Girl gets thrown into another world and has to find four warriors to battle the forces of evil... As in, similar to Akatsuki no Yona? Because I'd be up for that as one of the warriors.

Oh, I'll have to add that I might not be able to keep to the one post every 2~3 days. Sometimes it might take 4~6 days. That being said, I am also someone that won't quit an rp easily.
Seems you're always busy. xD But take your time. If I feel like I need to wait for too long I can always look for another rp to fill the time. We can just keep on going at whatever pace you can go with. Though of course one post once a month or something would be a bit too slow even for me. ^^;;
"This is the first time I find out it's a common thing. Seems like all the dragons disappeared around the same time or something." Ansel mused just before his second plate of food arrived. He didn't know when the other dragons disappeared. But considering how he and the other two looked to be of similar age, it was safe to assume their dragons disappeared around the same time as well. Ansel quickly started eating again, though this time at a normal pace. Before he was really hungry. Now he was just filling his stomach to give him some energy.

Then suddenly a door flew open. Ansel didn't pause what he was doing, but his ears did focus in the direction of the commotion. It didn't take long for Taunie to see what was going on instead. So Ansel decided to focus on his food again. Once he was finished he could worry about other stuff. Right now eating was more important.

Though a minute or so later the man was once again interrupted. Taunie had come back, and without explaining anything wanted him to join her on a job. He sighed, pausing just long enough to say "geez, can't I even eat my food in peace in this place?". He continued chewing, only speaking again once he had swallowed. "Fine whatever. But I'm still eating while you talk, so a job...how about you explain what this job is about first before I say anything? Like I said earlier today I'm still focusing on recovering. So don't expect me to fight a wyvern or something just yet." Even at full capacity a wyvern would probably give him problems. He hadn't tested his strength against such a beast yet. But he knew from stories that they weren't anything to joke about.
"I wonder...do animals like that miss us? Or do they just patiently wait forever until we return like in the game?" Even in the game mounts didn't disappear when you got off of them. Though they did disappear and reappear next to you once you summoned them. "Ah well, we can't just ask Khronos since neither of us is a druid." He then added, shrugging slightly.

The ride back was pretty much uneventful. They encountered an animal or two, and one goblin that had wandered away from it's usual location, but Alakai ran past all of them, not wanting to deal with them at the moment. Once they got back though, the city felt...a little different. Like the atmosphere had changed a little. There seemed to be more people that were moping about. And there were a few groups, probably from larger guilds, that were proudly parading around. Alakai chose to ignore it though. It wasn't like he had any right to just walk up and tell people what to do. He didn't like it, but this wasn't the time or place to deal with such problems. Plus the both of them were tired.

Once they arrived at the inn Alakai ordered a dish with plenty of potatoes and vegetables, and only a bit of meat. However Kali seemed to not be in the mood for eating. She did order the same as him, but looked like she was pre-occupied with something else. Once they both had their food at their private table, he finally decided to ask what was going on. "Kali, you seem a little down? Or thinking about something? Is something wrong?" He asked casually just before taking a bite from his food.
