They say it's about the journey, not the destination. This is true of many things. Pizza delivery is not one of them.

TFW you know what you want to happen but the words aren't cooperating. Why is plot suddenly so much harder to write?

Bio

I am an adult, though I don't usually act like it. I'm a voracious reader, and not overly picky about books. I am artistic in a variety of areas, including music, drawing, writing, and sculpting. I have a minor obsession with dragons, and love the color violet. Fantasy is my preferred genre, be it past, future, urban...as long as it has a fantasy flavor to it. I also like scifi, mystery, and some horror. I am crazy, and I like tormenting my characters. But I don't bite...much. ^.~

@LordOfTheNight hope everything is sorted out now.
HEY EVERYONE! This is an official announcement thing. The GMs would like, since there's such a large cast, a quick "about the characters" kind of thing. For each main character, give us a one- or two-sentence description or a handful of words that give the essence of each. these can be added to your CS posts in the char tab, but it's mostly an OOC exercise.

I'll go first~

Valentine:
Traumatized princess with anxiety issues that finds refuge in photography and online.

Rhia:
Princess who tries to balance her duties with a normal life. Her extended family means a lot to her.

John/Sparks:
Aciras palace IT at your service! Geeky & easygoing.

@Eric Horst@lady horatio and one sporty ginger.

As a note, I've added two more (less important) chars to the char tab, though they're in the same post as the others.
>arson, assault, jaywalking

I like you, @Eric Horst
@lady horatio by all means bring your prince too!

@ayzrules I may need to make a guy just to balance things out. Maybe I'll bring in the local IT guy...
@buffykdh go for it.
@Metronome she's actually quite eloquent in her native tongue. But the grammar of English is quite different -- and she learned most of it in a very haphazard way. Her accent is far more singing than grunt.

*amused*
@madmonarchist Where does her title of holy roman empress come from? Is Holy Roman Empire another name for the nation? And what does HMR stand for? It's interesting that it was established as an empire but only ~100 years ago. I'm guessing this was probably a political move as opposed to a military one (though the military might have been involved).
"No!" Rhylaen made a slashing motion with one hand in a clear gesture of denial. "He attack, I can defend. But if want trust, need show trust." Wearing a suit would make her look like all the others that had tried entering the room, and besides they were bulky and uncomfortable. There was no point in her being different if she looked the same. She handled cold better than her human friends, at least in terms of atmospheric temperature. The pair of gloves she'd brought with would be plenty of protection, or so she figured. Of course, there was also the matter of placating the men of science. If she just went in without coming to an agreement, she'd never be allowed back in. "Give to Agent-Day, she come with," she suggested, as a way of appeasing them. "And I wear gloves, jacket." She held up the items she'd brought with, her poncho-like jacket with the slit for her wings, and her winter gloves. "Warm suits be scary. Look like monsters, if you not know what it is. Better to look like me. Yes?"
@Metronome hmm, true. *rewrites things*
