Thanks, I'll be here all week. *bows*
Nah, but jokes aside, glad if my silly lore stuff or banter have manged to bring forth laughter. :D

Case in point - all of you should bully me into getting this shit done.
Ah, the Bread Knights - quick, someone add them to the lore compendium, they'd blend in seamlessly.
Organically, even.
Bread Knights, the fiendish bread-based warriors of legend, remain one of the most terrifying foes I have encountered in all of Ansus. Bedecked in armor of bread and bearing weapons forged from the same victual, they are a fearsome sight to behold on the battlefield. I have dear listener, seen them cut down entire armies of men, without so much as a drop of their own blood being spilt upon the earth. Guided by the ancient stories, I have concluded that they must be some form of demon, impervious to the weapons of mortal men. The sole weakness I have discovered that the Bread Knights possess concerns the element of water and it is the only means by which one can penetrate the incredible strength of their wheat infused armor.
Their cruel chants still echo upon my ears when I am confronted by a loaf of wheat bread, "Bread! Bread for the Bread God!"
All determined by whether or not Ansur has white or wheat toast with his breakfast one fateful morning.
The legendary wheat toast of Ansur is a fabled slice of Halorian wheat bread that Ansur supposedly received for breakfast on the day of his death. Given to him by one of his favored disciples, the mystical food stuff has reappeared across all of Ansus in the following millennia. Although, it appears to be nothing more than a common slice of wheat bread, the legendary victual is clearly divine in origin. However, the exact nature of the divine magic that courses through the slice of bread is unknown, and not even the fabled wizards of Trelodi were able to fully comprehend the purpose of Ansur's most holy wheat bread. The stories that have survived about its origins claim that it bestows the bearer with a host of incredible powers, among them the ability to magically summon an army of so-called "Bread Knights" and to walk unimpeded through vast quantities of dough.
Gonna get a short post up today!
Momentarily interrupting all this discourse to apologize for the lack of activity on my end! Coursework has kind of been consuming my life.
I agree with all of you. @Dead Cruiser, @Vigfast, @Dawnscroll. It would be disheartening to be dropped out after I've created a post and a character, but if that's what ends up having to happen then I can deal with that. I wouldn't want something with such obvious promise to fall apart because it got to big for its boots.
