The Sixth Blight

Works for me. Maas will carry Isala if you order it. If you don't, he won't; he still hates Saarebas. *shrugs* What can I say? He is a stubborn Qunari.

The Sixth Blight

Doesn't the Joining also require a drop of Archdemon blood? And yes, a time skip would be good.

The Sixth Blight

Maas looked down at the offered goblet, the foul stench even worse from up close. In it, he saw a future of battling Darkspawn. He saw himself standing atop the Archdemon's broken skull, stabbing it with Orn. He saw the honor, the duty, and - most of all - the sacrifice.

He looked at the dwarf, who had taken the goblet so easily. Their eyes met. Both merely watched the other, silent and waiting.

He looked at the Saarebas, unconscious on the ground, but most certainly alive. She still shuddered and twitched occasionally; whatever was happening must have been terrible.

He looked at the half-elf, now gone from this world, just like that. The very same fate could await him, whether he took the goblet or not.

He looked at the Commander, his eyes solemn and serious. Those eyes left no doubt: if this was done, his path would be set.

Finally, he unsheathed his sword, and in the metal blade, he finally saw himself. Here he stood at the ultimate crossroad: somehow, he just knew that once his decision was made here, regardless of what it was, he would never turn away from his choices. That was who he was. With a slow nod to his own reflection, he resheathed Orn and met the Commander's eyes.

"...No."

Several. PM me if you're interested. (This offer extends to anybody.)

Maas watched with silent interest as the Commander began the ritual, though he did wish he would stop talking and simply get it done. He hated waiting for nothing. The dwarf was first to drink the mixture, which Maas could smell from here. It was not a pleasant scent. As the dwarf passed the large goblet on, Maas was somewhat disappointed; the Commander had informed him that the Joining was a carefully-guarded secret within the Wardens. If that was so, it was kept pointlessly; passing a foul drink around was hardly worthy of such attention. His eyebrows drew together as the Saarebas took her drink, but he said nothing and remained motionless. It wasn't until the Saarebas fell to her knees in pain that Maas realized exactly why the Joining was so secretive: the dwarf was the only one not affected by it, but the Joining was dangerous. As the Saarebas fell to the ground, Maas grew somewhat hopeful. However, a quick look told him she was merely unconscious, not dead: her eyes were moving rapidly beneath their lids, and her face was tightening in pain. Or was it fear? It didn't matter; she had survived, and that was that. Maas waited, this time far more interested, as the goblet was passed to the elfling.

I could do that. I was originally torn between a mage and Maas, so it would work out perfectly there. I'll make a Maas post now.

Looking for long-term 1 on 1 RP partner(s)

Fantasy and supernatural, especially, and I also enjoy sci fi. Real life stuff bores me, though.

Looking for long-term 1 on 1 RP partner(s)

I very much enjoy RP, especially RP with small groups. To that end, I would like to find somebody (or somebodies) to RP with on a long-term basis. Call me picky if you must - because I know I am =) - but I do have a few qualities I'm looking for in a partner listed below.

- I tend to be blunt, so keep that in mind when something I say sounds offensive. Odds are it's not.

- Ideally, you ought to be able to post at least once a day. If life gets rough and you need to disappear for a while, I entirely understand that.

- I AM NOT ROMANTIC. If our characters ever develop a romance between them, that's great, but that is NOT my main focus in RP. If you're looking for 1x1 romantic stories, I suggest you look elsewhere, because I have the romantic capability of a turnip.

- I'd like this to be a long-term deal, as I mentioned above. If you're just looking for a quick fix of RP, I highly recommend the Free section.

- Finally, you will definitely catch my interest more if you use good grammar. You don't have to be perfect, just legible.

I know I probably seem like a stiff - I kind of am, actually - but I really love RP, and I really hope that somebody is willing to join me. If you're up for a long term two- or three-person RP team, please PM me or leave a reply. I eagerly await our adventures!

Heir of the Mitsumine Clan - A Japanese Style Clan Raising RP

I would like to join as well. I'll be the clan's head blacksmith. Just don't expect the strong, silent-and-sullen type. No no no, THIS blacksmith is gonna drink like there's no tomorrow! Oh, and wield a giant warhammer because he's enormous. Can't wait!

>This is all assuming you're cool with it. =)

The Sixth Blight

LetterE hasn't posted anything since his last post here. I propose we give him one more day to post, and then Maas will simply watch as the Darkspawn taint proves to be too much for the little half-elf. That way, we can move on.
