((Wanted to bring back some stories from my old RP days in Guild Wars 2 from when it launched. Here is the backstory for my Norn.)) Airuska grew up like most Norn in a traditionally nomadic lifestyle, travelling in small band that was made up of her immediate and extended family. They lived throughout the […]
Rynn was cooped up in her perch, rifle slung across her knees, and her eyes peering out from underneath her hood across the stretch of desert. She knelt in a small pocket of shadows, bleeding from her feet like a slow dark mist. Even without the unbearable haze of […]
“Rikvi!” Brigid exclaimed as soon as she opened the door to the work room. “Ceridwen! I thought you’d want to know about the weird stuff we saw today!” Rikvi just turned and blinked owlishly. She didn’t even muster a hello, just…stared. Her various trains of thought collided and left her brain a tangle of math […]
Sometimes people come to me because they know I can see the future. Problem is that my visions are nothing like that. Not usually. I am always afraid when it is. When I wake up sweating with blood on my tongue, unaware I’d even been asleep, and some portent heavy on my eyes… But that […]
Rikvi set a small stack of papers on Ceridwen’s desk. “Please check this calculation for me.” The sylvari looked at the papers, then back to her mentor. “That’s one calculation? As in, a singular work?” “Hence why I said ‘this calculation’ and not ‘these calculations’, yes.” Rikvi turned and walked away, leaving Cer to look […]
Riathan sat at his desk, scribbling logos for possible guild banners, and off to the side were a series of crossed off names. “Dawn’s Vanguard, The Dawn Vanguard.” Sadly, sitting next to him was a guild registry, and most of those names were taken. The last one he’d come up with, was a tad wordy, […]
…might not do as well, because marketing mattered and names were important. Which is exactly why Tove was disgruntled that Rikvi had saddled her with this task. Then again, the only things Rikvi named were were papers for the Priory, and those things tended to be “Betwitxt and Between: On The Intersection of the Mists […]
(An old Story from a few years ago, but It gives a bit of an intro to a few of my characters that I plan to Roleplay. One of them may look familiar, but he’s a wholly different character than his WoW version. This story takes place shortly before Heart of Thorns.) Riathan lay strewn […]
Riathan sat at his desk, one that had been provided to him from the Guild Initative office, a parchment set in front of him with a multitude of scribbled out names. Light’s Hope, Destiny’s Edgier (Which had been underlined and circled three times. Mostly because it kept popping into his head thanks to one Lady […]
Once upon a time…that’s actually kind of a strange phrase, isn’t it? First of all, what is “a time”? The word “time” is jarring in this sort of context because it is an abstract noun used as a concrete.
It was late evening. There was a party in full swing at Lady Ambrosine’s house, and by this point, most attendees were well past drunk. They were hopefully letting slip useful blackmail material or even outright treasonous comments where the recording equipment could pick it up (which was well nigh everywhere), but for a change […]
