((Popped into my head, needed to get it down on proverbial paper. This deals with a SWTOR alt of mine, Ceddrick.)) About seventeen years in and I was about done with the place. There’s a thing about being the oldest. I didn’t think much of it and it wasn’t much of a family secret. Hard […]
Auris stared into her glass of red wine at the Blue Recluse. She didn’t frequent taverns, but she needed the drink. Across the table from her sat Adrian. The young soldier wouldn’t meet her eyes, and he barely touched the meal she’d bought him. To her right was Robin, the monk had only ordered a […]
(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 […]
(This is my first attempt at writing an RP story in a while and Adrian I’m considering making a character for, came out of an RP. Hope you enjoy it!) Adrian stepped out onto the street, attempting to meld with the crowd. He clutched the scroll in his hand with a death grip. He couldn’t […]
Templars lined the hall on both sides of the room as Balarash mounted the central dais. The Order of the Chalice symbol shone brightly, emblazoned on shields, breastplates, flags, and more as the room filled. Gleaming helms and radiant swords carried by the Templars and Paladins reflected the light that beamed down from the ceiling, […]
“Lieutenant – what is this garbage?” I couldn’t keep my eyes off of the field Colonel’s mouth. There was this little hanging bit of froth that had been there for the past twenty minutes. Wobbling. Absolutely refusing to go anywhere. It was utterly fascinating – I kept wondering how it was hanging on, whether he’d […]
Sleep…. i almost forgot how terrifying it is. Sleep does a mind good they say, does a body better, people who say thet have never woken up with a dagger in their chest, or against their neck. Still… the space between drifting off and waking is calming most of the time, for the briefest […]
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.
They never knew it was coming. It was the last time they underestimated me. Last time they took me for granted. I tried to tell them, to warn them, but they went about their little lives giving no heed to my warnings. Sure, they emptied the litter box, sure they scratched my ears, sure they […]
Predawn glinted over the horizon, pale buttercream and blue and silvery clouds banishing the blacks and indigo blues of night. A few last defiant stars twinkled. Oranges and golds and bloody pinks began to streak the world, painting a new beginning over the softer pale colors of the day, with the ruddy arid desert heating […]
Nightpetal – Cael snored. It wasn’t the cute kind of snoring, either – it was the mouth open, tongue-lolling, drooly kind of snoring that only a worgen of Cael’s size could actually do; not loud, but insistent, not overbearing, but definitely… er… wet. All the same, it was a comfort. In the days after Cael […]
Something was *wrong*. Kun frowned as her sister scurried in and out of Cael’s tent. Well, partially. There had been smiles and jokes at first, nudges and winks, but when her sister didn’t rise to the jabs as usual the jests had faded a bit. Now she was worried. Petal was off. Kun could […]

[Found folded neatly and slipped into the Justicar’s cloak pocket:] Dear Justicar Enclosed is my report for the scouting shift and demon movement patterns in the Antoran Wastes. There was an incident I believe needs reporting to you. I’m not… sure what has happened, but I won’t pretend it didn’t. It […]
Tears…it seems that Gilneas is always crying, the people outside the wall weep for their lives, as the undead and worgen tore them apart, the people inside the walls weep for their lost friends and the slow decent into madness from being trapped. The witches weep as their families burned in the trials, and all […]
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 […]
[Written in careful, childlike writing, found in her motorcycle’s cupholder: a letter, written on a spare bit of paper.] Joi, Hello. This is Cael. I am writing to tell you thank you agien for the necklase. It means a lot to me. I can not tell you how much. You gave me my […]
Dear Journal, I took advantage of a social gathering with the Templars to finally show my face and meet so many of my fellow adventurers. It was kind of nice to get out with other adults and not have to deal with the everyday drama of my soon-to-be twin teenage terrors. Of course Arialynn […]
The following proceeds WoW – Twilight (Idella), and took place some months ago. The following is based on an in-game roleplay between Idella and Ryo, transcribed and written from her point of view. )) —- For years, she had dreamed of walking the Nether. The space between worlds, between the Light and Void, […]
Cael stared at the egg and sighed, heavily. The egg sat, innocuous, and did nothing. Thick shell, ivory splotched with green and mottled, hard to the touch, faintly warm- about the size of her helmet, say, entirely unassuming. She’d been to see the druids she knew (who were either not interested, busy, or […]
Previous entry ‘Escape from hell’. http://templarsoftherose.net/trgn/journals/test-swtor-journal-3 (A great big thank you to Zetera for editing.) Fimfink hated the bag. It was stuffy, claustrophobic, bouncy, disorienting and dark. The big demon hunter, ‘Ryo’ the others called him. Ryo had really long quick steps, felt like the bag was constantly vibrating up and down, […]
See part one for previous here. A few minutes later… Fim was recovered and brought to the bridge to debrief Carmarthras. “… so they set me down when they tried to force the door open, and that’s when I escaped through an access shaft. I manage to sneak back to Ops pry […]
Related: [WoW] Letters (Idella) —- Months ago, location unknown… “You knew how this would end, dear.” At Claret’s words, the welling tears in Idella’s eyes finally broke and fell. “Yes, I know,” Idella breathed. Her body somehow felt weak yet paralyzed at the same time. Too frightened to move, and […]
The circular durasteel plate was lying several feet away from the lift that dropped into Hoth’s icy surface it had meant to be covering. It had been warped and streaked with gore like the entire opening of that prison she had built. A trail of blood that had been frozen and mostly swept away by […]
