The aberrant banemite hissed, or…rattled, or something. It was an odd sound that was difficult to describe, the sound a normal banemite might make if it had somehow grown six times larger than usual, so whatever passed for its chest cavity amplified its sound by that much. Which was, of course, exactly what had happened. […]
She left the Wood the day her mother died. It wasn’t a decision, exactly. A “decision” infers other alternatives, a conscious choice between options. But she had no choice – her mother’s passing meant passage of the fluffle to her aunt. As foster parents went, there was no one she could think of less […]
Shae (not her real name, which she left behind as well) left her home in the Wood the night her mother died in order to avoid being raised by her tyrannical aunt. She has spent many years in the Outside, most of it spent in and around Limsa Lominsa. She found herself pulled into this […]
Raz’as blinked away light from his eyes as he rolled over, trying to get away from the sun. “Rise and shine!” said the far too cheerful voice. “Nooooo…” muttered the Miqo’te child, pulling his covers over his head, tail twitching in annoyance. The covers were gone suddenly, ripped from his hands, and […]
“I tried, Dasha – but he’s just… it’s not him anymore.” “Of course it is. He has forgotten. You heard the King.” “I did. And.. I do not mean to question, but.. The enchantment, whatever it is? It has him. Wholly. We don’t even know where to begin to look to break it – Klounni […]
Market Street was quiet. A feint cloud of snow from the road blew by the entrance of the Rusty Dragon. In the front window of the building, a sign written in common, and varisian read “Under new management.” Arcs of purple lightning suddenly appeared in front of the building and with a blinding flash, Coira […]
Riathan sat at his desk with a report in front of him. Normally the usual state for him but the content of this report bothered him greatly. His sister sat lounging in a chair across from him, arm slung over the back and her foot kicked up onto the chair next to it. Idly turning […]
Character Name(s)/Server: Avette Cailen (Mateus) Preferred Job/Class or Role: Generally a brute. (Dragoon for now, but exploring dancer and machinist) In-character Information: “You remember our deal?” Avette asked and shifted the canvas duffle on her shoulder. Her grin was too wide, giving away her excitement and seeming all too cheerful in spite of the menacing […]
I am Heva. In my tribe, we told stories of a sister who left the Wood. They said her hair was fairer than a snow-capped mountain. So fair, its strands were as pure and clear as winter icicles lit by the bright morning sun. Her bow was carved with the many stories of her feats, […]
K’aldur Tia, of Mateus Preferred Job (currently): Mechanist Story Fun-time: “Shipman Tia! Lash those bloody lines, I don’t want a single rope out of place!” Barked the ship’s captain, whip coiled in hand as bolts of arcane energy flashed past Luca Inferata’s side. They were soaring above the battlefields adjacent to Carteneau, […]
My name is Svaelfyr Roslinsch. A shudder passed through the smooth and featureless gray floor underfoot. Whines of failing steel rung muted through the hrothgar’s office, dampened by the numerous walls between it and the muggy night beyond. I am writing this in hopes that you – whoever you might be – also wish […]
Character Name(s)/Server: Mountain Annens (Balmung) Preferred Job/Class or Role: FITE (Marauder/Warrior, but uh… I’m bad at it) There is writing here, but it’s large and scrawly, left-handed (smeared a bit) and there’s words crossed out in places: My name is Mountain Annnens. I am from somewhere. I live in Limsa Lomiss.. Lims… The city. I’m […]
Raz’as Jinjahl, of Balmung Preferred Job (currently): Ninja Story Fun-time: Raz’as woke up in softness. At least, that’s what it felt like to him. He’d never known beds could be this squishy, pillows this fluffy. Just a welcome change to life that happened recently, one of a few. He honestly thought he was still dreaming, […]
((TW: Animal death. Theo’s payment for her loyalty isn’t what she was hoping for.)) The red swirl of anima could barely keep together long enough to reform and disgorge a smoking, charred humanoid, who crumpled to the ground. The pain from being blasted by the Light laser on the bridge during […]
[Theo’s notes consist of a complete, detailed floor plan map of Castle Nathria: passages, rooms, entrances, exits, stables, secret passages, doorways, closets, guards, stable hands, holding pens, balconies… It’s an assault and infiltration team’s wet dream. She has spared no detail. The other pages cover more of the castle, people of note they may meet […]
He walked the streets of Stormwind with calm confidence, his nobleman’s attire spotless. His gaze turned from side to side, noting all the activity. Easily lost in the crowd, the man made his way unerringly to the city’s central bank building. Stepping inside, the man followed the queue line until it was his turn. Beckoned […]
((The one where it all comes home to roost. Hitting rock bottom involves pain… and actions have consequences.)) Nadana lead Nemalu to the cell where Theo was being kept. It had been something thrown together but over the past few days it had been modified to better suit the it’s current need. Inside […]
“Now this is quite a turn of events, isn’t it Theo?” A whisper of a voice echoes in the cell as Mythalen strides out of the shadows nearby. He looks down at her then continues his gaze upwards to her face and what was left of her hair. “Looks like you’ve encountered something you couldn’t […]
Dear Reader, For the first… and potentially last time, I will introduce myself. My name is Alexander Penarrow; Scholar of the Mists, sorcerer of the arcane, Doctor by trade, and enemy to the children of the night. My life has been a long one. For two hundred and sixty five years, I have dedicated my […]
(A lovely rp between Ace’s new main and Theo. Super fun!! Shoutout to ace for being awesome) The despoiled camp wasn’t suitable anymore for a number of reasons, not just the overwhelming smell of cat piss. Theo didn’t return there on her arrival in Maldraxxus. Rather, instead she slipped past the lines of […]
(A conversation between Niesa and Elli) The battle was brief, but fierce. After the dust had settled, Niesa had summarily vanished, as was her wont to do when she was tired, sore or injured. The words of Feralsong still played in her head as she retrieved the precious box she had painstakingly been restoring. *She’s […]
The Kaldorei worgen left the infirmary, her face set. Silver eyes scanned the area, partially to ensure the area was safe but most in search of someone in particular. Upon seeing a group of Eredar, she moved in that direction, her gaze fixed on Nadana. “Good. Gather everyone in the main building, we can see […]
Elli Elli moved silently through the shadows of the Banewood, the elusive scent of Theo pulling her onward. Damn this huntress and her wandering, the druid growled in her head. The huntress’s tracks criss-crossed the entire area, stopping, restarting doubling back. Adding to the difficultly were the other unfamiliar scents blanketing the ground and air. […]
*Did you ever think you’d be here like this? The Maldraxxi commander had grinned, cuffing her upside the head like a stubborn child. “You’re dead, kid. You can either get used to it and fight, or just disappear into nothingness.” “Or I can get back, ya big barstid.” There was an uproar of laughter and […]
Neisa spent an inordinate amount of time in the lake trying to meticulously clean all of the gunk out of her fur. Clawfuls of sand were scooped and ground into the clumpier parts in an attempt to work out and bind to the viscous remains the giant mite had graced their party with the evening […]
