I'm pretty sure it was for really down. I couldn't get on, either.
We'd be so less fragile
If we're made from metal
And our hearts from iron
And our minds from steel.
But if we built an armor
For our tender bodies
Could we love each other?
Would we start to feel?

Yep, It was down and I was quite angry at first but I got used to not write as Theron after a couple of hours of the computer. xD

I'll get a post up soon and BlackBird, since the Roleplay is growing close to it's mid-end by now (Or I might be wrong since I have no idea what you might have in store for the rest of us) I believe it's time that we discuss what the story should be in the second part, that is if there will be any sequel. ^^

I got a couple of good ideas that I've been tossing around and developing inside my head the entire day that I just need to tell someone about soon. xP

Well...
Doomed officially has control of the villain now. And there are yet things I will PM him about soon. XD

There was one thing I was kind of working on yesterday before the site went down. Because Xcloud9X suggested killing off Takei. Since RPG went under in the middle of our PMing as to how that would go down... I'm afraid I'm holding Crys down until that is solved. (Considering I can get back on that soon, if not I'll figure something out for myself). I also have to consider what other events may result from this...

If you have ideas... Please do tell! :D

*sighs* Good to be back... Although I'm ashamed to admit that I functioned a lot better during the time the site was out. :P

Man I was so mad about the server being down for so long! It did give me time to think about direction of The Shadow. I know I haven't written anything with him specifically, but I do want to have a post up for him specifically on sunday. For now, I want to reread everything that was reacently posted to see if I've forgotten something that has happened that I might need to know if I post.
“I have wrestled with death. It is the most unexciting contest you can imagine. It takes place in an impalpable greyness, with nothing underfoot, with nothing around, without spectators, without clamour, without glory, without the great desire of victory, without the great fear of defeat, in a sickly atmosphere of tepid scepticism, without much belief in your own right, and still less in that of your adversary.”

I was about you PM you Blackbird. I personally think that we should have a sequel (referring to Sibrand's comments before). I have a few ideas about that. Anyways, I'll just wait for you're PM before I post anything or PM you then.

Re: [OOC] Shadows of the Enlightened

Alright so I've been talking to BlackBird and after some discussing we've come up with a nice story Arc for the sequel. I will post most of it here since I want to hear others opinions as well and others ideas since Doom mentioned having ideas as well ^^ I'm open to almost anything.

Oh and a heads-up: we've decided that in the sequel that I should be the GM and BlackBird is the Co-GM. I hope this doesn't bother anyone >.> xP

So here's what we've decided so far:

By the end of the first thread the war between Blackpond and Newhaven has finally seized and Valcrest started to flourish once more in wealth and the standard for living became very high. Some of the old cities were restored but it took quite some time.

The next part takes place ten years after the events in the first chapter. In the end Theron decided that his part in Valcrest was over. He had left the Wolfpack with all the knowledge he once possessed and peace had been restored to the land. And so, Theron leaves the land and the Pack behind to travel north to live with his long lost cousins in the kingdom of Heracly.

[Need information on what your characters might be doing after ten years too]

The Wolfpack grows larger in the following years and the assassins becomes more and more accepted in Valcrest, even though most of their actions are still seen as bad and sinfully the assassins status have been improved. After some accidents the pack is left without any leader as Sebastian dies and Dani goes into a state of deep sorrow over the loss of her beloved husband. Crystal takes over the role as the leader with a new appointed second in command as well.

One fateful day three lone travellers slowly makes their way towards the Camp on their horses. One of them is a small yet bulky figure armed to his teeth with weapons, a man in his early 20's and in front of them is a large man wearing a big shining and silver coloured armour with a black and red cape hanging firmly on his back.

They are welcomed at first for they don't seem to show any hostility towards any of the actives and recruits that stares at them as they make their way through the encampment.
The large man, the Leader by the looks of it, reveals where he's from and asks for an audience with the leader of the assassins and so be it. Crystal walks out from her cottage to meet up with this new stranger.

After a short conversation they discover that this man is actually Theron, the new appointed Major of the Heracly Empire who is asking for their help.

You see, up in the north the Empire along with the Gnome kingdom as their allies is now stuck in a war with the Minotaurs, the elves and some sort of mutated dwarf race. Theron asks for help in this matter from the assassins and whoever decides to tag along will join the Empire in it's struggling war.

---

I will provide with more descriptions about the Empire and all it's factions, the areas inside the Empire's territory and outside it's borders as well as a throughout explanations about all the non-human races on a later occasion.

For the time being I will be open to any suggestion, ideas and such things and I apologize if i spoiled anything for you in the wall of text above. ^^

Oh great, an idea for a sequel already in place. I personally was thinking of some idea of something happening for the war to escallate and it would start to tear Varlcast apart. Unknown to everyone though, some outside force would be helping Blackpond so that they could reach full destructive potential.
I definitely like you're idea as well. I actually like it a little better then my idea. It isn't my roleplay though and I will role with whatever is thrown my way.
I was wondering also if Evin could become 'Second in Command'. I'm not sure why Crystal would ever allow that, but we can figure something out I'm sure.

Who knows, in ten years Crys might learn how to put up with Evin. XD

Apologies everyone!!

Tomorrow are my last two finals of the semester, so I've been studying all day tomorrow and I most likely won't be able to do much of a post tomorrow, as I have a three-hour final at 9:30 and then a two-hour one at 1:30, after which I will be packing up and then driving about two hours home, though it will probably be more with holiday traffic.

Again I'm sorry for my lack of participation, but at this particular point in the RP, Vilen's not ALL that relevant anyway. I'm hoping to do a lot more with him in the sequel :)

Anyway, I'm gonna come up with a post now just so that I do my part, and then you probably won't hear from me until tomorrow night.

Hello, I am Memoir(Mymoir, I don't mind how you spell it :D) And I was really hoping to join this RP. I am not sure where everyone is in the story, or what's going on, the actual RP forum confused me... I would just like to know what's going on before I mess anything up. Excuse me ~Memoir

LALA: Alright. Good luck with your finals tomorrow! :D
And don't worry... When Crys returns, things will be more agitated. XD

I'm also putting Jake in the character list soon. For information, since he is also an enlightened., and... *coughs* I might have plans for him *coughs*

Memoir: Okay I read your changes... LOL

At this moment the second in command of the Pack has been killed by The Shadow. Which will make the Wolfpack as whole to try and find the killer.

If you are an Enlightened and not a Pack member, you could use your abilities around Crys, Ali or any other Pack member who's an Enlightened and most likely you will be taken in. Because the killer would target you.

If you want to be a member of the pack already... You would have to add to your profile (sucks, I know).

At this point I would recommend you to be an active, and...
You would have to add an Alias, and you would have to add to your history how long you've been in the Pack, and how you arrived there. You don't have to detail it to much, but just so I can have an idea of where your place in the clan would be. (if you have friends, get along with the guards, all that. If you want to make an NPC to interact with at first you can too)

If you choose option nº1, you can hang around the Inn in Blackpond, where Evin and Crys would be (although you'd have to wait for Doomed to post, and myself, since a murder occurred there), or for a smoother start you can use Jake (who is an NPC, so you can control him if you like), since he is a former Pack member and would most likely notice you.

Choosing option nº2 you can simply read up on the latest postings and hang around Allison and Vilen. Your character might know them or simply overhear their conversation.

I'm probably posting with Ali pretty soon actually :D

I'm accepting you, so you can post, but don't forget to make the changes if you want to start off as a member.

Hope all this helps you. lolz

Here I am, being just as clueless XD

I decided to make him an Active, but he hasn't been one for very long. I guessed and said he was found by Daniela when he first started off, and I guess I could just improvise the relationships with the others. I went back and skimmed the previous posts, so I get the idea of what's happened... But I'm wary of the location. If you could just tell me where Ali is exactly, I can have Mym end up there. If this is still too vague, we can work it out later.

I'm still sorry about screwing this up. Thank you for putting up with me ^-^ I hope I can get this figured out soon. Please tell me what I can do to improve the situation.

Ali and Vilen are in a... Cafeteria-type-thing-sorta. lol

It's a big wooden house with lots of table and about three older ladies serving food. You can post as if you had already been there,if you like. Ali is the kind of person who wouldn't notice anyone until she is spoken to. (Which is what Annie and Vilen have done).
If you want to describe that path you took there you can improvise anything you see (keeping in mind the cabins are all made of logs and there's a big campfire in the center of the camp), since I haven't described it. Ali usually tends to space out until she gets where she is going. :P

And don't worry about it. That's what I'm here for. :D
