Lol, my mental image of Professor Yeo was something akin to Keisuke Miyagi.
Meeting a Female Guardian Naga will definitely be interesting. >.>; And Awesome~
Totally didn't see that coming, I'm gonna start reading from the beginning of the thread. lol -.-;
Better set aside a Bunch of free time ; )
I had to go back a do a bit of rereading this weekend, and I was here from the start.
A lot happened in just two days.

True, I'm just afraid of getting my player knowledge mixed up with my character knowledge and with how much sheer awesome is put into each game. Its hard not to lose yourself in it all. The only reason I do so well in Legacy of Marinasu is because I kept pertinent facts on a spreadsheet I made xD
Right now though I've just got to make sure Chu doesn't get injured. ;)
I try not to read anything Imuri isn't present for, but then I know I miss a lot of awesome by skipping some great scenes.
Oh..yeah. I meant to imply I went and had to reread just what I lived through. Imuriworld is a complete mystery to me. ;-)
For those at the Temple:
Perhaps it would make sense to discuss OOCly as well?
Here's the list of "To Do's" (both optional and "required") that I'm aware of that have been discussed openly:
--Tea with Shoto in the morning (invitation accepted, right?)
--Preparation for Third Dinner (Tokine and Azami have responsibilities here, I believe.)
--Attendance at Third Dinner (Tokine and Azami for certain. Do Kyras and Erudima have invitations?)
--Possibly some meeting with the Emperor for Kyras and Azami (which has newfound uncertainty)
--Azami must go speak with Captain Takagami about the Plum Blossom ring.
--Dungeon Diving for Rhon Tai's soul.
Am I missing anything?
Looks about right, except....listen to endless speculation and gossip about a certain Palace guard and her gaijin companion (required)
Seems light by yesterday's standards, but lets see what the rest of the morning brings

"muahhahahahahahaaaaa"
*disappears in puff of smoke*
...Well, if that wasn't ominous.
Azami's hoping to fit in a bath before all of that if possible. And following any gossip, scoffing loudly.
I dunno, man, these are teenage interns you're up against. That's at least a DC20 Scoff check. Probably 25. Good thing you have ranks in it.

Sadly though only Tokine could scoff at them {with a +10 bonus for being master of the temple} if Kyras or Azami attempt it they would only be confirming the interns suspicions by trying to deny it.
As the Empire turns~
**************************
Ominous... quite. Professor Yeo is a LOT larger then I had imagined... o.o;;;;
Ugh - forgive my last post's erratic flipping between present and past tense. I spent a good amount of time today writing furiously in the past tense. So my present tense is peppered with tense changes and many of my pronouns are unclear.
@Chu: Well that's relieving. I read back and confused myself. So as long as everyone else can understand, that's good!
@Tokine: At the risk of being an uber-dork, I've been in a creative mood of late, and this is game feeding it. So yesterday, I drew Tokine as best I could. This is a photo of the result - I will be scanning tomorrow.
Do Kyras next!
Actually, Sir Damian would be the best for a drawing, but different game.
azami - that was superfantastic!
DRA-sama: didja forget about me?

[ominous voice]It is forbidden…[/ominous voice]
Thanks!
With regard to other drawings, I am willing to try, even though I have less practice drawing men. (I reserve the right to say, "Nope, that didn't work" and not post anything.)
For another example of my style of drawing, go to Azami's profile.
If you have any thoughts of well-known faces (celebrities, etc) that are similar to what you imagine your character looks like, that could really help. Otherwise, I will go off what the profile says.
WOW! Thanks Azami, its beautiful. I am truly honored to have inspired you.
DRA-sama: didja forget about me?
Nope, nope! Sorry, waiting for the group at the temple to gather themselves up and come a-knockin' at your door. In the meantime I'm picking over my material on the Uniter to give you something relevant that you'd be able to secure from the various resources you would have immediate access to, i.e., local collections, limited research, etc.
Random aside re artwork: if you would rather send me information about your character's appearance instead of posting it here, you may do so by emailing me at irondawn (at) gmail. Thanks.
No other business at the temple, I assume? Can I move Kyras, Azami, and Tokine ahead to tea at the Gossamer Palace?
ready
No further business at the temple.
That is a terrific drawing Azami. Beware or you'll be designated as "thread scribe". ;-)
Wow, truly beautiful artwork Azami. Please feel free to let your pen flow in the shape of Aylaeth the Sylph Magus's likeness if you are so inclined
Damian looks like a more serious John Barrowman. He is fairly handsome, but not distractingly so.
Kyras looks like... I'll have to think about it.
Well. That turned out better than expected. These are images from my phone, as the scanner is also not working. I might go get everything scanned this weekend.
@Kyras: Here's the pencil I did last night for Damian before I got your suggestion. Not exactly John Barrowman (but really, nothing's quite like the original Jack Harkness. *ahem*) Pencil for Damian
I have an idea for Kyras that I'm going to try, and I might have it later today.
@Tokine: Here's the pencil for Tokine. (I kind of like it better than the colored) I might redo her sometime when/if I find a suitable model - this was mostly out of my own head, which is never as good. Pencil for Tokine
@Kyras: Pencil of Kyras
Damian looks like a more serious John Barrowman. He is fairly handsome, but not distractingly so.
Huh! That's really really similar to how I had pictured Sir Damian. I always saw his eyes as being dark, though; brown or black. No idea why.
Kyras: As a note, you don't state what color Damian's eyes are in his appearance description. If you could get me that info before I color tonight, that would be helpful! I've edited Kyras and Damian somewhat in the last few hours, so they are slightly different than the pencils I posted.
Per Dare Mo's post; don't forget that a few of you lost CON in the fight with the Blood Reavers. Those come back at one a day unless you have other magical means for speeding it up.
Wow, great drawings, Azami!
Kyras
Kyras gave me difficulty. Apparently, he wanted to be a little more elven pretty than rugged. Hope he's suitable. I can always try again, after I buy another red pencil. O_O
They both look great. Free art is nothing I'd complain about. (Damian's hair is darker and plainer, though.) I do like that he is plain, in a way. He's charismatic as a soldier, not a ruler; he's the sort of man that leads armies by mutual respect, not nations by presence.
Kyras is good, though his hair is a little wilder. He's a lot less serious than Damian, and a lot more outgoing. Quite mercurial, really. (Ah! Figured out the actor I'd pick: Ian Somerholder from Lost and Vampire Diaries. I was going to describe him as having hair that is more brown, but that picture is actually spot on the money.)
Shoto/Steven: Do you have an actor in mind that fits Imuri? How LONG is his hair? How does he usually wear it?
Conversely, I provided an email address above - feel free to email me there with further description.

So, this actor is rather different from the Viggo I used ;) Do you see Kyras with scruff/facial hair? Just checking. I've put up a new one for him with longer, wilder hair.
I've also darkened Damian's hair. I still need an eye color. Unfinished Damian
Kyras probably would have unshaven facial hair. I wouldn't put it past him.
Damian is meticulously clean-shaven. He has brown eyes and dark blond hair.
Excellent work! I've added both to their respective profiles.
I will try to get scans of them this weekend.
Chu? I can try to look up serpentfolk or something. Let me know if there's an image that resonates with you.
Shoto - I will start as soon as I get those answers from you.
Dare Mo - ...I kind of feel like just posting a blank sheet of paper would be the most accurate. ^__^

Mean't to post these pics sooner. But Azami your art is awesome!
I always pictured Kyras with a full head of untamed red hair, dunno why. Just the whole Red Dragon/Red Head thing fit. But that is just me lol, Like I said those pics are looking really good~
OKay Kyras is REALLY pissed off now...
Edit1:
Thanks Azami I will try and find something, as I am sure Serpentfolk would be interesting to draw. xD Thank you for offering though, I definitely want to see what you can do! =D

@Azami: Serpentfolk Wizard/Cleric
This pic is the closest I could find, I won't burden you with drawing horns or anything like that.
===================================================================
But if you want to challenge yourself. ;-) Chu has a pair of horns that come straight off like the dragon in my user pic, and he has a single large frill that opens or closes depending on his emotions. Like I said before though I look forward to what you come up with. =D
Warhammer Lizardmen Skink (Frill)
Thank you very much for Offering Azami!
So, taking Ian Somerholder into account, I tried a new Kyras. New, Smirky Kyras
Thoughts? If you prefer this new Kyras, think I might employ some photoshop action to get him into the red dragon image.
I totally vote for Smirky Kyras. Awesomeness.
