Did we lose Marra somewhere?I hope not. I was quite intrigued to see how her character was going to develop.
Me too! :)
OKay, so current roommates are
Ephebe/Jiminy
Taron/Kam
Asch/Amada
Krays/Spin
Nasima/Marra
If I've got anything wrong or forgotten anyone this is the time to play musical roommates. ;P
Sounds like a good set up to me.
WHAT?! I gotta room with the little creepy dragon with the undead friend?! :D
Speakin' of which, Krays, since you would have moved in first... what does your 'stuff' in the room look like? Just to get a feel for what Spin's gonna walk into here.
Why am I imagining Spin walking into a room with jars on shelves with body parts of at different stages of decomposition sitting about and bones and stuff scattered about.
LOL. Kind of what i'm expecting, honestly.
Not that mechanics are a big concern here, but just so y'all know, what I'm going for with Nasima is exactly what she talked about IC; namely that she'll slowly learn to selectively draw power from Khoda. So she'll be a typical sylph, but will eventually gain the powers and abilities of a small lightning elemental, then medium, then large, and so on and so forth, and do so through all those meditation classes she's in. Calling Khoda himself will, as Ephebe said, be the nuke option for the school, kinda hanging 'Sima out there for a "dark phoenix" thing (or whatever).
Honestly, narratively, I don't have much interest in Khoda actually showing up for real 'cos he's so insanely powerful, but the metaphorical heft of a teen trying to control this literal monster/god that can manifest in her place against her will if she just loses control of her emotions, and then proceed to tear apart entire planes of existence is pretty damn juicy.
So but yeah. Anyway.

It's a cool concept. And I think you've got a good handle on how to put limits on it.
Hey, thanks! ^_^
Yeah, I'm really looking forward to RP'ing Nasima learning that she, too, can have cool powers like all her awesome new friends, and that being blessed/cursed with Khoda is not the all-or-nothing nightmare it's been for her thus far. It'll give her more to do while still letting her be herself and not necessarily forcing her into a hero role. This school already has heroes comin' out its ears, so 'Sima will happily be the jeans-wearing everygirl who maybe just has a bit more backbone than most.
Heh. Er, I mean, eversylph. :-p
Lynora, should i just fast-forward past the Headmaster meeting? I had posted something, but i fyou're not excited to write it or anything, i can just not worry about it. That's your character, isn't it?

Actually that's DB3's character, and he hasn't been on yet today so not ignoring you on purpose. :)
Oh, sorry. I can be patient, then.

No worries. It's hard to keep straight who's who especially when some people have multiple characters. :)
Lol. yah, i guess the un-lazy thing to do would have been to hover over Ryo's avatar image... oh well.
Moving my mouse just takes so much effort though.. sigh.
Hey, slurks have an Int of 3.
I assumed it was only 2. This means I can actually make a character out of Slarrow.
Lol. yah, i guess the un-lazy thing to do would have been to hover over Ryo's avatar image... oh well.

At least the note was telling the truth when it said you don't apply yourself...

Lol. I will consider myself burned.

Hehe, I love it when people set themselves up online. Reminds of the time I spend with my friends offline! ;)
Anyway, to help make things a little easier, here are the characters I control(in order of appearance starting with the original thread... I think).
Cardcaster Ryo
Keaton Bloodfang
Agarthian Storyteller(not a character)
Ruji, Guardian Tressym
Adsila(no alias)
Ormarr(no alias)
Razule Yrrum
Taron Sunwake
Headmaster Ryo
Lysander Sandwalker and 3 kids(who have no alias)
Between the flying cat, the dragon and my slurk, I think there are too many pets. :P
Almost makes me regret this new character. Almost, but not quite. Because slurks are pretty cool.
I was wondering if Ryo's "old" charges were at the school or not.
Between the flying cat, the dragon and my slurk, I think there are too many pets. :PYou are forgetting Ormarr's snakes and Adsila's plants(you'd regret saying they don't count)! They used to turn Ryo's house into a tiny rainforest when he was gone! XD
Oh, right. Where are they, anyway? I'd assume they'd fit in in the school rather well.

I'd guess they're part of the staff? I mean, it has been awhile. The triplets are 26 (which makes them physically the equivalent of 17)so that makes it 28 years from where we left things last.

For shame! Have you forgotten that they both made an appearance in "A Cure for Boredom"? >:(
Yeah, Ormarr and Adsila are still at the school, they just prefer to stay outdoors(which is good, since that is where their classes are held) now that Ryo's got the environmental control part of the wards working.
Agarthian Fact: Avalon is situated in a northern region of the Inner World. It doesn't always snow, but warm days are a rare treat indeed off campus.

26? I've got to work on some stuff then, I thought they were around 20...

I remembered them in the story, but I couldn't remember if they were in the school or the house. It has been a bit since I read the story. I know, I know. I should have memorized it better. ;P
Yeah, 26 puts them just at the beginning of the juvenile category which is the earliest they could be considered sexually mature, i.e. bonding wouldn't have been possible earlier than that. Normally a dragon would have to be in the young adult category for that, but we said that the weredragons matured an age category sooner in that regards.

As long as you realize where you went wrong. XD
By the way, I'm not trying to detract from the wonderful Slurk vs. Towel watching event, just trying to establish that the four are there.
Oh, and if Ephebe looks at them.. Remember the feeling she got from the 3 little kids(a set of twins[boy and girl] and an older brother]? That's doubled if she gets close to Lysander. Getting close to all three makes it stack.
Pshh! Throw'em in. It's all fun.
The whole battle is reminding me of the "Godzilla vs Cthulu" type threads in the main area of the board...
"Juvenile Slurk vs Determined Unseen Servant - FIGHT!"
500 posts. And only one major fight scene thus far.
This is a chatty bunch! I thought it was something when one of the other games I'm in cracked 1000 in a month, but this is intense! Keep it up, all, this is such great stuff! :-D
Oh yes, we are an active bunch indeed! (^-^) This is pretty much how the first one went, page accumulation wise.
Plus, Tamrin never would have thought of "Slurks Gone Wild" without you guys!
I have got to memorize the language in my profile though if I'm going to keep posting in it! Searching for the letters is tiring! :(

Hm... well, true Slurk v Towel was an epic battle, but I think you are forgetting that little altercation with the shadow elementals. That's got to count for at least a half of a battle. ;)

Yeah, speaking Goblin with Darst was something I dreaded until I wrote it all down. In another PbP I'm in, I have a similar problem with Draconic which has yet to be remedied.
/\ Eh, I suppose.
And Silver had to fight the cooks for ice cream.

Ugh. Feeling like an idiot. I didn't really remember so I tried to go back and find the post and I can't. I can't find anything referencing an odd feeling. Which means I probably went right past it like three times.
"While I do enjoy a good debate, how about we move this inside somewhere a little more private? As for your update Tamrin, I have found several people in this school that share characteristics, but none that match." Ryo says as he walks out from behind them to open his office door(which may or may not have been there before). He speaks quietly to the three children* from before(who are already in the office) and they run out of the room.
"Poa Byby!" They shout in unison as they scurry off.
"Poa!" Ryo says before he motions for everyone to come in and have a seat(in chairs that appear out of nowhere) "I apologize for not being able to help with the incident in the cafeteria, but it seems whatever plan this boy has involves distracting me from his real plans. Is everyone alright?"
Here.

No problem, it's probably my fault since I put it in OOC brackets. Here you go.
EDIT: How could I be ninja'd by a gunmage?
Thanks guys. :)

*spins post guns then holster them*
Awesome like that I guess.
That post should make things just a tiny bit more interesting...
What did Silver ever do to Lysander?
What did Silver ever do to Lysander?
Nothing, everything said was directed at Ephebe. I couldn't care less about that flimsy-winged mockery of draconic kind.
No offense, Asch.

I was joking. Couldn't you detect the humorous tone in my voice?

Nope. That sort of thing doesn't cross over well in text form! ;)
"I'll show you a mockery!"

Har har. Quit joking around, Dragon.
*blink blink*
"I've got a little cousin who can make pretty colors too, what else ya got?"
"I'll show you a mockery!"
No use. Kobolds are immune to anti-fear effects.
ToT
You seem agitated.
"I've got a little cousin who can make pretty colors too, what else ya got?"
Um, why are you asking me?
