I like some handycam/found footage stuff. One thing that I don't like about it is too much jittery camera/distortion; it is one of my pet peeves with the Marble Hornets series on Youtube (also how...
She paused for a while and received no response. Perhaps the elf was not loud enough, or too far away?
"Perhaps I should have asked for a map as well," Ruana thought, turning back to the castle...
I think you're right about competitive games, Xavirne. They're not bad by themselves and I can play some competition games with good friends and find them fun (card games and such), but if you take a...
I'm late to the rant party but I have some things that are bugging me :/
1. People who make games not fun for the other players is a big pet peeve of mine. I understand having some friendly...
I had not thought about it before, just because the plots seemed so different from each other, but it might be possible. My last idea for handling this if I couldn't decide was to write 25K words...
I have a slight problem...mostly that I had a general idea of what I was going to write about, then I found an old piece of a short story that I never finished. The first idea is kind of convoluted...
When Ruana stepped into the sunny courtyard, she smiled; having secured a living place and even her first job, she felt she could finally appreciate the island scenery. This was not the first castle...
Ruana signed the bottom of the contract neatly. “Thank you, sir,” she said, accepting the bunch of keys. They were a bit weighty so she stowed them in her bag rather than around her neck. Bidding the...
“That is the symbol of my family, the Eyther clan. I grew up in a woodland colony. We used no numbers for identification, but the crest has marked our family for generations.” Ruana answered honestly...
'Oh no, I hope I haven’t upset him already.' Taking the form and a pen, Ruana filled it in with careful English lettering. Her penmenship slanted due to growing up writing in a different script but...
“Mrs. Silver had mentioned an assistant gardener position, and I am quite good with plants. I can also offer various magical services if need be.” She ticked off on her fingers some things that could...
The elf-girl stood on the threshold of the office and knocked nervously to announce her presence. “Um, hi. I’m a new tenant here and, um, I’m looking for some part time work.” She had never had a job...
Ruana smiled to herself at the sight of the modest room. To many, it would probably seem spartan but after many nights on the road, it might as well have been a duchess’s suite. She tossed her bag on...
At the sight of the tall man, Ruana shuddered slightly. He was very imposing but also appeared to have business elsewhere so the elves were paid no mind. “Thank you much,” Ruana said, dropping into a...
A kobold lazes in a hammock strung between two pillars. No adventurers yet today, so he's had little to do.
It is evening in Tarant Forest. The songs of birds are giving away to chirping of crickets. It's calm and peaceful, or so one would think, as long as you don't venture too far down the beaten old...
Sorry for the delay, school work needed to be dealt with :P Anyway, I added some things and opened it up, now I'm just waiting for players. It's not very visually appealing at the moment, when I get...
“My name is Ruana Eyther,” the elf-girl said, glad to be speaking her natural language. “I’m room 212, and I’d like to get at least a part-time job so I can stay a while.”
‘It really is important...
Ruana gave a slight jump; she had not seen the woman at the desk before. She noticed the woman’s ears and almost gasped, for it had been a while since she had seen another like her. “Oh, I am just...
Ruana jogged up the stairs and wandered around the second floor. She passed by a door with an official look, much like the reception room. ‘Is this the manager?’ She heard some muffled voices inside...
Information seeking was something that appealed to her, but Ruana decided to try it the old fashioned way first. Taking a piece of twine from her pouch, she threaded it through a loop on the key,...
Thanks. I made a closed roleplay called The Black Tower for now. It needs a more interesting title -_-
The rules I've got so far are like DnD lite: roll to see if you hit a defense score/find...
Last year was my first Nano. I didn't quite make the 50K (I think it was around 45K and I was near the last chapter) but it was fun. Good luck in November :)
Hello and congrats on getting your Nano story organized so early. Mine is still a mess :P
I just want to add that impish is one of my favorite words so I love your username </wordnerdery>
Thank you. I've poked around the site and noticed some games I'd like to join. I've got an idea in the brainstorming thread. Once it's a bit more fleshed out, I want to make it and see if it will...
