O.O so many posts. yeah it was a long dinner >_> ended up meeting with a friend and catching a movie and talking about movies >_<

I like the music idea of the gals being trapped and so on. it'll definitely help me bring Alak out of his peace "shell". I plan for him to get a little more in tune with his drow side that he so passionately neglects.

Tali, you are the awesomeness for the map.

Lusa, you reminded me...I forgot to add the medical center T_T It's beyond the silver wall, close to the South gate so people can have a beautiful sight of the sea. *coughs to Tali* I'll put that in the list with the others.

Hehe, now you know it's up ;) thanks for joining us Lusa. Your character uses knives correct? And doctors can hurt just as much as they heal. Clerics are the shiz. So feel free to enter if you wish. If not, you can help me judge the tournament. I'll think of some way to repay you for your services so you don't feel like you're missing out. They'll definitely need a medic to help take care of wounded contestants.

Unfortunately, as you can see, Mene doesn't have any guilds. Don't know why >_> I suppose it's because it's not as big as Gaia XP. But I suppose there is some form of Assassin's guild that Alana is a part of...So yes, feel free to make your name in Mene history by starting a Healer's guild.

*pats Tali's mind* it's ok. we're all nuts here.

Music event? *re-reads posts* Did I miss something? Oh you mean the sound. I do like them being lured *brainstorms on how it can tie into Alana's dad if possible* or it could be something independent.

Pets? There's a toy store with stuff animals and you can have some pets from special event items or donations...but other than that there's no pet store. Or are you talking about in the RP? If Lusa wants a pet, then we'll find a way to wrap it into the story. That's what make rp's great ^_^

FDD
Since my day has been full of movies: worked out while watching Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and Starsky and Hutch, then watched Basic, keep thinking about seeing Gamer, might go see Surrogates tomorrow...What is your favorite movie genre?

I don't mean to cop-out, but I do like a movie that has a nice mixture of genres. I suppose my favorites are action/adventure movies with light humor and a little unlikely romance saturated in twists. Example, movies like Transporter 3 and Oceans 11 are up there for rewatchablility. I just love clever banter and strong character development.

EDIT:
I've been thinking about Alak's parents. I may have found good pictures for them too ;)

Lets see, his mother had black hair and green eyes and his father's hair was white and eyes of a clear blue (most drow have red or white eyes so it was once suspected that his father was mixed with something). His father was master of archery and swords and his mother was a notable enchantress and healer, her magic strongest during the full moon.

They met under a new moon, when her magic was weak. She had went to gather power from a grove of moon flowers that store energy and found him lying there, injured from a recent attack. At first she was frightened, but seeing that he would not harm her, she approached. Afterward, she returned to the grove to heal him and soon he settled there, finally finding a place where he felt he could be happy. The fairy grove nearby didn't appreciate her keeping a drow so close, but they trusted her and made no complaint as long as he never stepped foot in their grove. They fell in love and by the next full moon, conceived Alak. Soon, his father suspected that his enemies were still searching for him and left disappeared without a word. Goodbyes were too hard to say, especially for one not use to saying them. Alak's mother waited for his return every night, and as the moon waxed and waned and her belly swelled, she never gave up hope. Then, he did appear on the horizon. He came to her, barely alive just like the night they met. She did what she could to heal him, but her power wasn't strong enough without the full moon. So she took him to the fairy grove. They refused to let him enter. His mother eventually nursed him back to health, but it cost most of her life power. She would die younger than most fairies. Alak's birth was thankfully on a full moon. His father held him first and named him. For an entire year, they were happy. Then, the grove was attacked in search of Alak's father. Feeling it was his duty to protect them, he went off to fight only to find that it was drow hunters sent to kill him. Many fairies had been tortured before they finally gave in and told the drow of Alak's father's whereabouts. In an effort to prevent any more lives from being loss, he gave himself up. He was killed right on the spot, his head severed from his body. Alak's mother weeped for months. She let her power dwindle, not wanting live anymore. But she knew she had to be strong for Alak, at least until the boy could take care of himself. Alak has always been proud of his father, but fears what lengths his drow characteristics will take him. He knew what a powerful fighter his father was, having survived death twice and only truly dying when he decided to give up his life. But that was not before killing, as was rumored, 100 Drow rangers in two nights before returning to his lover half dead.

Names?
mother = Beauty of the Silver Sun (at least that's what it meant...)
father = T'risstel (the name he went by meant Outcast Sword)

whoot brainwashing ftw

Yay I posted my first post. x3

welcome to the role play. I finished the all together map of the lands around mene but ill do mene later.

I hope this shows up good.




kk it did.

I hope you like it code.

*wonders where my post went*

dang i don't remember everything I said ;_;

well, there was congrats to Doll for her post. and oodles of thank yous to Tali for the map. I'm gonna post it right now in a new section of the first post.

Other than that, I'm editing my most recent response in the RP a bit. Be sure to re-read the last paragraph. It will change the course a bit. I have to thank Tali again for somewhat giving me the idea. The time jump to 12am (gates closing) made me think...hey! why not time have flowed differently in that shop? You girls are awesomeness ;)

girls pwn all love dont you know that?

Thank you guys for the small greeting. I feel so included with something now. xD

*hugs* in this role play you will always feel included.

^_^ well said Tali. Anyone not feeling included or need to talk about something, feel free to say so. I hate it when people automatically drop without saying something. If for any reason a person feels they can't keep up with the story, do tell. I'll work to catch them up, or if they just want to write themselves out, then let it be so. I am a fan of spontaneous combustion ^_^. But let's not worry about such things now ^.^

FDD (Fun Discussion of the Day):

Working an 8 hour shift tonight at a dorm's desk. 7pm - 3 am. What's the worst shift you've ever worked? Or if you haven't worked, what's the longest you've had to stay awake? I didn't sleep for four days last semester because I had so many papers and tests...v.v I was wired those days. When I did sleep, I was dead to the world for 12 hours.

I havent slept for five days now. anyways where is lulsalma? its her post

she tends to post in the mornings. We'll see what happens. meanwhile, let's develop our characters more and figure out where we wanna try to take the story.

O.O omg! 5 days? Sleep!

lol i suffer horrible insomnia. Ive stayed up for weeks before no worrys bout that.

So what do we want to happen tonight? do we want the girls to wake up lured by the music like zombies or what?

also working on mene map just taking time to get it right

Yeah I was thinking something along those lines. Or perhaps before they even make it to your place, as they pass it, they get drawn into the shop. So I suppose it's like a little shop of horrors =). Trying to think more about this shop though, whose attacking, what motive, hmmm? (also watching bleach >.>)

yeah theres so many dang options. I have a better idea for alanas father so keep him out of this but maybe its a powerful witch with a connection to lulsalmas past perhaps since she was the first one to hear the music.

*role playing two different role plays and debating on goin to bed*

I'd like to welcome our freshest meat, Phoenixxangel. Every time someone joins this rp, kirby does a little happy dance ^_^ look at him go!

(>^.^)>
<(^.^<)

I'm gonna go work out. I'll be back to post in 2 or 3 hours (if dinner doesn't take too long afterward).

o.O welcome I suppose

*pokes code* no food for you

.o. but i like food >.>

think its your post mr food eater

I'm posting I'm posting. I'm trying to think of how I'll put Phee in with the crowd. She's out by the Tavern and Alak and Lusa are hungry...>.> but I was gonna wait. still, i want her to tag along.

lmfao have fun wit that

=P well it's your moves ladies

I posted its lusys turn XD hi code btw

Hi there everyone! I've just joined =3 (as you can see by the post I've submitted in the main forum =3)

So I've heard everyone's heading to the town square, ya? I'ma check out the map description again (since I've terrible with directions =p) and figure out exactly where I need to go!

So... How is everyone?

good how about you?

Hi Phee. right now tali is working on a town map, so just know i put your excellently named Lion's Breath Tavern in the Town Square. (it'll probably be toward the west of town). Just know that north tends to be more secretive or even suspicious, east tends to wealthy, west tends to be poor or mid class, and south tends to be just plain interesting (like where foreign stuff would be found).

I'm doing good. bout to go to class in 10 minutes ^_^

FDD (fun discussion of the day) = so to get a little more personal if you don't mind, what is everyone's ages?

I'm 21. I'm a senior and college and studying International Economics and Cultural Affairs with a minor in Political Science. My geographical focus is East Asia and the Middle East. I suck at learning languages and have no idea just what the future holds for me. I think after all my studying I might end up becoming a writer, though the last time I learned any type of english grammer was 5th grade. ^_^v
