What is the tech level in this world? I don’t want to force a modern age character into a medieval setting without changing them up.

Hail Giselle! Thy compliment is indeed kind, and I shall attempt to assist with what knowledge I know and experience I experienced, but I shall give you fair warning. . . I am far from a sword master.
Now that I have claimed my disclaimer (And you shan’t be able to sue me for missing limbs), let’s proceed!
I’ll start with some i…[Read more] -

Ooohh, I can’t pick who to use… I want to use someone who is fresh and fits the adventure theme, but I feel as if I will last longer in this roleplay if the character is super comfortable to me.

Lovely warm night colors, I quite like it. :] Do you have synesthesia too? A synesthete conversation probably already happened on this forum, but I can’t remember.

Thanks for the invite! (Sorry, I know I’m late haha.) I may be joining the camp as long as it’s not too late and my mom says okay. ☺

Yay! I’m not the only high schooler who still trick or treats! What are you going to be? I’m going as a flapper.
Oh wow, that is such a good idea. O.O I’m going as the princess Hornet from Hollow Knight.

I’m sorry you worried – you do not need to, I assure you! 😁 It can sometimes feel like things are slowing down for good, but usually people are just busy in real life. This forum is not one of those forums which has slowed down since it began, fortunately. Lots of people are active right no even if they aren’t posting…[Read more]

Hi Liberty! Great to meet you!
I’m a young home-educated follower of Jesus Christ. I’m filled with the passion to write God glorifying stories. I also have a huge passion for horses, and dogs. ( I mean, just read this quote: “I am still under the impression that there is no…

Thanks!! I almost have to change it now, haha. Same!! They are SO good. I just reread the whole series and started the Chronicles of Avonlea, which I’ve never read before. Which ones have you read?
(Rilla of Ingleside is so sad!! 😭)

@ellette-giselle
Is Collins saying we should all act like Darwinist survivors tho? Just because Katniss has a traumatized survivor mentality, doesn’t mean Collins thinks it’s a good thing.
I thought the evil government was about:Desensitization – – – – dehumanizing others (the birth of the Hunger Games) – – – – now children are traumatized and…[Read more]

Ok, Chapter 11. It was good. I liked seeing Nahim with the guys and Mandin haha. There was a lot of unconsciousness and Nahim not responding to people, but I get that (a) they’re fighting spiders that make you fall asleep and (b) Nahim has some issues with talking to other people. Those were my main thoughts. Overall, great job!

Gotcha
it’s all about doing whatever you must to survive. Then we have covid, and what happens? Americans make compromises with their freedom that should never have flown all in the name of survival
Yeah totally. A text, especially something that can be sloppy around the edges (like Hunger Games), can negatively affect the cu…[Read more]

Also, have you heard of Kara Swanson? Random, but she’s a great fantasy author who also happens to have Lyme disease. She wrote Dust and Shadow and her new book that just came out was Ignite.

Yeah I’m not a huge fan or critic of Hunger Games. A lot of the appeal for teens is drama/gore thrill, but to just dismiss it because the protagonist has an overwhelming survivor mind defeats the point of her character. You feel me?

WOOD/BAMBOO
Pros. These can be used for more realistic training and are definitely better in regard to weight and rigidity. Bamboo also doesn’t hurt too badly.
Con. You will likely need gloves and possibly a helmet or padded cap (Especially for wood). I personally don’t like them because they break. . .
POLYPROPYLENE (Hard plastic)
Pros. The…[Read more]
When and if it comes to protective gear, I recommend that if you can’t dump a bit of money ($400-$600 for one person) into the real stuff, get motorcycle gloves, a helmet (I use a ProForce Thunder Padded Combat Head Guard with Face Cage), a throat guard (Gorget), and some form of “breastplate”.
Why wont it let me post the rest. . . ? 😒

@power
Hello! Thank you for replying so soon!
Ah, thank you for the tips. Maybe I should have mentioned that we own quiet a few polypropylene and some wood and bamboo. My dad also has a collection of mettle swords ranging from cavalry and claymores to catanas and sabers. So, I’m kinda past those stages and was really looking for a mettle blade…[Read more]
It sound like you might be looking for what is called a side-sword, a.k.a Spada da lato (Italian) or cut-and-thrust rapier. They are fairly light blades (2-4 pounds), range around 3 ft, are single handed, and are used for cutting and thrusting. Basically it’s a mix between a rapier and a arming sword.
Haha! I just came to the conclusion today that what I was looking for must be a side-sword!
I’m considering this one.
Do you know anything about Kingston Arms?
Thanks for the help and the Hema website is awesome!!! I’d heard of Hema but never knew there was a whole thing set up…[Read more]
No, unfortunately I don’t. I would try and check as many reviews as you can.
Another thought (Way to blow money 🙄😆). A side sword would pair well with a targe, buckler, or dagger.
Yeah, but I’m not gonna blow money at the moment……..
Oh, a dagger.
*Stares off into distance with stary eyes*
Okay, stop it, I don’t have THAT kind of money. I’m gonna have to save up for this sword a little, and I just can’t do anything else yet……. Though i would love a dagger.
The reviews seemed good, but if you had some background…[Read more]
