Cloaked Mystery

That’s…super weird. When I was signed out (which happens every time for some reason), I couldn’t see the two most recent posts. KP is having a lot of issues.

@everyone @rae @highscribeofaetherium @thearcaneaxiom @princesachronicle22 @beth-torres @keilah-h (I think that’s all?)

So I had an idea. (I already typed it up, but it got deleted, because KP signed me out when I put my phone in my pocket 🙄 so I’m not going to summarize what I had before.)

Basically it’s this: what if we add a few villain…[Read more]

I also noticed this problem. I had a hard time logging in because ads kept appearing on top of the login box.

@rae

Probably when they go inside and all of the characters are together.

Kate

Kate ignored Nahim. He didn’t have any right to tell her what to do.

Still, she supposed she could make some effort to look less threatening. She stood up straight and rested the flat of the blade on her shoulder, but didn’t put it away.

Ellis

“Then our goals are the same,” said Ellis.

You sure sound disappointed to hear that, Conviction commented.

Rina

“Great, so we’re all friends now,” said Rina skipping back over. “I suppose we should get over to that palace and—hey! You didn’t tell us your name!”

Ellis

Oh no, how could y…[Read more]

@highscribeofaetherium

It doesn’t really matter.

Rina

Bored, Rina turned around to examine the walks of a building, dropping her sword back into subspace.

Ellis

“Fine,” said Ellis, sheathing his sword. “Put it away. I want your name and intentions here.”

@highscribeofaetherium

Ellis

“It’s not a threat, it’s a precaution,” spat Ellis. “I’m not about to put down my weapon when I’ve got two swords leveled at me.”

Rina

“Y’know, that does sound pretty reasonable,” Rina said to Zahlin. “Maybe we should all just put away our weapons at talk it out, like reasonable people.”

@highscribeofaetherium

Ellis

“Ha! I don’t think so,” said Ellis. “I asked you a question.”

Yes, yes, provoke them, said Conviction, sarcastically. It’s only two against one. Those seem like good odds!

Rina

“Rina,” said Rina. “Does that answer your question?”

@highscribeofaetherium

Rina

“It gives them more character,” said Rina.

Ellis

Ellis raised his eyebrows. “Meet them?” he repeated.

Yes, how silly of her, said Conviction. You never ‘meet’ people. Usually you just go waving me around at them while glaring threateningly.

Ellis let out an annoyed breath at the sword. The voices were getting…[Read more]

Kate

As the girl and the large draconic figure approached, Kate drew Bloodsong and held it forward warningly.

What are you doing? You’re worthless with a sword, Bloodsong commented cheerfully. Why don’t you just use magic?

“I’m not wasting more energy,” Kate hissed through her teeth.

Sh…[Read more]

@rae

Heh, don’t worry! I have no idea what public school is like either. I think quite a large number of KPers are homeschooled, so you’re not alone.

@rae

Kate

“We’re not alone,” Nahim rasped, before shooting a rope and pulling himself to the top of a wall.

Not alone?

Kate glanced around. She didn’t see anyone.

She wove together an Arcweaving, forming a complex ring around her. It pulsed.

“I hope both of you have fought in wars,” said Nahim, looking down from the wall.

“Why…[Read more]

@highscribeofaetherium

Rina

“Hey, I don’t think I got your name!” said Rina to her companion as they neared the palace wall. “Does your sword have a name?”

Ellis

Ellis and Szabrin continued on in silence. Suddenly Ellis stopped and held up his hand. He could hear footsteps. They seemed to be coming from an adjoining street a few yards ahe…[Read more]

@elividya
Welcome to KP! I’m Jonas, more enigmatically known as Cloaked Mystery. I write mostly in the fantasy genre, but usually with hard rules that verge on sci-fi. I like creating magic systems, usually hard ones, but I have a few soft-ish ones. My current project, which I am working on with my sister, @highscribeofaetherium, is a large f…[Read more]
