Y’all should tell me what you want to do, and we can go from there. Maybe Barnes picks up Mel while looking for another way back.

Guys, I’ve only painted my character’s face so far and I don’t want to do the rest. It looks pretty good, cute even, I just don’t want to do the work.

It’s at times like these where I simultaneously am in love with and despise my hobby.

(Explanation: Mel didn’t end up at the maze entrance like everyone else because she got there using her own world’s magic, and wasn’t kidnapped by the maze’s magic. I don’t think the crystal orbs will work on her. Also, the door she came through is still there, and any character can use it, but it will just take them to an old lady’s backyard…[Read more]

Melissa Thompson 

Mel’s great aunt Tina had several strange and interesting  things in her backyard. She was what Melissa’s mom called a “hoarder”. She had always said it like it was a bad thing, but Mel liked that word. It made her think of dragons and piles of hidden treasures.

She stood before one of those treasures now. It was a tall wood…[Read more]

@theducktator I’m going to add a second character in a few minutes, so if you want, there’s someone Ayla can meet

@keilah-h

Felicity

“…Planet?” Felicity’s mind spun as she tried to process everything she just heard. She had hoped finding out where Huntress was from would help figure out where they currently were. Instead she was just more confused.

She felt her frustration bubbling up again, and she pushed it back down, forcing herself to take a deep…[Read more]

They didn’t use numbing after all. 😆

Hehe, magic

Barnes

For the first time since she had entered the maze, Barnes shivered. She touched the plaster wall, which looked out of place in the foliage, and traced the faint remainder of poster paper stuck to it.

“I know this wall,” she murmured to herself.

After a few minutes of aimless pacing, coming up to the…[Read more]

Barnes

When Gabriel turned away, Barnes took it as a sign that he wasn’t totally enthusiastic about guard duty. She crossed one of her arms over her chest. “Alright, then.”

She took a couple steps down the next passage, and ignored the rattling sounds from the hedges. Little blue plants on the maze floor reached up to…[Read more]

@raxforge @loopylin

Do I make up the culture surrounding the character if it doesn’t give that much information in the manuals? I’m trying to gauge how much set world there already is, and how much I’m allowed to make up.

The amount of options for items/spells/whatever is insane. I’m loving it. Now it’s time to design a warlock without any prior knowledge of the game and horribly underestimate the amount of information I need on a character sheet.

Tadaaaa, I got me some books!

Barnes

”Correct about… what?’ Barnes looked around.

Ignoring her words, Cassius already lay on the ground as he had before. Soon he was quiet and resting peacefully. It was like nothing had happened.

As Leander settled down as well, Barnes stared off into the maze again and tried to tune out. Her fingers twinged at th…[Read more]

Barnes

“Pardon me for asking – hm.” Barnes hesitated. She absently shook the cigarette box in her pocket. “I’m having trouble understanding the suddenness of this. Wouldn’t you already know this? Have you never thought about your childhood or your father before?”

@the_lost-journal @rae

Barnes

Suddenly Cassius burst again. His weight shifted on the ground beside Barnes as he slumped over. His voice trembled.

How was Barnes supposed to react? The kid had made so many random declarations that this one could be just as short-lived.

“If you really are nineteen,” She said slowly, “I’m sorry for you. But you…[Read more]

@hybridlore I’m available the 24th and 31st, but I’m not sure about the 7th yet. I can do Saturday mornings, but afternoons are better for me since I’m 3 hours behind everyone. That would also give @mineralizedwritings the chance to join too if she wants to and is feeling up to it.

Barnes

“You’re too young, and you seem against it anyway.” Barnes noted how Gabriel flinched when the cigarette burned. She put it down and crushed it on the stone. So much for a silent night watch. “How old are each of you?”

@rae

Have you ever given a charrie of yours a weird mannerism that you have yourself?

Generally speaking, I’m sure I have. I’m just not aware that they are weird mannerisms yet.

A few of my charries like to sleep in a fetal position, or curled up around a pushie or blanket. And Gabriel stretches similar to a cat. Mannerisms I sometimes hav…

Barnes

“…I’m not smoking,” Barnes said. She still held it at arm’s length. “I only lit it for the scent.”

She glanced back at Cassius, then turned back to stare at the labyrinth passageways she guarded. The exposition about pleasure irked her, but she held her tongue. He meant well.

@rae @the_lost-journal

Barnes

“I don’t care. Whatever you like to do.” Barnes pulled out a box of cigarettes and lit one of them. Instead of taking a draw on it, she held it at a distance from them and let the smell waft through the air. “ Ah. If this bothers you, at least speak then.”
