You’re good, lots of people are posting long sections. ;] No one minds at all, it helps to move things forward.

Marcel — Elderstrand (w/Group 1)

So many enemies still stood firm. But there was still hope to win, as long as everyone worked together.

Marcel took quick…[Read more]

@rae I am not submitting anything today. 😖 I really thought I could give you something, but I’m struggling with mental exhaustion/health issues and this thing just isn’t going to happen. I finished a sufficient chunk of the story and couldn’t bring myself to push the submit button. I enjoyed reading y’all’s stories and I hope you have fun!

@rae Expect mine to be posted at the literal last minute. I have a lot to do today and I can’t get this done right away. 😅

Marcel — Elderstrand (w/Group 1)

Marcel stumbled over to Sara and Felicity to fetch his staff. He held it in the crook of his bad arm and punched their shoulders with his other hand. “Nice job.”

They shared smiles for a split second. Marcel ran back into the fray. His hand…[Read more]

@jonas

I think Marcel’s is dead; either we can say the feathers muffled it to death, or tearing off the iron kills the ironwalker because its body is sealed to the armor. This sounds rather morbid, now that I write it.

Quick post to remind everyone and myself. I have to finish this tonight, otherwise it won’t get done. 😂

@raxforge @jonas

Yes. When he said “not solid,” he meant the creatures aren’t made of magically fluid iron that is completely solid throughout. They at least have separate iron plates and pieces. He ripped off at least their outer layer, and whatever is inside is yet to be discovered. (That would be Jonas’ decision.)

Marcel — Elderstrand (w/ Group 1)

The chunky creatures loomed over them, casting shadows over the soaked ground. They walked without sight or feeling, without head movement.

Someone cried out. It was the man with wind powers. He cradled his hand, and when the other young men…[Read more]

@loopylin

You and me both, girl. But it looks like your world-building is paying off :]

@loopylin

“Clickmen.” Felicity shuddered at the sound of metal footsteps. It was clear as they got closer that they were not the machines Felicity was used to

Well, that’s the freakiest name for robotic machines I’ve ever heard. *Eyes you suspiciously* Have you been worldbuilding for something?

@jonas

Are all the roleplayers allowed to deploy ironwalkers?

@theducktator
We’re watching the BBC version right now (cough, Challenge 2 homework, cough) and it’s pretty accurate to the book. ☺️ The newer movie isn’t too bad though either, so if that’s what you have access to, I wouldn’t dissuade you.

@jonas @loopylin @hybridlore @ellette-giselle @rae @grcr @raxforge

We do need a plan, do we want to get out of the city?

Marcel — Elderstrand (w/ Group 1)

Marcel cocked his head, amused, and shook his fists to loosen them back to normal. “You could have left us a couple soldiers…”

@ellette-giselle

The BBC series XD

@freed_and_redeemed

I’m so glad you’ve been drawing and coloring so much! 🤣 It’s been a couple years and we can finally see your own imaginings of your characters.

@ellette-giselle

Ooh he looks like Mr. Darcy. I’m watching Pride & Prejudice right now, lol.

@jonas @loopylin @hybridlore @ellette-giselle @rae @grcr @raxforge
Marcel — Elderstrand (w/ Group 1)
More soldiers raced in. Marcel clenched his hands, and feathers laced around his fingers. Kicking up water, he swerved around around Ellis, who acted as final flaming barricade.
He deflected a sword with his staff. The soldier barked an unpleasant…[Read more]

Marcel — Elderstrand (w/Ellis, Fel, Sara, Leon, Julian, Baron, Marcellus, Ben Gunn, Flare)

Marcel backed up a little, and the others in his group stepped forward. “Maybe there is nothing for it but to move on, find another city.”

@jonas @loopylin @hybridlore @ellette-giselle @rar @grcr @raxforge

Marcel — Elderstrand (w/Ellis, Fel, Sara, Leon, Julian, Baron, Marcellus, Ben Gunn, Flare) This name list is so long. XD

“I’m Marcel.” He held Leon’s hand firmly. His speech was quieter and more gutteral than the other’s, and he made a conscious effort to raise it over the…[Read more]

@jonas @loopylin @hybridlore @ellette-giselle @grcr @rae @raxforge is that everyone?

Marcel — Elderstrand (w/Ellis, Fel, Sara)

Before answering, Marcel glanced at Ellis, who still watched the road. The sword-wielding young man gave a nod. The soldiers had passed them.

“We came from outside the city,” Marcel called. “The soldiers think we’re…[Read more]
