• 19:52, 7 May 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page A Happy Dance (Created page with "The sky is blue without a single cloud to obscure its beauty. The sunlght offers itself freely, but a cool breeze keeps the world from growing too warm for comfort. It had taken some doing to extricate himself from Cor'ethil's presence without a well-placed lie, but Karasu had persevered in the end by saying he was running an errand for Wuya. Which in the end was true enough. It had taken all of five minutes to locate the house of the Archmage Telamon, but somewhat long...")
• 01:39, 4 May 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Trade Off (Created page with "In this district, most shoppes are probably permanent and of a tier to more match their clientele. If there are mobile carts or stalls around, they might also be designed with their target audience in mind. As for Tlanexhuani's stall, it is... well, none of these things. He does not own a cart, nor even the pieces to make a stall: he'd never considered such a thing much before, and even in only the simplest terms when he did. So his stall consists of several crates and...")
• 21:58, 22 April 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Birds of another Feather (Created page with "The spring air is clean and clear, with the fine rays of noon-time sunshine dappling down onto the world below. This is a day that Corey would call a blessing, for it's the exact kind of day that he'd have spent in the woods, enjoying the bounty of nature in his surveys of the land. The paladin is, as a result, in very good spirits as he walks in Alexandria. Life is something to be savored, and despite everything... He will not let the darkness of recent events cast a sh...")
• 21:55, 21 April 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Whilst You Lay Dreaming (Created page with "The Temple of Vardama keeps healers on staff that are quite thorough, enough to the point that, once Corey has been healed, the man is at least urged to stay for a period of observation. The Warden of Gilead declines, however, and he vacates the chamber, entering the foyer to start asking around with the guards to inquire about Karasu's appearance. "Excuse me," he says, inquiring with one posted not far from the doorway where he'd entered into the wider Temple. "Have yo...")
• 20:18, 20 April 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Tears of Death (Created page with "It's a cold and bitter day for the beginning of spring. Perhaps the winter is trying to cling to the world, but time slips inevitably forward. Cold rain pours from thick grey clouds which obscure the heavens in turn. Wind howls as it is driven down the narrow streets between the market district and elsewhere. All in all the weather seems determined to make this a terrible day, but then... there are other reasons for that as well. A merchant down the street with a haul o...")

Karasu seems largely unconcerned with the blooms offered up by the various plants, but he stays close to Corey, and his dark eyes roam the gardens with a somewhat cautious air nonetheless. "It may be aesthetically pleasing to the eye, but it is not a place that sets me at ease." Corey seems quite happy to be in t...")
• 03:16, 9 April 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Frozen Veins (Created page with "The borders of the Greatwood, Llyranost, late afternoon. The village of Ortheiad has a problem that can be boiled down to two puncture wounds on the neck on one body and three missing people, none of which have yet turned up. The only thing that the three missing people and the one found with puncture wounds have in common is that they're village residents--it's actually rather odd that there _aren't_ more connections between the four individuals, considering the size o...")
• 03:56, 7 March 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Body Guard (Created page with "The request on the Adventurer's Guild request board had been very clear, if not long-winded or terribly good on offering an explanation. The request was for a 'subtle' suite of body-guards for a local nobleman by the name of Augustus Alexandros. A well known individual of some wealth and fame. So the request for a body guard (or two, or three) isn't that surprising. Though most lords don't usually mind if their bodyguards are noticed or not. Either way, you have your or...")
• 03:42, 1 March 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Make Cookies Not War (Created page with "There's a rapid, incessant, and loud knocking on the door belonging to Telamon and Cor'lana's home. Auranar would normally never be so rude, but she is beyond caring about something like social niceties. She knocks on the door, almost bruising her knuckles on the wood with her intent. Mentally her mind is half-frantic and driven to thoughtlessness. She's not sure if it's only been a few seconds or if she's been doing this for ten minutes. Maybe she should try breaking th...")
• 04:14, 29 February 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Ten Year Step (Created page with "Today is not exactly a beautiful day. No, the snow has faded into mere cold and damp. The sky is gray without the promise of any blue that the early days of spring might offer. No, the end of winter is holding onto the world, but it has lost its luster and beauty, giving way to only a faint sense of discontent. Soon there will be hope of warmth and cool rains to wash away this bitterness but today is not that day. The streets of Alexandria are largely empty, the weather...")
• 20:58, 23 February 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Expect the Unexpected (Created page with ""Another grey day.", the Goblin says with a huff. With breakfast already inhaled and digesting, Simony has settled in with a few tasks. Today, it is translating an ancient treatise on trading relations, from Khazdul to tradespeak, and comparing it to a similar work by the same author, but in Sylvan. The scratching of her pen fills the room as she concentrates, only occasionally pausing to glance at the open door to her cell in the Monastery at the Spire. "Dwarves sure...")
• 21:54, 20 February 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Dead Men (Created page with "The Temple of Vardama: Crypts The body lies on a slab of stone, a piece of white cloth has been drawn over the corpse for the sake of human modesty and respect for the dead. Thus far, the priests have been unable to determine a cause of death for the guard whom had spoken to Harkashan in the dungeons before utter chaos ensued. The deceased's belongings are arrayed on a nearby table. A guard uniform for the Arcanists Guild. A small amount of money yet unclaimed by the n...")
• 22:51, 16 February 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Summoning Aid (Created page with "The Goblin is a little unhappy with the snow, but at least the wind has died down. Her haggard and drawn expression from previous days has gone, replaced by a more focused and driven one. "I'd really prefer to do this indoors, in a nice library or another place of knowledge, to influence the choice of ally. But since we cannot risk things in the city, and hah, the protective wards... which I really do hope are extant still, given that the Arcanist's dungeon has lost the...")
• 22:46, 13 February 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Sound Mind (Created page with "The dungeons which are attached to the Arcanist's Guild, are far from a pleasant experience. After being divested of all weapons and magical equipment, everyone is allowed downstairs, but the guards hadn't exactly been well-pleased by the fact that Aelwyn has decided to bring so many visitors to Jacob. Which is why there is a guard leading you down. One that has already explained that he has no intention of leaving you all alone with Jacob. There's simply too many thing...")
• 03:18, 2 January 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page What is in a Name (Created page with "As everyone files out of the room, leaving Tlanexhuani and Khepri alone with the mysterious Ilenzi. The mage waits a long moment, long enough for both to become uncomfortably aware of the feeling of hollowness that refuses to leave the chest. "It seems that we have some time to ourselves." The mage moves and waves a hand to conjure a steaming pot of tea and enough cups for the group. "Would either of you like some tea?" Khepri turns its head to stare at Ilenzi blankly,...")
• 01:27, 1 January 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Suspicion without Evidence (Created page with "The job posting was a simple one, a request about a possible missing person. The meeting with the person who had posted the request is today. Slowly you all file into a meeting room at the Adventures Guild, and awaiting you is a guild secretary named Giles standing behind a young woman seated at a table with chairs enough for you all. The young woman is obviously human, her hair cut short in a sort of pixy style and she looks... very young. Probably no more than sixteen...")
• 20:42, 27 December 2023 Aftershock talk contribs created page Removing a Thorn (Created page with "It's snowing in Bryn Myridorn. The capital city is a beautiful and vibrant place in the winter, and while Yule is fresh in the minds of many, with its decorations still adorning the buildings, it's an odd contrast to what's storming on Seldan's mind at the moment. All it took was one letter sent hastily in Synonie's hand to bring him here to the Temple of Daeus. The building is one that Seldan would know well. There's a number of acolytes inside, cleaning or tending to...")
• 23:48, 22 December 2023 Aftershock talk contribs created page An Effort At Peace (Created page with "Through darkened streets and alleyways, Aragos makes his way through Alexandria. He does not stop, or falter in his path. Only slowing when someone makes to cross his path. His purple eyes are set and determined, yet also traced over with the edge of hopelessness. The paladin of Vardama passes several bars. Their open doors and tempting warmness do not sway him tonight. He passes them by one and all. Eventually he makes his way not to the river, or to some forlorn corne...")
• 07:12, 21 December 2023 Aftershock talk contribs created page Padaryn a Padaryn (Created page with "The Temple District Plaza, early afternoon. Earlier that morning, word had arrived from Seldan that his grandmother was again accepting visitors. He would like to go as soon as they may, and his family, while not noble, expect neat and presentable attire. It's now early afternoon, and a cold wind under a wan blue sky whisks a few dead leaves along the cobblestones. A few get caught in the legs of one of the benches near the fountain, rustling and trembling in the force...")
• 03:28, 20 December 2023 Aftershock talk contribs created page Sweet Memory (Created page with "It has taken Thoth quite a bit to come to terms with this idea of what it has been feeling. It has held onto the beautiful orb for a while now, knowing it may very well contain its own memories. Or perhaps it will contain someone else's memories. Yet, in truth, it is afraid of what it might find out. That maybe, its own memories aren't accurate. It has investigated these orbs before. Divination magic. No altering. No corruption or evil. So then why has it been afraid to...")

The woman who had agreed to help Lheo and Theo find the warehouse where Zero had been taken leads them through alleyway and alleyway until she stops and points at a door with a painted sign hanging above it: a pony with a heart in its center. "That's the Friendly Pony Company," the woman says. "Now, the men inside are about a...")

Caster Level: 20 DC: 20 As Seldan states his last words, something miraculous happens. Every single person hears words that are said in familiar voices to them. For Seldan and Telamon, the words are in the voice of a young woman. For Verna, the words are said in an ageless, genderless voice. For Zeke, the words are said in the voice of a man.

Those who might be staying at the temple for a little while. He looks wildly out of place really, all black armor and a permanent scowl set onto his features. The bed is recently made, and the paladin of Vardama has a plush animal held in his gauntleted fists. Carefully. So that it is not ruined by the spikes that lace his armor. It's a little wolf.

• 19:24, 9 November 2023 Aftershock talk contribs created page Jailhouse Visit (Created page with "It is a gray, gray day. Made more so by the rough stone interior of the Arcanist's Guild. After Aelwyn had put out a few feelers to look into what had happened to Jacob (and the other members of the Crimson Circus), he might well have been surprised to learn that Jacob had somehow landed himself not in the normal jail which Alexandria had - and where the rest of the Crimson Circus troupe had found themselves in the aftermath of the day that they had performed... But rath...")

Seeing that the tea is already being made, the maid is... without much to do. "Should you require any reagents or other amenities for spellcasting," Cosette says, "I would suggest you enter the last room in which you have not been yet. That would be... Master Padaryn's study.

A massive volcano, home to a community named after the volcano itself. As they step along the path, having arrived here through teleportation or more conventional ways, they can feel a certain 'pressure' in the air. This nervous sense of those within the walls of Ketsalkuetspaltahtepetl. They've already passed a few outlying communities, houses that have now gone empty. A divine message r...")

The village of Dalornik, primarily a dwarven settlement, nestled in between peaks of the famed central mountain range of Khazad Duin, is what can be politely referred to as a shepherding community. The people live and die (and dye) by the herds of sheep that are tended to there. Meat and wool are the primary exports of the village, with generations of spinners and fiber crafters that go back for many, many years. Which means it's...")

One of the breaches in the wall has been put back together, sealed with goblin muscle, sweat, and a little divine assistance.

The skies are cloudy today, gray and sullen as Autumn gives way inexorably to Winter. The air chill, but at least there's no snow on the ground -- yet. The cobblestoned path leads onward towards the fortified Abbey of the Master of Librarians, known colloquially as the Bookshelf. Unsurprisingly, it's a well built comp...")

The wild elf - as always - has outdone herself in preparation for their guest. There's fresh-baked bread, the scent of which is thick enough to make even an already-full stomach reconsider, cheese, and meat on a platter on the table in the middle of the space. There's fresh tea as well of course, and a special treat of little jam-fi...")

So named apparently by the lord whose lands this first was. His castle actually still stands on the side of the mountain overlooking the valley and it's easy to spot as you enter the valley itself. As you approach the village itself there are two, very tall figures who are just outside the village. A man with the head of a bull, and a man with two lobster-lik...")

They've been perhaps more cagey about their performance than your usual circus, but it seems that they have the right idea about it because their silence on the matter has resulted in a huge turnout. It's not often that Alexandria sees performers come to entertain and everyone is excited to see what this circus has in store. The tent has dimmed the light of the sun, but there's a hole in the center of the tent ceiling...")

The sky is blue, the clouds puffy and white as they drift across the great expanse of the heavens. Auranar is sitting on her porch, watching people as they wander through the temple district. Few come out so far as the Temple of Vardama which is situated here on the far edge of the Temple District, and fewer still notice the stone-wrought home that belongs to Auranar and Ve...")

The tea seems utterly forgotten actually, and his green eyes are far away in thought. A lunch sits at his side on the bench - equally forgotten as the blue-scale sits there. Obviously there is something on his mind. The doors to the Temple of Eluna open, and Telamon steps out, dressed in an oddly casual ensemble -- a long-...")

It hardly seems to matter to anyone in here that winter is on the rise. No, the room is warm with the activity of so many different people going about their business.

It isn't too terribly long after prayers on a gray and misty morning, and the temple is just starting to set about their usual tasks for the day. Another peaceful day. A girl of about ten or so with curly black hair, dressed in the blue robes of an Althean acolyte, dodges and weaves her way amid the hubbub at a breakneck pace, followed by a Sunblade barely old enough to have a beard.

The few trees in this area, mostly in the spectator section, are dressed in reds, oranges, yellows, and a few purples for the occasion, and the humidity has, if not entirely left, slacked off a good deal, at least.

There's also something to be said about having a room to oneself, too, aboard the airship. It's the sort of thing that bardic songs and poetry is written about: sailing in the air, back and forth from adventure, and all of the derring-do that comes with it.

It's misty up here, and the ship flies through the edge of an occasional cloud, leaving droplets of chill water on _everything_. Still, the flight is uneventful, if cold, and Lheo has found himself a relatively sheltered spot in the lee of the wind that rushes past the deck.

With the noble and the girl settled, and the pay in his hand, now it's time for him to see to himself. The journey back had been an increasingly painful one, but there hadn't been time to stop, not if he was to keep the woman from changing. The holy symbol he'd put around her neck had helped a lot - in fact, had made i...")

The campfire goes up, and Dolan pauses, then ducks quickly back out of the line of sight. He hisses between his teeth, as quietly as he can manage, "Not alone. Can't tell if it's her." Halani remains flat, beside Dirk. She can't contain her continuing grin over the result of the dwarf's excellent aim and the spectacular diversion.. but she also does her best to keep an eye on that tent where Dolan and Verna are supposed to be, ready to move if it seems like they'r...")

Holding for Hostages (Part 2) (Created page with ""If it is of any consolation," Verna offers to Dirk, "I would have allowed our noble lord to continue bleeding. His wound would not become life-threatening for several more hours." She is already moving to Dolan with her kit when he mentions his need. "I see," she acknowledges Dolan's concerns as she examines his wounds and works to bind them. "I shall endeavor to bind them well, so that you earn no concerned wrath, that your posterior remains unstruck, and any time spen...")

It helps that drinks are half-price for the next hour. A cunning business choice from the bartender this evening. Thus the place is bustling, full of happy drinkers and waitresses busing tables. It's a good evening so far, as long as one isn't stuck outside. Mikilos keeps to the end of the bar, since all the dark corners are usually taken, sipping a mug of mulled wine...")

He requested someone to aid him in locating his lady-love after she was kidnapped by bandits. It's a pretty straight-forward mission all told. Though he'd insisted on coming along. Like a fool. He's got a rapier at his hip, but he doesn't carry it like he knows how to use it. His eyes are a little too wide. His nerves wound a little too tight. He shouldn't be here. The weather is lovely at least for the firs...")
• 03:38, 21 April 2022 Aftershock talk contribs created page Silver for an Answer (Created page with "Everyone is tucked away from the warmth of the day, a surprising burst of it in the midst of the spring rains that have been falling. You've gathered in Dolan's sickroom, the meeting place to try and gather those that know something of the werewolves that have been attacking to speak to a representative of the Temple of Eluna changed last-minute to accommodate the still bed-ridden man. Eventually a woman enters the room, an elvish one wearing regal robes that declare he...")

A curious state of affairs that had caused some discussion in the rain outside the gates, but the lieutenant stated two reasons. The first was that he belongs to the Daeusite temple - a thing that is at least partially true, as he certainly belongs to the Sunlord at the least; the second, that the temple was closer to the g...")

It only comes down heavier as Dolan rushes the massive wolf inside the gates. Telamon's retreat is timely, and the wolf doesn't chase him. Instead it stands as though it's guarding the entrance into the city. Its black fur is matted from the rain, and the chill wind that cuts through the night does nothing to ruffle it. Dolan's initial attack goes wide, and immediately the giant wolf retaliates. One massive paw swipes down, cutting a sw...")

The grass is mostly mud underfoot. It's a slog to the top of a hill where a strange stone cap was found by some people settling in this area. New settlers on the verge of Alexandrian territory, so you've spent a long time getting here. Most of it trudging through rain. The muddy hill isn't that strange, but the stone cap on the top is a bit unusual. It's a circular pour of stone that covers the top of...")

It matters even less when one is well into their cups and determined to drink the day away. The pub is quiet at the moment, but given the time of day that's not unusual. There's a dark-haired man sitting at the bar, his black overcoat laid out on the bar so that his bristling armor is wholly visible. There's a massive blade leaning against the bar as well. Close at han...")

While Daechir is an excellent cook, he should not be required to sustain either or both of them for every hunger nor hankering. As well, it might be good for both of them to get out and about and attempt some semblance of normalcy. Perhaps one day she will feel confident in providing for him. For now, however... he only just returned to the liv...")

Well, hopefully not -too- filled with sweets just yet, or Verna's voluminous robes may soon no longer fit her. Along that vein, however, one of the numerous adaptations from communal living to a more personal domicile (and KITCHEN!) has been the acquisition of foodstuffs to prepare meals. Verna has attempted to do so greatly as of late, to contribute in some way to the food preparation. Admittedly, 'as of late' has not been an extensive stretch; a day...")

An even colder wind slices through the night air, threatening coats and hats and one goes tumbling off a man's brow whilst he is unwary. He trudges unhappily after the rolling piece of fabric and the line moves a little closer to...")

Sure the request came through the Adventurer's Guild, but it originated from the temple. You were informed during the pre-mission briefing that a mound had been found on the far north-eastern border of Alexandria. This mound it seems has been the source of a few disappearances (or at least blamed for them) and so an investigation of it is necessary. It's taken you a c...")

The tavern itself is a bustle with people. Most of them stick to the edges of the room, and talk is quiet. Muted. There's no music playing to ease the feeling of vague tension here. It feels like there's a fight brewing, but no one is arguing. Not yet in any case. The tables are decorated by fresh blue roses, and the waitresses are on point tonight....")

A gorgeous blue sky plays host to a pale moon rising and a brilliant sun making its slow descent to retire for the evening. Few of the tradesmen are at work and are enjoying a lazy Eliday afternoon making this particular western district relatively quiet. Somewhere off the beaten path-- far from what anyone would describe as a 'prime location'-- is a plot that's little more than a neglected forge, an unpainted w...")

After a long, indecisive moment he picks out a tea and things move forward as though he hasn't been staring at that cupboard for far too long. "I think that the orange ginsing would be best at this hour." It's a bit late in the evening, and he talks to the only other person in the house. He pours water from the kettle into a tea pot...")

There's a heavy mist outside, and the humidity lingers inside as well. Making the air slightly thick. Some of you were requested from the adventurer's guild, to act as guards for the witch brought back from the mountain. Others are here out of curiosity about the witch who is rumored to have knowledge about the nightmares plaguing the city of late as well as the werewolf attacks. So you're in the temple, but not the main hall. You...")

In truth, there is a piece of him that screams to yield before it, but he ignores that piece in silence, instead taking on the mien of the alabaster pillar he often uses. "That boon is that you consider what is being said to you. For do not we stand with you, and desire the same as you? But how shall we achieve that, without acknowledgin...")

There's a paladin of the goddess before you, looking tired. He has shaggy off-brown hair that's grown slightly long from a military cut. As though he needs a haircut but hasn't had a chance to get one in a month or two. He's a bit on the short side, but he makes up for it in musculature. His armor sparkles with good care, but his tabard is a bit dirty. Washed one too many times to be pure in color anymo...")
