The sun shines down except for the odd occurence of a cloud whimsically floating by, shielding the Earth from its rays. The townspeople - That is, the people who occupy the Town - walk to and fro, whatever their objectives are for the day unknown to each other. This ignorance of one another keeps them in line, keeping them calm, collected, and deeply apathetic for their fellow man. Every so often, a loud noise would break the almost monotonous hustle and bustle of a million feet shuffling around the ground as some foreign man shouts at someone down the road in a mixture of his own language and broken Common. These are a few of the things that you might observe whilst you walked through the streets.\n\nAn NPC lad looks up to the sky, staring at the puffy white clouds lulling about aimlessly. He attempted to interpret the cloud's relevance - a shape, a familiar outline of an animal, or a childish inanimate object, such as the children do on a day as this. However, he could not help but notice that no matter how hard he tried, the best shape he could imagine were long, old, gorilla turds.\n\nExactly 19 birds flew by in a standard V-formation. In his mind, the child wondered why God just wouldn't allow the birds an even 20. It seemed like they deserved at least that much. He kept your eyes on the alphabetically aligned fowls for awhile, until something else caught his attention. One of the old gorilla turds seemed to dissipate into nothingness, as if it had decided to commit some sort of ritual suicide for being such a crappy cloud (no pun intended).\n\nSquinting, the boy kept his pupils trained carefully on where the cloud had once been. Was his mind playing tricks on him, or was something approaching? Something approaching quite fast. It seemed like nothing more than speck to him - a forgotten blot of ink left on the paper by a lazy artist, begging to be wiped away. But instead, it seemed to be spreading, growing larger.\n\nHis ears perceived sound. A sharp, high pitched whistle. It started out low, a ringing noise, but began to quickly escalate. Soon enough, it caught the attention of various passer-by, who joined the lad in staring at the sky, attempting to determine the origin of the noise, the speck as if they were going to win a prize for guessing it first.\n\nThe whistle grew louder, grew sharper. Everyone's eardrums began to pound. They could not resist covering them as they continued watching the once insignifcant speck, now forming something almost coherent. At least, more coherent than the crap-cloud that it had evaporated not so long ago.\n\nIt took a few more seconds, but finally everyone came to a conclusion - it was a distinctly human form, wrapped in an orange glow as friction exploded around him. The lad wanted to stand up, shout \"What the hell, that's a dude!\" as if he had just watched The Crying Game, but the familiar feelings of shock and\/or awe robbed him of his voice, as if their personifications had wrapped a lasso around his esophagus and pulled it shut tightly. His body locked up as he continued staring. It became apparent to him that the whistling was not the only noise that this space-man was issuing forth. A deeper noise, like that of a fusillade of cannons, slowly drifted into his ears. His entire body shivered when he finally made out the call:\n\n\"<span style=\"color:magenta\">I WANNA ROCK!!!<\/span>\"\n\nEveryone in the immediate vicinity only had enough time to perceive the voice before whoever this strange being was collided with the ground. A massive impact robbed everyone of their balance, throwing them violently to their feet. A noise like a bomb going off rocked the area as a crater bore itself into the ground like a neumatic drill. The chaos lasted only a second before everything was quiet again.\n\nThe man in the center of the crater stood up, wiping some loose dust off of his sleeve.\n\n\"<span style=\"color:magenta\">Wonder if there are any good bars around here.<\/span>\" He said, hopping out of the impossibly large hole he had dug with his impact.

Stone lanterns provide a pure white light to the path, while casting elegant shadows among the trees.\n\nAt the end of the pathway, a bright red gate stands. A large fox carved from white alabaster gleams at each side of the gate. As you pass between the foxes and through the gate, you feel the presence of the goddess. Gentle and caring, but mischievous and lighthearted, you are never quite certain what will happen.\n\nPast the exquisite formal gardens, you finally step into the pagoda itself. There, at the end of chamber is a raised dais. There rests a statue of a beautiful werefox woman, flanked by two snow-white celestial foxes. Offerings of rice and incense stand before the statue.\n\nIn a niche off to the right side of the door sits a Fox-Cola vending machine. Next to the coin slot, the sign reads \"10 cp\";.\n\nTo the left side of the door is a magic mirror. This mirror is actually a portal to Trog's Tavern.\n\n<b>Temple Map<\/b><details>\n<summary>Spoiler<\/summary>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/i58.photobucket.com\/albums\/g265\/ttstocks\/NewTempleMap.gif\"\/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/i58.photobucket.com\/albums\/g265\/ttstocks\/TempleUnderground.gif\"\/>\n<\/details>\n\n<b>Temple View<\/b><details>\n<summary>Spoiler<\/summary>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/i58.photobucket.com\/albums\/g265\/ttstocks\/Temple.gif\"\/>\n<\/details>\n\n<b>Profile for Inari<\/b><details>\n<summary>Spoiler<\/summary>\nAlignment: Chaotic Good\nPrimary Domains: Good, Plant, Chaos, Healing\nSecondary Domains: Magic, Sun, Animal, Trickery, Knowledge, Water\nForbidden Domains: Evil, Law, War, Death, Destruction\n\nGoddess of the cultivation and growth of rice, including rice products.

He takes out five coloured rods \"The five elements: water, wood, earth, metal, and fire.\" He places them in a pentagonal arrangement, then separates out 36 more \"36 passions assail the soul: things such as love, hate, fear, pride, hunger, and so on. There is one rod for each passion. Additionally, each passion can be in the past, the present, or the future. Three states of thirty-six give one hundred eight.\" He finally takes another dozen rods \"The dragons control the doing of things... energy, you might say, but it is more complex than that. One of my great searchings is to learn the glyphs for more dragon-kings to add to my power. I always carry these twelve, though.\"\n\nMagician smiles \"The rods themselves are bamboo, with the proper glyphs painted on with special ink in a particular fashion.\" Magician separates the rods into piles \"In and of themselves they do nothing. I use them to make patterns, and with those patterns I can modify the elements, influence passions, and command the dragon spirits. We call modifying the elements 'alchemy'. We call the influencing of passions 'divination', and we call commanding the dragon spirits 'sorcery'. Allow me to demonstrate\" Magician first arranges the elemental rods, he takes one of the passions and lies it across fire and metal, then swiftly places a dragon rod across it. Lightning crackles along his hand, and he points it at the ground outside: a lightning bolt leaps out and scorches a patch of dirt. Magician smiles \"I apologize for the clumsiness of those passes. As you gain proficiency with the rods, you need not do all steps separately. I had not done the individual passes for the thunder dragon in many years. I must also say that there is also one more rod, but I do not bring it out without great need.\"\n\nMagician smiles again, picking up a rod \"These aren't any random glyphs: they are the true names of the elements, passions, and dragon spirits. When placed into the proper arrangements in the proper sequence and timing, the overall patterns become impressed onto the universe itself: with corresponding effects.

When some morsel of food got close enough, the teeth began spinning as if on a conveyor belt, emitting a shrill noise like a power drill as it completely vaporizes the object into its prime components, which the creature promptly swallows. To those who can see through the piercing darkness, its head is all that can be seen, for the rest of its body is somehow, inexplicably, tucked into its neck, propelling it forward at a constant rate.

Entry to the cavern is free but requires some investigating in order to find it. At the antechamber before the UnderTown, a several lines of brains in jars stand guard alongisde the walls. Blackguards patrol this area very intensely, along with a contingent of the undead who see the UnderTown as a most welcome habitat.\n\nThe main cavern of the system is like a deep amphitheater with 'steps' twenty feet in height. There are eleven levels of these steps and at the very center, on the lowest level, is a strange building built like a tall rectangular cube that narrows to half its length and width as you look down it. Inside is the main chamber for Maerok and an extradimensional portal to his private demiplane.\n\nConstruction of a building is without cost or license so long as the member contributes to the defense of the UnderTown as well as furthering its ideals.\n\nGetting to the UnderTown is usually a matter of finding one of the correct manholes of the Town's streets, or a secret passageway within buildings. In the graveyard, there is a rather large mausoleum with a two-headed lion. Casting an <i>inflict <\/i>spell (or any negative energy effect) will open a passage into somewhere in the UnderTown, though it is never the same even for two consecutive uses.

Please LINK to the thread where the crime was committed. We play this as real time, so if we enter the building after the crime, all we can do is collect evidence\/statements to prove the crime. If we are in the building while the crime is happening, that officer may make an arrest on the spot. If a crime happens, and there is no officer around, then the police don't know (although we may read OOC) that a crime happened.\n\n((To Link,\n1.

Normal murders would be the evidence searching thing, but hits on police officers would be different.\n\n1 hit: Arrested\n2 hits: Both arrested\n3 hits: Police choose one person to arrest, the organization the suspect belongs to (mafia\/troupe\/temple\/horde\/gang who decided to group together to make a police kill) members choose another one to be arrested by the police\n4 hits: Police choose one person to arrest\n5 hits: Organization choose one person to be taken by the police\n6 hits: Everyone involved in the attack goes free\n10+ hits: every goes free, 3 (Organization chooses who) of the participants cannot be arrested for the next crime they commit.\n\nThis must be hits in a row, if a random poster pops in and interrupts the hit, it stops the attack. Also one person = one hit, so for 3+ hits to happen, 3 different members have to attack.

This term applies to any extent of control, especially including any reactions to something you have done.\n\nUsing this definition of godmodding condenses our rule \u2018Do not Godmod\u2019 to one very simple but inclusive rule: Do not control someone else\u2019s character. This seems a simple enough thing to avoid, but in some situations (such as combat) people take control in a limited way without realizing it.\nStill using combat as our example, here are three examples of godmodding. One blatant, one general, and one subtle in successive order:\n (And yes, Vael is me. Darn my godmodding! \ud83d\ude09)\n\n1. Vael shoots a blast of energy at (PC) and the energy rends (PC) who falls dead with a wail.\n2. Vael swings a sword at (PC) and strikes home, leaving a small angry red line of blood.\nThe third example is split into two posts by two separate people to show the entire situation:\n3. Post (PC) \u2013 (PC) draws his weapon and readies himself for combat, going on the defensive.\nPost (Vael) \u2013 Vael slashes (NPC), giving him a gaping wound and reverses the attack, striking at (PC)\n\nThe first example of godmodding is obvious, I attacked someone and killed them, usurping all of their control over their character, not even allowing them to describe how they died.\nThe second example is fairly noticeable as well. I attacked and rather than allowing them control over their character, I went ahead and said that they were hit rather than giving them a chance to respond.\nThe last one is a rather subtle godmod, though it is still there. I did not post a definite reaction for the PC, only saying that I attacked them. I did not kill anyone\u2019s NPC without their permission, only using the NPC with general license. However, what I did do was presume that I hit the NPC. What if (PC), or another person nearby had wanted to prevent me from harming the NPC? I effectively denied them a chance to react to my attack, though my use of the NPC was okay.\n\nGodmodding in non-combat situations is just as bad as doing it within combat. Some examples of non-combat godmodding are as follows:\n\n1. Vael casts Heal and cures (PC)\u2019s wounds.\n2. Stealthily Vael picks (PC)\u2019s pocket and steals (something).\n3. Vael dodges the bouncer blocking the door and runs outside.\n\nIn the first example I did not allow someone the chance to say how grievous their injury was, or even if they had something that would resist healing spells. In short, they lost a chance to react. You would normally assume people like getting healed, but in town people are crazy, so you never know.\nSecond example. What if the character is sharp-eyed, clever, or simple lucky? Again, try to do something rather than succeed.\nThird example. Now this seems okay, and perhaps in responding to someone else\u2019s post it would be. But if someone says \u201cI block the door\u201d and you run past them without letting them respond, it is godmodding. This, perhaps, is not the best example, as it could be either godmodding or a reaction statement that is fine. I include it merely so that you can see that there are different levels to godmodding, and that it is complex to determine whether some things are godmodding are not. If you aren\u2019t sure, don\u2019t act, try to act.\n\nNow that I have defined godmodding and given some examples, the question to answer is: How can I avoid godmodding by accident?\nThe answer is this: You can try to do anything to someone, but they control what actually happens to themselves. Never deny someone a chance to react, no matter what you do. Before you post, consider what you have written. Do you directly affect someone with it, adversely or positively? Do you block them off from some options that someone would normally have in their situation? If the answer to either question is yes, you probably need to revise your post.\nNote, however, that the definition states that this is only godmodding if you do <b>not<\/b> have someone\u2019s permission. If you obtain someone\u2019s OOC permission to godmod, then feel free to godmod against them within their restraints. However, I recommend that you merely work out someone\u2019s response before time, just in case something unexpected comes up (like another player interfering).\n\n<b><span style=\"color:blue\">[NEW]<\/span><\/b> <span style=\"color:blue\">However, just as bad as taking control of someone else's character is making your own never get affected by them. As Regiji says: \"The counter part to an irresistable force is an immovable object.\" Therefore, you should let people at least achieve SOMETHING when they attempt to affect you. You don't have to all the time, but if your character is continually \"immovable\" you will be godmodding, and people will be extremely likely to ignore you. So don't just \"I dodge\" everything, okay? Let people do something to you if they try.<b>[\/NEW]<\/b><\/span>\nAlso note that there is another form of godmodding similar to the above, which will be known as \u2018passive godmodding\u2019 (kudos to Iames for the name). Passive godmodding is when a player ignores an entirely legitimate post for little to no reason. If you miss reading a post, that is one thing, but to ignore a post intentionally is very bad form. You are allowed to react to someone\u2019s post in nearly any way you want, but ignoring it really should not be done unless they are godmodding or adversely affecting an ongoing plot without permission.

They all have something in common, a badge. This badge certifies that they are members of a squad developed and devoted to doing just one thing, stopping crime. They are the Town Police.\n\nAs you walk into the foyer you can see a large doorway on the right in what you're sure is an outside wall. Looking through it you can see a set of metal stairs leading down to some more cells. A sign above the doorway says <b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.giantitp.com\/forums\/showthread.php?t=17677\">Cell Block Extension.<\/a> <\/b>A sign over the front desk reads \"Amulets of Trueseeing in Operation.

The suspect will be in jail for a period of time according to the crime, after which the criminal will be released back into town. Due to rights for a speedy trial, the criminal will be held at max for 48 hours in the station if we can't settle it in court.\nWhen arresting, police must first ask the criminal to come quietly, and then if they do not they may subdue them, using lethal force at their discretion. Criminals wanted for murder, battery, or assault should expect lethal force to be used against them.\n\n{table=\"head\"]<b>The Crime<\/b>\|<b>The Punishment<\/b>\|<b>Other<\/b>\nMurder\|36 hours\|No bail, resurrection fine, one week parole and weapon restriction.\nBattery\|24+ hours\|2,000gp bail and healing fine, one week parole and 3 day weapon restriction\nAssault\|18 hours\|1,000gp bail, 3 day parole and weapon restriction\nResisting Arrest\|6 hours\|no bail, 3 day parole and weapon restriction\nKidnapping\|24 hours\|2,000gp +(500 * days kidnapped) as fine, week parole.\nPoisoning\|24 hours\|2,000gp, week parole, healing expenses\nTorture\|48 hours\|No bail, 500 to 3,000 fine and week parole\nTheft\/Robbery\|12 to 24 hours\|500 bail + gold equal to stolen items\nVandalism\|12 hours\|Pay for repairs, one day of community service\nForgery\|6 hours\|500gp\nDesecration\|6 hours \|500gp, one day of community service to temple\nJay walking\|No hours\|50gp\nDisturbing the Peace\|6 hours\|150gp\nBar Brawls\|6 hours\|300gp plus paying for your share of the damages\nStreaking\|6 hours\|150gp\nContempt of Court\|6 hours\|No bail\nTrespassing\|6 hours\|100gp[\/table]\n\n<b> Internal Discipline\n<\/b>Officers who are discovered to be neglectful or willfully derelict in their duty will be subject to disciplinary action.

Anyone posting information in the station without a badge will be considered giving us a 'tip', but if the evidence is not collected by the police, it can not be submitted as evidence. Please LINK to the thread where the crime was committed. We play this as real time, so if we enter the building after the crime, all we can do is collect evidence\/statements to prove the crime. If we are in the building while the crime is happening, that officer may make an arrest on the spot.

A police officer will receive weekly pay of 100gp, weapons (of your choice), weapon repair, and riot gear, a desk at the station, and room and board in the station barracks should they want to.\nSenior Officers receive no pay increase, but have authority over other officers (within reason). Sergeants receive 125gp\/week, have authority over Officers and Senior Officers, and can deputize citizens during an arrest, while Detectives in the force receive pay of 150gp each week, have authority over the lower ranks, may deputize citizens and swear in new officers, and handle police station political matters should the captain be off duty.\nThe badges given to the police act as badges of Trueseeing, and allow the police officer to contact any other badge-wearer with telepathy. They can either be pinned on, or aligned with the body's magnetic field to simply hold onto the wearer.\nTo be sworn in, you must first pass an alignment test. We accept no officers with Chaotic or Evil alignments. Once this test has been passed, the potential officer must answer the following questions in the affirmative:\n<details>\n<summary>Spoiler<\/summary>\nDo you swear to uphold the law in this town?\n\nDo you promise to obey the rules of the police as noted on page 1 of the police station thread?\n\nDo you swear to the best of your ability to track and record crimes as well as apprehend and arrest criminals?\n<\/details>\n\n\nOur motto:\nTO PROTECT AND SERVE THE GOOD CITIZENS OF TOWN.\n\n<b>Officers of the Force<\/b>\nPlease report crimes to any of the following officers.\n{table]<a href=\"http:\/\/www.giantitp.com\/forums\/member.php?u=14352\">Captain Verdandi<\/a>\|A dandy officer if we ever had one, but don't think you can handle her just because she's pretty.\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.giantitp.com\/forums\/member.php?u=593\">Detective Narfang<\/a>\|Diversity at the police force just took another step in the right direction.\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.giantitp.com\/forums\/member.php?u=7706\">Detective Aerin Hitomi<\/a>\|A fiery red head, with emphasis on the \"fiery\".\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.giantitp.com\/forums\/member.php?u=12087\">Sergeant Al the Mutt<\/a>\|With a nose that knows, he's taking a bite out of crime.\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.giantitp.com\/forums\/member.php?u=20067\">Senior Officer Secret Agent Stick Omega<\/a>\|From another dimension, he's got gadgets galore.\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.giantitp.com\/forums\/member.php?u=15270\">Officer Babhdan<\/a>\|What is up with that h?\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.giantitp.com\/forums\/member.php?u=20772\">Officer Silas<\/a>\|A mysterious man whose hands turn into weapons.

That is to say, he fell in through the roof, screaming. He descended as lightly as a feather with a large rock tied to it. Sneak groaned as he collided into the floor with a sickening Thud!, much like the noise a troll\u2019s club makes when it connects with the skull of a dwarf. This was going to be one of those days. Just like every other day spent in the Town.\n\t\nHe picked himself up off the floor and staggered over to the bar like an ungainly chicken on crack. He looked around the tavern. He listed the patrons of the bar in his mind: there was some guy who was on fire, three gods, seven demigods, Cthulhu, that annoying little brat, the ugly guy, that chick with the weird hair, thirteen and a half epic level characters, and Old Bob, who thought his eyeballs were dragons. Sneak ordered a drink and leaned back in his chair.\n\t\nOne of the gods had apparently cheated on his epic level girlfriend with the God girlfriend of a demigod. Cthulhu was apparently involved too, but Sneak couldn\u2019t quite figure out how. The god and the demigod were currently focused on what looked like the Macarena, but was probably supposed to be a duel to the death, judging by the ridiculously focused looks on their faces.\n\n\tSuddenly, a muscular man in full plate with a large sword about as big as California burst into the room.\n\t\n<span style=\"color:red\">\u201clol im gona kil u wit my big sword LOL!!!!! i rool heehee u dead hahahaa sucker ur mom is fat u stupid assface!!!111!!\u201d<\/span> the man shrieked.\n\t\nThe man took the sword off of his back and attacked Old Bob with it. The man lopped off Old Bob\u2019s head, slapped him silly with a rubber chicken, and promptly left.\n\n\tBob grumbled to himself, reattached his head, and ordered another drink.\n\t\n<span style=\"color:green\">\u201cGodmodder! I\u2019m going to tell a mod!\u201d<\/span> one of the gods shouted at Bob.\n\n <span style=\"color:blue\">\u201cWe\u2019re gonna report your sorry ass!\u201d yelled another.<\/span>\n\n The two duelists had apparently resolved their differences enough to scream at Old Bob together, a steady stream of obscenities tumbling from their mouths.\n\t\nSneak sighed, rolled his eyes, and walked out of the tavern, conveniently forgetting to pay, just as Old Bob started to transform into a giant worm. He felt slightly stupider. Yes, that is possible. Historians would remember this period in Sneak\u2019s life as the Great Brain Cell Massacre of \u20180194717 Z.F.\u2019<\/i>\n<b>* * * * * * * <\/b>\n\n\tSneak turned off the television set and looked around the tavern. Blood was sleeping. Kyrian was kissing three different people at the same time. Iames was waking up and saying hello to Verdandi. Aerin was also waking up and saying hello to Verdandi, curiously enough. Some newbie was engaged in a passionate makeout session with a guy with an ugly handlebar mustache. Three shady looking men walked in and sat down at a table. An armored man came down the chimney carrying a bomb in one hand and a cake in the other. Cathrindir was being carried to the nearest temple on a stretcher while Mortia was getting married.\n\n\tSuddenly, Kyrian leapt up and hurled a suitcase at Iames. Three midgets burst into the room with machetes, roaring fiercely. Iames broke off his three-way conversation with himself\u2014I mean, uh, Aerin\u2014and Vera just in time to chant some mysterious incantation, causing a bolt of lightning to strike the spot where Kyrian had been standing a moment earlier, before he had leaped out of the way.\n\n Sneak leaned back in his chair to enjoy the show, deciding that watching television soap operas on television was obsolete.\n\n\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\n\nSomething I threw together quickly.","word-count":630,"index":44,"from-alternative":"User19"},{"from":"Kenyon","timestamp":"2006-11-18T20:28:00","value":"Two thumbs up!

There are also some large vaguely ominous sacks in one corner, and several doors on each wall.

The door creaks ominously as it swings open of its own accord, a heavy smell of must wafting out through the open door. The shack as a whole looks pretty nondescript. Until you step inside.\n\nThen it looks nothing like a Mafia headquarters, which makes sense, because it definitely isn't. It's a fairly large room, much larger than what you saw on the outside. There must be some magic at work. Tables, chairs, and stools are scattered around, and there's a bar at one end. Maybe the place used to be a tavern. There are also some large vaguely ominous sacks in one corner, and several doors on each wall. There's a large suspiciously unmarked crate in the corner with a note tacked on that says\n<blockquote>Only one rifle or musket per person, or take two poodles instead if you want.<\/blockquote>\n\nThe good news is that the musty smell is gone at least.

In fact, a desperate Morgana Le Fay, fleeing from an angry Lancelot stopped by a farmer's and stole the strange horse like creature that he had. The beast was too stupid to help her escape, so she tweaked its mind, giving it intelligence so it would know the best way to hide from the angry knight.\n\nMorgana ended up keeping the animal as a pet. It became a trusted advisor because of its cunning and deceptively cute nature. She didn't realize that when she tweaked its mind, she flooded its brain not only with intelligence, but with anger as well. One night, the llama drove an enchanted dagger through her chest, draining her magic into him. He then headed to Camelot, and through trickery, he slew Merlin in the same fashion. With the power of both magicians at his disposal, he trotted into a gathering of the Knights of the Round Table. 4 minutes later, only the llama emerged from the room, he was bleeding from many wounds, but he was victorous and now armed with the skill of the knights as well. He found King Arthur alone and they dueled. The llama gravely wounded the king and soon Arthur was spirited away to Avalon. The Dark LLama (as he was being called) had snuck on board and after reaching the Isle, his dagger had plunged into the hearts of Oberon and Titania as well as Arthur. Sadly, slaying Gods did not contain this creature's lust for power, it merely amplified it. The llama sought out other deities and powerful beings, slaying them with his vampiric dagger. At one point he used it to slash a being of pure chaos known only as The Snarl into tiny bits of string. The power this granted him stunned the llama just enough for the spirit of Merlin to appear and place a magical mask around the eyes of the Godraped! Then the soul of Morgana weaved some more magic into it.\n\nDark Llama awoke from his daze in a strange town. He started to leave and found that some strange piece of cloth around his face caused him great pain and agony at his attempt. It also nullified his mighty powers. Through intense training he has weakened the enchantments on his mask so that he can now access most of his power as well as leave the Town for small periods of time, but if he stays out too long or uses too much power the agony will begin until he returns or stops using the power he rightfully earned.\n\nThe Dark Llama has recently pledged to follow Inari in hopes that she will help him slip free of the wretched mask. He suspects she won't do so willingly because she knows that an unrestrained Dark Llama would kill her and everyone else, but hopefully she'll make a mistake and he'll capitalize on it. In the meantime, he enjoys her sacrifices and will often partake of any leftovers. The whole experiece has twisted his body to match his tainted soul.\n<img src=\"http:\/\/i74.photobucket.com\/albums\/i278\/wolfshonor\/llamas\/tiefllama.gif\"\/>))","word-count":528,"index":76,"from-alternative":"User28"},{"from":"Lykan","timestamp":"2006-08-20T08:59:00","value":"[Holy hell, mate...

A small boat washed ashore, the only occupant was an injured and weakened horse-like creature. It was taken to the healing temple and the clerics attempted to heal it. When they were unsuccessful, they summoned the head priest, Aratis. As soon as the priest entered the room, the creature began gagging and beginning to vomit. Aratis rushed to the creature's aid, the beast turned to the priest and stabbed him with a dagger it held in its mouth. The life drained from Aratis as the clerics leapt into action and tried to subdue the creature, but it overwhelmed them and slew them using magics and apparently its wool was made razorsharp. Fortunately, for the scholars, one cleric, Malazar, fled the assault and was able to give us this information on the creature.<\/blockquote>\n\n<span style=\"color:black\">Atreyu skims ahead a few paragraphs that details the destruction of the Temple of Healing and how Malazar had trouble convincing anyone of the threat.<\/span>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<blockquote>Finally Malazar ran to a paladin's guild and they did not question him so they followed him. Malazar tracked the murderous beast using magic to a home. Upon entering, they saw the llama engaged in mortal combat with worshippers of an evil deity. The paladins were thrown into confusion. They could not join the battle with the evil clerics for their code prevented such an alliance, but nor could they ignore the blood of their friends stained into the llama's wool. Some of the worshippers attacked the paladins, presumably assuming the quadruped was a mount to a paladin and they were under assault. When the worshippers attacked the paladins, the paladins retaliated and in the chaos both sides were slain and the most powerful on either side died impaled on the llama's dagger; their power feeding the twisted abomination. Malazar, saw the inevitable and hid. He claims to have seen horns growing from the llama's head in the aftermath of this battle.<\/blockquote>\n\nAtreyu starts skimming the book, looking for something in particular.\n\nAfter finding a drawing of the dagger (which I can't post because I don't have one), Atreyu rips the page out, closes the book, sends a threatening scowl at the librarian who is about to say something, and steps out of the library to begin searching the Mirror Town for a temple.\n<span style=\"color:darkorange\">\n<\/span>","word-count":627,"index":301,"from-alternative":"User28"},{"from":"Nevrmore","timestamp":"2007-02-15T03:25:00","value":"The wind itself is sucked into the growing storm raging above the mirrow town.

Icosahedronism is a religion which believes in many gods called \"players,\" who each control one mortal being through the use of dice, \"character sheets\" which give each persons abilities a numerical value, and experience points, which give a person power for overcoming obstacles. The gods, according to Icosahedronism, band together in small groups, with one supreme god leading each group, called a \"DM\" or \"Dungeon Master,\" who dictates the actions of all others in the immediate area besides the \"players\" characters.\n\nThe name of the Temple, as well as the very name Icosahedronism, come from the belief that the gods roll 20 sided dice, or Icosahedrons, to decide most mortal events.\n\nIn the center of the church is the altar, with pews surrounding it. In the middle of the altar is the Stairway to Heaven, which is believed to one day allow believers to \"break the fourth wall\" and enter heaven to meet their players.\n\nTo the left is the game room, filled with all sorts of games and fun, to emulate the gods themselves. You may also ask the diviners to find out what your character sheet looks like there.\n\nTo the right lies a corridor with several rooms. Most are the rooms of the priests and priestesses, but a few are different. There is a room where you may ask permission from the \"DM\" to grant you something, from magic items, to roleplaying XP to the ability to switch your scores around. There is also a feasting room, replenished by the gods themselves.\n\nTo become a Cleric, you must ask permission from a current Cleric.

Stone lanterns provide a pure white light to the path, while casting elegant shadows among the trees.\n\nAt the end of the pathway, a bright red gate stands. A large fox carved from white alabaster gleams at each side of the gate. As you pass between the foxes and through the gate, you feel the presence of the goddess. Gentle and caring, but mischievous and lighthearted, you are never quite certain what will happen.\n\nPast the exquisite formal gardens, you finally step into the pagoda itself. There, at the end of chamber is a raised dais. There rests a statue of a beautiful werefox woman, flanked by two snow-white celestial foxes. Offerings of rice and incense stand before the statue.\n\nIn a niche off to the right side of the door sits a Fox-Cola vending machine. Next to the coin slot, the sign reads \"10 cp\";.\n\nTo the left side of the door is a magic mirror.

You are greeted by a servant in white robes with golden patterns and stitches, ready to help you.\n\nThe main hall is ridiculously large and two round stairways (the brown parts) lead up to the second floor. The hall itself is covered with gold much like the entrance hall, small crystal dragons fly along the roof and sometimes puff out a bit of white smoke, the servants here are beautiful elven maidens in rather revealing white and golden outfits. In the middle is a large buffet always stocked with the most delicious and exotic foods. There always seem to be a few dozen noblemen and women here in a perpetual extravagant party.\n\nThe four towers are large white spire's with a flat roof where guards look to the surrounding area's, barracks 1 is for humanoid guards and has the usual bunk beds and dinner table, barracks 2 is for the robot guards and is filled with recharging and repair stations.\n\nThe garden in the back is beautifully done, with wild flowers growing in patterns and small secluded plaza's taken from sight by large bushes around it, where people can converse in piece or in the case of some of younger visitors, well let's keep that to your imagination...\n\nAt the back is a small room which leads down to the servant quarters.\n\n<img src=\"http:\/\/img.photobucket.com\/albums\/0903\/DeusMOrtus\/Tinderhall\/RiddletuckBasementJpegversion.jpg\"\/>\n\nThe servant's quarters are mainly dark corridors poorly lighted by candles with rooms in between.

He is known as the Puppetmaster and the Stringdancer. His worshipers include necromancers, tyrants and those who manupulate others in any sort of way. The domains he is assotiated with are Evil, Knowledge, Trickery and Law. His favored weapon is the greatsword.<\/span>\n<span style=\"font-size:small\">(My appologies to the Giant if I got this wrong, but it's what I see him as.)<\/span>\n<span style=\"font-size:small\">As you enter the temple, you are instantly aware of a dark preseance, as if you are being watched. Preists perform their dayly duties, some glancing distrustfuly at you as you walk past them. Should you continue down the pathway, lit on either side by tourches, you will come across a large room, in the center of which stands a statue of Banjulhu, glaring down at you. In his hands are two mayonet puppets, one human and the other an elf. This room is lit by several blue orbs, in which trapped lightning dances, sending the room into flashing shadows which apear and dissapear within and instant.<\/span>\n<span style=\"font-size:small\">If you wait long enough, a priest may ask you if you need any help. If Damian is in, you might ask if you might speak to him, you might ask to be taken to one of the alters to prey at, or you might ask one of the preists to cast a spell for you.<\/span>\n\nIn a small corner of the room is a magicly hidden portal. Damian is the only one who uses this portal, and anyone else who tries gets punished.

If it exists, you can find it in this store. If it exists and it isn\u2019t in the store, it can be found. If it does not exist and can be made, it will be. And the best part is that there are no set prices! One must only pay what they think the purchase is worth, no more and no less.\n <u>Exterior:<\/u> The outside of the OmniShop is that of a massive castle, including parapets and towers, built out of light gray stones. The front door is a large wooden double, capable of being blocked by iron bars that drop down from the stone above it. On either side of the OmniShop proper are attached two smaller (though still very large) buildings built in the same castle-like manner. They have no exterior doors.\n <u>Interior:<\/u> Upon walking through the doors a shopper would come to see a massive room filled with huge floor-to-ceiling shelves stocked with common to moderately uncommon items, all of which are available for purchase. After that they would be astounded by the room itself; the floor made of glistening white-marble tile, the walls of oak so heavily lacquered and polished that they seem to glow with a soft, warm light. The employees, dressed in their smartly-tailored uniforms, rush from place to place cleaning, polishing, and helping customers. Were one to turn right and travel halfway to the front of the store they would see a door leading to a fine-dining restaurant where one would be able to purchase and eat any type of food their bellies can imagine. If one were to follow that same procedure, only going to the left, they would find a door that leads to the OmniShop Inn. Yes, that\u2019s right! The OmniShop now truly does offer anything you want, including food and a good night\u2019s sleep! At the far end of the Omnishop are three counters, two of polished silver with a slightly larger golden one between them. At the left counter sits Gentlebot, Gent\u2019s personal assistant. At the right sits Gongjin, Ekrath\u2019s butler. At the center counter sits The Distinguished Gentleman himself. Behind the center counter are two doors, both inaccessible to the public. The door to the right leads to a staircase that provides access to the upper levels, where the truly rare items are. It is also in the upper levels where The Distinguished Gentleman makes his home. Gent, Gentlebot and Gongjin have keys to this door. The door to the left leads to the basement. Only Gent has access to this door.\n\n <b><u>Personnel:<\/u><\/b>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.giantitp.com\/forums\/showpost.php?p=1388305&postcount=164\"><u>The Distinguished Gentleman<\/u><\/a><u>:<\/u> The suave, sophisticated owner, operator and proprietor of the OmniShop. He functions as Master Salesman and, as the employer of the OmniShop\u2019s countless employees, reserves the right to tell them what to do.\n <u>Gentlebot (warforged):<\/u> Quiet, reserved and polite, he is Gent\u2019s right-hand man, a salesman, and possesses the authority to direct the other employees. He is in charge of the store when Gent is away. Due to his programming he refers to all fleshy individuals as \u2018meatbag\u2019. This is not an insult, however, and should not be taken as one.\n <u>Gongjin: (warforged):<\/u> Ekrath\u2019s inorganic butler, Gonjin is a salesman and clerk, taking careful inventories of every item within the walls of the store. He is more outgoing than Gentlebot and does not call people \u2018meatbag\u2019.\n <u>Knutz and Bholtz (steel-plated iron golems):<\/u> These two silent automatons function as The Distinguished Gentleman\u2019s personal bodyguards. They look and function like the Guard Leaders, though they do not share the leader\u2019s connection to the Guard Troopers.\n <u>The OmniShop Guard:<\/u> 100 guards patrol the OmniShop, inside and out, protecting the store, its wares, and its personnel. They are organized into ten groups of ten; the 90 <a href=\"http:\/\/i106.photobucket.com\/albums\/m278\/Sophistemon\/The%20Town\/robo1.gif\">Guard Troopers<\/a> being led, in groups of nine, by one <a href=\"http:\/\/i106.photobucket.com\/albums\/m278\/Sophistemon\/The%20Town\/heavyrobo1.gif\">Guard Leader<\/a> per group. The Troopers are seven feet tall and are armed with massive metal fists and a Gatling gun on their right shoulders. The Guard Leaders stand eight feet tall, have fists wreathed in crackling energy, have more powerful Gatling guns on either shoulder, and possess the ability to speak, though they only do so to issue orders to their squads.\n<u>Employees:<\/u> Dressed in identical gray uniforms, the employees number in the hundreds.

The only time in Dead Space that exists other than what travelers bring with them is more like a mineral than anything else. As soon as a person enters Dead Space they begin to lose time. Once their time runs out they become trapped in the moment. Basically, they no longer perceive time as passing. Most people who stumble into Dead Space have no way of know that this would happen and they end up frozen until someone times them back in or one of the critters that lives in Dead Space naturally finds and eats them.\"<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"Getting <i>back out<\/i> is also difficult. Normally, teleportation works by traveling through a continuous plane in close association with the plane one normally lives on. Dead Space isn't continuous with <i>anything<\/i> so machines or spells designed to teleport someone by the normal means won't work there.\"<\/span>\n\nThe Explorer chuckles and shakes his head.\n\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"And so, with that explained, this is where Old Prancibald comes into the story.\"<\/span>","word-count":197,"index":1310,"from-alternative":"User6"},{"from":"Sophistemon","timestamp":"2007-02-16T05:53:00","value":"Gent leans in.

A very eccentric powerful wizard. He had created a spell that would allow him to eat his dinner before his servants prepared it. An incredibly powerful spell, mind you. One that warped the very fabric of time and space into impossible configurations for his convenience.\" <\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"Like many things that warp time too far this rent a hole through the universe and pulled in Prancibald and most of his tower, his servants included. Now, due to the nature of normal magic attempting to call on the arcane energy when one is separated from it by a literally <i>infinite<\/i> expanse is hard. Most any normal wizard would have been restricted to using lowly cantrips when before they could fling fireballs. Fortunately for Prancibald he was anything but a normal wizard.\"<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"Now, when many people are in one place their time is lost more slowly. Prancibald, being the intelligent fellow that he is, figured out this and other properties of the odd new place he found himself in. He also discovered that stockpiling large amounts of crystallized quintessence, crystallized <i>time<\/i> could replenish the time of himself and his servants. He saw the difficulties of using magic in Dead Space as a new interesting challenge rather than as a curse and the whole affair simply made an already ridiculously powerful wizard even more powerful.\"<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"Now, he had figured out how to make himself effectively immortal long before he was pulled into Dead Space, so he had as much time to learn about it as he needed. He built up quite the reputation as one of the tiny handful of competent magic users in that particular region of Dead Space. Despite his fame and prosperity he began to grow tiered of the endless twilight and decided to find a way to return home. Everyone told him the task was impossible, but that's what they had said about being able to eat dinner before fixing it as well.\"<\/span>\n\nMaph'tey grins.\n\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"And this is where my part in the story begins to take shape.\"\n<\/span>","word-count":353,"index":1313,"from-alternative":"User6"},{"from":"Sophistemon","timestamp":"2007-02-16T06:24:00","value":"Gent smiles and conjures a large pot of steaming coffee and several mugs.

Ah! Yes. The years of experiments. Prancibald deduced that the only way that he could ever hope to get back into the multi-verse was by finding a way to forge a bridge from Dead Space back into the Realm he had come from. Or at least another Realm in the same multi-verse. From there he could just <i>Plain-Shift<\/i> or <i>Gate<\/i> himself to where he needed to go.\"<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"Normally <i>Gate<\/i> streatches out space at one point and joins it to space at another. But there's a problem with doing this. Dead Space doesn't mix with Universal Space. They're like oil and water. Put one in the other and it just beads up and sticks to itself, so there's normmaly no way to connect a conduit from Universal Space to Dead Space or visa versa. The fact that even <i>Prancibald<\/i> couldn't muster enough arcane power at once to caste a spell like <i>Gate<\/i> didn't help either.\"<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"So he needed to solve two problems. The first was to find some way to overcome the limitation imposed by the distance between Dead Space and the source of magical energy,\"<\/span> he ticks off one finger. <span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"The second was to find a way to mesh Dead Space and Universal Space together long enough to form a gate.\"<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"He found a possible solution in one of the creatures native to Dead Space. They're called sand specters. Very graceful in appearance and terribly dangerious in habit. If a sand specter found an unfortunent traveler they ravioniously devour the poor soul's time and subsequently eat their body too if they're still hungry. The fact that they're normally insubstantial makes them terribly difficult to harm, let alone kill, by mundane means. They have a number of interesting supernatural abilities.\"<\/span>\n\nHe leans a bit closer.\n\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"All of which are powered by <i>time<\/i> rather than magic.\"<\/span>","word-count":339,"index":1315,"from-alternative":"User6"},{"from":"Sophistemon","timestamp":"2007-02-16T06:51:00","value":"\"I think I see where this is going.\"\n\nSip.

As a contrast, imagine a fair sized incoporial dragon without the smarts and you're getting close to a good compairison. Capturing them is hard. Training them is pretty much impossible.\"<\/span>\n\nMaph'tey chuckles.\n\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"As the creator of the fabled Owl Bear Old Prancibald had a fair amount of experience with making bizard hybrid critters. But a simple hybrid wouldn't work here. The fact that sand specters reproduce by fragmentation helped cement that. So Pracibald did the next best thing. He captured a pair of the beasts and bound them to the soul of a yet unborn child of one of his servants, a child he had already determined to have the potential to be a magical prodigee.\"<\/span>\n\nHe grins.\n\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"I'm sure you can guess who that was.\"<\/span>","word-count":150,"index":1317,"from-alternative":"User6"},{"from":"Vyse","timestamp":"2007-02-16T07:04:00","value":"\"I'm sorry.

I'm told that my mother and most everyone else in the room died when I was born. Basically the wards to keep the sand specters under control weren't quite up to snuff and I... well... more or less slaughtered eight people before Prancibald got me, or rather us, under control.\"<\/span>\n\nHe doesn't seem to be too pleased about this part of his history.\n\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"I was raised by the servants, though everyone was pretty much terrified of me. The specters, interestingly enough, used my growing personality as a sort of catylist to develop their own sapience. Refuge is basically an amplification of everything good and noble in me. Ruin is, well, not. Despite the fact that I was able to keep them both under control pretty much as soon as I learned how to talk everyone still saw me as a dangerious monster. To be honest it's hard to blaim them.\"<\/span>\n\nMaph'tey sighs.\n\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"Prancibald taught me everything he knew about magic, combat, the world outside of Dead Space. Anything and everything I was interested in. But mostly the magic. Much to his dismay I tended to gravitate toward the psionic side of things. I think he was hoping that I would end up as another wizard. I also... aged oddly. I grew up really fast, but once I hit 'adult-hood' I pretty much stopped. It took a long time for me to get skilled enough to use the level of magical power nessicary to open up a gate.\"<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"But open it I did. Like I mentioned before the problem with trying to make a gate out of Dead Space is the fact that the two types of space don't mix, so a connection can't be made. But I was the key. I'm just as much a part of Universal Space with my human ancestory as I am a part of Dead Space with the specters that are integrated into my very essence. I served as that final bridge between spaces. Hence the name. Maph'tey means 'key' in some obscure langue Prancibald knew.\"<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"After I shunted a couple of his servants into Universal Space and back without them getting turned inside out or anything Prancibald himself stepped through and then asked me to send over his entire tower. He then told me that he didn't need my services any longer and plane-shifted himself, his tower, and his servants back to his home plane.\"<\/span>\n\nHis fists clench slightly.\n\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"Needless to say I felt like I was nothing more than a worn out tool that had been thrown in a waste bin because it wasn't needed any longer. I was frightened and alone. And I was <i>furious<\/i> that I was being treated like an object. Ruin mocking me didn't help. I lost it.\"<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"Completely.\"<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"I broke down the barriers that had been set up against my specter instincts. Those instincts warped me into the shape they were accustomed to and I proceeded to <i>devastate<\/i> the poor world that I had randomly gated to. Then I gated to <i>another<\/i> and did the same thing.\"<\/span>\n\nHis voice sounds stifeled at the moment, as if he's trying to stop himself from weeping.\n\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"I don't really remember how long I did that. Mentally I wasn't much more than a very angry, very large, and very hungry animal. All the memories I have of that rampage are all bled together in a haze. I... I really have no idea how many people I killed.\"<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"I do remember what brought me out of it, though. I had just annihilated an entire kingdom. Everything within seventy miles had been blasted flat. And while I was clawing through what was left I found a child. By some miracle he had managed to survive the scortched recage of his home, bleeding and clinging to his dead parents. He just sat there and looked at me looming over him, impossibly huge and impossibly murderious. And he pulled out his father's sword and brandished it at me. I...\"<\/span>\n\nHe sniffs, finding it hard to continue.\n\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"Something clicked in my mind. It suddenly dawned on me <i>exactly<\/i> what I was doing. I don't know how my human mind managed to fight back to the surface, but it did. I bound the instinct and forced myself into the form I'm in now. I got down on my knees in front of this child. No more than eight years old. And told him to kill me. And, trained as a squire, he did exactly that.\"<\/span>\n\nMaph'tey sighs deeply.\n\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"I don't know how long it was before I woke up again. I wasn't even on the same world when I did. Remimber when I said that specters reproduce by fragmentation? Prancibald had used that little biological oddity as a fail safe in case I died. Normally any minute piece of me that sloughs off is just as dead as a flake of skin from anything else. But should I die my soul gets shunted off to a nearby fragment and begins to grow a new body.\"<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"Apparently death was too small of a punishment for my sin...\"<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:darkgreen\">\"I knew that I couldn't right the wrongs I had commited. <i>Ever<\/i>.

Even on those rare times I did get caught, the people took pity on me and gave me some bread or spare crackers. Unfortunately, as was bound to happen, I broke into the wrong house. I was simply trying to find another day's worth of food and a ring caught my eye. The ring was just sitting in the open so I decided that it was their fault for leaving it out. I reached out to take it and our dear friend Katalia caught me. Being as spiteful as she was, she didn't want to kill me...yet, so she merely cursed me in the form of a drow for some time. I came to Town and she apparently followed me. After a few more painful meetings she decided to lift my curse and simply kill me next time she saw me, which she neglected to do in favor of you and Ishmale it seems.

A large gate rests in the front of the walls, and a sign sways in the breeze next to it. The sign reads:\n\n\n<blockquote>Those of the Psychic, Magical, or otherworldly persuasion, inquire within to join the Guild.\n\nNow searching for those that fit the requirements to be Head of Conjuration, Head of Abjuration, and Head of Psionics.\n\nEnchantments and magical training is open to the general public.<\/blockquote>\n\nUpon entering the gates, one is confronted by several buildings. Near the center, rests a large, rectangular, castle-like building made from dark grey stone. This is the Guild Hall. To the right of the Guild Hall, near the back, rests a huge building constructed from black metal and stone. This is the Item Archives, better known as the Museum. Directly behind the Guild Hall rests an extremely tall tower that seeming breaks the laws of construction and physics. The building is much wider near he top that it is at the bottom. This is the Arch-Mage's Tower. Arranged around the Guild Hall in a semi-circle are three smaller towers. The one on the furthest left is the Scrying tower. In the middle (Behind the arch-mage tower) is the Defense tower. The furthest to the right is the Teleportation tower.\n\n<u>Interior (Guild hall)<\/u>: Upon walking into the main guildhall, one would see several constructs, undead, and other creatures skittering around. The interior is constructed of fine dark wood. A desk rests in the corner, constructed of finely carved stone. A computer and several books rest atop the desk. If one were to turn right and enter the door there, one would come to a long hallway of more doorways and rooms. The mage quarters.\n\nIf one were to do the same only on the left, one would enter a room filled with spellbooks, computers, and various desks. Various mages sit at the desks, experimenting with magic or reading through a book. This is the research center.\n\nIf one were to go straight down the hallway parallel to the front door, one would come to two doors. Both doors lead to libraries, filled to the brim with various books. If one were to continue down this hallway, one would come to a stairway that leads in three different directions. If one were to go up it and turn left, you would come to several open doors and rooms. The various alchemical, necromantic, conjuration, and enchantment labs.\n\nIf one were to do the same, only going to the right, you would come to a long hallway of doors with various runes etched on the front. Such as \"Necromancy\", \"Conjuration, \"Evocation\", \"Enchantment\", etc. These are the classrooms.\n\nIf one went straight up the stairs, one would come to the entrance to the Arch-Mages tower.\n\n\nMaps:\nComing Soon!\n\nMembers:\n{table=\"head\"]<b>Member Name<\/b>\|<b>Class<\/b>\|<b>Rank<\/b>\nSaurous\|Wizard (Necromancer)\/Assasin\|Arch-Mage\/Head of Necromancy\nRex\|Wizard (Diviner)\|Head of Divination\nMauril\|Wizard (Scholomancer)\|Head of Transmutation.

Mind control\nThe power of a Demon or Devil brain is astounding. This method goes over how to gain control over a Demon or Devil (Henceforth refered to as DoD). One way is a simple <i>Dominate<\/i> spell, but this will only work on weaker minded DoDs, as showed in the first book.\nYou will die if you try that on anything remotely intelligent however.\nThus comes the necessity of an epic spell.\n<The next page is made of pure stone.>\nThis spell is <i>True Dominate<\/i> a spell I recently developed. It is quite powerful, and can be used to dominate the mind of any unsuspecting target.\nThe target has no chance to react, and instantly comes under your command for the remainder of your natural or unnatural life.\nThis does work on DoDs, I have tried it (Using a method later in this book).<\/blockquote>","word-count":176,"index":1166,"from-alternative":"User8"},{"from":"Castaras","timestamp":"2007-02-18T15:55:00","value":"Fus teleports back in and begins to try and scrub off the drawings on his door.","word-count":16,"index":1167,"from-alternative":"User17"},{"from":"Saurous","timestamp":"2007-02-18T15:59:00","value":"Saurous makes a hmming sound, and then flips over the heavy stone tablet.\n\n((I'm going to go play Oblivion now.

Binding\nThe first book has the basics on this as well, though those methods do not work on anything powerful.\nUsually binding works on the concept of bringing the DoD to this plane and keeping it here. This only works if the DoD wants to be here.\nThus a new method becomes nesaccary. Binding the DoD into your own body is an oft overlooked method. Admittedly, some of the intimidation factor of having a DoD at your side is lost, but the benefits are astounding.\nDoing this requires an incredibly powerful spell, at the end of this section. The result of this spell are: a. An increase in all physical abilities, b. An improvement in all mental abilities, c. Vast respect among most spellcasters, d. An improvement in all spellcasting powers, e. The ability to summon more DoDs, f.

The one Retriever had attacked was Geresh, who had pulled out a large blade from it's sheath. He is using it to block Retriever's blow. He pulls a second blade out, and swings it at Retriever. Retriever blocks it with one of his claws, knocking Geresh off guard. Retriever sends another claw (Retrievers have four claws) at Geresh. Geresh flips backwards impossibly gracefully, pulling his blades to his side. He lands kneeling, and moves his hand around in the air, creating a spell. Various plants come from the ground and wrap themselves around Retriever's feet. Geresh rushes towards Retriever, bringing his blades to the ready, and swings. Retriever catches Geresh in his mouth, flinging him towards a wall. Geresh catches himself, easing himself back down to the ground. Reh'san decides to play his hand, raising one of his hands. A rune appears in the air in front of Retriever's head. Retriever's head rolls around drowsily, and then Retriever falls asleep. The plants around Retriever's feet retract, pulling the floor back into it's exact position. Reh'san does a few more motions, and casts some spell.

I had entered a little village, and met an old woman who was very worried about her son. She told me how he had been a good, inquisitive, freindly and lively little child, until his father was killed by a fire elemental. It had a bad effect on her son, he became more secretive and was scared of fire. He'd often sleep outside, alone, even in the winter months. He tried to teach himself magic, as the family was too poor to get him taught, but he couldn't get far.<\/span>\n\nShe sighs as her voice begins to turn a little shakey.

His desire to learn the power of ice magic had driven him to crime. The authorities had begun to sent people to hunt him down, and she was very worried that he would be killed. In the end, I went and talked to him. I promised to teach him the magic, so long as he'd stop the attacks. He agreed. He's a good man really, and after I'd been teaching him for ten years, I could see that he never wanted to harm anyone.<\/span>\n\nShe gives another pause, and thinks.\n\n<span style=\"color:sienna\">Well, <i>almost<\/i> anyone.

He sees his sister, Crystal, fighting tentacles in a tavern. He sees two lovers embracing each other above her. He sees a crab-man die in a wreath of fire. He watches as someone reveals a badge to a woman in the police station. He sees two men step out of a pub and into the streets nearby. He conctrates, and then he sees the invisible traces of the now long gone footprints of his mark. Knowing he's already attracted too much attention, he slips into an alleyway, following the trail that only he can see.\n\nAfter a while of tracking, he arrives at a basic-looking house. He easily undoes several locks in a matter of seconds, and steps into the house. Without drawing his weapons, he seeks out his mark and steps right in front of him without the man noticing. After a few seconds of this, the man finally realizes what the shadow in front of him was, and his heart skipped about five beats, his skin turning stark-white and his blood dropping to absolute zero.\nHe stammers out, \"P-please, I-I'll give you anything! Just let me live!\"\nShadow ignores him, <span style=\"color:navy\">\"This is not an issue of money.

On foot he walks up to the guardsman on duty and gives him a friendly greeting: <span style=\"color:darkgreen\">Good evening, officer. May the Moon of Sil'varas always illuminate your path.<\/span> The man at the gate returns a blank look and motions through the gate.\n\nAs the newcomer moves on he wonders, where that greeting formular came from. At times it got difficult to separate the two sets of memory from each other. Those things which have happend in the last half year are quite precise in front of his inner eye, but unfortunately it is a real mess to point to anything that happend before then. Nonetheless, single pictures of persons and places as well as names flashed in his mind, now and then. But as easily as they appeared, as quickly they vanished into oblivion.\n\nApparently, the guard had never heard of Sil'varas and he wondered himself where that had been. A dim image of a great city hovered on the edge of his perception but then it was gone completly.\n\nShaking his head he entered the city.\n\nThe hood of his green riding cloak is cast back to reveal his long and shiny black hair.

From the outside you can see a belfry and 2 chimneys sticking out of the roof. As you come inside there is a small closet to your right and the living room to your left. The living room has nice shiny hardwood floors. There is a fireplace in the corner. Beyond that there is the dining room and the kitchen. The floors are stone. In the dining room there is a large oak table that could sit about 12 people. In the kitchen there is a large fire place almost five feet wide and four feet tall. The kitchen is a mess, there are jars of things all over the place and you have no idea how anyone could find anything in here. Past the kitchen is a small room that seems to be a bedroom. Off of the bedroom there is a bathroom. There is a stair case leading upstairs. Upstairs is split into two rooms, the master bedroom and an empty room, which Lillah has decided to turn into her practice room. There is a stool sitting in the corner, and several holes from daggers in one wall. The master bedroom has a large bed in the middle of the room and a spiral staircase leading up. This staircase leads to a large belfry. This belfry has large glass windows all around it and offers a view of the ocean and the town (not a very good view but a view none the less.) On the floor of the belfry there are several large cushions much like those in Hank\u2019s.<\/span><\/span>\n<span style=\"font-size:medium\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman\">On the outside of the house there is a new door. Above it are the masks of comedy and tragedy flanked by musical notes. If you open the door you find a red curtain hanging down in the door way. As step through the curtain you find yourself in a theatre. It has a good number of seats that look very comfortable and several balconies. The stage is fairly large. You seem to be standing on a miniature version of the stage. <\/span><\/span>\n<span style=\"font-size:medium\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman\">The stage has several trap doors leading down to lower levels. There are stairs leading down to these levels in both the wings as well. The lower levels seem to be a complex series of hallways that lead to sleeping quarters, kitchens, dressing rooms and places to just hang out. <\/span><\/span>","word-count":423,"index":0,"from-alternative":"User0"},{"from":"Kyrian","timestamp":"2007-01-28T01:22:00","value":"<span style=\"color:navy\">Staying here is fine, though we can go out if you'd like.<\/span>","word-count":13,"index":1,"from-alternative":"User1"},{"from":"McBish","timestamp":"2007-01-28T01:23:00","value":"<span style=\"color:purple\">How about I cook you a dinner?<\/span>","word-count":8,"index":2,"from-alternative":"User0"},{"from":"Kyrian","timestamp":"2007-01-28T01:27:00","value":"<span style=\"color:navy\">Now that just sounds wonderful....\n\n<span style=\"color:black\">Kyrian doesn't let her go though.<\/span>\n<\/span>","word-count":14,"index":3,"from-alternative":"User1"},{"from":"McBish","timestamp":"2007-01-28T01:28:00","value":"<span style=\"color:purple\">Well if you want me to cook you a dinner then you have to let me go.<\/span>","word-count":18,"index":4,"from-alternative":"User0"},{"from":"Kyrian","timestamp":"2007-01-28T01:34:00","value":"Kyrian chuckles before he kisses Lillah on the cheek and lets go.","word-count":12,"index":5,"from-alternative":"User1"},{"from":"McBish","timestamp":"2007-01-28T01:37:00","value":"Lillah kisses him and gets up and goes downstairs into the kitchen.","word-count":12,"index":6,"from-alternative":"User0"},{"from":"Kyrian","timestamp":"2007-01-28T01:39:00","value":"Kyrian follows her downstairs.","word-count":4,"index":7,"from-alternative":"User1"},{"from":"McBish","timestamp":"2007-01-28T01:41:00","value":"Lillah pulls out several foodstuffs and starts cooking.","word-count":8,"index":8,"from-alternative":"User0"},{"from":"Kyrian","timestamp":"2007-01-28T01:42:00","value":"As Lillah cooks, Kyrian begins to set the table.

A large fox carved from white alabaster gleams at each side of the gate. As you pass between the foxes and through the gate, you feel the presence of the goddess. Gentle and caring, but mischievous and lighthearted, you are never quite certain what will happen.\n\nPast the exquisite formal gardens, you finally step into the pagoda itself. There, at the end of chamber is a raised dais. There rests a statue of a beautiful werefox woman, flanked by two snow-white celestial foxes. Offerings of rice and incense stand before the statue.\n\nIn a niche off to the right side of the door sits a Fox-Cola vending machine. Next to the coin slot, the sign reads \"10 cp\";.\n\nTo the left side of the door is a magic mirror.

It is a small house of only one floor and three rooms sitting forbindingly on a hill. The lawn is overrun by grass, but a crumbled stone pathway makes a clear path to the door. The windows have no glass, but instead have wodden shutters firmly shut to keep out unwanted geusts. At first glance you figure that it is still abandond, and grumble to yourself about how someone should get rid of it, but then you notice a small shaft of light coming from inside. Realizing that noone has lived here in ages, at first you wonder if a ghost has taken up resadince there.\n\nInside, it is in somwhat better repair. At lest, the furniture is. A large box that held the furniture upon delivery is now empty, and the furniture is all in there proper places. There are three diffrent rooms: A bedroom\/living room is the first one upon entering, sporting a bed that has been dragged to a corner that recently played bed to a cat as well as an elf, the cat is gone, a portrait of an Elf dueling a Drow hanging above were the bed should have been, a dresser, a mirror and a coat hook.\n\nAnother door leads to a kitchen, complete with a fire\/cooking pit, a sink and pump. The glaive that once hung over the fireplace is gone as well.\n\nThe other room is a privy with a pump, a bucket and a hole in the ground.\n\n((Note: I will probably be updating this from time to time as Moon Called makes this a better place to live, so... yeah. If you want to knock on the door, just make sure I'm online and send me a PM. Kinda like a door bell. It doesn't have to be detailed, just a simple \"I'm knocking on the door\" or \"Oy! Moon Called!

It is barely furnished, with only the bare essentels: a blanket on the floor for sleeping, doors in every propper spot, a basic privy consisting of a hole in the ground and MoonCalled's backpack, containing things she collected on her journeys. A protriat of an Elf fighting a Drow hangs above the entrance to the house, wich leads into the living room\/bedroom. A door across from that leads to the kitchen, and another door leads to her privy. A stack of books are pilled up in the living room's corner, and a black cat is sleeping on the blanket. Heavy locks are sported on every way out.\n\nAs the beams of moonlight send pools of light into the house, Moon Called's sobbing slowley quiets. She falls onto her knees, with a hand placed on the wall to help her ballence. <i>Fight it,<\/i> she tells herself despertaly, <i>Don't let it happen!<\/i>\n\nBut her struggles are no use. Moon Called's hybread status has a priece, not unlike that of a werewolf's. The full moon shows her true decent, her black hair is now pure white, and her pale skin is black as the night that surrounds her. When the full moon shines, she changes, her body, her mind even, takes on the shape and thought of her Drowish decent.\n\n\"Finaly...\" the newly made Drow pants. \"Finaly a full moon.\" She stands, and walks over to the door. She tries to open it, but finds that it is firmly locked.\n\nThe Drow screams in bloodlust, furiously pounding on the door, trieing to escape. So many, just out of reach. If only she could break out, to just have a taste of that precouse ruby liquid!\n\nBut the more rational Moon Called had already thought of this, and had locked the doors. Only the touch of an Elf would open them, not that of a Drow.\n\nAs the night passed, the shouts eventualy fadded away. When the sun finaly returned, Moon Called had returned to her normal state. Panting on the floor, she looks around, glad her house didn't have much in it to destroy.\n\nFortunitly, this only happend once a month, only when the full moon was shining.\n\nFor now, she was safe.\n\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\nLater, Moon Called is feeling better.

One stands by the door as the other two quickly scan the place. The pair nods to the one by the door, who pokes his head out and says something to someone. A balding, older man wearing an expensive black suit enters with a much younger man with blond hair, who is dressed more casually. They walk over to the booth where the large, armed men are waiting. As they sit, the brutes find their way to a nearby table. The guard at the door remains standing there.\n\n<span style=\"color:red\">Carl, you really need to be better prepared. I'd hate for something to happen to you.<\/span> The older man says.\n\n<span style=\"color:teal\">I know, Pop, I know.<\/span> Carl sighs. <span style=\"color:teal\">I just don't like to carry those things.<\/span>\n<span style=\"color:red\">Well, one of these days I'm not going to be able to watch after you.<\/span> The older man orders a pitcher of beer. The two men wait patiently for it to arrive. When it does the older man gives the waitress a generous tip. They sit sipping at their drinks.\n\n----------------------\n\nA young woman carrying a shotgun bursts in the door, followed by a panting man wearing a suit almost exactly like the older man's who entered earlier. The 3 guards' hand shoot to their pistols, but relax once they recognize who it is. The one by the door smiles, he's seen this scene before.\n\nAmanda,not even out of breath, walks over to her father and kisses him once on each cheek. Before sitting down, she smacks her younger brother in the head. <span style=\"color:magenta\">We bought a warehouse, Daddy. Number 47.<\/span> She takes the seat next to Carl.\n\nAntonio scowls at his daughter for abusing Carl. <span style=\"color:red\">I wish you wouldn't do that all the time. And good.<\/span> He turns to his oldest, who is panting by the door doubled over. <span style=\"color:red\">Come on, Marco. Have a seat. <\/span>\n\nMarco hobbles over to the table. Before he sits, he takes his father's hand and kisses the golden ring on it. <span style=\"color:orange\">...She...whoo...<\/span> He sits next to his father and exhales slowly. <span style=\"color:orange\"> She almost shot the guy we bought the place off of.

[OOC]	Free Form Roleplaying	25	306	13,870	29	[{"from":"AmberVael","timestamp":"2007-01-27T23:25:00","value":"Tired of watching massive titan characters battle it out with each other?\nTired of seeing all the petty rulings that would never come up in a smaller game?\nWell look no further! I present to you the\n <span style=\"font-size:medium\"><b>TEAM vs. MONSTER ARENA BATTLES!<\/b>\n<span style=\"font-size:small\">\nThis Arena Match concept is brought to you by the minds of Lykan and Vael (though mostly Lykan, I just kinda tossed in a few minor ideas).\nSo here is how this will work:\n\nCharacter Entry:\nThose wishing to enter a character will follow these rules to create and submit a character.\n\n<details>\n<summary>Spoiler<\/summary>\n\n<b>1) <\/b>Only characters who are in Town can join. You can create a new character for this, but please don't just have them join town temporarily for the fight. This is the Town Arena, not just an Arena.\n\n<b>2) <\/b>All characters will use the standard point buy method listed in the DMG. You have 34 points. For those who don't know how point buy works, use this table:\n{table]Ability Score\|Point Cost\n8\|0\n9\|1\n10\|2\n11\|3\n12\|4\n13\|5\n14\|6\n15\|8\n16\|10\n17\|13\n18\|16[\/table]<b>3) <\/b>All characters will have 72,000 XP (halfway between 12th and 13th level). LA reduction rules may be used.\n\n<b>4) <\/b>All characters will have starting gold of 88,000 GP.\n\n<b>5) <\/b>All HP\/HD rolls are maximized.\n\n<b>6) <\/b>You may use <i>any<\/i> race, creature, etc. that is normally allowed for play. (So any race with listed LA is fair game).\n<\/details>\n\n\nArena Combat Rules:\nNote that rules from the OOC Arena Thread, and the Arena Championship may not apply here. For example, instant death spells are allowed, and ability scores may entirely be drained.\n\nOnce enough characters have been submitted, the three judges (Lykan, Douglas, and myself) will separate them into equal and 'classic' groups. (Like a normal adventuring party).\n\n<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:medium\"><span style=\"font-size:small\">The goal of this arena battle is to get through the most groups of monsters with your group PCs. You are working cooperatively this time. Once your group has been made, you will start off fighting against a certain set of monsters (which is determinedly randomly, but are of equal CR). After that group of monsters has been defeated, there will be a one round pause before another (harder) group of monsters will be sent in. This will continue until you have gotten through all the groups or until the entire party is dead.\n\nBetween each group of monsters a character has the choice to rest 8 hours (regaining and repreparing your spells, as well as the HP you normally would get). However, you can only do this once in the entire battle.\nThe exception to this rest rule is that once you reach the gap between the 6th and 7th set of monsters you automatically get one free rest at that time. This also occurs between sets 9 and 10.<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:medium\"><span style=\"font-size:small\"> (If you are so lucky as to make it that far!)\nEach character decides when they get to rest individually. The entire party does not have to rest all at once.\n\nAs of the moment we are still working on maps and how those will be integrated into this, but the standard map will not be used, and there is a possibility of switching out arenas between monster sets.\n\nOnce every group has gone through the arena, the following awards will be given to the winners:\n<b>\nSurivivor Award\n<\/b>(This award is given to the single character who got to the highest set of monsters, and then survived the most amount of rounds in that set)\n<b>\nSlayer Award\n<\/b>(This award is given to the single character who killed the most monsters)\n\n<b>Team Effort Award\n<\/b>(This award is given to the group of characters who make it to the highest set of monsters with two or more characters still surviving)\n\n<b>Judge's Pick\n<\/b>(Each judge can award one character for whatever they desire, whether it be for most ingenious, best built character, best strategy, most lucky, etc. These are not set awards, but decided on after the arena is entirely over)\n\n<b>???\n<\/b>(Hey, there is one award floating out there which is entirely a mystery... maybe you'll get it...)\n\n<b>And more!\n<\/b>(We are still thinking of a few awards, and they will be coming soon!)\n\nAnd... I think thats it. If you have questions, comments, or character submissions, please put them in this thread.\n <\/span><\/span>","word-count":727,"index":0,"from-alternative":"User0"},{"from":"McBish","timestamp":"2007-01-27T23:35:00","value":"Sounds fun.

They all have something in common, a badge. This badge certifies that they are members of a squad developed and devoted to doing just one thing, stopping crime. They are the Town Police.\n\nAs you walk into the foyer you can see a large doorway on the right in what you're sure is an outside wall. Looking through it you can see a set of metal stairs leading down to some more cells. A sign above the doorway says <b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.giantitp.com\/forums\/showthread.php?t=17677\">Cell Block Extension.<\/a> <\/b>A sign over the front desk reads \"Amulets of Trueseeing in Operation.

The suspect will be in jail for a period of time according to the crime, after which the criminal will be released back into town. Due to rights for a speedy trial, the criminal will be held at max for 48 hours in the station if we can't settle it in court.\nWhen arresting, one must first ask the criminal to come quietly, and then if they do not they may subdue them, using lethal force at their discretion. Criminals wanted for murder, battery, or assault should expect lethal force to be used against them.\n\n{table=\"head\"]<b>The Crime<\/b>\|<b>The Punishment<\/b>\|<b>Other<\/b>\nMurder\|36 hours\|No bail, resurrection fine, one week parole and weapon restriction.\nBattery\|24+ hours\|2,000gp bail and healing fine, one week parole and 3 day weapon restriction\nAssault\|18 hours\|1,000gp bail, 3 day parole and weapon restriction\nResisting Arrest\|6 hours\|no bail, 3 day parole and weapon restriction\nKidnapping\|24 hours\|2,000gp +(500 * days kidnapped) as fine, week parole.\nPoisoning\|24 hours\|2,000gp, week parole, healing expenses\nTorture\|48 hours\|No bail, 500 to 3,000 fine and week parole\nTheft\/Robbery\|12 to 24 hours\|500 bail + gold equal to stolen items\nVandalism\|12 hours\|Pay for repairs, one day of community service\nForgery\|6 hours\|500gp\nDesecration\|6 hours \|500gp, one day of community service to temple\nJay walking\|No hours\|50gp\nDisturbing the Peace\|6 hours\|150gp\nBar Brawls\|6 hours\|300gp plus paying for your share of the damages\nStreaking\|6 hours\|150gp\nContempt of Court\|6 hours\|No bail\nTrespassing\|6 hours\|100gp[\/table]\n\n<b>Parole and Weapon Restriction\n<\/b>Parole is served simply by being scryed on by the police for the duration of your parole. Weapon restriction is accomplished by wearing a bracelet provided by the OmniShop. This bracelet prevents you from using any aggressive magic or drawing weapons ((Aggressive magic includes harmful or unlawful uses of any magic)) The bracelet also prevents you from attempting to harm the bracelet directly or indirectly. These weapon restricting bracelets are made of adamantine and are unable to be taken off normally by anyone other than a police officer.\n\n<b> Internal Discipline\n<\/b>Officers who are discovered to be neglectful or willfully derelict in their duty will be subject to disciplinary action. Infractions last for 1 month, and on officer who commits two infractions within a month will have his\/her badge taken away, his\/her powers as an officer revoked, and be asked to leave the force.\n<\/details>\n\n<b> To Report A Crime <\/b>\n<details>\n<summary>Spoiler<\/summary>\nPlease LINK to the thread where the crime was committed.

A police officer will receive weekly pay of 100gp, weapons (of your choice), weapon repair, and riot gear, a desk at the station, and room and board in the station barracks should they want to.\nSenior Officers receive pay of 150gp each week, have authority over all normal officers, may deputize citizens and swear in new officers, and handle police station political matters should the captain be off duty.\nCaptains recieve pay of 200gp each week and have authority over all officers, may deputize citizens and swear in new officers, and handle police station political matters.\n\nThe force is divided into two departments, the Patrol and the Wardens.\nThe Patrol consist of those who are paid for detective work, town patrol duty, and a quick response team to back up citizens in reported fights.\nThe Wardens are made up of the people who jail and guard criminals, take care of legal and diplomatic matters, and scry on those people serving parole.\nEach department has a separate Captain and a Senior Officer.\n\nThe badges given to the police act as badges of Trueseeing, and allow the police officer to contact any other badge-wearer with telepathy. They can either be pinned on, or aligned with the body's magnetic field to simply hold onto the wearer.\nTo be sworn in, you must first pass an alignment test. We accept no officers with Chaotic or Evil alignments.

Devils are highly law abiding creatures, as such they wish to be treated with honor and will return the favor, when you appear in front of a Devil of high rank, you can usually notice them by the larger size or different equipment, make a polite bow and if it's a devil, make a slight nod with your head towards them. They appreciate this greatly and will in turn treat you well, also when one of them asks you to do something you aren't sure you want to do, make sure you thank them for their kind gesture, but you have to refuse, no need to lie. Though I suggest you try some of the things here like Liquid Agony, they sound bad, but it really isn't all that bad, just ask me if you want to know what something is.

The whole building is indestructible as the magical protections are very similar, if not the same, as the one's protecting Trog's. The building is also warded to prevent entry to anyone who are not allowed in by the owners, and it is immune to any types of scrying.\n\nOn the ground floor there is a quite large living room, which also acts as a dining room. There's several couches and chairs around the room, a table that looks like it can sit two people cosily and also more than ten people comfortably, and several other things dotted around the place including a quite impressive fire place. Attached to the living room is a quite simple and well organised kitchen that can prepare just about any type of food. All the standard utensils, pots\/pans and things for cooking are in well organised spaces. There is some food stuff around, but not much.\n\nOn the second floor there's a large master bedroom including a bed that can fit three people (or a person with wings quite comfortably), a desk and several drawers and a wardrobe for clothes. There's also a guest bedroom, much the same attired as the master bedroom except it's smaller and it only has a double bed, and seperate to both rooms there's a restroom.\n\nOn the third floor there are three doors, one leads to a room for Alena that can be soundproofed and is for her instuments and a space to practice in if she wants. Another leads to a room for Alex, inside of the room at the moment is pretty much nothing, excepting the fact that the magical protections are quite noticeable as magical sigils and runes are all over the walls and ceiling. It is similar to the summoning chamber in the temple of Inari. The third door leads up some stairs to the roof.\n\nThe roof is flat topped, perfect for flight. At one end there's a covered sheltered area with chairs and cushions in it overlooking the view to the beach and the sea.","word-count":356,"index":0,"from-alternative":"User0"},{"from":"Alex Shipmaster","timestamp":"2007-02-08T03:00:00","value":"Alex walks up to the front of a disused building that is situated between Trog's Tavern and the beach, it has remained empty for a good long time in the town.
