((For anyone curious, here's the LFG thread http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=83564.0 (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=83564.0) ))<br/><br/><br/>((General setting is modern, but with fantasy stuff still going on.))<br/><br/>The castle was up on a hill away from the town.  It was old and disused, the age of castles having passed for the modern McMansion.  Still, inheriting such a home is too good an opportunity to pass up.  It was an old fashioned stone and mortar dwelling in a world where magic never really went out of practice, but technology continued to advance.  So it was that the wizard drove a car home that day.<br/><br/>The door opened with a slow creek.  The wizard was home.  Jerald took off his cloak, a light dusting of feathers falling to the ground as he did so.  It had been a long day.  The negotiations with the griffin roost had not gone so well.  And while no tar was involved, Jerald certainly did get feathered.<br/><br/>The day wasn't over yet though.  There were usually issues to be dealt with when he got back.  So after dusting off his wide brimmed hat he started to walk the halls.  He wore his typical day wear.  White shirt, leather vest, and trousers.  He didn't go for the ostentatious wizard robes...  at least not often.
