When it comes to posting, a basic heading is expected of everyone, it doesn't have to be uniformed with everyone else, but if there are any 'environment' details that don't belong in your post (and aren't already explained by the board that said post is being posted inside of).<br><br>Example:<br><br><span class="bbc_u">thread</span>: Anders (other)<br><br><span class="bbc_u"><em>Caridal</em></span><br>An abandoned concrete structure between the tower and street camps<br>Early Afternoon<br>(Tag here if applicable) <br><br><br>If there are any questions or comments about The Eighth Winter, this would now be the place to ask, any new-comers that find this page, and bare interest themselve should be directed to the original interest thread below.

				check out our character thread for a comprehensive look at the People inhabiting the Ji-Tru, The Sages, and the Slayers... I'm sure as time goes on, I'll add more to these list-like rosters. But for now, it'll do. Also added a new monster to the encyclopedia, check the demon post below the index... Finally I might post tonight... definitely tomorrow

				<strong>Also updating the encyclopedia with the following</strong><br><br>I have been posting with an odd way to keep time, (i.e. Scorpios sun - Gemini moon). I must explain.<br><br>Firstly, I don't expect anyone else to post like this unless they deem it necessary. However, it is important for everyone to know why I've been doing this. In AW (The Age Without Time), no body uses a standard calendar of any time. So, for the most part, they only know if the sun's up or if the sun's down. More intelligent people would be able to predict the patterns, seasons, months, star positions, and lunar cycles. Thiw sould be why the game is called "The Eighth Winter" and not <em> 'The Winter of 723 AW' </em><br><br>As a note, 723 is not the official year that we're playing it. It is the AW, not even the Sages have cared to remember what year it is.<br><br>With extension... The Sages, and anyone else able to pass knowledge of the ancients down through time would be able to recall old ways. So learned Sages know what day of the year it is. Along with the month names, come the knowledge of the original astrological signs, which ended up being more useful since the waves of time proved to be odd, and at times unpredictable.<br><br>If anyone doesn't know the Astrological symbols, I'll take advantage of that and show you how 'The Sages' use these star shapes as tools. (The following is a little self serving)<br><br>When the sun is in this sign, apply it to the weather of the world, when the moon is in this sign, apply it to the weather of the heart (soul, inner being, etc.)<br><br><span class="bbc_u">Order</span>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <span class="bbc_u">Sign</span>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <span class="bbc_u">affects</span><br>&nbsp;one&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Aries&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Planting seeds and business must be accomplished without effort, focus on balance.<br>&nbsp;Two&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Taurus&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Water and use patience to extend prior accomplishments. <br>Three&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Gemini&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Expect odd events, and heavy winds. Weather will be unpredictable.<br>&nbsp;Four&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Cancer&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;With viscious extension, the weather will brighten, extra water will be needed<br>&nbsp;Five&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Leo&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; It is essential to use this time for growth. The days are long, and vampires are weak. Do not bother with details<br>&nbsp;Six&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Virgo&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The days will begin to shorten. Use this time for harvest. Any longer and it is too late.<br>Seven&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Libra&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Celebrate and eat. But beware, demons will be doing the same thing.<br>&nbsp;Eight&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Scorpio&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Not often do men become demon. Not often do women turn vial.

				Karasu, when you embed the pic, use the width and/or height options. You don't have to use them both. I usually just use width. It will look summin like the following code:<br><br><div class="codeheader">Code: <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="return smfSelectText(this);" class="codeoperation">[Select]</a></div><pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0;"><code class="bbc_code"> [img width=200 height=200]insert pic img here[/img] </code></pre><br>You can even use padding to make sure the writing doesn't collide with the picture like this:<br><br><div class="codeheader">Code: <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="return smfSelectText(this);" class="codeoperation">[Select]</a></div><pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0;"><code class="bbc_code"> [img width=200 height=200 padding=15]insert pic img here[/img] </code></pre>

				So, it occurred to me recently that there was a largely important section of information that I've left out up until now. There is magic in this game, and i've always said that it's so expansive, that it doesn't matter what anyone comes up with, it will probably fit. Right, well, I was so concerned with Vampires, and Sages, and bad guys, and creating characters to support the game that i forget to describe how magic is actually performed in the game.<br><br>So, The Jikundi Truun have two training regiments: One is called Black Arts. the other is called Ritual Magic<br><br>These are the two kinds of magic that we're dealing with here. The two variety's assist each other, but they exist in large part by themselves as well. And in order to be truly powerful it is important to train in both of these aspects, or ascertain some kind of gift for one, the other, or both.<br><br>Black Arts/ Dark Arts/ Hand Magic - These powers are manifested on command. The caster can prepare spells in advance, and devastate their obstacles. This includes fire throwing, wards or shields, telekinesis, aura projection or body energy blasts, lightening bolts, etc. One can make their power stronger by using Ritual magic, but the actual act of most battle ready magics are restricted to this variety. The real strength of the magic is entirely dependent on the user(s). If multiple witches use the same spell together, their force will be stronger, naturally. Again, ritual magic and practice in the dark arts may increase the strength of an individual witch. But, it is not guaranteed, most are born with the gifts that they receive. <br><br>Ritual Magic - This form of magic is performed in private places so that no one can disturb the process. These spells take a long time to produce, and often aren't involved with directly harming anything. this includes summoning of demons, enchanting space with protective shields, cursing some one or some thing, altering ones own appearance or personality, focusing power into people or instruments of magic, portal creation, etc. In general, the more the merrier when it comes to ritual magic: Four candles works, but why not four hundred. One person can do it, but seven people chanting in the corner would create a large force of energy to use. If you need to burn a picture, a match can do the job, but a bon fire will intensify the spell. Further, people without any natural ability with the dark arts, can use ritual magic without any trouble, and even introduce the magic into the body. Ritual magic is the gateway magic.<br><br>And another brief note that means a great deal about the magic: there is pretty much no exception, magic is dark energy being used to manifest human desire. It is evil, if one can use it with dignity and honor, they are held in high regard. this is partially why the Truun house is so well respected.<br><br>I'll be updating a few different pages with this information. As for all new world rules, nothing is expected to change in accordance with this information. It is only meant to help inform the other players.

				I can see how you would feel that way if you are the only one interacting with any of the other players.<br><br>Maybe we should try to get the different PCs to the same place somehow.<br><br>Also if there is a specific direction you would like any of our characters to go it would be helpful if you let us know what you have in mind.

				This event that Narianna just narrated for us will help the game in every way. After i read those posts, i got so many ideas, all of the ideas!<br><br>You make a great point Elf, I reply to everyone, huh. I knew this would happen, i was counting on it. I'm mostly referring to the absence of Chaosfox and Carnvorousbunny. Each of them seemed really excited, and then they vanished. I had to NPC their characters, which gave me two more to worry about.<br><br>My favorite narrative was Caridal's, and now she's totally alone with Issa as my new NPC. <br><br>Alas, I always imagined a bigger draw with the game. I'm a patient young man, and I love this story, so I'll write it no matter what. But it could have so many writers in it! all of the writers in it!

				I'm taking a small breather just to get my muse back for this game. I'm going to conclude a couple of unfinished narratives: Issa &amp; Cari - Lionelle and a Demon. I'm sort of anal, once something is written in the forum, I have to include it in the rest of the tale, so. I know what i want to do. I just need to write it out. I will have adopted two new characters, but they will be tied to two of my original characters now as secondaries (kind of like assistants). <br><br>Issa will be a diplomat for Cari, and Lionell is going to end up riding along with Bell, (yes, Karasu, that will affect Suichin and Anna's raport, but don't worry, I've got all kinds of plans for you, no matter what you have you make your rogue decide.<br><br>expect these posts within the next week. (catching some more interest as well, i disguised the interest thread as a magic school game).<br><br>HEY LOOK!!<br><br><br><br><strong>The Gate Camp</strong><br>(http://i39.tinypic.com/mvkpig.jpg)<br>1- The Gate<br>2- Main Street<br>3- Sage House 205 (The Dead Arrow)<br>4- Anders' Guard Barracks 1<br>5- Anders' Guard Barracks 2<br>6- Rings' Boarding house (cheap bed)<br>7- General Mechanic (electronic repairs / prototypes)<br>8- General store (daily needs, some food)<br>9- Green Grocer (store fore several farms and gardens in area)<br>10- Anders' Guard Jailhouse (evil people are kept here, no demons)<br>11- The Wharf ('restaurants' - 'gift shops' - some general needs - otherwise useless merchant wares)<br>12- The River ferry 1<br>13- The River ferry 2<br>14- Anders' Guard Barracks 3<br>15- Center City Grocery (everything the heart desires, massive crowds)<br>16- Men and Women's clothing (designed with style in mind, many other places in town to buy leathers)<br>17- Carpentry and Upholstery <br>18- Deviating Mechanic (all prototype, typically large items. Has constructed one automobile)<br>19- Cawl Fornis' Hotel (gigantic building, upscale rooms, expensive)<br>20- Anders' Guard Prison (dangerous men are kept here and some demons)<br><br><strong>The Tower Camp</strong><br>(http://i40.tinypic.com/350rr0i.jpg)<br>1- The Fallen Tower (ground zero. A mysterious force has destroyed this Tower)<br>2- Anna Bell Coriander's home<br>3- The Farms (functions as a free green grocer)<br>4- Anders' Guard Barracks 4<br>5- Sage House 409 <br>6- Ander's Guard Armory<br><br><strong>The Wall Camp</strong><br>(http://i41.tinypic.com/a23qzp.jpg)<br>1- Childrens' homes (anyone under the age of fifteen is encouraged to stay in this proximity<br>2- Anders' Guard watch tower 1<br>3- Anders' Guard watch tower 2<br>4- General Market 1 (mostly what one would need, much shortage in this camp though)<br>5- Anders' Guard Barracks 6<br>6- General Market 2 ( same description as the other G. Market)<br>7- The Wall<br><br><strong>The Street Camp</strong><br>(http://i41.tinypic.com/elqn5.jpg)<br>1- The Wares (clothing, accessorie, entertainment, and toys can be purchased here)<br>2- The Stores (food, and most general needs can be purchased here)<br>3- The Tavern (the only real tavern in the street camp, this gets a lot of business)<br>4- The Brothel (works with the tavern. The smallest in Anders, but the only one worth coming to)<br>5- The Northern Hole (the demon jail. High security. actually serves as a ward to other demons from the NE)<br><br><br>NEW MAPS! i put them in the interest thread, this OOC post and respectively where they belong on the IC boards. These maps were designed to open up the imaginative world of Anders. So please envision any other kind of shoppe or curio that you can and we can probably make room for it.<br><br>Oh, and as a rule, when going into a shop, there will be an NPC inside waiting for you, so let me know if you plan on interacting with any of these stores and then i can draw the character out for you, if no one requests them, I'm sure I'll mkae the bio's eventually.... when these NPC's are needed it will not matter to me who plays them.

				Excusing myself from all players. Sorry about my lack of interest lately. I became exhausted after doing five or six solo's in one group game.

				don't worry Karasu, Bell and Suichin have yet to come back in for part two of the story. You don't have to feel like you've got to reply to it or anything.
