• 22:07, 27 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Faphinae's Fanfare (Created page with "The Memorial Gardens District, afternoon. It's an oddly gray day in Alexandria. Daeus is hidden from the world by the auspice of silver-shrouding clouds, which means it's not quite so hot and perilous compared to other days in an Alexandrian summer. That being said, the Memorial Gardens are a refreshing green at all times of the year, so people seem to be here more today compared to the shores of the Tornmawr. "What a nice day for a picnic," Corey says with excitement...")
• 01:36, 25 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page He Says (Part 4) (Created page with "Thoth understands this feeling. Frustration. How powerful must a mage be, to have taken hold of a Genie? How powerful must his hold be on her? Its wings twitter in irritation as it steps further away from the housing. "This one suggests we prepare. At night, when the common-folk are asleep. When we do not risk accidental hurt. Yes?" The bird chirps to its allies. When did it take the lead on this? Since when could or should anyone trust Thoth to take the lead on anythin...")
• 20:59, 24 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page The Price of Fish (Created page with "It's just past noon, Variday. It's the beginning of summer, and the sun is shining down brilliantly. Here at the guard post leading into the city of Alexandria at least. There's a lot of activity at the gates. A line sprawling into forever. Other places it might be raining, but here, for now... The sun shines. The crowd slows even more as a cart in the middle hits a rut too hard and the axel snaps in half. It's one of the carts leaving the city, but it lurches into the...")
• 01:59, 24 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page One Thousand Cranes (Created page with "The door to the room that Corey shares with Karasu is closed, but as he approaches it, he can hear the sounds of a conversation inside. Caution slows a little, and he hears Karasu talking to Wuya. "I tell you, it is a perfect plan. He will not expect a gift fully four months before the occasion." "There is a reason for that." Wuya responds saucily. "You are meant to give it on-time." Karasu makes a small amused noise. "I want it to be a surprise birthday gift Wuya. Tha...")
• 21:23, 23 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page A Warning Not A Gift (Created page with "The park is almost suspiciously empty given the weekend date and the silence is pervasive. There's no birds. Not even insects chirp now and again, as if every living thing has gone into hiding. The lone soul sits upon a bench in the district, a bag on his lap as if he is there to feed the birds that are nowhere to be found. He is somewhat tall for a man of xian heritage, his black hair lightly touched here and there with gray and a singular short puff of white right in...")
• 01:08, 23 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Best Boy (Created page with "Vadran village is only a short ride (or even walk) beyond Alexandria's gates. The Adventurer's Guild posting (as well as word around the village and surroundings) requests interested parties travel here to meet a man named Karl for the task. The village, itself, is a quaint rural mini-community; small, yet with some perks at having a metropolitan area so nearby. In such a place, everyone knows most everyone else who lives or frequents the village, so seeking Karl is not...")
• 02:44, 20 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Ashes on the Ground (Created page with "Desert sand has gone gray with a layer of slippery ash. It's pouring upwards in gusts of wind, carried from the lava flows which you can catch a glimpse of in the near distance. In most places the lava has cooled to hot black stone, but in others it still moves lazily forth in fresh waves of searing heat. Occasionally the stone breaks to reveal more lava underneath, or a wave of sand that crystalizes into glass under the heat. The location on the edge of the Desolation...")
• 22:20, 19 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page A Warriors Instinct (Created page with "There's a small clearing in the woods that Aragos leads Gramarye to. It's the sort of place where one might set up a picnic, and indeed Aragos has a picnic basket in one hand. The truth is that he hasn't told Gramarye at all what to expect, and he's half nervous that she'll walk off when he explains. He sets the basket down on the edge of the clearing and coughs once. "So. You've been going off on all sorts of missions, and that's good. Helping people I mean. Very good."...")
• 02:52, 19 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page He Says (Part 3) (Created page with " GAME: Sabina rolls diplomacy: (11)+20: 31 GAME: Thoth rolls Diplomacy: (1)+0: 1 (EPIC FAIL) The rest is restful, at least to some extent. There is a rouge wandering stuffed dog in the house after all. Not that the dog seems dangerous. It might be considered disquieting however. Lexi's mother Loriline is welcoming but distant. She is clearly uncomfortable with strangers in the house. She explains later in private to Sabina that its her husband's absence that causes the...")
• 02:58, 18 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page When you Wish Upon a Fish (Created page with "There's an old man standing before you, two of them in fact though one looks more finely dressed with a lute held carefully in his hands and an excited expression on his face. He's got gray hair but age hasn't stolen much of his handsome features, accentuated by his bright yellow and gold outfit. He looks nothing so much as a fancy canary. The other man is a bit older and more decrepit looking but very determined. He wears the garb of a sailor and seems otherwise to be f...")
• 02:07, 17 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page To Find a Mourner (Part 9) (Created page with "When we last left our heroes: "You heard her." Auranar says, her dark eyes gleaming as magic power surges through her body. "FOREVER." The magic courses to her hand and she feels it darken for the first time. Not light building up but darkness. The darkness of a finger in a box. The darkness of the words that Verna had whispered in the night. The darkness of fear, anger, and sorrow. "FEEL HER PAIN." The spell surges inside her and she curses the woman with all her migh...")
• 21:32, 15 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Five Nightmares (Part 2) (Created page with " GAME: Telamon rolls knowledge/arcana: (12)+21: 33 GAME: Schara rolls 1d20+9: (18)+9: 27 As the group makes its farewells to the man and his dogs, Telamon frowns, walking back into the dining hall. "Some healing drafts use a rose petal infusion for their base, but..." He pauses, considering. "Maybe I'm looking at this backwards. Gearsmasher's a wizard, he'd need material components for spells -- and the common material component for sleep is rose petals." He hmphs. "Da...")
• 03:40, 15 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Five Nightmares (Created page with "The Castle on the Edge of Waking The realm of sleep and dreams is not normally one for clarity. Although it can be a source of inspiration, such flashes of insight are usually half-formed, gradually carved into focus by the lucid, awakened mind. But sometimes, lucidity pervades in sleep, and one can walk strange roads. In this case, though, awareness settles on the group that they are in an elaborate dining hall, vaulted with gray stone that gleams as though polished....")
• 02:29, 8 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Break the Mold (Created page with "The call is put out for adventurers of any stripe to come take a look at some bodies gathered in the temple of Vardama. The suspect is one of the mages who escaped recently, but they need verification of identity and someone to eventually hunt down the suspect. Not to mention anything else that a member of the guild might be capable of thinking of in relation to the case that an ordinary Vardaman might not think of. Which is how you've all been gathered in the temple do...")
• 01:34, 5 June 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page He Says (Part 2) (Created page with " GAME: Sabina rolls spellcraft: (14)+14: 28 The elder frowns at Sabina but smiles at Thoth. "Sure, try a pie. Even one like you should be able to appreciate it!" He motions for the innkeeper to pull out a slice for Thoth and the innkeeper does so. "You guys planning to stay the night? This here's a right good inn!" Thoth stares down at the pie being offered to it. It already analyzed the pie. There is nothing special about the pie, as far as it can tell. Not that it's...")
• 02:33, 31 May 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page A Stealthy Inquest (Created page with "This is probably not a good idea, but Harshad's set on it. The more he hears about this guy, the less he likes, and he figures stealing his stuff is a good way to discourage him from trying to eat the locals. Besides, he rather likes Denorah and the spells needed to restore her weren't cheap. So Harshad dropped a silver coin in the offering bowl at the Temple of Vaire, murmuring a prayer to her aspect as Lady Luck, before setting out with Choler in tow. They've been ca...")
• 02:06, 29 May 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page He Says (Created page with "It's a lovely day to be traveling through the forest near Alexandria. You haven't actually entered the woods, but rather have been following a trail along the outside edge of it. The forest trees loom large due to foresting in the area, and more stumps of trees mark the landscape. You're quickly approaching the town where your backup is supposed to be waiting for you. Knowing the adventurers guild though... that could be or could not be just as easily. Given that the com...")
• 03:28, 27 May 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page To Find a Mourner (Part 7) (Created page with "So they've assembled an army to keep them out. That doesn't impress Telamon much. His star-shot eyes glitter with resolve, as he begins rapidly incanting a simple ward against fire. Of course, 'simple' for him is still quite powerful, as he puts a fingertip on Simony's head. A silvery pattern appears there, before fading. "There. If they opt for fire, this should tamp down the worst of it." He takes a deep breath, before invoking a similar spell for himself. "When we op...")
• 23:38, 18 May 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Honey Do (Created page with "Another job for the guild, another day in the sun. It's a beautiful day to be outdoors at least. The sort of day that most would be making a nice iced tea and perhaps a fruit salad to enjoy. Instead the group is on the road and nearly to the small village of Honeydew - so named for the melon which they grow in excess. A sleepy little village from which the last three merchants have not returned. Thus, with suspicions afoot the guild is called in to investigate. Just in...")
• 19:52, 7 May 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page A Happy Dance (Created page with "The sky is blue without a single cloud to obscure its beauty. The sunlght offers itself freely, but a cool breeze keeps the world from growing too warm for comfort. It had taken some doing to extricate himself from Cor'ethil's presence without a well-placed lie, but Karasu had persevered in the end by saying he was running an errand for Wuya. Which in the end was true enough. It had taken all of five minutes to locate the house of the Archmage Telamon, but somewhat long...")
• 01:39, 4 May 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Trade Off (Created page with "In this district, most shoppes are probably permanent and of a tier to more match their clientele. If there are mobile carts or stalls around, they might also be designed with their target audience in mind. As for Tlanexhuani's stall, it is... well, none of these things. He does not own a cart, nor even the pieces to make a stall: he'd never considered such a thing much before, and even in only the simplest terms when he did. So his stall consists of several crates and...")
• 21:58, 22 April 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Birds of another Feather (Created page with "The spring air is clean and clear, with the fine rays of noon-time sunshine dappling down onto the world below. This is a day that Corey would call a blessing, for it's the exact kind of day that he'd have spent in the woods, enjoying the bounty of nature in his surveys of the land. The paladin is, as a result, in very good spirits as he walks in Alexandria. Life is something to be savored, and despite everything... He will not let the darkness of recent events cast a sh...")
• 21:55, 21 April 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Whilst You Lay Dreaming (Created page with "The Temple of Vardama keeps healers on staff that are quite thorough, enough to the point that, once Corey has been healed, the man is at least urged to stay for a period of observation. The Warden of Gilead declines, however, and he vacates the chamber, entering the foyer to start asking around with the guards to inquire about Karasu's appearance. "Excuse me," he says, inquiring with one posted not far from the doorway where he'd entered into the wider Temple. "Have yo...")
• 20:18, 20 April 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Tears of Death (Created page with "It's a cold and bitter day for the beginning of spring. Perhaps the winter is trying to cling to the world, but time slips inevitably forward. Cold rain pours from thick grey clouds which obscure the heavens in turn. Wind howls as it is driven down the narrow streets between the market district and elsewhere. All in all the weather seems determined to make this a terrible day, but then... there are other reasons for that as well. A merchant down the street with a haul o...")
• 02:33, 19 April 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page To Find a Mourner (Part 3) (Created page with " GAME: Telamon casts Overland Flight.

• 22:03, 14 April 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Three Assassins (Created page with "There's a light rain falling from the sky, but it's inconsistent, and by the time that Karasu and Corey reach the gardens the rain has stopped almost entirely. Karasu seems largely unconcerned with the blooms offered up by the various plants, but he stays close to Corey, and his dark eyes roam the gardens with a somewhat cautious air nonetheless. "It may be aesthetically pleasing to the eye, but it is not a place that sets me at ease." Corey seems quite happy to be in t...")
• 03:16, 9 April 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Frozen Veins (Created page with "The borders of the Greatwood, Llyranost, late afternoon. The village of Ortheiad has a problem that can be boiled down to two puncture wounds on the neck on one body and three missing people, none of which have yet turned up. The only thing that the three missing people and the one found with puncture wounds have in common is that they're village residents--it's actually rather odd that there _aren't_ more connections between the four individuals, considering the size o...")
• 03:56, 7 March 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Body Guard (Created page with "The request on the Adventurer's Guild request board had been very clear, if not long-winded or terribly good on offering an explanation. The request was for a 'subtle' suite of body-guards for a local nobleman by the name of Augustus Alexandros. A well known individual of some wealth and fame. So the request for a body guard (or two, or three) isn't that surprising. Though most lords don't usually mind if their bodyguards are noticed or not. Either way, you have your or...")
• 03:42, 1 March 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Make Cookies Not War (Created page with "There's a rapid, incessant, and loud knocking on the door belonging to Telamon and Cor'lana's home. Auranar would normally never be so rude, but she is beyond caring about something like social niceties. She knocks on the door, almost bruising her knuckles on the wood with her intent. Mentally her mind is half-frantic and driven to thoughtlessness. She's not sure if it's only been a few seconds or if she's been doing this for ten minutes. Maybe she should try breaking th...")
• 04:14, 29 February 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Ten Year Step (Created page with "Today is not exactly a beautiful day. No, the snow has faded into mere cold and damp. The sky is gray without the promise of any blue that the early days of spring might offer. No, the end of winter is holding onto the world, but it has lost its luster and beauty, giving way to only a faint sense of discontent. Soon there will be hope of warmth and cool rains to wash away this bitterness but today is not that day. The streets of Alexandria are largely empty, the weather...")
• 20:58, 23 February 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Expect the Unexpected (Created page with ""Another grey day.", the Goblin says with a huff. With breakfast already inhaled and digesting, Simony has settled in with a few tasks. Today, it is translating an ancient treatise on trading relations, from Khazdul to tradespeak, and comparing it to a similar work by the same author, but in Sylvan. The scratching of her pen fills the room as she concentrates, only occasionally pausing to glance at the open door to her cell in the Monastery at the Spire. "Dwarves sure...")
• 21:54, 20 February 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Dead Men (Created page with "The Temple of Vardama: Crypts The body lies on a slab of stone, a piece of white cloth has been drawn over the corpse for the sake of human modesty and respect for the dead. Thus far, the priests have been unable to determine a cause of death for the guard whom had spoken to Harkashan in the dungeons before utter chaos ensued. The deceased's belongings are arrayed on a nearby table. A guard uniform for the Arcanists Guild. A small amount of money yet unclaimed by the n...")
• 22:51, 16 February 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Summoning Aid (Created page with "The Goblin is a little unhappy with the snow, but at least the wind has died down. Her haggard and drawn expression from previous days has gone, replaced by a more focused and driven one. "I'd really prefer to do this indoors, in a nice library or another place of knowledge, to influence the choice of ally. But since we cannot risk things in the city, and hah, the protective wards... which I really do hope are extant still, given that the Arcanist's dungeon has lost the...")
• 22:46, 13 February 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Sound Mind (Created page with "The dungeons which are attached to the Arcanist's Guild, are far from a pleasant experience. After being divested of all weapons and magical equipment, everyone is allowed downstairs, but the guards hadn't exactly been well-pleased by the fact that Aelwyn has decided to bring so many visitors to Jacob. Which is why there is a guard leading you down. One that has already explained that he has no intention of leaving you all alone with Jacob. There's simply too many thing...")
• 03:18, 2 January 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page What is in a Name (Created page with "As everyone files out of the room, leaving Tlanexhuani and Khepri alone with the mysterious Ilenzi. The mage waits a long moment, long enough for both to become uncomfortably aware of the feeling of hollowness that refuses to leave the chest. "It seems that we have some time to ourselves." The mage moves and waves a hand to conjure a steaming pot of tea and enough cups for the group. "Would either of you like some tea?" Khepri turns its head to stare at Ilenzi blankly,...")
• 01:27, 1 January 2024 Aftershock talk contribs created page Suspicion without Evidence (Created page with "The job posting was a simple one, a request about a possible missing person. The meeting with the person who had posted the request is today. Slowly you all file into a meeting room at the Adventures Guild, and awaiting you is a guild secretary named Giles standing behind a young woman seated at a table with chairs enough for you all. The young woman is obviously human, her hair cut short in a sort of pixy style and she looks... very young. Probably no more than sixteen...")
• 20:42, 27 December 2023 Aftershock talk contribs created page Removing a Thorn (Created page with "It's snowing in Bryn Myridorn. The capital city is a beautiful and vibrant place in the winter, and while Yule is fresh in the minds of many, with its decorations still adorning the buildings, it's an odd contrast to what's storming on Seldan's mind at the moment. All it took was one letter sent hastily in Synonie's hand to bring him here to the Temple of Daeus. The building is one that Seldan would know well. There's a number of acolytes inside, cleaning or tending to...")
• 23:48, 22 December 2023 Aftershock talk contribs created page An Effort At Peace (Created page with "Through darkened streets and alleyways, Aragos makes his way through Alexandria. He does not stop, or falter in his path. Only slowing when someone makes to cross his path. His purple eyes are set and determined, yet also traced over with the edge of hopelessness. The paladin of Vardama passes several bars. Their open doors and tempting warmness do not sway him tonight. He passes them by one and all. Eventually he makes his way not to the river, or to some forlorn corne...")
• 07:12, 21 December 2023 Aftershock talk contribs created page Padaryn a Padaryn (Created page with "The Temple District Plaza, early afternoon. Earlier that morning, word had arrived from Seldan that his grandmother was again accepting visitors. He would like to go as soon as they may, and his family, while not noble, expect neat and presentable attire. It's now early afternoon, and a cold wind under a wan blue sky whisks a few dead leaves along the cobblestones. A few get caught in the legs of one of the benches near the fountain, rustling and trembling in the force...")
• 03:28, 20 December 2023 Aftershock talk contribs created page Sweet Memory (Created page with "It has taken Thoth quite a bit to come to terms with this idea of what it has been feeling. It has held onto the beautiful orb for a while now, knowing it may very well contain its own memories. Or perhaps it will contain someone else's memories. Yet, in truth, it is afraid of what it might find out. That maybe, its own memories aren't accurate. It has investigated these orbs before. Divination magic. No altering. No corruption or evil. So then why has it been afraid to...")
• 00:23, 20 December 2023 Aftershock talk contribs created page Who Let The Dogs Out (Created page with "The warehouse district is a place that sees no rest, even in the winter months when so many other ways of life slow down for the turn of the year. The woman who had agreed to help Lheo and Theo find the warehouse where Zero had been taken leads them through alleyway and alleyway until she stops and points at a door with a painted sign hanging above it: a pony with a heart in its center. "That's the Friendly Pony Company," the woman says. "Now, the men inside are about a...")

For Seldan and Telamon, the words are in the voice of a young woman. For Verna, the words are said in an ageless, genderless voice. For Zeke, the words are said in the voice of a man.

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

After Aelwyn had put out a few feelers to look into what had happened to Jacob (and the other members of the Crimson Circus), he might well have been surprised to learn that Jacob had somehow landed himself not in the normal jail which Alexandria had - and where the rest of the Crimson Circus troupe had found themselves in the aftermath of the day that they had performed...

"Should you require any reagents or other amenities for spellcasting," Cosette says, "I would suggest you enter the last room in which you have not been yet. That would be... Master Padaryn's study.

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

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

One of the breaches in the wall has been put back together, sealed with goblin muscle, sweat, and a little divine assistance. Two of the brothers from the monastery come back out now, toting a crate of light ballista bolts. "Nothing with cold iron or silver," one says a bit ruefully. "Then again, it IS a museum piece..."
