Boaz Posted August 1, 2004 Report Posted August 1, 2004 Born of a persons idle brain, Origins written by another(Rydia/Minta/Rosemary) Always questioning the world around him, almost as much as himself. Zoinks!
Mynx Posted August 1, 2004 Report Posted August 1, 2004 Graceful in his landings, although he's Reputed to show off just a tad You have captured my heart Please take care of it though Happily I go through my life with you On my paw sits a symbol of your love Never from you will I part
cryptomancer Posted August 1, 2004 Report Posted August 1, 2004 Calm, cool, controlled, but Really quite a flirt. You can see in his words, his is a Pure romantic heart. Covered by a Tough Façade. Skilled fighter, skilled talker, Or was that just the ego, you decide. More than he lets on, enjoys the depth he has, And tries to see it in others. Not known for shyness, bold and very Confident, but in his approach cautious, Experimenting with the reactions, before Revealing his true form. Most wonderful beauty, feline form You’re the truest friend I ever found. Naturally gifted, talented, and graceful. ‘Xtraordinarily compassionate cat. Gifted fighter, great friend, Rather flamboyant flyer You can tell in his landings Power and poise, Hindered only by lack applause. Open to fun Not easily outdone.
Peredhil Posted August 1, 2004 Author Report Posted August 1, 2004 Laughs happily Does Salinye NEED the five geld? She maxed out at ten early and delightfully. I think it's wonderful when people work together, but only the poster will get the geld - and only the poster's integrity can share the credit.
Zadown Posted August 1, 2004 Report Posted August 1, 2004 (edited) Tall and thin warrior Hewing through planar soldiers Engraved with a history of scars Death capers in his wake Reaping the rich harvest of Pain Eternal life ending At his touch Myriad angels falling like snow Endless streams of blood Running over his armor * * * Vagabond of the Paths Archer and swordsman Lord of forests Dreamer's old apprentice Addicted to shinies Rue to any who disrespects the ears! * * * Edited to add a bonus poem: Zillion brothers All different yet same Dreamed shards Of a godslayer Waning to Nothing Edited August 1, 2004 by Zadown
Zadown Posted August 1, 2004 Report Posted August 1, 2004 Oh, and Salinye's Gwai-poem was, indeed, perfect!
Tanuchan Posted August 1, 2004 Report Posted August 1, 2004 (edited) For fun, a couple of Haiku-like ones... but I had to shorten one of them Yearning for knowledge Unaware of the shadows In library writes *** Guarding the forest Yet aware of the Castle Redemptio he wields Edited August 1, 2004 by Tanuchan
Tanuchan Posted August 1, 2004 Report Posted August 1, 2004 (edited) Mage-bunny of acknowledged skill Raising his paws he chants a spell "..." Big carrots appear, floating around him Unnervingly circling, twirling, and spinning Never minding the delighted applauses Nonchalantly he keeps the flying ballet Yes - carrot-magic is always good fun.

Edited August 2, 2004 by Gryphon
Gyrfalcon Posted August 4, 2004 Report Posted August 4, 2004 Thank you Yui-chan for the poem about Daryl, it captures the fuzzy little menace perfectly. Thank you also to Salinye and Tanuchan. for your poem (or in Tanuchan's case, Haiku)
Katzaniel Posted August 4, 2004 Report Posted August 4, 2004 To answer the challenge: Trio of forms masking A brave soul. Never blindly following, but Understanding well. Curious about the world, Having doubts of her clan's beliefs, Abandoned outdated thinking to become New and dedicated citizen of the Pen. I might come and write the prerequisite self-poem at some point.
Katzaniel Posted August 4, 2004 Report Posted August 4, 2004 (edited) Okay, I've got one. Killing all Attackers of The Pen, Zeroing in on danger, Anihilates threats to her home Never tolerates evil, Incises and removes, Ever keeping us safe, but Longing for more. Edited August 4, 2004 by Katzaniel
Wyvern Posted August 4, 2004 Report Posted August 4, 2004 Whenever there's geld to be found You best believe he'll be around. Very greedy, sparking schemes Ended all with broken dreams. Really quite the lustful type Never telling wrong from right. Terrible schemer Heretic of lost value Endlessly plotting. Like a thief in the night he'll come to sell Insane products he'll claim are swell Zany contraptions, pointless gimmicks And campaigns that'll stretch their limits. Rarely do his products work Don't buy them from him, he's a jerk. Tenacious in his ways He lacks any sense of morals. Advancing plans throughout his days Trying to avoid quarrels. Tongue thin and forked Responds with sleazy hisses Intrigued by hitting the bullseye Enticed despite his misses. Dares ever more to try and try again To gain geld and affection when Others are rained with kisses. Sly might describe his ways as well Tenacious and corrupt as Hell Ever thoughtful of himself And never casting any spells Lest showing off for geld. You can scowl and turn your head Or silence him and claim he's dead. Under your curse he'll carry on Respects few words for long. Gross and evil are his tastes Even enjoys toxic waste Lessens every Office space Doesn't recycle, builds up waste. Born a small schemer Under an Almost Dragon To rise to "loser." Forever indebted to those around him And never able to pay them back Instead he attempts to astound them Lends projects, poems, freestyle raps Ever hopeful they'll accept him Doubtful as he sets a trap. Many consider lizards heartless Insatiable in selfish greed Secretly plotting behind backs Even feeding off of needs Really, lizards ain't that bad And aren't only evil seeds But Wyvern hides it pretty well Losing all to plotting speed Yet coming in the greatest time of need.
Tanuchan Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Wow, Wyvern! *claps enthusiastically*And some more, for fun... using shortened names... Old powerful kingZealous of the Pen, his wardYarns tales of wonder***Terror comes with himA vampire searching his foeMortals flee in fear***Wandering in dreams,Yearns for success in his schemes.Visions of riches.
Valdar and Astralis Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Note: Not to be counted, since it dosn't quite fit | Hard exoskeleton | Concealing sweetness in ` ,The sugar construct.
Yui-chan Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Ah, so many good character poems. This is really enjoyable. Thanks, everyone! And thank you for the idea, Master Peredhil. Yours, ~Yui
MinimondoT Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 thought I would try my hand at this <sheepish grin> though I know I'm not even close to some of the ones here. you guys are awsome Many don't know If only they did Not one word but many Inside she has hid. Many her poems On paper unwritten Now lost as Dust On the winds of Time.
Ayshela Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 ahhhhh welcome, Mini.. i've lost all too many that way too. *hugs*
Tanuchan Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 A bit late for Carnival... but I've been working on this one for some time, it would be a shame not posting ** Listening to tales Always with a smile, Dedicated and easy-going Yet strict when required. Cafe-owner and magess, Elven blood mixed to human's, Laughter she nurtures Expertly chasing off Sadness and gloom. Crises she deals with Rarely rising her voice Unless her anger is awaken: Storming then her words come. A lover of cats, Deftly manages her staff Energetically and full of ideas Running the Manor of Tongues. **
Salinye Posted March 17, 2005 Report Posted March 17, 2005 I know this thread is old, but I got a wild hair! Z is a hard letter to start a poem with And a person like Zadown is hard to sum up! Definitely a unique and wonderful person Often bringing smiles to others when needed While keeping his thoughts carefully guarded No one knows him, unless he wishes them to. (The next is AKA Tamaranis) Truly a bastard, no feeling within His heart. Days of emotion Ended when the paladin died. Truth be told, I can’t help but Attempt a belief that deep inside Many layers down, that good man, Neglected, but ever in slumber is Entwined within your soul Destined to awaken once again.
