(I just love writing I can 'see' like a movie in my head.) But you surprised me with the second dagger. You have NO idea how much I appreciate that. Keep 'em coming! -P

I really hope you find the time and will to continue this! I hate Readus Interruptus! I remember the first time I read Ender's Game, I liked Ender so much and didn't want to leave him, I reread it the same night... Peredhil reads that and realizes he's revealed some of his best and oldest friends are book characters. Umm, I'm not THAT strange... really! -P

It moves very quickly (not normally something I respond to), but the quickened pace of your words reflects the atmosphere, and hence is enjoyed. I like the names of your characters and places thus far (just something I take note of).

It's a great story, I'm lovin' it! Anyway's. If I may, I'm going to play Silverblade. He's supposed to be a semi-funny character who hasn't 'anything special' about him. He's just an adventurous fighter who gets by solely on his luck of the fates and his passion (though not always skill ) with his short sword. When in doubt for his char. desc. just think of him as a 'wanna-be' knight. I'll try and write details about him into my posts, but if you have questions, just ask. A good job. I'm pumped.

I hope you didn't mind me jumping in on the stpry there without notice, but I thought as long as the opportunity was presenting itself I might as well jump on it. On a side note, I've never done one of these threads before, so bear with me please. For the only players (Damienn, Gyrfalcon, and Justin) there isn't a lot of difficulty to writing for Bhurin. He's normally confident but very calm. He has the voice of a diplomat (almost soothing). On the battle field he uses a massive blade (two handed) and normally uses his appearance to off set his opponents (which, on a side note, I should mention that Bhurin is not an angel, nor does he have divine origins. He is just part of a mortal [though long lived] race of people with wings.) Bhurin also knows some magic, though by no means powerful or extremely effective. Finally, I just wanted to ask if Damienn would flesh out his character somewhat (more along the lines of his class or mannerisms. I don't want to write him ineffectively ) Righty then, let's have some fun... Signed-

His origins begin in ancient Egypt, somewhat. He is Rameses II except that A) He won his battles and shored up his power through reckless necromancy and Ticked off Anubis, who chased him down to do only-he-knows what until Mr. Satan (of Archmage pantheon fame) save dhim with an open portal to Terra (he saw a good pawn and took him essentially), where he found the mage wars. He went at the mage wars until he was beaten nearly into oblivion, saw himself as worhtless, and started to drink to forget. Finally, decades later, he began to make true friends, and they helped turn him around. For the most part. He is still very angry at himself and somewhat hotheaded as a result of all this, but usually very calm and collected. Also as a direct result of his alcoholism and subsequent recovery, he is fiercely loyal to all his friends, has a very wry sense of humor, and has become a great master of Illusion magic. He also has a (healthy) taste for good brandy and can wield a sword to some good effect. Oddest quirk: No one has seen him change clothes, ever except for the fallen angel costume he donned for filming Gyrfalcon: The Movie. He is always wearing the same (or identical, no-one has ever delved that far) blue robe and cow leather sandals as well as his sword. He has a very basic view of morality (not quite black and white, but definite 'lawful' leanings out of a 'chaotic' view- he views evil as easily being used for good: well-placed lies, well-placed kills, etc.) Oz is at his least cautious when his home or his friends are threatened. And unless you want more specifics, I'll just leave it at he's been tagging along this entire time, and will 'pop up' when he feels the need great. This will be fun.

Jheric considered this, and felt the first bubbling of excitement... a chance to use his magic for a purpose... and *anything* is better then going through that gods-cursed forest again..." "Fight." He said, voice quavering only a little in excitement and a little fear." Coincidentally, that's Jheric's view, and feel free to use it.
