Kalile · 08-15-2003, 12:19 AM

Alright! What kind of two handed sword?

Estel13 · 08-15-2003, 05:08 PM

The grip is black with silver wire embedded into it. The blade is made of mythril, with the finest gold engraving the entire length of the blade. It was given to me by the dwarves.

How's that, then?

Kalile · 08-15-2003, 08:03 PM

I mean is it a broadsword (a broad, flat blade used for hacking), a claymore (the really huge swords), a falchion (a two handed scimitar, basically, with the curved blade), or what?

Cool description!

Estel13 · 08-17-2003, 06:59 PM

Broadsword, I suppose, but it's light enough that I can be very fast when I need to be! When are we going to start?

Kalile · 08-18-2003, 12:09 AM

When the Lady of the Golden Wood comes, I suppose.

The last sane person · 08-18-2003, 12:19 AM

Ack, she well nigh abandoned the thing. I wouldnt wonder if she looses this too.

Kalile · 08-18-2003, 12:35 AM

Then I will officially adopt it!
Henceforth I shall be the protector and benefactor of this fragile rpg.

Okay, I'll start!

"Treasure! Treasure in the desert! And the one who finds it gets to keep it all, but for the one thing that the Lord wants!"
The rumor ran through the city like wildfire. The Lord Dyrell was recruiting a party of able bodied men and women to hunt for the legendary treasure of the shifting sands. He promised all of the treasure to the ones who found it, except for a certain jewel, apparently of little value.
Many stepped up to volunteer their services, but fewer than one might think. Many were afraid of the desert, for strange things roamed and people sometimes ventured out, never to return. That didn't happen often, however, so some were willing to take the risk.

Ooc: I'm thinking deserts of the Southwest, with lots of interesting mountains and rocks and plants, caves and animals. Not a boring expanse of sand, or there would be no point!

Silanta was walking down the street in[I get to name the city, YAY!] Lapailing[La-pie-ling]. She noticed a bunch of people crowding around a sign. She walked through the crowd, which parted immedietly. <My reputation must preceed me....>"This sounds very interesting, a quest for riches, but we must leave one jewl for the king, sounds suspicious, but.... oh well, I'll sign up." She signed an important looking document that said,"By order of the almighty Lord Dyrell, any who sign this document are forever bound to help in finding the treasure." It was signed Lord Dyrell.

Lefira had spent the night in a small tavern in the city of Lapailing. She had been wandering through the wilderness for many months when she finally saw a city that was unknown to her. So she decided to go and explore it a little before continuing her never ending journey through the wild nature. For many years she had been wandering without a reason, just because she liked it. She liked the wilderness, its dangers and wonders and the idea that in the morning she never knows where she will be in the evening, what has happened during that day or whether she is still alive.

But there was something strange about this city. Every time Lefira decided to leave, something made her to stay. Maybe it was the city itself, but something was keeping her in it. She had been here two weeks already and started missing the wilderness. She was not a city girl and she wanted to leave but something held her back.

Finally she understood that if something really wants her to stay then maybe she was destined to stay here.

It was a beautiful sunny day as she walked in the streets of Lapailing. Suddenly she stopped, something had made her stop and she saw what it was. Just in front of her was a writing on a sing. The rays of the sun made the letters shine for they had been written in gold. Lefira knew at the second that this was the reason why she had been stopped from leaving the city, that this was her destiny.

She quickly read through the message about the quest for the Lost Caverns of Gold and without thinking or hesitating she signed the document that was there under the message. This was her destiny and she was not afraid.

Legoles · 08-18-2003, 12:20 PM

Silanta walked down the street to see if anyone else had signed the contract. The sign came in veiw, and she saw a woman signing her name. After she was done she turned and looked at the advancing figure.

Gulio, Strength of Many · 08-18-2003, 01:39 PM

"Yep, a whole mountian of treasure just waiting to be found," the barkeep said.

"And how much, may I ask, will be left for the finders when Lord Dryell goes through it." Rorin asked skeptically.

"All of it, save one worthelss gem," the barkeeper replied. How worthless, I wonder Rorin thought. He paid the barkeeper and headed out to where the contract was.

Aewionen · 08-18-2003, 02:11 PM

Aewionen finished signing the document for the lost Caverns of Gold but something made her uneasy. She had heard about a gem that might be found there as well but that was to be for Lord Dryell. What sort of gem I wonder. Oh well, here I go again. Why am I so suspicious? Aewionen turned to see a dwarf (Rorin) coming towards the sign. "Singing up to search for the lost Caverns of Gold as well?"

elixir · 08-18-2003, 02:58 PM

Lefira stood silently. She needed to think what she had just done. Quest for the Lost Caverns of Gold - it sounded like fun. Wandering through the wilderness and deserts, too bad she can't do it all by herself. Lefira had been alone for a long time and she had got used to it. But at least she can leave this stupid city now. Gold, she didn't want the gold, not even one piece of it, she just wanted the adventure.

Gulio, Strength of Many · 08-18-2003, 03:08 PM

"Signing up to find the lost caverns of gold as well?" a young girl asked Rorin. "Yes, I am," Rorin replied, signing his name on the piece of paper. "I am Rorin, who might you be?"

Legoles · 08-18-2003, 05:16 PM

sorry

elixir · 08-18-2003, 06:38 PM

Lefira looked at others who had also signed the document. "They seem to be nice," she said to herself, "though I'd better travel alone. On the other hand I would probably get killed if I travelled alone for most people tend to think that it's very dangerous. And I'm sure it is." She smiled to herself. Danger was her middle name. A by-stander would have said that she is trying to kill herself by running into the greatest danger. Lefira was not trying to kill herself, it was just that kind of life she liked. And she did not fear death. She did not fear anything, or at least she though so.

Legoles · 08-18-2003, 08:32 PM

"Not all of them are nice, take me for example."

Estel13 · 08-18-2003, 09:33 PM

I lurked in the mouth of an alley, near the sign. I had watched all of the others sign on, and was considering doing so myself. My last quest didn't turn out so well, I reminded myself. "Well, perhaps I can redeem myself by finding these Lost Caverns." I said quietly. I stepped forward boldly, and signed my name: ~Freya~
