You two take your sexting elsewhere. . . not in this thread. Actually, you being back makes things easier. But you're right, I don't -need- you around. As long as we're on the same page. Anyway, is there anything you need me to do? I'm up for anything. I'll PM you when I need your input.

I, for one, am excited and anxiously awaiting. I started and stopped a few times, before I finally settled into a direction I was a little more comfortable with. It was coming off uber-serious, and that's not really what I had in mind. Really have to be in a spcefic frame of mind to write uber-serious, and I just don't get there often enough. So I've chosen to write it in a way that's a little closer to my standard mindset. Hopefully that will speed up future installations.

Everything you put out is quality material; I don't mind waiting as long as it takes for sheer written brilliance.

Fascinating...
So, I tried reading the intro page but I'm still a little confused.
We describe to you a character we'd want you to add into a story you're writing?

More or less. You describe a character you'd like to play, and I adapt it as I deem appropriate to fit the setting.

What genre is this, then?

Steampunk Fantasy, I think, Shingala.

Fantasy, other than that, I'm pretty sure Zovo adapts it to the story, so one part of the world might be steampunk but then it may turn to high fantasy.

Fantasy, other than that, I'm pretty sure Zovo adapts it to the story, so one part of the world might be steampunk but then it may turn to high fantasy. It's divided up essntially by geography and culture. . . The North Western areas are sort of dirty-fantasy, nitty gritty low magic druidism animal sacrifice oracles omens barbarians tribal warfare etc. South East of that lies the Kingdom of Silias; they are more magic oriented (throwing fireballs and that warcrafty stuff) but politically pretty similar. This is a result their location relative to the Folly when it occured and where the Dust settled. The Broken lands are a huge region West of Silias and South of the Feudal North. It, along with Kwanland to the West (South of Silias) are heavily industrialized very Steampunk-ish. Railroads, guns, that sort of thing. The nation of Kwanland recently rebelled against the Queen of the Brokenlands on philosophical grounds and due to disagreements of the use of "Archanics," that is, the combination of machinery and the arcane. The nations remain in conflict to date as Kwanland contains the port citys on the Bay of Bantar. West of Kwanland is the small city-state of Sephro with it's "Flux-Oligarchy." Sephro's cetralized location on the continent makes it a hub for trade of both goods and culture. It's a pretty diverse place. Southwest of of Sephro lies the Grove, the Old Kingdom of the Second Scion, long deserted. Most folks believe it to be haunted, or even cursed. Northeast of that is the massive Kingdom of Rowland, the Last Kingdom of Scion. Rowland is basically a High Fantasy paradise, fairies, elves, dragons, etc. The Worldspine mountains to its west largely blocked the waves of destruction caused by the Folly, as a result it stands as a living testament to what most folks believe the world looked like before the Mortal Scion did whatever the hell it was he did.

....It's a parody of AWR, isn't it?

Yes.
...
For the record, I am totally not the villain of this story.
Just sayin'. Not like I've ever lied, right?
