Santhil breathed deeply, slowly in the dark room. Out in the night, a stronger wind was brewing, carrying a promise of rain. A chilling draft pulled persistently under the heavy curtains, cooling the room but unable to permeate the thick layer of covers sheltering the bed. She smiled contently, savo...

Over time, with finding out more and more of Morathi's background, my interest in her motives and thinking is edging closely towards the clinical. What Morathi is after is pretty much anyone's guess. She seems to prefer the role of kingmaker over king/queen, and doesn't shy away from overt connectio...

I'm about ready to give Drainial the story to write. XD I not as good as putting ideas to paper and fleshing them out, generally why my stories end up as roleplays. Reading the works of other authors usually makes my gaze rise and my courage plummet, feeling I have a long, long way to go. I get the...

As it turned out, the council chamber was the perfect location to host the party that Santhil and her commanders had been meaning to have. Excellent acoustics let the musicians’ varied songs and melodies reach all across the large room, allowing them a comfortable distance from the calm commotion of...

I believe the stories you're looking for are the "First-Born" series by Mornar Shethurith. You should find them in the History of the Druchii forum.

A bit late, but hopefully still useful.

So I was wondering why the signature images in my profile were going Jimmy Hoffa on me; images that I've dumped on fileden.com. When I go to their website, I get a message that it's "down for maintenance" and instantly see the anti-virus pop up. Maintenance. Right. Just a heads-up to anyon...

Crimson red. Blood of fallen angels red. Glow in the dark and creep people out red.

Seriously, though, good question. With dark, I'm thinking black or very dark grey.

No idea about Aenarion's hairdo.

(I'm trying to stay on about a monthly schedule in posting. This can vary a little with the length of the pieces and difficulties I hit writing them, but monthly seems to be working out well. And a shout-out to SleekDD's piece ; can you spot the reference? Little more flattering to a writer than se...

Queens of the Stone Age - No One knows

Almost every Warhammer player I know listens to Metal in one of its many shades and flavours.

Devil May Cry 4 - Time Has Come

Yeah, I got distracted while posting.

Wow. It's been... forever.

Welcome back.

I've voted Kinslayer, because I know he will put up a good fight and emerge victorious anyway. Like sending a good gladiator into the arena because he'll give a good show, and I need a good show with my dinner.

Panem et circenses!

“You’d think,” Santhil started while she squeezed a steady stream of water from her hair, “that they had made their point by now.” Yalasmina chuckled briefly and took the clip/comb from her hair that had kept it all in place during the frantic battle. “If any point was made, Santhil, it is that some...

The grammar is not really relaxed as applied laxly. That's no one's fault but our own. It is difficult to learn, remember, and consistently apply rules if you are a distinct minority to even bother; much like mathematics are difficult if you never learn the basic principles. It doesn't help that &qu...

The "one player per group"-rule is something of etiquette. The thought is to first check with players already in the pool to see whether they would like to join (or leave them a comment on why you felt they wouldn't fit in). This keeps popular players from inadvertently hogging all the spo...

Lahnia let her fingertips stroke Santhil’s desk while she slowly circled around it. A number of closed files where on the far left corner. Some blank papers were closely to the right. Ink, quill, and pencils were ahead of her. Lahnia smiled gently. It showed her sister was a ‘lefty’. Santhil had ask...

Gents, may I leave you a general warning that the rules for spamming, off-topic comments, and spelling care are active on our forums as well? The occasional OT or mistake is fine, but please mind your content. This is not a chat channel.

Aww... he's cute. Congratulations.

And good to have you back.

Then hy is he still in the armybook when he was killed several editions ago..? I mean.. the other characters that was killed aren't here.. right..? Zombie Kouran! I wouldn't put much stock in what Tyrion claims to have done. His personal historians tend to gravitate heavily towards creative writing...

I have nothing but good to say about my local one-man-store blackshirt in Ghent. He's been doing a sterling job at creating and maintaining a community since around October last year when the store openen. I always had a good impression of the Lonely Mountain and later the Red Dragon; I haven't act...

I've looked around a little, and found a reference on getting Java to run on IE9 . In case you don't have Java installed, Microsoft suggests getting it from java.com which, incidentally, is the first time in 12 years on the job I've heard of that site. NB: You should be able to check whether you hav...

The chat window uses Java, of which you need a runtime environment (JRE) installed. Most installations come with a JRE pre-configured for you.

What browser are you using?

Patience, grasshopper. Druchii.net, in comparison to other sites, can be slow in replies to a topic, though I prefer to call her 'thoughtful'. If you're anxious to get going, consider reading through previous and running RPG groups , see whose styles you find appealing, and send them a message . You...

Anyone else reminded of this? Ah... good times, good times. Thanks for jumpstarting the ol' memory. First of all, Norelle, welcome to our little corner of the Internet. If you're looking for stories about Malekith in possibly fictional/alternate settings, Mornar Shethurith wrote several chapters of...

“What do you think?” “Is this an armour or a corset?” “Would a corset protect you against a blade, Santhil?” “Would this?” Bing! “Hey! Knock that off!” Santhil gave Yalasmina the evil eye while she warily kept the blade in sight. Her witch sister, in her opinion, had too wide an amused grin on her l...

(Fashionably late, as always. And a bit earlier than planned just to spite LordAnubis. Always hear your fans! Thanks for the kind comments!) The priestess was clearly ill at ease around Santhil. She was cautious to take a seat when offered one, and eyed Santhil’s body language warily. Santhil, upon...
