Okay, considering that I just had to give dTest an update too, and it's now icy blue, and considering the recent update at LotD, maybe it would be best for everyone to just say what they think. Besides, it ups your post count anyway.

Code of Conduct « Result #2 on May 29, 2004, 11:10pm »
Anyone breaking Rule 1 will be given a chance to defend him/herself or be banned. I am not nearly as strict with the other rules, but that does NOT mean you shouldn't follow them! If you recieve too many warnings in a certain period of time, you will be given the same chance to defend your actions, or else be banned. Just use common sense and you'll be fine.
Rule 1
Each member shall be conservative and cautious of the use of slurs, and anything and everything of a similar manner, against members and non-members. No offensive remarks about anyone's ethnicity, age, gender, religion, or anything else of that nature will be tolerated.
Rule 2
Each member shall show respect and dignity to everyone, member or non-member. No matter how much you dread another person, you must treat them with respect and dignity.
Rule 3
Each member shall be conservative and cautious of the use of profanity and other coarse language. (I am not very strict on this one, especially in the Humor forum, but you should still use common sense.)
Rule 4
Each member shall avoid creating threads and posts in the improper forum. Please use common sense when determining which forum is appropriate for your post.
Rule 5
Each member shall avoid creating unnecessary extra threads for the same roleplay in order to avoid clutter and confusion.
Rule 6
Each member shall be cautious of "spamming" the board. This means that everyone should avoid advertising anything (unless asked for), posting anything twice in a row, or posting in excessive amounts in a row (such as using five posts when you really only needed one).
I'd also like to request that you not make all of your text glowing and shadowed. You can use them, just don't overuse them please.
If you're happy, and you know it, and you're old, If you're happy, and you know it, and you're old, If you're happy, and you know it and you've really got to show it, if you're happy and you know it, THEN STOP USING SO MUCH FRIGGIN' VIAGRA!

Okay, then. Seeing that nobody signed up for that tournament either, let's try for whenever the hell you people want to get up off your lazy butts and accomplish something! Sometime in June maybe?

OOC: Yeah, I'd hope it's unedited... I can't go publishing that kind of grammar. Yeah, you pretty much fit the kind of school... It's a school to teach adventurer's how to, well, adventure. Your ideas seem to reflect Harry Potter a little bit more than D&D though... Think 16, not 12. Otherwise, my only question is: Who's the guy in yours? Is it my character, or someone else?

Re: Caleworth Bandits « Result #5 on May 29, 2004, 12:11pm »
The mage looks at the over enthusiastic member before him. "I see I have one volenteer. Are there any others willing to take up the challenge?" He leans over towards the character with the new gleefully murderous eyes. "If I am to warn you, it will be now... The rune they possess gives them great powers, they are just ordinary men and women but they fight like the orcs of Tertanay and evade like the halflings of Altaren. He straightens back up, and gives a quick glance about the tavern before he concentrates his attention back on the group.

OOC: Wish we had more people here who could get into their characters so well. BTW, The black and white thing is interesting, and works well with the look of the site.
Sitting quietly at a nearby table with a pint of his favorite ale, Dyatu overhears the physically crumbling old man, and though he knows nothing of the mysterious man, he assumes all too easily that this man must be a wizard or sorcerer of some sort. He likes what he hears, and after the speech, he applauds, "Nicely done, good... wizard I'd suppose? I'd truly enjoy a new chance to murder my fellow men." He cracks a disturbingly timed smile and laughs a bit, as if the mage had told him some sort of mildly amusing joke. "So, when do we begin the slaughter?"

Re: The Little Merman « Result #7 on May 29, 2004, 1:27am »
Naolin runs into a whale who starts talking to him. Shocked that he's hearing a whale talk, he totally ignores what the whale says except for: "with this you are virtually invincible." When he asks the whale to repeat himself the whale clears his throat and when doing so gets a fish stuck in his blowhole. The whale flails around and then eventually stops. The whole tile Naolin just stares at the whale, tilting his head left and right. Then Naolin explains to the whale (now taking a dirt nap) that he has to go and doesn't have anymore time to hear the interesting story. He starts swimming and then realizes that his home is in the other direction. He knows he once heard a beautiful mermaid say that all oceans are connected to eachother so he decided that if he keeps swiming that way he'll eventually end up home.

Re: Chrono Phobia « Result #8 on May 29, 2004, 1:17am »
Parry, parry, thrust... Why must we practice such silly swordplay? Her eyes focus on him. She sees him concentration deeply on the task at hand. He seems to excel at it, yet he could barely cast a silly charm on one of the lesser creatures The wooden sword smacks her outter thigh. "Ouch," she massages the red mark, hoping the dull pain would discontinue. "Daydreaming again, you may excel at your spell classes but that doesn't mean you can go breezing through mine," the teacher scratched his head in puzzlement of the young girl before him. Her entire blood line was full of purely melee types who never seemed to be able to distinct a disarming spell from an enchancement, let alone able to cast one. She resembled her father so much, yet was his exact opposite. She knew what he was thinking, about how she was nothing like her family. Her sisters and brother would joke about how she was two years behind her class in swordplay while the rest of them were exceling their class by two and sometimes three years. They would often tease that she wasn't of their pure heritage and that she was some sort of mutant that would only be useful for experimenting on. When the silly class was finally over she quickly droped her wooden sword and in its place held a staff which she had gotten from her teacher. She knew the teacher had great favor in her over the other students and that she was far superior in her skills than to the rest of her class. Although she was proud of being so accomplished, she also felt a sense of dismay that the rest of the students wouldn't converse with her, aside from asking her to demonstrate certain spells they didn't understand. She didn't really care to make friends among them, except for the boy. It wasn't really his looks that attracted her to him, but something on a much deeper level that she couldn't put into words yet, but she had a feeling that they would cross paths in an unexpected way.
(OOC) Kinda a rough unedited draft, I thought it'd be cool to establish a kinda mage character conflicting with the character that was established earlier. I didn't really get the sense of what the school was about but if I didn't hit the mark you can always alter some of the stuff I miswrote about it.

Caleworth Bandits « Result #9 on May 29, 2004, 1:00am »
The older mage, obviously beaten badly about by father time, stumbles into the tavern. He peers to both his sides and seems content when he looks forward. He limps up to the table and the people seated about it and places his wrinkled hands on it for support. He grins and a tooth of gold shines from the light above their heads. He shoots a glare to each of them and clears his throat. "You may not know who I am and that is fine with me. I am in seek of brave adventureers in seek of Glory and Gold." His eyes focus past them. "I seem to be having a bit of trouble with some bandits about the area. These are no ordinary bandits mind you, but they are well organized and if you find one, you will most likely find ten more to accompany him. They have sieged the forts in the Caleworth area along with a rune important to the lives and well beings of you all. If you are willing to join on my adventure speak now or else you will be passed. The journey, although difficult and long, will be rewards, should you succeed. Speak now if you wish to claim your riches, or sit there like a dotty fool, so afraid of a little danger to take any risks in your life."

Re: Ye Old Tavern « Result #10 on May 29, 2004, 12:40am »
He walks into the doorway and peers to the members in the tavern. He pulls his cloak back to reveal a curved dagger with an important looking emblem on the handle. Upon sitting at the bar he motions two fingers towards the barkeep and recieves a mug of grog almost instantaniously. After taking a single sip he looks back at the two unprofessional travelers in his presence. He lets out and sigh and puts his dagger to the left of his mug. He motions the barkeep over.
"Who are the two new guys?"
