Lots of perspectives, and stuff. Though I suppose university is always kinda like that- guess the whole learning magic thing just exacerbates it." 14 hours ago, Isabelle6060 said: Katie gave Anmil a look that said something like you know this boy and you never told me? “And I’m Katie. It’s a pleasure to meet you, Joel.” Kat waved with a paw. ”and this is Kat.” Katie said, gesturing to her dragon on her shoulder. "Aw! It's nice to meet you too, Kat." He looks at Katie. "Sparkfinder, I presume? I have my own, though I left her at my dorm. She's been grumpy ever since we got here." 10 hours ago, Emery the Steelrunner said: Jared turned to look at Joel with his black eyes. “It’s a pleasure to meet you Joel.” He said with a nod. @Goob "Cool eyes." Ooh, maybe shouldn't of blurted that one out. 10 hours ago, Trutharchivist said: Ben nodded. "Nice to meet you." He saw that Anmil looked... Somewhat uncomfortable. "I'm sorry, did we interrupt you mid-conversation?" He asked. "Oh, me and Anmil here were just talking about how people taking magic have to be masochists, haha. Though yes, you did kind of interrupt us. Not really your fault, though, is it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JK, freeform RP. No dice! Ben noticed that Anmil seemed uncomfortable with the attention. He moved from side to side himself, wondering what he could do about it.

Quote Well, in that case I have no idea what to do, never played DnD, it was just a weird joke I get a save throw! I'm pretty confident of my chances. Either that, or I'll claim you're trying to take over the DM's role, which is obviously strictly forbidden in any kind of RP. 31 minutes ago, Goob said: "Well, Necromancers have the dreams and the ceremony, mind harvesters have the memories, and I said the Spiritbinders got off a little easy.

Eluvianii he/him Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 Quote Ok, this seems suitably late. Ilia felt her legs burn as she finally saw a group of people gathered ahead, outside of Crawnly Keep. Luckily, it looked like they hadn't left yet. She ran past them and into the keep. "I'm here" she started, having to pause to breathe for a few seconds "for the orientation." she finished. Having spoken before actually checking if there was anyone inside. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
