Random Stuff VII: The Admins Awaken
The Honor Spren replied to Young Bard's topic in Forum Games & Random Stuff
The only Urban Legend around here that I know of is not creepy at all.Supposedly these really annoying insects we have around here (they're called love bugs) are mosquitos that were genetically modified to incorporate some ladybug genes by a lab at FIT (Florida Institute of Technology). -

((That sounds cool, I'll consider it. But then, it doesn't exactly fit with the means of travel.))Realmatic Wells are the only gateways between realms. They look like a normal well, but the liquid is white and glowing. They can be easy to use, once you have had practice. There is more to it, but essentially, you dive into it and come out a different one. It is important to know which realm you wish to go to, or it becomes random. Sometimes, you will see Tumahab, the great Tusked fish that swims in the liquid between the realms. When you come out of a well, you are not wet. Elemental magic is an innate part of being Nemle, though some are more powerful than others. It is impossible for other species to use, they have their own forms of magic, from their own spirit contracts. Everyone is born with their own element. I am a moonlight, my sister is a sunlight. I have a friend who is a fire and his brother is a lightning. ((They're some of my other characters. It's okay if you want to ask Eneless about them.)) Our appearances take after our elements. It is the reason I have silver hair and violet eyes, and my sister has golden hair and sky blue eyes. The way it works, you must know what spell you would like to cast and hand motions are often needed. Closing your eyes can help too. When our ancestors came up through the realms, they found Aemudi. But other humans already lived there and they did not want any others. Because we were so badly persecuted, we made a contract with the spirits to seal that realm off, so that none of us would ever have to go through that again. 'Our days of hardship are over.' We had said. 'We left those behind when we departed the Domain of Wraiths.' But there must be way to slip through those barriers. I have heard of people going there. Texts! I've met people who went there. But they will never say how they went through. Some of the differences between humans and us, are ear shape, eye color, hair color, and blood color. Our eyes and hair color change to match our element. An element of dreams could even change their hair and eye color based on emotions. Our blood is silver. But pointed ears and strange colorings are part of any race that has long time dealings with spirits. Things like this have happened to other races, like the Ekorra and the Dooleema. ((I do have a sort-of-story planned for this character. She is part of a small team that will appear in all of my stories. I haven't exactly figured out her specific story, though I know her background, but I know her role in some other stories I have.)) -

"There was a fire." "Where?" "Everywhere." I can't stand mortals. Too stringy.

Trying to write a hook for the begining of a book
The Honor Spren replied to bobsaveg's topic in Creator's Corner
I think that hook works well. I would say earlier on that he wears shackles. It feels sort of lik deux ex machina, in a way? Even though it is just a small hook. But it's good, now I want to learn more. -

fiction Ask a Nemle Grad Student Anything!
The Honor Spren replied to The Honor Spren's topic in Creator's Corner
The Nemle do the most ((Imagine some super cool word for the equivalent of World Hopping here)). And while we do try to be careful . . . missions do go wrong occasionally. Even if someone else is responsible, the Nemle would have tried to stop them. If they are not stopped, we have failed. . . . I have already told you. Aemudi. Hmmm . . . Knowledge is the least common in Aemudi and Lyra. One can find information in Relats and The Domain of Wraiths, though it takes a bit of searching in the right places. Sol, the Twin Realm, is quite aware, but only interested in making contact with the other half of itself. Feywild and The Traveler's Haven are the most realmatically aware. We have a few trade routes set up with Feywild. Every child is taught of other realms before they are five years old. So yes, I would say knowledge is quite common here. The name comes from our religion. But it means that our realm is a safe place for us. It is where we can always come to rest after a long journey. -

There's also some creepy pasta associated with the game, like Herobrine in Minecraft. It's name is the spirit of Shiro, though that's just a myth. . . . Or is it?

Oh yeah, Spanish has gendered words too. Maybe it's just English that's an odd one out. I made a fictional AMA. . . . Why did I do that. -

The first thing you need to know, is that there are Seven realms, stacked like truif cakes. Aemudi is the middle realm. My people live in the uppermost realm, which we call The Traveler's Haven. And Nemle is not the name of the school I attend, but the name of my species, though we were once human too. My school teaches advanced elemental magic and the use of Realmatic Wells. I have only had a few glimpses of Aemudi. It is generally sealed off from us. I have met a girl from Aemudi before, but she was a Nemle. She had the Element of dreams and was one of the most powerful magic users I have ever met. Any paranormal activity in your realm is something seeping in from another one. More often then not, Nemle are indirectly the cause of this and are given the full blame. This has created the misconception that we are trouble makers. I can assure you, we are not. -
How do you manufacture characters?
The Honor Spren replied to bluefoxicy's topic in Creator's Corner
It sounds strange, but I would suggest purchasing a baby name book. I stole mine from my parents. They (hopefully) won't be needing it any time soon. It's a wonderful resource to have for character names. Nearly all of my character names come from that book. -
The girl you call Honor Spren has convinced me to host this, and I hope that letting you ask me anything, will not only help me to better understand the humans of Aemudi, or Earth, but also abolish the rumors that some of you have about my kind. This is an approximation of my appearance, though it is inaccurate. My hair is a lighter silver, my eyes a darker violet, and my proportions more realistic. ((My replies will be in double parentheses. Sorry I couldn't give more information on Eneless at the beginning of this. I'm running low on time, right now. I should be able to finalize a few terms soon.))

Welcome to the Shard: The Best Corner of the Internet! That should really be our slogan or something . . . Take a welcome upvote! And you should just know up front that if anyone offers you a welcome cookie, most cookies are full of hemalurgic spikes. You are now warned.

I haven't ever actually had anything happen to me that would be good enough to make a story, but Shel Silverstein has, and it's pretty sweet.

. . . Neither? Loquats are related to apples, pears, and peaches. Kumquats are a type of citrus. And needless to say, meerkats are a kind of mongoose.
