*detonates the cleverly trapped apple tart* Hahaha take that foul thief! And as for the dark side lure...we have more cookies.

Done. ;D

Join me as I reclaim Eerongal's Cookie from Trendkill. We must band together before he comes after your various confectionry and chocalates and sugar goodnesses. For Cookie!

is steadly sneaking closer and closer to trendkill's back... while playing minecraft... and calling a prinny raid on Zas678.

Totally hired. The game is on, lads! I would like to announce my cookie-stealer assassin creed... Cookie before death, Cookie before weakness, Cookie before destination.

I would like to announce that I would like to apply for the position of Cookie stealer assassin for Eerongal.

@cuaiir I suggest an imagehosting site. They often have a copy and paste link called direct link. Just paste it into your post and when someone goes to that link it opens a new page with that picture.

I would like to announce that sleep is for wimps ;D...

when a city builds a wall and it gets too crowded inside, people move outside the wall and build homes there. My guess is that when the population expanded, they moved the wall to encompass the newer buildings. This happens in real life, though I can't think of any examples right now.

@cuaiir Don't forget that the more specific the spell is, the heavier the mageprice. @Silus Geass works similar to hypnotism; I would walk up to a person and say while using Geass " you will open the gate for me and forget that you opened the gate." then the victim carries out the command. However, I would not be able to do that again, to the same person, even if the command is a different one. It is also similar to the Jedi mind tricks from Star Wars; "These aren't the droids you are looking for". EDIT: here is a good example of Geass being abused (2:00 minutes in). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LX9HmM7UHH4

@cuaiir. Nice, wildmages. It would be interesting to see how you do the mage prices.

Reod-cursed Elantris trick house.

To Mycoltbug: I have played physical RPGs but not play-by-post so I guess it will be a learning experience for all of us. To Flamry: I also believe it to be a good Idea, though I would suggest leaving the map and towns on the story topic, so that we don't need to keep switching between tabs to see where we are going. Minor Note: Except for weekends, I will only have access to a computer between 3:30-4:00, and 8:30-11:00.

I would like to announce that I am said approved player. ;D

changes have been made in red. Oh...one question. Where is atium mined?

New version. Username: Emeralis00 Contact: [email protected] Character Name: Ambrosius (Ambro for short) Age: 28 Gender: Male Hometown: Calm Beach (now nonexistant) Marital Status: Single Appearance: Pale skin, half-black/half-red hair, green eyes with red rims, 6' 5", 155 lb., patches of scaly red skin. Thin. Wears countless bands of leather made from scraps, the spheremount is attached to a particularly wide band on the left arm. Personality: quiet, cynical, random bouts of depression, paranoid, often imposes challenges on himself. Familial grudge against Frozen Foothills. Doesn't believe in authority. History: Descended from a family who believes that they caused the destruction of the last age when their ancestors dropped the ball. It is unknown what ball they are refering too. The Great-great-grandfather of Ambrosius once stole a spheremount from the city of Frozen Foothills, and as a result the other spheremorphs cursed the entire family with patches of scaly skin. However, every generation, one family member is born without the curse. This member was entrusted with the spheremount, and the continuity of the family name. Ambrosius was born a twin. Both Ambrosius and his twin were unmarked, so it was decided that Ambrosius, as he was born first, would inherit the Spheremount. Yet, as they got older, Ambrosius started to develop the cursed scaly skin. Seeing this, the family took the Spheremount from Ambrosius and gave it to the younger twin. But Ambro would not give it up so easily. During the night, Ambro sneaked into his brother's room and killed his brother. nevertheless, The incident did not go unnoticed. Ambro's family stormed into the room, and Ambrosius barely escaped by jumping into the ocean, but in escaping he lost the last formsphere in the set, the Seraph. Believing Ambrosius to be dead, the family left Calm Beach. Initial Grid: It is named the Serpent Grid. It can hold four spheres in four sphere sockets; each sphere socket is in a staggered line, with connections between each socket's neighbor. The baseline can transition to any sphere and back in fifteen seconds, but any transition between forms can only be done on connections and with twenty seconds. The first and last socket have no connection. example http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/8445/morphinggrid.jpg Forms: Atium Misting, Bladesinger, smoke Twist Form Name: Atium Misting Form Description:Allows the user to see the immediate future and process the information for a dramatic increase in their battle effectiveness. Form Speciation:Basic form Form Name: Melodic Bladesinger Form Description: wears silk for armor (only reduces damage), wields a set of long-knifes that have different tones. Each tone creates a different form of damage. Can duel wield and throw Tones. Each tone returns to the thrower. (limit 6 Tones) Form Speciation: Bladesinger-> Melodic Bladesinger Form Name: Smoke Twist Form Description: Equipment of two candles. One candle creates smoke with uncontrolled hallucinogenic qualities. The other causes soporific effects. Only effects biological creatures. User is immune. (evolved from basic form Smoke Braider) Form Speciation: Smoke Braider -> Smoke Twist Roleplay Sample: The Droid's utility laser sliced a frown in Ambro's Silk armor, leaving the smell of charred flesh and silk. Face held in composure, Ambro drew the First Tone Acid. I must strike the Droid with my hand before striking with the knife. *clang* "Left Hand challenge complete...as if it meant something." *SHEERRRinnggg* First Tone left its mark upon the droid's exterior power supply. The droid let loose a cloud of static as if it was aware of its own mortality...and died. Ambrosius looked up to find the square deserted. "Don't you just feel the Family Loyalty. This town is dead, Storming family..." With a nod to himself, Ambro picked up the pack of food and his Spheremount that were now his only possessions. "Perhaps they forgot...not likely." There was a chuckle, a sigh, then fading footsteps. Walking along the dirt path to bridge town, Ambrosius spied several figures approaching from his right. Humanoid at least. most-likely bandits, hopefully not meta-human but can't be sure. Ambro began transitioning to Atium Misting. The charge of energy ran throughout his body, but most especially around his eyes, building in strength until...blink. It was done. The atium-shadows were there even as the rather large group of humans surrounded him. Not meta-humans at least, but suspicious. "Ahh, he's got nuthin' on 'im." "You got sum' disees or sumfing' orar you even human?" Bandits. Easily dealt with. "Hey, you weesa talkin to ya, gimme that shiny disk you got'der and we no kill you." The apparent leader spoke up over the babble of the bandits. Ambro smiled, but not of humor or anticipation. Don't cause direct wounding until the last bandit. Ambro jumped to the left, narrowly missing the swung club as it slammed into his recently vacated location. The bandits drew their weapons, many clubs and one or two rusty daggers, with the leader pulling out a small black sparking shape. Ambro frowned, thinking. What is that? He sidestepped pushing a bandit into the knife of another. A couple broken heads, some chopped off hands, and three more stabbings later (all through friendly fire) and the bandits began to hesitate, several turned and ran. The leader, who was hanging back the entire time, grabbed one and hit the mook with the object. The pitiful bandit screamed and dropped, twitching, to the ground. However, even this fearful punishment wasn't enough to keep the remaining bandits here. The battered bandits fled, leaving their supposed leader behind. "Cowards...dogs! Git back heer!" shouted the red-faced leader. Ambro felt cold as the charge left him, taking the form of silk armor. The Second Tone sonic, in hand. Ambro walked up to the last foe. Turning, the leader saw only a keening knife plunge into his chest. Wiping off the blood, Ambrosius picked up the Tech. Perhaps I can sell it, or use it. Ambrosius gazed in the direction of Bridgetown. Not much use for farmers though. With a shrug, and barely a glance at the bodies, Ambro continued.

"The philosophers assure me that this is the time, that the signs have been met. But I still wonder if they have the wrong man. So many people depend on me. They say I will hold the future of the entire world on my arms." (Emphasis mine) That line stuck out at me immediately, and stuck out more and more as I read more of the epigraphs. The epigraph writer, Alendi, referred to the prophecies several times, and I connected that line with the prophecies in my mind. ON his arms, not IN his arms, as you would expect. The wording itself. Prophecies that specific are that specific for a reason. Then we're introduced to Sazed, who uses Feruchemy. Once that was explained, and it was explained what a Keeper does, and that the metal he stores attributes in are on his arms, it just clicked into place for me. Sazed was/is the Hero of Ages. I spent the next two books hoping I was wrong. As for Elend and Vin dying... I've read a lot of fantasy. A lot. The main hero dying by the end of the series is something I'm used to. Once I realized that Sazed was the HoA in Final Empire, I began to suspect that Vin was going to die by the end of the third book. I became more an more convinced as I kept reading. Why? Because I liked Vin. And nine times out of ten, my favourite characters end up dead. In other words, through Extreme Genre Savvy. Yes. Bow before me, your Fantasy Genre God! Agreed, and done. BOW BEFORE MY MODLINESS! :-[ oops. I didn't think I would get much discussion.

I guessed about the earring in book one, that they were important but didn't understand the implications of it with hemalurgy.

So I was trying to cheer up a super depressed friend, I showed her this quote, and she's now not depressed anymore. Be proud. ...;D I was trying to think of an extreme contradiction

seems like fun

was trying to recall from memory. I have it favorited on my favorites bar. http://www.starshipexcelsior.com/index.php

...run from shiro. in case of Chaos...

Basically, the rules are simple. The poster above you says "In case of Emergency", and you say something from a scenario thats remotely funny. You can replace "Emergency" with anything, by the way. So essentially, its like this. In case of Emergency ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call for Chuck Norris In case of Chuck Norris ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Run like hell. In case of Zombie Apocalypse ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ect ect. In case of Emergency credits to Monawkaran of Looking for group forums. I hope you don't mind.
