    Day Eight: Plans within plans. The other Shards had decided that there was nothing much more that they could do that night. They figured that Odium would come for them anyway. Honor accompanied Wilkin back to his home, Investing in the place to protect from intrusion. Wish Wilkin a good night, Honor departed, leaving Wilkin to get some rest. He poured himself a cup of hot chocolate to calm his nerves, before eventually heading off to bed. Sleep came quickly. The silence in the dead of night was shattered with an explosion that rocked the house. Wilkin rolled out of bed, knife at the ready, immediately wide awake. The glowing sigil that signaled Honor’s protection was presented faded in front of his eyes, returning the room to darkness. He held his breath, listening. He could hear some muttered words from outside his door. Wilkin moved quickly and quietly to the door. He could hear his attacker (or attackers. He could quite tell yet) fumbling with something. Taking a moment to prepare himself, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, he laid his hand on the door handle, about to rush out and surprise whoever was out there. A sword burst through the door, splitting through wood and clothes and flesh as if it were butter. He gasped and shoved himself backwards, sliding off the blade. Investiture flowed through his veins as the skin started to reknit. The door burst open, and a figure wreathed in smoke and cloud strode through the door. It closed the distance to him in a matter of seconds, slamming him back into the wall. The figure’s face, hidden behind a sheet of smoke, seemed to morph into a macabre grin. “Surprise!” Smokey confetti exploded from behind the figure. “Hal was right about how fun it is to give you a good fright! He left a message by the way. Before he went, he says to me “Now, remind Wilkins that I forgive him, okay?” He seemed to think you’d want to here that. Or you wouldn’t. I couldn’t quite tell. Well Wilkin? Any last words?” Wilkin grinned back. “You should've learned from Second’s mistake. Don’t play with me, just kill me quickly.” The figure raised one smokey eyebrow, before being yanked violently backwards by a grey arm. The Lifeless corpse of Araris Valerian threw the figure through the wall, and jumped down after it, giving Wilkin time to grab his emergency bag and make a run for it. The lifeless wouldn’t survive, but it had served it’s purpose. He hoped this new holder of Odium was stupid enough to engage the lifeless in a sword fight. If he did, he wagered the lifeless would have a fair chance of victory. The next morning, Wilkin returned to the scene of the attack, this time with backup in case his attacker was still there. They found the body of Araris propped against a fence, with a sword skewered through him. He was a corpse for the second time. The scene showed that a fight had taken place, with a couple areas where there were drips of blood. It seemed the lifeless had indeed managed to engage the Lord of Hate in single combat, and had even managed to draw blood. Wilkin’s reflected on how lucky he was. Alvom, instead of Commanding his lifeless to to defend him from the crowd, had instead Commanded it to protect him. And it had done so gloriously this day. He resolved to see that Araris was given honor for his service both in life and in death. He would see this new Odium brought to justice for his crimes. Wilson was attacked! She survived. Wilson was attacked! She was saved by a Lifeless. IMPORTANT RULE CHANGE: Players are no longer restricted to one action per turn. If they have multiple actions that can be used, up to three of them may be used on a turn. EDIT: Haelbarde decided to Embellish the writeup. Go shower one of his posts with Upvotes pls.

    >.< This writeup will be delayed by an hour. an extremely large problem was pointed out to me, and it needs to be fixed, and possible restitutions need to be made. I apologize for the inconvenience.
  3. Jo and the Bush
    Time. EDIT: Hey! Someone found my Easter Egg. Congrats.

    12 minutes till Rollover.

    Is there a name for the fandom members?
  6. Jo and the Bush
    I've been avoiding spoilers like the plague, so no. Is it as good as the Rainbow Rocks Soundtrack?

    Blood and bone, wood and sand, time of knowledge close at hand. My mind my own, and set me free. Open my eyes, and let me see.

      Instructions unclear. Eyes now blinded by sand.

      Jo and the Bush

      That's, not supposed to be possible. How the heck did you even have eyes if the sand was still present?

  8. Jo and the Bush
    But this way you'd get to skip the making part and go straight to trolling. EDIT: Also, I'm going to make a list regardless now.
  9. Jo and the Bush
    It's more fun to make it, and then troll everyone else as they try to solve it.

    Wilkins sat while the others voted on whether it was time to kill Hal. He had been the first to cast his vote. While the others made up their minds, he began .“There, out in the darkness A fugitive running Fallen from Honor Fallen from grace Kiireon be my witness I never shall yield Till we come face to face Till we come face to face He knows his way in the dark Mine is the way that brings life Those who follow the path of all Hatred Shall have their reward And as he falls as Jain did fall The flames The sword…” He was broken out of his reverie by Hoid. “We’ve reached a decision. We kill him today.” Hal sat on Odium’s throne on Braize. He knew what was coming. May as well meet his end with pride, still in control. He had finished penning a letter to Clan Heatherlocke, detailing his side of the events happening across the Cosmere at present. That is what they did, after all. Keep History. Only this time, he’d become part of history. He didn’t want his story to be misrepresented. There would have to be a reckoning for the injustice done by Wilkins. As he waited in an usual state of serenity for the delegation of Shards to arrive, he began to , before adding some words. “Take my Hate, take my Shard, break away the dark facade. I don’t care, I’m still free, you can’t take the sky from me.” As he sung the words, he suddenly knew how he should go. “Take me out to the black, tell ‘em I ain’t coming back.” He’d picked up a few tricks throughout his travels. Death did not have to the end. “Burn me up where all can see, you can’t take the sky from me.” He had seen the presence of the deceased remain to further affect the world they had just left. At that moment, there were a series of pops as the forms of the five Shardbearers materialized in his throne room. Hal stood. “Welcome to my humble abode.” He bowed a deep flourishing bow. “You know why we’re here. What is about to happen.” Wilkin’s voice was guarded. Hal smiled, moving forward to lean over the podium that stood between him and his foes. “I know what you expect to achieve here.” He took a step back. He suddenly gathered his power in towards him, before letting it explode out of him, pushing his would be executioners back a few meters. His arms held out to the sides, he held the energy as a barrier between them. Letting out one final grin, he sung out a few last words. “There’s no place I can’t be, since I’ve found serenity.” While the last word rang clear through the room, he took the energy barrier, forming it into red lances. Honor threw up a shield around the group of Shards, thinking it was another attack. But rather than propelling the spears at his foes, he instead let them shoot towards himself. The energy pierced right through him, destroying the man that had been the Lord of Hate. The room exploded with light. Wilkin surveyed the ruined scene that had been Odium’s throne room. Where Hal had last stood, there was now a large crater. There was no body to be found, nor a Shard. He figured it had gone to one of Hal’s compatriots, one of Odium’s Champions. No matter. Odium will not remain unfound. After one final glance, he stepped into Shadesmar. There is more work to be done. Hal watched as Wilkin disappeared. He hoped that by taking his own life, that perhaps Wilkin would resent the fact, not having been able to land the final blow. Hal would have to make sure that Wilkin found out that Hal was still around. He grinned. “But you can’t take the sky from me!” He whispered the last line of the song. Now he could watch, and maybe meddle somewhat, and this time, Wilkin would not be watching for him. Haelbarde was Odium! He provided the writeup BTW. Votes: Paranoid King(3): Kipper, Mailliw, Haelbarde Hael(5): Wilson, Seonid, Nicoco, Honey, Dowanx Phat(1): Clanky Player List: Quicklinks:

    3 minutes until rollover. EDIT: Also, the New Turn will probably be up within two minutes or so of rollover.

    Actually it's simple. Grab the titles you want, grab a few of the more rabid fans, (Claincy, Kobold, and I Could do it) and let us sort them for you. then all you have to do is approve them, and you're good.
  13. Jo and the Bush
    He could always add the non-Cosmere titles.

    I'm wondering what Varsuvius' Role is going to be in this book. Haley and Elan had the Golem arc, Belkar, Roy and Durkon have the current fight, is Varsuvius just going to sit this book out?

      I had to reread it a few times before I could believe it.

      The following statement is false. The previous statement is true.

      It took me far to long to realize that was a paradox.

    How is that pwning? I've already finished Highprince of War.

    I can always hide this thread once I have a method. Currently I think the vlog method woild be the easiest method. Thanks for all the help!

    I would applaud their audacity, then put the vote on them.

    Random Transportation! Or actual Hands of Midus using Transformation.

    OH MY GOSH THAT WAS THE FREAKIEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN. Please Kobold, give some warning about what is in a spoiler. And I have yet to watch Dr. Who. I'm still working through the Original Star Trek.

    I read way to many sci-fi and fantasy novels. They've caused me to come up with various plans and procedures in case of supernatural events. For instance, I can prove to my past self I'm myself from the future, I can teach others how to prove to me they're trapped in a Timeloop, I have a signed 'Roomate' Agreement that dictates exactly what will happen if I get a clone (Evil or otherwise), and I know what to do if I'm sent into various alternate dimensions. One thing someone brought up to me though, is memory Wiping. What do I do to prevent memory wiping? Assuming I realize someone is about to wipe my memory of the past 5 minutes, or entire lifespan, how do I ensure my memory is restored?
