and what happened to Avatara..?


A topic on ATT seems to indicate that part of "what happened to him" is that he's leveling up his fifth 60 for World of Warcraft.

never read chronicles just because there's a new one out; but sometimes I go there when I feel like reading something (those often I don't finish because no offense but some of you people just go off :P)


Don't worry; we aren't offended at all.

*Turns to mob of angry chron writers behind him*

Right everyone? ;)

Well, he CLAIMed to be taking the week off from WoW...

The reason I havent been crancking(sp?) out a couple of chrons is probably due to the lack of TSes that I normally have been doing on MSN with friends. Due to school and such, they haven't been able to get on much.

Selax, can i pm you a ts that is kind of old to see if it fits the Cythera Chrons? Its kind of futuristic but not really...

Although I, of course, would be willing to take a look at it, I'd suggest running it by Avatara because I don't have the authority to okay such things. There are probably also others better able to tell you whether it qualifies as Cythera-related or not.

Personally, I'd think the main thing is whether or not it's are Cythera-related. Judging from some of the chrons in the chronicles section—including some of my own andthis (which I believe that Avatara okayed)—I'd say that this relation can be distant, but, again, that's just my opinion and I don't have the authority to say whether it's okay or not.

Selax, I think I might be able to do something with your idea #2

But I have to ditto Buzzzzy, "I've always had a problem with getting my ideas written."

Could a mod/admin please delete the double-post? I don't know how it happened. And the edit didn't say I edited it.

I might actually start one of these when my Christmas break starts, something which sadly won't happen for about two weeks.

I'm making some progress, I currently have Timon cast as an Indiana Jones type of guy. He uses Kesh heavily to keep from becoming a statue like all the other mages, my hero is slated to be his assistant/leader, (keep the seldane worrying about Timon instead of the real threat)

I hope to finish by Christmas.

That sounds interesting; I look forward to reading it.

Hmm, I was seriously considering posting one of these today—and I still might—but I really can't think of anything to use for it. I had briefly thought about doing something with cache's Blade and Dragon organizations (here). (Of course, I would require cache's ok before I could post a challenge concerning either of these two, and the responses would have to follow whatever guidelines cache set down for it.)

Anyone have any suggestions?

Consider it given. I did say they were fair game, after all. In case anyone didn't notice, I made the Perdeus character in the last TS a member of the Blade (spur-of-the-moment thing, it wasn't really planned.)

I'd have to put some thought into that. The tricky part would be having the organisations still secret at the end, an unfortunate requirement due to the nature of the chronicle 'Dark Legacy'.

Hmm, I might go ahead and start something (probably tomorrow) with this then with the general requirements of maintaining secrecy for the organization and following any guidelines that you decide on.

One more question that I'd like to ask concerning my response to this challenge (if I ever to get around to starting it): given Selax's age, his travels, his manipulative tendencies, the nature of some that he has worked for, and considering the extreme secrecy of both the Blade and the Dragon, is it likely or unlikely that Selax would be aware of the existence of one or both organizations (perhaps having encountered them before)?

In Cythera, unlikely, since they'd only just be beginning their operations at about this point. The Dracos might not be that far along with their counter-operation, or even aware of the Blade's actions there yet. If Selax has visited other worlds/realities he may well have come up against the Blade before, but the Dracos would be unlikely to approach him except in highly unusual circumstances. I wouldn't rule it out, though.

Hmm, it seems that I keep changing my mind on when to start this, but I will try to start something Sunday, although someone else may start such a challenge if they wish.

Well, I can probably write up a quick challenge today, but I don't know how good or clear it will be.
