Hi, VH...

Unfortunately, this wonderful third episode was somewhat overshadowed. Great addition, VH, and your close on Chapter III has all of us yelling in unison with Jaheira...

?Damn you Valygar! Fight!? she screamed, tears carving furrows in the soot that caked her face. Valygar?s eyelids sank shut and his breathing became shallower and slower. Looking behind her to where Aleria crouched, she shouted at the top of her lungs, ?Aleria!! Valygar, he?s dying!! I need your help!!?

I will admit, it is a bit overshadowed, but I needed some sort of exterior cut, and this seemed to be the way to set up the next chapter. It is a bit of a shocker, to switch from the etheral to the real.. but I hope with CH 4 it will all come together.

You're such a snot.. Keeping us hanging like this. AAARRRRGGGGGG.......... I've already had to give Bey at least a couple of anti-depressants to keep her on her feet until you drag us back from the precipice of this cliff hanger. A couple of turnips and a couple of raspberries for you, dear lad.. :turnip2: :turnip:

MG

MMMM.. raspberries. (Hands the turnips to Jan)

And I know I've kept you all hanging, but I promise a resolution in the near future. I just need to finish the chapter of another story of mine that has long been neglected. (A few acquaintances of ours are threatening me with sharpened spoons and rotten turnips, so, you know, I'm kinda stuck)

Thanks for reading!

Pitchfork? dry.gif Ha! Peanuts! Too good for you! tongue.gif

Oh...

He's still alive! So there!

Pitchfork? (I'll loan you my pointy stick+2 biggrin.gif )

Nice, nice work, VH. But I felt a little sympathy 'twinge' in my hands as I read through the healing ritual.. *ouch*

MG

Thanks MG. Well, for everything else other than the pitchfork/pointy stick. That's just mean.

Nice work, VigaHrolf. . Sorry, I only just came back from camp, else I'd have commented earlier. You've done a great job! Just continue it... please? Pretty please?

Thank you very much Shadowhawke. And no worries.

As to continuing... it may be. But I don't know about that right now. So I guess it's just.. watch this space?

MG,

Thanks for the kind words.

And I'm sure you're happy to see a piece of my work appearing on the FW forum. Since I'm a mod and all.

Bey,

Thank you. I know you like the story of my young paladin lassie Aleria, and I figured I should bring her over for a visit.

As to other goodies.. I have NO idea what you could be talking about.

Can't think of much to say so I'll have to stick with this

Very moving and emotional
I'm a sap for averted tradedy

Well, thank you for reading and for taking the time to comment. And I'm glad that you enjoyed my piece.

MG,

Thank you for the compliment again. I'm glad you like the 'etheral' chapter as I refer to it.

As to other material... it may appear. It just may. I've got a little more time, so it just may.

The Cursed,

The idea came from the fact that I've always believed that extremely powerful artifacts, such as a Holy Avenger would be something beyond a simple magical tool. Especially something more divine like a HA. So I thought more about it and came up with the idea of Carsomyr being 'sentient' Carsomyr, at least Aleria's Carsomyr, is not quite the same as the ever amusing Lilarcor, but has a definite pyschological/mental/spiritual aspect that can be addressed.

As to turning it to the game, I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. Do you mean turning it into more of a mod type thing or more of a 'will we get to see Carsomyr interact with the rest of the game' kinda thing?

So demanding, you two.

And I'll be working on it soon, just another story got in the way and is demanding to be written. At some point between fits of playing Fallout 2. Sniper rifle rocks.

Wow..

I've neglected a few comments here. My apologies to one and all.

Notmrt:

I always enjoy letting people see my madness. Especially without the use of a drill. Unless I get the use the drill. Just not on me.

Bey:

I know you won't. See, but if you make me, I'll HIDE! Hah!

MG: (or should I say, Naughty MG)

The funny thing is, one of my characters, the lovable fuzzball Viga, is actually a dedicated cartographer. One of the character quirks I gave him to go with his wanderlust. I figured it kinda fit.

And as to that little Aerie number... that is kept in a hermetically sealed vault for the safety of those in the region. Their brains might melt.

Kaos:

Thank you.

And to answer your question, I do in fact intend to finish it. It kind of fell to the wayside as I worked on another project, but your comment actually brought it roaring back out the cobwebs of my mind. No promise on a release date, but it is coming. And also, thank you for the kind words on my action sequences. I work hard on them and I'm glad that they are appreciated.

Thank you one and all.

Goodness!!!

I supressed the fact that this was a cliffhanger!

Repressed memories are bad. I suggest that you start drinking heavily. Works for me!

Please! Don't make us wait for long! I want to know where you go from here!

A few hints. Its not Bermuda. And its not the French Riviera. But it should hopefully be quite interesting.

Like Minds is a wonderful piece of writing.

Bey

Now you're making me blush. Stop that!

PS: Anti-depressants came in quite handy, by the way! Thanks, MG!

Ahh.. nix the drinking.. you got better stuff!

You know this is one of my favourite stories (beside the OTHER one *poke poke*) and I'm very happy you decided to continue it.

Well, when you have a tall, powerful, beautiful woman in plate mail weilding a giant sword starts poking you, well, you have to take up the pen again and help her out.

Your paladin is a fascinating character. The healing sequence and the idea of it is just so very, well...Viga, I guess.

Bey

Thanks Bey. I do like her a lot and I find her character to be most interesting to play with. Plus, I consider it a good challenge to try and write a good holy knight. And as to the healing, I guess it is a bit in my idiom, eh?

And I had to heal him. I didn't need you coming after me with a pitchfork.

Theo,

Hehee.. nice pic. I think the box was better though.

And as to druidess and snugglage.. I may be Anti EATCO, but that doesn't mean I don't like elves. I just don't think they're the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Theo,

As the duly appointed representative of Anti EATCO, I welcome you here, you crazy elf lover.

And its good to see the ol Rush rushing about.

Course... I do wonder a bit about the box thing going on.... but I'll just leave it at that.

Posted by VigaHrolf on 29 June 2004 - 08:44 PM in Scribbles on the Wall

I believe the big furry pig that Og refers to is a wolf. Because he named it woolf.

But I must say, I do love Og's style and delivery.

VH like OG story!
VH buy Og drink!

LOL

#114695 Many Meetings

Posted by VigaHrolf on 06 May 2004 - 09:38 AM in Scribbles on the Wall

Ahh yes...

Read this and while I don't think its a good idea, I don't necessarily think its a bad idea. It has just generally been my opinion and experience that round robins like this don't work unless you have a set crew and an overarching idea of what this crew wants to do. Otherwise you might go interesting places, but you could also get story yanking and such. Or people jumping in to just disrupt or yell strange things.

What MG is refering to that I ran, a more cooperative story telling system with an established leader or DM, I think would be more successful. Then everyone takes a character and you spin your story that way instead of fighting over how the MainChar will develop. Sure, its more constrained but its more likely to be successful and rewarding.

Just my two cents.

#115361 Many Meetings

Posted by VigaHrolf on 09 May 2004 - 12:02 PM in Scribbles on the Wall

I was just thinking that an RP would be better served by multiple writers - it's just as challenging and everyone is then allowed to develop their own character and get deeply involved in the story instead of it lerching one way or the other.

I enjoyed the RP from FWp, while it lasted.
..and, as moderator, you (VH) could (now) delete the stray postings that occurred.

Cybersquirt,

First, love the Zhaan avatar.

Second, you have an excellent point about the threaded tale, that as a mod I could at least ensure that no one disrupts the flow. So if there are those who really want to run this, I will be available for shepherding and the like.

Third, glad you liked the FWP roleplay while it lasted. It was good fun and I think it had a good crew.

Ru,

I'm really enjoying the Tale of Anaria. I'm quite curious as to what is next. How will Ano react? Kelsey? What about Imoen and Jaheira?

And will hear more from Sarevok. I'm sure he'll have a few nice and kind and comforting things to say.

The rumors of my disappearance were only slightly exagerated. I think.

Nonetheless, congratulations Bey and welcome to the team.

#110376 Tavern Fights!

Posted by VigaHrolf on 16 April 2004 - 12:30 PM in IE Mod Ideas

This sounds like it could be an amusing mini mod to add a good bit of color to the game. Not just necessarily tavern fights, but other things going on in taverns. Romantic rendezvous by just random people, women of negotiable virtue advertising and even propositioning PCs and NPCs, storytellers, con artists and all the ilk.

And a few good brawls, either between randoms or some random and the party, with the potential for non violent conclusion and some good banter.

And just random fun like, some poor sob is drinking and you talk to him. He's depressed and you ask why. His lady has dumped him and if you actually listen, you can give him some advice, some good, some bad, some designed to just piss him off. Then maybe see them make up of blow up.

Some random encounters with the Amnian characters associates could be fun. Meet Jan's cousin Rudolph, Nalia's friend Deiter, and Anomen's poker circle, etc...

Bwahahaha... now that is a funny funny tale. Its amazing what bored kids will come up with with a little ale in the bellies and not enough sense in their heads.

And loved the Beavis and Butthead routine.

Farsal,

Some funny funny stuff there. The repeated lines by Ano and K were especially funny. Two jealous men seeing 'their' lady in nice silky lingerie.

Course, they coulda just enjoyed the view.

Posted by VigaHrolf on 09 April 2004 - 11:49 AM in Scribbles on the Wall

Discharger...

A humerous tale, but it could use some style work. What my co Mod suggested above, that you seperate out your dialogue into seperate paragraphs... such as

"So, dude, wanna beer?" asked Neeber. "Sure." said Noober. "Cool, bottoms up!"
is harder to read than

"So, dude, wanna beer?" asked Neeber.

"Sure." said Noober.

"Cool, bottoms up!"

You get much better seperation and clarity. And in this case we realize that Neeber said cool, not Noober.

Also, there are a lot of free spell checkers and such out there (Check out Download.com). And I hate to harp on it, but something as simple as spelling really can make or break a story, because it can take your reader out and break the flow.

Welcome though and I hope that you enjoy your stay in FW FanFic
