Topic: OOC Thread

Storm Divine

Okay, I'm thinking that I need to let you guys know what my plans are for Storm, and the plans for the threads. That way we're all on the same page, yeah?


Okay, so after Storm's return, she has called Sanctuary and is staying with the Sisterhood. The thread is called 'Transition' and please feel free to post there. If it's to visit, talk to... observe, whatever. That thread is open to everyone!

I am also going to start a thread of Storm's late night visit/s to her burned down home. I am open for others being involved, but please PM me before your post. There needs to be logical reasons for other charries being there, ya know?

And if you have any other questions for me, post them here, or simply PM me. Thanks!

Storm Divine

'Whisper in the Dark' is now open for all of you guys! Please PM me if you are interested - it should be fun if anyone wants to join. Thanks guys!

The thread "No One Else Knows" describes her visits to the Air Realm, and what is going on over there. Since I don't have a distinct timeline... each post I'm going to make a full day, and I'll try to give a sense of time in it.. it's just difficult with the time being absurdly different between Realms.

Have fun!

Assadar

Fior anyone wondering, the "Behind Closed Eyes" thread is a thread where Assadar meditates, and looks into his past. It is just a way for us to get to know him better.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-03-08 01:41 EST
Just to clarify, 'In the Secret' takes place late Friday evening (3-9) early Saturday (3-10). That is all!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-03-08 13:08 EST
I have realized that in the thread 'No One Else Knows' I use many other NPC's that are involved in the stories, and hopefully will be seen around much more.

All the names and titles I have posted in the sticky 'Know the Characters'

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-03-21 10:46 EST
Okay, just to clarify some things;

Storm has now moved in with Erin at the cabin on the shore. (Location best described by Jewell's Villa on the map). The thread 'The Odd Couple' Is just interactions between Storm and Erin, and the thread 'Transition, Phase II' is strictly Storm and her adjusting to new turns in life.

Thanks guys!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-03-22 17:56 EST
Alright, I'm sorry guys that I haven't been the posting fiend I usually am, or for just lurking about. I'm really sick for the time being, and I cannot concentrate very well :/

I will try my best though! Should be better within a week or two.. and if not.. well then, that's no good, is it? :D

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-03-27 16:44 EST
Feeling better enough to start back up on my posts. Should be around the Inn more also!.... Depending.

Anywhoooo, Those Who Wait is going to go between Storm and Adrienne, and it's just going to describe how the four Guardians work together to solve the Korigan problem.

She will still be going back home every now and then, so the No One Else Knows post is still alive.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-04-13 01:30 EST
For all of you who do not know; Storm was away during the week of 4-02 to 4-09 with Ewan.

http://rdi.dragonsmark.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t= 5231

Here's the thread. You better read it, as it took soooo long to fix those logs (with much help from Ewan-mun of course)

So.. yeah... go read it!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-04-13 01:31 EST
And one more thing... Assadar-mun and I are going to be away for the weekend. Building houses in Mexico and whatnot.

Storm is going to be outside of the city, either being in her realm or staying at the cabin. Depending on things, she might help Lydia with the puppy. But you catch the drift. She's staying hidden for the time being.

See y'all in a couple of days!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-04-17 13:18 EST
Alrighty, for all of you who MUST know, I did not drink the water in Mexico ;D Everything went well, and we were able to build three houses within the weekend!

Sooo, the thread 'Early Morning Patrol and Training' in the Scathachian Sanctuary I am also posting parts of it in the thread 'Those Who Wait' in this folder. Just because of the change of location and the addition of different characters.

The night that this is going on is April 16 (well, 17 since it is the wee hours of the morning)

I promise I'll try to finish before I play the Storm tonight!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-05-02 02:17 EST
Sorry that I have been away the past few days, I was in Washington D.C. and performed in the Kennedy Center. It was fantastic! I could not inform anyone because the site was always down and posting was insane.

I promise that I'll do a thread of the ball and her absence, hopefully I'll get to it tomorrow!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-05-02 23:23 EST
'Dancing into Ideas' Obviously has already happened. The actual ball was on April 28, though she was gone before and after also.

Have fun!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-05-26 12:09 EST
I am so sorry that I have not been around this past week! It's been a busy one! My laptop is also screwy at the moment, so I do not know how bad that is going to affect when I can 'come back'. Assume that Storm is still staying at the Isis Manor, doing whatever it is that she does :D

....not to mention I got engaged last night! So I am sure that you are all a bit understandable!

Lydia Loran

Date: 2007-05-26 13:06 EST
Awesome! Congratulations~ :)

Ewan Corinsson

Date: 2007-05-27 10:07 EST
Felicitations! Most happy news.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-05-30 18:23 EST
Thank you guys!

For a quick update - The dying laptop is now in the hands of Best Buy. Should not take too long to see what the problem is, but for now, I have little access to a computer. Should be posting some this weekend, but the chances of being in live RP are slim, and I will not be on my AIM until the laptop is returned.

Thanks for the patience!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-06-14 05:59 EST
I'm afraid I have been horrible to you all. Really.

You see, I had planned on doing something to explain Storm's absence.

But then I had an eight hour hunt for my passport. It was absolutely horrendous.

But, long story short, I found it, and I am going to be in London until the end of June. I probably will have no time for posting, so let me explain in very vague detail what I did not get to do:

Storm has moved everything out of the Isis Manor, letting Erin know that she was going to be out of town for a few weeks.

She dropped off a letter to Yearling Brook Manor, giving Ewan the most specific details of her leave. Though Sylvia gave her troubling news that they have not heard from him in quite some time.

I'm not going to explain the rest, because I plan on doing it when I get home. PROMISE!

Take care all.

Lydia Loran

Date: 2007-06-14 06:50 EST
No worries. :)

Have a safe and fun trip!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-06-30 21:17 EST
Despite all of the crazy things that have happened in London (for those of you who watch the news) I have arrived safe and sound.

I should be posting maybe tonight, and will be fully up and running on Monday.

Thanks a million!

Lydia Loran

Date: 2007-06-30 22:30 EST
I don't watch the news so much. T_T

Glad you're okay though.

Am very glad you're back. I've missed ya. :)

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-07-02 08:53 EST
Thanks L :D

Anyway, "When Dreams Begin" is pretty self explanitory, Storm starts having dreams of the past two weeks. Consider it a different way of explaining my time away.

DevilishOne

Date: 2007-07-02 14:45 EST
Welcome back.

Glad you arrived saftly in London-consitering all the crazyness thats been going on.

Stay safe.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-07-10 15:40 EST
For those of you whom are following along..

'Transition, Phase II' is just like the other Transition threads, {The first in the Scathachian Sanctuary, the second in Isis Manor) and explains random tidbits of her day, thoughts, etc.

In the Sonnet 44 folder, I have started 'Time Set Aside" which is a thread of Storm's time spent with Ewan during his ill state. I wanted to create my own thread, simply because I am finding a lot to do with it, and did not want to add confusion by tagging it along other threads.

Thanks!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-07-10 17:16 EST
And one more thing:

Many have agreed with me that Charlize Theron is not the best person to represent Storm - I think it is time to find someone else to better display her.

Sooo.. any suggestions? I'm all for it!

Assadar

Date: 2007-07-19 01:05 EST
Why hello everyone. Storm-mun has kept you updated on all of the wild adventures we have had over the past few months, and I apologize for being gone for so long, but with finals, then engagement, then London, it has been a little hectic. I am back now however, safe and sound, and as you can see, Assadar has already begun his journey back. Thursday 7/26- Monday 7/30, Storm-mun and I will be in WA for 5 days visiting family. I will make Assadar's appearance into Rhy'Din then, but I felt it would be a few weeks of journeying for him anyhow, so why not take that time while I am gone and what not. Anyhow, i is good to be back, and see yah soon!

Lydia Loran

Date: 2007-07-23 00:01 EST
Gaaaaaaaaaaah! I totally didn't notice this OOC thinger here about the changing of the Charlize.

I thought she worked for Storm. :( *protests*

And it is good that *both* of you are back safe and sound Assadar. :)

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-07-23 03:02 EST
I'm sorry! I promise I'll keep the old pictures up and posted. I'm working on a website for Storm, and will also post some old and new pictures there. I like the "new" Storm because she has a very ageless face, and I don't have to change the skin color.... :(

I still don't know if she is "THE ONE" but it will do for now...

Not all of us can draw our charries... which I love the comic book editness.

Lydia Loran

Date: 2007-07-23 06:25 EST
"THE ONE" puts this image in my mind, that involves the screaming of "There can be only one! Yargh!" from someone atop a mountain, which makes me giggle. XD

Not having to change skin color is a good thing. That's always one of the things that annoys me most, like, when coloring a B&W or something. Never ever wanna touch skin color cuz I always screw it up, or make them all unsaturated and undead looking. :\

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-07-23 12:11 EST
You know what? That is exactly what I meant when I said "The One".... screaming my agony from the mountaintops *grin*

And yes, I completely agree.. whenever I changed the skin color on Charlize, the color always came out very dead and dull.. not have to change it really helps with that issue.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-07-24 20:47 EST
Just a few quick announcements:

I have posted a website on Storm's profile. It is very basic and HARDLY ready to be shown with pride, but it is my first time experimenting with this sort of thing, and any advice, comments.. yadda yadda.. would be appreciated.

Also, as Assadar-mun stated earlier, we are both going to be out of town this Thursday through Monday, and will not get any opportunities to post until we come home.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-08-02 14:17 EST
Few random tidbits:

I've decided to keep 'The Dreams Begin' open, even though I FINALLY feel like I've given enough events to get the general idea of her time with the Blood Elfs. I like the idea of using this thread to reflect other things in her past, so.. we'll see how that goes.

As for Storm meeting with Assadar, that even takes place the night of August 1/morning of August 2. We haven't had a chance to play it out yet, so I'm going to continue in other threads, but just to give you a rough idea of what's going on.

I've worked on the website more... still not complete, but it's much better.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-08-30 00:15 EST
Random Update:

Due to starting classes again (ugh) and my laptop taking a turn for the worse, I may be MIA for the next week or two.

My apologies, I promise I'll try to make up for it.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-09-03 11:49 EST
Unexpected Words happen on the night of September 2nd.

Still without a laptop, but I should have no trouble being around more often... soo... yeah.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-09-07 17:25 EST
I'm out camping this weekend so.... definitely will not be around till Sunday night. I plan to catch a few things up by then.

Peace!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-09-14 14:17 EST
Okay, just some random news to share:

I plan on being around more often now, but I was at the hopital for six hours yesterday with a cyst rupture (definitely not fun.)

Anyway, the point is that I have new medicine that I'm not sure how I will react... so if at any point I seem random and leave.. now you know why.

Lydia Loran

Date: 2007-09-14 14:34 EST
Ack!

I hope you're doing better now though? :(

And no worries about poofing or anything silly like that. You take care of yourself! Your health is much MUCH more important than some game.

Erinalle Dunbridge

Date: 2007-09-14 15:20 EST
I hope you feel better soon!!

we miss you and love you and can't wait for you to be healthy and happy.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-10-06 22:31 EST
Just in case some of you are wondering...

All of the posts for the ceremony are under the folder of Sonnet 44.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-10-09 01:47 EST
I locked 'Transition Phase III' for what I think, are self-explanatory reasons. New style of life, blah blah blah.

But, I think I will start up another soon, I like the ability to post the random daily things in one place.

Elessaria

Date: 2007-10-10 04:37 EST
Ouchie! Ruptured cyst? You poor thing. I hope you're fully recovered now!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-10-11 16:17 EST
So, today I found out that I have gastroesophageal reflux disease (more commonly known as acid reflex) and/or a stomach ulcer.

You know, the past few months have certainly not been fun health-wise.

Lydia Loran

Date: 2007-10-11 16:58 EST
You certainly haven't been having a good time of things lately... 0.o

Sorry to hear that. :\ But it's something that's treatable though, right? I really hope you recover and feel better quickly.

Oh, yuck! I'm sorry to hear how rough it's been for you. Health problems, well... they suck.

I'm relieved they have a diagnosis and hope your treatment will get you feeling better soon!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-10-19 22:39 EST
Some of the best news of the past few months!

Due to the amount of problems I had with my laptop, Best Buy decided to give me a new one that is MUCH better than my previous one. No more long days at the library!

Another quick update:

For those of you watching the news and watching all the crazy fires down here in SoCal, I just want to reassure that me and mine are safe. We are in a random pocket that isn't effected, though there is a fire a handful of miles away that could easily become an issue.

Of course, if there is any news, I'll let you guys know.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-10-29 01:08 EST
Soo... "Moments to Gather" is a thread on interactions between Jeremiah and Storm while in Rhy'Din. The formatting is subject to change, but I'll try to keep a time line to avoid mass confusion. Thus, the second 'meeting' is on October 29th in the morning.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-11-30 13:46 EST
Soo... I have tried to go back and fix a lot of things that needed updates, like the Character and Location Stickys. I think my goal for this next week to is clean up a lot of items in the folder... as well as fix the NUMEROUS typos that I have made and let slide.

It's going to be a long week.

And just on a completely random side note - I'm really interested to see all the different stories going on in the Marketplace.

Kudos to everyone who is participating.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-12-12 01:33 EST
The thread 'Before the Ceremony' is rather self-explanatory. However, I am not sure how the format is going to work.

Do not be surprised if first post changes.

... that is all!

Jeremiah Pahadz

Date: 2007-12-13 13:41 EST
After much discussion, the thread 'Before the Ceremony' has changed.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-12-16 19:28 EST
Sorry some of the threads have lost their pace, this weekend has been crazy.

Things should pick up again tomorrow.

Thanks!

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-12-22 17:14 EST
Umm... the last post under "Transition Phase IV" was supposed to be posted a few days ago.

But you know, it happens.

Another quick note:

A lot of the players here are going to be busy with the next week or so, either with work or with family visiting. However, though the threads may fall behind, it is my personal challenge to at least finish them.

So, the Yuletide thread starts on the 23rd, and will eventually finish on the 24th.

Sorry for the confusion.

Storm Divine

Date: 2007-12-30 11:38 EST
Okay, I just have to thank several people for making last night an absolute riot!

Piper, Peredhil, S'jira, Eless, Connar and Co.

I think I was laughing for hours!

Thank you all for wonderful playing time!

Storm Divine

Date: 2008-01-01 04:14 EST
Happy New Year!

So, I have officially decided that my goal for this folder is to.. organize! I will no longer have threads that really just go on.. and on... and on...

Huzzah for meaningful threads!

The "Choosing Ceremony" thread will not take place until Saturday, January 26th. It is starting early in hopes to finish by this date so that everyone whom is involved may participate.

Thanks!

Devin Archon

In Dance of Flames, Devin is performing his chosen martial art, capoeira. It can be an amazing sight to see, and if you have never had the chance, I'm providing the links to a few videos on YouTube that are particularly good examples of the form. Keep in mind when watching that for sparring and for competitions, the object is not to hit your opponent - it is to demonstrate the ability to hit the opponent and still withdraw "completion".

The first video, here , is a group practicing the roda, the circle, casually.

The second video, here , is a competition taking place formally.

The final video, here , is a compilation video of Mestre Espirro Mirim, one of the acknowledged world masters of capoeira.

There are thousands more clips out there, but those are three that give a good idea of what the heck is going on in that circle of Devin's. ;)

"Bonds of Blood" Took place this past Saturday, April 5th. Much thanks to Storm-mun and Devin-mun for the extensive planning and playing!

And on another subject entirely, Storm and myself will be in Hawaii from April 11-15, but Devin and Jeremiah are still around for pestering!

Wow, so epic fail on the timeliness front, but it's finally done and up! Snap takes place immediately (and I do mean immediately) after Aftermath, and would never have been written without the amazing play of Paola's mun. Enjoy! I'm getting back in writing track, I swear.

Hallo everyone!

My laptop is currently in the hands of Best Buy.. again. Hopefully it's only a motherboard issue, and it will be up and running in no time.

For now however, my online times will be random, if at all. So I apologize for being behind in posts and possibly leaving some SLs unfinished.

Storm Divine

Date: 2011-01-14 12:40 EST
With all of of the threads for the Yransea expansion happening in different places, I thought I'd post up some links in case anyone is missing the progression.

Building a Bridge
Escape Hatch
Bridge Design
Turning Tables

I will keep adjusting this post when new threads are added.

Storm Divine

Date: 2011-03-28 02:10 EST
I am still here! While you're all waiting for some new stuff to show up here in the next few days, please check out the latest in the Yransea SL if you haven't already!

Just a quick note - I have every intention of continuing this folder! Between the end of a semester and moving, things have just been lacking creativity and time lately. However, I'm working on picking up Neutral Ground and will have something up by the end of the week!
