    Hello,

    I would suggest creating a new account if you don't want all of your posts to be shown (for whatever purpose).

    Eh, I have changed my mind. A lot of this is beginner stuff that just makes me cringe, but it is good to look at it and see how far I've come with my RP here on this server! After speaking with a few others, I will not be requesting any posts be deleted except, if possible, this one.

     

    Thanks,

    Mikhail would take note of this expedition, and having the hearty and adventurous spirit of his raevir ancestors, he'd send a letter to the man's residence.

    "I shall join, I can serve as a navigator, but It will come at a price; land equivalent to a small county if we do colonize Cascadia"

    "Perhaps," Tallyn writes back, "If you can prove yourself worthy of such land. If you can do such, I will suggest your request to the Emperor himself."

    "The Quest for Cascadia

    Dear Adventurer,

     

    Upon recent review of the Emperor's realm, it has come to my attention that the lands of Cascadia are  ungoverned, uncharted, and uncultivated by any man of the Imperial realm. Whilst patrolled by The Order of the Red Dragon, also dubbed Knights of Cascadia, this tundra that stands as the base of defense against Western aggression  needs settlers and a ruler who will help those uncharted lands grow and prosper! I, Tallyn Underfoot, wish to lead a expedition to Cascadia in order to claim leadership over the land, and I ask you to join me in my venture! Any man or woman who seeks greater lands, wish to govern cities or towns, or just wish to adventure in a new area, this parchment and request are for you.

     

    If you wish to join me in my quest for Cascadia, you may find me at my farms just outside of Felsen. When making your way to the main gate of the city, turn right and keep going until you find my humble lands, if you want to speak in person. If not, send me a bird letting me know that I might add you to the already growing roster!

     

    May The Creator Guide us in this Endeavor,

    x Tallyn Underfoot

     

    (OOC:) This group will consist of 15 - 20 men and women who wish to join me in going to Cascadia. If you feel a friend would wish to join, let them know as well! The more the merrier (and more successful! As said above, you can either meet me IC-ly and speak to Tallyn about this matter, or just leave a 'bird' here under this post! After reaching 10 men, we will be holding an IC meeting with another group who has agreed to join us upon reaching that number! You will be messaged with more details when the time comes! ^__^

    A bird lands on the shoulder of Thomas de Aryn as he sits at his desk, dropping a small letter into his lap...

     

    Dear Lord Thomas,

     

    My name is Tallyn Underfoot, a citizen of Felsen and the Imperial Empire. I was told by one of your guards that you did not have a Steward to serve your family and manage your funds, and I wish to offer myself for the position. I have worked as a Steward, of a sort, for an inn just outside of Felsen, and I am quite familiar with keeping books and managing the affairs of a large household.  If you will have me, I would be honored to join your house and help it to prosper! If you would like to meet me before deciding, do send me a letter. I am not very hard to find!

     

    Best of Wishes,

    x Tallyn Underfoot

  7. Hello Skinmakers!

     

    I need two skins of the following nature, using the head, skin color, and hair of the skin attached below:

     

    1) A wedding gown, of the winter variety. A good reference would be Sansa Stark's Northern Wedding dress for Game of Thrones Season 5

    2) Another gown, the colors being black and red.

     

    Once complete, you will be paid 300 mina for taking the time and effort to make these skins for me!

     

    Thanks,

  8. Hello!

     

    My persona, Phineas Warlai, has been stuck at age 15 for two in-game years now, and I am pretty sure I checked him off for automatic aging. If not, is there any way someone could go in and fix it for me? I would really appreciate it, since by now he would be 17 and it is hindering some of the things he is doing IC-ly.

     

    Thanks,

    Gwyn's Glass Garden

    A Glass-making Shop

    Established: 1551

     

    Gwyn's Glass Garden is the premier place to buy stained glass in Felsen, providing  sixteen different colors to Lords, Ladies, and Holy folk to help adorn and amplify their castles, keeps, and churches. Located in the wealthy Gold District of the city, this new shop is an ideal place for citizens to seek out well-made glass that is strong and colorful. Whilst they are not known for their window-making, the Warlai family has taken up the job, freeing themselves from their old Jewelry profession and stepping out into a new age!

     

    Colors:

    As of right now, Gwyn's Glass Garden provides the following in quality colored glass:

    Unstained Glass

    White

    Orange

    Light Blue

    Yellow

    Lime

    Pink

    Grey

    Silver

    Cyan

    Purple

    Blue

    Brown

    Green

    Red

    Black

     

    Commissions:

    Ser Phineas Warlai, owner of the shop, is taking commissions from noble Lords and Ladies, along with men of the Holy Church, to design and build opulent stained glass windows for their castles, keeps, and holy churches. Located just outside the Shop's door is a commission box, where you may write down your order and drop it in. If you seek a personal meeting & discussion about your request, send Ser Phineas Warlai a bird seeking such a meeting, he will respond as quickly as he can! Prices will be discussed during these meetings, along with scheduled days for design and placement!

     

     

    (OCC:) Due to a city official raiding and stealing from my home, this store is no longer going to be opened. I am contemplating leaving Felsen as a whole, due to this issue!

    With the stained glass window of the Imperial Office broken, Phineas Warlai and Vanessa Longridge guide Princess Catherine Francesca out onto a ledge, holding her with each arm. Hearing swords clanging and clattering together in the background and the door's of the Office being hammered at, they quickly nudge the distraught princess along, winding around towers and balconies.  A man shouts a few words at them, but they continue on, weapons drawn to shield their Princess from any harm. 

     

    They jump from the Palace battlements onto the roof of  the Tax Office, then jump between townhouses and manors until they reach the Painted Gate. "Did we lose them," Phineas asks Vanessa. "For now," she nods, "But we need to hide the Princess. Those killers are still at large.!" She turns to lead them back toward the city, but Catherine in hesitant. After some reassuring words and swearing of oaths, she nods quietly and goes with them, taking back alleyways to reach Vanessa's place of employment, the Felsen Medical Clinic. "You will be safe here," Vanessa reassures her, "But you mustn't leave until we tell you. They will kill you just for being Emperor John's sister." Phineas smiles to the Princess, the woman still in tears, and seats her in a secret area of the Clinic, where only Vanessa and Phineas can get access to.

     

    Hours later, after learning the fate of John Sigismund, Vanessa and Phineas return to find Catherine reading a book, perhaps a diary or a holy scripture. "My lady," the boy kneels, "His Imperial Majesty...has been killed." His eyes open wide as Catherine turns to look at the two, her eyes growing wide, then filling with tears. "I will go fetch the guard to escort you back to the Palace, my lady." Vanessa says, before exiting the room.

     

    Phineas goes to offer her a handkerchief to dry her eyes with, which she accepts meekly. "Princess, don't fear, for your sister Eleanor is safe. Your brother, Alexander, will be here soon as well." He nods, but then his face goes still. "I have...," he pauses, "I haven't heard anything about the Commandant, though."  Her head snapped around at that, her face almost filled with a sort of anger. She waves the boy away, turns back to her book and seemingly continues to read. It is only when he goes to guard the door and looks over his shoulder, that he notices tears hitting the tan pages of the book.

     

    (OOC): And there we have it! This is myself (JoelTheGinger) and LamentofShadow's account of our experience of what we're calling "The Storming of The Imperial Palace". Since Princess Catherine (DreamInSpace) disconnected during the storming, John Sigismund (dibliusmaximus/Cracker) gave us permission to continue the story without her, seemingly leading around an invisible princess. We hope to pick up the RP later tonight, March 18th, to escort the Princess back to the Palace and hopefully earn some thanks for saving her from Ivar Letholdus' murderous kin! ;-)

  11. Phineas Warlai winces at the thought of Emperor John's murder, but remains calm for Princess Catherine Francesca, whom he saved from the killers and is clearly distraught. "We must go back to the Palace now, Princess," he says, "Your brother Alexander will be joining you there soon!"

    "DRACARYS"

     

    So, for anyone in NYC today, March 15th, there will be TWO events in the city held in honor of the Game of Thrones Season 5 Blu-ray Release! In Union Square, there will be a "crash site" where one of Dany's dragons might have taken a left instead of a right and ended up in the United States. After this, at 7:30 p.m. in Herald Square (which is just a few blocks away), they will be screening a special bonus feature from the Blu-ray for fans to come and enjoy!

     

    Hope those of you in NYC will consider going, it looks like it's going to be a fun night!

     

     

  13. Phineas II Warlai

    54eb0ca525e0dbfbcef2b4d7482a423c.jpg

    Basic Information:

    Name: Phineas Warlai, the Second.

    Age: 17

    Gender: Male

    Race: Human (Heartlander)

     

    Biography:

    Phineas Warlai was born to Phineas Warlai sr. and his wife, Evelyn, in 1534 during "The Amber Cold". He was raised, for around eight years of his life, in the Copper District of Felsen, his father slowly building up a fortune in selling jewelery. After taking a loan from a Dark Elf merchant, Phineas Warlai was killed for not repaying the debt, thus forcing the family to flee the city. Whilst Evelyn thought it safe to keep their eldest child, Gwyn, with her, she decided to have Phineas II fostered at a farm a days ride from where they lived, hoping to conceal his identity and hide him from the guards.

     

    After learning how merchants trade, then learning from soldiers how to use a sword and bow, Phineas II returns to Felsen on his fifteenth birthday, to meet his sister once more. Having heard from a passing guardsman that she was employed at the Imperial Palace, he seeks her out there. However, to his anguish, he discovers she has killed herself, the cause unknown to him. He thus takes up her fortune and home in the city, pledging himself to the Emperor, who says he may be knighted if he can prove himself as a member of the Felsen Watch. After a year in the Watch and earning a knighthood for saving a Imperial Princess from a group of rebels, Phineas leaves the city in search of  better position, finding such at the court of Baron Jory Marbrand in Vandoria and renouncing his knighthood and citizenship in the Orenian Empire. 

     

    Personality:

    Phineas is a people-pleaser at best, always saying what he thinks will make his mentor's and master's happy. Whilst not as ambitious as his sister, he does wish for the finer things in life and seeks a knighthood, perhaps a title coming not to far after. He is kind to most people, he feels he is obligated to help those who need it most.

     

    Strengths:

    Good with a bow, Intelligent, Ambitious, Strong, Diplomatic

     

    Weaknesses:

    Too timid around strangers, Brooding, Often spends too much Mina

     

    Appearance:

    Phineas stands at 5'8, slightly tall for his age, and has tanner skin than his sister did due to his work as a farmhand. He has deep green eyes, which are very wide and large, and has a mop of thick, coarse black hair.

     

    Family and Relationships:

    Phineas Warlai sr. - Father - Deceased

    Evelyn Warlai (nee' Underfoot) - Mother - Alive

    Gwyn Warlai - Older Sister - Deceased

     

    Duke Jan Kovachev - Former Guardian - Alive

    Gwyn Warlai ran, sobbing, through the streets of Felsen, her gown in tatters and her body covered in bruises. Her tears blinded her vision, but she knew where she was going. "Saint Daniel," she whispered to herself, "Saint Daniel." Dirt stained her skirt hem, her hair was wildly tangled as she flew up to the church steps, took one last look at the city, and ran inside.

     

    Up and up she climbed, circling the rope which the churchmen would use to ring the great bell, announcing a new day or a joyous occasion. When she reached the top, she stopped to catch her breathe. Soiled. she thought, I am soiled. She strode across the room and flung open the great wooden shutters that enclosed the bell. This is for good. I am no lady now, nor was I ever. She thought of her friends, especially Mylas and Renee de Aryn. Will they miss me? Most likely not. She stepped up onto the sill and looked down. It will last only a moment.

     

    As Gwyn flung herself from the bell tower, her foot hit the rim of the bell, letting out a great bellow. They will know now, this bell rings also..for my death.

     

    RIP

    "Lady" Gwyn Warlai

    1529 - 1550

     

    (OOC): I hope you all enjoyed her, for the time she was around. I intend to play as her brother now, so look out for Phineas II Warlai in Felsen. For those who want more of a reason, I  am just not good at playing female characters as nobles, being a male myself. I have tried it in other games, to be gender neutral, but it hasn't ever worked for me other than making female thieves and maids! Being that this happened, I thought it a good time to change characters. See you all on the server, I will look a bit different now ^__^

     House Warlai

    "Our unguibus praecissis acutum"

    "Our Talons Cut Sharp"

     

    Established: 1525

    Current Head: Phineas Warlai II

     

    History:

    Not much is known of this mysterious house, not even their ennoblement is recorded in history and by which King it was given. House Warlai began with a jeweler, and that is how they have stayed for, it is estimated, at least 100 years. A simple merchant house, they have moved from city to city, finally setting down roots in Felsen, capitol of the Holy Oren Empire. Being known for their intricate metalwork and good choice of jewels, they have sold to some of the finest lords and ladies in the realm. Until around 10 years ago, they had heard that Phineas Warlai, the previous head, was making progress in the city and becoming a famed jeweler in his own right. But, however, he vanishes after that point, the news of his daughter Gwyn returning to the city only recently reaching the ears of low-ranking nobles and bar-goers who may have purchased jewelry in a time long past.

     

    Discovered Information:

    1550 - Phineas II Warlai, brother to Gwyn Warlai, is the youngest son of Phineas Warlai and his wife, Evelyn Underfoot. After most records of his birth were hidden away, researchers have uncovered that the boy, in fact, went missing around 1543 at the age of 9. Whilst search parties were formed, they proved ill and the boy was never found, his mother eventually requesting for him to be removed from the family tree and forgotten. Gwyn was told he was murdered at the time, not knowing that nothing was confirmed or denied & that her brother might still be out there.

     

    Gwyn Warlai is found dead at the foot of the Church of Saint Daniel, having flung herself from the bell tower in grief. Her body was removed and buried soon after, the embalmers determining that she had been assaulted by a group of men, whom forced themselves upon her in the street.

     

    Phineas II Warlai is returned at last, his mother sending him away secretly to save him from being murdered like his father when he was younger. With his golden eagle pin, he is easily identified and brought to Maer Mylas, who informs him of his sister's death and his own inheritance.

     

     

    1551 - Phineas is named a recruit of the Felsen Watch, but leaves after a year due to his own person being knighted for rescuing a Imperial Princess. However, a few months after being knighted, he joins the court of Baron Jory Marland and the Kingdom of Vandoria, giving up his knighthood and citizenship in the Empire.

     

    1552 - (To Be Written)

     

    Heraldry:

    The arms of House Warlai are quite simple, a two-headed golden eagle on a white background. It is said that this was inspired by a famed necklace the original Warlai jeweler made for an old king's queen, the dresses she wore when donning the necklace always being white satin and lace.

     

    Family Tree (Incomplete as of 1552):

    Phineas Warlai (1500 - 1537) m. Evelyn Underfoot with two issue: Gwyn Warlai, born in 1529 & Phineas Warlai II, born in 1538. The former commited suicide, the later lives in the countryside of Felsen.

    1) Gwyn Warlai (1529 - 1550) Not Wed, No Issue. Death by Suicide

    2) Phineas Warlai II, (1534 - Present) Not Wed, No Issue.

     

    Other Relations:

    Tallyn Underfoot (1516 - Present) Not Wed, No Issue

     

                                                                                                                             

     

    (OOC): To clarify, this family is no longer noble. They title themselves "Lord" & "Lady" due to pride. If asked, they will tell you they are forgotten and hold no lands. This "history" of sorts will progress as Phineas learns more about his family, so this page will eventually be filled with more knowledge on this old, forgotten house.

    Not currently recruiting, this is just for show.
