Ah, why the hell not? I need to turn my karma around anyway. :D
 
Compliments and something:
 
Syrian - I like the way you role-play and I don't think I met anyone better at pickle management than you;
Lintara - You are so positive and plain kind all the time that I always saw you like one of those rare blessings;
Dst - Seriously, woman. Thank you for the books. Whenever I have time, I devour them and oddly enough they keep me sane;
Sunfire -  I always enjoyed our talks. Great skill in keeping up with the topic and bringing different perspective;
Eara - Thank you for showing me such great friendship and bringing me back to reality and slapping wild and wide smiles to my face;
Aeoshattr - Great humor and manners. Honestly, thank you for the laughs and teaching me more diplomacy than I already knew;
Asthir - Great stalking skills. You use well every method I taught you. :D Also,everybody beware! He is a horrible competitor in quests if he has the proper time to participate. (yes, this is a compliment);
Nimrodel - Very creative. You had some of the most enjoyable quests and you are very funny no matter if tired or well rested;
Ary and his Endleg - Has a great mind pattern and can adapt to probably any type of situation or subject. You go, Ary!
 
I'll probably add more as my memory starts to poke me again. 

If only I had a male character... 
It's awesome! Aeo will probably freak out over it. :D

Maybe Asthir too. If he so desires.

Dear Mr A Corn,
 
Leaving aside your flawed belief that things which shouldn't have been said even exist, I wish to inform you that Acoustic Remains has an extra filter you should have been aware of: the caster. What reaches you is what the caster wants you to see. It's similar to what you see on television, actually... just one big conspiracy meant to keep the truth away from you by tying you down to a few tons worth of weight and throwing you in the murkiest pool of lies out there.
 
A simpler way of looking at it would be to realize that we're talking about Acoustic *Remains* = bits of information which can be placed in different contexts to fit the agenda of whomever spreads them.
 
 
Best wishes,
GCA (Global Conspiracies Anonymous)

Tree Dude is finished. I shall call him Evil Bob.

Well. I rarely draw, but I happened to be in the mood to draw today and I felt this kind of belongs here

I'll post more in this topic if the mood ever strikes me again. Might post older artwork too? I dunno.
Hope you peeps enjoy.

Because I was bored, I decided to type this up in more of a story form, as there were both a few things I realized as I was going would sound better if worded differently, and there were also a few things that I simply couldn't word the way I wanted because it had to be put in the form of me doing something. The original story was surprisingly  coherent, considering it was made up as I went, but I'll let you be the judge of how believable it actually is.
 
A brief warning, this ignores 90% of MD's actual lore regarding drachorns, and should read as a story, nothing more. And, without further adoo, here it is:
 
 
Orvid approaches the house slowly, holding something covered by a cloth in his right hand, then turns to face the crowd, standing just in-front of the old building. Clearing his throat, he begins, "We have gathered here today, not to mutate a drachorn, but to purify it". This proclamation shocks the crowd, so he begins to tell a story.
 
"Long ago, the drachorns were hunted down and ruthlessly killed, until all but one remained. This lone drachorn is who we will come to know as the Original. She was the prisoner of a Golemus wizard, who performed many experiments upon it, each one resulting in a small change in her DNA. She endured many an experiment, but, over time, it became too much for her, and she eventually collapsed. As the wizard had no use for a weak creature that couldn't even stand up to a few little experiments, he threw it out. On this particular day, there was a storm brewing, so, even in her severely weakened state, she knew she had to find shelter. Ever so slowly, she crawled towards the cliffs, where she knew there must be caves within which she could find shelter. At last, she arrived, and, once inside one such cave, promptly collapsed, and fell into a deep sleep.
 
"Now, she didn't realize it at the time, but this particular cave was home to something else as well, the tiny men. Seeing such a terrifying creature in such a weakened state, they realized they had a chance to take the magnificent beast. Quickly, they concocted a plan to imprison it, while nursing it back to health. As soon as they were sure she was asleep, they acted, tying the creature down with hundreds of ropes, so that she couldn't hurt them. Ever so carefully, they treated the great creature's wounds, nursing it back to health. In time, she became a great friend of the tiny men, who continued to aide it whenever they could.
 
"When the time came for her to lay her eggs, there was no safer place for them but with the tiny men. Even to this day, the tiny men still care for the eggs of the drachorns."
 
"Those eggs, however, are impure! They contain the DNA of the Original after having been experimented upon by the wizard!" Orvid declares, "Today we shall purify one of these creatures, to return it to its rightful form!" Noting a bit of disbelief in the crowd, he says, "Think what you will of the story my friends, but now you shall see the proof".
 
Orvid removes the cloth covering the thing he's been holding in his right hand, revealing it to be an egg. "I have here, an egg of a descendent of the Original". He then takes out a steel spike, while carefully shifting the egg to his left hand. "And now, observe carefully". Quietly, Orvid starts chanting something. Ever so slowly, the chanting gets faster and faster, louder and louder, until at last, he yells, "Purifica această fiară!" Immediately upon yelling this, he throws the egg up in the air, and makes as if to slice the egg in two with the, now glowing, steel spike. Instead of splitting in two, as the spike exits the bottom of the egg, it takes with it a black goop.
 
Quickly, Orvid catches the egg with his left hand, casting the, no longer glowing, goop-covered spike aside. He then takes out a pillow, setting the egg on it, and steps back. "Now the real magic happens", he declares.
 
The egg then starts to glow red, followed very quickly by many other colors, all swirling together. As the egg starts to glow, a small wind starts up, and, as the swirling colors grew ever more violent, the wind picks up, and the ball of swirling colors starts to grow, encompassing the pillow upon which the egg rested. The light gets brighter, the wind louder, and the swirling of the colors more violent. Ever so slowly, what looks like a creature begins to form in the center of the swirling mass.
 
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning comes down from the sky, striking the very center of the swirling mass. Instantly, the light dies, the colors vanish, and it becomes dead silent, the wind having stopped.
 
Having been knocked down by the shockwave caused by the lightning strike, Orvid stands back up carefully, and approaches the new hatchling, lifting it, still on the pillow, for the crowd to see. "I present to you, the original form of the drachorn!"
 
 
As a note for the sake of records, the ID of the drachorn used in this mutation is 828505. Should the story of it's birth ever be forgotten, it can now be rediscovered.

Happy birthday!

Jester's fun-eral dirge

"Let us raise our voices and sing
Of this greatly fallen king.
NAAAAAAH
Pass me another Fat-Tire
The poor sap is still on fire!
Much well loved, though a liar
Let us drink and piss on his pyre!"

Lament to Cutler

Another has gone and left,
a face that none shall ever forget.
I have heard great words about his work.
Though a chance to meet him, I shall not get.

Saddened is the realm at his departure,
but in our hearts he shall always be.
The words I speak cannot bring him back,
but it can help us all to see...

Stories will be told of Cutler,
stories that many will wish to hear.
For he was a friend to many a person,
and those memories...they will be held dear.

No more shall you observe the sun
Or gaze upon the moon
Your constellation's tale is done
Your sight no more attuned
 
Your memory lives on in those
Of us who can recall
And tell to those who haven't heard
The name of Bootes at all.

A gift was given, On the high seas
Crimson pennons encrusted with salt
The blades, the first family
Of a friend now found in final rest.

Many adventures were had, and questors aided
A mind as sharp as the spines upon his back
But amongst the adventures, the greatest of all
Started with a pocket, and some seeds.

Through all the roads, all the lands
We could find you, tending to your friends
But now it is we that tend you, and your roots
We would see you bloom, Awiiya.

A crisp wise soul that fortune favored
Many a man lost to his words wise
Creative skill that couldn't be measured
Finest guile, in skill he'd rise
The great kafuuka, remembered be
Sorely missed, he is to me.
