So, had to clean my room today for the first time in... nevermind that, but I open my dresser drawer whose contents I had apparently forgotten and find the following sight. It rather made my day. :D

@Quiet
What is stopping Tarja from either
A) Trimming the Antlers
or
B) Have the skull of a deer with not-fully-developed antlers - perhaps a companion of her past, or something.

@Suze - Gods, I wish I had that many blades.
@Galla - What is the background on your most lovely avatar.

Lawtan that's my junk drawer, I have about 100 various medieval weapons lying around my room. :P

O.O
*Suze is now considered rich in my book*

Most of them were like $20, it's not as much as you might think. And I've been collecting them for 10 years now. :P

The only nice ones I have are a... decent katana (as in it actually has a tang with nails holding it together and not a rat tail), one of the LotR swords, the Wheel of Time heron marked sword, and my Black Prince I just got for my birthday.

Oh, and... this thing...



...which I may or may not have stabbed through my thigh when I was 17....

*Is drooling over that right now*
@Galla - umm...all of the above

Indonesian Autumn Adder
*coughs* Hell-snake *coughs*

...as an odd question, what would fish-boy's relation to your current avatar be?

...I was mainly wondering if he would eat your snake-like avi...

*is waiting to resurrect Dante >_> ^_^*

Uh. Do I have to post?

Oh...I think it is Espy's, or mine...

Well, either one, or both, seeing Dante in the ether watching Thomas resurrect him is sure to be worth reading. Kind of need a response from Kadia to Thomas, too before I can start.

I have no idea what I'm doing with Tarja, but I'm not really sure where she fits in the group dynamic yet. I'll scribble up something for her but it shouldn't affect what happens with Dante, Thomas, and Kadia.

I'm not entirely sure /what/ he's supposed to be feeling/seeing if anything at all.

(Also, my sixth grade teacher -- wasn't /my/ teacher, but he led a lot of the comm service stuff I was in -- passed away today, so I'm not sure if I'm emotionally up for a post.)

...
*Hugs Espy*

It's fine. I'm fine. Wasn't that close to him anyhow.

So, hypothetically... if one day I was to start another RP, a dystopian post-Arthurian war fantasy, would anyone be interested? Would basically be a crazy mix-up of historical periods (i.e. Charlemagne's paladins joining Jeanne d'Arc in a crusade against Logres). I have a ton of reading to do for it, though, so it'd be months from now at the least.

Perhaps. I'd need to do research, though. And I won't have too much time between now and....a while from now.

Also, my question-of-sorts from above?

I'd be interested, though I'd need to do a pile of reading myself. My knowledge of actual historical -or pretend historical- stuff pertaining to such things is pretty shoddy.

Oh, sorry Espy, I imagine he'd still be able to see auras? For a while at least, since he's freshly expired. Or he might have crazy hallucinations? I kind of vote for this since it would be more fun. :P

Okay, so, wait. Where would his soul be? I'm going to assume that if he's hallucinating /now/, he'll be able to have visual hallucinations because he's free from the constraints of his own body.

Didn't he have his eyes burned? He should be capable of visual hallucinations from his brain too, no? And his soul is pretty close considering he *just* died.

...Crap. I meant that if he was going to be /seeing things/ as in everything that's going on around him, he should be able to do so.

...I can't brains right now. I've slept for 12+ hours today and I'm still tired.

Oh. Well honestly, you can play it however you want. He probably would be "aware" of the scene going on, not sure I'd call it "sight", but the approximation to the spiritual medium. Close enough.

Cool. Will attempt to post tomo--

...today. /Later/ today.

How long has Dante been blind? I have this image of him suddenly freaking out because he can see again and he's not used to it, especially if what he's seeing is getting messed up.

...Why do I sleep through the interesting convos...
@Suze - Hell, yes! (Been reading on the Tuatha de Danann, Arthurian legends (their theorized origins), and Nordic/Germanic mythology...
Also Egyptian, Native American, Ugaritic, and the classical Greco-roman...
...Sorry, got overexcited at the prospect of a non-biblical/non-LotR RP. Only way you could get a larger reaction (I'd be jumping like a lunatic) would be an RP on the Sea with 17th century pirates and the mixed mythos/tech of the sea.

Heh, it's okay. You might be able to help me when I get to setting down the details, not sure what all I want to do with magic and such yet. I kind of want to include Norse stuff, too, not positive yet though.

For about fifteen years, but Nalsa did a thing last RP. Also, that he sees auras would lessen the impact. Dreamig also happens visually.


HNNRK.

Ogma vs. Heimdall! Galahad can watch from the sidelines.

I know the material was aimed at teen readers, but see Everworld. Pretty much all the old gods tired of earth and packed up, and created another. So you've got Vikings fighting Aztecs and Zeus battling against Odin and things like that. Was actually slightly metal for a young reader's series, if I remember right. Been about a decade.

But yeah, I'd be in Suze.

Sorry for the overly-mopey post. Probably affected by the couple of emotional breakdowns I had over the past week (I'm fine now, seriously).

Espy, I was thinking Dante might have a mental impairment to his vision as well as the physical so that even if the resurrection healed the burns to his eyes, his brain might need further heeling to be able to see, which Thomas isn't skilled enough to provide.

Or anything you'd like to go with, just a suggestion.

Umm...isn't a time component required - the restoration of a blind man (naturally blind, not burned) has taken 6 months -> a year for his brain to start seeing colors and make out blurry shapes. That was after a few months of surgery...
So, unless it is a purely magical matter, it would take time for Dante's brain to adjust to having sight.
At least...according to an article I read.
