[OOC Thread] In The Nest

[Schism]

Ladies and gentlemen of Zinrah, hold your applause but I have returned to the OOC chat with great bounty... Well, not quite, but here's what's up! We have locations and NPCs coming in, and what have you, but the world be sort of lonely in the mean time. I can surround myself with all of these lovely NPCs but I require you to involve yourself with them (AND ME!!!). So, I'm just here to remind you my office is open for grading and ~moderation~ requests, the later of the two looking highly appetizing if some PCs are in need of a challenge. I do repeat, a challenge, whatever form it takes I'll try my best to push your PCs buttons. I think that's how character development works, riiiight? [head scratchin']. I do recall Sal I think wanting to play around with the snakelings? I can totally take you on a journey through the jungle, mate. For sake of me having a reminder, request the moderated thread in my office! Others who are looking for some extra oomph, also post there! Keep in touch, lovelies. OOC is OOC, chat it up!

Oops, didn't see this. Posted in your office.

Modded thread noted and under construction. We can hopefully begin this week. If anyone else is interested, please join Sal in the office on his notice, or leave a note here in the OOC! You will be in for a bumpy ride...

So, Zinrah babies, I have some lovely news to share with you, as well as some shameless self bumpery of what has been accomplished. So, reflecting back on the forum for Zinrah about a month ago, I’d guess, you’d not notice too much. There were threads, the tunnels, the profile, but otherwise fairly barren. Then I came along, looked at Mish, and went to work. It has been a while, and I’ve had my share of interruptions (wisdom teeth pulled, kept me out a week, and then I had a vacation the immediate week after my swelling went down!), but it is done…for now. The point is, if you take a look at Zinrah’s wiki, and then the forum, you’ll see a lot of blanks filled up. We’re not done yet, folks. So, some gloating and hopefully a “job well done” to come my way. This is just the start. I’ve brought us up to date, but now we get to move forward with the rest of the active domains. First order of business, our official link map: Link Map! No location without a link. I’ve added a user friendly navigate back to the link map for those who have problems with back buttons. I can imagine on phones, sometimes the figners can be difficult to use in clicking back! xD I have that problem with an “ipad” sort of thing…so you imagine. I also wish to redirect you to the NPC library once more: NPC Cast Behold, a woman of great beauty, wisdom…and talent (for trouble, lol; YES, that is Cher! Get the talent pun now? Haha? Hehehe...). I mean to turn your attention to Sshnahiari, Former Queen Regent, and Former Head Priestess. She’s a character that will come up in a few of Zinrah’s plots in the future. Take a look over her write up and you’ll see what I mean. Her daughter, Head Priestess Hiarisspanyin is under the works, folks. We’re officially “caught up” at such point. I’ll be slaving away to give her form. Nothing like molding the three most known faces in the nest, right? This is big guys. Players take a look at the forum, see it empty and sometimes get discouraged, but we’ve fixed that now. I want to thank the player base that has stuck with Zinrah for what it was, and hope you feel a bit rewarded for such. I’m open to your ideas, but you need to voice them to me. Moderated threads are available to those who ask. I cap myself at a not so solid number, so be sure you’re racing for the office to make your claim! We might be small in numbers, but we are mighty in our hearts. Small, but mighty! Thank you all for your encouragement and approval. You know who you are. I hope you look at the domain coming together with a smile. Now then, Dhani brethren, let us show the world what it means to be a constrictor. Be the leaders and role models, for you will inspire others and your own network of players in Zinrah will grow. Keep it classy guys. Truly yours, Schism

So I was taking a second look at this modded thread write up. I'm looking for any last minute volunteers for a trek through the Jungle Wilds in search of a Dhani snakeling. Salar is our PC cast so far. Thank for volunteering, btw. I'm closing this window of opportunity at about, eh, 7-8 tonight before I go ahead and start up for Salar. Like I said..."last minute" haha.

If you missed this thread, that's A-okay, just pop in my office and make a new summer request. A heads up on what I'm looking at: I should run a minimum of two per season, so please, show interest. I love to push your PC's buttons.

Edit: we're getting started, so any late entries need to PM me directly. I want to check with the involved PCs if we are to make further additions. Check my office to make your own submissions though.

[Kara Sunderwater]

Hehe, the fun begins. Begin the button mashing!

[Schism]

Hi lovlies, I have some news. I'll be gone from July 28 until August 4th.

This gives you a week's advance to submit anything you desperately need graded before then. Otherwise I'm going to do my best with threads to time them for maximum posting ability. For example, in Save Your Own Skins, I think I can get to a... "check point" before the week's out for Salar and Pelham to manage themselves.

The office is fairly barren... If anyone else is up for ST love, send a request to my office, or I'll just have to hunt you down.

Can I start getting some feedback on Zinrah too? How are the new locations and NPCs? What are we looking for? What do we want? What do we (and Falyndar) need? Be critical and concise; let's get it done right the first time.

I know I have two NPCs I want to get up this week to give Zinrah more color.

Oh I know... duh. PCs living in Zinrah, if you'd be so kind: please format and design your own 20x20 cave dwellings! It's a small community, and I'd like to know what you have in your possession because I'm creepy like that. It also lets me play a little more with STing stuff... Be very afraid.

PC dwellings should look something like the Zinrah locations. Feel free to give it some personal flair. Don't forget the glowstones (they're so pretty). If you really just have an empty cave, then we'll work on that. Zinrah's more than a "city" to some PCs, it's home, so let's make it feel that way, k? K!

Schism, out!

[Kara Sunderwater]

How do you want the dwellings to be posted? As a JPG on our CS?

[Schism]

You can put them into your CS as a personal track of what's contained within. If you'd like, however, I can take them and paste in to our link map as your private residence. This way, when you're asleep at night, and some murderous crazed NPC comes ino your room with a hatchet, we have a more descript location for it. Not that that'd ever happen, just...

I think it add more character to Zinrah in resembling the PCs who dwell there, and as your dwellings change, you'll have somewhere to show things off and such. Honestly, who wants to just sit around in a barren cave?
