OOC Info [Riverfall OOC] Where Gods Abide

Any and all OOC chatter welcome here!

(This is a thread from Mizahar's fantasy role play forums. Why don't you register today? This message is not shown when you are logged in. Come roleplay with us, it's fun!)

Built into the cliffs overlooking the Suvan Sea, Riverfall resides on the edge of grasslands of Cyphrus where the Bluevein River plunges off the plain and cascades down to the inland sea below. Home of the Akalak, Riverfall is a self-supporting city populated by devoted warriors. [Riverfall Codex]

Hey Leo!

You are welcome so long as you don't you know loose it and level the city. As the only PC in the game that can do that without a thought, feel free to uh... not do that while you visit. Everything else is up for grabs. And its a good time to join because we have some great things planned for next season that you and the rest of the city might really enjoy!

Rivarians!

On to other things... for your amusement I love to feature threads I find fun or entertaining or very well written. I'm stealing one today from Dreamscapes.

It seems Aidara and Xalet (Xalet being one of our non-native purple hotties) are getting their funk on in a dream with Ivak, Eywaat, and Priskil. And I suspect the God and Goddess are going to be more than entertaining when it comes to comparing their mortals and how awesome they are.

When Monkey's Attack

Xalet Writes: "Behind him the fawning figure of a woman with dark tresses, pale skin and an unusually skimpy attire consisting of something best worn to a watering hole was quick to provide some positive commentary, "Oh Xalet, you're so dreamy.""

Aidara Writes:
" Eywaat and Ivak both stepped to Addy’s side, scooping their arms beneath her and lifting her from the sand. Both of the gods looked upon the little woman with a sort of feral hunger, only barely restrained. They were both clad in nothing but the a loincloth, stark contrast to Xuphim’s ornate armor. Reclining back against their strong arms, one hand idly twirling a lock of Eywaat’s dark hair, Addy tossed the Akalak a smirk and bit at her lip. “I like real men… Xalet, was it?” "


On a side note... this is why we don't give grades to Dreamscapes! They turn out like this!

Hello Folks!

I've had an insane number of PMs to catch up on from this last week. We're talking in the hundreds. Anyhow, I am all caught up now so if you were waiting on a PM, Sent me one, etc and it wasn't answered and still isn't - resend it. Either I didn't get it or it got buried under nonsense.

On a note along the same lines, if you send me a pm, make sure that if it is somehow important or time sensitive you mark it thusly. Half those PMs were spammed conversations people wanted to include me in on and when that gets thick it is easy to loose pms without something that says "HEY! READ ME! IMPORTANT HERE! SOMEONE'S DYING/HAS LEGITIMATE QUESTIONS/NEEDS COUNSELING!" Etc. You guys get the point.

Anyhow, you guys are the best. Thanks for giving us ST's here so much fun. I'm going to go on a grading spree soon and clean out the Mod/Grade Request Thread.

Just wanted to pop in for a second guys!

I have been grading Riverfalls threads, about 6 of them now. And I just have to say, I love you guys! I enjoy your threads so much and not only do I learn more about Mizahar, but about RL things too. Like in Kavala's beekeeping threads. And to all of you who participated in my Fortune Telling Thread, thank you guys! It was my first modded thread and I had so much fun doing it! I hope all of you were happy with what you got and had as much fun as me!

Speaking of modded threads, I can do those! If you guys need a quick thread that needs a quick mod intervention, and Goss is too busy, just PM me! I'll be happy to help you guys out! Plus you can PM me with any questions or concerns.

So have fun in RF guys! I hope you love this place as much as I do!

Hey Guys!

Shadow Cast is on Thanksgiving break and already bored, so please rush her if you have some simple moderation you'd like her to do. These could be flashbacks to a past event, a little adventure, anything... I'd like her to pick up one or two threads so first come first serve. Nothing huge and epic though, she's just getting her feet wet. But if you've always wanted a little something she's definitely a great storyteller.

On that note, I'm collecting threads in RF that are exceptional in terms of training and such. If you have someone learning a skill - no matter how minor - please let me know! As I grade I've been adding these skills to my list in Behind The Waterfall so people have some reference threads. If you have one YOU WROTE feel free to nominate yourself. We don't mind a bit of 'Look what I did!' around here. If you put the work in, others might learn a thing or two! So let me know if you have any thread nominations. We'll keep adding to the list as they come in.

And I'm sorry your NaNo Orphans. It will all be over soon. I promise.

To everyone!

I can do what Shadow Cast can do! *flounders* So don't feel like you won't get any moderation done if Shadow Cast gets enough. I've got some room for threads with a few people who need it. I promise I don't bite. I'm actually quite cuddly!

I plan on going on a grading spree this weekend (waiting for a certain PM before I do), so I hope to take a big chunk out of the writers waiting in Riverfall for their lores and experience.

Well, if anyone's still available for a short modded thread I'd be happy to be your test subject. I'm not particular about the topic and it doesn't have to be very long or involved. Just be warned, there could be walls of text from me until the end of NaNo, as I'm catching up after a very late start. :)

I'd be happy to mod a thread for you Leo! Of course, it's your character, so it's your thread, so you choose what you want it to be about. It can be a training thread where you just need me to mod the trainer, or anything else a little more complicated. If you think of something, go ahead and PM me or Calavera and we'd be happy to help! :)

Hi Guys!

I'm finishing the RF Calendar and Seasonal Challenge this week to be posted by completed by around Thanksgiving. Please don't hesitate to use the suggestion box if you'd like to see a specific event happen. I'll credit you in the perks store.

Speaking of the perks store, once NaNo is finished I'll be updating everyone's perks points and putting a TON of new stuff in the shop. So if you've created an NPC, legend, lore, game, anything really that's in the suggestion box, I'll update everyone's points and people can go shopping. So its not too late to create a unique location or situation within RF. The Perks should be enough to bribe you thoroughly. There's also locations on the Link Map that aren't flushed out. You can tackle one of them as well. Everyone, like always, will be credited their work.

So... if your burned out on NaNo or not doing it and disgusted with everyone that is... go ahead and stick it too them by loading up on perks while they are busy staring at bees in fascination or climbing rock walls or doing all the dream threads that make no sense whatsoever! It's time to enact your revenge and get tangible rewards for your trouble! :P

As always, I love you guys. You're the best Domain ever. And your NaNo Orphan status is almost at an end.

Just wanted to leave a note...I will be pretty busy over the American Thanksgiving holiday, so I don't know how much I will get to post. If I don't get replies to you over the break, I will pick them up on Monday.

Thanks again to all of you who write with me!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

I just wanted to remind you that there are perk point opportunities available. The Seasonal Holiday Development Thread is well underway and Rosela is cleaning house earning points left and right there. She also got 20 points for starting her own business and ten more for writing a location this season, so she's well on her way to be a top point earner in RF. You know that grabs you 50 points at the end of the season right?

Anyhow, develop develop develop! There's a lot of locations and a lot of things left to do in this city. Lets make it a goal to have everything fleshed out by the end of the year. And in the mean time you too can start your own business, mentor newbies, help out in all sorts of ways. Septimus is going to clean house as soon as I update the Suggestion Box because she's invented a game, and worked on a legend. You don't have to be the master of code either. Elem who lacks in photoshop skills has submitted a location anyhow and its great. They take me five seconds to really put into a usable form, so don't let lack of editing skills in terms of graphics bother you. We can handle that on our end.

So have fun! Earn some perk points! We have oodles of new items coming in. And if you aren't' centered in Riverfall (Aren't you sad about that anyhow?) you can still participate no worries. Just get in on the fun. And if you have any suggestions for additional Perk Point items, let me know. I'm seriously DOUBLING the amount of items in the prize chest after the season change.

You guys are the best!
