Hey everyone~!

It's wonderful to see some bright souls floating around . The Character Registry is now up, and you will see the calendar and challenges pop up very soon.

Happy writing,
Neo

Hey all~

I've also got the Seasonal Calendar and Seasonal Challenges up. There is not much in terms of quests this season, but there are some fun opportunities. We've got a mage coming to town, who can teach you any personal magic (or at least give you lores for those that aren't teachable, e.g. Hypnotism). So if you want to snag that chance, go ahead. Other than that, we've got the wonderfully long Chemah vo Ranek Festival. If you guys are interested in any one of those days, I can definitely set that up in an open thread for ya'll, or you could do them by yourselves. It's up to you and your interests. Other than that, have fun and happy writing!

Three cheers for Neo! Hip hip, hooray!
Just like a genie; I ask for seasonal goals and what do I get but seasonal goals! Maybe I should ask for something bigger next time...like....cake!

I hope you knew what you were getting into when you started this. I mean, dealing with me as a cheerleader? It's sent weaker men to asylums.

*hands over cake* I'm pretty much here to give you what you want (reasonably), so you are in luck! Although I will warn you about my slowness. It usually takes me a day or so to get it done and approved ...

And I love cheerleaders! Never had one before. I wonder ... do they work the same as minions? >.>

[Neoma Gerbera]

I would imagine so. I've never seen minions at work, but I've heard good things.

[Snaeha Datura]

The seasonal Calendar looks awesome!

Just wondering though, will I need moderation for any threads with the mage? I'm hoping to get Snaeha to gain more skill in hypnotism, and perhaps to explore the chances of her learning Familiarly too, so this provides a great opportunity for her development

[Neologism]

Neoma: *maliciously cackles*

Sneaha: You wouldn't be able to gain any skill points in hypno from him, although you can gain enough lores to have your character learn it on her own through some meditation (explained in further detail here) I'm almost positive that you can self-mod Rutreg for learning hypnotism, however I did check in with Mirage on that, so hold tight for me. I will pm as soon as I get an answer

I did fail to mention this, and I'm sorry, but Familiary is the only magic that he doesn't offer. Even though it is a personal magic, it involves a world magic. To acquire a familiar, you'd need another wizard who is already bound to a familiar who knows the basics of summoning, it is a rather hard process (explained in further detail here), and one that I can't moderate for you. Although any other personal magic is open, sorry I didn't clarify that for you guys.

[Snaeha Datura]

Thanks for the info Neologism. In all honesty you probably had made it pretty clear he couldn't tach Familiary, I just failed to notice/remember. I'd definitely be happy with learning lores from this mystery wizard, anything that helps further her character development

Hey all! Long time no talk ...

As some of you can tell, we are sort of lacking in players ... and I'm not sure how excited you guys are with that, I see it seems to be working out well enough for some of you. I see a beautiful rp partnership budding between two of your *wiggles*. But it doesn't hurt to want a little more company! So I am thinking of putting an ad in the matchmaker forum for our lovely cavernous city. We will mostly appeal to the winged creatures (Akvatari & Zith), our beloved spidery-people, new players and anyone interested in making an alt. However any other humanoid that wants visit (at their own risk) may.

I don't have a lot to advertise for this city that people don't already know. I will be giving them a gist of the city and out people as well as hinting them to our exciting quest next season (I think you guys will enjoy it, I tried to make it friendly to the selection of personalities we have here). Now, I've seen ads for cities in the past, and I want to do a little bit more. Given your consent, I will let you write a little blurb advertising your character (or I will, if you don't want to). This will go into the ad and give people a little extra incentive to join us, showing people who you guys are, what Kalinor offers for the player and also get you guys some more threads, should you want them.

This is entirely up to you guys. So give me your opinion, is it trash? Is it not? If you guys don't want it, I'll toss the idea, no problem. Also, if you have other ideas, I would love to hear them. I want to encourage you guys to get involved in the city. It helps me be a better ST for you guys when I know what you guys want. And remember, I am always here the help if you need anything at all.

Also a reminder: The season ends in a week! You don't have to rush to finish up threads, we definitely don't have a backlog in the grading, but you may want to check and see if you need to put any placeholders down, or turn in job threads so you can pay your seasonal expenses. You know, all the usual stuff.

@ Snaeha & Aranta: I love the thread so far! Sorry to have interrupted it!
