[Syliras' OOC Thread] The Calm within the Storm

[Shimoje]

Woah Woah!

What is this? Shimoje is using a boxcode? Yep, you guessed right! I am back from the field!!!

So for those of you who didn't know. I am military, more precisely I am in the United States Army, stationed here in Ft Carson, Co. Lovely place, a lot of nature, a lot of mountains, and a lot more trying to catch your breath... both from the view, and from the high elevation!

During this field exercise you are tasked with setting up a CP (control point) to defend and prevent enemies from crossing a said boundary. I belong to what is called a BSB (Brigade Support Battalion), but sadly we are an infantry division. Due to this we will often practice for the worst, and that is what happened during this Field Problem. We were being attacked multiple times a day by a variety of different forces. I can't go into too much detail here, but just know it is a lot of work!

I have some pictures if you would like to see some of what occurred out there, of course it won't show you everything, like how the FOB was set up or a variety of different intel which is usually a no-no in sharing! Enjoy!

Speech Thoughts

[Ferrin Al'Mandrikan]

Glad your back Shim! Hope all went well! Now you get to relax.

[Imellion]

Good to see you back!

And I go to school out in CO. Beautiful place. Even going back to work at a camp in a week.

Departure of the Tipsy Wench

The Tipsy Wench Sets Sails on the 91st of Spring. There is room for more passengers or, if you would like to be a part of the adventure for a short time and work as a crewmember there is that opportunity as well!

Speech Thoughts

[Kestral]

Hey Syliras, I come bearing bad news. I've reinvented my character after some thought and she is moving to Zelvita to start out in instead. So any threads I have been talking about with any of you can no longer happen. Sorry guys, see you around!

[Ferrin Al'Mandrikan]

Bummer Kestral,

Hope you have fun in Zeltiva! Maybe travel to Syliras some time soon? Cheers!

[Wrenera]

Hey there!

Your neighborly Zith is back for the summer and is looking to cause a stir! She rather enjoys hikes and hunts in the wilderness and meeting potential prey. Feel free to give her a visit sometime.

Disclaimer: Wren will not be held responsible for any bodily harm that may befall your character.

Alright alright, that's just me being my usual silly self. Of course she'll be responsible!

Feel free to send me a pm with whatever fun plots you may have. I would say I'm pretty flexible and open to most threads with the exception of meet and greets. Boredom will not be tolerated and those are horribly dull! I much prefer combat heavy threads or at least a thrilling adventure of some sort.

See ya on the flip!

[Garland]

Hello! I'm looking for someone to teach Garland how to Flux or
Reimance.

Garland may or may not pay, we can discuss it through PM. Since Nivel is gone, I was hoping someone might help me with this. I don't know any other mages.

[Ferrin Al'Mandrikan]

@Wren: Welcome back. I can shoot you a PM or something if you want to thread. I've been wanting for Ferrin to meet more Ziths and get to know them.

@Garland: I can also shoot you a PM of the few mages here in Syliras, plus if you want I can GST for you? If you really want it.

[Clyde Sullins]

Clyde is always looking for some new magic students, so he might be convinced to teach Garland some, particularly as he's a squire. As Clyde is a master Reimancer/Teacher, he'd be a good Reimancy master. That being said, as he's currently keeping his Reimancy secret from the knighthood, it'd be a tricky subject to reach, or for him to know to request lessons in that particular magic, at least directly. Although whether or not the knigthhood would even care if they found out is questionable, as he's currently working as a mage for them, and can practice magic in his lab(within reason and limiting a few outright forbidden ones within city limits). But he likes his secrets. Clyde doesn't give out lessons for free, but he doesn't charge coin. He doesn't sell magic for anything as cheap as money. But if your interested, perhaps we can talk further.
