Yo. I legit forgot this exists because life, in all their delicate and refined glory, decided to use me for target practice. (Side note, they have really, really good aim.)

Anyway, @this-is-not-an-alien, introduce me to your friends because I … don’t actually know anyone o…[Read more]

I think we’re going through each of our character’s worlds one by one as an overall plan. My brother does fantastic role play games with us at home I cannot play pretend games without him I’m spoiled for his plot twists but there’s some intensive collaboration between us rn and that’s probably not so fair, I gotta try and keep you and @hannahrenner…[Read more]

Amnesia was enjoying this one group but the OTHER GROUP SEEMED STUCK IN A TIME CAPSULE.

No fun tormenting frozen characters.

So.

*Proof* All of them, Sherlock, Nithel and (what was blind dude’s name?) land back in that room of mirrors from the last Character Castle. It’s an inbetween world, they can get back into the main storyline if they pick…[Read more]

@inkhorn and @rose-colored-fancy IKR?! I’ve been busy too.

@inkhorn

Ohhh, same XD Everyone has been more or less absent. when there are some more folks I’ll join in again! I’m considering taking out Halmar and Mejt (Their story has been moved to the back burner for now) and drop in some other characters from a mystery I’m plotting.

Scene Questions

1.       Is there anything that stood out to you as intriguing about this scene?

The whole mystery surrounding the Resolve was really cool! After reading @obrian-of-the-surface-world ‘s comments I also became intrigued about why Crin just allowed some of his resolve to be stolen…. very inter…[Read more]

(also very late to the party XD)

But yes, I just wanted to say that I LOVE your passion, man! Showing that deep, raw side of God in fantasy is something that hasn’t been shown very often, and I think it’s a good thing.

I’ve wanted to write/help write such stories myself, so this really resonates with me.

So my answer is: Write it, man! Trust…[Read more]

I know that I have neglected this castle for several weeks and will, unfortunately, have to neglect for several more weeks. I’ll try to post something within three weeks. 🙂

Sorry for the delay replying 😁

Alessio crept on the deck, wary for the slightest move.

He expected people there. At least a smattering.

But it’s empty.

With a slow, soft inhale Alessio rehearses everything in his mind again. This is where the man said to meet him, He had a plan to stay alive, he needed to know what his enemy’s mot…[Read more]

@rose-colored-fancy @k-a-grey

Thank you both so much! I use repetition/refrain often for songs, but lately I’ve started using it in regular poetry. I was concerned that repetition would bore people.

It’s nice to meet you as well, K. A. Grey, and thanks for the stanza tip. I did fragment the lines for emphasis, but that is a good point on readability.

@e-n-leonard Hey there, fellow poet! Nice to meet you!

This is beautiful!! Nice use of repetition.  My only critique might be to split it up into stanzas to make each “I am a …” stand out, and perhaps combine some lines instead of fragmenting it to make it easier to read.  But splitting up lines can also add more emphasis too, so it’s up to y…[Read more]

@e-n-leonard

Fair warning, I’m not at all a poet, I’ve never written poetry.

However, I loved this! It gets a clear message across, I love the format with a repeating pattern!
