  1. Kindness being a problem, that was a sentiment he had been raised with. The world he grew up in was unforgiving and cruel and kindness could get you killed. It was not something he so easily would have rejected as she did with her casual shrug. He seemed mostly oblivious to the turbulent atmosphere that emanated from him, so accustomed to the more negative outlook on life. His food mechanically went from bowl to mouth, the spoon scrapping softly against the bowl, making no move to leave nor continue conversation after the warrior said he was welcome to stay. Noticing the sudden movem
  2. Nathan pushed open the door to The Gilded Hide, the warm sun spilling into the shop. A crawling sensation crept to his shoulder and he looked over to Hector. With a sigh, Nathan stepped down into the shop and crossed over to the counter. It had been a while since his shop had seen activity. But if he were going to get to the front lines, he better also become a forefront tailor. There was no reason to hold back. Pausing at the counter, he let Hector down his arm and to the counter where the scorpion manned his defensive position at the bell. Cracking a small smile, a feature not common to him,
  3. Familiar: Hector Type: Scorpion Taming Link: Description: A small creature, about the size of an adult hand, Hector resembles an Arabian fat-tailed scorpion with a jet black carapace. His pincers and tail bear a crimson tint, reminiscent of Bloodletter's glow during a sword art, and a white Star of Bethlehem emblazons the top of his cephalothorax.
  4. Nathan nodded slightly, sensing that he had probably said to much and scared her off. It had been the truth, though, and that was all that Nathan would ever give. He looked to his own bowl swirled the spoon around in the thick soup. Of course he realized his current state was much better than many others but that did not quite justify the bullheadedness he had exhibited. Be that as it may, she was most likely right in the fact that he was overanalyzing himself. That was what he did, though, and it was probably too late to change such an inbred characteristic. "Thanks for being blunt but, I mus

      When I was in the Air Force, a boy I dated loved drag racing, hot rods, motorsports, etc. I learned quite a bit about vehicles because I let myself get all interested in it for him. It turns out I actually really like the stuff, but I hate being dirty. So at least I know when something's wrong, but I could never do anything about it myself. :( I hate grease.

      My father, grand-father, and great-grandfather are all into cars so I was kinda sick of it by the time I grew up. I know about it, more so out of necessity, but I don't enjoy it as much. I decided that rockets and jets were more my speed. However, I can't deny how cool it was to walk through my great-grandfather's garage and see a whole bunch of restored Model A's and other such old-time cars.

    4. HighNoonMich

      HighNoonMich

      yeah, model As are nice. depends on what you do with them though. lol I love watching drag races,so.

  7. @Corvo, thanks for your name popping up xD Made me want to play Dishonored again and I saw it was on sale on Steam for $3.29. You just landed me a pretty sweet deal

      ooh nice! Thanks for the info. All I can remember from last time is blinking and making rats eat people. Ah those were the days ^^

      oh and that really creepy song

  8. His mind had become a warzone and neither side was willing to budge at all. It came as a shock when something brought him out of the destructive zone that his mind was at the moment. His sharp blue eyes opened as he realized that a question had been asked of him and, after a quick consideration, Nathan turned towards the blonde and looked into her eyes, immediately noting the concern that was present in her eyes. That look really threw him off because never in his life had he seen such compassion, especially from a stranger. Especially in this game. However, he did not see any recognition in h
  9. Did anyone else know that apparently there is a National Espresso Day and that it is November 23rd? Guess I need to pull my old machine out and make a few cups.

      Well, at least then someone got to enjoy my hard work. I would have poured blood, sweat and tears into that cup! Or maybe not! That would be disgusting!

      ...on second thought maaaybe I'll pass on that cup of espresso XD

  10. There was a loud creaking from the main entrance, causing Nathan's eyes to flicker up from the water glass. It shook slightly as the door slam closed behind the woman that entered. He paid no mind to her initially, in all reality the clanking of her heavy armor just proving to annoy the thin duelist. Nathan closed his eyes trying to ignore the sudden intrusion on the quiet bar. He heard the warm voice of the woman as she addressed the barkeep, asking for a bowl of food. Something resonated within him as the voice reached his ears. The memories fluttered around, cast onto his closed eyelids. He
  11. Nathan was sitting alone at a table in a pub, a full glass of water in front of him. This was not particularly abnormal but it was more so the choice of location that perturbed him today. Not that there was any issue with the tavern. The pub itself was rather nice and not terribly loud, a quaint establishment. The barkeeper sat behind the bar, minding her own business, which suited Nathan rather well. It had been a long struggle uphill in this game and he needed time to relax. Nathan sighed softly and leaned back in his chair, closing his eyes and reflecting. He had not changed at all ove
  12. Been on a bit of leave due to school picking up and scrambling about as I finish preparations for my internship at Lockheed. I'm back, though, and see quite a few things have changed. If anyone is interested in writing with me, hit me up. Gonna go thoroughly read all the new rules and change my stats to comply with them

      Wow! Gratzon on the internship!

      We've still got our thread we can finish up.

      Well hey, I just found my way back too. I'd love to write with you again, if you're up for it.

  13. Welp, for those in the Nerius thread, if you do not have a Healer's Amulet, I have four amulets to give in my inventory. Thank Teayre for the amulets, I'm just the middle man ;~; Just let me know and add it to your post

  14. Any Artisan able to make me a Healer's Amulet before the Nerius fight commences? If not that's alright. If so, please contact me. I'll pay a bit extra for the small window of time that the order has to be completed in.

      @Creius All done and replied!

  15. Nathan walked into his shop and looked around. It had been quite a while since he had last walked into the dusty place. It was a mess in his eyes, even if it was only due to the thin layer of dust. He would have to clean up after he finished crafting today. With that thought, he headed on back. In the crafting room, Nathan grabbed a few of the recent materials he had just nabbed from the Earning a Living quest and stored the rest. He set out to work immediately and was quite surprised with the quality work he put out considering how long he had been gone. Maybe he still had some skill residing
  16. I resigned myself to solo EaL a whole bunch of times for mats and am currently pounding out posts as fast as I can. I got curious how fast I typed so I went over to a typing test and did it. I was wondering what everyone else usually scores. I know speed is not everything, but it is definitely something to brag about maybe xD I was scoring between 70 to 80 WPM with 350 to 400 CPM. Here's the site I just used if you're curious and don't know

      Why don't you then? xD I'm sure you could as long as you buff yourself, which is what I plan on doing most definitely. With the right crystals/pots/food the quest should be easily doable

      I could do it, but I want to wait for the rest of the quest to come out. There's only 2 of the 4 nights of the quest.

    4. Creius

      Creius

      Fair enough, makes sense to wait to do them all. I'm interested to see where they go

  17. For a few weeks now I thought I was going insane ;~; I usually wear my headset whenever at my computer so I can listen to music and stuff in peace. I recently picked up the habit of not bothering to plug my mic in and since then I've been hearing voices in my head xD I just realized that, somehow, my mic jack is picking up a local radio station. What the heck!?

      Calrex

      PFFT! That's awesome. Try to tune it and see if you can pick up government transmissions :P

    2. Baldur
  18. Well, good game I guess. It was fun. Five hundred posts is not a terribly large amount of writing. Hopefully, I'll be back >:D I just ask two things. One <.< Please pay some mind to that idea proposed by Baldur. Seems like a good fix to what ended up screwing me over. Second :D Kill the (insert creative censor). There are still a few people in danger and I would hate to come back and learn that the boss claimed more souls. I still have some threads I need to complete so I'll get those done first. Guess this is goodbye

      What sense would that make? I am sure he'd rather lick his wounds and go elsewhere after finishing his death scene. If you decide to make an alt, come to the dark side, I'll powerlevel your character as well. You are a great player, there should be no reason for a player to leave a community for that without giving them a little extra help. I'll be here if ya need me, whenever.

      Daww ;n; sorry Creius, i was rooting for you to pull through. When you come back just let everyone know and we will probably all be there to help you along! :3

      You're always welcome to rejoin the site good sir, I'm just sorry that I wasn't able to tank for you and save your character. Feel free to poke me or any other KOB member if you make a new character, I'll happily help you out. 

  19. @Asterios

    I don't want to wait for the post D; Did I bite it? That's another hit and I'm just curious if my armour held up this time. You don't have to say anything, of course. Just worried about myself

      @Hunie Good to know, although I have to agree with Rain's comment. Creius may be stunned and in this case another player may use a potion on him (will this rule change be announced somewhere?), but what happens when a player is near death and just not stunned? In a large group like Asterios, the monster's turn happens several times in between one player's turn. In that case, they're just as dead as a stunned person because it's a matter of them not getting to react for several monster attacks because that's just the turn order.

      I would really like to suggest limiting the number of players allowed in event bosses in the future, but that's just my two cents.

      Baldur actually came up with something the other day to remedy that and with his method I don't think we would need to limit the number of people in the fight to reduce boss actions-

      You can read his idea here.

      @Rain Discussing with fellow staff, will have an answer soon enough.

  20. Hopped online, see a post about Asterios going South, check the boss roll, cried a bit. I don't want to roll crits anymore ;-; If there's an anymore after this xD

  21. Nathan entered his shop and immediately went to the crafting room, intent on making that item for the customer. He pushed open the door and grabbed leathers from the storage and began working as soon as he could. Once again, item after item, he did not find anything he deemed worthy of his customer. With a sigh, he went to the front room and took one piece of armour that at least somewhat resembled the order. He would give some money back since it was not what the customer ordered, that would make up for the not quite perfect craftsmanship. He set aside the order and took out some Col that he
  22. Nathan heard the usual ringing of the bell that indicated the entrance of a customer so he left the crafting room and walked behind the front counter. He pet Hector idly while he listened to the request as it was given to him and watched as a sack of Col and leather settled onto the counter. With a nod, Nathan took the payment into his inventory and took note of the exact specifications that the customer had given, noting the size the armour had to be as well. "I will get right on this and get your item to you as soon as I get it made." Nathan turned around then and went back into the crafting
