@jeantown No problem, glad you’re feeling better already!
Btw, I don’t know if you remember, but I once mentioned about wanting my Guen to be able to rant to Lance about the way he’s been behaving these past three years. I was wondering if it was possible to insert a choice along the lines of “I think that’s a pretty stupid way for him to deal with things,” in the beginning of Book 2, when Guen is thinking about how she feels about Lance always being away on adventures and sending her victory trophies? I don’t know how it will affect anything differently, but my Guen would think that merely “annoying” doesn’t begin to describe what she thinks of Lance’s actions. Just a suggestion, hehe. Thanks, and good luck with everything!
Und ja, Herr ? @Lazarus, ich bin ein Mädchen. Sie sprechen (oder schreiben???) sehr gut Deutsch!
Oooorrrrr, all that sleep might just make my brain more focused and creative, and my attitude more positive, resulting in MORE writing. You never know.
@CrayFoPottah Good suggestion. I put it on the list of things to think about when I edit that part. I’ll have to see how much work (or not) it might be to add something to the zillion different variants of that menu, but probably not too much work.
So, I’ve got like two things to say today, the first of which is actually a question and not a statement
Rather than asking what are the limits of Light and Dark Magic, I’d like to ask: what exactly are Morgana and Merlin’s limits respectively? I’m more interested in what they can’t do honestly.
This Merlin and Morgana query has lead to a second question; one which I know is extremely pointless and has probably been asked already but I’d like to ask for my benefit. Do you have any idea what the main cast’s (or whoever) favorite food/s is/are? If so what is it/are they? I imagine Morded eats the souls of unborn children, Arthur can be satisfied by pretty much anything (or the dreams of uni-bow babies.), while Meligaunt likes fried sheep legs (primarily since he can’t have fried and battered Arthur.) I’m not sure what I think the others like yet…I’m a little tired right now, so I’ll think more in the morning.
Secondly, I started writing two days ago and have pretty only existed as writing since. I can safely say…it’s coming. I’m not sure whether or not I’m happy with what I have but at least I convinced myself to write. As always, I hope everything is swell on your end.
Ja und nein. Ich identifizieren als beide Junge und Mädchen. Im Englisch
Ich würde sein bekannt als: Bi-Gendered. Danke. Zu hören /lesen Ihre worte, mittel sehr viel zu mich. Dies meine nicht mutter mundart. Ich bin amerikanisch; Ich einfach passieren zu sein wirklich interessiert im das Deutsche sprache. (Ich denken es ist schön )
(Edit) I apologize if my message is/was in anyway offense. I did the best I could with my exceedingly limited/practically non-existent knowledge of the German language and sentence structuring. I truly hope, I didn’t offend.#WhyamIstillup
Sorry for slow responses; I’ve been really busy with work and adjusting to these massive dietary changes… they do seem to be working, though, and I’m breathing a lot better.
I have no idea what’s up with that weird white smiley face… I just typed the normal smiley. Maybe it’s a Halloween thing? Maybe I need to go back to backwards smileys that don’t get turned into things I have no control over. (:
In the long run, improving. It took me six months to write the Frankmarch branch because I was so sick and brain-addled. With more sleep, I can work more efficiently and not get as tangled up in things.
Morgana could cast just about any Dark Magic spell that exists; she’s limited by access to materials. The most powerful spells require very rare / expensive materials that are nearly impossible to get. As for Merlin, he’s limited by an unwillingness to exert too much influence over things. If he wanted to, he could probably destroy an enemy army in a few seconds… but he wants Arthur to fight his own battles. Or maybe he intended to destroy the enemy army and just forgot because an interesting lizard walked by.
With apologies, I just can’t think about food right now. Too close to home. I can say that both Morgana and Lancelot know how to cook, while Arthur does not. Arthur tried to help out a few times in the Wilderfort kitchens, and was subsequently banned from being there during cooking times. Neither of Lancelot’s mothers can cook very well (and they didn’t have house servants on Avalon), so Lancelot stepped in and did some cooking for them when he was young, then learned more about it when he was in Gaul. The meals he cooks are, of course, amazing. Morgana doesn’t like the idea of being completely dependent on servants, so she taught herself to make basic, healthy meals; nothing fancy.
@hapamama93 Thanks, and all my sympathy to you! The world is such a different and difficult place when your body refuses to work the way you want. Some days are better than others, but I do try to be as grateful as I can for the good things.
When I first played the game, I assumed Lance was just the typical good-looking, athletic blond that all the men wanted to be and all the women wanted to be with, and didn’t have much else going on. He has since evolved into my dream guy.
Unless its Unsurvivable form of cancer then you dont have reason to be afraid.
The thing that Humans are best at is defying so called destiny. We Chafe against chain and we break them. we survive. We find a way because thats what humans do.

Ohmygod what is up with the emojis??? I’m creeped out now…
He cooks! He’s good with animals! He goes on crusades and defeats villains! He is perfect in every way! Except for the fact that he’s not real. That part sucks.
Or as the Simpsons would say, Cheese-Eating Surrender Monkeys.
You know, Hitler ordered his men NOT to do too much damage against Paris because he really liked the city and wanted to keep it intact. This meant not bombing, mortaring, or reckless shooting. Even with the Germans going easy on them, the French couldn’t win.
To be fair to the French, they put up a good fight in the times and places where they weren’t so severely disadvantaged. The French managed to link up with the Belgians and the British and repulsed several German attempts to continue their advance in Belgium after the initial days of the Battle of France.
It was when Phase Two of the Manstein Plan started with Army Group A smashing through the Ardennes and crossing the Meuse that the Allies were thrown to disarray.
Historically, the French Army was also considered to be the world’s premier fighting force until the Franco-Prussian War. The French also held their ground during WW I, the most famous example being the French victory in the Battle of Verdun. Heck, they nearly got into a war with Egypt, did okay in Vietnam until Dien Bien Phu and fought numerous other insurgencies in Africa; all of this after WW II.
I know. I just get annoyed about the holding-back thing because Hitler gave orders to bomb Rome, Venice, and Pisa (which, in my opinion, are much prettier than Paris) but gave orders to avoid destroying Paris. History is so unfair.
I don’t know for sure but in school I was told that Paris is still standing mostly undamaged only because decision of some general.
The city must not fall into the enemy’s hand except lying in complete debris. - Hitler
In 1944 Allies attempt to reclaim Paris. After loosing in Stalingrad Hitler hadn’t had enough soldiers to win against such force so he order to raze Paris but General von Choltitz refuse to bombard the city.
And when I’m glad that Paris survived I agree
with @Mirabella. It’s not fair that so many other cities was heavly damaged or literally raze (like Warsaw or Guernica)
First I am Spanish and a history student so I could tell you Guernica was just a symbol thing it was small village that had symbolical importance for the Vasques. It’s like attack the Alamo in America. Zero military value and zero political value. Republic used as well and hired Picasso to made the picture for the universal exposition. It was brutal and a slaughter but a small Nazi hell camp had double or triple victims that Gernica. And yes Hitler said repeatedly to their people That it was that or destroy the city and the city was the monument of what white people in the past could achieved and his plans was made Berlin the new Paris, The beacon of the new reborn of Arian art destroying the decadent modern art impulsed by jews. The museum of new art and the exposition of the “deviant” art was dlfamous back then. The Nazi art was terrible boring and bad as hell. Hitler himself was far better than the rest even if his art has no soul is just… boring and plain.
I went on a vacation in Europe recently and something that surprised me about Germany was how badly bombed the whole country was. I saw very few buildings before the 1940s which was strange for Europe where I commonly found buildings older than USA.
That sounds about right. Thank you for answering my first question.
I…I’m…sorry. I didn’t think of the consequences my question would have. Truly thoughtless of me.
Soo, this leads me to think about another pointless question; I’m sorry I enjoy asking them. What other trivial talents do the main cast have? I assume they each have a few but that’s just because I generally assume moat people do.
Can Arthur knit? I feel like he would be great at it…I also think he’s a klutz who would end up looping a bunch of yarn around his fingers and then possibly playing with the Fae pet; much like me, minus the whole playing with pet bits - pets and I don’t agree. Sooo…active.
I feel like, Morgana is more a crocheter type than knitter type. I also think she can probably make a mean quilt but that’s just wishful thinking. Can Lance whittle? I feel like he like he’s a whittler, I don’t know why I just do.
Eh? I mean, I’d like to say it’s going well; I finished what I was writing and am onto a new project. There’s a part of me that distinctly feels as though I didn’t do a good enough job though - grammar and punctuation aside.
Also, I’ve some how been wrangled into my first Nanowrimo! Grrrrrrrrr!!!
Isn’t he just great? Such a considerate perv! I both love to love him and love to hate him.
@everyone here: Have you guys ever written anything and had your character tell you “this”. I had to go kinda’ deep into character to finish my last project and…now I’m struggling to not like my character. Anyways, I think that’s it for now. Tootle-loo for now#Nanowrimo
Meine gut Herr? @Elfwine: While I completely understand your point of view; my own personal experience compels me to disagree. Just because someone is well versed in one area, does not mean that they are also well versed in another.
For example; I have been told I’m fairly crafty - I mean in the artsy sense, but I couldn’t knit myself a blanket if I was stranded in the arctic with a pair of needles and some yarn; which I find both disheartening and immensely intriguing, primarily because my Mother can knit - and crochet, her " tuchus " off. She’s tried to teach me before and I just can’t seem to get the hang of it. I know many people who are talented in one field but suck in a different but similar one. Then again this is just my personal experience.
On a connected note:just because Arthur is a good or even great combatant doesn’t necessitate that he’s not a klutz. I going down that path is basically saying, if you knit then you’re obviously a good surgeon. Granted, I’m probably on about this because I kind of want Arthur to be a klutz; it would endear him to me more than he already is.
[quote=“Elfwine, post:5315, topic:1996”]
As for characters insisting X about themselves - yes. Not much luck with RPGs there.
[/quote] Was this addressing something I said?#ILoveArthur
Just a suggestion, hehe. Thanks, and good luck with everything!
