I Need To Get Back On Track

I MUST MUST MUST work on Infinite Sorrow today. I've been taking too long of a break with Brontide and The Master Demigod List. I need to return to Infinite Sorrow editing.

The Master Demigod List? U dun no wat dat iz?

Well, for Brontide, I randomly told Dawny or Mania (or someone to that affect) that I was going to put ALL the demigods I ever made ever on there and roleplay them.
Hahaha.
Well...
Turns out, from all the demigods I have ever created ever, the list is inching towards the 50 mark.
And that's only my male demigods.
That doesn't include all my female demigods, demigod siblings, monsters, and the humans I made on demigod sites.
That alone would make the list inch more towards, oh, the 70 or 80 mark.
So far, I'm roleplaying as close to 50 characters on Brontide. Plus, I'm making all their descriptions 2000+ words.
Yes, I've expanded the description goal. My goal is now to get all bios up to 5000 words.
Why do I do this to myself? Who would even read all that?
Well, I've had these characters (especially the demigods) for well around four years. I know them well enough that 2000 words is easy to write. They've all been so developed. It's not that I really have to force the 2000 words anymore, so I want to make things a bit more challenging.
Some of the newer characters will be hard to do, so I'll stick with the 2000 word goal. But for characters like Draco Psych (the first demigod I ever made), 2000 words is nothing.
Thanks to a sudden wave of nostalgia, I'm just going to put up a little blurb.

This is Draco Psych's first picture.

And this is his new one. I like it much better. 

Draco Psych is a son of Hecate and he was my first and only character to have CIPA. I later gave the same disease to Taikatalvi Tockspringe (Norcross).

This is Matthias Nytewraith.

And his new picture since I'm sticking solely with anime.

Yes, yes. I was obsessed with FFversusXIII even then. Shut up.

Matthias Nytewraith is a son of Hades. His father used him to his own devices as a sort of puppet. He was my first character to ever be born in the Underworld, my second character being Dragur Vicious.

So those were the first two demigods I ever made, way back in good old 2009/2010.

ROLEPLAY

I'm joining a Skyrim site. Yah, I know: weird. But I am weird, so you shouldn't be that surprised.

I'm actually quite excited for it. I get to do things I can't do in game. And I can make CHILDREN! Yay!

I'm also thinking of joining a site called Outcast. Potentially. It's going on my Potentials List. I'm just so swamped with stuff, I'm not sure I'll have time to roleplay there. So, we'll see.

I made a new character on Aisthesis. Meet Reo Kāpura!

"Reo" and "Kāpura" are maori words. "Reo" means "voice" and "kāpura" means "fire". He has the ability to change his voice into words of power. Skyrim inspired (obviously).

He also appears on the Skyrim rp site as Kopara T'rizen; the son of a Dunmer woman and Imperial man. He has a bastard noble son named Iratian Draconis.

More on this character later (maybe, I don't know.)

Mania will probably join Brontide along with Nighttie. I really hope so. More people need to join! I must go recruiting...

That's all for now minions. Catch ya later!


NOTE: So, I decided, "Screw it! I'm joining Outcast!" And I did. I made Hamza Urdu with Emery Nagasharoh's pic, edited out the demigod bits, and voila!

Can I Be Strong?

Can I Be Strong?

Here it is. Can I Be Strong?: the story of Eriacu Notus St. Cerveaux.
I changed the title. Sorry it's so last minute.
It was a very hard story to write, and I wrote it from the bottom of my heart.
Love you Eriacu! I love you very, very much!


(Meant to post this long ago, but I'm putting it up now. It's been sitting in my drafts too long. Enjoy!)

One Shot Previews

Little Coffins
St. Cerveaux

He shuddered. Cold. Not the cold of the frosty winter air, but from the cold that was filling his heart.
He was numb. Hollow. His eyes stared into nothingness, not perceiving the hole in the ground, the people dressed in black that were gathered around him, the coffin that was being lowered into the ground.
The coffin…
Coffins shouldn’t be that small.



Can I Be Strong?
Eriacu St. Cerveaux


“Eriacu! Come here! Look!”
“What is it, Mama?”
Evelyn pulled her little son down into her lap. All around them were flowers, the most beautiful Eriacu had ever seen. Red roses, royal and gold hemerocallis, fiery pink bleeding hearts, dusty white and lilac orchids, the tender blue and pale pink of grape hyacinths: wonder and splendor as far as he could see.
“Look here, Eriacu,” Evelyn said gently, reaching out to the underside of a wide leaf.
Under it’s shade a fragile cacoon, shimmering like chrome, hung precariously.
“Mama, it’s moving,” Eriacu whispered when he saw the cacoon twitch.
“Yes it is.”
“Why is it moving, Mama?” Eriacu asked.
“Wait and see,” she replied.
They waited and watched while the cacoon writhed and shuddered. Then it broke apart. Slowly, two large, brown triangles emerged. Then a long body with a button sized head and four black legs.
Eriacu gasped. Evelyn took his hand and held it just in front of the little creature. It climbed onto his fingers and he giggled as it tickled him.
“It’s a butterfly,” she said, watching Eriacu’s eyes widen in delight. She pointed a little further off, at a butterfly that had just taken flight. It was followed by a second. Then a third. Soon there were quite a few of them flitting about the garden.
“It’s so delegate,” Eriacu said, looking at the butterfly on his hand.
“You mean delicate?”
“Yah, delicate,” he replied. “It could break.”
“It won’t.”
“Why not?”
“Butterflies are stronger than you think, Eriacu.”

Saving Hate

Ciel Norcross

Ciel was breathing. He could feel the air stream into his mouth, and presumably into his lungs, after passing through the cumbersome breathing apparatus attached to his face. He could hear the mechanical sound produced by it. He could feel his chest rise and fall gently with the expansion of his ribcage.
He was breathing. That was a good sign.
He reached up with his hand and touched his face. He could feel the soft, warm skin of his forehead, and then, as he trailed his fingers a little further down, he brushed against the cold metal of the mask. He sighed softly. A mechanical thrum resounded.
He was breathing. He was alive.
He opened his eyes, slowly. First, a small crack, then wider. Assaulted by color and shadow and light, he shut them again. Only to blink and try once more.
His vision spun. He saw darkness again. His heart pounded in his chest. He was in pain.
But he was alive. That was a good sign.
What he noticed next gave him reason for worry. Curled about him was the large, lithe body of a snowy leopard. It reclined in a somewhat laid back pose, its tail flicking near his right arm, its great head resting on its paws by the left arm. It glanced at him, from the corner of its feline, blue eye. It made no moves other than quick blinks every now and then, and the flicks of its tail.
“What do you want?”
The leopards never asked him for anything, yet he always wanted to know what they wanted from him. They were always around. They wanted something didn’t they?
“What do you want?” he asked again. His voice was hoarse and quiet. His throat was dry, and it scathed him when he spoke. It made him cough. It made his throat feel raw.
The leopard brushed his arm with its tail. Comforting him.
“Leave me alone,” he whispered.
The leopard merely blinked at him.
“Just leave me alone…” he was on the verge of begging. “Please.”

These are the previews for the three backstories I have been working on. The preview for Little Coffins might actually be showing up in another story as well. We shall see.

Again, Saving Hate is just the working title and will probably be changed in the near future.

These stories will appear in full on my characters' stories blog. The links will be provided upon completion.

NOTE: Yes, I edited the title and preview for Eriacu's story. It is now finished and shall be posted up soon. The preview is much more fitting since it actually SHOWS Eriacu.

Tweet Tweet

So, I got a twitter account yesterday. Rapid had one for Blood Red Ashes, and I was thinking "how cool is that". So now I got a twitter account. It's called ImaginaryOrder and will feature everything that has to do with my websites including updates, new members, new sites, upcoming events, ideas, and more.

It will be fun! I swear!


WRITING
I took With Light down from wattpad simply because it needs some major editing. I feel as if I'm making the vampires loveable.
What am I saying: I made them loveable. No feeling about it.
Now yes, characters are going to be liked, but I don't want vampires to be loved. I'm trying to show how horribly awful they are. At some parts in the story, they will have "likeable" moments. Perhaps there will be ONE loveable moment, but for the majority, everyone needs to not like them.
I can't control people, so obviously there will be some people that 'love' them. But if I start loving them too much, then we have a problem.
So, as I said: major editing.
Then I'll put it back up.
Still conflicted about adding werewolves. I'm leaning towards NO. I'll just save them for a werewolf book.

I finished Eriacu's story at about midnight. Twas much fun. It has an alternative ending as well since I haven't decided on which one I like better.


ROLEPLAY

Well, roleplay on Aisthesis has kicked back into gear again.
Michael Valentine is scheduled to die per Nighttie's request. I'm going to have Mania play him while we do the death scene, then she is going to make Michael's younger brother who will be the new Godfather. I'm also going to have someone rp Patrick (Nighttie's other character) and we'll have the Venantium kill him.
So, Eriacu's almsot done being patched up. Yay! Maybe now I'll be able to do stuff with him. FINALLY!
Moving on the plot with Angel and Lethe. Angel's gonna torture Franline later ): . I am excited about it yet sorry for the poor girl. I really like Franline. Meria always has such refreshing characters.
Sora and Cey managed to rescue Marius and Mirage. They took them to Demolisher's Park where the Nightingale can help them.
Oh yes! I found the PERFECT theme song for Angel Ravenscroft.
I'll Take You There by Sleeping With Sirens
Ultimate. Perfection.

Still waiting on Forgotten Feathers. Thankfully, I know some other sites Flare is on so I can pester her.

Brontide is going well. I'm hoping to go recruiting more members again. I really, really hope Karma joins. She seems a bit unsure, but I'd love her to join. She's such a great roleplayer. At the same time though, I don't want to necessarily steal Shady's members.
Speaking of which, it'd make me über happy if Shady would join one of my sites. Either Aisthesis, Brontide, or both. Train and Anarawd! ^^

Exciting things are going to happen on Blood Red Ashes. I'm so pumped!

New Secrete Academy. Well, things are looking up. I really need to make more characters. I think I'm just frustrated and bored cause I'm limited to one topic. I don't know. We'll see.

Kittens, Ponies, and Movies... Oh My!

So guess what everybody! MOAR KITTENS!!!

Just on Sunday, I went to work and found out the cat at the farm had four adorable kittens.
Naturally, the first order of business was to sex them and give them names.
Naturally they all have Dragoney-Firey names!
I mean, NATURALLY!

I named a little orange kitten Zuko since he's a perfect mini me of his dad, Sparky Sparky Boom Man.
Yes that is his dad's name.
Then there's Danaerys who's rather cute and smoky gray and white.
Third one is white with ginger. My friend named her Saphira.

Here's a funny story.
On Saturday, my brother was playing Skyrim. I told him if we got a third cat, we were gonna name it Dovahkiin.
"Sure Niitari, whatever you say..."

So the fourth kitten is named Dovahkiin! Dovah for short, cause I'm 90% sure it's a girl, and Dovah sounds girlier. NOTE: Just found out from vets, she is definitely a girl.
Yes, I sing her the Skyrim theme song. No judging.
I swear I'm not a cat lady.
To wrap this story up, Dovahkiin and Saphirra were abandoned by their mother that same day. The mom, dad, and Zuko and Danaerys were nowhere to be found.
So Dovahkiin and Saphirra were taken to my friend's house where they were nursed and cared for. They will remain their indefinitely. We've had lots of fun with them.
So that has been my week and why I haven't managed to post much blog stuff. I've been swamped with kittens, horse back riding, barn fixing, and movie making.
Movie making?
My friend TheJazzPony (the one helping me with kittens and teaching me horseback riding and such) and I and a bunch of our friends are going to be making a movie which will then be put on youtube. So all ya stalkers can like, see what I look like and shiz.

I was perusing pictures in my camera and I found this adorable picture of Lucky, taken the same day he died. Isn't he cute :3

This is Saphira! She is white with flame point. The vets told us she will always have blue eyes. They are a vibrant sky blue (can't really be seen here). She's going to be beautiful when she grows up.

This is Dovahkiin, or Dovah for short. This shot was taken so you can compare her head to her body. LOOK AT THAT FLUFF!

This is how Dovah eats: faceplant, nom nom nom. So cute! She sits in the dish too when it's big enough.

Last picture of Dovah. Couldn't resist putting it up!

She's all wet from a face washing after her meal. Isn't she cute? :3

Ok, no more kittens I swear!

WRITING

I intend to start writing more Death Eaters. I am determined to finish it before November's NaNo starts. Let's see how I do.

I really can't wait to finish it. I've used Death Eaters in three different NaNos and I'm starting to get tired of always writing it. Hehe. I've been going back and re-reading and re-reading and I think I've got the inspiration again, so we'll see how much I can get done.

I am not doing the July NaNo camp. I'm going to be going to Iowa and Ohio for three weeks, so there's no point in starting Camp NaNo since I'll be gone and busy. November's NaNo... obviously I'm doing it. It will be challenging since I'll be going to three different schools -one of which is a college- but I am determined!

I'm not quite sure what I'll be doing for NaNo 2013. Possibly With Light or something new. 

So, after reading the stories Dawny and Star wrote for Tai, Loki, and Rialtzo, I decided to write a character backstory, and guess who I picked?

Ciel Everette Norcross.

D:

I've hit 6060 words and he's NOWHERE NEAR completion.

Who knew it could be so complicated. But then again, he has quite an extensive history. I'm thinking it'll be my first novelette (or novella, however you call it).

I did mention it earlier, so yes, this is the story with the working title "Saving Hate". I am really considering changing it. 

I may or may not (still struggling) consider writing a short story about the St. Cerveaux, working title called "Little Coffins". It will be a piece on what exactly happened to them that they are so haunted about.

ROLEPLAY

Aisthesis

It's going well. Nothing majorly major to report, I don't think. Everyone is working on their own mini-plots. I'm hoping to get more people in on the missing children plot.

Nighttie left. I'm sad. D: But I did start suspecting as much. I will now have to plan her characters' demises. 

Brontide

Dawny Star, Ivy, and Mania joined. Someone named Jaz popped in. I hope xe joins.

I really should begin advertising... and make more rp places. *sigh*

Infinite Sorrows

Nope. Nothing. Sorry D: I need to get working on it again, I know.

Race Horse Central

I made four more horses for Alhambra ( the sister of RHC). Witch's Remorse (witch), Hollow Balalaika (laika), Iron Stride of the Kings (ironstride), and Blanco Zangetsu (whitefang). That's about it.

Camp Half-Blood

Nothing at all. Where is Shady? o.o

Mercury Boarding School

Tia started advertising more, so we have new members. Yay! I need to start rping again.

New Secrete Academy

I need to stop making Luna and Firo so angst-y. >.> I'm actually considering leaving the site... idk.

Forgotten Feathers

Nothing.

The Walking Dead

I actually left this site. I may return someday, idk. I really wanna just stick with Brontide right now.

Blood Red Ashes
Rpaid returned and reopened the site. (she also joined Aisthesis, yay!) So I shall begin rping there again.

I haven't been rping a lot cause of how hectic this week has been. Hopefully we'll never have this boring of an update ever again!

That's all for now minions. Toodles.

Kittens!

I have two kittens now! Taco and Tinkerbell!

Here are pictures!

Taco (left) and Tinkerbell (right)

Crazy sisters!

Taco Glinda the Hobbit is a spastic little runt who loves string and people to climb on. She also has a fascination with boots.

Princess Tinkerbell Muffinsqushles Gandalf the Third is very persistent, prim, and proper. She's very calm and likes to act logically. She also enjoys sitting on people for extended periods of time in which they must pet her.

Taco and Tinkerbell after their nap.

Taco loves strings!

"Momma... why you wake me up from my beauty sleep?"

And so, Niitari/Dread/Helyen became a crazy cat lady.

The End

I swear I won't post up too many pictures of these guys. I swears. :3

The Storm Comes

Brontide.

Pardon me as I bang my head repeatedly against a wall.

*sigh*

So, I made a new site. Betcha didn't see THAT coming! -.-
In my defense, it's not a very serious site. I really don't care if it lives or dies or anything.
It's about demigods in a zombie apocalypse. *cough* betcha didn't see that coming either -.- Oh, I am just soooo predictable.

It's called Brontide, and I am rather proud of it. Mixing zombies and demigods is a rather interesting concept, and very original. So pardon me while I pat myself on the back.
*pat pat*

So far I have... seesh... ten charcaters!
Lucjan Janaga (renamed Loki there), Anarawd Sygrove, Alistair Myxx, Dajaex Mirou, Dragur Viscous, Taikatalvi Tockspringe, Hamza Urdu, Marsala Greyjay, Terho Wakefield, and Nico Mortesoul.
Some new faces, some old ones. Arkadi Alkara and Shia Acre will also be debuting there shortly.
Dawny also joined with Loki Razarth (Tai's cousin xD), and Everyn Sildare.

"Ok, ok. So where did the inspiration from Brontide come from? Obviously after your little zombie rant, we can guess where the zombies came from, but why demigods?"

Well, I've been getting frustrated with Camp Half-Blood if you couldn't see. I mean, the demons, angels, shapeshifters, newbie rpers, and then Vinnie's Sesshomaru character really kind of pissed me off. Then of course the whole focus on demigod "camp" and "campers" was annoying. I mean really? Is that all people can think of these days?

So I made my own demigod site. I didn't want to have two separate sites (one for zombies, one for demigods), so I combined them. It worked out pretty well if I do say so myself. Hopefully some more people will join. Star is making characters as I speak.

But there you have it: Brontide. It's kind of one of my own "meh" rps, where I don't care if it lives or dies or what. I mean, I do care that people stick to the rules and rp the advanced way, but otherwise, I'm not going to go overboard on the thing like I am Infinite Sorrow or Aisthesis.

Speaking of which, more Infinite Sorrow stuff coming up soon! I am still updating, updating, updating! Whoargh! I really don't know when the thing will be finished. Sometime in July I reckon.

That's all for now, minions.
