The "prophecies" surrounding Lisaera's entrance were actually due to me accidentally mistelling to Silvanus, I believe it was, who then said something like "I bet it's the return of Lisaera" on a channel somewhere. It was literally five minutes before we opened the Fulcrux area.

I have some old memories.

I remember when I was still a novice, I was playing with spiritbonding with Brother Monkey. At the time an infamous Visaeris was a magnagorian and was constantly raiding serenwilde. Of course I was clueless at the time at all the fuss and was just happily climbing trees. Then one day among the treetops, I came across Visaeris. I said "hello." Then he said "hello." Then a crash of Serenwilders came in and all hell broke loose! Who would have taught spirit bonding with Brother Monkey would bring any mischief. *chuckle* I was frightened out of my mind.

I remember at one time a magnagorian was looking for amour/weapons through the market channel. Latter that month it was learnt that Nikua, the first Marshal of Serenwilde answered the request but instead of a trade, he killed the customer. Oi. Tradepeople of serenwilde had a difficult time paddling their goods for a time after that.

I remember the news of Rhysus as the first Prince of New Celest, being witnessed to have killed (many screamed murdered) the little fae girl. That cause quite an uproar, lasting for a long while.

I remember my first meeting with Goddess Viravain. She was still 'Viravain of the Summer Song' at the time. The only shrine to Viravain I knew of at the time was at Her Flucrux(sp?). So on a routine trip to Avechna's Peak with offerings, how should have I known the Goddess would actually be present at Her chamber?! Gods rarely were as far as I knew. When I entered, Goddess Viravain turned delighted and hugged me! I remember turning pale, fainted, then running out eeping in fright. Soon however I remembered I still had my offerings, and so sheepishly I returned, to a giggling Viravain. (Compared to any of the stern and aloof, a giggling and hugging Goddess is even more scary!) That was a frightening experience.

I remember during the Kethuru Threat, Lady Sonata handed me a cube and asked me to touch it. So I touched it... and found myself in Nil. I touched it again, very very quickly and found myself stranded in a desert. Touching the cube once more, and angelic creatures were passing me by. For a person who had spent most of his life in his commune (and still do, though different commune. Old habits) this was mind numbing fright after mind numbing fright. It took me awhile to get back. And after that misadventure, there was Kethuru to worry about...

I remember kneeling before Lady Gwynevere as she welcomed me into Glomdoring Commune and the Shadowdancers Guild.

(Hmm, on thinking back I realise maybe the reason for my character being an easily frightened person is becuase of the many sudden frightening expriences which had happened in his life. That and many encounters with gravediggers... gravediggers...)

I <3 innocent Viravain.

I can't believe more people didn't realise that Viravain was going to have to turn evil considering how mind-numbingly, diabetes-inducingly, physically sickeningly sweet she was played in the beginning.

I remember when I implied Vix was fat and Lisaera ordered open season on me in Serenwilde. Good times. biggrin.gif

Thats exactly what drew me to Her. But I thought she was going to turn from Summer of Love, to Winter of Nifilhema.

I remember richter hanging out with munsia, and munsia generally being rude to me in the magnagora's commshop cause i was pissed abot people buying out all our cheap comms.

I killed her and richter that day, it was hilarious.

I also remember raiding celest with valek daevos and arilyon, where celest was so smacked down they only had guards at the pool on stationary, so we tainted the whole of the place, broke down all the doors and bought out their commshop just becuase we could...

Also remember things like the tainting of the fae event, and the first time i beat daevos in a spar with my brand spanking new arties, and i ever remember spening 200credits in comms and having to bash 10 cprectres for each reforge to get the best damn weapons possible...ahh those were the days. You could lich and ghost right after, or vitae/ghost....mmm mmmmmmmm.


You only knocked down the comm shop door when you bought most of it out. However, I can tell you I remember the collaberation of buying all of Mag's best comms from a Magnagoran traitor. Schweeet. ELdril and I joked saying they'd realize what was up when we showed up in our gold encrested diamond fullplates and silver claden horses. *g*

I remember sooo much about open beta and back in the day. Was a really good time. Also when THorgal was Paladin and all that stunt. You remember Murph! I'm back right now, hoping to walk into RP like that again. ANd it's taking eons to update my system to be on par. Gorsh.

Hmm. Anyone remember the 'Red Team', 'Blue Team' stuff Magnagora had for a while, and all the 'Meat Shield' titles?

I liked that. Entertaining to watch.

I had Meat Shield Kaileigh, Turtle Tamer. That's the worst I had on Lusternia.

On Achaea Kiella named me.. uh.. "Silent Arien, Kiella's Hetero Lifemate" Or whatever my character's name was at the time.

A chance encounter in the enchantment room...

I remember being a shy, awkward unknown creature.
Until I met Ashteru.

On the first day, all us Celestian noobs dying in Newton then immolating each other so the Pool was at -2000 power. Then all of us trying to go to Earth to get power and getting owned by Visaeris and co. Then someone discovered Astral... problem solved.

IC or OOC? It was obvious OOC in so many ways... it was hard to not realize it IC.
