I'm looking forward to getting into this IC, though we had a fun discussion about it on a clan last night. I've got a theory(s)...

For the longest time, I've been wanting to join Vira's order because of those homunculi. losewings.gif

Well, they allowed Hoaracle's invasion mob to be willowisps, so...


And Maylea's are dryads, and I assume Lisaera's are sylphs, so it's not without precedent.

You lucky little piglet! An iron ticket materializes in your hand!
You have been appointed to the rank of Comrade in the Commissariat of Transdimensional Maintenance!

I was pretty taken aback when this happened - had no idea it would trigger all that. (except for the iron ticket - that was coincidence)

Very awesome though. smile.gif

They are.

I remember from raiding them.

Awesome wedding is awesome. Congrats to Shulamit and Pesukaru.
Shiri2010-12-07 08:21:24
The Seren gods' fae are all actually those things though. Homunculi are different. Maybe I'll have to wake up and go bug some competent Glooms for answers again. ninja.gif

Squee! Marriage so shiny! If sudden! I'll just...wear the gloves and boots and veil and stuff later, just like...whenever, heeeh! I was going to show the log of the wedding, but dang, I'm just looking, and it's insanely long (from my perspective)

Aww, wish I was there!

Marriage is, indeed, shiny.

And very paperwork-heavy suspicious.gif

I don't believe we've ever before awarded a purely scholarly piece as
the Bardic Winner, but there's a first time for everything -- check out
the extremely detailed "Astrology Ephemeris" by Tsianina!

==( Bardic Winner )==
Tsianina


For the record, she totally deserves this. This thing is scary.

That totally reminds me of the Nautical Almanac ohmy.gif

Here's what it looks like. The similarity is scary.

Edit: Gah, big picture bad. I gotta Lrn2Preview.

The tables at the end were just "samples"; I've already published the first every-decade almanac that's really just like that. These kinds of ephemerical almanacs date back to Babylonian times, possibly as early as the Bronze Age since some of them have continuity to Sumerian names. Check out some of these.

You and your astro work! wub.gif

Also, a rave for Lilian. She knows why. superninja.gif

As much as I dislike dying to a group of raiders (and, it was like watching the Keystone Cops reading over the log), it sure gave me a bunch of things to add to my combat system and keep in mind for the next defense.
