Young Writers Society

You agreed with me knuklehead!

@janika you kinda did. But whatever, everyone can be annoying at times *cough, cough* including me.

So, the words I posted. There is rhyme and reason to it. I do have the translation of the words and what they mean. Caliey can have it if she wants since it's her storybook and I will leave it to her to decide whether everyone should find out here in the DT and leave the characters in the dark or whether it should be a surprise for everyone.

@Skyguy, I hope you don't mind adding my end onto the the tale.

The group doesn't have to beat Marcus, but I'm mentioning some rewards if they decide to deal with the Undead Sucker.

@Stellabeam. I just read your post and wanted to ask if you would edit that little part about my character snorting and what she said, please.

That was kinda my idea dante. All powerful wizard has to have some powerful stuff. And I mentioned him being a fire wizard, so if the group wants to fight him, razley can get over her fear of fire.

Heck. I might as well post. Everyone else did.

*Wonders how in the world we went from hardly ever posting to everyone posting in one day*

It's not a bad thing, though.
And what's this about bad Fire wizard we have to beat?
(I feel like maybe this is something that could have been asked or at least mentioned to me before it became fact?)

Ah well, I guess I better go and read the posts.

Okay- so I read all the previous posts and got caught up and everything.
I think that Marcus can stay- it's a good twist and I think it will be a good way for Razley to be challenged and in a way have to prove her worth.

But in your post, @Skyguy it was a bit confusing. I think (correct me, and the post, if I'm wrong) but it sounded like you were saying that the wizard and elf queen were siblings. That wouldn't work. The races are separate and do not mix (Except the Writers- who can marry whoever they want since they're alone. But their kids will be fully whatever race the other one was, and none of the Writer's powers will be passed down to them.)

So you could make them all be really good friends or something, but not siblings.

Also- Aryk is arrogant and haughty- but he's not rude. He wants to unite the fellowship as much as he can, and he wouldn't be complaining about stories, especially since he was the one who asked them to share information.
So, while he certainly has his character flaws, at this point in the story his main concern is getting the group together.
You don't need to change the pots, but just keep that in mind. He's not going to be as rude on the outside as his thoughts sometimes seem.

Also- while I like creativity and I don't want to be nitpicky and bossy, I would like it if I could hear about plot twists beforehand? A PM, or even just a message on my wall or something. I will most likely say yes anyway, but it's nice to not feel lost in my own storybook.

(Hope that didn't sound like I was mad or anything, cause I'm not. Well, I'm tired, but that's irrelevant...)

What race is the writer anyways?

So, @Cailey, I've been contemplating a bit of twist when it comes to Wizard kind, I was thinking since they are so focused on Magic, there bodies actually develop slower than Human Bodies and Minds. Though while Razley is indeed smart, she has the mental state of one compared to a 6 or 7 year old.

Edit: I would like to move the story along by going into the next day and beginning into the Shaded Forest. If anyone has anything to add do it now.

@Stellabeam: DID NOT!!!!!!!!

@janika DID TOOOO!!!!!!

DID I miss something?

yeah, Dante, I think you can send everyone to sleep and then off to begin the journey through the forest.

We don't want to encounter the Fire wizard- at least not yet and not until I get some more information. (hint, hint)

But, as we get into the darker parts of the forest we should certainly test Razley's pixy fighting skills. And maybe some kind of wild animal? I'm guessing Azya would be the most effective at defending another animal?

Thoughts, ideas?

Oh, and @Dante that sounds good. I can't remember the age range I had in the beginning, but I was thinking that wizards live longer, which would fit with what you're saying of the slower development.
So yes. Give her a six or seven year old mind.

And @Stellabeam the Writers are a race of their own. At the moment I don't have much about them except for spells and the job of keeping the records of the city. But if you have any other ideas for how else the race of the Writer could be unique?
Oh- and I think I mentioned this at the beginning- but the Writers are normally the only ones who can read or write. Wizards probably would have gone through training to learn to read, which is why Razley likes reading, and some of the others might have, too.
Just, if you're going to have your character write, maybe include a mention of why they went through the trouble of learning, since it's rare for anyone except a Writer to know how to read. And unheard of for anyone- even Wizards- to know how to write.

Wow, that was long, sorry guys! I just keep thinking of things that might be helpful to know.

Who's posting next?
