Re: The CHALLENGE continues!
I... actually didn't after all. Sorry, derp moment
(for a moment there, I got you mixed up with C'nor - you're both writer old-timers who returned after an absence, with a name change thrown into the mix. It retroactively threw me off)
Also, Kerfuffle, it's still your turn to choose the theme. If nothing has been chosen tomorrow, anyone can chime in with a themeLast edited by Glass Mouse; 2013-04-04 at 02:03 PM.

Re: The CHALLENGE continues!
Kay guys! I'm offering prizes now too! Yay!
I'm doing it because this way, even if I find I can't keep up with the 6 pieces per week rule again, I will still be creating stuff and keeping connected with the Challenge.
So, here's how it's gonna go:
- Every 5 continuous weeks you achieve I'll write a poem for you, and it will based off a prompt of your choice.
- Then, every 20th week (for those who make it that far) of non-stop completion, I'll write a short story about topic/plot of your choice. Your request for the story can be as specific and detailed as you would like.

Re: The CHALLENGE continues!
That sound like fun, Viera, so I'm going to make a similar offer because you guys are cool and I don't want to just up and leave totally. So yeah, feel free to drop off short story prompts, challenges, ideas etc. and I'll do some of the cool ones since I want to work a bit on my prose.

Re: The CHALLENGE continues!
They're cool! I may abuse them for worlbuilding or similar when I qualify
Only thing is, maybe place some guidelines/restrictions on the short story? It's hard to see how much one can ask for.
I can find a story, so I'll assume it worksSpoiler

Re: The CHALLENGE continues!
I'll let someone know if and when they are making obscene requests, which probably won't happen very often. So yeah, I think that finalizes all the details, and it's ready to be put into the FAQ. :D
Also, there's only one story up, so yay!
All finished for the week! Three poems, and 773 words of character backstory. Feels good to be back in the game.LGBTitP

Re: The CHALLENGE continues!
I'm hoping it's OK to submit in here. The images are really large and might break your screen, so I put the links as well as the embedded images.
Spoiler1. Dancing, 252 words.
Spoiler
I love dancing. When I'm onstage, everything is perfect. I choose every detail of my costume. Makeup conceals every irregularity in my skin, transforming my face into a smooth mask under the bright lights. But most of all, each movement is coordinated and exact. I actually have control.
It's not an easy task. Most of the time, my body feels like a marionette with rubber strings my mind struggles to command. I halt, I stutter, I twitch. I can't keep still.
But when I dance, it's completely different. My mind and body aren't separate entities, they're one and the same. I can feel myself — my soul — all through myself. My legs, my feet, my fingers! All are obedient and cooperative.
My mother enrolled me in a dance class when I was little. I guess she thought I just had a lot of energy I needed to express. I learned to express myself through dance, but my everyday clumsiness didn't get any better. At first she was disappointed, but then she attended my class's recital. She saw what I could do when I dance.
I can't really remember the first time I tried dancing. I don't know if I could dance from the beginning or if I had to struggle. All I know now is that the second I start, I suddenly know how to move.
Dancing is hard, but I love it. It's the only time I'm in control, and more importantly, it's the only time I really feel whole.

Re: The CHALLENGE continues!
Submitting here is fine. Speaking of which...
899 words of stuff from another forum:
Spoiler"The night-scent -"
"Is not our most pressing concern right now," Magus interjected, the crystals floating around her flaring a harsh red. "That would be the person who just climbed up here with us," she went on, turning to face Sadah as she spoke. "Now, tell me - who are you, chaos-born? And why did you come here?"
Slaughter raised her spear, lines of crackling void dancing around it, and her tattoos flaring with black light, clearly displeased at the interruption, though she remained silent, seeming to withhold judgement on Sadah herself.
"While she can be a bit brusque, she has a point - are you after us for some reason? And what are you doing climbing around on rooftops here if you're not? Looking for a way into the bank?", Longshot asked sharply, pulling a short, odd-looking rifle from her back, where it was hooked next to what was clearly a sniper rifle, to one familiar with modern technology, and, though she didn't actually aim it at Sadah just yet, likely leaving little doubt she could quickly do so, if necessary.
"Eh... Kess gets along better with Keika than I do. I'll be out of there after an hour, at most, and I'll be happy to show you around afterward. Unless you'd prefer to be on your own?", Merani replied, smiling at Sadah, then looking up at a tap on her shoulder from her half-sister.
Kessia, meanwhile, had been drawing something or other, and handed it to Merani, whispering something into her ear as she did, which received a nod, followed by her going to hand it to Sadah; should she accept it, she'll see it's a rather nicely done drawing of herself.
Mujona turned to glare at Willow, eyes flashing red for a moment, and her fingernails lengthening just a touch, electricity from her horns arcing to strike the ground in front of the newcomer. "And how would you know what we can do, little fool? You look as though you could barely even lift her, much less get her there faster than we can" she snapped, hair starting to move as though in a strong wind, despite the fact that, at this level, the air was quite still. "Besides, even if you could, can you heal her as you do? And how, if you plan to repeat your earlier performance, do you intend on landing safely through a window while carrying an injured girl, and not jar her far more than is safe? I somehow doubt that even if you know what Ketrabel and I are, you could carry her while she is ethereal, and that would be the only way I see to get her back safely with that plan."
With that, she turned her back on the Wisp Fae, pointedly ignoring her, and extended her arms again, Ketrabel starting to draw life out of her, and channel it into Sadah, as she did, likely starting to knit the worst wounds shut, and return any damaged bones to their proper places, as a result.
"Ketrabel and I were in the same caravan as you," Mujona explains, smiling at him, and nodding. "Though I doubt you recognize us... She looks rather different when enfleshed, and of course, when she is, I'm not," she goes on, shrugging, and waving her companion forward.
As they approached the tower, however, they found a rather battered girl - one that Reawyn quickly picked up, despite the fact that it was obviously a struggle for her, ignoring the fact that there were others there who would likely have less difficulty...
As such, Ketrabel shimmered past Reawyn, laying an ethereal hand on the girl who was being carried, and, when the more solid girl came around the other side, her as well, preparing to try to heal the unfortunate newcomer.
"I'll take her," Mujona said softly, frowning a bit, and extending her arms, clearly not being very comfortable with someone who was having so much difficulty just lifting her carrying the injured woman. "The last thing we need is for you to fall on the stairs or something and get injured yourself, besides the further damage that would do to her... Besides, I have some healing capability myself, in a way, and that'll make it easier for me to use it."
"We are not leaving you," Mujona said softly, slipping onto Spite with Reawyn, in front of her and Sadah, and facing them both, going to take her hand, and give it a gentle squeeze, Ketrabel continuing to channel life into the Changeling as all this took place. "As for where you are, Lantern Tower. Where you will be safe. If nothing else, Ketrabel and I are... Talented at assisting in escapes. And we know how to survive in the wilderness."
Ketrabel smiles down at her as well, nodding, and becoming just solid enough for Sadah to be able to feel the ghost's hand resting lightly on her forehead. "You have no need to worry for us. We take you in of our own will, with an acceptance of all that may bring; whatever price it holds, we choose to pay."
Some of those present, particularly Pierre, may recognize that as a modernized version of an archaic form of oath, one often used by mages when working spells that might impact others, or people making choices that could greatly affect their community...
470 words of fluff for a Total War faction:
SpoilerMilitary: The combat potential of the hive, whether from mutations for such things, biotech weapons, or other factors.
Espionage: The capacity of the hive to hide their own actions, and spy upon others.
Resources: Natural and manufactured or salvaged resources that the hive can use. (Can be increased by the use of Mutation or Biotech with the proper justification, as well as by discovering natural resources that can be used. Functions as Economy.)
Biotech: The strange organic machines that the Elsanni use in place of normal technology. (Functions much like Mutation, though it cannot increase Psionics, and they usually focus on different things for their traits.)
Mutation: How well, and rapidly, the hive can alter itself to take on new characteristics. (Allows for the increase of Military, Espionage, Biotech, Assimilation, and Psionics, as well as the addition of new traits.)
Assimilation: How well the hive brings in people or technology, and takes over new infrastructure. (Allows for capturing enemy stats while taking over a settlement.)
Psionics: The power and prevalence of psionics within the hive. (Can supplement many other stats, and be used for various projects on its own, depending on the justification. It's also what keeps each hive in contact with the others without physically going back and forth, and thus outlying hives may end up cut off from others if it's targeted.)
We Are Legion: Each settlement has its own stat points, many traits are unique to settlements until spread, and all act independently of each other in each EoT; while this means that each settlement has greater flexibility, it also means that they have less in the way of capacity for unified action.
Enae: Enae are fierce anti-infantry units, capable of launching hollow spines filled with a potent acid, and burrowing deep into the ground, allowing them to bypass certain obstacles and ambush those who wander into the area after they are dug in. Points in Mil. may be declared Enae, and thereby gain appropriate bonuses, but once they are, they remain so until they are lost.
Gholarin: Flying siege-tanks, essentially, which spew spheres composed of liquid explosives, the Gholarin are ineffective against fast-moving targets, but excellent at bombarding cities and entrenched foes. Points in Mil. may be declared as Gholarin, and recieve the appropriate bonuses, but those points remain Gholarin until destroyed.
Thrux: Thrux are ponderous carriers; while equipped with heavy biotech plating and ion weaponry, as well as numerous weapons which mimic the natural capabilities of the Gholarin, their primary purpose is to serve as launching points for Thraen or Gholarin. Points in Mil. which are declared Thrux have their speed halved, but are much harder to destroy, and allow Thraen or Gholarin units to enter battle without having to tire themselves with travel, as well as get to areas that they normally could not.
291 words of character entry, mostly weapon and armor designs:
SpoilerAlias: Lock
Gender: Female
Race/Species: Genmod Human
Age: Apparently mid-twenties, but actually considerably younger, due to being a forced-growth pseudo-clone
Alignment: TN
Class/Profession: Soldier
Power Rating: D to D+
Description: Her, when not working; otherwise, she looks approximately the same, but with the equipment listed below. (The Mauser and C17F are generally with her at all times.):
[A tektek was here]
Equipment: Mauser C96 pistol, in 9mm with detachable stock. She has two magazines (twenty rounds) of normal ammunition, one of which is in it, five incendiaries, and five HE rounds.
Kaelen Arms C17F (type unknown; most closely resembles a carbine in overall shape and design); a coilgun, it normally fires 48 small triangular flechettes per shot, and has an internal containment system capable of holding 20 shots worth. It can also fire armor-piercing 'darts' in three-round bursts, and holds up to 10 such groups - 3 on each side and 4 on the top. At present, it is full, and she has 9 'darts', as well as 240 flechettes (5 shots). It has a detachable scope, currently removed, primarily intended for use with the longer-range 'darts'. It can be adjusted for single-shot, burst, or automatic fire.
Phoenix Mercenary Supplies carbon-fiber body-armor (chest-plate, gloves, and leg-pieces). The outer shell of the chest-plate is made from a plastic-carbon composite, interwoven with carbon-titanium strands, in an interlaced-overlap pattern for strength. It has an inner layer of carbon-graphite, with a backing composed entirely of carbon-plastic. The gloves are several thin, interwoven, layers of carbon-graphite, designed primarily to allow the handling of heated objects. The leg-pieces are simply two layers of carbon-plastic and carbon-titanium, much like the outer shell of the chest-plate.
