So. This is a thing which exists...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAsCt4GF6WU

...And this is the filk song for FC which I did based on the thing, and it's after midnight so this seems like a very good idea! Sorry if the thing does not include your character. The thing only has three verses. Also sorry if you can't actually figure out who the lines are talking about, it's difficult to be symbolic and obvious at the same time. I (or anybody really) could write another for the other characters, if you want. That could be fun. (I also wanted to create a thread for Floating Castile Filk, but I thought that might be over stepping my boundaries.)

An exile seeking to rise from his fall,
A crow girl guiding the tempest to war,
A ruler who hides in her strength and her pride,
A realm in the sky,
You fight or you die,

A shepherd taken away from the farm,
A killer follows his savior's call,
A self-assured prayer from a man without fear
A world laced in lies,
You fight or you die,

A robed knight bound to the library halls,
A sister found never human at all,
A squire who can't see what his power is to be,
A trial in the sky,
We win or we die.

Okay, we got the post to finally post but it was NOT EASY. We ended up being well over the character limit unfortunately, so a lot of stuff had to get cut, including whole scenes (short ones, but still) involving the whole antagonist of the chapter. Even after cutting everything it still ended up being over 60K characters XD, so the last twenty minutes I spent rewording sentences to get it just BARELY under the limit. What can I say, we like to ramble on and on. Unfortunately the chapter probably reads more chopped up than it should, but it is what it is.

in the course of typing this reply, my foot fell alseep. I hate that feeling :[

We have the stuff we cut, but not the stuff we edited (which was kind of stupid of me), but yeah if you wanted to read the creepy villain being creepy we could share it or something

I had this idea and decided to do it just for fun. I hope you enjoy ^u^

Humans
Image

Strength: 3
Intelligence: 3
Wisdom: -1 to 4
Dexterity: 3
Constitution: 2

Cathán, Retired Orc Warrior: "Puny humans? Hah! You must be joking, right? In my last job, I fought a trio of humans who were trying to break into the place I was supposed to protect. There was an armored warrior who matched my attacks slash by slash and didn't shut up talking about "honor" and "justice". Another one was a slippery rogue who kept trying to backstab me, and every time I turned to face him he was already behind me. Finally there was a mage who initially was only a nuisance and then BAM! Giant rock to the face! That's how I got this godawful chronic back pain."

Kermit, Goblin Explosive Technician: "Humans? I'd say they are pretty smart despite being so monkey-like. I can say they are monkey-like, just like goblins are lizard-like, right? Eh, anyways, I have never heard of a human group without some kind of craftsmen or artisan. Carpentry, masonry, leatherwork, needlework, jewelry, ironsmithing, you name something and they can work with it. And they are pretty good too. Humans are also great artists when it comes down to literature. Between you and me, I personally love the stories of knights in distant, magical lands, trying to survive against all kinds of strange and exciting things."

Dreamlings, All of Them: "They are fun to play with!" "Before they arrived we were lonely-" "-well, we did have each other-" "-but otherwise we had no one-" "-to play with. But now we do!" "We bring humans here while they sleep!" "Because while they are asleep they can dream!" "And while they are dreaming-" "-we get to play games with them!" "Fun games!" "Happy games!" "Exciting games!" "All kinds of games!" "Except nightmares!" "No nightmares, no, they are bad!" "Ugly!" "Scary!" "Only dreams, no nightmares!" "Except for angry stick girl! She gets nothing!" "Oh! Hey you, wanna play a game?"

Woof, Timber Wolf Pup: "H-Humans? I've heard stories about them, but they don't actually exist, d-do they? They say humans are these faeries who sometimes expontaneously appear wandering around forests. They... They have shining stone skin, can thrown magical spikes that kill from afar and can control f-fire. Fire! If that wasn't unholy enough they also feed off brains, enthralling wolves and other creatures into becoming their slaves. Umh... E-Excuse me, I'm g-gonna go find my m-mom."

Caerbannog, Pet Behemoth: "Taaaaasty."

Bear, Wild Bear: "Indeed they are, my good fellow."

Crazy Mike: "Well, humans-Wait a second. Why are you asking me about humans if you're only interviewing other races? Is there something you'd like to tell me?"

Danger Level by Itself: 1 to 7
Danger Level in Group: 3 to 9

Okay so, everyone who’s interested in the Ender’s game idea. There’s a sidestory thread posted to the subforum (or it will be soon). Please make a post declaring your waking up in/sudden arrival to the twenty-fifth floor. The instructions are in the OP.

Everyone else, no worries. You’ll get quests too. I just want to know who’s in and who isn’t in.

Okay I originally posted Marcus still having his weapons. I have fixed this error now so there's nothing to worry about.

Right, so I imagined that Fern was partially woken up BY the scream, so he wouldn't realize that somebody had screamed due to being...distracted. Also, if anyone wants to run into him, feel free.

I'm tempted to have Likovya start interacting with the people running to see why there's a screaming girl, but that interaction would likely be her attempting to strangle them and shouting for someone to find her knives. Also, I'm not sure whether eli would want to deal with everyone trying to figure things out before she gets to assign quests.

So, me, Xana, Scarab and other people were/are discussing on the chat right now who'd lead Severed Storm while everyone who could possibly lead is away. We've been from PCs to NPCs, but I think it only would make sense to bring this up to the GMs.

Could be a good time to bring in the new and improved Salvantas to help lessen the chaos. The Heroic Forces

Wasn't Salvantas stuck as being Jadas? .-.

That would be no good, right? Right? :|

Well maybe Hector should wait then! :P
especially since he's nominally probably in charge of the guild I don't know why people are obsessed with always having a specific chain of command can't you just have the same old people in charge even when they're on vacation? Weird.

During his off screen time he has gained a eyepatch and lost his multiple personalities. He is just pure Salvantas now, althrough with added moral ambiguity. In other words he is fine to help out.

Posting this without previously talking with Xana: I don't think our quest will get done in time, so I'd like either to ask for an extension (I think at most until the weekend, because every day that isn't Monday or Tuesday can have me writing even if a little) or to apologize for being unable to do it on time. Sorry.

Announcing that I'm dropping from the quest Lost in Space for lack of time for finishing it, and stuff. Sorry.

I am officially withdrawing myself from FC, thank you to the GM's for creating an amazing game and allowing me to put characters into the world. I can't wait to see what happens in the story that has been created. Thank you again.
