| Welcome to Imythess, the border between dreams and reality. We hope you enjoy your visit. Imythess is a creative writing board where you narrate the story of a character in the medieval land of Imythess, on the planet Chaon. Each topic is an opportunity for your character to interact with the world and its peoples by cooperatively writing pieces of a story with other members, one post at a time. We call this role-playing, because you assume the identity of your character as if it were your own. In order to play, you must register an account for each character you would like to write about, and begin their tale by filling out their basic profile information: Race (human, elf, demon, etc.), class (warrior, mage, etc.), physical appearance, and any other personal details you would like to describe. You are also encouraged to come up with some background history information for what your character's life has been like up to the point at which their story in Imythess begins. There is no approval process or application required to join, so long as you follow the rules then you are free to write whatever character details you choose. Registration is simple, fast, and completely free. Create a character now! If you're already a member, you can log into your account below: |

A shuffle and a bang as Kli barged in the door. "Orcs.. They're all the same.." She muttered. "They don't have brains, or at least they don't use them.." She said to herself as she sat on the stool. Her dress was soaked in blood, yet she appeared not to be hurt except for a huge scar down her leg that was just starting to stop bleeding. Kli's blue-ish grey eyes looked to the bartender and did something that you wouldn't see her usually do. "Bartender.. Can I have something strong? Whiskey perhaps?" She asked groggily. Her red and black short hair was again a mess. She wore a mud and blood stained 'white' dress, a brown cloak filled with holes, and boots. It was weird to see this little girl who seemed to be only seventeen starting to pour whiskey down her throat. She was tierd. After a while it sounded as someone came in the door. She looked and there was a white stallion. The stallion that always seemed to follow her everywhere she went. "Out! You can't come in here boy.." Kli got up, pulling the horse into the stables and walking back into the tavern. It was weird also that she used to be princess kli, but now looks like a peasent. She had money of course, she just didn't care to use it on material possesions. She drank another shot of whiskey and washed it down with some water. She wasn't drunk but she felt better. She looked around as people danced, not noticing the people in the shadows studying her and whispering quietly to each other. |

Skorne sat in the shadows of the Elfsong Tavern, drinking from his own glass. He refused to drink from something the tavern gave to him, it would be to easy for someone to put something in it. He watched as the girl covered in blood entered the tavern and ordered a drink. a heavy scent washed over him and he knew that she had battled orcs recently. Only orc blood carried that heavy scent that now spread throughout the tavern. What girl was this, that she battled against orcs and still lived to by drinks. While it was true that orcs weren't the brightest creatures, they believed in traveling in numbers. He slowly stood up and wrapped his cloak around him, hiding his identity. He covered his face with a veil to hide his eyes from anyone that would look at them. He made his way over to the bar where Kli stood, wondering who this strange girl was, here face seemed somewhat familiar to him, like he had seen it before. He walked up to the bar and stood there, as if considering what to drink. Finally, he spoke. "So what is a girl like yourself doing hunting orcs?" |

Lilith was baking cookies when she heard a commotion outside. She put the last of the cookies in the oven and walked out into the bar area. Scanning the room, she spotted and old friend who was currently covered in blood. She immediately rushed to her side, grabbing a towel off the counter in the process. She used create water and began to wash off Kli's wounds, not even paying attention the the man that had been speaking with her. "Oh god Kli, are you okay? Tell me what happened!" She continued gently scrubbing her wounds and then began trying to scrub the blood out of the once white dress."You look a mess! Tonight you should either stay with me here at the Inn or allow me to walk you home. I know you don't need protection, but I would feel a ton better if you allowed me this small duty." She got up from her knees and sat at the chair across from Kli. She placed the towel in front of the girl to allow her to take care of the rest of the wounds herself. |

"I'm fine.. And I don't have a 'home' per say anyway.. And I can fix my own wounds.." She muttered tierdly. She tried, but her healing powers quickly deseased. "After I rest.." She said quietly. She looked at skorne. "I didn't hunt them.. They hunted me.. I just killed them.. There's a difference.." She said, sighing heavily before looking at the bar. She knew more would be on their way, more and more would come. More would come to try and kill her. She didn't exactly know why they would, but she was a little out of it. She held her head, closed her eyes, and ignored the people wanting her to bathe the terrible stench of blood and grime. She then looked to Lilith. "You are very nice and all, don't take this the wrong way, but I'm not dead. I will die when my time comes and nothing will change that.. I cannot stay too long.. I'm not going to put anyone in danger.. I know, I sound like a stubborn old fool to you.. But I'm only here to rest a little and then ride.." She said, not caring to bother with the blood, or her hair, or her dress. She looked around before looking back at Skorne. "I've met you before haven't I?" She asked, scencing familiarity. |

"Yes I beleive that you have, I was traveling through the ruins of a city when I heard you talking to yourself. So, it seems as if your nuetrality is being put to the test. You have had trouble along your travels, and the world has made you weary. This is because that is what the world does, it wears away at your heart until you wish for death, but cannot attain it." Skorne was perplexed by Kli, she was strange indeed to his way of thinking. She had so many questions, yet she refused help from people that could probably answer some of those questions. He probably would have been better off leaving her alone and returning to his table, but something prevented him from doing so. "So, you intend to leave the town in the hopes that no one will be in danger, has it occured to you that the orcs may come here anyway? Even if you aren't here, they may see talas as a prize that would be worth the danger to try and take. You would be able to help the town out by staying here and helping ot protect the city." |

"I wasn't just talking to myself, dear, confused, Skorne, I was talking the ones past.. They know.. When you die you understand everything.. Well, most of the dead do.. Vampires don't really count because they stand of the fine line between life and death.." She said, shrugging. "At least that's what I believe.. Because death is the opposite of life.. Like good is to evil.. Like water is to wine.. Again, it's quite silly, but I don't care anymore. The world makes everyone weary eventually... Every day is a stuggle for either life or death, good or evil..." Her eyes looked around quietly. "I may think of death.. But I do not wish it so anymore.." "Who said I intended to leave? I just said I'm not staying the night here.. I know orcs may follow... Things always seem to either want to kill me, or make me want to kill it. The people wouldn't believe that I could save them anyway.. Some think that women are the least of the humans, lower than humans, or just possesions to be kept on a high shelf just to look pretty. They wouldn't let me fight. I mean, sure, I've killed trolls, orcs, wild animals, and things that try to kill me, but I still don't think they would've cared for me to try.. They have to be men, strong and proud. Maybe I should just let them try.." She said. |
