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.

(Me on the other account) Lol, isn't it?

But, yeah, I'm starting to agree with Kli... If we have demi-gods AND Royalty, we're gonna have a serious problem with power. Too many people will have it and such. Now I am preferring Royalty over demi-Gods. Lol. We have Gods, so why should we need demi-Gods? *shrugs* I know they're not as powerful, but still...

I like the both ideas. Royalty would most likely be more fun though. :)

But like, later on then they should add the Demi-Gods. It's a neat idea and allows more aspects of nature to be chosen!

I don't know, I've let this simmer in my mind for a few days and I still like the royalty idea a lot more than demi-gods. I just see so much potential for the kings, queens, lords, and ladies and not much for the half-dieties. I really don't count since I seem to be a stickler about this, but meh, we'll see what happens.

This is such a wonderful idea! I love it! And indeed, it fits Imythess very well. I mean, every magical kingdom has royalty, right? :)

*nods* Selly is right. Every magical kingdom needs a king/queen, Lord/Lady, etc. Who controls the people?! Lol.

Honestly I do like both ideas which is why I voted 'both' but that really isn't whats bugging me. I actually have a few things on my mind so lets see if I can say them right like the way they sound in meh head.

First off: I don't think you should make the mods. the demi-gods. That limits the chances of others holding positions. If you have different people it would be more varied and, in my mind, I think it better that way.

Second off: If you do decide to add royalty and stuff then I don't think people(like the normal rpers without those positions) should be allowed to say that there character is a prince/princess/king/etc. It would just get confusing, or in my mind it would. I mean really, did we ever hear about kings/queens/etc running around acting like commoners in the middle ages/medieval era? If you really want to have a royal character(but not hold a position here in Imy) or whatever then I think you should have to gain Laoura's permission first and give her some reasons why you want yer charry to be it.

Third off: Technically, this is more a question. But how would you go about picking those who you would dub 'royal'? Would there end up being requirements that the characters have to meet?

Please note, none of that was meant to offend anyone if it somehow managed to insult you. That was just my opinion on the matter.

I definitely don't think the mods should become demi gods. One reason is because being a 'Knight of Imythess' is an OOC position and doesn't really hold any real power IC.

I definitely agree people shouldn't be allowed to make royal characters. I've seen people do this before, and I think it just sort of messes up what other people and what Laoura, has created for the land of Imythess and how its run.

I think both would be awesome (trying not to eye the 'inspiration' positions greedily...), because I think it would add a ton of ideas and flavor to Imythess. Royalty would make things soooooo cool because it would make Imythess a lot more 'real' (so will the web-site, from what I've heard about it).

Demigods could be fun too. I think royalty is the best of the two, but I still voted both, because I think theyd both work. :D

Good points you two. All I can say is that nowhere did it say you cannot make royal characters....so let's not offend those that did *looks at self* I made one of my characters Princess of the Amazons. But that's back in her world...so it kind of doesn't count.

And I think with Royalty, it should be judged on...

Far most!: Activeness

Second: Rping ability

Thridly: Your character should have some type of royal background. Having a random pyro from hell doesnt' necisarilly strike me as royalty....

Those are my oppinions, get offended and i'll kill you :D
