| 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: |

"I understand, though I know of a vampire who had time for other things as well as feeding. He was an impressive student at the academy of magic. He showed up at just about every class. But prehaps he had an easier time getting his meals," Ace said sounding almost dissapointed. He was hoping that maybe she, Like Zorgn, had an intrest in magic and would prehaps be able to join the academy. "Prehaps I should tell Ace that her interest lies in the other Academy. That would prokove an interesting reaction," Draco thought to himself. |

Phedre shrugged, "perhaps.... perhaps he had an easier time." She tried not to take offense to the statement, and eased the anger building in her chest with slow, calming breaths. She rubbed the back of her neck with one hand, trying to work out the tension of a long day's work. She winced as she hit a tense spot in her neck and managed to spit some words out, "Oh?" she winced again and decided to give her neck a rest, "What is it that you propose I should do?" She looked at Draco and then Bruno, who remained quite quiet. Her eyes were slightly wider than normal, allowing more light into them, making her vision sharper through the dim lighting. |

Bruno's mind was no longer paying attention to the tavern. He blankly looked around as he thought of the arena. Ace's widened in surprise as he heard her question. It could easily be thought that he had a proposal in mind, but he was merely trying get a conversation. It was of course a very bad choice of words. Ace's face contorted in thought as he attempted to think of a proposition. It was Draco who spoke. "Prehaps if you were to refine your skills, you would fine things...easier," Draco said slowly. Draco was reffering to the Academy, but didn't specify which one. |

She rolled her eyes at the child who had obviously read her thoughts on advancin gher weaponry. "You little sprite," she said with a wry smile, "may get yourself into trouble someday..." She let out a sigh and shrugged, "I was thinking along those lines..." she winked at Draco, "oddly enough." She breathed slowly, chewing slightly on her bottom lip. "Where is this Academy?" she asked, blind to the fact that she herself haden't specified which one, nor did he. She automatically assumed they were on the same page and never thought twice about it. She curiously watched Bruno as she awaited an answer, wondering what was in his mind... where he had drifted off to. |

Ace shot Draco an angry glace as Phedre spoke. His mood lightened greatly as she showed interst in the Acadmey. Given that it was the only Academy he spoke of he naturaly thought she spoke of the academy of magic and not the acaademy of arms. Ace smikled as he said, " Why usrely that is a question I can answer for you, knowing the way by heart. You-" "She means he academy of Arms," Draco interrupted coldly. "The smile on Ace's face quickly faded into a frown. "Oh....." Ace said softly. His eyes drifted from Phedre to the table. An obvious look of dissapiontment on his face. |

She let out a sigh and turned her own eyes down on the table. Her hair once again fell on wither side of her face, curtaining it off from people around her. She closed her eyes when she spoke, "I did... mean the academy of arms.... I" she hesitated, hiding a flinch, "I'm not keen on magic." The truth was she was frightened of it. It was a raw power she couldn't comprehend and it sent chills down her spine thinking about it. Most of her scars were left by Mages and their spells... she didn't want to become one of those... one of them... She looked up again, her yellow eyes dull and tired. "I'm sorry if I offended you," she said softly, letting out another sigh, "I never... realized that's the acedemy you worked at.... not that it should matter..." she ran her fingers through her hair and looked around the room for an escape from the topic, "I'm just... sorry. Please forgive me of my rudeness." She hesitated, trying to decide if she should leave or not. She ended remaining in her seat but staring down into her lap, hair loose over her face again. |

"A fear of magic, what an ill fate for her. If only I could visit her dreams," Draco thought to himself as he uncovered a fear of amgic in Phedre's mind. He loved plying with people's fears. It was even more fun than the random illusion he placed in people's mind. His most devious powers were only over the unconsious mind, though a simple spell allowed him to relieve minds of their consciousness. The Land of Dreams was like a limitless play place for him. He had had his fun two minds so far in his play place. Both occasions showed effects on the physical plane. One was turned to an dog in Draco's attempt to make the man think like a dog. The second was turned to an elf and had his memory bent to Draco's whims. If only he could take Phedre to his play place he knew he could have alot of fun with her, but alas, as long as Ace was awake he would not stand for such acts from Draco. Draco once agin turned his attention to another table. Ace slowly attempted to dispell his frown. He spoke slowly as his eyes rose back slowly to Phedre. "Oh...ha ....ha....No offense taken.....There ....is..no ..need for you to ...be ....sorry..." Ace seemed to regain his bearing and now was showing a small smile. "In any case If anyone was rude here it wasn't you," Ace said as his head turned to Draco. Ace turned his head back to Phedre. "So what is it you seek to improve at the academy of arms?" Ace said simply for the sake of conversation even though it was on a topic he would rather not deal with. |

She let out a sigh and didn't meet his eyes. She hated admitting to her weaknesses, but for some reason she put enough trust in the man to tell him. "I am most horrid with any weapon not attached to my body." She realized how odd that must have sounded and tried to explain. "I'm deadly with my fangs," she continued, her voice low, and almost ashamed, "but I only scrape by with weapons... and they are often times much more affective than my... well... ya know." She stared into her lap, feeling like a failure in everyone's eyes. She had just called herself weak, which was against everything she had been taught. You don't gain powerful allies that way. She had to add to that. "I mean, I have skill with martial arts, I'm extremly quick and deadly..." She tried not to roll her eyes at herself, that sounded just as pitiful. She let out a sigh and closed her eyes... this was going downhill. |

Draco halfway listened to Phedre's thoughts, but returned is full attention to her mind as she began to reveal another weakness. "She fears magic and is less skilled in fighting with weapons than Ace of all people! My My she has some issusses. What is this Ally thing she thinks of....does she mean freinds???" Draco thought to himself as he repressed his urge to giggle at her thoughts. Ace disliked the subject, but knew he had to try and cheer Phedre in some way. She seemed so well composed earlier, and now she slowly seemed to be breaking down. "I suppose one as smart as you will quickly learn what you wish from the academy and who knows you might even end up teaching there yourself one day.... er night," Ace smiled. It was diffictult for Ace to say without showing how hard it was to force the words out, but Ace managed fairly well. |

Phedre shook her head and forced a smile on her lips. "This is not where I wanted this convorsation to go," she said with humor in her voice. She looked at Draco and rolled her eyes once more. Thinking purposly so he could hear her, she thought, "if you tell a soul I will gut you faster than you can say abbra kadabra." She let out an easy laugh and moved to put her hands behind her head, "so what is it you do for amusement," she asked Ace. She acted as if the last conversation had not happened at all, watching Ace with flickering yellow eyes. "So... what do you find so..." she held back a shudder, "great about magic?" |

"Such temper, These are ill thoughts to think to one who can give you more mental ailments than currently exist," Draco replied in her thoughts, although his was voice was playful rather than cold. "For Amusment I usually work with my spells. Magic is something I'm talented with and something I've practiced since I was a small child. I'm totaly facinated with magic and arcane secrets. I find it strange that I surpass many well more than twice my age, but it is a funny thought to think when I teach them. I don't think I've taught any younger than myself... other than Draco and Bruno ofcourse," ace replied. He was glad to have sudden imrovement in conversation. |

She nodded in response, looking at the still silent Bruno and then to Draco who she mentally shook her head at, stating silently that she doesn't fear the strengths of a child. She rested her elbow on the table, and her head in her hand, letting her crimson hair swoop down over her face. She turned her eyes back to Ace and gave a small smile, not hiding her fangs anymore, "it is truly facinating that you possess such power," she said softly, her voice pleasent and light, "I can only dream to be as gifted in the physical arts one day." She shrugged and looked down into her empty glass, wondering if she should re -order or not. She ran through throughts in her head, trying to find a new topic of conversation. "So... do you live at the academy?" she finally asked, looking back up at him, her yellow eyes flickering in the dim light. |

Draco resisted the urge to show Phedre that she should fear atleast the mind of this child. Insted he turned his attention a nearby table. Ace was glad to see her change in mood. It was nice to see her smile and seem to be somewhat pleasent. Ace scratched at his balck horns. His horns were well hiden by his long messy jet black hair. "Yes. I work there, sometimes eat there, and I sleep there most of the time so I think it could be said that I live there. ... Do you....," Ace said he thought it might be wise to watch what words he used. "'live' in this city?" Bruno's eyes turned to the empty glass and broke his long silence. "Blood wine? What else is in there besides blood?" Bruno said starng still at the glass. |

Before she could answer Ace's question Bruno spoke. She moves her eyes to him and let a small smile play on her lips, "What's in it?" she said softly, the laughter spreading to her eyes, "Other than blood?" She paused a moment and then answered, "Not much else." She broke into a dark laugh and leaned back in her chair, fully amused with herself. Finally she returned to Ace's question, not really showing any hint of negative emotion. "I dont "live" anywhere," she said matter-of-factly, "I'm more of a nomad, sleeping in caves or shadowed hollows. The odd time I'll slip into an inn and close all the curtains for the day... but... light still seeps through so it isn't vrey good." She shrugged, "But I guess that's... life." |

Bruno loooked up startled when Phedre spoke. It was if he wasn't expecting an answer. He licked his lips as she told him there was not much more than blood in their. Bruno loved the taste of blood and it had been some time since he last got to taste it. Bruno only got to taste it when he fought in the arena, and it had been a while since his last fight. "Well, What ever floats your boat. Atleast you get to move about and seen the sights. What sights have you seen?" Ace said. He knew that he could live the life of a nomad, but it was definately b all means not the life for him. |
