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.

Skorne made his way down the street in the villge of Kellen, eyes running over everything. They were never still fro a moment, always searching the shadows or the faces of the people passing him. He had travelled to this place because of a rumor that he had heard. The one that he was seeking had been seen here several times, apparently, she made frequent visits. He wasn't sure if the rumor was true, but he was going to look here anyway. He would not stop searching until she had been found and destroyed. He looked for a person by the name of Adsero, and nothing would stop him from finding her. He remembered what she had done those years ago, his memory restored from the fight that had occured not to long ago. He stopped in the middle of an intersection, trying to decided where he should go from here. Those this was a small town, it had several hiding places t=where people could go to avoid being seen. He could hardly cover every square inch of the place in hopes of finding Adsero.

James sat on top of a rooftop looking down at the people, he took a cork pipe out of his back pocket and put it in his mouth, he leaned against the cold stonewall and watched the people pass while striking a match.

Adsero leaned against the wall of the tavern, watching the man who seemed to be looking for something. She took one last swig of her flask and headed after him. Anything he was looking for she could probably find; she had burned this town down about three times after all. She lightly tapped the man on the shoulder. "Looking for something Sir? I may be of some help if thats the case." Today was a good day so she decided to lean towards the good side and help him out.

(James, try to write more or insert yourself into the situation. It's hard to work off of two lines.)

Skorne turned around when someone tapped him on the shoulder, wondering who it was. He was astonished to see Adsero, then realized that she probably didn't recognize him. It had been years since he had seen her, but he knew what she looked like. Skorne realized he could use this to his advantage in the future. "Uh, yes, I was looking for someone that I had heard came here often. I had some news that I need to tell them." Skorne had decided to feed Adsero some false information, so that he could stirke when she was least expecting it.

He seemed suprised to see her but she didn't think much of it. She listened to his reply. "Ok. Do you know what this person looks like or what their name is?" She cocked her head to the side and stared at him. He seemed familiar but she didn't have the slightest idea who he was. Maybe someone she had seen at a passing glance or something like that. It didn't worry her much, she saw lots of people every day. "I'm Adsero by the way. Nice to meet you."

"If you are Adsero, then you are the person that I am looking for. I bring word of danger for you. An elf by the name of Ahren is chasing after you. You burned down his house when he was very young, it occured on the same night that his family was killed by a demon." Skorne was afraid that if adsero believed his tale, then he would start laughing. He could gain her tust, and then betray her when she least expected it. He doubted it would work out perfectly, but the beginnings of a plan were forming in his mind.

"Fires damned I hate elves!" She looked at the mans pointy ears. "No offense to you of course. They just wont leave me be and it pisses me off." She sighed loudly. "If he comes then he comes. I probably did burn his house after all, especially if he lived in Kellen. There's no use in worrying over it." She looked to the man. "Thank you for the news. Would you like to stay till he comes Mr...?"

"My name is Skorne, I will gladly stay with you, since I know what Ahren looks like." Skorne was almost exstatic with excitment, Adsero had no idea who he really was, this was going to be even easier than he had thought it would be. He looked around, as if watching to see if Ahren was already here, and turned back to face Adsero. "So, where are you staying at?"

"I don't really stay anywhere. Sometimes I sleep at the ruins but most times I just wander around and sleep in an alley or something. Anywhere you wanted to go?" She didn't look around but she was trying harder to hear for someone and lone fireballs could be seen at the gates. She wasn't going to stall this Ahren but she wasn't going to be caught unaware either. If Adsero wasn't so trusting and had a better memory she may have recognized Skorne as the real enemy but alcohol had taken a toll on her mind if not the rest of her body and she wasn't exactly the sharpest dagger in the smith to begin with. She simply looked at Skorne and smiled. "We can go to the tavern if you wanted."

Skorne smiled at her, glad that this opportunity was presenting itself. "That would be just fine, it has been a long trip up here." Skorne thought about how he could work this to his advantage. This tavern would surely serve some kind of alcoholic drink, he just had to make sure Adsero had enough of it. Then he could get revenge for what she had done all those years ago. Somewhere in the back of his mind, a shadow of doubt spread, something wasn't right about this. It seemed like he was forgetting something of major importance that could change his entire outlook on the situation, but what?

"The tavern it is then." She walked towards the tavern, assured he was following, and smiled at the bartender as she walked in. He groaned loudly. Did you have to come back? Couldn't you just go away instead of coming back here to drink my ale and burn my bar? "I'd miss you and the ale too much. Besides, you you like me deep down there. It's hidden beneath your common sense." She took a seat at the bar and turned slightly to see both Skorne and the bartender. The bartender simply shook his head and handed her a mug of ale then turned to Skorne. And what'll you have?

"I will have some ale also." Skorne took his mug with a nod of thanks, and pretended to take a deep drink. He didn't let a drop of the ale cross his lips, he planned on staying sober, so that he could act at the first chance he got to slay Adsero, and end her acts of terror. He set the mug down on the bar, and turned to look at her. "So, aren't you the least bit worried that this Ahren might show up, looking for a fight?"

"If he truly wants to kill me then he will come. If he comes, I will fight. WHat should I do instead? It seems pointless to worry." She took another long swig of her mug, not the least bit drunk. "What would you do if it was you he was after? Run? It's much more likly that he'll find me if I stay in Kellen." She smiled a little then turned to face the window on the wall behing her, elbows resting on the bar. "I do very horrible things to people. He has every right to want me dead."

Demus strolled inot his bar, he thought of it as his, because he knew he could destroy it and all its contents at any given time if he needed to...he had done so numerous times before...as he did so...he noticed his old comrade..Adsero, with a new face he had not yet seen."Ahhh how long has it been my good freind Adsero? Are you back in town to burn it again? Or just to visit?" Demus took a seat from next to the odd man sitting next to Adsero, sat it near him, then slid the stool the man was on, man and all, about two feet o the side, placed his own stool in the open spot and sat.

Adsero smiled widley at Demus, happy to see him again. "Just visiting. Apparently and elf seeks my death so I'm..uh.." She looked down at her ale. "preparing for battle. How about you? Come to burn the town in my stead?" She suddenly remembered Skorne being there and spoke before Demus could answer. "Sorry, this man is Skorne. He told me of the elf. Ahren or something like that." She took another long swig of her ale, finishing it off, and then got another from the bartender. He seemed at least a little releaved to hear that Adsero would not be burning the bar upon her departure.
