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.

Valk was in the Spiderhaunt Woods at night, it was really dark out you could not even see Valk in his black Dragon form. He snarled at every spider that came at him, slashed at the webs, and the spiders got mad because of it, one large spider attacked him, it jumped on his back while the Dragon turned his head and bit the head off the spider, the spider fell off the Dragon's back as the he spit the spider head out.

He looked around and a Dragon smile played across, you wouldn't know what he finded so amusing he just smiled for no resin at all. He walked were it was darker then night its self. When he was where he wanted to, you can't see his eyes since they were black as night its self. He looked like he was tired which he was, but, if there was danger he would kill what ever annoyed him.

He layed down and swinged his tail at the spiders that annoyed him so he kept swinging his tail, after awhile the spider's got smart and stoped annoying Valk, so he stoped swinging his and waited for something to happen.

-*Once more, Gregori had caught the scent of a vile, putrid beast whilst travelling through Norwood Forest. More specifically, that of a dragon. The stench had been strong enough even, to wake him from his slumber as he rested against the trunk of a fairly large tree. Instantly in a sour mood, he began his hunt, grabbing his sword and pulling his black cloak around him to further shadow his features.

His eyes would close as he took in a deep breath, searching for the direction of the odor that plagued him so. Finding it, he took off, or to be more specific, began walking towards it.

The ground began to give way slowly at first, then began to get deeper and deeper into a swampy marsh. Gregori took no extra interest at his surroundings save for what he may need to know should he come into a fight.

The spiderwebs were easily dispatched with his clawed hands, though they did make him wonder just what created them.

Suprisingly, he met very few spiders that weren't already dead, or fleeing in terror. Those that weren't, were dispatched with hastily. By the time Gregori was on the dragon's path, he had a couple minor scrapes and cuts. His nearly-scaled skin tough enough to resist most of the damage.

Without warning, Gregori stopped, and his hand snaked its way into his cloak to his waist to grab the hilt of his sword. He stood there and waited, knowing that the foul beast must have smelled, or sensed him by now. He was a mere thirty feet from Valk's position, though Gregori did not know this. He merely knew that the smell was so potent that his prey could not be far now...

And so he waited, trying to judge if he could hear or sense anything in the darkness.*-

Valk smelled something and remembered it. He stayed where he was hoping the person didn't see him, if he can stay here and not move he could blend in with the darkness around him, so he stayed where he was.

His black nothingless eyes looked around hoping to find the Dragonslayer that he had smelled before, then his thoughts wandered awhile thinking how many Dragon's this dragonslayer had killed and why was he. After awhile he started looking for the person and saw a glimpsed the person but it was hard since it was dark but he saw the dragonslayer.

"I sould kill him." Valk wispiered to his self staring at the person with a look of murder on his Dragon face. Better fight then just lay here like nothings wroung, he thought.

And with that he moved to stand up and so he could fight easily, his tail whiped through the air, his eyes stared at the Dragonslayer, his mouth opened like he wanted to rip the Dragonslayer apart.

A Dragon smile played across his face as he said "Well, what do we have here a Dragonslayer." He started to laugh. "What are you going to do, kill me then, with a sword, I'll tell you those scales are hard." He still laughed.

Come on Dragonslayer strake me down, meet my jaws of hunger, he said in his mind.

-*A dark grin would form upon the deeply shadowed features of his face as he heard the crashing noise of the dragon's actions. He threw back the hood of his cloak with his left hand as he drew the two-handed sword with his right. Due to his immense size and strength, he wielded it as a normal longsword. His grin only widened as his eyes finally adjusted to the darkness, and he realized that the trees overhead and all around would make it more difficult for such a large creature to maneuver. A brow would raise though, as the dragon spoke of his sword before he even brought the handle into view from behind his cloak. Taking it as a lucky guess, he would slowly begin to stride towards his prey.

His voice would ring out in a loud, deep tone.*-

"Actually, yes...I do believe I shall. I have slain far larger and mightier of your kin than you upon this blade...It will work just fine for what I have in mind."

-*He was of course bluffing, but his expression and voice never wavered. If one didn't know better, they might actually believe him.*-

Valk laughed, it was loud and the trees shaked, his wings come out and he started to fly, his claws griped a branch andthen all his claws was on the branch then he started to change into his humen form and when he was he jumped down to the ground since he wasn't high, he pulled out his two handed sword and there was still blood stained on it, he was looking at the man with eyes that have the look of murder on his face.

"And you want me to believe that, you must take me as a fool." He laughed. "And what do you have in mind then." He still laughed.

He brought up his sword the old blood was dark red, and Valk smiled looking at the man with eyes that where blacker then night, he was watching the mans evey move ad kept smiling and waiting for the dragon slayer to attack.

-*Gregori tensed as the dragon took flight, preparing to charge into the fray, or possibley leap from the path of a breath weapon. As the dragon flew nearer he began to run towards it. Being the size he was, he could not run as fast as many of those smaller than him could, so he still wasn't within reach of the dragon as it landed. As he saw the dragon change shape into his human form it was all he could do to keep from laughing with joy. The blood-lust was almost overtaking him completely by this point.

By now he was only ten feet from his prey, a distance he could cross half of with just a swipe of his blade. Taking note of his prey's size, and the size of the weapon he wielded he figured that there was no way his opponent could effectively wield it with one hand. From Valk's size as well Gregori assumed that Valk would have trouble maneuvering the large blade as well Though there were some dragons who's magics could follow into their human forms, it was usually the adults, and the mature dragons that could do so effectively.

He did not want to take any chances though, so before his opponent could make another action after he had raised his blade, Gregori charged. His sword, in his Right hand, was brought up and to the left in a diagonal angle. After taking but only two steps he would have traveled a good six feet, on his third he would bring his sword down and to the right diagonally with tremendous force, hoping to cleave his opponent in half. Unless Valk moved, the blade would strike him in the Right upper arm, and quite possibley cleave him in two.*-

Valk just smiled as the man charged at him then he started to laugh for no reason at all,
he just standed there waiting for the attack, and after awhile it came. Valk brought his sword up and blocked the swing that was coming from the left and then brought his sword to the right and was about to block he got clip on the shoulder, and he screamed in rage, and he steped back angry at this dragon slayer. He glared at Gregori and waited for the next attacks.

"You will die dragon slayer." He shouted in rage. He didn't care about the wound he cared about that the dragon slayer cliped him on the shoulder. He was thinking of the best way to kill this man and couldn't think since all this anger clouded his mind but that will not stop him from attacking this foolish man. Valk was watching the dragon slayer's every move.

I sould change, but then there will not be much room, he thought in his mind. He looked around and saw that there will be room since he is a small dragon, but he will need a place to change so when he does change he will not be attacked. He looked up and saw that he could climb up a little bit and change and it should be fine, so he seathed his sword nice and fast and started to climb the tree and when he got to a branch that would not fall when a dragon goes on it.

He started to change and when he was done he jumped down and with a loud thud the black dragon was on the ground smiling at the dragon slayer and waiting for somthing to happen.

-*Gregori was amazed at the strength his opponent displayed, though in such a small form. 'How does he wield such heavy a blade, and block my attacks with such ease? My strength should greatly out-match his in human form...' He thought to himself. Prepared to strike again, Gregori moved to attempt to finish this quickly, when suddenly Valk leaped into the trees.

Cursing under his breat, he would look up towards where his opponent had jumped, only to see the foul creature change into its true form. As he saw the dragon leap to the ground, Gregori charged. With a snarl of rage, he brought the sword up to his Right, at shoulder level perfectly flat horozontally. The tip of the blade was aimed to strike at the dragon's heart, or neck if it got in his way.

His attempt was to catch Valk off gaurd, rushing at him the moment he began to touch the ground. If his blow were to land, or strike anything that was used to block, he would drive forward with great force, his Feat of Cleave adding power behind the blow.*-

Valk looked down at the dragon slayer and saw that he was about to hit him with a powerfull attack. Valk snarled in anger as the sword cut into his scales, he rowred in anger and sort of lost his balance and stumbled and then tryed to stand up and could not but he decided to stay on the ground and use his tail and breath weapon.

He taked in a deep breath and blowed out a form of gas that when you breath it in then you would at least fall unconscientious and will not wake up for awhile. Then when he was done with that he brought up his tail and then swinged it at Gregori and again and again, then he stoped and waited to see if the dragon slayer was done with or did the dragon slayer live.

-*Elation pumped through his blood as his sword drove into the dragon's chest. Unfortunately, or fotunately, the strike just missed the heart. With a grunt Gregori would drive forward with all his strength, trying to embed his two-handed sword to the hilt in his opponent's body. This would be aided by the dragon falling, Gregori able to lean down upon his blade to plunge it further. Once the sword was as deep as it would go, the dragon had let loose its breath weapon.

Almost in a hurried panic Gregori would yank at his sword, it embedded too deep to removed quickly enough. He would release the hilt, and in a move of pure survival instinct leaped upwards. Of course being his size, it was not much of a leap, but his foot was able to catch the handle of the sword, using it as a footstool, at the same time as adding his tremendous weight to it. The blade would most likely slice upwards within the dragon's body, unless it was buried so deep that it was instead pushed downwards.

Using his Right foot as leverage, as that is the foot that landed upon the sword, he would push up, attempting to jump onto the dragon's back. If successfull, he would let himself fall along the spine until he reached the wings, where he would grab onto the joints where the wings connect with the back, his belly to the dragon. His dragonic blood protected him somewhat from the breath weapon, but even from outside of the blast, he was still getting a little drowsy.*-
