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.

Quick Intro
Sekuda as been through rough times in his life. From birth he had no way of communicating with others, besides touch. His de birth affect was too great an enemy to him. He could not deal with being an outsider to the other children of his forest village. As he grew older becoming more of age he started to embrace the fact he was a mute. It was what made him different, but that did not make him ignore the chance to get it healed.

During one of his travels the elven healer known at Teathris came to his village. It was there Sekuda's life turned for the worst. Teathris promised that his magic would be able to heal Sekuda's 'Illness' and being an outsider Sekuda could not refuse to be one with his brethren. Teathris attempted to heal Sekuda. Though his magical might was not great enough, and instead of healing Sekuda, he almost killed him.

It was a few months later that Sekuda awoke from his deep slumber, unfamiliar faces surrounded him. He was filled with fear and tried to flee, but they kept him still. They tried to tell him things he just could not believe. They were his family. Sekuda had lost all traces of his memory. He could not remember his name, or his family. Where he lives no longer concerned him.

Sekuda fled the village that was supposedly his own into the surrounding forest. Here he felt safe and secure. This was his true home now, away from the 'lies' the villagers told him. From that day forth he stayed there, lurking in the shadows of the forest away from civilization. The only voice he heard was of the wind and trees. His only family were the leaves that surrounded him as lay asleep in the trees.

It was only months later while he adapted to his forest surroundings that Sekuda saw other humanoids come into his new forest home. They brought sharp edged weapons with them. Sounds of cracks and snaps could be heard through his new home as the men chopped down his family. Sekuda was furious with rage. He knew that these men must leave, for they were doing wrong. Sekuda watched them day after day, waiting and watching. Learning from them so that he could soon kill them, and stop the evil.

Not long after did the wood elf take action. He took a fallen branch from an oak tree and grass to make string. He created a small short bow from the forest, and he knew they would understand. For this was a small sacrifice to kill this murderers of the forest. From the earth he gathered stones, and from the low branches he took long straight sticks. From these he made arrows, using the grass of the fields to attach them.

After the creation of his weapons Sekuda set forth, towards his enemies, staying secluded from the men below. If only he had acted quicker he would have been able to save the hundreds of trees already cut down. He took a moment to weep for them before he attacked. With straight aim Sekuda took down his foes, hearing their short yells and screams as rock and wood plunged into their hearts. The forest was silent, only the thuds of bodies falling onto the ground. Unfortunately one man managed to escape, eluding Sekuda's gaze. Word went out that the forest was haunted by some being with greeted strength and fury.

Sekuda showed no pity for the creatures he killed, they deserved their death. It was cold blood that now ran in his veins, and he liked it. It gave him power, strength that he never believed he had before. It felt comforting to him, and he embraced it.

More people came to the forest during the next years, small groups or even loners. They all were scared out of the area, the only memory being of arrows whistling around them. The people of nearby villages called him the Watcher of the Woods, for they could never enter without being seen.
