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.

Major updates in the works...

Like the title says, there are some major changes coming to Imythess. Most are still a ways from completion, and shall be added as they are finished, but I thought I would give everyone an update just to let you guys know that I'm keeping busy with some new ideas for Imythess.

Just today, I spent the better part of the morning brainstorming and writing, all for these new features and hit a boom of new ideas, which make me really excited. Here are just a few of the coming features and updates:

  • Major Skills rewrite. The skills haven't been updated in... well since they were introduced to Imythess a couple of years ago, and I think it's high time that they've been given an update. This won't only be simple rewrite, but an elaboration as well. I plan on adding Skill Levels, from Novice to Master. It only makes sense to be able to get better at skills, the more you use them. More on these levels and how they work will be presented when they are finished.

  • Major Feats rewrite. The feats have also been rather neglected. I plan on rewriting them for clarification on those that need it, but besides that little will change in the mechanics of feats. Flaws most likely will not be changed, considering they are relatively new in comparison to the feats and skills.

  • Monthly Events. There have been mentions of this pretty frequently lately and they have a lot of potential. The actual activities have yet to be decided, but thus far the list of possibilities that I have come up with has included item giveaways, posting contests, and in-character events anywhere from parties to battles. These monthly events are going to be included as frequently as possible with another upcoming feature, the site-wide storyline.

  • Imythess Storyline. This is something that has been in the back of my head for quite a while. I have the basic plot lined up, but it still needs a lot of revisions.

  • Factions. These are going to be NPC run guilds that members can join. These guilds are going to offer a lot of advantages for people who decide to join the factions, such as exclusive shops, prestige classes, and advancements.

Well, I hope that this has helped inform you guys of whats in the works. I'm up for taking questions, but some of them might have to wait for the actual updates to be released. :D
