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.

Arthur walked towards his favorite tavern The Green Gryphon for a mutch needed drink and sleep. He had been out on the roads for days as dust covered his clothes and his feet were terribly sore. He shook himself off before enterign the tavern and the most of the dust came off. He walked in the happy little place listenign to the music as well as the singing of many of the people in the tavern. A few drunks were singing some of their favorite songs and others were jsut dancing on the tavern floor to the girl singing at the front. He walked up to the bartened and said," Ale barkeep and make it long and strong". The bartender smiled and wnet to get Arthur his drink. Arthur then went to sit in a corner by himself to wait and tapped his feet with the music. Soon his drink came and Arthur took a long sip nearly drainbing the cup. He then asked for another one. Then a new singer came up a man and he sang a song that most of the people knew and when Arthur got his drink he joined in as well singing,"

You can search far and wide, you can drink the whole town dry
But you'll never find a beer so brown as the one we drink in our hometown!
You can drink your fancy ales, you can drink 'em by the pyphon
But the only brew for the brave and true...
...comes from the Green Gryphon." Arthur took another long sip after the song finished and continued to hum while listneing to the music lettign it sweep him away.

Nyla couldn't help but investigate all the noises, her ears twitched at the songs, and her nose was overwhelmed with the scents of the tavern. She didn't know the song that they were singing but it did have a catchy rythm. Finding a seat she hummed along and tapped her foot, she decided against alcahol, as the last time she did it ended with a burnt down tavern, and a meeting with a most pequilar person.

Looking around curiously she felt a hand grab her own, a drunk man had dragged her up to dance, trying to pull away the man didn't get her hint. The man's persistance left her with no other choice but to use a little more force, shoving her elbow into his stomach he doubled over and collapsed. Blaming his fall on his drunken state she left to sit somewhere she deemed safer, another man who had been singing was sitting there.

"Good evening sir, how are you tonight?" She asked leaning on the table and looking around quite nervously.

((OOC: sorry for the delay....have to work 7 days in a row this week, and my dad moved out so...been a little busy but i got here! ^_^ ))

(Its alright)


Arthur smiled at the girl how had just come to join him and said," Better now that I have had a few shots, traveling for awhile can get your spirits down but a couple a juggs of ale can wash away any troubels". He laughed a little and drained his cup and put down the bottle the waitress seeing it came over and filled hsi glass without Arthur having to order. He smield at the waitress and she smiled back and went away. He said," Got love their service but then again I did manage to save this place once from some drunken goblins". He chuckled at himself and took a long drink and said to the girl who was lookjing around nervouly and said," Don't look so nervous these guys are harmless, I know I have dea;t with em a few times myself" He laughed and took another long drink. He then said," I am Arthur by the way Arthur Pendragon".

Nyla smiled and laughed a little. "Its not them I'm really too worried about acctually, I'm worried about how much trouble it would be if I accedentally killed one of them." She said still smiling through the humid air of the tavern. Great, he's drunk too.... She thought to herself and heard his introduction, and decided that if he was willing to give his name she might as well return the curtosey. "Nyla, Nyla Minori it's a pleasure to meet you." She said as she took another quick glance, as another waitress came by she ordered a glass of fruit juice and half a shot of vodka, trusting herself with the little bit of alcahol mixed with juice. Sighing she thought about his words. "Goblins? Are they big?" She asked never really hearing anything about the creatures, genuine curiousity riddled through her voice as she asked about them.

Arthur smiled at the girl she no doubt thought he was drunk but the thing was Arthur could drink two barrels of Ale and not be drunk his being dragon had something to do with that. He thought a minute to himself recollecting the encounter with the goblins. He then said," Pretty big in size not to tall the tallest are around 5ft but they can weigh over 500. There pretty strong but nothing I couldn't handle." He smiled and took another drink draining it once more and laid it backdown and said," As for if you accidently killed them its possible there would be a little trouble but there is no honor in fighting drunks none at all.. I would know my life is for fighting. One who is sworn to the blade must seek honor as well as mastery".

The waitress poured him another drink whic hArthur took gratefully and then he said," Of course after awhile you get tired of venturing and you have to rest your travelworn self, and being a loner well lets just say I don't get mutch company of course most of my kind are like that we don't like others that well were solitary so you could say I am the strabge one of my kind". He chuckled a bit and took a long drink.

Nyla laughed. "5 feet, that's almost as tall as I am!" She said impressed by the weight more than anything else. Giggling at his comment about honor she thought he sounded like an old man. "I do not seek honor, and I do not seek battle, it seeks me, I just like to be alert and prepared." She said shortly and simply, when her drink arrived she mixed it and took a sip, letting it run soothingly down her throat.

”Your own kind?” She said curiously, knowing now that there were so many more types of people then demons, she had already met a vampire, and her ignorance had caught up with her then, and again it was popping up here in the tavern. There’s so much to learn…. She thought as she sighed internally, her purple gaze unwavering from Arthur.

Arthur smiled at her and thought for a moment and said," YEs one must always be cautious, even I do not seek to fight all the tiem yet fighting is attartced to me, I guess thats why the Alefinn called me The Son of Battles". He chuckled slightly and toook a long drink. He hadl et somethign slip though he said his own kind he wondered hwt she would do if he told her he was a half-dragon some people did not accept half-dsragons in society thats why most were loners.

He said," Well as you can probably tell I am not purely human, my mother was an elf, and my father well he is a diffrent thign all together". He whisper low and said," My father is a dragon, I am a half-dragon thats what I emant by my kind we are usually shunned by society and most of us are loners but I am a strange one I am accepted and not that solitary". He hoped she would not get up and wlak away in disgust as some did when he told them what he was he could not help it if he was a half-dragon heck he loved being a ha;f-dragon the exhilaration the power was amazing.

He liked this girl though and hoped she would not leave and he said," But still I am quite content with my lot in life I guess, I mean going on adventures doign quests increasing my skills". He took a drink again draining it and order another one.

Nyla listened, and nodded. "Seems as though you are in a similar situation to myself. Half demon's aren't treated very well either, though it would be much more interesting to have a dragon for a parent...are they as frightening as people say, or do dragon's have a soft spot for their children?" She asked leaning on to the table and sipping at her drink. Though this wasn't all for her curiousity's sake, it was also a chance to lock a new smell into her memory. Also being commited to memory was what he had said about being content, was she content with the lot she had? Deciding to concentrate on the conversation at hand she dismissed the self intorogation, and crossed her arms on the table. Sighing she felt restless in the busy spot, and the lights were slightly bothersome, what was this fasination with fire every one had?

"What other creatures have you fought?" She asked looking for creatures she hadn't heard of, living in a room really did limit your knowlage of the world and its inhabitants. Nyla was also looking for more conversation to take her mind off of the growing noise, the cheers and the laughter from the drunk people who were all speaking jibberish. Her ears were twitching and moving at all the noise and let her eyes drift here and there now and then.
