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.

The day was dawning, and this meant that he was trapped. Trapped in this building full of books. He didn't mind though, he had always loved books. Even before he was bitten.....He made extra care to avoid the windows, keeping to the shadows and the tables mostly. He had already accumulated a large pile of books at the table he had chosen. The books varied in size and subject, from history to battle to civics. Currently though he was wandering the aisles, looking for a specific book that he had read a reference to.

He wondered about this place. Who, in this land filled with turmoil and without any proper form of government, could have built such a large library? From waht he had seen, the towns and cities were filled with incompetent guards who could barely uphold the law, and the adventurers, who roamed the land looking for loot. But alas, he could not. He was trapped to the nights, forced to find shelter during the day. He had more than once had attempts made on his life when he was discovered, but each time he killed them easily. Incompetent hunters....

Llorar strolled the sections, looking from book to book. She was hunting for a particular subject, one on vampires. The subject had both interested her and haunted her since the day her brother had been bitten. Since that day, she had seen him very little since. She saddened at the thought. 'he had always liked books.' she thought to herself.

She scanned the books at eye level when a dark form caught her eye. glancing up, she watched the figure draw closer. There were barely any people in the library today, as everyone was enjoying the beautiful day outside. Curious, she walked to the end of the shelf and looked around the corner. It took several secods for her to recognise the elf, but when she did, a huge smile crossed her face.

"Durion! how are you?" she asked in a joyous tone, walking over to him eagerly.

He quickly turned at the sound of a voice, calling his name. He did not recognize the person in front of him at first, but as he looked at her for a moment, he recognized his sister. His eyes widened in surprise, and he took a step back. He remembered how she had been afraid the last time they had seen each other. He remembered the taste of theblood of their uncle, who had tried to 'put him out of his misery.' How she had walked in on him feeding, and how he had fled.

He smiled at his sister though. He had always liked her, she had been nice to him, as he remembered it at least. "Good evening to you dear sister. After all, it is now the time for my kind to sleep, while you and yours walk the world outside. And I am trapped here. But I digress. How have you been. How long has it been since we last met? I cannot seem to remember." He looked her up and down. She looked about how he remembered her, except for the clothes.

She gave a friendly smile. " I only know it has been much too long, dear brother." Llorar approached him more eagerly. Since their last meeting, she had gotten over what her brother had become, and was now very interested in vampirism. It was slightly awkward standing here, conversing with a vampire in the day.

She dismissed the thought immediately. He was family, after all. The subject would be avoided, if possible. "So what have you been up to, lately? besides...you know." she said awkwardly.

He smiled slightly as she came closer. He had missed her, if not the rest of his family, and was glad to finally see her again, and out of their home as well. "Well, my life is pretty much avoiding hunters of my kind, and avoiding some of our family members who seem inclined to.....dispose of me. But let us not speak of such matters. What have you been up to these past years? And are you looking for any specific books? I am sure I could help you, I have been in here since last night."

Llorar's heart warmed as they drifted from the subject of vampirism to more friendly subjects. As the offe to help her find a specific book arose, she shuffled her feet. "Actually, i was looking for a particular subject. I bet you could help me with this one. I was looking for books on vampirism. Can't seem to find them here. i've looked over and over, but i probably keep missing a spot. I can't accept help from the librarian, though. she seems a bit stuck-up." Llorar looked to the side for a second, hoping her request wasn't too odd.

"I have been looking around for the last few years, trying to find some way to help you. You honestly cannot like this type of life. Being chased about, confined to the night to travel, and with me now as one of few people to converse freely with? I wouldn't be able to stand it." She said sternly. She missed the brother she used to have, as he was in their childhood.

He smiled as she spoke of looking for a book on vampirism. "Follow me." He led her to the table he had his books at, and sure enough, in a stack were five books on vampirism. "These are all the books in the library on vampirism. I haven't had the chance to read them yet, but go ahead." He offered her a chair, as he sat down himself. He started organizing all the other books into piles based on subject, as he had been tossing the around.

He laughed when she said she wanted to help him. "Well, I doubt you will be able to find a cure for vampirism. It is not a subject many seem to have an interest in, they prefer to kill us......True, being chased about is no fun, especially by my own family, my kin, my blood. But night is not so bad, we are moon elves after all......And I have grown used to solitude. I prefer it to the company of idiots and those who think themselves better than others....."
