I just love the amount of detail you put into your rooms. The bed sounds interesting, and I bet you need the fire- stone walls and being surrounded by ironwork tends to chill the air. =)

Falcon2001 Page Posts: 72 (10/22/01 9:42:14 am) Reply Re: Many Rooms of The Mighty Pen Keep Thread. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actually, Individual people are supposed to describe their own rooms... as I don't know what goes on, or your interests... Yes, the keep is flexible, but I'd like alittle bit of a base.

  5. Ozymandias the Elder The Founder Posts: 70 (10/21/01 3:39:47 pm) Reply Re: Many Rooms of The Mighty Pen Keep Thread. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interesting idea, but I think others may not like having the entire keep set in stone (pun intended). Personally, I think it's great fun and am absolutely torn between offering my own description of Ozymandias' room and leaving it you. Keep it up!
  6. Falcon2001 Page Posts: 64 (10/19/01 2:55:21 pm) Reply Re: Many Rooms of The Mighty Pen Keep Thread. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well...it is a role playing thread...but I'd also like to have an image in my mind so that I can set stories here. That way, if you don't know how a room I walk into is set up, you can go check the thread. CiodenDarkeye Page of The Mighty Pen
  7. peredhil31 Elder of Lists and Manners Posts: 263 (10/19/01 5:59:22 am) Reply Many Rooms of The Mighty Pen Keep Thread. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was pretty much treating this as a Role Playing thread. It's fun, but not locked in Stone (if you'll pardon the pun). The Pen's Keep should be mutable enough that it can fit any setting or situation the Role Play requires. Kinda like a Magical Univeral Studio or Disney World - very adaptable and changeable. It allows the Freedom to pursue the Muse without having to worry about breaking the 'Rules'. Just a thought...

I will give some simple advice... I would be careful what you do... due to the fact we will need the rooms cleaned! Edited by: Jechum at: 10/21/01 11:03:39 pm

Falcon2001 Initiate Posts: 60 (10/18/01 9:14:58 pm) Reply Oops...another Many Rooms of The Mighty Pen Keep Thread... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Does anyone disagree with how I set up the main rooms (Library, Garden)?

  11. Gyrfalcon25 Bard Posts: 128 (12/14/01 10:59:59 pm) Reply Re: I and all the things that shaped me (commentary) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hmm... not much to say as profound as Peredhil and Wyvern... I love your use of images, such as how pain hardened your heart (which is basically how it feels. =\) *Gyr applauds wildly* Keep going! Encore!

Golden opening, descent into a valley of gloom, but the has the feel of a triumphant ending. Like watching a really good movie! Must be good - you sucked a response out of me when I have no time! -P
  13. Wyvern00 Elder of Initiates Posts: 286 (12/14/01 9:21:28 pm) Reply I and all the things that shaped me (commentary) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I realize the poem's not quite finished yet, Falcon, but never the less, a few comments right from the get go: I must say that it's excellent thus far. A possible rival to 'Happy Birthday... for my greatest enemy', depending on how ambitious you are to tell your entire life story through the poem (Wyvern liked 'Happy Birthday' a LOT...). Once again, a great beginning. Two things that I particularly like thus far are the abstract opening with the use of celestial imagery and your depictions of several depressing yet sincere themes. Keep up the good work. I look forward to reading the rest of it. [image]http://www.legion-whiterose.com/signatures/aoa/wyv.gif[/image] ------------------------------ Almost a Dragon...

  16. Minta Rose Bard Posts: 48 (12/13/01 2:50:41 am) Reply A Thrust into the Unknown -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (by Chris Stephens, Assembly Room) Science fiction, a welcome addition. This reads easily and well, and is building to a long and grand plot. Characterization was swift and complete. Nothing constructive to add, as there's nothing which needs fixing.
  17. Minta Rose Bard Posts: 47 (12/13/01 2:33:56 am) Reply Reformed, Part I -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (by Gwaihir, Assembly Room) Tumbling tripping words, like a diary hastily written--like a person with more important manners occupying his mind--the sentence fragments and extremely short paragraphs make this effect. There is a shift of tense between the parts; the first is a flashback, the second a diary of constant snippets of the present. Each piece flows cohesively, and stands alone as well as tying to a greater arc. It could end at either part and not leave the reader unsatisfied.

Gyrfalcon25 Bard Posts: 124 (12/12/01 5:10:27 pm) Reply Re: Sick -Your opinions please! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Gyr laughs softly* Aye, I agree on the druggies and preps. Hmm... I think its pretty good, myself. Is it meant to be hard rock, pop, rap, heavy metal...?
  19. Falcon2001 Page Posts: 140 (12/12/01 4:35:34 pm) Reply Sick -Your opinions please! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This isn't one of my better ones, but it is a SONG, not a poem. That's key to the entire song...to those who are not familiar with my work, this is NOT typical of my stuff. I had the chorus (I'm SICK) running through my head for days now...it came as I walk through the school during lunch, passing all the cliques in their little alcoves and territories. It just makes me sick, how the entire school has broken themselves into nice seperate little fragments, all bent on the destruction of the others...well, all except I guess the stoners and preps, they don't have the brain cells neccessary...THERE, EVEN I'M DOING IT!

I hope Monsieur Arlequin wouldn't mind help in teaching me.

Yep, that's a cutoff. Congratulations, Falcon! Longest post in the Pen!!! Seriously, try posting the next bit in a new topic thread. It should work. I haven't read very far, but so far, I like what I see. I too, reaaaaaalllllllllllllllllllllllyyyyy empathize with the name problem. Oy!
