Lady Celes Crusader

Well, I think it'll be better right after this other one. Katz: No problem. However, if when it'll start will fit better for your schedules, you're always welcome.

Very interesting. Thank you.

If the USA had the politic will to applied its knowledge to actually help defavoriased regions around the world, it would have been a way more efficient way to fight terrorism.

It sounds beautiful in its original tongue. I agree with you that translation is difficult because you want to keep the spirit and the meaning of your poem intact while trying to make it sound logically structured in the other tongue you translated into. Perhaps, you can ask in the Café for someone's help for any translation.

Tanny: You can decide by roleplay with whom you're friend with. But you all know each other since you were part of the Pharoh's entourage. Vahktang: One name please.

Celes had been shocked with all the events. After helping out with Dragonqueen she looks over Marelas. - This is definatly bode nothing good for anyone. I hope he'll get better. I wonder what Vahktang is up too? (OOC: A vote against Vahktang)

The poll question is mainly about those who are interested into playing the Mummy themed games. Synopsis: The players are Mummies of people who were close enough to the Pharoh (but not a relative) to earn the right to be entombed into a funeral maze-like complex. The Mummies meets in a central hall every night and reach their secretly hidden chamber when the sun rises (they suddenly feel tired when the sun is about to raise). However, that peace is disrupted by the presence of egyptologues who recently discovered the funeral complex... Werewolves: These Mummies decided to get everyone else's out so they can profite of all the afterlife riches in a commune ceremonial treasure chamber. They will lead the egyptologues straight over their victim's chamber. The victim's chamber will be emptied and mummy, sarcophagae and personnal possession will be on their way over the British Museum. Baner: The Baner will erase the clues left by the Werewolves. The Seer: The Seer will ask guidance from Osiris who will reveal what he/she needs to know about one Mummy. Night phase: It's voting time. The "winner" will be forced to let the door of his secret chamber opened. They'll end up in the British Museum in the same fashion than the victims. Day Phase: I'll get the PM's from the special roles. Also, NO PM alliances between the villagers, the Baner and the Seer. Players: Vahktang: Moses - Israël Ambassador YanYanGanaffi: Benny Sandpounder - Pharoh's personnal bodyguard Tanuchan: Nehrathi - One of the Queen's maid Cryptomancer: Imhotep - Cleric Ayshela: Napheen, Pharoah's children's nurse Gnarlitch: Pamiu, the Pharoh's older cousin and one of his chief advisors Merelas: Esaneh, the court scribe for the Pharoh Dean the Adequate: Khaires, the wines servent Gryphon: Rahotep, junior officer in the pharoah's army assigned to the palace staff. Knight: Khe, the "new guy" in Rahotep's squad of guards... If you have an hard time finding a proper Egyptian Name, here's one that'll generates some at random: http://www.fantasist.net/namegen.shtml GAME WILL START ON MONDAY NOVEMBER 15. I will accept players until then.

Hi. For now, there's a forum planned for the less known European as well, as for any other languages that don't fit under the "European Classics" one. The reason why it's not there yet is because nobody showed a will or an interest to write in any of the languages you mentionned and that The Pen members expressed a will to keep the number of forums to a minimum. However, if you really want to write poems, stories and the like in your native tongue, I'll be more than happy to request the opening of European Exotics. I never EVER considered one language inferior compared to another. I've heard people speaking Creole and Gaelic and it just opened up my curiosity towards these less known languages. Meanwhile, I invite you to read the Annoucement in the Café to found out everything you need to know about the Manor.

What concerns me the most is the place religion is taking in the political debates. Looking back at my own province's history, I know that they should be mutually exclusive as combining them both often leads to a fanatism that usually have heavy consequences. You cannot shaped a society accoring to one group's faith as I do believe it is a personnal matter. However, you can shaped society based upon ideas proposed by different communities and individuals, trying to find the best solutions for everyone.

*rofl* Well Tanny, it seems that we swtiched roles, even though you were more successful than I. I loved the game and the ending was amazing.

A 50k round-robin? That is absolutly crazy. :woot:

OOC: Sammy "the Gator" Bosselli - YanYanGanaffi

(OOC: I'll make a post describing the action before and after Yan-Yan's post) When Saria arrives, Tai knew exactly how many men she brought with her and especially whom she brought along. The Widow started the conversation. - Good afternoon, Lotus. So, what did you want to talk to me in such an urgently way? - Good afternoon, Widow. It seems that whoever is after our skins, is very persistent in his or hers own method. Poisoning my existence while spicing up yours with explosion. I am aware that I unwillingly supported one who plotted against us all. Is my grand archrival is behind this? I can't really tell. However, the other one seems to favor crude methods. Remember the radioactive poison? Saria sights at the thought of the caricatural poison. - Lotus, whom do you think had done it then? Before Tai answers she get shot at the chest and both hears the obnoxious tape. During the rocus caused by the gas, all bodyguards draggued their respective bosses away. On a roof top, away from the Café, both ladies meet up again with all their men along. One of the Chinese assassins express her worries about Tai's health but the Lotus quickly reassures her. - Hum... The Gator have interesting ways of showing me his distrust. I hope that you didn't planned this along with him because his ways are... crude. So far, you didn't dissapointed me. Tai dusted up herself in her typical dignified way. - Widow, I honestly wonder if this chaos will stop with the other traitor's death because. All this costed us a price that only a mad one could pay. Tai grabs her head. Then throws off her cellphone. - My apologies, but I need to rest. As for communication, my men cannot be rigged. Her assassins bows respectuously to the Widow and leaves with Tai Rong Xiang for a safer place.

Happy Birthday Yan Yan.

Tai Rong Xiang checks over what drugged her recently. Her long time expertise on drugs made her realized that the substance is PCP, of a cheap quality on top of that. However, the headache was too strong and she have an hard time to think clear. She decides to phone the Widow. - Greetings Widow. I apologizes if I do not sound like myself but I need to talk with you at a neutral place. What about this cafe of yours? As soon as possible. I'll wait for you over there but mind you, I wont be alone and I suggest that you shouldn't come alone neither... we cant trust anyone these days. I'll wait for you patiently. The Lotus hangs up the phone and yells some orders at her servants. She heads for the café.

Celes walks in the main room along with Ayshela, Papa Smurf and the two blondes. However, thanks to the general panic, the Necronomicon is now nowhere to been seen, which worries Celes. The phantasm mages walks over Yui, while searching for the dreaded book. - Where the hell is this thing? Yui wonders. - What thing? - The Necronomicon... - Pardon me but these emotions didn't bode you well... - I'm not delirious... I've seen the Necronomicon here in this Library with Vahktang. Yui starts to worry since, as a shadow mistress, she is well aware of the powers this book holds within its pages. - I know it looks like is pulling of a bad live action role-playing game of Call of Chtulu, resumes Celes but this is the thing I saw and I sincerly believe that you should take a look at it. Yui nods while Celes keeps on searching the book.

Celes walks over the book Vahktang discovered and pays close attention to it. - I hope is not a real copy of that dreaded book. The candidate looks at the Frenchie dubiously. - What is that dreaded about this book? - My Nether mages friends told me about it and it contains very powerful magic that is very dangerous to use. Vahktang decides to open the book confidently, but Celes grabs his hand. - Do not touch it! In fact, I doubt that it is wise to open it. - Awww Celes, don't be so overly cautious. It's just a book. He frees his hand from the girl's grab and opens the book (OOC: I'm voting against YanYan)

Tai Rong Wang arrived on the scene late... obviously she did hurried herself as she was in her traditionnal chinese attire (she never wears that in public), with her portable computer on hand. Everyone who is alived look at her and Tai does realizes that she owns explanations. - So... he was planning to overthrow us all. Well, I am embarrassed to have entrusted him and considered him as a valuable ally. I own you an apology X-terminator for mistrusting you. However, I doubt that he acted alone, on his own. It appears that my informants had been clumsy in their searches or way too easily fooled. Then she subtly hinted in cantonese to her servants that she doesn't want to make them all sushi eaters.

Tai Rong Xiang watches carefully the broadcast. X was right about the clumsy methods; they were definatly out of his style. However, when someone is trying to overthrow every other bosses, it's a totally different game of go. It's subterfuge over subterfuge. She understands why X was upset but then is it deception or not. She gets her attention totally focused.

Carbone and Cambronne were still at the bar when their mistress disappeared. Using their sense of smell, hearing and sight, they are trying to locate her but with no success. From what they can smell, it's been a while that Celes was out of the room. However, Celes is not the kind of person to leave her cats behind in an unfamiliar place. Cambronne jumps down and started to meow at the peoples he meets while Carbone stays on her bar seat, thinking that she's safer there.

Edit: Moved over the right thread.

Tai Rong Xiang receives a brief phone call. She reads carefully the reports her loyal men made and nods. She calls in one of her more reliable agent and gives her a mission. [cantonese speech] - Be brief, discreet and courteous. You know what to do. [/cantonese speech] The servant nods and quickly leaves Tai's sight.

TFM did have tons of fun with AOD as we did have fun warring the top guilds and, in the end, turning into one of the said top guilds.

Happy Birthday Jon! Now you get the right to do the aforementionned vice in the US as well. Isn't it that great?

Celes had been digusted by the trick that had been played on Salinye. She then surveys the gathered people around her. - Well, it is obvious that this whole place is filled with nasty surprises in every corners. However, it seems that the pranster or pranksters are closer than I thought. Celes poses her gaze around many poeple, she witnessed the doings of many of them so she excluded them from her suspect list, but there's many of them she's not sure of their doings.
