lol, no, was just a nod to an irish drinking song, not the actual professor's thirst for fisticuffs. More "he would appreciate if OTHER people fought at his funeral, just for the fun and irony of it"

Also, I think your summation on events is about right ^.^ We can include tons in our RP and edit it to be more concise for the stuff we submit to GR too, so I would encourage everyone to just sink into character and go with whatever ;)

Ach! Shame on me fer not recognizin the sounds of me ancestors. Sure an begorrah, twill be a beautiful wake! (OOSTC: Do you know him as Old Doc, or was that a song reference too? XD ... In case you wondered OOSTC means out of silly temporary character)

I figured the funural would be how we all got together with the bios coming after that to properlily intro the characters. or will the wake be the whole thing?

the lineart of everyone is finally done :D

I hate you.... your character took twice as long as everyone else but omg was she fun to make :D

yeah that line about you being a mage confused me... but I decided to make you sing anyway XD yours was a fun one to make actually

will colour them in a few hours, shouldn't take long with flat colours ^_^

It looks SOOOOO good! I think my fav is Kaiidth's lol or mebbe ires XD I like them all, k Also wic, is it gonna stay that size cause it would be a pretty epic siggy heh

More a nod to my old collage days- and probably everyone's. There was ALWAYS a Doc. coulda been anyone who had such a degree in whatever field but every discipline has one XD Don't need to keep referring to him that way or nothin, just givin an IC pet name to a dead NPC. Also wic, There's lots of fun at Finnegan's wake, or so Clancy told me ;)

Thanks for the update! I posted :)

Guh, they all look amazing! Heck, you're amazing. Dx

Edit: And surely enough, I forgot to include Burnsley. I'm such a good owner ahah /goes to edit the post

omg I love it. I'm so sorry!!!! When it's done can I have a copy of my character!!!????♡♡♡♡

ok, took longer then I thought but I tend to net pick ^^;

tada!!!! group pic!!! will edit it to individuals over the weekend :D

drag to a separate tab to see it properly

I love it. And I'm sorry :x

yours was interesting :o

very unusual!!!! I hope you like it ^^

I do thank you ^^

These are wonderful drawings, you're very talented, do you use a digital program? or drawing and scanning? Im catching up with the posts, and trying to understand it all.

I use SAI, a digital drawing program. still a beginner thought XD

I hope you like yours!

I'm sorry I didnt answer you, yes I love it! your very talented, they're all so cute.

Ok, Im going to be a pain, Im struggling a bit here, although Im not actually doing anything lol,Im trying to keep up with all the threads but I dont have a clue what Im supposed to be doing? I've rambled a message to Jess the poor love, and Im sorry for troubling her. Editing again, I think Im having a bit of a brain fart, I read the first entries for chapter 1,one of them is like a book! But I feel a bit better now. sorry! its the old nerves I guess. I've been over to SL and added my bit to the RP intro, I hope its adequate, please let me know if it needs improving. I've altered my bio too on page 9, I had put that I went to Oxford, I've taken it out,to fit with the RP Intro, I hope thats ok?

sorry for my absence today, I was not able to get online like I'd planned to. We have tonight and tomorrow to get this finished. Thanks to everyone for your efforts thus far!

I'll reply more fully and check the SL forum in a bit. Almost time for supper.

Before I go, though... is speechless and overjoyed with the group image

EDIT (8:30pm)- Okay I'm back and have read the SL forum and the WS thread. Have any of you read the first three teams' entries? The Bohemian Travelers (posted by Straywillow) is closest to what I had envisioned...each of us giving some background info while explaining why we're at the funeral. Then we go to the pub, the messenger arrives, and we proceed to the crossroads.

Agree/disagree? Do we have time to discuss this anymore or should I just write it up? LOL

EDIT2 (10:30pm) - Well, I've spent the past 90 mins gathering and consolidating and typing things up in a document that I can then paste into our post. I'll revisit it tomorrow morning. May be going into town again, not sure at this point.

Thank you! yours turned out super cute!!!! that's why I like simple designs ❤

here is the final version of mine

He was a failure. Thought Nightshade while looking at the other students attending the wake warily. Instead of picking up a sword he decided to pick up a pen and spout nonsense about poetry and feelings. Dark Elves are warriors, not poets. They don't live long enough for the grey to set in their hair. He's thoughts flashed back to the very beginning, to the days when he was first branded a murder by the court, his own family disowned him and no Elf or inn would allow him in. Only the professor, the outcast of the dark elves opened his doors to him. The professor, tired... oh he really tried to get him into literature and books, talked his ears off about second chances. All the words and good intentions in the world however could not change the brand on his face. Nightshade the murderer, that was what he would be till the end of his days.

Phineas the Bard approached him and asked if he was part of the professor's clan. Nightshade "He was an outcast of his clan, a Foolish man...but a foolish Elf is still an Elf and he will receive an honorable burial.”

Gods, they look even better in color :') I love mine to bits ahah, but in general they turned out wonderfully!

Ohh, shoot. I'll be around tomorrow at 6pm Subeta time, if that's not too late (assuming we have until midnight), and will look at the other teams' entries then.. P.S. Thank you for being a superb leader! You're doing a wonderful job x_x

I am once again going to be away from home until at least 5pm Subeta time. I know this is horrid timing, but my mother needs my company today.

If at all possible, amongst yourselves, please have a RP conversation on SL that entails us arriving at the pub, becoming more familiar with each other, hearing the faerie's message, and deciding to band together and head for the crossroads. I'll add my part in when I get home (as can anyone else if necessary) and get it all formatted.

Final countdown!

Just had a thought. I'll put what I have so far in a code box on SL so you can all see what I have done so far.

EDIT 7pm - I'm home, helping with supper prep. If anyone is online and can help, I'd appreciate it. Five hours to go.

, Im liking the last part you added, made me think of John lee Hooker. I think you've done a great job of our rp intro, did you do all the coding? Im hopeless at that! Yes I read the first 3 entrants on the chapter 1 thread, there are more now.So much reading! Thanks for the sticker.

No problem at all - rather, thank you for the sticker :)

A bit late, but I am here and should remain here until the end. >.< I know we're missing some members for the RP, but is there anything I could help out with - maybe formatting the group post or continuing the intro RP we had going?

Er, if it's the latter, where should I continue on from? Also, if we're anticipating a few more posts before midnight, at what point should I stop at (ex. halfway through the bar scene/before we leave the bar for the crossroads/etc)?

I've nearly got everyone to the inn, so if you could take over at that point I'll start with when the messenger arrives and hopefully get to the end in time. If you can format and post in code as I did, that would be EXTREMELY helpful!

thanks for your support and ideas!
