Bio

Current GM of World of Light. When it comes to writing, there's nothing I love more than imagination, engagement, and commitment. I'm always open to talk, suggestion, criticism, and collaboration. While I try to be as obliging, helpful, and courteous as possible, I have very little sympathy for ghosts, and anyone who'd like to string me along. Straightforwardness is all I ask for.

Looking for more personal details? I'm just some dude from the American south; software development is my job but games, writing, and trying to help others enjoy life are my passions. Been RPing for over a decade, starting waaaay back with humble beginnings on the Spore forum, so I know a thing or two, though I won't pretend to be an expert. If you're down for some fun, let's make something spectacular together.

I'm really enjoying the Frenzy job. It's not every day I get to subject people to a horror atmosphere.
Here are the CS I have done.







What guild are these characters for, out of curiosity?
“A trivial task. It will be done. Once my surveillance is complete, I will move on the dwarven outpost. Demonic suggestion and manipulation is all well and good, but objectives are accomplished with soldiers.” Clotho released an ear-ringing shriek, and the ground nearby began to shift. The terrain rumbled and caved as a pair of Antlions pushed through, leaving a tunnel behind them from which emerged Myrmidons, Lambent, and the most tactical of Clotho's creations, the Macula. These platter-sized, ticklike insects were slow, unintelligent, and useless for combat, but the huge eyes in their abdomens watched their surroundings tirelessly, and relayed the reticular images back to a focusing chamber in Clotho's hive.

The swarm queen communicated her instructions to her minions in their own language, and when she was done the Antlions tore into the ground again, this time in the direction of the outpost. They would carve a network of tunnels beneath the settlement, using their finely-tuned subterranean senses to avoid the tunnels fashioned by dwarfs, and the Macula alone would breach the surface to infest the town, watching everything. If some were killed, it mattered not; Clotho could simply replace them, and the ease in killing them would make the dwarfs more secure.

Clotho gave Twitch a wave. ”It is begun. The ambush will be set as the reconnaissance is performed, and all will be ready when the command is made. If you require my further attention, you can find my in my hive's Chamber of Eyes.” Leaving the demons and the Kobold behind, Clotho dipped back into the dungeon, zipping through tunnels past grunts and other monsters as she returned to her dwelling. Upon entering the Chamber of Eyes, she was for a moment entranced, as always. The inside of the room was analogous to the eye of a dragonfly, much larger of course, but on the inside. Each of what looked like octagonal screens were in fact living organisms, receiving long-distance impulses from the Macula and recoloring their surface pigments at high speed to capture what the bugs were currently looking at. For now, it was all drab, earthen tunnel, but soon Clotho anticipated perusing an entire dwarven settlement, ripe for the picking.

You're the worst kind of person.

I hope you feel good about yourself playing as Maxi.


I did until you said that.
Maxi all the way, baby.
@Lugubrious

Was Nero not around when Jack announced the Dragon Fang participants? XD


No, I'm pretty sure that the announcement was made before he arrived, while he was still with Iron Enigma in fact, I believe. If it had been, then I wouldn't have been thinking all this time about a way for Nero to find out.

Both are interesting and seem to fit Isla.

@LugubriousI don't think Zev is wearing his ridiculously large smiley face head. He's acting as Zev, not the Broker currently.


I was thinking this might be the case, so I'll edit it so that the head was sitting on the counter. Thanks for pointing it out.
Indubitably. Boss fight time guys! THE WHEEL OF FATE IS TURNING! FATE CONSPIRED TO ARRANGE THEIR BATTLE! HEAVEN OR HELL!


The Soul Calibur narrator always has the kookiest intro dialogue.

Nero – Dragon Fang Hall

@Invisible Man@Hatakekuro


Laughing, the genie clapped Zen on the shoulder. “Sure thing, buddy! While I'm a guest in this place, I gotta obey.” He took a step in Eve's direction, but remembered something. He cast a glance Zen's way, and told him, “Actually, I have a spell that helps people recall memories from their childhood. Told you I'm a miracle worker. Pity you put that ban on me...”

After that, he approached Eve and Joslyn just as the latter was leaving to prepare for their trip. Nero had been listening attentively to the details, and a plan for how best to broach the matter had formulated itself in his mind. “So, off to visit the family home, are you? Perhaps you'd allow a homeless wanderer and his young companion to accompany you? We've certainly got nothing better to do, and I feel like I'd really want to get to know you.” He gave an embarrassed chuckle and put a hand on the back of his head. “Wow, I bet that sounded really creepy. Don't you fret, though, I'm a C-class wizard. Totally harmless in combat. Plus, I might be able to help you out. Be it memories or a new set of clothes, the Genie has it all.”

Once she'd given her reply, Nero navigated back toward the bar. He gravitated toward one of the other guild members, one who he knew somewhat by reputation. Judging by the enormous, ludicrous smiley-head lying on the counter, this could be none other than the Broker. Funny...Nero thought the man beneath the mask was, at least in this case, far less remarkable. ”Howdy do! Would you happen to know when Jack Goran is going to announce the Dragon Fang participants in the Grand Magic Games?”
Gaius and Jeane are clear to engage.
