Once an isolated and dying township, an influx of academics, adventurers and thrill seekers have made Scalvoris Town their home. From scholars' tea shops to a new satellite campus for Viden Academy, this is an exciting place to visit or make your home!

New Subforums
So, one of the things that has changed in the new site is that the new PSF is visible to everyone. This provides us an opportunity and so, this morning I've created some subforums in there - for completed / approved threads....

Something was happening. Ulric could feel it in the back of his thoughts and his gut. He could feel something coming. He just didn't know what it was. He was beginning to feel like he had felt before he died, before Etzos, and before he'd even met Corvus. He found himself visiting...

Not being able to hear had never been too much of a hindrance for Kotton. He always liked to think of it as an extra challenge. What he did not know could not hurt him after all. Because he didn’t know what a lute sounded like, he didn’t desire it. Because he did not know what a...

When the candle was lit, its glow gave off the perfect ambience for his creativity. It was always only slightly scented. Too much and it would make his head hurt, too little and his imaginative edge would quickly begin to wane. He needed the right amount of inspiration via...

Kotton had never been so confused in his life. He began to question everything he had ever learnt- from when he was five until now. Like, why were blueberries so damn expensive? Had they always been this way? Was it because they grew in a location not within city?
Sooner or later he was destined to end up in the fighting ring again. He knew it. He felt it. On the forty fifth of Ymiden after the relief efforts had begun to slow, Ulric spent the trial at the Proving Grounds working through his turmoil by swinging his sword at the training...
A gentle breeze migrated through the crowd that was gathered in the Glass Temple. People from all walks had come to pray and honor whatever Immortal they held close to their hearts in the few trials since the temple had been cleaned after the ransacking. Unlike most crowded...
I think it's a fun idea. Robin asked Balthazar as the mage took off his boots. The Feats of Strength was hosting a derby of sorts throughout the early trials of Saun. In an attempt to help everyone get their minds off of the troubles that had so recently passed, Balthazar and a few...
Winston scurried along the pier, his little legs moving as fast as they could while also trying not to trip on the uneven planks. He was running late, having gotten caught up in an experiment at the lab with the Portellar they had planned . The ferret hoped that Balthazar would not be too...
Oram glared at the materials, the stacks of books, notes, and papers, arranged on the carrel in front of him, as if they were some sort of adversary. In a way, everybody had a nemesis to face some trial. For some, shyness might be their nemesis. For others, a lack of education...
It was nice to be warm again, he thought to himself as he made his way into the gymnasium. Now with the events of Cylus long behind him, but the recent inheritances and cataclysmic events of the Pirate attacks still very much on his mind, he was glad to simply enjoy a warm trial...

Kotton took another puff from his pipe. He had yet to feel anything. In hindsight, this was a rookie move he wouldn’t have made had he not also been drinking. Everyone who was a veteran in the affairs of drug use understood that time was your friend, not your enemy, and the fact...

Jerusha was a long time friend, someone he had met in intermediate school, but one he hadn’t spent much time with since. It wasn’t until she had found him lounging against a counter at a local bar that they started to hit things off again. She was still the redheaded Biqaj with...

At his job there were certain things he could understand, but there were more things he couldn’t. He didn't understand how someone could consciously put a bottle in the wrong section of the fridge, especially if the sections of the fridge were labelled. He couldn’t understand...

Kura sat away from the main part of the room. Normally, she did very well with crowds, they were part of the job after all, but today, she couldn't deal with them. She wasn't...

Kotton, knowing he wasn’t very strong, sought to be less weak. His virtues and morals, his ethos and high regards for equality, were bound so tightly within his making that their power necessitated assistance. He understood that words alone did not always suffice. He knew that...

Kotton had always gotten angry when he accidentally dropped something, even more so if his wick was already smoking; the embers only needed that additional breath of oxygen to really get his 'pissed off-ness going. But he never stopped to take a breath and clear his mind and...
Excuse me, but what? Dead birds falling out of the sky? Elisabeth had been on the beach meditating when the pair of Haven's guards found her. Silk had just returned from Scalvoris Town with Balder, where both had business to attend to, and...
Kisaik concludes his quest to become drunk, at the hands of a Anak of Inebriation, by buying a round of the strongest drink for everyone in the tavern/casino.

Arc 722, 18th of Cylus
Darius awoke to the sound of a cockerel.
It wasn't as familiar a sound as it once had been, for there were not...
Slowly, Bao approached the temple in the dark of the night.
So much death had happened lately, Bao missing so much of it. What could he have done? Even if he had been around, if he hadn't been out travelling Scalvoris for a place to watch the stars, he was a man...
