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!
We're starting a little something different, somewhat in the spirit of the NaNoWriMo, since we're a writing site it seems appropriate to take the opportunity to motivate each other to have some fun and earn some medals by starting and completing...

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....

Having been impressed with what he saw of Element troopers such as Balthazar Black, yet more to the point, impressed with the respect and gravitas their presence commanded, Kalortah decided to join up with the Elements. It wasn't unheard of for Council Members to take up arms...

Erik Ki'Ufnaj did not often find time to relax. He worked long trials that consisted of long breaks, and the role of a harbour master was never quite finished, especially in a place as busy as Scalvoris Town.
In Ashan, Victor, the younger brother of Lord Stefan Amielle of Lysoria, finally returned to Scalvoris where he had studied and worked as a researcher at the Institute of Metaphysics once upon a time. He needed a break before he finally decided what he wanted to do with the...
“You should probably come back in a few trials so that I can check if everything’s healing fine”, Devin remarked cheerfully, put his gloves and his face mask away and smiled at Kedyr. Kedyr didn’t return the smile. The...
“So, this is it!” Devin remarked cheerfully and ushered the very confused and kind of scared Avriel who had tried to break into his house a few bits earlier into his treatment room. He had promised not to alert the guards in...
Natalie was wandering through the streets of Scalvoris Town, much like she often did while here. She was in a residential area, all houses and apartments, with the occasional small shop here and there. Nat was watching the windows she was passing by, mostly seeing curtains. There...
Devin awoke to the sounds of birds chirping which was a somewhat unusual sound to wake up to, although it was a sound that he liked, of course. For a moment, he was a little confused because he was clearly not in his own bed – or someone...

My friend Bert, the large stuffed bunny, thinks that you're being rude!
Darius had yelled the incriminating words, and he'd even stamped his foot on the grass outside and folded his little arms in a huff to drive home the...

After his experience with Rose the rather quirky librarian , Darius was somewhat hesitant to accept offers of employment that were not clearly intended for someone with experience in either seafaring or woodworking.
The Tower Satravial as a structure has two clasess of entrance. One is deemed in Lorien, 'Hasin'avel' or 'Servant's Reception'. The other is referred to as 'Orien'avel' or the 'Master's Reception'. The former is accessible via a staircase at the...

Balthazar sat, alone, in an unremarkable room in an unremarkable Inn somewhere unremarkably placed in Scalvoris. Not even a break ago it had all mattered to him. He'd asked for the the nicest sheets for the beds in their room and with a little bribe the owner was more than willing to...

I don't know, it seems odd. Balthazar said to Isabella as they walked with their arms linked. He slowed his pace to meet hers as they walked and he didn't mind. She'd just posed an... interesting idea about what they could do with their free time if Balthazar truly had nothing else...
On the 104th of Ashan, Devin Thorn, thief, conman extraordinaire and recently initiated Becomer returned home from university, sweating somewhat unappealingly because it was quite hot, and went to look for his roommate and friend with benefits Aidan. The slightly older man was...
A small bell tinkled as Natalie pushed her way into Peyter's Pots and Potions . She looked up at the bell smiling, not having expected to hear it. It was cute, and she'd certainly remember it. And she definitely appreciated it. There behind the counter on the opposite end of the...
On the 10th of Ashan, Devin Thorn, thief, conman extraordinaire and esteemed member of the Scalvoris Council (he was the new Academic!) walked into Petyr’s Potions, a huge smile on his face and a spring in his step, because he had come up with a way to increase his popularity,...

Darius heard Rose's voice before he had even entered the library.
The bearded blond was more familiar with the wide open spaces of the ocean, having spent much more time on the water than in a library, but he was fairly sure...

Sand flew into the air as another brawler collapsed, having been knocked unconscious by a heel to the back of his head. Balthazar stumbled back from his opponent for a moment- tense and ready for the brawler to rise and continue the fight... but he didn’t rise. Balthazar eased...

Darius stepped carefully through the thicket of trees. It was dark enough despite no longer being Cylus, and the shadows that each trunk only served to make the poor visibility even worse. It also felt much colder there, with...

With one last sawing motion, the piece of wood was cut in two. A quick check with a marked piece of string confirmed that it was of a perfect length, and after a little sanding, its end was nice and smooth.

Scalvoris Town: Little Korlasir.
8th Ashan, 720
The heat of the forge slapped Tio across the face like an invisible wall, making him recoil back on pure instinct. Morgana, standing by his side, shot him one of her patented unimpressed looks and...
The second glass of was not as forgiving as the first. Yeva had to take a bit more time to compose herself, and Azrael, sensing this, rubbed her back, Wine's supposed to be sipped, not thrown back like a liquor.
I know, she grumbled, breathing out the vapors of fire and regret,...
Over the course of the past couple of trials, Devin, his roommate Aidan and their amnesiac Sev’ryn guest that they had decided to call Mik’hail since they didn’t know his real name had settled into a bit of a routine. In the morning, Devin and Aidan showed...

My friend, Bert, the large stuffed bunny, thinks that you're being rude Balthazar jabbed his thumb back to point at the air behind himself. The bar patron beside him cast a sideways glance at the alcohol reeking Balthazar who seemed to sway on the stool he was sitting on. Balthazar...
The son of Ziell had decided to never join the Order of the Adunih, for a number of reasons, even though he had worked as a healer in the past and still occasionally helped out in the Infirmary in Viden, despite his duties at the Academy. He...

Mother fucker! Balthazar screamed at the top of his lungs as he dropped to the ground gripping his hand in pain. He'd come to the Proving Grounds after a little nap to work out some of his issues on a few other fighters but things had taken a bad turn. He was hungover and it made his...
