Almund is a thriving township with a dark side. With houses made from the wooden bodies of decommissioned ships, there are many opportunities here, coupled with many dangers.
The Hot Cycle has Ymiden (83 Trials) and then Saun (40 Trials) which are open for you to play. All new threads from June 1st 2022 - September 30th 2022 should be timestamped within one of those two seasons.
Please see Timekeeping for more information and reach out to a member...
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. You'll note that there are now separate...

For arcs 'The Siren's Embrace' has made business situated in the heart of Almund, offering a more 'exotic' variety of men and woman for customers than man most brothels. Finely decorated in cool shades of blue, purple, green, gold and silver; it has become known as a centre...
An unassuming building on the dark side of Almund, the damp smell of tobacco and sex gives away its true purpose beneath its homely façade. Nellie's is a large old house in a street which was once quite wealthy but which has fallen into disarray. Through the open doors comes the sound...
A place to rest, put your feet up and indulge in a good supper, the Buckle and Chain Tavern has been the local Almund pub of choice for the general populace for over thirty arcs. With a long history of serving, there are many a patron who have become fond of the pub as...
As of Ymiden 38th, this location is abandoned. It is locked and secure, but there is no sign of Berlwin
Berlwin's Brews
A dark gloomy air hangs around Berlwin's Brews. Located in the back alleys of Almund, the shop is only known to those who know where to seek it. As a trader of poison...
Located in Almund, this centre has recntly located into a building which used to be a large cargo-carrying ship; with more space than they've ever had, new and interesting sorts of injuries popping up left right and center and business for Dukahrn is bustling. Plenty...
Technically 'Mad O'Rourkes Dun Cow Pie Shop' , this establishment is usually either known just as Mad O'Rourkes or the Pie Shop. The place is known for its strange and rather weird staff members and the fact that there is a cat who is more important than any staff member or...
The Kennel is a fairly recent addition to the streets of Almund, only a few arcs old . Originally, Gibney Connick took on odd jobs by himself, ranging from deliveries to simple merc work to investigations. He found he was so in demand that he was turning jobs down. A conversation...
On the 38th Ymiden 721, Efah was found dead in her shop. The bones closed that day.
The Bones
Tucked away down an alley in Almund, the entrance to the Bones is an unassuming wooden door, until one looks up and sees the skulls of the former proprietors mortared into the lintel, forever...
The pub was full of drunk, rowdy sailors. They were cheering and carrying on in a way that felt a little extravagant. Ale was sloshing over the mugs, the smell of stew mixing with the faint scent of piss and sex. These men were enjoying their land days before...
Vhalar, 1st Trial, a few breaks after Gunvorton is attacked
It was not very long before Gunvorton was attacked, a wagon and a horse taken, as Eir seems just about stable enough to make it through. No wounds or discernible scars, just shaken hands and breathless breathing. No air, no time for...
Much time has passed since Eir had crash landed, being only a few hours since landing ashore. The Gunvorton docks were no place for him to truly call his home. The man was on a mission, a mission of getting well on his way from the shores of...
The Shadows' Plunder
2 Vhalar 716
Moderated by: Djinn
The trial had been total chaos. There was no other way to describe it. Scalvorans ran back and forth, some dodging shadows, some trying to find them to fight. In the beginning, there was no organized response. The Pirate Lords and the Navy...
The night is dark, but the morning is full of terrors. Early Vhalar sees a rise in attacks by mysterious shadow creatures, and there is nowhere in Idalos not affected by the blight. In Scalvoris, the Twenty Pirate Lords are dealing with the Shadow Creatures the best they can, but more and more are...
The fuck you talking about? On the tab!? Whip out the coin or I'll whip out my shiv! With a deep sigh, Gaunt rummaged through his pockets and whipped out a VERY impressive ammount of lint, corks and even a doggy treat. His face beamed up as if...
Date: Saun 20th, 716
Location: Somewhere off the Coast of Scalvoris
Bri floated in the water, just her head poking out above the surface. Around her the rest of her tribe floated, motionless as they stared at the wallowing ship ahead. It was a large merchant ship, triple masted, and they could see...
It was an ungodly hour in the morning. The sort where even night owls and party animals have stumbled home to bed, but the masochists who rose when it was still almost night weren't up yet. Almund was as quiet as Almund got, which granted was not very compared to some places,...
It sure was a grimy sight, all those skulls cemented crudely into the wall above the Bones' doorway. Sure, it served its purpose to give off that spooky vibe that one would expect from a 'seer' specialized in reading bones and whatnot. Gaunt just couldn't help...
Catalina 'Raynarde' Devoe was a woman with a plan. She knew what that plan was and she was working towards it. One trial (and probably a fair few in the future, but that was alright, she could wait) she was going to be a Pirate Lord. With her own ship and her own crew. And in...
Life's Pretty Good. And Why Wouldn't It Be? I'm A Pirate, After All
You lie Catalina said to the Biqaj man who was sitting opposite her with a wide smile on his face. He nodded his head and flourished an elaborate bow You wound me, Raynarde, my heart it is broken with your...
