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....
The Website: Standing Trials ( / ), referred to through the rest of this thread as the website , our website , the site , our site , Standing Trials , and Trials .

In truth, to say that Erina's life was a particularly amazing one full of wonderment and adventure would be a blatant falsehood, one that was steeped in a desire for greater things. However, she for the most part found her life was monotonous out here in the wilderness. Living by modest means and...

Slowly crouching down in the sparse brush, Illuvia’s breath was steady, ignoring the chilly morning air in her lungs. Their target’s camp lay ahead, haphazardly spread beneath the shadow of a ridge. There were a collection of tents uncoupled in design and arrangement coiling around...
Location: Old Dynaash Several places that had, until recently, are found to be just absolutely infested with every kind of infested that one could imagine. Too many, in fact, as anyone who is considered knowledgeable in...
He'd not intended to be idle while those responsible for the attack on Egilrun had gone unpunished, as far as could be told. Few punishments were sufficient when it came to the crime committed.
Woe knew that Webspinners had been involved, and so sought out the...
The prior few days had proceeded, and despite their initial resistance against the bone men of the Bone Yard , the Northern Reaches Fortress had been nearly overrun. And now, the civilians and soldiers holed up in the highest bastion off the Fortress, only sallying out through the bridges that...
The moment that Karem chose to take Nir'wei aside was hers alone to decide, and she did decide to do it without forewarning, but with some consideration for Nir'wei's delicate agenda. While she wanted to teach him a lesson, it was important that the lesson not exacerbate any...
Jinyel didn’t spare any effort for stealth. His quarry was caught, and there was no telling how long it would remain so. He crossed the distance at a run, leaving behind the quiet barn for the much less quiet coop. It wasn’t just the fox that was screaming; chickens squawked...
She’d traveled in the guise that she’d inhabited since leaving Scalvoris. With anima’s female human form and blending from Woe to make her distinct enough from Anima herself, she’d not yet stepped outside of this body with her newfound magic. In truth, she dreaded the painful transformation, and...
The coastal ice was abating with a sudden influx of traffic. Woe sent Egil ahead to scout the boats, and see if any of his family were above decks, or could be spotted that way, but no luck. Afterall, who would be seen outside the relative comfort of a ship’s galley while the wind was absolutely...
The small port village in Winter’s Reach was a quiet and peaceful place. Laden with soft snows, the drifts flowed and flurried with every little updraft of wind from the sea. The beaches were laden with light ice floes, lighter than usual give the ever oppressive suns of Saun, chasing what it could...
Luvi stood by the road, shooting arrows absent mindedly off to the side to kill some time. She and the soldiers she was travelling with stood at a fairly large rock that served as a landmark for passersby. She wasn’t privy to exactly who they were waiting on, but she was used to not knowing very...
Luvi slept on a bedroll underneath the stary sky. Unbeknownst to her, a beast was lurking in the darkness. It crept over slowly, its four legs barely making a sound as it moved along the edge of the camp. It sniffed the air, detecting delicious food nearby but that could wait. There were more...
Jinyel set foot in the Immortal Empire the way he liked to set foot everywhere ― unremarkably. He didn’t measure progress by trials, but by the slow change of dry climate to grass, from gold to green and from guarded to hopeful. The merchant caravan counted down farmsteads in the same way they...
As a rule, Jinyel didn’t like warriors. Professional warriors, especially. The more weapons they had, the less Jinyel liked them, and he typically strived to either avoid them entirely, or to blend into the background to escape their notice. But there were, unfortunately, some warriors he disliked...
Luvi sat on her horse while riding off to the south in a group of soldiers. Their job was simply to patrol all towards the south, towards the edge of the empire’s border with Yaralon. It sounded exciting at first, but most of their time was filled with monotony. There were only so many bandits...
When Luvi used her kunai in a sparring session with another swordsman, she realized that she had been letting her competence with shorter blades go out of practice quite a bit. It wasn't to her taste because shorter blades meant she had to take more risk. After spending a half hour to restore...
Luvi’s desire to travel more often had resulted in her being assigned to a small group of soldiers who patrolled the various routes within the empire. It was a simple job most of the time, but from time to time they did run into trouble. There were always travelers in need of...
Luvi and Lumina sat on top of the same Ragdila. It was their turn to rest while others walked – they didn’t have enough mounts for everyone. Luvi had been unimpressed with the creature up until recently. It was just a big turtle, and turtles didn’t move very quickly. She much preferred her horse,...
The morning was hot even before the sun rose. Luvi dunked her head into a bucket of water – not the cleanest water, but one had to make do in the desert. “Fuck it’s hot,” she cursed as she lifted her head and let the liquid travel down her clothed body. It’d been a while since she’d had a proper...
Luvi sat at a table with the stone that she’d been working for quite some time on yet never seemed to make much progress on. She’d been trying to make something halfway decent with sculpting for the better part of a season but was still terrible. She’d started to blame her mutated...
It was late in the afternoon when Luvi finally got a chance to do a bit of training. Technically most of her day had been training, but it wasn’t the sort that brought her joy. Rucking several miles in the morning followed by formation drills and then cleaning wasn’t exactly her...
Luvi heard a rustling to her side from beside the tent she knelt next to. Before she could react, someone jumped out and tackled her to the ground from behind. She fell prone and her first instinct was to stab her sword over her shoulder. It was easier said...
Luvi was new to the area but she had learned a little bit about who the military typically fought against. There was no open war, but there were always bandits to deal with and hostile tribes that roamed nomadically throughout some of the regions. Nobody had told her this...
Life as a private wasn’t the least bit glamorous. It was a lot of grunt work, physical labor, and getting yelled at. Still, it wasn’t completely devoid of fun. There were sparring sessions which Illuvia excelled at for her rank and people were often sent off to accomplish some...
