I'm sure you're out there, lurking or something... Step out of the shadows, post.

I was out for a week on business, came back and was surprised to see so few posts. Let's keep Adylheim active and running. If you're at a loss of what to do but want to do something, message me; I'd be glad to get a mini adventure going for you.

Now lets rock Adylheim out!

Three seems to be my auspicious number. Three years from this very day I timidly walked across these well worn paving stones and requested, perhaps even demanded, an audience with the Abbess. How bold I was, a peasant girl with the dirt of the fields still between her toes, to ask for entrance into the Order of Aquae.

Three for principles I must remember as I leave the temple and begin my journey of service: duty, dedication and devotion. These three are entwined and wrapped tight as the rawhide hilt of my sword.

So. Skay recently pointed out some of what she sees as faults with the play by post system, it's difficult to carry any kind of reputation as a character from thread to thread being the most important one. The difference to video game rpgs where NPCs eventually come to hail you as the saviour of the world and such. So, I thought it might be worth a little thought to ruminate on the whys and wherefores.

First, let's look at the differences between the two.

On what has been dubbed both the world's newest, largest atom smasher and the potential bringer of Doomsday. I'm all for discovery and scientific reseach. However...

I'm suffering a little from writer's block currently. As per usual, I find the only way to get through it is to power through, but I'm a discerning writer. I don't like writing if I'm not satisfied with what I post. It annoys me that it takes me a couple of hours to wrangle together a pair of paragraphs which I'm only really kind of satisfied with. My apologies to those I'm in threads with.

So I try to write other things, like this blog here, to take my mind off things and to get my writing juices going.
