QUOTES 8: THE QUOTING

Dys · April 2013

Ode to Aloldyne Blontine is awesome too.

Alary · May 2013

Heartsblood Ilthilior Erid'in, Adjudicator in Voidcopper says, "I will take any male you provide."

You get no context. He was talking to me. And it really wasn't that bad. But this happened. I'm still rolling. /dead

Shedrin said:

If I recall, that was when Glomdoring went Commercial, and made propaganda about collecting rockeaters.

Uhm, that was a different book.

"Know Your Foe - Rockeaters", By the Free Alliance of Glomdoring (Page 1)

Know Your Foe!

--Rockeaters--

Who is the rockeater?

The rockeater is a hated enemy of the Glomdoring. Contrary to what this

moniker implies, rockeaters do not eat rocks. What they consume is

actually a mixture of the inclination to work hard and be rewarded,

spiders, and the wyrd. Rockeaters are among the greatest threats to

Glomdoring's stability. Where there is vileness and apathy, there you

will always find the rockeater.

Quick Facts

Fact: Rockeaters were created by the elder god Bollikin, the same divine

atrocity who splintered into the furrikin so frequently found in

Serenwilde. Could Serenwilde be using the rockeaters to plague us?

Fact: Rockeaters attack with fire. Pyromancers also attack with fire.

The City of Gaudiguch, and its propensity for languor and drug-addled

debauchery are well known. Where dwell the Illuminati, beware of

coincidence.

Fact: Rockeaters are aggressive breeders. Day after day they swarm the

mountainsides and the undervault, despite even the most relentless

hunting. Are they mere foot soldiers, or is it possible that they are

part of a greater scheme?

Where the Enemy Lives

Rockeaters are a dangerously adaptive species, able to survive in a

variety of environments. They live in mountains. They live in the seas.

They live underground. They live in the squalid ruins of the Celestian

Empire. Rockeaters are known to cavort with cave fishers, both alive and

undead. These beasts are responsible for the deaths of countless commune

members. Make no mistake - these creatures are not benign in any sense

of the word. They lay in wait, seeking only to destroy.

Siam · May 2013

So, I was just killed by a horrific, diseased parasite from Muud. I phoenixed and put up defenses then I got this insanity message:

A horrific, diseased parasite challenges your memories.

Kagato · May 2013

Struggling with a massive hunk of driftwood, one chunky dove flutters over the city before becoming
overwhelmed with the driftwood's weight, plummeting into the city of New Celest with a loud whistle,
thunk, and questionable sound halfway between a 'splat' and and a 'splorch'.

(After a search of the city)

(Celest) Kagato: "Has anyone seen anything out of the ordinary within the city? I just saw a dove fly
into the city carrying a piece of driftwood only to go splat somewhere within the city limits."
(Celest) Velgen: "They just don't make doves like they used to."

Everiine · May 2013

Curiously, Glimmer of Moondust, Cairxauhoyol says, "Abeytu is a male name?"

Masala snickers softly to herself.

You nod your head at Cairxauhoyol.

Glimmer of Moondust, Cairxauhoyol says, "He seems unusually tall for a male."

You say to Cairxauhoyol, "I suspect you have the same problem with non-Kephera as most surfacers do with Kephera."

You say to Cairxauhoyol, "What about me? I'm tall."

You have emoted: Everiine stands up straight and tall.

Cairxauhoyol nods her head in agreement.

Masala tilts her head curiously.

Glimmer of Moondust, Cairxauhoyol says, "You are very tall and a great leader, yes? Clearly a female."

You utter a deep, rumbling laugh.

You say to Cairxauhoyol, "So long as those are connected, you may continue to think that."

Tacita · May 2013

2013/05/03 17:05:56 - Synkarin declared Ssaliss to be a formal enemy. Reason: because he smells terrible (testing)

2013/05/03 17:07:34 - Synkarin declared that Ssaliss is no longer an enemy. Reason: test concluded and he took a bath.

Shaddus · May 2013

Talking about artifacts and who has what, and the stopped watch comes up.

(Ship): Faragan says, "I like my age being seen. I look simply fabulous for my age."

Tacita · May 2013

Reality shifts, the sky tinging into whispering veils of changing paradigms as the weirdly-echoing voice of Mysrai intones, "Come, are these the only ones who shall come forth to test the might of their chest within this contest?"

Grizzly Munsia D'cente`, The Sharp Fanged thunders, "Only if Scuchi Mabuchi were still alive."

Warlord Morshoth Ryseni, the Kooky Konfectioner shouts, "Nobody's melons can compete with ours, it seems!"

Grizzly Munsia D'cente`, The Sharp Fanged thunders, "Everyone else pales in comparison since."

(The Canvas): Isune says, "How utterly vulgar."

Oari K'ian Doim Elanorwen Nightshade shouts, "Faeling chests don't tend to be the most durable or buxom... but I guess we can arrange a few penumbras."

(The Canvas): You say, "I...I don't even understand what they're talking about anymore."

Warlord Morshoth Ryseni, the Kooky Konfectioner shouts, "Work what Mother Night gave ya!"

(The Canvas): Isune says, "Never you mind, dear. Merely melons, a most misunderstood fruit."

Penitent Pectus shouts, "I would, but I fear I no longer exist. A pity!"

(The Canvas): You say, "I've always liked melon."

(The Canvas): Volucer says, "Euch. Fruit."

(The Canvas): Volucer says, "If you're going to have a contest, it should be for meat."

(The Canvas): Isune says, "Sadly, I believe that statement is not entirely inaccurate in this situation, Volucer."

(The Canvas): Volucer says, "I don't get it."

(The Canvas): You say, "Oh, I wouldn't worry! I don't either."

Volucer.

Alary · May 2013

You say, "I steal my quill feathers from postal wakabis."

Diamine gives you a horrified gasp.

You say, "Ones they've shed!"

Comprehension flashes across Diamine's face.

You say, "I am not chasing wakabis around plucking feathers."

Admittedly, it is a hilarious image of Alary running after postal wakabi trying to steal their feathers.

Shaddus · May 2013

So, yeah. I flew over the Forsaken warriors in Climanti earlier, trying to explore. I found a few ice spectres, and thought I'd hunt them down.

Among shards of broken glass. (road).

The shadowy outline of a twisted forest casts a dark gloom here. It is well below freezing and your

breath is a white haze. The broken steps have been mutilated by some awesome force, the ground

covered entirely in tiny shards of glass that gloomily reflect any light that reaches here, making

this pathway dangerous by night and unpleasant during the day. Above, one can see a desecrated

building has attempted to collapse, and now leans dangerously against another edifice, causing a

makeshift bridge while casting a great, looming shadow over the area; some large chunks of stone

having fallen around the area, violently breaking up the stairs. The lower tier of the city from

this vantage point is in a sad state, the southern wall broken in most places, buildings fallen down

along with spires poking up from the stiff ground, a forlorn experience though the majesty of the

valley beyond takes one's breath away. There are 2 ice spectres here.

You see exits leading north, south, and up.

Sending: generator beam ice

Pressing your finger into the round trigger hole in the base of your beam generator sends reagents

racing through conduits to the opposite end where a spark ignites at the three-pronged crystal tip.

With a loud burst, a beam of blue-white light shoots from your generator and slams into an ice

spectre, burning the air around him as the energy spreads across his body.

5878h, 5996m, 6096e, 10p, 22938en, 21888w Bxk-(-100 Mana)

A Forsaken warrior appears in a bitter swirl of snow.

5878h, 5996m, 6096e, 10p, 22940en, 21904w Bxk-

With a howl, an ice spectre passes through your warm body, siphoning away heat and chilling you down

to the bone.

5436h, 5996m, 6096e, 10p, 22940en, 21904w Bxk-(-442 Health)

A Forsaken warrior exclaims, "You do be earning death for trespassing here, Entrias!"

5436h, 5996m, 6096e, 10p, 22940en, 21904w Bxk-

You have recovered equilibrium. (4.288s)

5436h, 6071m, 6096e, 10p, 22940en, 21904w Bexk-(+75 Mana)

An ice spectre scrapes at your face with frigid, gnarled claws, leaving you frostbitten and bloody.

A Forsaken warrior draws his painted hands together, arching fingers and shifting positions just so,

lining up painted markings.

You scream hideously, crumbling to the ground and grasping at your head as a thousand unheard voices

become heard.

You scream hideously, crumbling to the ground and grasping at your head as a thousand unheard voices

A Forsaken warrior hacks at your left ear, and blood fills your ear canal, making you somewhat dizzy.

Flourishing a sword of tusk and ice above his head, a Forsaken warrior takes a swing at you. The

strike to your right arm bursts an artery and blood spurts in all directions.

A prickly stinging overcomes your body, fading away into numbness.

A Forsaken warrior hacks at your left ear, and blood fills your ear canal, making you somewhat dizzy.

A Forsaken warrior strikes deep into your right foot, pinning it down with a sword of tusk and ice.

You involuntarily crumple to a crouch and can think of nothing but freeing your impaled foot.

Flourishing a sword of tusk and ice above his head, a Forsaken warrior takes a swing at you. The

strike to your right arm bursts an artery and blood spurts in all directions.

A prickly stinging overcomes your body, fading away into numbness.

You have been slain by a Forsaken warrior.

You become visible once more.

You come back into focus as the blur illusion vanishes.

They do not like house guests who try to sneak by their welcoming party.

I've seen them enter the room with me flying, then fall to the ground... made me facepalm so hard.

The world tilts as you sense Synkarin challenge the Domotheos of War.

- few seconds later -

(Disciples of Klangratch): You say, "/gank."

Synkarin has been beaten to a pulp by a champion of war.

You see the death occur at among fields of corpses. (14883)

From your knowledge, that room is in Realms of the Nine Domoth.

(Market): Xeria says, "Looking for a cok!"

(Anonymous): Kelly (from the Realm of the Crown of the Exalted) says, "After them."

Xenthos · May 2013

Merians, stormtroopers, and viscanti have all combined forces? While riding Gaudiguchian beasts and some weird Hallifaxian future-tech in a pyromancer's demesne?

I'm confused. What are Stormtroopers doing in Lusternia?

Since I couldn't find a proper image with the "After them!" caption, Kelly found a picture that she liked and I decided to use it. If I can find a more suited one I'll replace it.

Sitting at the nexus...just another day....
