Terentia · August 2020

There isn't many places for us to rave about players on the admin side of things, but I just want to say I am really thankful and pleased with my order folks. I hope we can mutually make the game something really enjoyable for all of us!

Parhelion · August 2020

Though, I can't help but think you're just going to cut peoples' heads off when you put your swords on their shoulders.

Nelras · August 2020

A rave for @Czixi, and for this:

Congratulations! You have formed a Divine Cult under the auspices of Czixi, the Welkin.

You use 10,000,000 of your divine essence.

I wasn't expecting that when I logged in part way through wildnodes last night, and I certainly didn't expect what happened IC. Thank you for all of the work that you have clearly put into it all.

Very big images.

To be honest, I do think about doing that every time.

I for one advocate stabbing your order members, making them walk round with the dagger through their heart on the brink of death, and then collecting their blood for personal use.

Sorry, this was from my phone at work

Jolanthe · August 2020

It's been a wild whirlwind of a day, but I still feel an extra thank you is due to @Maylea with regards to my homestead project.

While the review process was long, I was actually quite shocked with how quickly and efficiently it was set up and launched once everything was reviewed and approved. I can only hope it was fun to work on in kind.

A rave for @Orventa , who made an icecream recipe in my honor for Ascension!

#: 31548 Item: Icecream Type: Pastries Org: Public Designer: Orventa

Ingredients: milk 4 sugar 1 fruit 1 greentea 1 cocoa 1 snowball 1 grain 1 ambermalt 1 spices 1

Mortal Reviews: Allowed

IMPORTANT: The main noun MUST use one of these: ICECREAM, ICE, CREAM, BOWL

Appearance:

a fluted bowl brimming with bonbons of sileni tracks ice cream

Dropped:

A fluted bowl brimming with bonbons of sileni tracks ice cream is here.

Examined:

A handsome tumble of sileni hoofprint bonbons glistens tantalizingly

from within a fluted, celadon bowl, just shy of overflowing its

confines. Hazy with a light film of frosty condensation, the smooth,

marbled, sienna-hued chocolate shell of each bite-sized sweet has been

sprinkled with fragments of toffee and crunchy puffs of crisped rice.

Consume:

You pick up one of the bonbons and take a generous bite of it. Its

bittersweet chocolate outer shell shatters easily, melting at the warm

touch of your lips and tongue, giving way to reveal a pocket of bourbon

fudge hidden inside a lusciously green filling of matcha ice cream. The

faintly floral, grassy matcha and decadently rich bourbon fudge flavours

fill your mouth, mingling harmoniously with the crunchy pieces of

tooth-sticking toffee and toasted puffs of crispy rice. Syrupy, plump

tidbits of rum-soaked sultanas add a seductively spicy, yet mellow note

that resolves with a warming flourish of candied ginger. You polish off

the remaining bonbons one by one, until all that remains is the fluted

celadon bowl and a few odd smears of melted chocolate within.

Smell:

You discern a strong aroma of chocolate, burnt sugar, and bourbon.

Taste:

Bits of chilled, burnt toffee and crispy, puffed rice cling to your tongue, tasting of malty caramel

and cocoa.

Viravain, Lady of the Thorns has bestowed Her divine truefavour upon you. It will last for 2 months.

Like spiders weaving a web, the voice of Viravain, Lady of the Thorns crawls across your mind, "You
speak of My prisoner so kindly, so accurately. Wear My favour for this, and remember always the
strength of My Wyrd."

I was telling a newbie the story of Manteekan and I just :'(

Uzriel · August 2020

A huge rave to all the Magnagorans who submitted articles to me for the compendium. Lets make this a yearly thing!

Saran · September 2020

Crafted from deer leather, this pair of fingerless gloves has been tailored to provide a snug fit that can be further adjusted with a simple buckle and strap. Knotwork traces the back of the gloves, forming an abstract image of a tree. Barely discernible wisps of mist trail off the knotwork with the slightest motion. Their story is told in the signs of weathering that cover the gloves: the faded colours, the scar-like cracks and scratches, the lack of lustre to their buckles. Despite this, they are firmly intact, their age simply marked upon them.

Raising your hands in supplication, you feel a slight chill from a pair of weathered deerskin gloves as Ancestral spirits fade into view. As one the dead raise their bows to the sky and release their arrows.

Arrows wreathed in bursts of steam and beams of holy light rain down upon a large wood weevil.

You have scored a CRITICAL hit!

You focus on your wasted efforts, resolving to shift the damage forward.

A large wood weevil has been shot down by a pair of weathered deerskin gloves.

You have slain a large wood weevil.

😸 Thanks @Coraline @Tyrus and whoever actioned the request

one of the alternatives I was working on was basically...

Parhelion · September 2020

That is so much more badass than the crossbow I wrote up for mine

Gurashi · September 2020

Crossbows? Gloves that raise the dead? Those are so COOL ;A;

Me over here trying to convert my mechanical apron into a chef's one instead:

Nepenthe · September 2020

Where did you get that footage of an actual episode of Cooking with Cory?

Parhelion · September 2020

A rave for @Terentia, who always seems ready to rp with me when I'm just checking in on Eamna's daily mood

Caohite · September 2020

We can't really recognize gods but uh @Maylea ? I cried like a BABY

Same!!! Maylea made that ceremony.

Huge huge raves to Maylea for the ceremony (and I love this amber so much), to Raezon's sweet interaction that made Lief jump out of her skin, to Mysrai/Aschwar (this poppy!!!) and I hear Nocht left Lief alone for a big reason on her big day.

Huge huge raves to Zitto for being a most excellent partner in crime, Gurashi for the catering and drunktimes, Caohite for delicious foods I lost and will now devote Lief's life to eating and drinking when they are approved, Faythe for the reception games, and everyone who played!

I made 40 wedding gift baskets figuring I was making at least twice as many as I'd need. I have 8 on hand now.

a blossom of blue flame

The substance of this delicate bloom appears to be made of air, or pure essence, for the blossom is ever-changing in its shape and quality of light. Five petals it bears, each flickering like a tongue of blue flame, flashing with harsh sparks of silver. The petals sway and dance together with a cold, stark glow, which rather than illuminating, instead casts into relief the blackness of the shadows. A pentagram rests at the centre of the bloom, its inky lines searing themselves into the mind.

It weighs 5 ounce(s).

It has the following aliases: blossom.

posed: a blossom of blue flame tucked into the sash of her robes, its fires darkening the shadows that they cast

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

a sylphine poppy with stained blossoms

Larger than average, this poppy has been carefully and tenderly grown into an exact shape. Rather than falling into the traditional bell shape, its petals have spread upwards and outwards from the center pistil and stamen. The delicate white flesh has been stained throughout with the image of pink apple blossoms, swirling in a small storm around the center. Along the bottom of the petals, a small layer of sylphine flesh akin to butterfly wings fall away like peeling skin, the delicate strips shimmering with occasional opalescence in the ambient light.

It has 29 months of usefulness left.

It weighs 2 ounce(s).

It does not retain any heat whatsoever.

It has the following aliases: poppy, flower.

posed: a sylphine poppy with stained blossoms tucked behind her left ear, its enormous petals adorned with the images of apple blossoms

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

a piece of amber bearing peach petals

This piece of amber is unusual in that it is devoid of the common golden tint of the sap that formed it. Instead, the substance is nearly clear, shimmering with a spray of many colours as light passes through it. A few peach petals of radiant orange-pink hue have been encased perfectly within, as if being blown by the wind, and indeed, perhaps by some divine magic, the petals do occasionally move and tumble when viewed from the corner of the eye. In silver text, the name 'Lief' has been inscribed upon the amber, glowing even in the darkest of shadows.

It has 30 months of usefulness left.

It weighs 4 ounce(s).

It has the following aliases: amber, piece.

Eritheyl · September 2020

@Lysandus, @Drastrath, @Dys, @Afrit, @Mboagn, @Vyell and others - combat raves! For years and years it's been so much easier to just say "lol I'm a non-com" than to really commit to putting the work into learning, but I'm having a blast with the back and forth of trying out new things, even as I work on rebuilding my knowledge base of the easy stuff. My deaths will still be plentiful and likely embarrassing, but I'm having such a good time of it now as opposed to just throwing my hands up!

Taemira · September 2020

@Maylea every interaction with you has been absolutely amazing. This has been my first time ever getting involved with an Order, and it has been a blast. Though I have to say that you've caught me off-guard every single time. First couple times I was just about to hit enter on logging off to go do something for a bit, and then tonight "It's late, I'mma go talk to the air for a bit... whoops!". Needless to say, I now get a little nervous when I go to log off

Clearly that will induce a phobia of logging off in you, and therefore prevent you from logging off ever! (Going as planned :P )

In truth, though, I am glad you are enjoying it. And for you, or anyone else, if you do need to go, it's okay to say so, even ICly. We understand everyone has real life and that comes first!

If it's any consolation, it only gives you messages if your deity makes it do so.
