11.22.08 Character Bios Update: Your character may now start off with TEN items. Please alter your Character Bios Items section. Also, a few new items have been added to the Item Index and more are to come. Again, we are open to just about any idea for new items, ports, and groups. Expect a Minor Port soon. I also apologize for my absence on the forum - a lot of things are happening around me including school finals and a funeral. Things may move a little slow, but I will get back to working on the forum ASAP. - Sheri

11.16.08 There are currently three openings for the Bank Admin Position. A few boards have been rearranged, but nothing big. Deciding on new items and we are very lenient on customs and ideas right now so if you have any ideas for items, groups, or ports, please feed us with your thoughts! The items list is growing very slowly. - Sheri

11.11.08 So, we have decided on a Bank System. It is a combination of the Board and Thread idea. And if this fails... Well, we've got another plan. So let's just see how it all works out! - Sheri

11.01.08 Well since our currency system has done itself over, we have come up with a new way to work the currency by trying to establish a set Bank system. Problem is we have to choose between two ways of organizing it... By board or by thread. Please give us your opinion on this issue. - Sheri

10.20.08 As you can tell, we have the new updates box finished a day or so sooner than we had anticipated. If you have any ideas for how we could further improve the site, just post your idea on the Suggestion board. Thank you for your patience with this. - Rawr-o-Nora

The Twisted Fates: Prologue
Seer of the Twisted Fates

For an age and through the haze
Awaiting things for days and days
From the future to my ear
Come to me from many a year

What do I hear, what do I see?
What visions have now come to me?
Tales of knights in armoured plate
In my twist or signs of fate

A premonition whispers so
Of a maiden fair and fro
With flowing locks of golden lace
The softest skin and porcelain face

But in the end a cold mist draws
Of fiery fang and sharpened claws
Eyes are broken, lost in rage
Shall take the maiden to its cage

She, when there, shall lie in wait
For that thing which she calls fate
To save the maiden from discord
A hero comes to draw his sword

But before words escape from me
I have something left to see
Is the truth found within this
Or merely work of mental bliss

The Twisted Fates: I
A Hard Choice


A royal man, his royal court
From the East to Western port
Dilemma stretched upon his brow
A choice to make, but how, but how?

He paced across the stony floor
Left then right, then left once more
To the windows for the view
Of which enjoyed by but a few

But for the problem now at hand
Enjoyment he could not demand
So hung his head and closed his gaze
he action left him in a daze

When felt a touch upon his arm
A gentle touch, not one to harm
He turn about to lift his eyes
Toward his queen, about to cry

He reached around and pulled her in
To protect her from thoughts within
Tight he held the warm embrace
To shelter her from their disgrace

"What shall we do, I do not know"
She whispered to his ear just so
And eyes held closed for moments rest
She leaned herself against her chest

He held his breath a took a pause
What is the right thing for this cause
Their daughters life or people's scourn
For which the ancient witch did warn

She warned of bloodshed, warned of war
Written to a harshened score
Millions will be lost to slaughter
Lest they give their only daughter

The princess who was very young
With whim, they had thought then, to run
But the thought they did dismiss
The plan was sure to hit remiss

King of lands let out a sigh
To make a call, the time was nigh
He looked into the eyes of his queen
And toward her ear to lean

"I've made my choice, my choice is this
Our daughter we shall dearly miss
But if she lives away from we
Then she shall live, and we shall see"

"On the eve' of Winter's night
We'll send her in the dead of night
To a land so far from here
She shall live, the world shan't fear"

The queen the heaved a frightful gasp
And in her fingers she did grasp
She pounded on her husbands chest
She was so sad, but he knew best

They'd all agree, everyone
For them all, to the last one
And though the world shall lose it's heir
In their hearts she shall be near

The Twisted Fates: II
An Arbitrary Quest


Where have all the flowers gone?
She seeks their morning sunshine song
A youthful woman, but of end
Nurtured flowers for a friend

The friend was someone dear to her
The wraith of whom she shan't infer
To find the flowers she must go
What took them all, she just must know

She took a stick from off the shelf
And some vitals for herself
How long the journey is to take?
On to success, without mistake

The sun was far as she crossed the field
And to the night she would not yield
In the distant wood there came
A path to lead to river's fame

River's fame for fisher's joy
To capture all the golden joy
In the dark, the waters dance
She only gave a slightest glance

The bridge she crossed so strong and new
And over earth she stood anew
Through the wood a little more
Then in the distance where she saw

Straight beneath the light of moon
Sat the spot of midnight croon
Gone were all the vibrant flowers
Taken by one with mystic powers

Why take just flowers from the patch
The stems were surely there to match
But still they only took the part
Where life and beauty make a start

So the maiden stole a clue
And knew just what she had to do
The culprit left her quite a track
And with her stick she'll get them back

A single petal to the West
Said that's the path to travel best
Holding hem of her cotton dress
She ran to sort the sordid mess

Through bushes, roots and shallow streams
The adventure of her dreams
And with a smile parted lips
She hummed while swaying youthful hips

After time the wood had cleared
To the village that it neared
"Someone here must be the thief
That is my surest belief!"

As she strode the unpaved streets
T'was only beggars hat she meets
The rest were all so still asleep
In their minds, their dreams so deep

The young girl stopped outside a shack
Made of stone and painted black
On the doorstep made of metal
Sat a lone, red flower petal

The Twisted Fates: III
Wonderous Depths


The door opened slowly with naught but a creak
She held in her breath and dare not to speak
Long depths within were dark as the night
To give to the girl such ever-so-fright

The darkness, she felt, called out her name
It gave her a chill and forget her game
Though now felt compelled to turn on her back
She reached right on out, into the black

The air stood still and cool on her face
Filling the quaint quiet embodied space
Closer she stepped into the cool air
With trembling lip to bequeath quite a scare

Further from light she stepped with an eye
Not give in ti fear, lest it shall try
With an ironed fist and haunting glare
While into the dark quiet halls she did stare

Overcome with a rush and a shivering hand
Almost fell justice to darkened demand
But remaining true to her ally she stood
She hunched up her shoulders and pulled up her hood

In silence she moved with one steady pace
What sight in the distance had made her mind race?
Another of light, so small, but a speck
Lift heart to the girl, such a shivering speck

And as she drew nearer, the light only grew
'Til as large as a space which she never knew
The light brought on hope, renewed in her heart
When she came to the source and drew breath with a start

What she saw was white dresses from fresh angel hair
With diamonds and gold, she could only stare
She reached out to touch, but before she could reach
Arose from the corner a muttered, slurred speech

"Who dareth approach my cavern of riches?
If it be-eth a dame I shall rip off he britches!
But if be-eth a man who approaches my bed
I shall jump on his back and rip off his head!"

It's high laughter screeched as she fast dived away
Into the shadows, in where she shalt stay
As around from the corners of silver and gold
Came the foulest of creatures, a million years old

Its stomach was large and covered in hair
With bloodshot red eyes and a powerful stare
Large molten rolls of bubbling fat
'T'was naked apart from a polish mine cap

It had horrid tusks, all covered in rot
A horrible sight, a horrible spot
It held up it's snout and started to vent
And curled up its lip as it picked up its scent

T'ward the shadows it streaked with quickening pace
Though the she believed she was in safer place
Into her presence, it pulled into sight
And she gasped as the beast was thrust into light

It curled up its lip with a much wider grin
As the girl looked around and he head was to spin
"I was waiting for you," it said with a sneer
And arose over her with a tooth and a leer
