Posted a new journal entry to seek Tis and Mia to aid me in a peaceful meeting with Ash and the Elven Witch.
RP Challenge Sign-up(Rising Sun Fellowship)#2
Answered with Mia and Darth, hope you don't mind if he tags along?
I don't mind at all Mia. The more the merrier! :)
And the plot thickens!! Oh my Kel...are you afraid? Let me help you....Mia is ready to go after whoever it is trying to steal Cyaer from her. And she will stop at nothing. Solo, you think you can hold Nic long enough for Mia to do the job?
My goodness, if we can survive this blow to the Fellowship...we can survive anything!!
Cyaer, you had better have a plan, in case Mia finds out what is going on. You think Vira is ruthless? Oh my...you are so wrong.

Let me address these one by one...
Kel is very afraid, and she hates herself, and tried to kill herself, until a certain death knight stopped that.
And then the friendly Tuskarr might have convinced her that the truth is better.
I don't think Nic will need holding back... I'm afraid he'll either be running away, or going after Kel.
Also!
Something on my mind!
We are, not only mostly impulsive people, but, it -would- be nice if people would hear people out ICly... It gets poor Kel frustrated when people come after her before she can justify things.
Oh this will all be done IC, I assure you. Make sure you check the Journal posts. Cy confessed to Mia, but he did not tell her who it was. Mia is out for blood and if she finds out it is Kel, she will be furious. Also, she is now going to be almost smothering in her attention to Cy. She will not let him out of her sight now. She will not let him go anywhere without her.
And he made it seem as if it was his fault, so it may soften things up if the blame is shared. But Mia will not be very happy about it.
Welcome to the next installment of "As the World of Warcraft Turns"
We were thinking too this would be an excellent time to get the group to Blades Edge and get the Hatred rune. ANd I am not waiting any longer for Angel and Mal. They should have checked in by now. Vira is going after the rune.

Excitment! Tislina will most likely just do her usual thing, try to find out whats happened and try to comfort everyone. I am really quite excited for this installment.
Neutral for the win!

Cyaer? Where are you? We need to do some stuff and I am online early today waiting for you.
And I want to ask... Tis, where are you? I wont be able to be on for long tonight, and I'll be gone for a while after. I dont want to try and come up with an excuse for disappearing for a few days and not showing up for our plans for tonight.
So please try and get on?
So please try and get on?
Sure thing. I'll be on at 3 server time.
Since this an OOC thread, I need to get something off my mind also.
I really enjoy the role-playing aspect of the game like this than I have ever loved the game before. And I explored some options that I never would have in real life.
I could never cheat on my wife. Her ex-husband did that, and it hurt her so badly. I happened along as a friend, and our relationship flourished for many years before I asked her to marry me.
But here, Cyaer did something I myself could or would never do. I played both sides of two women in the game. And I discovered something too. I was right in the way I hold myself in real life. I felt the pain of seeing Mia learn of Cyaer's infidelity. And I read with trepidation the outcome of what happened or nearly happend to Kel'Tira.
Your right, it's only a game. It just pixels on the screen, and when I shut off this computer, I can go upstairs, kiss my wife , and go to bed. And forget about it.
I like to think I'm above all this stuff, and it's just a game. But it isn't. I, me, have come to enjoy the time I spend here on Azeroth. I spend time with other players, enjoying their games and interactions, and interacting with them. And in some small way, I changed the dynamic of my little corner of Azeroth with my actions. Will I ever be able to enjoy an afternoon with my friend Kel under a tree discussing life? No. Can you honestly say that you look at Cyaer in a different way? I do.
I know I'm going to get some flakk from some of you, saying it's just a game. And it is. I'm looking forward to raiding with you all. I'm in such new territory game-wise, I'm learning new things, and enjoying the sights and sounds of a new part of Azeroth. And finally being almost topped out. I never have had a level 85 before. I know, you all have 6-8 or more various classes and such. So I'm a newb getting here, okay?
It is a game. But it's more than that too. It's a social media place to talk with you as another character. I don't know...I've rambled on enough, I guess. I'm not sure I liked what I did as my character in the game. And yet...the interaction with each of you, has made the game so intricate and rich...I think, I'll let Cyaer get to 85 (90 soon), do his raids, and such, but not live life so intensely from now on. I'll leave the drama for the rest of you for awhile. I think I need a break from that. Not from you, not interacting with you...just staying boring for a while is all. (Will someday ever come?)
Excelsior!

I know it is hard to believe sometimes, but this game is a wonderful way to explore your own inner feelings and get in touch with who you really are. Have I learned a few things while playing? Yes, and not all game mechanics. I learned that friends come in many shapes and sizes. That true friendship is in how we treat each other and continue on even if we make mistakes.
I also learned that age means nothing. That feelings for someone on the screen can be very real. I often find myself wishing I could find this kind of friendship in real life. But what is real life? Is the line being blurred? Has the internet changed the way we all look at each other? Can it be an instrument of social change and improvement? I do not know. I only know that I meet good people everyday in the game. I meet a few jerks too. But I find it delightful I can click "ignore" and never be bothered again by someone. If real life were that easy!!
So count your blessings everyone. The Fellowship lives on and we will continue to grow. As for the conflicts? Well you know we will settle it and move on. The soap opera continues and the upcoming expansion is looking interesting. Where else can you live out your "evil" side and not suffer anything more devastating then deleting a character or transferring it, something I have done a dozen times. I find it wonderfuly cathartic to do that. Come up with something evil and get it out into the game and then let it be destroyed...something wonderful about that. Good triumphs! Evil is destroyed!
Hey we are still looking for more people to join us!! Come and join the rp and don't worry about the challenge. If you want to do it fine. But we do have fun and it is a game to have fun more than anything else!

It is just a game. I have been a roleplayer for many, many years and have played many, many roles. From a young, impetuous wizard who had so sheltered that she could not see the world for what it really was to aged male Chinese physician (eastern philosophy, of course) and a sociopathic cat burglar with no moral compass and no empathy.
My favorite character was a Ljosalfar who was foreign in her thoughts and motivations that she was a real challenge for me to play (then add in all the stuff from the GMs) that I spent hours between games trying to rattle around inside her head as to be able play her in a plausible way.
Roleplaying gives you the opportunity explore your thoughts and feelings about different subject matters in an environment that does not impact your real life relationships (or rather, it should not if all players involved are mature). You walk in, play a part for a few hours and walk away, leaving the thoughts, feelings and motivations of your character behind for another day.

Drama is overrated.
But I agree with what you all have said. There -is- a point in time where you have to step back from your character as a person and say, "This is my character, this is not me."
As far as the way characters -are- goes, it's really, really difficult to -not- have a character that reflects you. Kel is me in so many ways, and at the same time, most definitely not me.
Would I do the things she's done recently? No. Do I, as a person, with my morals and ideals like what she's done? Not particularly.
I think I have some more to say, but I don't have time right now. I'll finish later between classes.

My thanks everyone. I know I stumbled around trying to say what I meant, but I see you could figure out what I was saying.
Have a good week, enjoy school (yes, really! Enjoy it while you can.) and see you all in Azeroth.
Excelsior!

I'm lacking thought processes, sorry! I'm running on less than 10hrs of sleep in two days, and all I have is this.
Cy, this is as applicable to Cy as it is to Kel.
Hell, maybe more so...

I like this one, just keep it in mind, these are just actors!! Do not get so caught up in the rp you lose sight of who you are.
