Oh, I see. You must have missed it.
There is a new section in Domhantir, called the Round Table. Members who have a certain number of points are able to create collaborative story lines. The current point requirement to make one is 500 or 600 right now. So basically, anyone who has enough expiriance, can create a submission thread about a collaborative story. Once it is approved, that member becomes a Collab. moderator, and can create new threads within a general thread for their specific Collab. Then, once they add some more detail, or not, they post the beginning of the story. There are a few general rules that can be found in the Round Table board, as well as one's that the moderater can inforce, for instance, a minimum of 300 words per post. Then, it is turned loose to the general public, even to fleglings!! It is collaborative because the participants can do whatever they want to with the characters and environment, and they have no limits, aka, no bunnying exists, as long as it follows the general storyline.
I think that about sums it up. Any questions? Feel free to ask!! Kryos

I see! So essentially the person who starts it makes up a new character and a bunch of people take the character in a situation and write about him/her? Is that what I understand?

Correct! Only there can be multiple characters that are created! Go check out the Elder Sea, in the Round Table, and maybe even post!! It can be found here: The Elder Sea BoardHave fun!!

Okay, we've decided on a two on two battle, right? And the winning two then turn on each other and duel, right? Or is it simply that the last two remaining (even if from opposing teams), fight? I think the second way is better... but anyways, I'm pretty sure I can post my character entering the Talmas today if not right now, when I get home. edit: Posted! Oh, and is there going to be a rule against backstabbing your teammate? I think there should be, like the magicians/illusionists prevent it or something like that. After all, this is team, right? We decided against each man for himself... unless you want to make that an option. I dunno which is best, I could lean either way (no friendly fire or yes friendly fire). Heheh, that'd be interesting if the magicians made it so that partners on a team can't touch each other, like, for example, if Beolakh was my partner, and I swiped at him with my sword, it went right through. That'd be pretty funny What do y'all think?

I believe that we were going to have the two vs two, then the two survivors duke it out later, even if it is on the same team. Also, no friendly fire, just enemies. This fight is to see who is the best fighter, and that can't be judged unless we though in the co-op part of it. Thanks for posting, now I'll go bug Beo about it. He's next.

How is this all going to work? Are we going to have to choose the winners before hand? Are we just going to fight hardcore and decide based on who gets the most injuries who dies? I've been out of it for to long!
(Sorry).

Umm, for the beginning, it will be obvious that each team is trying to win. But, I have been talking to Beo about some interesting twists, so I'll confirm those ideas, then PM you all, and we'll decide the in-character winner. But remember, this is a battle thread, where our writting is judged separately and the one with the highest score wins. I think that is all. Let's do it!

Another question. The Talmas has different battle locations. What type of environment do we get first with the teams in the Chalrhith forest? How can we start visualizing that? How is the arena going to be set up for the one on one? Have Kyros and Beolakh decided anything about the 'interesting twists'?

Ok,
The locations that we have requested in the thread will be merged into one landscape. Basically a Swampland, forest, and others in one. The arena is magically enhanced, so the playing field will be grand. Remember, it is magical. Describe it how you want. Also, I think I changed Ashlyn's request when we got multiple forest requests, so please note that.

*Shy peak*
Hiah guys. Sorry I've been gone and completely unreachable. I hit a new phase in life - work. Trying to be both a Commander and a full time worker and social all the sudden is killing me. Sorry.
So, its my turn to get Vinquith in the arena, which won't be a problem since its already typed (just on a different, inaccessable computer at the moment), and then Vinquith and Ashlyn need to have a brief 'meet/stay out of my way or I'm your enemy too' talk. After that, war!
(If I can request anything anymore, please respond to this so I know we still have everyone...)

Ohh, yeah!! We are back in business, hopefully!! We all should still be around. Tydus gets back in a few days and we'll have everyone. Just make sure to have your choice of location picked so we know what environment we'll be in. Also, I edited my choice!

Sweet. Tonight I'm planning on doing a bunch of computer story swaps between computers (only one has internet). I should have my post up by the end of this week!
Are we going to pre-determine who's going to win or how this is going to go? Or are we just going to start writing and see what hapens?

Umm, I'm not sure. Either way, let's not discuss the contents of the fighting here, and leave it to PM's. We had a cool idea. Can't wait for your post!

First part is up. I'm still writing the next part, but here is the start. (Sorry, I discovered that when my computer crashed, it took the part I had of Vinquith with it. So I'm starting from scratch, again.)
