Well, that was fast! I posted my character and in ... just a few minutes? ... I have been approved! Must have been fate or something...

Anyway, just wanted to say hello, and thank Taskmienster.

Oh, and... What now? lol

Your welcome. And good to have you on the site. Now.. you feel free to jump into an open rp, gather some people to start one, or just make a new open one yourself.

Best place to start is usually Peaceful Promenade or Scara Brae (which has a mission board you can claim missions that are posted by the government and do as well).

hey Whitlen. Welcome to Althanas. Word of advice as you being a red head - WATCH OUT FOR LETHO! he lusts for redheads.

Whitlen
02-19-09, 09:05 PM
Thanks again!

Ah, the pitfalls of online rp. I have to admit I'm really bad at creating solid plots, unfortunately. And, as usual, I've created a character with no chance at those missions, since she has no combat knowledge whatsoever, lol. I'll figure something out, though. :)

*hints to others reading this thread that she's open for quests*

LOL! Thanks for the welcome *and* the warning, Fran!

Well would you like to quest with me? I'm open for quests, but not till Monday at the earliest.

Whitlen
02-19-09, 09:09 PM
That would be an interesting thread, lol. If you can think of a viable storyline, sure :)

Don't eat the cookies, beware of Letho, and also beware of things that want to eat you in the dark.

Give me the weekend and I shall get back to you. Do you have any messengers? Y!M or AIM?

XD Thanks for all the warnings, I'll do my best!

Weekends I have, messengers I don't. Ever since the great comp crash of '08 I can't load them up without having my comp completely freeze up. :(

There is www.meebo.com dear. you can use messengers there without downloading them.

Welcome to Althanas, Whit. If your character profile is any indication of your writing in general, then you should fit right in here.

Whitlen
02-19-09, 09:27 PM
I feel at home already! Thank you for the high praise, Bloodrose!

I don't think it's just the programs, so I'll have to pass. Consider me terminally without messengers.

edit:
I think for now I'll just leave it as "PM me if you are interested in a thread with Whit", since this is more of an intro thread, and I'd like to get to know some Althanians. Or, you know, if you want to stroke my ego, or whatever. >.>;; Man, I need to rp...

I'll take a look at Scara Brae, but again, I suck at opening posts... Is there a thread # limit here?

I keep hearing that... I guess we'll find out when Letho arrives??

No thread limit, we use liquid time so you can be anywhere at the same time as another thread that is going on.

Hmm, there seems to be an influx of redheads lately... I might have to bust out Elijah and Nadia again just so I can fit in.

Grittings and welcome to Althanas, Whitlen!

*offers a slice of pizza instead of cookies*

-Takes a piece of pizza and a cookie- Thanks BaBE. These cookies and pizza are quite delectable. They are scrumptious. I love the taste.

Dammitall, fey leor, I had that pizza specially poisoned for the new blood, and you had to go and--

Err...






Whoops >.>

Heads up, those are glass shards, not diced onions...

Welcome! I'm sure you'll do well and go far.

So much food, and not enough drinks.

Welcome, hope you stay, yadayadayada.
Can we skip to the part where I eat your face off yet? I'm hungry.

Bleeding Christ! You mention some redheads and strap-ons and suddenly you're the boogeyman. Psh...

Khm... I mean, welcome to Althanas, Whitlen, where people slander and cock block. ;)

Whitlen
02-20-09, 04:52 PM
*carefully avoids food offerings, but takes a cold AMP Lightning* Ah, lemony! (I work for Pepsi, and am ridiculously loyal, so fair warning, lol)

I see some pretty famous people in my thread! Cyrus and Letho! Okay, so maybe "infamous" is more accurate..

Thanks for the welcome and attempted murders, everyone! XD Hopefully I'll be roleplaying with all (or at least most) of you in the (near) future!

AdventWings
02-20-09, 05:16 PM
Yeah, they're ones to watch out for. Unless you like the backroom, but the only people I saw leaving it was Letho...

Welcome! If you're in need of extra starting gear (or just more stuff in general) head on over to the Bazaar! We've got over a million selection of items for you to choose from and unlimited choices of stores! If it's not there, we guarantee your money back.

Ah, yes. Would you please stand up and spread your arms? We would like to take your measurements for your custom-tailored straight jacket. We should have it delivered to your mailing address within two weeks. Service fees: Free of charge. :D

Whitlen
02-20-09, 05:20 PM
No need, I have a broad variety of straight jackets in my closet. Padded rooms too! =D Though if you have one (jacket) in burgundy, that would round out my collection nicely! :D

And don't worry, I've been reading this site for a while now, at least this area of it, so I know how dangerous Letho is... Cyrus just seems fun to poke fun at. ;)

NOOO!!!!!

Well, I admit I had dreams of watching Althanas burn, but that was more of an IC thing, not setting the server itself on fire. :(

Whitlen

Okay, I looked, as promised, and I guess I just don't get it. Do we make up our own story and resolution, based on the plot provided? :confused:

Aiko
02-20-09, 08:44 PM
I have a question Whitlen, based on several tired jokes seen on the internet, and commercials.

Since you work for pepsi, is it true that if they discover you drinking Coca-cola, they'll fire you? That's always bugged me for inane reasons I choose not to share.

Whitlen
02-20-09, 08:49 PM
It's not 100% true, actually, unless you do it while wearing a Pepsi uniform. You are also not supposed to bring Coke products into the building, but that's not really a fire-able offense either, just a dirty-look one. Best way to get around that, though, if you go to a place that only sells Coke products is to buy Dr. Pepper, since that is technically not Coke or Pepsi, but distributed by both.

I find it entertaining to pick on Cyrus, too.

Although it's much easier to do with a microphone. :p

Whitlen
02-21-09, 04:05 PM
Oh, well, in that case... :p

On a side note, on what continent could I find elves and lots of trees? And information for both?

Tainted Bushido
02-21-09, 04:09 PM
Raiarae is your best bet on elves and trees.

Seraphima
02-21-09, 04:09 PM

Ordinarily I'd say Raiaera...but it's kind of...all a-shambles right now.

There is also an isolated population of Elves in Concordia forest in Corone. They're a little rougher around the edges than the Raiaeran Elves...kinda the difference between Wood Elves and High Elves.

Cyrus the virus
02-21-09, 04:10 PM
Haha, silly goose.

Also, Raieara. You should read the continent descriptions to get a sense of the place.

Whitlen
02-21-09, 04:34 PM
I don't mind reading, just wanted a short-cut to the info I wanted ^_^; Also, since it's more a wood elf I'm going for, Raieara might not be the right answer (thanks, Sera)!

And yeah, I am silly, and apparently gullible...

02-21-09, 04:44 PM

Just be careful in Concordia, some of those wood elves worship a dark god, and became spider magi. Check out the cult of the Thayne for more information on that.

Hey, I didn't realize how gullible... Wait a minute! ;)

Actually, I just read about 90% of the Hitchhiker's Guide there, and those elves are WAY too buddy-buddy with other races for what I have in mind... I'll be reading elsewhere to see if I can find something closer. Thanks for the warning, though!

well i dont know much about the continent's but Cyrus could be a great guy, (i should know i RPed with him a few times)

anyway's enjoy your stay here and well ... here enjoy a slice of delicious cake and beer
