View Full Version : A Haidian Pilgrimage (looking for one partner)

I am looking for one person to share a story with. The only prerequisites are as follows: you must be able to post once a week, willing to receive and provide constructive criticism, and brave enough to work outside your comfort zone if necessary, as I intend to stretch mine (flexible though it is). Also, your character must live somewhere other than Corone or Haidia.

The premise is this: My character has lived almost her entire life beneath the ground, traversing the varying levels of Haidia and venturing to the surface only a handful of times, and only into the forest Concordia. The first part of the quest will follow her on a pilgrimage through the underworld, to eventually emerge on (continent to be determined). There omens and heritage will draw her to your character. She will attempt to form a bond and turn them to her side. So, as an afterthought my last condition is your character must not be a vampire or immune to vampirism in some way. As fair warning, I'm envisioning 50-75% of this story as parallel solos, though I am most open to suggestions. Happy writing!

I'm currently writing up a human(ish) character and am passively interested in this. Once he's done I'll link you to the profile and you can tell me what you think.

I would like to nominate my Iila Cenata for going with Ellenora. She's a hedge witch of sorts who is having her first outings into the world after living for quite some time in the Red Forest. She actually has a natural affinity for vampiric arts, in a sense. Certainly not a vampire, at least.

Almost everything is outside of her comfort zone, but mine are a bit more expansive than hers.

You both seem... tasty. I'll wait until Mistletien gets a profile up before deciding. Still open to more applicants! I will also take a look at some previous writing from both of you... if you have any finished threads on other accounts, feel free to PM me the links or post them here if you're comfortable with that.

Here (http://www.althanas.com/world/showthread.php?22990-Then-Begins-The-Path-Supreme-(Closed)) is some past work of mine; in this battle, I am "Margaret".

Sorry, I don't have any finished threads. I just joined two months ago. On the other hand, I do have a number of ongoing threads, if you'd like to see threads with Iila, Itera, Idièth, or Ihirmirsyn in them, I could stick the links here.

Apologies that this is taking so long; I am on vacation on the west coast and its activities have unfortunately limited my status online to brief interludes at times. As it is, I am still working on that profile. Hopefully it should be finished shortly.

I like the looks of both of your writing, but Mistletien's character seems exceedingly well suited to the overall concept of the quest. Congratulations Mistletien! Expect a PM from me sometime in the next few days... or, if you have some ideas you'd like to share, shoot them my way and I'll get back to you shortly. Thanks both for your interest!

That wasn't intentional, I assure you, but I appreciate the choice nonetheless.
