quote:There is one reason, but only for the Blades'. Not all scenarios (more likely only a few) BoE scenarios will be ported to BoA. (and probably no originally BoA will be converted to BoE) So you have to buy both if you want to play the scenarios for both. -------------------- "Even the worst Terror from Hell can be transformed to a testimony from Heaven!" - Rev.

But see, the value for BoE goes up every time a new scenario is made at the same time that it's value goes down for getting old/outdated. He probably would sell more if he lowered the price, but what'cha gonna do? I doubt Jeff will budge. -------------------- "Even the worst Terror from Hell can be transformed to a testimony from Heaven!" - Rev.

Ashen seperated from his tree and looked about him. Spotting Juniper sitting in her own, he slipped silently onto the bough next to her. Juniper's eyes were fixed on two humans not far away. Not to alert the humans, Ashen spoke to Juniper in their own language with his tree. "Stuck with observer duty again?" She turned to look at him breifly. "Yea, this is a popular spot, you know. Only half a mile from Wainscotting and deep enough not to be seen from the outside. Doesn't help that the ground is covered in soft moss. One pair tells another pair... You know how it goes." "Yeah," he answered back, "I've been stuck with it often enough to know." Ashen paused to watch the two humans with Juniper for a few minutes. Such curious creatures these were. Juniper creaked her boughs again. "It seems so silly. This couple has been here at least five times already... and they've never finished a procreation attempt! Why even come all the way out here if you're not gonna finish what you start?" Ashen gave her a crooked smile. She had voiced this perplexion before. Ashen had given it much thought and gave her what he had come up with. "Perhaps..." he started, "perhaps they find it... pleasurable. They do look like they are enjoying themselves, don't they?" "Yes, they always do." Juniper was still perplexed. "But what possible pleasure could be found in touching one's lips together for two hours straight?!? I, for one, find it extremely boring. "I duno..." Ashen sat silent for a minute. Then a rustle of leaves and a creak of boughs. Juniper turned to him, eyes wide. All other trees became eerily silent. Even the birds stopped chirping and looked curiously in their direction. Ashen looked down, cheeks much greener then usual. He glanced at her out of the corner of his eye in time to see a mischevious smirk light her face. She looked this way and that as if taking in how many others were watching and waiting. "Sure," she whispered in human speech, "I'll try." And so the observers stopped observing and became the observed. _________________________________________ Lady Amethyst perked up her ears. She didn't usually pay attention to the passing news and gossip, but this... this was highly unusual. She had expected it eventually but in her scope of time this was very soon. "Leanar," she called. "Yes, my Lady?" he asked as he ambled up to her. "I have decided that Juniper and Ashen should be the scouts to Bigail. They seem to have too much time on their hands. "Yes, my Lady." and Leanar starting heading south to deliver the news. -------------------- "Even the worst Terror from Hell can be transformed to a testimony from Heaven!" - Rev.

I think I have only used it once... maybe twice. But I now see the utter folly in it as I shake my head at each new violator. Besides, in staying true to my own sig, I will do good to Alo by not stealing what is his and giving back three-fold what I have already taken. Never steal Alo's sig! Never steal Alo's sig! Never steal Alo's sig! Never steal Alo's sig! NEVER STEAL ALO'S SIG! NEVER STEAL ALO'S SIG! My offerings seem weak and inadequate. I owe you six, Alo... though I'm not sure six what? -------------------- "Even the worst Terror from Hell can be transformed to a testimony from Heaven!" - Rev.

Once I took a long, long time to think up a really 'cool' insult that was more like five insults rolled up into one. But I've never used it, and glad for it, since in hindsight, it wasn't really as cool as I thought it was. -------------------- "Even the worst Terror from Hell can be transformed to a testimony from Heaven!" - Rev.

The Lady glided with regal grace. Her soft features would cause a man to guess her age to be less than thirty but her piercing green eyes held the knowledge of close to a century. She was one of - if not the - eldest of the forest on Wainscotting Penninsula and the only grown of the seed of the former queen (though many here were of her own seed). Her sheer gown flowed about her on the wind as her long earthy hair did the same. She exemplified the beauty of nature at it's best. The wound from her recent attack looked awkwardly out of place on her form. Smeared with healing salve, it would mend quickly. Perhaps before the day was yet done. She bore but a single adornment; a simple golden ring set with a delicately cut stone of amethyst. A gift of her namesake from long ago, it is the only possesion she clings to. Her feet bare, they make no noise as she walks among the ranks of the 'awakened'. Leanar walked with the Lady fussing over her much more than necessary. "I'm so sorry, my Lady! We never thought that one of our own would turn to attack you. She never would have gotten close to you had she shown any sign of hostility..." Amethyst raised her hand to silence Leanar. She suddenly missed the olden days when the only sounds around her were the chirping of birds and the rustling of leaves on the wind. Yes, she much preferred her own language to that of the human speech. As they walked past the ranks, the Lady watched as they drew arrows, aimed, and fired at targets on the ground. Most would miss and try again, some would make their mark and smile as they choose another arrow. Every once in a while an errant arrow would strike one of the many trees and a near-by nymph would let out a startled cry. Appologies would be made as salve was applied and another arrow drawn. Following Amethyst's gaze Leanar began to comment. "Is all this really necessary, my Lady? It is very hard to train in combat when we are all hedged in by one another. We barely have room to stretch our arms, and..." he continued becoming indignant, "... my tree has been shot with an arrow twice today, and four times yesterday! Sure it's practically less than a scratch, but it still hurts." Amethyst shot Leanar a look that stopped his complaints short. He cleared his throat and looked away. The Lady softened after a moment. This was all fairly new to everyone, some complaints were to be expected. "Tell me Leanar, how goes the preperations?" Distracted from his thoughts by his duties Leanar looked at the markings on a sheet of bark he held. "We currently have 200 younger nymphs gathering sticks for arrows and bows. 200 more still gather useful plants throughout the whole penninsula. The 2000 eldest of the awakened practice the arts while the rest who can fight practice hand-to-hand combat as we do here." "And the elders?" she interrupted, "have they made any progress in remembering the ancient powers?" She unconsciously fiddled with the ring she wore as she looked anxiously to Leanar for his answer. He hessitated. "Some, my Lady. Or so they say, but they have yet to report on anything specific." Amethysts' countenance dropped but only for a moment. The whole cannot be gained overnight, after all. "No matter, no matter." She waved off her concern. "Now back to the matter at hand. Get word to the ranks. Those who are consistantly hitting their targets are to be promoted to trainers. And the southern awakened are to choose two scouts to get information from Bigail. I want to know what's going on down there and if there's anything we can do about it. I believe that is Lady Opal's region to rule. See if they can find her." She looked to the south longingly as if to send comfort through her spirit. What could she do? ____ OOC: Now, if you'd have let me have my confederacy... Opal could fight you directly while Sapphire battled Shao's troops and Ruby engaged the Death Clan, all while Emerald and Jeffery had a couple of half-breed kids... but noooo...

From my own experience, there are two good ways to deal with any rude comments. A. Ignore - which works best in face to face situations where the person who said it knows that you heard it but knows that you really don't care. B. Reply positively, whether in joke or agreement - if you reply positively it will seem, to the speaker at least, that no harm has been done even though his feelings of jealousy/inadequatecy have still been voiced. Greviances addressed in this way usually dissipate rapidly. It is also good to compliment others. Pointing out their good points makes your good points not a big deal. Replying negatively is deffinately something to avoid. It will only stir the pot. -------------------- "Even the worst Terror from Hell can be transformed to a testimony from Heaven!" - Rev.

OOC: I thought my group might still be too big, but also thought we were still doing the whole Empire. I've scaled it back. Better? The map also helped me since I needed to see where the forests were. ___________________ IC: One after another, the procession of pale-green wood nymphs brought their findings to Lady Amethist. Many looked like mere children but all had a gleam of knowledge and understanding in their eye that belied their years of age. Slowly and steadily the hand woven baskets laid before the lady filled up with herbs, alchemical ingredients, and fruits grown from the bringers very own boughs. 'Good, good,' she praised. 'We must prepare.' She looked about her followers and told them with conviction, 'If we are to survive we must prepare.' The heads of green-tinted hair nodded back in agreement. They knew all too well what destruction the tides of history told them was sure to come. Forests have always given way to man. Sliths and Nephils less so but as time passed and dense forests receeded, the other sapients adapted their ways more and more like the humans. So Nature's Amethist prepared. Today they gathered...

Oh, goodie, goodie! I wish to remain the same faction, but I think I'll make some significant changes first... EDIT: *scratches chin* Still too big? ... *ponders profusely* _____ Faction Name: Nature's Amethist System of Government: Aristocracy Note: Once a Monarchy encompassing the whole of the Empire, the queen has fallen and rule of the wood-nymphs has gone to her first generation of children. Government Legitimacy: High Note: While none question Amethist's right to rule, some of the number choose to remain dorment in their trees and let life happen without intervention. Government Stability: High Location: The forests north of Wainscotting. Sphere of Greatest Influence:They have very little influence anywhere, but the most in the center of the copse. RP note: Finding the specific tree of the daughter is very, very difficult. Please ensure that you go through said difficulty if you intend to find it and don't expect to be able to identify it without being told. It looks like all the other trees. Territory: Confined to forests edge and always receeding but not widely defined. Fiscal System: Barter Fiscal Status: Poor Economic Growth: Slowly growing as contacts are made. Standard of Life: Very-low (but when you're the life essence of a tree you don't need much in the way of possesions.) Imports: N/A No official imports since they don't really need anything but some are willing to trade for metal weapons, gemstones, and magical items. Exports: N/A No official exports but they are willing to trade alchemical ingredients, recipes, and sensitive information. Population: One for every tree on Wainscotting Peninsula. Believed to be between 20,000 and 30,000 Recognized Species: Wood-nymphs Populating Species: Wood-nymphs Only nymphs are counded among the populace but sprites, faires, animals, and a few of other species who choose to live in their woods. Army: Roughly 5,000 Note: Only those who have lived to be over 30 have enough strength to fight, and only those over 60 have any good level of magical training. Comparative Technology Level: Very-low for usage but fairly high for knowledge. Many a secret experiment has been conducted in the depths of the woods. Army Training: Medium-Low (recent years have shown the need for training but finding good trainers has been difficult) Army Discipline: Loyal Note: Strictly voluntary. Those who choose not to be dormant follow orders without question. Diplomatic Status: Before the former queen stirred them, they had mostly just hidden in the past, observing without much contact of the other species. With her fall also went her orders to kill all who made firewood of them. Amethist holds the same sentiment but knows much better their limitations. They hold a generally strained understanding with all other sapients, but very good rapport with sprites, faries, and animals. Traditional Enemies: The Empire and any sapient faction that harvests lumber without thought for the life of the trees. Major Problems: Wood Nymphs cannot wander far from their tree before losing power so expansion of territory is limited to the planting of more trees. Until a Nymph's tree is 30 years old, their powers are usually too weak to do anything other then appear in physical form. After that the next 30 years is spent learning how to use their in-born powers. Hand to hand combat is easier and quicker to learn but very few have enough knowledge to train the rest. The ever expanding population of other species who cut down trees in order to build things or clear land has been cutting their population and continues to do so. Also a few well placed forest fires could literally wipe them all out in a matter of days. Flag Description: A sky blue stripe on top, a dirt brown stripe on the bottom. The middle a sea of green with a lavendar starburst in the center. _____ After enduring great hardships under her mother's order and realizing the bredth of her request, Amethist has decided on a simpler, more peaceful goal. Teach the sapients that trees hold life and teach the nymphs to defend that life.

I fiddled a bit with things that I was on the fence about or could easily change. 87 at worst, 94 at best. Though I think that the question about a person's family health was incomplete and not very representative. What if a person's parents has health problems that aren't cardiovascular? And shouldn't 2 or more family members with cardiovascular problems affect more then 2 years? -------------------- "Even the worst Terror from Hell can be transformed to a testimony from Heaven!" - Rev.

quote:This massive scale, just how big is it exactly? How many peoples lives will be threatened each year because of the lessened restrictions? How many will die? When should we expect these deaths to start? How many industries are actually changing their mercury and lead usage because of the lessened restrictions? What studies are you basing your 'massive' claims on? I admit that these lessened restrictions do have the chance to harm some, but I cannot see a 'massive' lethal threat in it. Bush can't be re-elected again. I would suggest to you, and the democratic party in general, that instead of wasting all your time bashing Bush and whining about how his terrible policies are going to kill us all, you should be looking for a better candidate for the next election. Soft-spoken, resolute, and more interested in the issues then back-biteing. The only reason the Democrats didn't win the election is because Kerry was a bad candidate. America was ready for a different president but there were enough people who saw Kerry's waffeling as a terrible weakness that they just couldn't get behind him. -------------------- "Even the worst Terror from Hell can be transformed to a testimony from Heaven!" - Rev.
