As Pinman Seems to have been Abucted by TEH ALIENZ !!11!! Kol.7 and me have decided to start recruiting for the next one.
should Pinman Reappear, we will be more than happy to give our place back to him.

so, without Further Addo

Night of the Werewolves: The Tears of Danalin
It is said that in the last days of the Aifons, the Mage Trenton Majosi crafted a Ritual. A ritual so powerful, it would shatter the compact, allowing Danalin, father of the Aifons to enter creation to save the Aifons.

But Trenton knew that doing so would allow other gods, more dangerous gods, into creation, setting a new spark to the eternal conflict that was the godswar. A conflict that would spread to creation and destroy all the humanity had built since the compact had been signed.

And so, Trenton refused to save his people at the price of humanity.
As the cries of the last Aifons were snuffed out, Danalin despaired, and turned from creation, preferring an endless sleep to the misery of reality.
Legend says, though, that Danalin cried as he slept, that these tears fell from his face, and slipped through the cracks between Danalin’s realm and creation.

As Danalin slept, and Passionate Bhall fell dragging her people into hell with her, a people far in the north of Erebus discovered the Ritual Trenton had refused to use. These were a cold and harsh people, and they called forth their god.

Centuries passed in Mulcarn’s Frozen clutches, and the proud Patrian people collapsed into small bickering tribes…

Tribes, that after Mulcarn’s Defeat at the hands of Kylorin, would grow again, separate, but powerful.

And so, many years after Danalin turned away from creation, the land rose up over the lost city of the Aifons, and, growing from the inherent holiness of the place, on the island grew a plant. A plant so holy, only it could be used to call to the gods.

And so, when this island was discovered in the Aegean, it is perfectly natural that it be settled, first by a pirate people, rude and flamboyant, who’s purpose in life was to drink, smuggle, steal, and make money…

To the Bannor, this abomination could not continue. The plants needed good masters, holy ones, masters able to properly care for them. And so the Bannor War machine set forth, and took what they saw as rightfully theirs.

An uneasy peace settled over the island and the city of Portston, the Bannor doing what they do best, and the Lanun, quietly and secretly, also doing what they do best.

Until the death of Captain Creaver, the old retired Lanun sea pirate…

Sign ups are open now although more information will be added shortly. We are aiming for around 30 players, perhaps more, and this NOTW will be notably differant to most others.

We are aiming for around 30 players, perhaps more, ...
:huh: 30 players, at this point? Not even Pinman got 30 signups, at a time when interest was at an absolute max. Forgive me for being pessimistic, but I really think you should plan for the eventuality of only getting 20 signups...

Ekolite
Aug 20, 2008, 06:34 AM
Yep, we are hoping to fill the rest by gettoing new players from the FFH forum. I understand NOTW isn't as popular as it used to be, so hopefully this will attract new players. Atm we have 23 characters, but I think the game will need a few more for smooth running.

I'll play if it starts after the weekend. Much as Pinman's disappearance sucks, what a way to go! Have one of the best NOTW ever, and then vanish...

Hi everyone, sorry but I'm afraid we have to cancel this game as I wont have time to take on a second forum game because I'm starting college in September. Appologies to everyone who's signed up already. Either myself or both me and thomas will still be running this game at a more convieniant time for both of us, but I can't promise it will be any time soon. Thomas will, however be running a different NOTW in place of this one now. The sign-up thread should be up sometime soon.

Oh man, what a bummer... :sad:

And Thomas, why don't you keep the same roster ? I suppose people wanting to play this will enjoy playing yours too.

Right ?

Aug 28, 2008, 02:01 PM

and mine should be a nice easy way toget introduced to the game

Yeah, don't bother with a sign-up thread, just post the game thread.

Edit: well, that'll teach me not to refresh the forum before I comment. :p
