    Close! My undergraduate degree is Architecture, and grad schooling in Urban Planning and Design (I left school to join my wife in Alaska). To be called an Architect would require 3 years of apprenticeship, and another 3 passing licensing exams.

    I just sketched it up my take on the airship to quickly try and visualize the layout. Much easier to point at something than try and describe it with utmost clarity - leaving something open for misinterpretation and contraditions (even if it's just to prevent myself from writing into a corner!).

    If you guys have visualized the Requiem as something completely different than what I've sketched up, lets make some definitive decisions - I'll make necessary edits in my posts. I just want to make sure there's continuity for the story/setting, as well as not start elbowing my way in with design decisions.

    Secretly I love the idea of a ballooned dirigible. There are opportunities for interaction within the envelope, as well as crew responsibilities with managing the air-bladders within. This decision also wouldn't relegate all airships to such a design. I've already hinted at smaller, faster personal craft.

    That's the plan Arch, letting Geco decide. I'm not trying to be a dick. It just comes naturally. But like i said, I just never really got the dirigible thing. A certain amount of it is bound to be 'magical' in nature anyway, but its so "Bleh".

    Zed, i'll hold off until Geco gives the okay

    Ahoy, Drice.

    I spent years RPing here with a few of the folk still around. After a long absence I'm trying to dive back in myself. Welcome back!

    Welcome Back.

    Don't take this the wrong way Drice, but I'm hesitant to join given the rate at which all of your previous threads have died. If you say at least Christmas, I'll hold you to that and read up tomorrow.

    Are we just supposed to post? No char sheets or anything.

    Lol its true, though life has been very eratic over the past two years and my internet access has been just as bad. But now I have my own place again, with my own computer and own internet access so I will be around, and truth be told I have every intention of staying even longer. The last thread died because it just wasn't really coming out the way I wanted it (and real life took its toll on me).

    The new thread is an homage to the first thread I ever created on these boards and regardless of involvement I will finish this one cause I would like to see just how the story of Drice will finish. There are no character sheets because I don't believe in them simply starting posting away. The world is yours to create as you see fit with a few loose guidelines which I can help with if you ask. The story takes place twenty years after the Shadow Wars, a group five year span of battles that turned 3 seperate kingdoms into the one that it is now. The elves live in the northern part of Arantol, Humans mainly live in Denia (dense woodlands) and Revel (farm land/plains). 16 years ago the great hero Drice Malehn vanished from the world and no one knows just what happened to him. The kingdom celebrates the anniversary in the Captial city of Denia where all the characters will begin...

    New topic of conversation:
    What do you all listen to as you write (if anything)? Anything with lyrics can serve as inspiration or set a mood ahead of time, but I stick with instrumental (or silence) otherwise. Explosions in the Sky, The Album Leaf, and God is an Astronaut usually suffice.

    I usually am watching TV, or a movie, or streaming an episode of something off the internet. When I listen to music I want to sing, and that makes it impossible to write ^_^

    I HAVE to have silence. I am too easily distracted and if music is playing, I will sing along and not concentrate on my writing. If the TV is on, I'll end up watching shows and get no writing done.

    And with that, TV off, and to the STC thread I go... ;)
