I'm finally able to catch up on all the writing you guys have been up to lately, so buckle up!

First of all, I want to shout out An Inquiry from the RavenBlack Historical Society as a thread with so much good character insight and development. I'm already getting my thoughts together for my many characters and their points of view. I've loved every single contribution thus far and can't wait to read more! Thank you, characters (and writers), for feeling comfortable enough to share so much! I hope the contributions of my characters can manage to match the quality of character insight already happening.


What Is Yours Is Not Yours
"When you remember a memory, you're not really remembering it. You're remembering the last time you remembered it. The last time you thought of Tifereth in this room, you must have imagined the look in her eyes. She gave herself to her lineage. She was devoted to her lineage. She was devoted to her purpose, and you begin to understand, Yawa, now that you feel your throat burning with the shame on your tongue, what is yours is not yours."
Uncontrollable goosebumps, Nikki. The characterization of YAWA gets better and better with each word you put to paper. Thank you for sharing this! I'm on the edge of my seat to see what's next.

Harpyhare (Paladin Encounter)
"[...] just because it’s made of steel and concrete, it doesn’t make it any less violent than the world surrounded by bark and rock."
I wish I wrote as beautifully as this.
I love the lore you've crafted for Paladins, and I will be using some of that for the Paladin character I'm working on.

First of all, the title of this thread, Post Cards I'll Never Send (Closed) , is so great. I love the character journals and insights.

The Guest House
"You have mastered the art of feeling alone in a roomful of people. If the void in your soul could’ve been solved through getting laid alone, this wouldn’t be a problem. You have access to all the prettiest ballerina boys and you have bimonthly appointments with a few of them cause a girl has got needs and has to feed. What you have is a connection problem."
honey, baby, darling, I LOVE HER.
liz, you always know how to set up a scene. I still think about the thread you wrote for Mel where she confronts the gods.

viewtopic.php?f=17&p=61535#p61535 - Re: Entropy. (Path/Church of Rot)

LOVE this. Love to see Zero explore what his new path means to him. (Also psyched about what I think is a Yawa s/o in that scene, uwu.)

I love that I get to read not only Zero fleshed out (hehe) in this scene but also his plans for his new path. Great read, thank you!

Ahhhhh! Thank you! I don't write a lot nowadays and I appreciate the love given here, motivates me to get more character/individual world building done!

There was indeed a slight nod to Yawa in the post, as they were the one to ask him the question about death. I'm glad you found it!

I was honestly a little worried about including the small bit about his time as a slave, as I understand that is sometimes a touchy subject for some people, but it is an integral part of his story and his experience. Definitely affects how he approaches certain situations.

Thank you so much!
