I do feel kinda bad for whoever the roleplayer was that owned that character...


I'm pretty sure it was Sir Real. In fact, I believe he wanted to make a follow-up thread of his own set in that world, which then sparked a civil war. The Angel-backed Sir Realian rebels vs the staunch Er Rillian loyalists. The fighting went on for ages (a couple of days), and was bloody and vicious (casualties included 'Real Sir', a character Er Rill created just to mock Sir Real), but eventually a peace treaty was signed dictating that the world was for everyone, so long as you don't interfere with other people's continents or already-existing geography.


Ah yes, Sir Real! There was something about him that I found quite vexing, I must admit. But he was a good roleplay ing er, I particularly enjoyed his character Titan in TFQ, which was a fairy in a humanoid dragon suit. He disappeared just as he was about to accomplish the most critical part of his quest...

And you needn't remind me of the RPD wars that were caused due to my negligence and Sir Real's wroth. We've still got the tenants of non-interference enshrined on our private forums. Geez...

Leaving it vague works fine for me now, anyway. People introduce their characters into Engelain, but I don't think they necessarily want their back-stories to have taken place in Engelain, but in its own world independent of my control. There's a lot of blank spaces on the Engelite map for if people want to introduce things, but I get why people wouldn't.

As it stands now, Engelain's eastern point is the elven forest, which is Kal'sea's western point, and Kal'sea's southern deserts leads onto the jungles of The Southlands (Diesel Elysia.) But even that is up in the air, given that Er Ril doesn't post here anymore.

Er Rill's trolling was pretty awesome though.

Guthix's Character: I'm your new navigator!
John Black: No, you're the new cabin boy.
Guthix's Character: No, I'm your new navigator.
John Black: No, you're the new cabin boy. ( Raises pistol. )
Guthix's Character: No, I'm your new-
BOOM!

Yes, that one was The Black Heart, right? Upon the River Styx to find a new heart for John Black's new blood. He joined the Dread Lord's side in TFQ and was imbued with power, and then had Sephys Suran replace his heart with a demon's heart, so I suppose it makes sense that John Black is near superhuman in terms of his battling.

Oh, and I was totally going to have Sephys Suran amputate Guthix's foot and replace it, and then keep the original foot bottled up for future use...


I like that in the 'shared fantasy world' of mine, Er Ril and Laser's, we've managed to form a butchered form of the world. Engelain is western Europe, which is attached to Scandinavia by a land-bridge, and Scandinavia leads directly onto the north pole, there's no ocean there, just endless polar wastes. Then at the bottom of Scandinavia you have desert-lands that leads you to the two subcontinents that form The Southlands, which is Africa. The thread Diesel Elysia, if I'm understanding the drawn map correctly, takes place where the southern-most tip of the Southlands touches the southern-most tip of an as-of-yet uncreated South America.

East of Kal'dara you have a jungle land and after that you have Own Amnesty's Arab-inspired island chain. I'm always a big fan of integrating other people's work into the overall work, which is why I've got it so that some of Siera's and Ubaid's back-story influences how the universe works/its history. I also included the magenta pixie after Venom suggested it in Zed's début post, and the county we destroyed at the start of ITF, Oakfoot, is also one of the names Venom made offhandedly in TCG.

Also, for memory's sake:

Original message details are unavailable.
You cannot interfere with anybody's private story universe and region, including the seas and islands or whatever they may imagine around it, but it's fine for you to create places beyond that so long as:

- You tell us (and remember that me or Angel can't give permission for you to do stuff related to Kal'sea and vice versa as it doesn't belong to us);
- You do not change facts about anybody else's creations, including geography;
- And thus you do not define geography too much yourself, either. You do not measure out how big your continent may be in comparison to those of others. But you can very reasonably say "it's massive" and include UNLIMITED regions and areas and so on if you wish. The point is, there is no scale which BY DEFINITION changes the size of the regions of others, and thus there is also the subjective illusion of spaces and journeys within writing: it took us a few posts to get to Messia in TFQ but it could actually be treks away.

So, Sir Duncan: Xiang came from the Distant East beyond the lands of Kal'sea and more. You could make a thread about it and join in on our universes, via characters, references to events and places, and journeys and camaraderie together; let us know. That would be cool. But Sir Real cannot add a mountain range further north of those of Er Ril when Er Ril knows that his universe ends with the White Fang Mountains of the barbarians and then, after that, inhospitable polar wastes.

Also in that same thread he trolled the hell out of Guthix's other character. Kept trying to do things peacefully but every single option resulted in mass genocide. To the point where a bunch of priestesses actually came out and begged him to show mercy, only for him to sort of snap after that. Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.

And then Black shot Kuro's eye out in TCG.

I don't recall that being a thing. I think he was just attacking on the road during some adventure he cooked up to justify Kuro's absence.

He did take a shot at Kuro, but I think that was when Guthix vanished for a while and so it never actually resolved.
Done in by the dubious doings of destiny.
