____________________________________________________________________


Annon thanked Emmeline for escorting him to an infirmary cot, by
planting a playful kiss on his fair cousin's cheek. "Thanks Coz! But
I could think of several better places in the castle, were you could
see to my well being in a more private setting." He teased her, but
winced a bit from pain, as he be bent to sit down on the cot.

Annon fumbled around a bit in his shirt till he brought out a silver
flask and raised it to his lips.  Though his red headed Aunt
snatched his flask from him in mid gulp. She firmly pushed him flat
down onto the cot, and splashed some of the contents of the flask,
onto a large open wound on his leg.

"Ouch!" He cried out more in surprize then pain.

"That's a much better use for this scotch just now, young man."
Fiona said matter of factly as she examined his wounds, by poking
and proding them with several sharp metal instraments.

"Seems that Someone in the Courts sent you an invitation, that was
not well received, I see. Fortunately the poison was meant to
immoblize and not kill you."

"Gee I'll have to thank that Someone, next time I'm there." Annon
quiped.

"That's not really a bad idea at all. I'll have to recommend that to
Eric. We could use a bit of new info from the Courts. It would help
me on my research into this odd activity with the pulse."

Annon gave is Aunt a look of sudden disblief, before rolling his
eyes, and putting his head back onto the cot.

I am here and I know Julene is about, and I talked to
Mike and Jenny the other day.  Also I think Joyce and
Beth proposed an intrest.
We just need a jump start.

Annon's Keeper

Why don't we just NPC the elders ourselves as we find the need to?
Seems like Mike and Jenny don't have the time needed to devote to
running them full time. I suggest just picking up the individual
threads where they left off and start creating our own storylines.
Everyone here seems a capable enough writer to pull that off.

I agree, but I need to, I guess get away from Deirdre
unless Michael will pick up the task of NPCing her ^_^

A Happy New Year to you too. May I suggest we see who survived the merriment of the holidays?

Hello Cousins,

Well it's a whole new year here on shadow earth !!!
I look forward to getting things started in the new format
laid out before us.  So with that said, let's do some discussions
on how to get things started.

It would certainly be a welcome opportunity for me to get some fun
back into my life. I know I've been absent...the last couple of years
haven't really been helpful when it comes to playing a happy-go-lucky
character.
I'd like to join in again...that is, if everyone else is okay with
that?

P.S. Mike, if you're going to change your e-mails, it's a good idea
to tell people. I've tried three times to mail you, had no
bounces...just let me know. Ok?

Hey I'm sticking around until the network pulls the plug. Besides there is the matter of on my $7,000.00 per eposide that the pecock needs to settle.

Thanks for the blessing Beth, I'm glad I'm making Mama proud.

I'm also still around and happy to give it a go.

discuss how to apply this, and if you want to keep

at that time.

I would like to see how many other players are still
about too.
I am more then willing to continue as Veronica.
I have some other things to discuss as well with you

This is not the first time that I've written one of these posts, and
knowing me, it won't be the last. A mixture of work and other
distractions, some of which I cannot excuse myself for, have kept me
from doing my job as the Moderator/GM of this group, and for that I am
truly sorry. Because of this, and after reading an OOC post from
Harrick's player, I've decided to ask you, the players, where you want
to go from here.

I've talked with a couple of the players, and an idea has been that
SOD becomes more of a freeform game. Players themselves control things
like subplot and personal situations, especially within Shadow, and
one or more of us could figure out plot ideas and apply them to other
players (with their permission, obviously). This method is sometimes
also known as 'cooperative writing', and while it would still be
roleplaying in one sense, it would also have more in keeping with
storytelling as well.

I personally am in favor of this, and would like to hear your views on
it in a reply to this post.

If we get some kind of agreement together, we can discuss how to apply
this, and if you want to keep your characters, still use the Amber
DRPG system, etc. at that time.

Again, sorry for not being here... I'm hoping that perhaps with
players being given much more control of their own subplots and
general lives will give us all the chance to continue to play in the
Amber setting with one another.

Emmeline lent her strength for Annon to lean upon as well and nodded
to Annon's request.

"Certainly, Cousin. Any intruders shall be harshly dealt with," Emmi
said, reassuringly. "But for now, let us away to the infirmary.
There's no need for servants. I'll bear him to care myself."

Annon accepted Patrick's assistance and offered no protest as he was
led away toward the castle. "Thank you Patrick for your help and
advice. Could you also send for others to the search the grounds and
stables for any other interlopers from the courts?"
