A Rebel's Work is Never Done

Moonlight glistens off the calm waters of Runaway bay as the hull of the corsair cuts across the small rise of waves. The moonlight beams down through a lightly clouded sky lending a magical feel to the small village built up by the beach. The tall, tattooed, dark haired woman at the wheel gives the command and all hands worked to furl the sails and drop the anchor. At last she was home. Anna-Maria dismisses the crew and sets off in a row boat for shore. The mountains rise high on the horizon an… Continue

Too many English

We had some business to do with English. I don’t like to do business with English. Anyway, sometimes, you have to go over your own feeling and do it. So we went to that city full of English willing to investigate some trade possibilities. That was a bad idea. Bad idea to bring the crew of the Red Fire, b… Continue

What are the odds?

Today when doing some admin work for His Grace, I meet a lovely lady. I helped her complete her LL ticket to transfer a sim and while we were talking it transpired that her sim was in the shape of Australia. I asked, could I come see a depiction of my native land. She tp'd me there and I spent some time just wondering, feeling a little like I had gone 'home'. She realised fairly quickly that I was a fellow Australian and we started chatting about all things Aussie eventually getting around to t… Continue

Taverners and Hostelers of Antiquity

In my networking with Antiquarians I ran across a "Tavern Owners of Antiquity" group, but soon found that it was totally inactive and the owner was no longer maintaining it. I do believe there is value in having a group like this if all the taverners and hostelers of Antiquity would be willing to be active in it. If you are an inn keeper or a tavern keeper, are you willing to join such a group? Continue

Example of Roleplay - Blast from the Past

I recently, and quite happily, discovered that there are some roleplay logs from a roleplay game I played for approximately 8 years. I have posted the link below to show some of our work. This is the style of roleplay that I am USED to and absolutely adore. In this log you will see example of roleplay leading to conflict, resolved by ROLEPLAYED combat and the use of a very rudimentary dice system to determine success or failure of a typed action. Setup: I play a character in the log named Nazee… Continue

It's Finished! Oh, God, It's Finished!

The wedding album of all wedding albums is finished! 365 photographs taken. 53 selected for the album. And it's finally done. A couple weeks ago I was at the Born Museum and Fine Art and someone there asked me if I had attended "the wedding of the millennium." I don't think I will ever take on a wedding this big again. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
