Four Winds Crossing

Stocking up for Storm

feeds@yuku.com (Jerihan Ramsay) — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 19:25:33 GMT

A young man in his early thirties stepped out of a bookstore with a couple of ratty books in his hands. Already the sky was smudged with gray clouds moving in a slow lazy fashion. He was warned that a very large storm was going to come through. His home in the trees was in grave danger but he couldn't imagine staying anywhere else. The woods were long dead, or seemed like it, and the trees would be fine. They offered very little resistance against wind due to the lack of leaves.

Everyone knew what day it was in the marketplace today. It was market day, the day when everyone came out of their houses to sell at least something that they had for a good price. It was also the day when the players, dancers, performers, and actors all came to lend a bit of entertainment in hopes of getting a few coins.

Today was Arihana's favorite day of the year. She had put on her best dress, which was really an old blue thing that had a little bit of embroidered silver on...

Captain Bain LeGuile enters FWC...

feeds@yuku.com (LeGuile) — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 22:03:59 GMT

Captain Bain LeGuile stood five foot seven with long black hair and two small horns protruding from his forehead. He was a bona fide pirate of the seas... The pesky terror of Eidolon had escaped and set foot everywhere. Unbenknownst to any, every pair of eyes that laid on him had given him and his crew more staying power.

But there was Bain, picking his teeth with a toothpick while his crew dispersed to see the town in its entirety. Smidgeon, a fat little rotund man, was standing by...

Blizzard Troubles

"I'm getting too old for this," Sajon mused to himself as his boots crunched through the thick snow. The grey dark sky was dropping snow by the tons and it didn't help that strong winds were whipping through the streets and alleyways. He passed a frustrated lamplighter trying to get one of the lamps lit.

"Wizard Sajon!" The lamplighter shouted against the howling winds. When Sajon didn't hear him, he screamed louder. "WIZZZAAARRDDD...

Assassin For Hire (Open!)

feeds@yuku.com (MaGiCTrIo) — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 22:58:01 GMT

The marketplace was bustling with people, sometimes making it hard to see through the thick bunches of faces and bodies. In a corner, where very few people were straying, a tent was set up that was slightly larger than all those that were around it. The light bounced off of it's white canopy, casting shadows on the ground that looked like fragments of stained glass. Outside the tent was a desk, at which a man sat wearing a white cloak with the hood raised to shadow his face. Showcases all...

Dragon Hunts. ((CatClaw))

((OOC: For some reason I just had the idea to use some old characters in a new thread. This is only if you're interested CC but I figured I'd at least go ahead and post it just in case we wanted a backup for later.))

It was early enough in the morning that the sun hadn't even risen yet, and the usual silence that accompanied that time of the morning was welcoming within the dimly lit darkness of the cave. Two dragons slept next to each other, their bodies curled around...

The Aftermath

feeds@yuku.com (Exion Korru) — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 11:36:39 GMT

The town was peaceful this night, he noticed from the branch he stood on. His black trench coat billowing brilliantly behind him as the breeze over ran the depths of the forest this night. His thoughts were wondering away with him. All to the dreadful night, at this town, so many years ago, and the brutally unthinkable deed that he put forth against the townsfolk. He stared, almost in disbelief that he had done it, now thinking back, but he knew other wise. Though it may...

Oh, So Sweet

The notched, blood-stained sword wavered close to the ground. Shadows danced on the street like a troupe of demented puppets. The lamps along the sidewalk flickered, threatening to extinguish. There were few passersby on the street that night. It was perhaps a good thing. Blood would be shed. He'd see to it.

Volstrav Beldoro lost it all. They came to his house over a year ago without warning. His children and brother were killed within minutes, his house burnt down. Somehow he...

"If he doesn't sit down and stop with the pacing I swear I'm going to smack him so hard........" Gwen thought to herself as she sat down on the couch with her eyes closed, but one of her eyes wouldn't stop twitching. She was trying to appear as calm as possible, but it wasn't working very well thanks to a certain vampire who couldn't sit still for more...

It's just another shade of green (open)

The sun was just peeking it's rays over the crossing, the pale light shining down on the earth below, warming it with it's gentle glow. Already, a few people were milling about the crossroads, setting up their merchandise to be sold, browsing the already open selections, and those who were up to no good. This was said to be a place of great gathering, a place where people of all trades and kinds came to be with...

The Beauty And The Beast

Holly was laying on her bed hardly aware of the sounds that might be coming from her roof. Thinking that it was just the sounds from the night critters. But her three cats knew differently and though they were all normal. Only one would have to be put to sleep for it glacoma in its eyes and couldn't see very well. But the strange thing about her felines was the fact they all had feral blood in them.

"Are you sure you didn't tell them anything?" Demanded Jerica as she sat on Auron's shoulders while trying to put up some kind of banner she had made over the doorway leading to the living room.

"Listen I swear I didn't say a word, and I know Lunaria didn't either so quit worrying so much." Said Auron as he looked up at Jerica with a look that clearly said for her to hurry up and get the thing pinned in place. It had been a whole three years...

Twilight Remix! ((Catclaw))

Gwen just stared up at the school building with a look that bordered on indifferent and nervous. Here she was actually going to a school full of mortals and she wasn't even human herself! In reality Gwen was of elven blood, but like most unnatural creatures her and her friends and family were forced to keep their true identities secret. Not that it was extremely difficult since the only thing that distinguished her as an elf were her pointed ears, but her hair hid that most of the time....

Holly smiled softly at that, glad to be under some warm covers now, and with him. "Yes and you will never know just how much I love you too."

Making his way ((open))

Through the crowded streets he walked, taking in the sites around him. he had no weapons, at least none visable. more importantly, it didnt look as if he was to incredibly rich. other than the dragon scaled boots, nothing seemed out of the ordinary...unless you concidered a belt with 5 decent sized Gems on it out of the ordinary.

The small man, more like boy, walked, being dwarfed by the people of the street. weaving in and out, he seemed curious by the multiple shops and the such...

True it probably wasn't the smartest move sitting here on the roof, but since it was night he wasn't to worried about someone possibly catching sight of him. Then again it would have been hard to see him in the first place since most of the shadows kept him concealed, but he wasn't entirely stupid and didn't dare let his guard down once just in case luck decided to work against him. Of course he could always revert back to his human form and that would solve the problem all together, but...

Taking a break (sum lost guy)

feeds@yuku.com (CodeZX) — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 00:23:08 GMT

Gavin yawned and leaned back in his chair, resting in one of the crossing's many taverns. He smiled, listening to a tune that only he could hear, despite the music that was being played nearby. He was out of place visually, because he wore a cloak that was a dusty gray and white, and there was clearly no snow around anyhow.

The square was a bustling hot spot for those who have the art of thievery. What with all of the booths, and travelers attempting to sell their goods, there's always something there to steal. The layout was perfect too, and anyone who had any knowledge in thievery understood that a mess up in this place meant a disaster for anywhere else.

A pale head of short brown hair might have been seen bobbing between the tops of the...
