It’s just simple mathematics, really

They are evenly matched

Just now, at the Council Citadel, an airship appeared out of the portal and struck the Citadel's central spire, which is currently collapsing. Sources state this is a passenger airship dubbed the “Nautilon”, but why it's doing this is unknown.

…This just in, the airship was piloted by old councillor Koranth, returning from the plane of endless parties seemingly to enact revenge upon the Council for her replacement. The spire has collapsed with significant casualties ensuing. Teams are currently on the scene to capture her and her crew.

Have a great weekend, everyone.

I have left the dungeons thank to the help of multiple people here, and also the staff I order is finally done how's we feeling about it? It's an elemental type staff with a dull orb so I won't shine unless I used magic.

Photo I took and messed with the lighting and shading a bit.
Working on a series of short stories that follow the earth 50 years after a widespread magical awakening of the world and man that brings forth the end of the world as we know it.
I am piecing together photographs to match the stories, locations that I find and like.

Don't be a deadbeat Master, treat your undead right, or someone else will.

Guests approaching the gala are first greeted by the smell of food and spices emanating from within. Arach’s dedication to throwing a proper celebration is evident to the entering guests in the grounds themselves, the area is immaculately prepared, paved paths have been dug and set cleanly into the ground, the grass is cut uniformly short while beds of rare decorative plants mark out the edges of the event. Lively music plays from a space shaded by a large fabric canopy, its open sides revealing the extravagant main area of the event with intricately carved wooden tables trimmed with gold surrounding a central open space.

As each guest enters the event through a large archway at the front, a recorded psychic message is sent to their minds.

“Welcome one and all to the first official gala of the newly formed Gilded Council. After my recent announcement I went straight to work preparing this lovely event for all to attend! Truly it’s been too long since a proper celebration was had!

The gala grounds are an open air space with plenty of free room and secondary spaces for guests to enjoy themselves, but importantly there are three main sections open to all guests.

The main section is the outdoor ballroom. The area is shaded by a large fabric canopy, and underneath lies numerous dining tables and a section of dance floor. Guests can order food by simply using one of the enchanted dinner menus located at the tables to fill your plate. This makes a wonderful section for those of you who enjoy conversation and discussions.

The second section is a repossessed council garden. I had it built for the council as a venue to throw events just like this. So it seemed only fitting that I take it back for this gala. I would suggest to those of you less inclined to social interaction and noise to see how you enjoy the garden. The large hedges and fountains provide a wonderful sound barrier as well as a respectable amount of privacy for non-public conversations.

The final section happens to also be repossessed council property. This time a building. Originally it was a simple auxiliary structure I had built to house the departments I headed during my time in the council. But, with the renovations I’ve made, it will act as the beginnings of proper headquarters for the Gilded Council. The entire building is open for partygoers, and has been filled with various temporary games and activities ranging from traditional carnival games to an entire floor which has been temporarily set up as a maze with a reward for anyone who can get through it.

For anyone with any questions about my improved council, be it my plans or if you’re interested in joining me on this endeavor, or even if you aren’t interested in the Gilded Council at all and merely want to talk to me casually. Please feel free to find me at the ballroom where I will be glad to speak to any and every one of you attending.”

With that the psychic message ends and the guests are free to attend and enjoy themselves as they like.

/uw This event is meant for people’s characters to mingle and talk, so interaction is encouraged, even if it’s just saying your character is attending, maybe what they’re wearing to the event and what they’re doing once they’re there. Everyone is welcome to interact, speak with Arach, interact with other guests, or just describe what your character is doing at the event like ordering food or what section of the event they are at (feel free to make up things like specific carnival games your character plays or details of the scenery and sections, whatever you want to most enjoy yourself). Have fun!!!

Hello my little lemons, if you don't remember yesterday I told you about how in my journey to the Citrus Citadel to turn some lemons back to humans I abandoned my friends while running from a demon.

Today I tried to put a titanical lemon on the sky to attract them, but I accidentaly attracted to The Great Lord Chicken and his Chaos Legion, protecting the entrance of a city, I became a member of that legion just to don't get killed by them.

Inside the city I found something very strange, a spider with a hat giving a speech, it was talking about founding some type of Gilden Council, I agreed to join.

What should I do now?

To summon it you just have to sacrifice two mortals for the demon to grow out of

It is also pretty funny thing to do.

Greetings, fellow spell weavers and arcane aspirants. I am Arach. Many of you may know me, many of you may not. But who I am doesn’t really matter. Rather it is what I am announcing today that does.

This message has been made after much thought, and for a specific reason. There is an issue facing our sprawling society of magically inclined nations, cultures, and hermits. One that no one has seemed to address publicly, until now. That issue being the utter failing of the council, the sovereign force that has pushed its way into authority over us.

Now the issue I speak of is not that of the traditional council complaints. I am not here to moan over taxes, nor the banning of spells, nor even the tenuous and constantly shifting legality of certain dark magics. Rather I am here because of the failings of the modern council as a whole to recognize and follow its original purpose.

The fools of the new council operate under the naive idea that there is some inherent state of proper balance to our social world. They see the regulating states of nature and decide to apply that ideal baselessly to our societies. But this is denying the natural tendencies of magic wielders. What spellcaster does not bend the rules for themselves? There is no balance in immortality, or in harnessing the arcane for ourselves. It is our nature to take for ourselves and give back only that which we no longer have use for. So why then does the modern council refuse to acknowledge this? 

They act as if there is some code of moral rights that it is their duty to uphold and enforce. They act as if the council is meant to be honest, and fair. But that has never been its purpose! This foolishness is based only on a refusal to acknowledge the true original purpose of the council. It was never meant to operate as a true government, or a regulatory body. Because the council does not hold its own lands to be governed, nor can it properly regulate sovereign nations, no matter how hard it tries. The original purpose of the council was to be the oil that kept the gears of our worlds and realms turning.

It is no secret that our realms are chaotic, volatile, and prone to conflict. In truth, the only peace our many worlds will ever know is that which is fragile, and easily shattered. The council wasn’t made to prevent that shattering, such a goal would never be feasible. No, the council was made to lessen the frequency of those conflicts, and to smooth over the chaos that would ensue whenever peace did shatter. 

What is now considered the “corruption” and “unfairness” of the old council was a necessary factor in ensuring that process of smoothing over. The rampant bribery used to avoid council law which is now nowhere to be seen? It allowed the old council to dictate looser terms to those who otherwise would follow no terms at all. The corruption that swept the crimes of councilors and politicians under the rug? That was a tactic which prevented escalations and postponed conflicts while giving the council time to prepare for when the tensions eventually boiled over. The endless bureaucracy of paperwork and necessary approvals for any official council act? It prevented the collecting and abuse of power from within the council itself.

The current council acts as if it were a government even though it has no citizens. Acts as a regulatory body despite holding no proper means of enforcement. In their naivety they have denied the council its true purpose and rendered it an ineffective group incapable of causing any real change or help to anything other than a childish notion of upholding the status quo. It is an approach that will inevitably fail to keep up with the rest of the world, and will result in the council being either crushed or left behind.

It is for these egregious failings and missteps of the new council that I am making a decision some may call drastic. I can no longer tolerate this idealistic mockery of my beloved institution. I’ve long been a supporter of the council, I am a former member, and one of its largest and most consistent donors. After my removal from office I had hoped that with time and proper funding that the council would right itself and could go back to its old ways. Needless to say those hopes have long since been dashed, and as such I am ceasing my donations. 

Additionally, since the current council won’t uphold its original purpose, I will simply just have to make another council, so at least someone will be attempting to do right by it. In pursuit of this I will be repossessing my former personal additions to the council that I had left for them to use after I was expelled. This does include a few buildings around the main council citadel, as well as a few notable structures within the citadel proper. Obviously I won’t take anything vital to the council’s continued functioning, I know they’re already going to throw a fit over this without me disrupting them further. But considering I funded those buildings for a council that currently no longer exists, I am well within my rights to take them back.

Now I’m sure many of the current council members will be up in arms about this. But to them I simply ask this. What’re you gonna do about it?

To the rest of my fellow wielders of the arcane, I am announcing a ball to celebrate my new council. A Gilded Council, one coated in the glory of purpose the modern council now denies. I trust that all those reading now, whether supporters of my goal or not, will attend. To celebrate and, if not welcome a better council, than to pay tribute to the old council which held such fond memories for so many.

And to those of you interested in this new opportunity, please take note. I am open and eager to accept anyone who would like to join me in creating a proper council. All you need do is offer your services and there are no limits to the possible roles you could fill.

And with that, my announcement is over. 
To everyone reading this: thank you, and I wish you all a truly exhilarating day.

(I want to start a RP post let me know if the flair is wrong)

I swear, when i started doing this I didn't expect there to be so many pictures of cats in wizard costumes.

So I was coming over to a fellow witch's house, and we're good friends, but I saw a strange 'cradle' made of bones, soul gems, with some dream catchers hanging off the top of it. I asked her about it and she said "Oh yeah that's my cradle to release a new god of dreams to bring the world into eternal slumber."

Do you think this might be problematic? I mean bringing a new god into the world at this time is irresponsible! What if they can't make it through all of the chaos and adventurers?

So that's why I'm asking, should I try to talk her out of it, or is it none of my business what she does with her ingredients and soon to be new god?
