[dropcap]I[\/dropcap]t’s been a long time since I’ve\u00c2\u00a0given\u00c2\u00a0a proper update on things. Let’s start with the two most obvious: I’m back, and the blog is redone. However, there’s quite a bit more as well, including a good few plans for the next few months. Curious yet?<\/p>\n

I’m back, where was I?<\/em>
\nWell, the Megan was on a long deep thinking hiatus where work tried to devour her very soul. \u00c2\u00a0Also, I couldn’t find my tablet. Also, also<\/em>, I was having a horrid time racking my mind over things like how to manage the Mag’Ud<\/a>. More on that in a bit.<\/p>\n

Hey, the blog is all brown like!<\/em>
\nI decided to continue with the browns to be\u00c2\u00a0reminiscent\u00c2\u00a0of not only nature, but an old story book. This project isn’t at all about fake money, and not really about the real stuff. It’s about coming together, writing, and exploring. \u00c2\u00a0I may have the role of page-master, and often overlord, but we’re all the writers to spin the story. Yeah, granted, writing about lion-bear-tigr-goat things isn’t most folk’s cup o’ tea. On the other hand, there’s a wonderful chance of a rich and varied world with a life all it’s own. Also note that many of the pages got content added to them. There’s even an easy (yet\u00c2\u00a0through\u00c2\u00a0 description of all the clans<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So, what else?
\nAs I was saying before, the Mag’Ud\u00c2\u00a0finally\u00c2\u00a0have a system that’s easy enough for just about anyone to remember, and\u00c2\u00a0flexible\u00c2\u00a0enough to create a unique and \u00c2\u00a0in-depth character. And yeah, they’re still rare and pretty much RP required. There’s a good few of you who have one though, and I highly<\/em> suggest you get to registering<\/a> them soon!<\/p>\n

We’re also skipping any notion of a Halloween event. Yes, there’s still two weeks and I could probably put something together. I’m opting, however, to take a bit more time working\u00c2\u00a0towards\u00c2\u00a0a winter festival. (By the way, you will have to have your Mag’Ud registered before the festival<\/span> to be able to roll or\u00c2\u00a0receive\u00c2\u00a0bonuses) It also let’s me get caught up on\u00c2\u00a0growing\u00c2\u00a0before then as well.<\/p>\n

The rules<\/a> page has also been updated. Don’t steal, beg, or be a general dick, and you’ll be perfectly fine. Figured it was a good time to clarify the basics a bit.<\/p>\n

Hmm… thinking that’s about it for this round…<\/p>\n

Oh! the forums<\/a>. I’d like to encourage everyone to go try them out for a bit. Do some roleplay. Let me know how it’s working. Trying to offer not only a non-gaia alternative, but something I can keep a bit cleaner and control a bit more than the guild. This mainly means that for people who are only interested in this project and nothing else on gaia, they won’t have to log in to gaiaonline at all. You will have to register to be able to view many of the boards (including RP). It will stay like that for a while to keep away spammers and evil bots. Have had issues with them in the past.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And to leave you with a few things to eyeball. A preview of one of the pets for the winter sale, as well as some sketches I did for line practice. It’s been far too long since I picked up my tablet.<\/p>\n
