Posted by [DELETE] Shentae the Baron of Forests, fourth guy in the group on October 26, 2000 at 16:03:04:
I've been playing this mud for about two years or so. Well, here is my role and stuff. Thought I could have done alot better with it(maybe if I proof read). Oh well. Desc The smell of pine fills the air as this half-elven man role As a rich boy from Galadon, Shentae did'nt know much about Nature,
I gotta say, I love it. If there is one thing I learned, its that playing something that kills you the most with your last char is the best strategy for getting better. Thank you, Shokai. Sometimes I feel like I'm just the "Fourth guy in the group". The one that almost makes it, but doesnt. What I mean is im just not that good at this mud. I don't know where to get re equipped after I die, therefore depending on others. I played an Arbie before this who always depended on the mass stash of items that overflowed the pit. I thought I did ok, but it got boring after getting in an xp hole trying to learn the ropes better. Don't get me wrong, I love the game. Well, whatever. I interacted with Caragwyn, Euralianos, Delanathean, and Eylorstra. So sad that I can actually name all of them.
Good luck to all of you with your current and future chars, but most importantly....real life.
desc + come towards you. He stands crooked with a hunched
desc + back and weird legs. He fills the air with his hatred
desc + of cities. Dark green eyes, they look like two emeralds.
desc + They gleam at you with the color of leaves, grass, wild
desc + flowers, Nature. Long hair that reaches the mid section
desc + of his back. It is tied together by a small blade of
desc + grass. He has a small earring that sort of looks like a
desc + miniature bug hangs on his left ear. Eyebrows that connect
desc + make him look like he is always mad at something, but the aura
desc + of goodness he emits is imistakably soothing. Rough tanned
desc + skin with some battle scars, but not too many. You imediately
desc + notice he is missing a finger on his left hand. His smallest
desc + one. Stout chest and flat stomache. This half-elf is fit.
desc + vains pop out of his forearms and neck when he clenches his
desc + fists. Legs that look like two tree-trunks sprout from his
desc + waist. His feet are well placed indicating his balance and
desc + ever vigilance. One last thing you notice is his beard. It
desc + goes from the sides of his ears to the bottom of his square
desc + chin. Its strangely green. It emits the smell of dew, of
desc + grass, of Nature. It looks like a moss patch. He takes his
desc + four fingered hand and scratches his chin, looks you over and
desc + nods. Almost obliviously, he returns to his previous actions.
desc +
desc + Looking deeper into him, you vigilintly notice that.......
role + let alone surviving in the wild. Born to a rich family of merchants
role + he was sort of the spoiled child, the center of attention. He always
role + felt he was better than everyone else. Little did he know, all the
role + children thought different. They "Respected" him because of the rank
role + he held, his wealth, his name. The name "Bolithine" was very well
role + respected. It brought fear to other merchants. Nothing but the best
role + silks, jewels, and cloth. The name was known world-wide. He grew up
role + as a very fat boy, always being pampered. He loved his life-style.
role + He felt he was the king of the world. He pushed around the other children
role + because they were not as rich as he. He only had friends that leached off
role + of him. As he grew older, he became snobier and snobier. He soon became
role + known as "Greedy fat boy". He did'nt care, he knew he was rich and that was
role + the bottom line. One day, in the month of Deception, the unspeakable would
role + happen....
role +
role + It was dark, the moon was full, and Shentae was fast asleep in his bed.
role + He heard a loud scream in the southern part of his house. He woke up to
role + a bordello of flames and fire. His home was being decimated, destroyed.
role + fire everywhere, the doors were blocked by massive flames, the windows
role + hot to the touch. The door slammed open! A group of men with axes
role + walked into his room. Their were about six men. The first holding a
role + massive red sword that spout magical flames. The second, an axe of pure
role + silver. He wrecked all the beautiful tapestries and tables. Paintings
role + defecated, walls broken down, flowers ripped from their roots dieing on
role + floor engulfed in fire. The third man was a thin man with a hood that picked
role + Shentae and tossed him across the room. The fourth was a stout strong man
role + that looted all the most valuables. The fifth man helped the fourth loot
role + and destroy. The sixth man...the sixth man walked in slowly. He scanned
role + around Shentae's room looking for more valuables. In his hand was a small
role + bag. He looked at Shentae, grinned, and licked his lips. He stuck his
role + hand inside the bag and pulled out the heads of Shentae's parents. He took
role + them and licked the stumps of the necks. He drank their blood right in front
role + of this young boy. The sixth man said in an eary, hoarse voice, "You there, boy,
role + you will not be killed." He peered around himself and continued, "You, will live
role + with the pain of this night. You will never forget what has happened this night."
role + He started to cackle. He began, "Hold out your hand, fat boy." Shentae held out
role + his hand hesistantly. The man smiled. He roughly took Shentae and took out a small
role + knife. He unsheathed it and swang. The knife struck straight through Shentae's left
role + smallest finger. He screamed in extreme agony. The dark man said, "Boy, with this
role + you bare the mark of the "Six". You are cursed to live the life of a hermit. Bound
role + to live in the wilderness. You will not remember what exactly happened this night, but
role + the mark will set you on your path. Shentae weakly bled all over the floor. His wound
role + suddenly closed, leaving a stump where his finger used to be. The man said, "You will be
role + the seventh when you are ready. The true embodyment of evil." All Shentae could think
role + about was how his finger did not hurt any more. As he looked back up, the men were gone.
role + He looked around the room but found nothing. Out of nowhere, he heard a voice. The voice
role + said, "One day, boy...one day...". Everything suddenly became a white blank. He regained
role + consciounes in Silverwood. He found himself lost, emotionally battered, weak. He found
role + a small blade of grass that was unrippable. He grabbed it and placed it inside his torn
role + rags. From that day forth, Shentae would never be the same....
role +
role + The first few months were devastating. He found himself starving almost every night.
role + Thirst beyond comprehension. He was an unskilled boy in the wilderness. He slept
role + inside caves with huge bears. He sooned learned to adapt and he had an understanding
role + with the animals. He lost weight, he became physically and emotionally fit for his
role + future life. The once pompous fat boy was no more. A new Shentae would be born, one
role + of the forest home. He realized in his mind how the city life was only of greed and
role + selfishness. No one cared for each other, only of ones possessions were important.
role + This was the begining of his realization. The forest was his home, the only place he
role + knew. It was his sanctuary. His former life was no more and was soon dispersed from
role + his mind. His past was a blank. From that day forth, he became Shentae the forest
role + dweller, destroyer of evil....
*----------------------------------------------------------------*
role + His heart was beating faster and faster as he finally got up enough strength to
role + with Delanathean. The great Lieutenant of the Warders. He was asked to go to
role + a place where their was a solemn place away from the strong winds of the north.
role + On his was there he met a fellow by the name of Kiac. A strong willed, jolly
role + warrior of the Forest. He had many pieces of shiny armor and swords. He asked
role + Shentae what a Warder was. Shentae answered, 'A lover of Nature, a Warrior of
role + the forest, A protector of the all that is nature.' Kiac noded in aggreement.
role + The great warrior of the forest asked Shentae to take him along in his quest to
role + find the Warder Lieutenant. They found many obstacles along the way, many rocky
role + roads. At all long last they made it to the solemn place. It was quiet, beautiful.
role + The lieutenant came into Shentae's view and greeted him with gifts. They both sat
role + and began to speak. They spoke for hours and hours. Speaking of the drow, of good
role + and evil, of protecting. Delanathean spoke many wonderful and wise things to Shentae.
role + At long last, the Lieutenant finished his conversation. He sais to Shentae, "You show
role + much potential and fire to become a warder, though you are young." Shentae had
role + achieved the twelth rank in his guild. The Lieutenant told him, "Speak with me again
role + when you have become stronger in both body and mind. Learn about the drow, about good
role + and evil, and how they affect our forests." Shentae agreed absolutely. Parting at
role + of his lords mountian, Shentae left to train.
role +
role + Long agonizing days past. Mangling evil beasts in the forest and being mangled by
role + evil beasts, he worked harder then ever. The thirteenth rank came to his name, then
role + fourteenth, the fifthteenth, etc...He stands proud today at the twenty eighth in his
role + guild. He had found friends along the way, as well as enemies. Till this day, he
role + awaits to speak with the lieutenenant once again....
