Welcome to Imythess, the border between dreams and reality. We hope you enjoy your visit.

Imythess is a creative writing board where you narrate the story of a character in the medieval land of Imythess, on the planet Chaon. Each topic is an opportunity for your character to interact with the world and its peoples by cooperatively writing pieces of a story with other members, one post at a time. We call this role-playing, because you assume the identity of your character as if it were your own.

In order to play, you must register an account for each character you would like to write about, and begin their tale by filling out their basic profile information: Race (human, elf, demon, etc.), class (warrior, mage, etc.), physical appearance, and any other personal details you would like to describe. You are also encouraged to come up with some background history information for what your character's life has been like up to the point at which their story in Imythess begins.

There is no approval process or application required to join, so long as you follow the rules then you are free to write whatever character details you choose. Registration is simple, fast, and completely free.

Shynthriir walked to the lake and was awed by the beauty and peace that it held. He was waiting from someone, the closest person to a friend Shynthriir had known in his few weeks out in the world. They were to talk and exchange stories and the like. Shynthriir hoped that Kyonis might knew some information that would lead to Shynthriir's past, but he doubted that he would.

Kyonis slowly walked the lake's coast, skipping rocks upon the short, rounded waves. The smell of the lake wafted Kyonis's nose, adding to the already evident serenity of this place. Shynthriir had asked Kyonis here, as far as Kyonis could tell simply to talk. In a way, Kyonis was glad. He didn't know anyone here on Imythess, and Shynthriir really was Kyonis's only connection. He was glad that he would be able to converse with someone, and perhaps release some of the tension that had been building up inside him.

It had been a long couple of weeks for Kyonis. His healing endeavors were not providing the results Kyonis had hoped. Try as he might, Kyonis could barely afford to feed himself, much less buy the necessary spells and weapons he would need to take revenge upon his parent's killer. And that was, of course, assuming Kyonis could find his parent's killer. At the moment, the entire plan that seemed once so great now seemed hopeless.

Shynthriir looked about the lake, still not seeing any sign of Kyonis. DId he plan on meeting with Shynthriir? He was about to turn and leave when he say a figure on the far side of the lake skipping stones in the water. He laughed at himself for the stupidity of not telling Kyonis a location to meet him other than that of by the lake. The lake was a large meeting spot and it was hard to find someone you are looking for there.

"Hey Kyonis!!" Shynthriir shouts across the lake, his hands cupped over his mouth to amplify his voice. One of his hands then reached in teh air and he waved it about to get Kyonis' attention. A fireball then left his waving hand. 'That will surely grab his attention,' he thought to himself.

Kyonis saw Shynthriir excitedly waving his hand. Then he noticed the fireball leaving his palm. "showoff," Kyonis muttered as he made his way over to the stranger that Kyonis called his only friend. Shynthriir continued to wave, and Kyonis just smiled at the drow's silliness.

After almost half an hour, Kyonis finally made it to the opposite end of the lake. It was a very large lake, and Kyonis felt like taking his time. Finally approaching the man Kyonis had come to meet, he said "Hello. And how are you, today?".

From another part of the lake, Drogan was watched the two ones talking to each other, Drogan didn't have any friends. He was a lonely Wizard. This started to get to him. Finally, he wasn't able to take it any longer, Drogan walked closer hoping they would notice him, and converse with him.

"Quite well actually. Recently I discovered an interesting rock, which makes it sounds more boring than it truely is. But I can tell you all about that later, how about you? What have you been up to since our last meeting?"

Shynthriir saw a figure slowly creaping toward them, but said nothing.

Drogan walked closer still in hope of them to acknowledge him. He didn't want to seem as if he was eaves dropping, which he wasn't. He just wanted to talk with someone, and he didn't know what other to do.

Kyonis warily watched the strange man who seemed to be lingering about Shynthriir and Kyonis. Forcing himself to look away from this stranger, Kyonis answered, "I have been very busy, actually. I have been spending my days trying to make it as a healer. I am afraid that business is not going so well as I had hoped. At night I have been staying with Ciara at the Temple of Air, which is near to here, actually. I hope to become one of her chosen. She is considering my request".

Kyonis was actually befuddled by the goddess. She had not been at the temple for days. Kyonis was, for some reason, worried for her. Not to mention he wanted to learn the results of his request. Shaking off these last thought, Kyonis asked, "So, what is it about this rock you have found, that makes it so special?".

Shynthriir almost felt uneasy talking about the stone. If it was not in a hiddlen location that he knew it would be safe at, he wouldn't have brought it up at all. "I was walking through some marshes one day and ran across a rock. It had a blue hue and some marking, parhaps runes, on it.

"Another traveler came to me and reveiled it to be a magical stone. It allows the user to travel through time, a true threat to all people it is. I tried to destroy the thing, but found I could not. I then learned that to destroy it, you need to know the true power of it and be able to use them to the fullest. I went to the Temple of Magic and left a message, but haven't gotten news back."

"Hmm... that is very strange. I'm afraid that my adventures in Imythess have not been quite as exciting. Work, hunger, and desperation pretty much sum up my entire experience here". That was very true. It seemed Kyonis was always either working for his food or eating whatever he could scrounge up. He had fallen on truly desperate times. However, he desired not to focus on that.

"So, what else is new?". Kyonis continued to eye the stranger who appeared to be eavesdropping.

Shynthriir could tell by the actions of Kyonis that the man was still there. "I seem to have grown a stalker in the last few days. The man that is listening to us, or trying to at least, has been stalking me for a good part of the day."

Drogan heard this and reacted to his rude comment, "I have not been stalking you!" He walks toward them. "I am not like that. I am sorry to appear to evesdropping, but I am a lonely Wizard and needs friends to converse with... O, I am sorry for not intorducing myself. My name is Drogan. I am an elven Wizard. And who may you be?" Drogan acknowledges the one Synthriir was talking to.

Kyonis gave a questioning glance at the elven wizard. He had never heard a grown man speak the words, "I am a lonely wizard and need friends". That was so... childish. Perhaps this man had a mental illness? Kyonis sighed. As he learned earlier that day, he could not heal those with mental illnesses. However, he may have a few herbs...

"So!", Kyonis said to Shynthriir, deciding to ignore the stranger. "Like I was saying...".

Shynthriir didn't even turn to reguard the man. A loney wizard indeed. If he was such a lonely wizard, why doesn't he find other people to talk to? Why does he persist to talk with Shynthriir? The look in Kyonis' eyes said that he was thinking similar thoughts.

"Yes, go on. What were you saying?"

Drogan got even closer. "I believe you two didn't hear me.... O wait. I am eing rude. I am sorry. If you two don't want me here, then just say the word and I will leave, but I wish to stay. I wish to talk. I wish to become friends." He said to both of them.
