| 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. Create a character now! If you're already a member, you can log into your account below: |

Alexander was in the tunnels. It was Dark, quite dark. You could hear echos though, that would tell you were you were going. He kept walking, he stopped. Because he could hear a Goblin and a Kobold about 20m ahead of him. They seemed to be arguing about something, Alexander didn't know Goblin-tongue, so he couldn't make out the exact words, but he had an idea. He slowly walked towards them, trying not to make much noise; although he did make some, they did not notice him because of their yelling. He slowly crept up behind the Kobold with his mace in his hand, and he let it go hard on top of the Kobold's head. The Goblin was freaked out, and the Kobold was knocked out. I then saw what they were arguing over. It was, a Steel Shiv, and on the hilt, was a fairly large circular piece of Jade. (Shiv = Curved Dagger, used mainly in the off-hand by rogues). I glared at the Goblin, he must of been a younger or immature goblin, because he ran off at the glare. So I picked up the Dagger, slid it into my Backpack, and quickly started to go in the other way in case that Goblin had told others that I had been there. |

The tunnels; a haven for creatures of the night. Christian really had no reason to be down here, but his curiosity had got the better of him. He had forced Blake to come with him. He had passed the civilised areas and was now into a fairly barren, empty area. The tunnels seemed to open out and began to get taller. After going on for a while, he heard what seemed to be a fight up ahead. Drawing his dagger, he slipped into a dark area and observed. There seemed to be a fight between what looked like two goblins and a humanoid, after the humanoid dispatched one of the goblins, the second fled from the scene. The humanoid picked something up and headed toward the direction Christian was in, just as he passed Christian spoke: “Was violence really necessary?” |

I turn to the direction of the voice, and see you standing there. "Is spying on me necessary?" I say as I keep walking towards the exit I came in. It was strange to find another Humanoid down here, Alexander thought he was the only one here. "Who are you?" I then ask again, as I take out my mace. He seemed Darker, almost evil. But a sort of sarcasm in him. Again, I just turn around and keep walking. |

Blake happened to be with a buddy of his, Christian; and Christian had gotten in front of him. Blake was just slow, and he wanted to enjoy the dark before the beaming sunlight that burns his skin comes out. They entered a tunnel, and Christian had left a mark to let Blake know that Christian was still alive. Suddenly a goblin came out of know where running towards Blake. Blake closed line the goblin and lifted him up. Blake walked down the tunnel along with his goblin buddy. "Hey Christian don't go running off like that. What if a stupid human attacks me?" Blake started to walk further and he saw a shadowy figure. It was a human after he got closer. "Whoops a slip of the tongue. O well humans don't really care anyway." "Hey I am getting a little thristy here. What about you? Christian, I am just going to say one thing don't think about it. If you really need human blood I got some here. I won't hold you back if you want to drink his blood though." Blake sunk his teeth deep within the goblin's neck. Small drops of green blood. The goblin let out a small scream that later died down with his pain. Blake threw down the goblin and wiped his face of the blood. |

Christian smiled, baring his fangs. He looked straight at Blake, showing his obvious intent. Blake sighed, before dropping the goblin to the floor with a loud thud. “Well I’ll wait here, but don’t make me wait too long.” Christian turned, pursuing the Human. He only needed to run for about half a minute, his cloak flowing behind him; after reaching the human he stopped calling out: “Hey, you could stop. I only want to kill you and drink your blood.” He loved being sarcastic, but this time even though saying it in a sarcastic way, he was dead serious. |

"Why? I'm not that bad... At least I'm not an accursed Night Walker..."I turn around abruptly and swing my mace into his face. And then start to run... There's a Tunnel on the right, and then the tunnel that continues, I heard the voice of someone... Although I couldn't make out what it was... Damn' it! If by some idea of randomness, I go into the Tunnel to the right, and start to run even quicker. He ran, but could hear the voices of not one, but 2 People talking a bit away behind him. I stopped for a second, to try to concentrate on their conversation, and could pick up... "Wh...s...tha...you...we..chase...?" "Huma......fre...ld...." He then thought of what they were saying... Whats that...You were chase...Chasing? and then maybe.... Human...Free...No, Fresh, Blood... He then stood there, hoping they would disappear. |

Blake didn't want to be left alone, but he didn't like to kill in cold-blood of humans. Goblins and other things, he barely cared about. He ran after Christian, and it was difficult. "Turns out goblin blood doesn't give the boost like human blood does." Blake heard a giant thud in the echoing tunnel. Blake knew Christian was going to get made because of that. The human did have a mace before he ran away. Blake still ran. He was just there to make sure Christian did not get hurt or a wooden stake in the heart. Blake could easily fight with just his bare hands, so he decided to not draw his sword from its sheath. "Well your little food is now putting up a fight now isn't it? You really wanna turn this guy into a vampire?" Blake was still moving while saying this. |

Blake helped Christian up. After readjusting himself, Christian spat out some blood and turned to his companion, his usual smile replaced with a look of hate. “I’m gonna enjoy this.” He said, an evil smile spreading across his face. Quick as a flash, he took off heading in the direction of the human, stopping as he reached a split in the caves. He scanned the area, sniffing as he did so. “Aha!” He called down the right passage. “There is really no point running; I’m hungry, so that means I can smell you.” Christian let out a short laugh, charging off as he did so. He followed the cave for a while, before it opened up into a large cavern. He could sense that the human was somewhere in here. Striking a match, he lit a cigarette. “Time to play, my human friend!” He said, chuckling. |

As Christian finished running, I could hear the footsteps stop close to me, I concentrated for a few seconds, and then got myself into postion right in front of Christian he was next to me. I then lifted my Mace like a baseball bat...and... "Die you F*ckin' B*tch!" I yell as I swing the mace like a crazy person with all my strength, into the chest of Christian. (Since I'm right there, and you just stopped, You would have no time to avoid the mace) The mace collides with you chest, and the impact knocks you over. F*ck... That was a pain in the *ss... |

Blake ran and turned right. He kept running and entered a room in the cave. He leaned on the door and watched as Christian got hit in the chest with the big metal mass. Blake could care less. Vampires had a high regeneration, and it could heal within an hour. A cracked rib was nothing to a vampire. "Hey get up Christian." Blake started to focus some magic into his hand, and shot it from his hand. "Never knew this Magic Missile would actually come in handy." The shot was to make the human to run backwards and leave Christian alone. |

Damn it! I yell as I jump to the side as the magic missle collides with the wall of the cave. Alexander noticed though, that the mace could deliver a severe impact damage if calculated right. If I can get over to him, I might be able to crush his skull open. I start to gather a blue-green energy in my hands, and then the energy fades, but you then feel cuts on your face and inside your mouth. Inflicting wounds is fun isn't it I say as I charge at you with my mace held in both my hands. And lunge it at your head while your distracted from the minor cuts. Die Nightwalker... I say as I bring back the mace. and start running again towards the exit. ((The Wounds are toward Blake)) |

There was a short pause, then: “Die Nightwalker!” The human began to charge at Blake, his mace raised into the air. Just as he reached Blake and was about to bring his mace down on his head, Christian chuckled. “Payback B*itch!” He roared, as kicked the Human’s feet from under him. Upon the humans fall, Christian quickly brandished his dagger, burying it into the human’s back. The human let out a roar of pain as the dagger went in, echoing all around the cave. Just before the human hit the floor, Christian quickly withdrew his dagger, licking the blood off as he put it back in his jacket. Quickly utilising on his chance, he got down right next to the human, whispering in his ear. “Playtime’s over. You’ll be coming back with us.” Sinking his fangs into the human’s neck, he began to drink. After his fill, he got up and wiped his mouth. “Hey Blake, let’s go. That should do me for a while.” He chortled. There was no response. Christian slowly moved toward the entrance of the cavern where Blake was. He was knocked out, it seemed as Christian swept the Human off his feet, he had dropped his mace, deviating from it’s original path and hitting him where he couldn’t have dodged. Christian sighed. I s’pose, I’ll wait for both of ‘em to wake up. He thought, before lighting a cigarette and sitting down on top of the human, soon to be vampire. |

||20 Minutes Later|| Alexander woke up, he felt drained, but he felt such a hunger for human flesh and blood. "I guess I am one of you inferior kind now... I guess I shall have to succumb to the Vampire's ways from now on." Alexander stood up, his legs shaking. He thought of all the things he could do now... Increased Agility, Potency, Regeneration and Strength... He looked over at the still knocked out body of Blake. Why don't we leave him here... He should be able to find his way out on his own... He then walked, slowly, but he was walking over Christian. "You turned me into a Nightwalker...Soon enough, But not today...I will have my revenge |

Christian’s eyebrow rose at the new vampire’s words. “Two things.” He said smiling. “First: No, we shall not leave Blake here. I may be a vampire, but I do have some honour, and also Blake is my friend. Also secondly: now this is you choice. You come with us and we show you the ropes, or you go your own way and most probably die within, let’s say a month. Also we’ve got some people who’d love to meet you.” Christian walked over to Blake; removing the phial of blood from his pocket, he tossed it toward the new vampire. “I’m Christian, and yourself? Oh, and you might want to check your teeth.” |

Alex caught the phial of blood, and it looked so inviting, so delicious to him... He snapped the cork-top out, and drank the blood. The blood rushed down his throat, calming his blood-thirsty mind. And then he felt his newly grown fangs. "Ahhh... I even get the honorary Vampiric fangs.... Heh... I might as well come with you, I don't really have anywhere to go... If you wish to wait, that is fine I guess. Since you are the one who gave me the embrace of death anyway...Oh yeah, My name is Aleistor... (Who I will now be going by, since that is another version of the name Alexander) Aleistor sat down. And waited. |
