Except he HAS done Murkey. Foul. Name a new one!

Fine, he still absolutely would with @safrona-shadowsun if she gave him the word and her guy was okay with it.

VI. The Lovers - have your character’s heart and mind ever been at odds with one another?

“On a battlefield, no. There is no place for my heart there, as it is far too tender for such a brutish landscape. It is left in my tent, where it belongs when I take up my sword and shield.”

Sipping from the the travel cup in her hand, notes of raspberry and mint drifted on the sea air of Kul’Tiras. Addie had found herself a sunbeam to sit in, and could be easily likened to a cat with regards to how content she seemed as the warmth cast itself across her pale skin. Where usually questions asked of her tinged on her anxious ways, her current position seemed to do wonders in keeping her fingers still and breathing even.

“Beyond that, I often find that clash comes when my self-doubt reaches a fevered pitch, and I let my unfounded fears get the better of me. My mind conjures the unpleasant and melancholy thoughts that overpower my romantic heart on account of having denied it for nearly a decade of any recognition. It is a struggle, but one I have made great strides in since our Trinity formed. I fumble...often, but thankfully I have patient and understanding fiancee’s who can feel what I mean versus my needing to articulate it.”

((Thank you for the ask!))

😍- For any of them!!

Woman I don’t even know where to begin. From the first time I met you on Eryn to today with Melrose and every single character in between. I have been in awe of your writing. You bring something to each one of them and then to find out what you do behind the scenes,rolling for things to make up your mind and then just sticking to it... I am just ...WOW.

You have been someone who I’ve interacted with on Risri, on Jazi, on Gideon, and now with Constance. All I can say is that you have helped me both on an OOC level and IC levels. You’ve driven me crazy and you’ve been a source of laughter and friendship. I am so glad you reached out about Gideon and have enjoyed every interaction with him and Priscilla. You give of yourself, maybe sometimes too much. BUT Never doubt you are loved. And thank you for all the help you have given to the paper over the years from the theme to working with us now.

I adore you missy.

This is bootiful

Thank you! I’m quite proud of it! I was nervous before starting. I didn’t want to do Jodie any wrong with how she depicted Lizzie.

18: A song from the year that you were born

ACHEY BREAKY HEART

[coldwall-collective]

“Our lives, but a series of masks. Masks we take great effort to maintain. Masks that we decorate with notions to our conscience in hopes that their gleam shall cover the emotions and the persona that lay beneath. As all of our days are a masquerade, our interactions a dance, and who we are simply a series of covers to guard us from this world.”

You are hereby invited to attend..

THE DESCENT MASQUERADE

A celebration of the aspects of our society that few would openly entertain. Though our methods may be noble or vile, we all still decorate our masks in our own way to present the face we wish others to see.

Thus, we invite you to join us in Pandaria, upon the Eastern Edge of the Jade Forest on the afternoon and evening of June 20th, beginning at 4 bells. Please take the time and effort to decorate a mask to your liking, adopting a persona or animal guise you feel most attributes to that hidden part of you, the things others so seldom see. All those without a mask will unfortunately be turned away.

The Masquerade is beyond the bounds of Alliance law and Horde pact, thus expect that a measure of chemical and sensual indulgences will be provided to all whom attend. Challenges and games of the physical and mental kind will be on offer as well, along with several overlapping offerings to those of particularly keen affect.

We hope to see many of you walking among us on that evening. Let us wear our masks with pride, if only for a single night.

- C.

OOC INFORMATION:

The Coldwall Collective is fast approaching our five year anniversary with all of you here on WrA. Over the years, this community has welcomed us and our members, our stories, our events, and our writing into their world and we can’t ever express how much that means to us. We owe so much of our continued success to all of you, and we would love to have you with us for a night in celebration of that fact.

The setting, OOCly, for this event is the Temple of the Jade Serpent in the Jade Forest of Pandaria. We will begin admitting people into the grounds officially at 4pm ST, and the event is slated to last for 3-4 hours but may run longer dependent on the feel of the event. There are some potential phasing issues at the location, which may bar lower levels from attending. We will keep everyone posted on the day of the event.

This event is cross faction! We’d ask you bring your own Elixair of Tongues, but our staff will also have some available if necessary. We will endeavor to have both Horde and Alliance staff on hand for rolls and whispers.

The masquerade will offer a number of entertainment options, from dancing, drinks, and drugs to fights and mental/party games. It is a freeform event, and though there will be a number of entertainment options, attendees are encouraged to mingle and enjoy the space to their leisure. There shall also be a number of more indulgent options, and while nothing will be overt, we want to make it clear that THIS IS AN 18+ EVENT DUE TO THE THEMES ON DISPLAY! We ask that any engagements against Blizzard TOS be kept to party chats, should they arise.

Please, feel free to design a mask for the event and post it onto tumblr! If you tag us here at @coldwall-collective​ we will happily reblog your mask/outfit to show it off! Masks -are- required for attendees, but you need not go out of your way to draw one up. A simple TRP blurb will be fine!

We heavily encourage all attendees to create a totally new TRP/MRP for the evening. Invent a name, make up a new profile, all in keeping of the nature of the masquerade and its feel.

The theme of this night is intended to allow everyone on this server to ‘step into our world’ for the evening. See in romantic and entertainment senses what it is to be Coldwall. There will be a number of hidden aspects throughout the Masquerade, open to those with a keen eye and a talent for putting together pieces and seeing the truth behind the mask. Perhaps you might find something you never expected to see.

The evening shall be what you make of it. So come and enjoy a night with us. A night of letting go.

[In no particular order]

People

@risrielthron One of the best. You will feel as if you are talking with your lifelong friend. Sweet, friendly, and generous. A true example of who we should all try to be more like.

@theodorebennas Daddy Beans. Chill dude. Knows he can be a bit of a meme and owns it. Actually extremely smart and has a ton of good sense. Crusade!

@tanzrielle Super chill in the most not chill way. Will talk your ear off about their awesome characters and want to hear all about your own too. Great person to know and bounce ideas off of.

@thebattlesheep @a-sheep-does-art Sweet thing. Loves to meet new people. Does not RP much but when they do they kill it.

@possum Loser. (Seriously such a humorous, sweet, and all around amazing person.)

@wiedaashcroft Really great character, and the person who plays them is extremely laid back and chill.

@the-petalpaw-family They don’t RP as much right now, but their stories and characters are next level. No lie, they take things like plot and character lineage to places you rarely see. Amazing places.

@kat-hawke ICly very interesting and intense character. OOCly a more grounded individual. Blunt, but never cruel.

@darthscharactervault Someone who does not give themselves nearly enough credit for how creative they are with their ideas and characters.

@gwenya Often NSFW but she’s a gem of a person. Amazing, chill, down for whatever. She’s the raunchy friend you never knew you wanted.

@the-real-arcanist-val Smart person, fantastic writer, extremely sensible and rational. All around someone you want to know.

@vaard Never personally interacted with him, but he’s an iconic figure among the community. Everyone should follow. (Does not take commissions but is an amazing artist, too.)

@harvee-sarah-zena One of my closest RP partners. Might not post as much as they SHOULD but if you can catch them their RP is some amazing work. And their characters are all so unique.

@thegreatnyehehe Likely not returning to WoW any time soon, but still one of the best characters ever. To this day, worth reading through their posts.

@kinzorscarstorm Chill dude with a cool character. Have not interacted much IC, but respect them OOC for their char and methods.

@open-world-azeroth Not really a ‘person’ but a great resource for some fantastic RP spots.

@mediocre-bladeleaf Very cool aesthetic, and from what I see of their writings they have some awesome characters.

@draenei-tales Shout out to a fellow active and really cool looking Draenei RPer. All I see from them is extremely interesting.

@leora-strauss Don’t know much about the character but their aesthetic is so amazingly cool.

@serelia-evensong Active and interesting RPer. Will fill your dash up with fun to read posts of all kinds.

@susan-gampre Hoe. But she knows it. And she’s good at it. The character and RPer both are sassy and take no shit, and I love them for it.

@storykeeper-wra Spooky character. But not tired and boring spooky. The sort that’s very interesting. Like a good book. Makes sense they are the storykeeper, because their story is very appealing.

@halforc-mercenary Have always wanted to interact with their character but never much got the chance. Still adore their writings on my dash, and they often impress me with their plots and quality.

@rhysgoodwin Cute char, updates often, fantastic writer.

@priestess-nightfury Elf RP/Aesthetic at some of its very best.

@stonestridernerd They will love you and make you feel like the best person ever just be hurling likes at you and complimenting your work. They are just a gem of a person. So, so sweet.

@theshadowborn Shame I’[ve not interacted with their character much, but they are a clearly talented writer.

@durotan-ofthe-frostwolf Lot of OOC silly stuff, but genuinely a cool person and always a pleasure to see on your dash.

@ranekvilmas Just a very talented writer and all around chipper guy. One of those people who always has something interesting on their blog to read.

@penvenomstarkstar A good head on this one’s shoulders. ICly their character is extremely well written with so, so much depth. Endless things to discover here.

@ravenpriest DAMN awesome aesthetic. Really nails the gothica vibe.

@longveil Such a cool aesthetic. I’d follow for that alone, and there is so much more there too.

@kyuusei-shadowleaf Another blog worth the follow for aesthetic alone. So cool to see across your dash.

@k-sunrael Followed for a long time. Their blog can sometimes be a bit NSFW but the content is quality.

@monster-of-master In the vibe of ‘dark’ aesthetic without being overtly in your face. The sort of subtle horror we all secretly crave. Very much enjoy their content.

@summysparklesprocket Such an amazing, kind, and funny person. And the character is next level because they are a Gnome taken seriously. Love them.

@quai-mason @andrew-mason Extremely talented writer and one of the few who posts so, so frequently. You’ll eagerly await their next post, trust me.

@unabashedrebel ICly they are a very cool character with awesome stories. OOCly they are a smart and conscience driven individual with a good moral sense. More than once they’ve shown they are not afraid to stick up for what matters. Lot of respect.

@safrona-shadowsun Killer character aesthetic, great reblogs, and does not ruin their theme with bullshit. Fantastic follow, this one.

@helryder666 All over the place with their posts, but its never unwelcome or uninteresting. They always seem to know what you wanna see, even if you don’t know.

@thewardancer Some of the best troll aesthetic I’ve seen, honestly.

@brandstonethings Just a big bear of a man. I love him, and you will too. He’s so well written he feels alive.

@archmage--khadgar I hesitate with people who RP lore characters. This one managed to be one of my few exceptions. They actually do a really great job with it.

@forhonorandglory Only followed for a short time, but still worth it in my books. Sharp wit, great character.

@covexalexanderkingsley Don’t know if they still RP as much these days but they remain a very fantastic and creative individual.

@eilitheduskbringer Very talented writers. One of the best I’ve seen. And they host to an amazing community I’ve come to respect.

@thepalewolfhowls Great artist too, but I mainly know them for their awesome character and fantastic sense of story and plot.

Guild/Other

@the-royal-courier A fantastic source of events and stories. While they don’t host many writings of their own, they still reblog community events. Absolutely advise a follow.

@stormwinduniv Been around about as long as my old arse. Very talented group of writers who put on so many community events and intellectually focused debates.

@the-silver-circle A group of extremely talented writers focused entirely on Kaldorei writing and storylines. Very high levels of respect from me.

@moment-in-time-wra Less a ‘guild’ but still a great service for in game photography. They make your events look fantastic! Run by Risri.

@atc-wra A very talented small group of RPers who know how to make stories pop. You just want to be a part of them, or read what happens next.

@deadsunharbor Very fantastic crew who are open to all manner of amazing RP opportunities. They do criminal/dark correctly and with finesse rarely seen.

@oathswornvanguard Lawful good guild done proper. They have stood the test of time not only with their quality but their kindness and openness to the community.

@wraconnect A great source of WoW events and blogs to follow.

@wowrpevents Another fantastic source of WoW events and blogs to follow.

@wracentral ANOTHER fantastic source of WoW events and blogs to follow.

Artists

@whimsicallyart @elaianna Talented, intelligent, observant, and all around a gem of a person. Worth knowing.

@littleliongod One of the best I have worked with. Talented, priced very fair, extremely punctual, very communicative. Can not possibly recommend enough for any commission work.

@artofaokori Worked with them before and would absolutely do so again. Their style is very unique and you’ll recognize it anywhere in a good way.

@vintrove @vinsketchbook Extremely talented. Some next level stuff. Commissioned them twice and both times they blew me away with the end product.

@catbatart @cat-bat Such a shame I’ve only worked with them one time. One day, I must commission them again because they are the sort of artist who will go that extra mile and bring your piece to life.

@ferachidoesart They are Ferachi. They do art. Really well. Great style, super unique, and their commission prices are way more reasonable than you’d expect for their amazing quality.

@auggusst-art @auggusst Really such a kind and talented soul. One of those hidden gems of tumblr. They deserve more notice, so go give it to them!

@blackdogmelancholyooc @blackdogmelancholy Nerd. But actually a really cool dude with a ton of raw talent. They are great to work with.

@anzka Have not posted here in a while, but you should take a peek. Why? Because no one. Draws. Gnomes. Better.

@planktonheretic You like thick ladies? What about buff ones? Then my friend, have I got a treat for you. That treat is Plank. Check out their Twitter too for even more fantastic work!

@kellydidathing Amazing artist. Very busy person, but worth the investment because the art is top notch.

@izzarra Talk about raw talent refined into a craft. This artist is going places, seriously. Amazing stuff.

@thestringking @jane-fitzgerald @ahn-qiraj Extremely talented young lad who I know will go on to kill it in the art industry. Already one of the best out there, no lie.

Self Plug

My blog should be easy to find, right at the top of this post here, or the bottom. If you want to see all my character blogs, please check out RIGHT HERE (under repairs atm so a few of the characters might not work or link improperly) for a complete list. Each character page here contains a link just under their summary that will take you to their individual blog. Check out the ones that interest you!

Also want to plug my own guild, @coldwall-collective, for still being some of the best writers and content creators I’ve had the pleasure of working with. Go check us out!

Not Here?

Don’t be sad! Many reasons could be the cause. Maybe we’ve just not interacted enough. Or maybe I’ve not seen many of your posts. Maybe I overlooked you because I’m silly. Any of these could be a reason. If you don’t see yourself here, it does not mean I don’t appreciate you. I do. You’re a part of what makes this community great and I have all the respect for you.

Send 📝 for a rule you think is important when it comes to role playing

Communication is king. Being on good speaking terms with your partner and feeling comfortable enough to speak up when things aren’t right in a scene or somethings not working is arguably more important then the scene itself. Not to mention things flow better when you can actively communicate and have a similar flow for how the scene will unfold. It’s a collaborative process, and there have been a lot of times the scene I’ve got in my head is different then the scene my partners had in their head. That’s okay, btw. Communication makes things like that smooth. It’s the difference between awkwardly watching a scene lose its luster or working together to find the middle ground that makes it fun for everyone.

Don’t get me wrong, surprises in RP are hella cool, and plot twists can be very fun. But in those types of situations I feel the less is more approach is good- unless of course it’s primarily your story.

Thanks @theshadowborn !

E : EMBRACE. does your muse like hugs? what are their hugs like?

Leon, surprising nobody, loves hugs. He likes giving them more than receiving them, but it’s a pretty narrow margin. His hugs are protective and warm, and he tends to draw a person into him rather than grabbing them or clinging to them unless he’s had a really awful day. At that point he’s teddy-bearing somebody and it tends to be awkward if they’re smaller than he is.

🕊️- 3 habits you have?

Iloam licks his bottom lip when he’s turned on.

He looks up at the ceiling when he’s thinking about something complicated or trying to put words to emotions.

When jogging, he will only run clockwise circuits, never counterclockwise - as he believes that would invite bad luck.

thanks @theshadowborn
