@Misadventure There is a room mood code that you can add during RP that involves action or an event that is going on. When you actually set an event on the calendar, it allows you to set a room description that everyone will see when they step into the room for the scene and every time you look at the room you will see that desc again. You can customize it to any color you want, too.

If you type 'time' without +time, you will see the IC time like "It's an Autumn day, in the morning.

I haven't been able to get on when scenes are running, but I've seen @Ganymede being very proactive with the different spheres. Looks good to me so far. Hopefully I can send my vampire to one of your shindigs soon!

Wooo! ZBZ sistah.. Lily here.

A modified version of the dead fish hat. The dead fish hat and its short rows seemed a bit rough for a first hat, so I am going to try this one first: http://www.deadfishhat.com/fishy-patterns/half-fish-beanie

That is really cute. I wish I had the patience to sit and knit or crochet things. My needle is still in the bag, in the package. >.> My cookies are still waiting in the wings, too. While I'm not sure if this is considered 'crafty', I'm obsessed with finding the right shades for contouring makeup. I'm stupidly obsessed.

@lordbelh I only got to play with you as Victus but he certainly left an impression with me. Great RP every time.

Brigida! I am Calista. Been hoping someone would pluck her off roster

How have I not seen this thread? This is seriously my every day. Not that I feel down every day but I spend so much time thinking what to feed others that I don't feed myself properly.

My ride or die meal is arroz con pollo, yellow rice with chicken and vegetables. I usually like is asopao which means it's more stew like in texture and consistency but it feels like a hug from inside. Basically any food that can make me feel like it's hugging me from the inside is my go to Depression food. I have a recipe for it somewhere. It's really easy to make. One pot, chicken, rice, stock, veggies and sazon Tropical which has all the seasons you need for this.

@Deviante Let us know if we can help!

... that is if the game felt overwhelming.

If it's life, right there with you. #ughadulting

NGL, it's kind of both, but rl makes the ic overwhelming. If I can manage some good sleep, I'll be golden. Thank you

@Quinn Gretchen was good fun. I had fun meeting her, Lisebet and Olivia.

I self advocated! And it worked! I was a little blunt and firm and used words like 'unacceptable' and 'would like to be acknowledged as a partner in my mental health' and 'I don't feel like you are listening to me'. So now I will soon get non stimulant ADHD meds!!!

(because Kaiser hates cannabis and wont gimme stimulants lest I am 100% pee test clean. And as a former daily user who is overweight, tha'll take a bit.)

So, woo!

I have a medical cannabis card because my state does that. It's for migraines, but I've seen strains labeled as helping with ADHD and thought that has to be nonsense (I have ADHD and have been on and off stimulant medication since diagnosis in high school.) HOWEVER as it turns out the pot for adhd thing wasn't nonsense. There are a few that get me focused as anything, and can get a ton accomplished.

yeah it's not nonsense at all. I smoked pretty regularly for like 15 years, and during that 15 years I had no : insomnia, migraines, anxiety (the cause of the former), and didn't feel nearly as overwhelmed/scattered.

I stopped smoking and everything fell apart

Yeah I have anxiety with ADHD (and migraines) I think they are a frequent team. Pot helps with both to be honest, and I'm hoping it will let me cut down on the prescription meds required to make my brain even mildly useful.

Once I've weened baby from nursing, I'm going to look into something like this (CBD related) but I just don't want to smoke or get the high because I'd hallucinate sometimes and I just don't have time for that. I just want less anxiety/body aches and more control over my ADHD that doesn't involve going back on Adderall even though that shit was like amazing for the short time I took it.

I don't know who plays what character but I've been enjoying this game so much. And the pub channel rocks, spammy or not. The bromance between Leo and Valkieri is enough to just sit back and watch if I have nothing else going on.

@Reno
Tommy, Bruja

Oh, we played briefly! I was Francesca Giovanni. I loved my character there. Might have to take her out of the freezer if Reno is still happening.

Naya Rivera, aka Santana Lopez of Glee.

Fucking tragic, man.

That whole cast is cursed, I swear.

I said the same thing earlier. This story is so sad

In reply to +tasks, I will do a task if I know I won't be super active in RP during a week and have more RL stuff going on. I will focus on a couple of people and RP a task with them. Most of the time though I have just been focusing on RP an story and it hasn't seemed to affect my character much at all.

I do feel +tasks is still cumbersome in design but when you fill out all the parts you need to fill out in +support, it seems to make sense. Plus with +support there's a section for rumors that goes up on the webpage and every one loves reading rumors and crap like that for future RP inspiration.

I love the game, I love the RP I have found in Arx, I love the people oocly. I wish I could finish my family house but that will happen sooner or later. There's no real rush to anything at the moment which is very different from other games I've played in the past so it is a refreshing change of pace.

Oh, I remember this Battimus!

@testament I also watch Dr. Pimple Popper. OH! And Botched!

Guilty pleasures.

Regarding character sexual orientation, my take is that it's left vague on occasion for player interpretation. While there is a roster system, the character does actually feel like yours and depending on the stories you create, your character changes and grows over time. It's not like other roster games where if you played off sheet you were reprimanded or in jeopardy of losing the character.

I love Silas! I'm Calista/Eithne

@Packrat look at you bribing people!!
