Role-Playing Writing, Part 2

It's not easy to save the world from the Evil One, especially while writing letters about it. But the undaunted Empowered continue their mission from Part 1.

For those of you just tuning in:

This was Alice’s idea, sort of a cross between RRRs and RPGs with a touch of epistolary novel. Here’s how she described it:

Everyone makes up one character (made up, mind you!) and we decide on plot, time, etc. just like usual. Then we start. It would be in the form of letters or e-mails, and we would say at the top of our post who the letter was to.

Everyone would have to read all of the posts, though, to prevent conflicting plot twists, but their character wouldn’t know about whatever the letter said unless it was addressed to them.

Get it?
If not, then phooey. That was hard to explain.

A note to everyone before joining: If you want to join, it is MANDATORY that you read the entire previous thread to understand what the story is about. Then, pick a character and introduce them into the story in a logical way.

Alice – what do you think we should say at the meeting? How are we to talk to Tutankhbastet, who is the equivalent of Saruman in LOTR? (at least that’s how I see him. Anyone agree?)

Cool! So here’s a quick summary, more for my own enjoyment than any necessity:

Tut is threatening to kill everyone in New York City. Rhoda and Luna are on their way to stop him.
Merle and Miriam are in Venice, where the Evil One is.
Dallas has been destroyed.

Everyone except the aforementioned five characters are in the underground Tree Home.

1- Wow, never thought of it that way. The letter form dulls my noticing any already-done plot twists, and PC’s writing style is very different from Tolkein’s. (What a revelation!) But he is, isn’t he? Tut wants us to reveal ourselves so that the Evil One can get rid of us, but I, at least, am already revealed. And you are already dead. Do those things mean we have the upper hand? I still don’t know what we’re going to say. But I am going to try to bring Tut back to the good side, which I do by concentrating REALLY hard.

Graph of current and not-at-all current characters

CURRENT and ACTIVE

Tutankhbastet = Not an Empowered, I don’t think. Currently on the wrong side. (Prarilius Canix)

Lysor = Also not an Empowered. An old friend of Tut’s. (Shadowkat)

Luna = Moonchild = Sensing other Empowered and, with practice, using their own powers against them. A ghost. (Purple Panda)

Merle Linwood = Birdwatcher (e~a, is that right? You never got back to me on that.) = Speaking with birds, flying. (e~a)

Hedge = Duskwolf = A werewolf. (hedgehogboy5)

John Doe = Nightwarrior = The ability to be invisible in darkness, to knock out or kill people with only a touch, and instinctive expertise with weapons. (E2MB)

John Smithsonian = Oldseeker = Knowledge of buried and hidden things, heightened senses, and strange, unpredictable, yet always accurate visions. (Koko du Pelle)

Rubea Hawken = Jewelhawk = Affecting people with a touch (“zapping”) (Traggle)

Miriam = Soulsinger = I’m not sure, and I’m too lazy to go back and check. Refresh my memory, Cinnamoon? (Cinnamon Moon)

Hanjjvar = Raventamer = Almost the same as Merle. (Lord Ragevuire)

Rhoda = Elderseventh = Making something the opposite of what it is. (Alice)

INACTIVE

Maria Grace Green = Greenspeaker = Can speak to any animal or human, out loud or telepathically, and has the power of suggestion. (Green Qween)

Fenn Brown = Not an Empowered. Originally he was going to be haunted by Luna, but it didn’t turn out. (Vendavel)

DOESN”T NEED TO BE ACTIVE

fAZE = Not an Empowered. A mysterious person who sends mysterious messages that only Tutankhbastet can read.

NPCs

Edal = Hedge’s friend.

Well, that was fun.

4- merle isn’t birdwatcher. She didn’t know she could speak with birds until recently. It surprised her and startled her a bit. I mean, wouldn’t you be startled if a bird suddenly spoke to you? She walks on the winds through our world and others. I’d call her Windwalker but she’d rather be called Merle.

Yes we should plot and yes Tut is like Saruman. (did you know that “saurons” is a legitimate French congugation. I think it means we will know.)

4-Lsyor has a minor Seeking power, though…she can find people according to a certain “invisible” signal they give off…each person has a different one…it’s kinda weird…but that’s how she ended up in the Void: she was trying to find Tut, and she found him, and tried to get to him, and couldn’t, because, little did she know, she was trying to go through a barrier…see?

7-I want to go, too! It would be the perfect plot twist for Tut to actually see Lsyor, and have a little flashback, of sorts, or something…anyway, can I/Lsyor go?

Ack…sorry for the double post. I forgot to write something…

Dear All Empowered,
We need your help getting people out of New York City. We now have a large underground network of tunnels made by the worms and groundhogs. We have a gigantic city made for them, underground, where they can stay until we come to terms with Tutankhbastet. We need help getting all of the people underground, though, so everyone will need to help.
–Luna

Dear Rhoda,
Come to the Chrysler building. I am here, but I cannot find Tutankhbastet. I sense a trap, though I am not afraid, as I cannot be trapped. After he put the block on me last time, I figured out how to repel such traps, and I can just dissolve through them. We are evacuating NYC, but I’m not sure if we can get them all out in time. We must negociate with Tutankhbastet.
–Luna

14- I think someone will have to write a letter to someone after the meeting, rather than during. We can play the whole thing out, and then someone can write a letter to someone else recounting the meeting and everything we did. Because it’d be ridiculous to write letters while we’re in the same room.

We should also come up with a title for this. Something that would sound cooler than “Role-Playing Writing.” Any ideas?

Dear all Empowered,
I am helping the population of New York acheive the order necessary to get them all into the underground home. I will head to the Chryseler Building as soon as possible. We will try to discuss terms with Tut and Rhoda will try to turn him back to the good side. As Tut will do everything we he can to kill everyone in New York if we don’t reveal ourselves, we will endanger over a million lives if we stay under the Veil (Those of us that aren’t out from it already)

Beavo the Great

in June 5th, 2007 @ 19:23

So far as I see it, Tut is on the ‘wrong side’ and is trying to do something (blow up, maybe?) to NYC and is currently in the Chryseler Building. Rhoda is with him. The Empowered guys are trying to evacuate NYC through underground tunnels, and convert Tut back to the ‘good side’ to boot. Is that all right for a start?

0

33

Alice

in June 5th, 2007 @ 19:35

32- Well, it’s okay, but there’s a lot more to it. For example, we have a bigger goal than converting Tut, and there are lots of different personalities, and lots of us are in different places. I think that if you’re wondering about something you can ask, and we can kind of guide your letters (correct, not dictate) for a while, until you get it fully. But you still need to have a really good way to introduce your character, and you all (you and agagabagabag, so far) need to give lots of back information.

Also, NYC is not going to be blown up. Foxfire (one of Tut’s minions – or is he a minion of the Evil One? Clarification, PC?) has surrounded the whole city in green flame, and I imagine that he’s just goping to burn the place up if we (the Empowered) don’t come out of the Veil, which is a magic thing that keeps us hidden from the Evil One until we use our powers. So far Rhoda (also known as Elderseventh, played by me) is the only one that has come out of the Veil.
Now go read the first several posts of the first thread until you know all the characters. Or is that being cruel?

*A NOTE TO EVERYONE WANTING TO JOIN*

This isn’t like an RRR, where you can just jump in anytime, etc. Every character plays a critical role in the story-line, so if you don’t introduce your character well, or understand everything, it will ruin the whole thing. So please, before joining, read the previous thread. Personally, I think it is essential to read the entire thing, but if you read a lot of it and think you’ve got it, you can give a summary and make sure you don’t miss anything. I don’t think any of us are trying to be mean here, but if you don’t know what’s going on and you jump in, everything could go haywire. You should know who all of the characters are, and what role they play (because you will be writing letters to them).

But I just got a new idea: If two new characters want to team up and write letters to each other, you can start a new sub-plot or something. But still, you need to understand what is going on.

Did that seem to mean? I didn’t mean it to…

agagabagabag, you need to give lots more information if you’re really going to do this. For one thing, you, not being at the tree home, would not have received the letter to the Empowered, and would therefore not be coming to the Chrysler Building. We need to know who your correspondents are, where you come from, what is your background, etc. Same goes for you, Beavo. And you also need to read the previous thread.

Seems like we’re going to spend most of our time talking about the conditions of new people joining. PC, what were the terms you wanted to discuss, exactly?

50- I will reveal that when you get here.
Foxfire is one of my minions. Even though you guys are more powerful than he is, he’s much more experienced, so there’s no way you’ll get through the wall.
Let’s start the talk. I lifted my shield so that Lsyor can find me.
“Ah, Hedge. How’s your friend doing? On the verge of death, I presume. Or would be, had Jewelhawk not intervened. How does it make you feel to know that below that facade of civilization, you’re a bloodthirsty freak?
And Luna. You won’t be around much longer. The Crystal has already cracked. Once it splits in half, the Empowered’s disembodied souls will be sucked across to Otherlife.
Elderseventh, if you try any of your switching tricks on me, I’ll signal Foxfire, and he’ll create such a massive tremor that that warren of tunnels beneath New York will collapse.”
I avoid Lsyor’s eyes, and don’t speak to her.
“Now, let’s get down to business. Are you willing to join me?”

We have protection underground, with dirt, and there is nothing you can do to break that protection. We are safe from all evil. And we’re not underground, you say? Well that does not stop us from coming prepared.” I pull out a bag of dirt, and give some dirt to everyone at the meeting. “But anyway, Tutankhbastet, what did you want to talk about?”

And speaking of which, Luna, the Crystal is the very essence of earth. If it breaks, ground loses its ultimate protection, and the Empowered will no longer linger on Earth as ghosts, but be pulled to Otherlife like the rest of humanity.

I laugh at Tutankhbastet. “Oh, please, Tutankhbastet. You undersestimate the power of the Empowered. Evil has its powers, and so does good. All of nature has taken our side, and they are much stronger than you think. You cannot collapse the tunnels: magic protects them, and it is stonger than you could ever imagine. Now, almost the entire city of New York is in these tunnels, and they are being trained to fight evil. All you are doing is breeding a larger army – for your opponents. And you alone do not have the power to destroy the crystal. We have the lightning bugs currently working on repairs, but why would you want the Crystal destroyed? You would die as well. What is going on here?”

PraCan – let’s wait until Alice comes and posts something before too much happens. I don’t want her to miss anything crucial…

40-I don’t think you’re being mean, I understand what you and Alice are saying. I had a primative blog kind of like this thread and people kept coming in and saying “Hi! My name is George of the Jungle and I’m the master of flying zombie monkies” and join the story. It eventually became a completely random series of events.

Dangit, it did it again. I only have one more thing to say.

I’m reading all the new posts as the story progresses. I suggest every week or so I give a short summary of what’s happining from my standpoint and Alice & Friends can correct me if I’m wrong about something, but not dictate. Actually, it’s kind of fun trying to figure out what’s happining. It’s like reading a sequel without reading the first book.

I hesitate. For a moment, I seem about to speak to Lsyor, then I turn away.
“It is you who underestimate us, Moonchild. I may not have the power to destroy the Crystal alone, but I’m not alone. Three of the Eight Worlds have fallen under the sway of the Corrupt Empowered, and a fourth is heavily embattled. I lead only the advance force for the conquest of Earth. If we conquer four, we will be equal to the so-called Pure Empowered. But that point is moot, since Elderseventh is now on my side.
Ah, Nightwarrior. You’re too late. One of the most powerful in your ranks has come to see my point of view. Elderseventh! Repeat after me: I swear by the Hand of Set and Loki’s Flame that I will faithfully serve Tutankhbastet and the Evil One until my soul is extinguished.”

I look out the window to see that New York is no longer surrounded, due to the fact that Foxfire is dead, and let out an Egyptian curse.

Technicalities aren’t a very big part of this, but it’s implausible that they would let a fourteen-year-old girl go overseas with money sent by a total stranger, so naturally he had to run away. This is the note she left pinned on her pillow:

Dear Mom, Dad, and all the kids,
It’s very, very important that I go to America, much more important than you could comprehend. Therefore I am going, with or without your blessing. Don’t worry, I’m sure that I’ll be fine. I have friends there that will make sure no harm comes to me.

The windows are suddenly filled with a view of dirt and rocks. Rhoda, Luna and I are catapulted through the floor and out into a very strange place. It appears to be a cave with a high, domed ceiling, and clouds floating past the ceiling. The people who were in the underground tunnels are now sprawled on the floor. “Excellent, Elderseventh. If the Empowered can get out of that, I’ll begin to respect them. Let me explain what’s happened. In the meantime, we’re fleeing to the Sahara Desert.” I begin digging at the wall of the cave to make a tunnel. Immediately after I enter the tunnel, gravity seems to switch around, and I land on the ceiling. “Come, Elderseventh, Moonchild. There is now a massive dome of earth and rock encasing the buildings of New York City, and a huge cave below it, containing everything that used to be underground. Gravity has switched in both those places.
Now, I’ll tell you my plan…”

I agree with you. I’m not sure how we can help though. I still think that we should stay here, and try and find the Evil One. I sensed some presence of evil when I was walking past a small tourist shop. I went inside, and found a very creepy atmosphere. No one was there at all, and no one outside the building seemed to see it. I think that the evil one might be here.

Dear everyone in the Tree Home,
I apologize for the change of scenery. I had to switch earth and sky to show Tutankhbastet that I really was on his side. I have pretended to give in, and have sworn to his service, but I think that it will be easier to bring him back from this side than that. Luna has done the same. Lysor has gone back to Planet X. She does not want to be a part of this, I do not think. But she is an Empowered! We must get her back.
– Rhoda

Dear Lysor,
I am sorry to have led you to believe that I was under Tutankhbastet’s grip. There was nothing else I could do, but I assure you, it was all a ruse – almost. I have indeed sworn myself to the service of Tutankhbastet, but I have not sworn to do the bidding of the Evil One, and soon Tutankhbastet will back on our side, if all goes well. Please return! We need all of the Empowered, are you are one of them. I know it pains you to see Tutankhbastet this way, but soon he will be converted; then will you return?

I’m sorry I could not make it to NYC before negotiations started. After I did make it there, Hedge’s friend said he had a plan, and left me, and I left the city to go to an undiclosed locatioin where I could meditate, and hone my killing skills. If I could hear from everyone to know that they are safe and know whther I am needed, that would be good.

I doubt we’re going to be able to switch around Tutankhbastet, because it seems like PraCan is liking his evilness. PraCan, are you ever going to be good again, or should us Empowered people keep trying? I have the feeling his end will be just like Saruman’s end in LOTR. That is, if he keeps being bad.

Dear Rhoda,
What should we do now? I have been floating around thinking for some time, but I don’t know what to do. I do not understand why Tutankhbastet wants to crack the crystal – it would kill him too!
–Luna

Dear Hedge,
Could you train the Empowered? Help them with their powers. I have the feeling a big war may go on soon.

116- I am enjoying being evil. As soon as there’s a big, climactic battle, though, I’ll switch over. That will be the most dramatic and narratively satisfying moment.
And cracking the Crystal wouldn’t kill me, because I have a corporeal body, and only disembodied spirits and ghosts (like Luna) will be sucked across to Otherlife. And I’m immortal, so I won’t become a ghost unless someone kills me, which is close to impossible now that I have two of the most potent Empowered on my side. Or so I think.

Master,
We have reached the ancient shrine to Set, your embodiment in our last attempt to conquer Egypt. The Corrupt Empowered there are:
Drakesinger, who can transform sound into heat and light
Sunsnuffer, who can create utter darkness
Madspin, who breaks minds
Lightfinger, the greatest thief in history
Flyworm, who controls insects
But Foxfire’s spirit is not here, as it should be, and that worries me.
We will go to the Moon immediately. Moonchild will be able to deceive the Man into revealing the Crystal, and then Elderseventh, Drakesinger and I will break it.
Tutankhbastet
Note: The spirit of Foxfire, knowing that he will be destroyed if the Crystal breaks, has gone over to the good side again. One of the Empowered should meet him and write about it.

Dear Luna,
Would it? Is he Empowered? We don’t know. He could be merely a courier of sorts, to tell of us our mission. Or the Evil One could have promised to spare him, with or without the intention of actually doing so.

The Crystal is the moon. It was originally in the Earth’s crust, but Empowered from Planet X steered a planetesimal into Earth while it was still molten. The Crystal was blown out, along with a lot of debris, which eventually settled on the Crystal and cooled. The resulting celestial body began orbiting Earth, and the Empowered animated its rocky crust. If magic touches the Moon’s surface, the face (the man in the moon) will come to life. An Empowered can convince the face to reveal the Crystal. The crust will then crack and fall off, revealing a massive dodecahedral topaz. This is the Crystal.

I’m replying to Lysor’s letter to Rhoda.

Dear Lysor,
We too are going to find the Crystal. It is in the Moon, and if we really succeed in getting it out – Tutankhbastet would think of it as success, at least, but I have no desire to destroy the Moon – I am worried what will happen to Hedge. All his power comes from the Moon. And Luna. She must be called Moonchild for some reason.
I am sorry for what is happening to X. It is grave news. If we defeat the Evil One and restore the Crystal, everything will go back to normal – I hope. If a prophecy is made that says we will win in the end, will it come true? Or can it be changed at the last moment? I am worried.

I will help you in any way I can to find the Crystal and destroy the Evil One. I hope that the Crystal can reverse the damage that has happened on both our worlds. Now is the time for me to use my secret weapon. It is a willow bow that was made by one of my ancestors in the Middle Ages. It also comes with special arrows that are tipped with a deadly poison and will burst into flame if lit. I am sure this will be useful should we have to fight Tut for the Crystal. Please tell me if any other Empowered agree to help us.

137-Lol…now, don’t do anything just to rush the story, boy-with-the-same-birthday-as-me…make it logical, and put limits on yourself…otherwise no one will like what you do, because it will seem so far-fetched…look at Superman. He was indestructible, and, therefore, boring.

140- Maybe there should be something that stops you from getting on the moon, or else when you get on the moon the opposite happens and you get really weak, or something, because that would be boring if you got all powerful. And you never said that you were on Tut’s side, so you wouldn’t be coming, would you?

Yes. We are going to the Moon to retrieve the Crystal, which I gather is actually inside the Moon. Tutankhbastet plans to break the Moon, I know, but if we do, what will happen to you? And what of Luna’s name, Moonchild? Do you think she would be affected if the Moon broke? Or could it be that you get your power not from the Moon, but from the Crystal, inside the Moon?

Re:The cystal
[Insert description of caverns here] I will wait for you in the caverns. I am sorry to hear that X is being taken over as well. Do you know where the Crystal is? If I am correct it is on the moon. We’ll figure out how to get there when we meet. I don’t know where Rhoda is, so please contact her for me. Ask her the whereabouts of the crystal, as I am not sure it is actually on the moon. Ask her where she is, too. And there is something she, and everyone, barring Tut of course, should know. I have met a “corrupt” Empowered named Foxfire- they should reckognize the name. He surrounded NYC with a wall of flame-as a matter of fact, that’s his power- creating flame. He can also extinguish his flame, or any fire, but there is no other way to quench his flame. It was startling when he made himself visible. After he introduced himself, I tried to run away, but he surrounded me with a wall of flame that trapped me in place. He filled me in on everything that had happened that I missed, including his own conversion to good, and what happened at the meeting in the Chryseler Building. I was shocked to discover that Rhoda had apparently turned evil. I have to stop now, as I have the feeling I’m being watched. Over.

That might help me be able to keep it away from Tutankhbastet…I’m not sure. Maybe it has some shield around it that he doesn’t know about. What do you think?

Merle,
I will right to Rhoda, as she may know of someone who is free. I realise that we are in a bad postion here though. The greatest danger may be here, but there are only two of us! In my last letter, I mentioned that no one else seemed to see the shop. Perhaps this means something? Since you have seen it too, maybe only empowered and those working for the evil one can see it? I’m afraid that I don’t really know what is going on in America or where ever else the empowered may be right now. I am assuming that we both recieve the letters sent to “All Empowered”, but there hasn’t been one in a long time. It is also possible that some have been lost somehow, as we don’t have the best of connections to the others. If we recieve no answer from Rhoda within a couple days, then we will plan our next move. Agreed?
Miriam.

Rhoda,
I and Merle Linwood are in Venice at the moment. We have sensed the presense of the evil one, and believe that if we can weaken him, it will go easier for you with Tutankhbaset. Do you know of anyone who can aid us in this task? Our powers may not be enough. Mine are only of the soul, and are generally healing. I don’t know if I can use them for attack. Merle’s are with birds. If no one can aid us, then we will try alone, but I warn you, this may not be good. I am a spirit of sorts. I was snatched from my life in Egypt years ago, and have remained suspended in time. I have not aged since then, and I am only about thirteen. I don’t know Merle’s age. Do not expect much of us.
Miriam.

Can I just say, I might be affected if the crystal cracks. I’m not sure. I’ll see what works out best later.

– Rhoda

Dear All Empowered,
Where is everyone? By that I mean, who is where? If possible, someone should go to Venice to help two of the Empowered, Merle Linwood and Miriam. The Evil One is there, and they cannot defeat it by themselves.

Dear Rhoda,
Acccording to Foxfire, you have (apparently) joined Tut. Is this true, or are you just faking? I was told (by Foxfire) that you seemed hesitant to swear alleigence to Tut, and you left out the Evil One. I enclose a printed out copy of a message I sent to Lsyor. (Comment 150) Do not let Tut see it. I, meanwhile, do not know whether to join Merle and Miriam in Venice, or to join you and Luna in Egypt. I think I will go to Venice untill I get your reply, and then I will join you in Egypt. I am worried that I won’t be much help in battle, as I don’t seem to be able to attack with my powers. Please tell the truth about your REAL side in your reply.

By all means, stay in Venice! I believe they may need your help. I intend to go there as soon as I am done with this business of the Crystal.
I am glad Foxfire has come over to our side, but I worry. It is hard to trust someone who converted so quickly and conveniently. Watch him closely.

Rhoda and Luna are in Egypt with Tut, and pretending to be on his side, but aren’t really. Their goal is to reach the Moon and destroy the Crystal, which will destroy us all. Merle and Miriam and I are in Venice, as I have joined them. Neither of them is in the same hotel as I am, as I thought we would be safer seperate, so I made sure they weren’t in the hotel I checked into.

The Empowered were divided when the tratiors left us, now I need to know, which side are you on? Meet me in Ireland if you will join me.
Rubea

Dan, ( the good empowered can also read this if necessary),
It has been a long time since I’ve been able to write to you instead of calling you. For once, I know this letter will not be intercepted.You know what’s going on with the Crystal, Tut, Rhoda and Luna. I know that Rhoda and Luna are not actually helping Tut, but I don’t think their plan will work. I don not think Tut can be turned back to our side. I am heading back home and I have asked the other good Empowered to join me. We will come up with a plan, I’m sure, and we will stop Tut in any way we can. You are welcome to join us if you want to.

I am still on your side, but I am in Egypt and cannot come to Ireland yet. I do not think that we should fight Tutankhbastet, at least not until I have tried one more time to turn him back. Let me try once more, and if that fails, then you may fight him. I know you are bitter about Codi, but Tutankhbastet was under the spell of the Evil One when he killed him. I am not sure if we can fulfill the prophecy without Tutankhbastet, or you, and if you fight and one of you is killed, none of us will survive for long. Please, PLEASE, don’t do anything rash, Rubea.

169 (Alice) – I meant that some MuseBloggers who had important characters haven’t been here for awhile. But it seems to be okay.

Dear Rubea, (And All Other Empowered):
Fighting Tut will not work. He has too much power, and many of the good Empowered are too unexperienced to survive. They, along with you, must be trained before any fighting can be done. And still, that is the last resort. We must use our powers of thought and logic to defeat them, not violence. We will not let him destroy the Crystal. I have been working on mending it during the past few days, and he has not even noticed. Since I am a ghost I can slip away occasionally unnoticed, and I have already manded a significant part of the crack in the Crystal. I have a stong connection with it, so that helps me fix it, and will give me strong powers when he tries to destroy it. Do not go to Ireland. Stay safe, in the underground tunnels in America. If you must, have the worms and other underground animals make you some caves and tunnels in Ireland, but do not go anywhere above ground. You will weaken the veil and be in much greater danger.

Hedge, if you’re a werewolf, do you only transform in the full moon? Because if you do, you have got to stop transforming so much. There are only twelve full moons in a year, you know, and this thing ought to span a good deal less than a year. Maybe after you got the hang of it, you could transform at will?

I am coming through my Mirror, now, to find you. As soon as I do, we’ll all head for the moon…we will have to wait until night-time, though, so that I can see it…I’ve never been there…. Anyway, please be ready when I come. Thank you!

Dear Miriam and Mr. Smithsonian,

We ought to discuss our abilities and what we are likely to be able to accomplish. I have the ability to walk on winds through worlds and occasionaly talk to birds however I’m not sure how this would transfer to fighting. What are your abilities? What do you propose we do? Should we ask for more help?

Dear Empowered,
It is amazing up here. The earth is so tiny and far away, and everything is a luminous white. We bounce when me move even slightly. It is great fun, or would be, if there weren’t more pressing matters, namely, the Crystal. And that strange matter of food – lack of it. No one else seems to need to eat. I do, but there is no food up here. Ah well. Soon we will be down on earth again.
Looking at the earth from up here, I can see a strange haze around Europe, probably near Italy. Is it the Evil One?

Dear Moonchild,
Drakesinger has made us a small base about five miles from where you are. Speak to the Moon now, and ask it to reveal the Crystal. Our base will descend into the crack, and we will continue to widen it.

Dear Rhoda,
Tutankhbastet has just asked me to begin speaking to the moon. I have been speaking to it a lot lately – and it has seemed to be quite responsive. If all has gone as I have asked, the crack in the crystal is almost completely healed. There is no way Tutankhbastet can get to the crystal without me, and only me, opening up the moon for him. If I do not “succeed” in revealing the crystal, there is absolutely no way he can get it. He can’t blow it up or use any destructive force, because if the crystal is not revealed, there is nothing that can break the moon’s protective barrier. It will also be extremely difficult for him to destroy the crystal if there is no crack. Perhaps I will reveal the crystal when the crack is completely closed, then it will be almost impossible to destroy it. Then we can bring up the other Empowered, and destroy Tutankhbastet – or at least threaten to, because he would be one against at least 10 or so.

I can get into peoples minds with a song, and normally heal them. I could try and sing something harmful and destructive, but I really don’t think that that would work. I’m only going to be of help after the fighting, because I can heal the injured. I’m sorry. I think that we need to get more help.

Dear Merle,
In Tut’s words, my powers are “knowledge of buried and hidden things, and striange, unpredictable, but alwayd accurate visions.” I won’t be much help fighting Tut. I don’t think that would be a good idea, anyway, because Tut is very powerful, and has the corrupt Empowered on his side. We would be doomed.

Dear Tutankhbastet,
Unfortunately for you, I never made an oath. You made Rhoda take an oath, but you somehow forgot to bind me as well. The crystal is completely healed now, and without me it will be almost impossible for you to access the crystal. I have now made myself a spirit, and have evaporated back to Earth. There is no way you can hurt me, because I, along with all the rest of the Empowered, are shielded with such a strong force, that you alone cannot break it. You’ll just have to find another way to destroy the Earth. Good-bye, Tutankhbastet, I hope to see you on the good side soon.
–Luna

PraCan — just a note – this has nothing to do with Alice/Rhoda, so don’t think she is “good” too. She didn’t make the decision to reveal her good-ness to you, and I don’t want my actions to alter her ideas for her character. Oh, and about the Oath – it’s completely true. I don’t know how, but you never made me take an oath like Alice. Correct me if I’m wrong…

Dear Rhoda,
Tutankhbastet caught me healing the crystal, but I was in luck. I completely healed the crystal, and put a special charm on it so it is nearly impossible to break. He is probably going to try and find another way to destroy the Earth, so keep a good ear, and eye, out for his plans. I created a strong shield which is now draped over all the Empowered, and I am now in semi-hiding. I never made an oath with Tutankhbastet, so I am free to go, but I urge you to keep following in his poisonous footsteps. I don’t know what will happen if you break your oath, but I do not think it will be good.
Best of luck, Rhoda!
–Luna

Dear Luna,
Somehow, up here on the Moon, I have not tried to switch Tutankhbastet. Perhaps it is because he is well-protected, or perhaps there is some other reason, but whatever the reason, I have not yet tried. I am not sure that I can anymore, for the Moon is sapping my strength. I hope that we go back down soon, as it is, I don’t know what I would do if Tutankhbastet discovered that I was not truly on his side. I certainly wouldn’t be able to use my powers in this state. I couldn’t break my oath if I tried, even in a good situation, which this is not. It is very strong, despite the fact that I left out the Evil One. One bonus is this: Tutankhbastet cannot use my powers for evil.

Very good. I applaud your resourcefulness. As such, I will attempt to find a way to preserve your spirit when you shatter the Crystal. Don’t act so surprised. You’ll see things my way soon.
Tutankhbastet.
Rhoda-
Switch Moonchild.
Tutankhbastet.

Guys- Maybe I’m biased, but it seems like you’re making this way too easy for yourselves. There’s no suspense in a story unless the villain (me) is foiled when he’s inches away from succeeding (about to crack the Crystal.) Sorry if the previous two sentences sounded rude, but I hope you’ll consider my opinion.

Ohh. “Shielded with such a strong force that you alone cannot break it.” I’ll just have to call in reinforcements, then, won’t I.
Master,
It is imperative that I receive backup immediately. Moonchild is more powerful than I thought. Fortunately, Elderseventh is even more so, and is switching her.
Tutankhbastet
Luna-
I know you will find this letter, as it is tied to a chunk of moon rock which will draw you to it. Elderseventh is trying to switch you as you read this. She will probably fail. Your power, hers, her oath, and her conscience will all pull in opposite directions on her psyche. Have you ever seen a soul shatter? Like impossibly bright shards of glass pouring out of the chest. It’s extraordinarily painful, and more than that, the fragments of her spirit won’t be able to reach Otherlife. They’ll just drift around as ghosts of agony for eternity.
If you have even a scrap of friendship for Rhoda, I suggest you reconsider your position.
Tutankhbastet

227- Hmm, maybe you’re right. I don’t want the story to be over quickly, which is good, because, I just made myself unable to disobey you, and therefore I have to switch Luna. Unfortunately (or fortunately), because my power is severely depleted, I can’t switch Luna without nearly killing myself. And I think that maybe I will forget the trees and how necessary they are to me, and that will make it hard for everyone, but especially me.

228 (PraCan) – I said “alone,” because I figured that was what you’ll do. I didn’t want you to be foiled too easily, but I do want to go back down to Earth and help the others. So I fixed the problem – for the moment – and gave you an opportunity to make another. Is that okay?

Dear Rhoda,
Why do I feel so weak? I have made it down to Earth, but ever since I disobeyed Tutankhbastet, I feel like I have no strength. With my power waning, I fear the Crystal’s safety. Please tell Tutankhbastet I am sorry, and contact the other Empowered.
I am ever so tired…my thoughts are blurring…everything seems so faint and far away.

Dear Luna,
Tutankhbastet has asked me to switch you. I don’t want to switch you, but I cannot go against the oath. Apparently I have a strong connection with trees, ((Yeah, I forgot about the trees. This is fun, though.))and Tutankhbastet has given me a forest here. It is enough to restore my powers, but I still cannot resist the oath. I tried. I failed painfully. I do not want to explain the details, but as I am writing these words, it is resisting the oath and prolonging the dreadful deed, and it hurts. I can’t write much longer. I am so sorry, Luna, both for you – you will soon be switched – and me – I will be without an ally. But I can’t help it. I am sorry.
-Rhoda

How are we going to get out of this one? Someone should say whether or not it worked pretty soon. If it didn’t, I have ideas. If it did, I still have ideas.

So basically, something is very wrong with Luna, Rhoda is totally powerless against Tutankhbastet and about to be shattered into hundreds of ghosts of agony, the rest of the Empowered are clueless as to these desperate plights, and Tutankhbastet is gaining the upper hand in general. This is definitely more fun than anything that’s happened so far.

Is Luna’s problem because she disobeyed Tut? They’re slightly conflicting, my pain from resisting the oath, and her tiredness at disobeying Tut. Maybe it’s a different sort of spell. Perhaps Tut is trying to hinder her in whatever she would do in the service of the good?

I think it might be fun to go evil. But I don’t know. I wouldn’t want to be evil for very long if I was at all. But remember how you couldn’t switch Tutankhbastet? That reason might be the same reason why you can’t switch me, if you don’t want to switch me. I’ll let you decide whatever you want to do. If you want to switch me, just let me know when I’m switched, and I’ll switch. PraCan, what do you think?

I can switch you, which will lead to the downfall of the Eight Worlds, and live (for a little while), or I could not switch you, and die, leading to the downfall of the Eight Worlds. Or I could fail to switch you, die in agony, the Empowered could go through a complicated ritual to bring me back to life or at least to the sort of life that Luna has.

Yeah. Well, I’m going to a party, so please don’t do anything crucial without me.

238- I think that you should switch, but before you do, warn the other Empowered. Elderseventh’s soul will shatter, and you will begin to crack the Crystal, but the rest of the Empowered will attack the Moon. A huge battle between Pure and Corrupt Empowered will ensue. Jewelhawk or some other healer will put Elderseventh’s soul back together, the faint remnant of good in me will telepathically order Elderseventh’s ghost to switch me back, and Moonchild and I will switch and heal the Crystal just as it is about to split in half.
Suspenseful climax, anyone?

Purple Panda

Okay. I’ll switch, and before I do, I will tell the Empowered that I am doing so. Elderseventh will, essentially, die, but she will still be in the story, right? (I don’t want to make Alice leave the story, so maybe she can have some sort of being other than her soul. Oh! Maybe, the trees [I guess, Jewelhawk too?] collect her shattered soul and mend it, and Rhoda becomes a tree. Then, in that form, she can still do stuff. I don’t know. It depends on how soon and in what form Alice wants to be in the story. Alice?) So during the battle, I’ll be bad, but then just when Tut and I are going to crack the crystal, Elderseventh turns us back and we’re all happy. Then all we have to do is destroy the Evil One. Okay, I think I get it.

Sounds good! Let’s wait for Alice…

Right! I’d rather be a ghost than a tree, merely because a ghost is more mobile, but being a tree would be cool too. Maybe I can be made a ghost, but the trees put so much of them into me that I have several tree-ish traits. But maybe that’s too much. This is going to be so much fun . . . I think I’m going to enjoy dying. I can make it very dramatic. Wait, no I can’t. Someone else will have to make it dramatic for me, or at least convey a sense of drama, without dramatic wording, because I will be DEAD.

Anyway, see you in the morning.

I (or someone else, if they want,) will write a letter to Tutankhbastet, or ‘master,’ describing how your soul shattered. Then, maybe, the trees and Jewelhawk can put your soul back together, but you won’t take the form as a tree…you’ll just be a regular old ghost-type-thing, just like Luna.

This is going to be fun!!

Dear all Empowered,
I fear this may be the last letter I send you while in a good state of mind. Rhoda is bound to Tutankhbastet by an oath, and she is forced to do his bidding. He ordered her to turn me evil, so I am afraid there is nothing I can do. Her power, combined with Tutankhbastet’s, is too strong for me to handle. While switching me, her soul will shatter. It does not look good. So in a few hours I will be evil, and she will be dead. I am sending this letter to warn you of me, because I will no longer be able to be trusted. Do not listen to anything I say. Rhoda’s death will break her bond with Tutankhbastet, so if any of you can gather some trees and combine your magic, you may be able to put her soul back together. Empowered, this is a call for help. You must heal Rhoda, and stop me from destroying the Crystal. Please save her so she can change me and Tutankhbastet.
Good luck, and farewell
–Luna

Or else we could just slow it waaaaay down, because Luna is an absolutely essential character, and we can’t do anything without her, really. I mean, the Empowered on earth can still do stuff, but it’ll be a lot slower since we can’t switch Luna till you’re back. Rubea and Miriam could find and heal Rhoda, I guess.

If she has, I will maybe write another letter to one of my ex-correspondents(My brother Jim and my friemd Mike Smith) and tell them about it. Or send a letter to another Empowered, prefrebly one on the moon. I know that Luna is bad, and Rhoda is dead. And Tut is bad. So theirs no one on the moon except evil peiople and a dead body. Hmmm. So Luna will be out of the story from June 20th to July 4th. Hmmm… Luna is an essential charecter, so we will have to pause it, or at least make it miove rellly slow. Ooooh, a solution.

It seems kind of weird for me to be writing lots of letters in a row, so I’m going to wait for someone else to write something before I do again.

Some of the Empowered need to write letters to each other saying that they have put Rhoda back together, so Alice can participate in the story again.

And I don’t think I’ll have internet access in Mexico. If I do, I would be EXTREMELY lucky, and I would probably have to pay a lot of money for it. So it doesn’t look good…

I have been itching to edit this for ages. Now I can finally get around to it, so long as I don’t forget how like last time. (Well, actually, I did forget how I was going to make all the full moons work.) Don’t worry, I won’t touch anything from the characters, just add dates, capitalize things, check spelling, and occasionally cut or add something from one of my letters. I may also post a letter on here, along with something i want explained, and the Museblogger that has control of that character can explain. Also, I am going to make that business letter to Hedge look more business-y. Hedgehogboy, please give me the last names of Edal and Hedge? Please?

Wow. This thing been around for four months story-time.

Month 1

Many letters are written, a few people discover their Empowered status.

Month 2.

Most everyone goes to Dallas, Tut goes bad. Miriam and Merle are in Venice.

Month 3.

Dallas is destroyed, we move to New York, we confer with Tut.

Month 4.

We go to the moon, those of us that do. I die, and Luna goes bad.

Luna is bad, I am dead, John Doe is in some strange predicament that none of know of because we can’t read his posts (and besides E2MB is on vacation) Lsyor isn’t writing right now, Hedge is in Egypt, and everyone else is in Venice.

301- You have to have a last name, yes. How about Hedge Atwoods? And Edal Sparks. It works. But one thing this thing has is problems. For example, if the hospital is sending letters to Hedge, who is a thirteen-year-old orphan who lives in the woods, they must know about him, and one thing I’ve learned is that if a kid lives all alone and a grown-up knows about it, they aren’t too happy.

But I guess they don’t have to know that he’s a kid, or that he lives all alone.

She also gives virtual choklit to everyone still here, and wishes them the best of luck in their writing. Ciao!

302: atwoods sounds good. Hedge lives with his mad uncle. His uncle lives in the attic of his house. Hedge fakes calls from his uncle and letters from his uncle to make people think he is iin perfect health. Hedge knows nothing of his uncle’s doings in the attic.

i have an idea and if you agree i want you to say that here. I think Hedge’s uncle should be a human Watcher like the ones in Marvel. He knows nearly eveything, and knows about the profecie and everything. But being a mere human, the burden of knowing so much has turned him partly mad though his mind is sane. He mumbles a lot.

To: All Empowered (who are still good)
Re: Rhoda
-My friends, I would first like to apologize for my prolonged absence from Earth, but I was…detained…on my home planet. Secondly, it has come to my attention that Rhoda’s soul has been shattered, and Luna, poor girl, has gone to the Evil (Good twist, by the way, you guys! I wasn’t here for it.). I tell you now that I’m going to stick it through to the end, this time, no matter what happens. Right now, I’m going to pick up Merle, Miriam, John Smithsonian, and, I believe, Rubea, and take them to the moon, where we will meet up with the rest of you. Until then, may Lady Luck be with you!-

Lsyor arrives in the View-of-the-Lagoon Hotel via her mirror. Miriam shows her a picture of the Moon, and Lsyor says, “Alright, now, in order for this to work, everyone must hold each others’ hands and think of the Moon, and only the Moon, until we are through. Now, hold hands, and clear your mind of everything but the Moon.” She grabs Miriam’s hand, and the others join together. “Is everybody ready?” They nod, eyes closed. “Good…here we go!” Lsyor’s Mirror shows the Moon, and opens up to create a swirling vortex with the Silver Orb at the Center. Lsyor tugs on Miriam’s hand, and they all glide, ghost-like, through the Mirror. They are on the Moon.

Merle,
I and Rubea have reconstucted Rhoda’s soul. She is now walking this moon again. However, I fear that Tutankhbaset may soon learn of her revival. I think that is in the interests of us all for you, me and Rhoda to walk in the other world for a short time. If Tutankhbaset is unaware of our exsistance, then we have the chance of a surprise attack. I am going to take us their now, so we can be safe for a while. We can return if we are desperatly needed. I and Rhoda will see you in the other world.
Miriam.

Rhoda, is that Ok? You’re alive and with us in the other world. I really do think that this is best for now. Tut doesn’t know I exist, or Merle, and he thinks you are dead. It will be to our advantage.

Dear Empowered,
You cannot imagine how painful it is when your soul shatters. Such a deep pain! And it does not stop when your soul has shattered. It lingers on, though all consciousness has vanished. Do not swear an oath to Tutankhbastet! Speaking of the oath, I am unsure as to whether or not I am truly free of my dreadful binding promise. When I swore, I said that I would serve Tutankhbastet until my soul was extinguished. It was not extinguished; it was shattered. My present state does not show in mirrors, so I do not know whether the mark of my oath is still on my forehead.
But I cannot die again, and that in itself means a certain immunity to the oath. I do not think that I shall be controlled by Tutankhbastet anymore.
Where is everyone? What has been happening while I was dead? I have missed all the letters sent in my absence.
– Rhoda

Now we wait for Purple Panda.

So, I’ve read the thread, and thanks a million (times a zillion) for waiting for me! I guess we’re getting a new thread? I don’t think there is much for me to say right now, (Luna, I mean), so I’ll just re-read the thread a few times and think of something.

I know it’s a style, but when people write in fragments like this: “hel[po you guys but I don’t know Ifg I can beca,” it really takes away from the story. If you don’t have super strong feelings about writing like that, you could get your point across that you’re going fast, or whatever you’re trying to imply by writing like that, another way relatively easily. It just makes it really hard to read, and it’s unprofessional (not that we’re trying to be professional or anything, it just really takes away from the story)

Also, Alice – If you’re editing the story, and I’m editing the story…do you want to work together? (Well, I guess not really, but we could confer and such)

Me, Rhoda and Merle are in the other world, where we are learning to use our powers. I’ll write an actual letter now! In the otherworld, we are together, but a bit apart, and we can’t really speak to each other, so we pass notes.

Rhoda,
After much experimentation, I have discovered how to use my powers to their full. I always knew that I could get inside people’s minds and heal them a little with just the power of my mind, but I have found a more potent power. If I sing the right song, I can fully enter a being’s mind and do whatever I please with it. I can heal and sooth, but I also have powers that could be to our advantage. I can confuse minds, send beings to sleep, and even take full control of their bodies, and mark them permently with me essence, which controls their mind, even when I am not in them. This last takes much effort though, and I will only use it if it is truly needed. I am not alive physically any more, but I fear that it would kill my soul. I would not be able to return to any form of life, except a wind, or breeze. I will sing this song, however, if it is to defeat the evil one, or one of his minions, if destroying this evil while help the empowered and the world.
Miriam

In the big climatic battle I will die forever. I want to. It doesn’t make sense for us all to come out alive. Maybe I will use it before the battle to destroy one of the evil one’s most powerful allies. How about, I confront Madspin, and destroy him. Oh! I’ve got it. Is it ok with everybody if Madspin comes to the other world, because he is the only corrupt empowered besides Luna who can do that, and tries to destroy us, because the evil one has tracked Rhoda? I defeat him, and soon the battle begins. Someone else defeats the main people.

Ok? If no one disagrees, we can describe it tommorow, before anyone else goes away. I’m not trying to make myself seem like a hero or anything by volunteering to die, I just really feel like dying. One of the more powerful empowered can defeat tut and the evil one.

Rhoda,
I was walking today when I saw a terrible sight. Madspin, the only corrupt empowered besides Luna who can walk the worlds has been sent by Tutankhbaset to destroy us! I believe he has tracked you. There is only one option left to us. I must enter his body and destroy him. However, I am afraid that this will completely destroy my soul. I will not see you again. Beware of Luna.
Goodbye, my friend. I will watch you.
Miriam.

W00t! I’m dead! W00t! Now someone probably needs to write a letter saying how I’m dead.

Hanjjvar wants attention. I therefore suggest he does something about his predicament and gets to know some Empowered, because the only person who knows about him is Hedge, who is in Egypt as a wolf. In fact, most everyone is in some far-away place, and no one but Hanjjvar is in New York. (Maybe Rubea, but I don’t think so.) Also, if you starve we will be forced to take you out of the story altogether, because you would have played no part. Soooooooooo . . . DO something! Use your power to escape! I don’t know! But you haven’t played a very big part, and very few people know about you.

I think that if it is needed hedge can sacrifice his body to let out the wolf to destroy a large evil or something.

Hedge Atwoods,
It pains me with every stroke of my pen as i write this, I am not supposed to interfere. But I feel that if I do not intervene there is no hope. You have an amazing strength inside you, as do I. You are even stronger than me as you can somewhat control that strength. You have all the strength of the anchient egyptian god, Wepwawet tucked inside you. Alas, I fear that the sheer strength of Wepwawet would destroy your human form forever if you tried to use it all. But i feel that you can help greatly in the destroying of the Evil one. I cannot sign. Goodbye.

Alice

So who exactly wants to stay alive? Cinnamoon and Hedge both want to die. Does anyone want to still be alive at the end of this?

I’ll decide whether or not to die in the end when some people have answered. I’d rather live, honestly, but if everyone decides to kill off their characters, it would be no good to have Rhoda standing at the edge of the battlefield, ghostly and not technically alive, but more alive than everyone else.

Dear Miriam,
I hope against hope it will not come to that. If it does, then there is nothing to be done. I believe that all of us could kill ourselves with our powers, and you at least could accomplish a great deed with it. But in the meantime, be careful! Even here the Evil One can not be far away. Luna would know, were she still on our side.
-Rhoda

I would write to Hanjjvar, but I’m not sure if Rhoda knows of his existence.

384: I dont exactly want to die, but Hedge might have to. And Hedge if he did do that he would just become a sortof spirit, who could transform into a wolf form at times. He just wouldnt have a human body unless a body was made for him.
Should hedges uncle be empowered? If he is, maybe something like NightWatcher?

380- O.k. That’s fine. Maybe we should have a dramatic buildup where tut somehow discovers you, sends someone to re-destroy you, which means that we all have to fight in a big climatic battle, and I can die then?

Sorry. I just really want to die. I don’t mind living if a lot of other people want to die though.

Maybe we just shouldn’t plan when we should die, or if we will, and just let the story take its course? No one really planned that Luna would go evil and Rhoda would die, did they?

Ok. My conclusion is that if the time seems right for me to die, then I will.

That alright with everyone?

Whoa that was WEIRD! Canix was gone one moment, and back the next! Coincidence? I THINK NOT! (Whatever, Alice.)

Okay, quick update. Miriam and Rhoda briefly talked about their powers being able to kill them, Hanjjvar got out from his underground prison, and Hedge’s uncle wrote him a letter saying that he (Hedge) had great power that could destroy the Evil One. We discussed dying, because it seems that Cinnamoon wants Miriam to die, and Hedgehogboy wants Hedge to die.

Master,
The Crystal has cracked, with the aid of Moonchild. Now its eldritch outer shield has been permeated, we can destroy it through more conventional means. May I suggest flinging it into a small star?
The bad news: The Empowered seem to be figuring out their abilities, even the ones I concealed from them. Stormwatcher has realized his ability to create golems. They seem to be rallying for a final assault. My Empowered will probably be able to defeat them, but we must take all precautions. I strongly recommend sending me Kanjal.
