General Discussion / Another new host, eh?

« on: August 05, 2011, 01:06:41 PM »

I see that someone took the hosting off of Xorlak's hands and reopened site functions! Sweet.
You can point the old downloads to my server all you want. I offered to host the files with that in mind. I don't have to worry about bandwidth or anything, so you really don't need to download and host them all here if it's too big of a hassle.

Anyways, if hosting ever becomes a problem again, I'll host it for free.

//2nd post. Hope it's not too bad... heh.\

Floating. He could only feel a strange floating sensation. Then, a tingling feeling started creeping up his arms. In a matter of seconds, it was over….

Jareth opened his eyes, and found himself sitting on the cave floor. How did I end up here? He thought, looking around. The torch on the wall was lit.

“You…. *cough* did well. *cough* At least…. You still knew your… *cough* limits and sheathed the sword, boy… *cough*” Came a rough voice.

Jareth looked in the direction the sound came from. There, propped up against the cave wall, was Tysid. But something was wrong. He looked… different. Then he spotted it. There was a large gash across Tysid’s chest, and his left arm was disconnected, lying on the ground in front of him. Blood covered Tysid, and the floor around him. Light danced off of the crimson puddles, and the blood glowed faintly. I knew he wasn’t human. Jareth tried to stand and felt a sharp stab of pain in his left leg. Looking closer, he noticed he had a small cut across his leg. It must have been an intense battle.

“What happened, old man?” Jareth asked, using the cave wall behind him to help him stand.

“The power over whelmed you… *cough* this power… you must *cough* you must use it… under stand it… *cough* and you will find your past… and more. Leave me. You have passed my final test.” Tysid said, in a calm voice.

Suddenly there was a loud scraping sound. Cave dwellers. Grotesque things that are attracted to blood. The have small bodies, and skin made as tough as rock. Most are naked, and they all have very good sight in the dark. They eat anything that’s meat, alive or dead.

Jareth could tell Tysid was struggling with the pain. “I just can’t leave you here, to die! The cave dwellers will eat you!”

“GO!” Tysid’s voice boomed. Tysid reached out, chanting something like an incantation. The light flickered out. Jareth felt a pull, as was suddenly ripped backwards, in to the depths of the cave.

//Not sure if this is too long, or too short... but I'm posting it anyways.\

It was dark. Not the traditional dark, but a eerie dark. There was an uttermost lack of light in the cave, as was part of the training. Jareth did not think much of Tysid’s training methods, though he had to admit they worked.

He slowly backed away from the center of the room, at which he would guesstimate it at about 18’ wide, 20’ long and 7’ high. He felt the cold cave wall against his back, and started to circle around the room as quietly as possible. The sheathed Drayfear in his hands, he started to advance on his masters last known location.

Jareth had to win this. This was his final test. After this, he believed he would be ready- for finding his past. He heard something, off to his right side. He swung Drayfear with all his might in that direction, and was shaken by the impact on his master’s sword.

“Blast.” Jareth muttered under his breath.

“Come on, kid. If you want to defeat me, your going to have to do better then that!” Tysid said ferociously.

Jareth backed away, and feigned a downward swing, but changed and swung at Tysid’s feet. He knew his master could see well in the dark, so he was at a disadvantage. He just might have to…

“Unsheathe the sword, boy! Don’t fear its power. You must feel it in order to understand why I gave you that sword!” Tysid said, interrupting Jareth's thoughts.

That means I didn’t hit him. Jareth thought, taking 2 steps backwards.

“Alright, here it goes, old man!”

Jareth pulled the sword out of the sheath, taken aback by the dark metal of the long one edged sword. For a moment nothing happened, then he started to feel a power overwhelm him…

Hmm... I figure this shall be a entertaining pastime, so ill join you all.

I'm new, of course, so any tips shall be appreciated.

Character Biography:

Name: Jareth Droulard
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Specialization(s): Longsword Mastery, Minor Bladed (So everything bladed he is able to use, though not with major skill)
Age: 16
Job: None.
Weapon(s): Drayfear, a 68 inch sword with 50 inch blade. Held in a semi-sharp metal scabbard that can be used as a weapon. Hand guard is shaped in the form of a +, with a full tang handle wrapped in dark red cloth. Sword, hand guard, and scabbard made out of a strong unknown black metal. The name, Drayfear, is etched onto the sword blade in small lettering by the hand guard.
Alliance: None.
Description: 6 foot high, slender build with long white hair. Wearing a black robe overlaying a dark red shirt, and black pants, and black leather boots. Light blue eyes.
Biography: Jareth knows nothing about his past, except his name, up to December 3rd, 562 G. E. His first memory is waking up in a cave with a mysterious black cloaked being, who addressed himself as Tysid, and offered to help him regain his memories. From that day, Tysid and Jareth trained with bladed weapons, but focused mainly on longswords for reasons Jareth didn't know. Jareth became increasingly good at sword fighting, and Tysid rewarded him with a sword with "Drayfear" etched onto it. Tysid warned that the sword holds the power to recover his memories, and that "One should only unsheath the sword when the wielders life is in mortal danger."

Feel like I'm missing something, but i cant seem to find anything... (Heh)
I was wondering if "Longsword mastery" would be accepted, and if it isn't i can change it.
I was also wondering if i had to create a "profile" for Tysid, because he wont be around... long.
The continuation of the biography will take place in Chapter 13...

If theres anything i did wrong, feel free to point it out, as i am new. (As a matter of fact, feel free to beat me over the head with anything wrong...)
