Egypt. I want to see the valley of the kings, and the tomb of Nefertari at the valley of the queens, and the temples at Deir el-Bahari. Not sure it will ever happen, because I am a brit of extreeeeeeemely celtic extraction and cannot handle temperature above 20c, but I can dream.

Fayanya's watch had ended a couple of hours before dawn, but she'd been having trouble sleeping lately. Even after all these years, there was still something unnatural about sleeping under stone, and every once in a while she'd have a spell like this, where it was downright suffocating. And so...

Breq'Anya The Breq'Anya plains are a region of savannah brush and grassland in the Eastlands of Terra, situated at the feet of the mountain ranges of the Northlands. The warm, wet winds blowing in from the east and south hit the northern mountains and are pushed upwards to a great altitude...

@Tiko Thanks for all the setting work! I have a character outline posted now. Please let me know if I need to fix anything (I took a few liberties with the description of the Breq'Anya culture, but I think I've kept it setting appropriate and open enough to be adapted for whatever comes from...

Fayanya Appearance Fayanya is a little over six feet tall, with dark brown skin and black hair; short cropped in a soldier's cut. She has green eyes and customarily wears the Varnathian military uniform. She has a small scar above her top lip, and a longer scar on her stomach which is usually...

Welcome! See you in the medieval fantasy section.

I can work with that!

Any of the other players starting in Varnathus, if you want to message me for a little more character info or to brainstorm possible future rp interactions, feel free to pm. I have most of a character sheet worked out and just need to iron out some details once the Varnathus nation info is up...

Loving it all so far- thanks for all the work you're doing setting everything up.

Goddammit Fayanya you got some splaining to do.

Granted, you are now terrible at tennis. I wish Stargate SG-1 was still on TV.

Hi all, I hadn't got around to posting here yet but I'll also be joining. My character was taken from her nomadic people to be raised as a diplomatic hostage in the capital of an expansionist, xenophobic nation on the rise. She was indoctrinated and enlisted into their military but is starting...

Granted! Behold Jon Fishman sitting on a gossip magazine cradling Anish Kapoor. I wish for a shorter commute.

Welcome from a fellow newbie, and abig thumbs up for bulbasaur.

I've never been good enough at video games for competitive games like smash, hope you're having fun though!

Oof, night shifts are rough at the best of times! This is definitely a time that calls for some movie and gaming marathons. What games have you been playing? I bought a switch back in November- my first console since I was a kid. I've been playing loads of stardew valley to try and relax myself.

Haha! Between caffeine and being busy I manage to stay awake. I'm out like a light when I get home though. I used to spend a lot of time at the British museum- closed, and an irresponsible train ride away. I was learning to read heiroglyphs from an online lecture series, but I don't have the...

Totally a fair position to have. Work should pay. My job is in a service that supports other employees rather than patients, and is a job that exists in the private sector just as frequently as in the public sector- I could 100% find the same job in an easier environment for 2-3k more per year...

I don't want to paint the wrong picture- my manager's been great through all of it, and is generally great at making sure people get their time off and reorganising workloads in a fair way. These are just the measures of an emergency service reacting to deal with a global pandemic. At the end of...

They haven't taken away anyone's holiday time- so we theoretically still have it all to use. But no one's actually able to take any time off for the foreseeable. Will be interesting to see what happens later in the year, when everyone's trying to use a full year's worth of holiday time (since we...
