New to Giralda, I see. Well, it takes all sorts around here. Take that shifty-eyed weasel by the fire.
Oh, he acts looks like a simple merchant, peddling meager wares, but watch what you say around him. The Empire’s got ears everywhere...
See those two there? They seem all chummy now, but that’s only because Var is trying to convince Jarek to desert the navy in Thisbē and join
those lawless bastards who sail from the Spice Isles. I’m sure that one will kill the other before the week is out, once they’ve got what they want from each other.
Then there’s always the usual mercs; bastards who’d happily kill their own mothers for a coin. Oh, they say those twins from Brelan aren’t so bad,
but a merc is a merc, and money is all they see.
At least there're no damned elves here tonight. One got uppity last month when I insisted the
bastard slept in the stables. A damn generous offer for a half-breed, if you ask me!
Mind yourself if you head into the Wilds. It’s full of things that
would happily eat you and shit you out without a second thought. Even the people who hunt those things are more beast than civil.
Anyway stranger,
what'll it be: a room, or a drink?

CURRENT MONTH: AUREL, 762
This month marks the transition from the scorching sun of summer to the cooling of autumn. The night skies become more magnificent as shooting stars are more frequent, and auroras dance across the horizon. Aurel is a time of harvest when the farmers gather the crops that cannot withstand the upcoming heavy rains of Nandir.
December 2023 Soft hiatus - have a safe, warm, and minimally dysfunctional holiday season!
October 2023 Site month change! New threads (unless set in the past, future, or an AU) should be dated "Aurel 762". See the Information tab for a description of the month. Characters in the Temple Crew should be mindful of the continuity of possible injuries, connections made, relationship changes, increase in wealth, etc. as much as possible as this is set after the campaign.
June 2023 Happy Pride! 🌈

There are some updates for Noria's post-earthquake progress and info on a major in-game holiday at the end of Sondu - this can be celebrated anywhere on the map but the 'main' event will be held in Thisbē.
December 2021 Soft hiatus - have a safe, warm, and minimally dysfunctional holiday season!

starin' down a long, empty hall! pictures on walls all with your name, but it's not the same...! lookin' for the chord i can't hear! been searchin' for years! it's somewhere inside, but it's well disguised...!
forever is a long time, they say! and maybe someday, i'll meet you there if you've time to spare...! so tell me, then, where i can go where they won't know who i have been! and can we start again?
so after all these one-night-stands, you’ve ended up with heart in hand. a child alone, on your own, retreating. regretful for the things you’re not and all the dreams you haven’t got. without a home, a heart of stone lies bleeding. and for all the roads you followed, and for all you did not find, and for all the dreams you had to leave behind: i am the way. i am the light. i am the dark inside the night. i hear your hopes, i feel your dreams, and in the dark, i hear your screams. don’t turn away! just take my hand! and when you make your final stand, i’ll be right there. i’ll never leave. all i ask of you is: believe.
your childhood eyes were so intense while bartering your innocence for bits of string, grown-up wings you needed! but when you had to add them up, you found that they were not enough to get you in, pay for sins repeated! and for all the years you borrowed! and for all the tears you cried! and for all the fears you had to keep inside! yeah! i am the way! i am the light! i am the dark inside the night! i hear your hopes, i feel your dreams! and in the dark, i hear your screams! don’t turn away! just take my hand! and when you make your final stand, i’ll be right there! i’ll never leave! all i ask of you is: believe! yeah!
“i never wanted to know, never wanted to see! i wasted my time ‘til time wasted me! never wanted to go, always wanted to stay ‘cause the person i am are the parts that i play! so i plot and i plan! hope and i scheme to the lure of the night filled with unfinished dreams! and i’m holding on tight to a world gone astray as they charge me for years i can’t pay! yeah!” i am the way! i am the light! i am the dark inside the night! i hear your hopes! i feel your dreams! and in the dark, i hear your screams! don’t turn away! just take my hand! and when you make your final stand, i’ll be right there - i’ll never leave! all i ask of you is: believe.

small blurb about your character? or lyrics, really whatever works best. scrolls if you write enough.
FRIENDS
they told me to run, but just how far? can I go wearing the black mask of fear? the hate in my eyes always gives me away, the tension building slowly. now i've lost everything i had in you. nothing we shared means a thing without you close to me. i can't live without you. breaking the silence of the night - can't you hear me screaming? lookin' for you in the neon lights. why don't you answer me?
ENEMIES
there's no direction to my stare, no more flame burning in my heart anymore. quiet, i keep it to myself until the sun sets slowly. i hear your voice in the evening rain calling, "nothing will keep us apart, no more lies and fear. there's no end to our story." breaking the silence of the night - can't you hear me screaming? lookin' for you in the neon lights. why don't you answer? i could make all the wrong seem right if you were by my side. i'd gather all the tears you've cried and hide them deep underground.
LOVERS
can't look back, it's just a waste of time. can't erase this hate from my eyes. breaking the silence of the night - through the streets i'm screaming. looking for you in the neon lights - why won't you answer me? breaking the silence with my cries - can't you hear me screaming? we could make all this wrong seem right, but you'll never answer me. you'll never answer me.
SHARP AS STEEL. STOP FOR NO MAN. YOU'D BETTER BEG AND KNEEL.
whipcrack stings the sky. don't mess with me - i'm danger, the meanest one alive. earthquake breaks the richer scale. the more that you resist, the more the pain you'll feel. i'm blazin' onto glory, there's thunder in my veins, and nothing stands before. forever i'll remain hard as iron! sharp as steel! stop for no man! you better beg and kneel!
untouched, cold as ice. i'll turn your blood to water. strangle in my vice. shock waves - bones to dust. you're messin' with a minefield, so expect the worst! i'm blazin' onto glory, there's thunder in my veins, and nothing stands before. forever i'll remain hard as iron! sharp as steel! stop for no man! you better beg and kneel!
as i destroy, last thing you'll hear my cry is victory, is victory! i'm blazin' onto glory, there's thunder in my veins, and nothing stands before. forever i'll remain hard as iron! sharp as steel! stop for no man! you better beg and kneel! hard as iron! sharp as steel! stop for no man! hard as iron! sharp as steel! you'd better beg and kneel!

Your life is always the post of something else. Where is the precedent in the way that you present yourself? And it's disgusting how little you try – the existential equivalent of pink eye. Drink alone and watch TV. You're expecting harmonies to tap your tune with silver spoons, the anthem of impending doom. Guiding Satan's steady hand, forcing Beatles to disband. It's eco-freaks and drama queens. The young at heart know what I mean. You could do better, you could do better, you could be the greatest man in the world. You could do better, you could do better, you could be the greatest man in the world. You could do better, better than that. You're a fraud. Thank gosh you learned to keep your shirt on. You could do better, you could do better, you could be the greatest man in the world.[break][break]
You burn so brightly, you burn so brightly in the dark. You burn so brightly. You burn so, you burn so – You could do better, you could do better, you could be the greatest man in the world. You could do better, you could do better, you could be the greatest man in the world. You could do better, better than that. You're a fraud. Thank gosh you learned to keep your shirt on. You could do better, you could do better, you could be the greatest man in the world. You could do better, you could do better, you could be the greatest man in the world. We could do better, we could do better, we could be the greatest band in the world.

Life is not a spark in space, an episode of Will & Grace. Controversial, yet mundane. Debra's messing with your brain. Even scientologists know there's more to all of this. Search the ruins for trap doors, wonder what you're put here for. Simple as a hint of gas, climbing nostrils as you pass, making Harvard graduates feel childish when they laugh at it. Climb the rungs to kingdom come. Sour patch to acid tongue. Are you opposed to having fun? You clench the world between your bun. You could do better, you could do better, you could be the greatest man in the world. You could do better, you could do better, you could be the greatest man in the world.[break][break]

this is, like, the second time i've revamped this template, and the last time, it didn't turn out as great as i had hoped, so we're gonna take a step back and make it a touch more like the template it was based on originally. that one was iconic. a shame that it doesn't work with nikki's new face claim very well. c': every time, though, i go same song, same lyrics. if i'd known hostage was gonna be the iconic song for this template, i would've picked a better one when i made it the first time. :/[break][break]
culture hostage: i'm writhing in the cold grasp of justice as she turns away, turns away. blind is she supposed to be, but someone took a razor to her mask. rusted, now, the scales you hold - their balance tipped by the weight of gold. when will it end? mm, yeah. when will it ever end? the judgment man holds my fate as i beg forgiveness with the plastic smile of a candidate. they take for granted that i'm out of my mind and i'm wasting their time to care, so all my reasons are doomed before they're heard. i'm held hostage by their words. what will lead us to tolerance if we don't question our prejudice?[break][break]
"courage" is such a lonely word. "patience. in time, these truths will be known." please don't keep looking away. you see, fortunes are on line, reputations at risk. and there's fear in the hearts of all of you that believe that you're right, that you're right - but are you right? the judgement man holds my fate! as i gaze around the room, their eyes are like knives: could decapitate. they take for granted that i'm out of my mind, and i'm wasting their time. don't show, don't show me my fate![break][break]
if i fall to pieces, they'll know. oh! as i sense my fate! and now, all my reasons are doomed before they're heard. i'm held hostage by their words. reasons doomed before they're heard. i'm held hostage by their words. reasons doomed before they're heard. i'm a hostage, i'm a hostage, i'm a hostage![break][break]
and then a bunch of notes can go here? gonna test short and long. and then... testing a lengthier note? hello, me: meet the real me and my misfit's way of life. a dark black past is my most prized possession. hindsight is always twenty-twenty, but looking back now, it's still a bit fuzzy. speak of mutually assured destruction? nice story! tell it to reader's digest! feeling paranoid. true enemy or false friend? anxiety's attacking me and my air is getting thin. i'm in trouble for the things i haven't got to yet. i'm chomping at the bit, and my palms are getting wet. sweating bullets!
[attr="class","dcfrelation"] RELATIONSHIP Drop dead legs, pretty smile – hurts my head, gets me wild. Dig that steam, giant butt, makes me scream.

When the night is through, will I still be loving you? Dig those moves, vampire, set me loose. Get it higher. Throw my rope, loop-de-loop. Nice white teeth, Betty Boop. Set it cool real heavy.

[attr="class","nikki109"]Coding at seven in the morning. I think I've done more Nikki templates with lyrics from Operation: Mindcrime II than Operation: Mindcrime I, which is... incredibly sad, actually. Goodness knows he doesn't need anymore, anyway.
Culture hostage. I’m writhing in the cold grasp of justice as she turns away, turns away. Blind is she supposed to be, but someone took a razor to her mask. Rusted now, the scales you hold; the balance tipped by the weight of gold. When will it end? When will it ever end? The judgement man holds my fate as I beg for forgiveness with the plastic smile of a candidate. They take for granted that I’m out of my mind, and I’m wasting their time to care, so all my reasons are doomed before they’re heard. I’m held hostage by their words. What will lead us to tolerance if we don’t question our prejudice?
“Courage” is such a lonely word. Patience. In time, these truths will be learned. Please don’t keep looking away. You see, fortunes are on line, reputations at risk, and there’s fear in the hearts of all of you who believe that you’re right, and that you’re right, but are you right? The judgement man holds my fate! As I gaze around the room, their eyes are like knives - could decapitate. They take for granted that I’m out of mind, and I’m wasting their time. Don’t show, don’t show me my fate!
If I fall to pieces, they’ll know! (He’s out of his mind and he’s wasting our time. We know.) Oh! As I sense my fate! (His reasons be doomed, can’t understand him.) And now all my reasons are doomed before they’re heard. I’m held hostage by their words. Reasons doomed before they’re heard. I’m held hostage by their words. Reasons doomed before they’re heard. I’m held hostage, I’m held hostage - I’m a hostage!
