If some emergency comes up, then I imagine one of the other dwarf-friend wizards will be tapped to deal with it if we're out of the Karak at the time, but for any wizard business that can wait, why wouldn't they just wait?

Also, folks, we already voted for the relationship with Panoramia to be monogamous. I know a lot of people are just memeing, but the romance vote is behind us and was really unpleasant with how people got heated over it, to the point where Boney changed the entire structure of it to bring the lock-in point up much earlier than originally planned, because the thread couldn't behave itself.

- This is a bit more abrupt than I'd preferred the romance process to be, but it appears that on this matter a choice must be made between voter agency and thread civility.

So, like, maybe add joke tags to things? It would really suck to dredge up all that unpleasantness again.
 
Oh and voting is open. Splendid. See my previous post recycling Trump's statements for the more amusing reasoning, but for actual reasoning I'm interested in doing it so we combat chaos directly

So... I was talking early about how we can make wizards come because they, too, will be tempted by B O O K but then I realized… we do have a certain flying lizard that loves our library. Does anybody know if our dragon friend knows anything about waystones?

Then again the he seens to really hate elves so even if he does I don't know if he would participate…

Cython almost certainly knows nothing about waystones, and they are not fond of elves. We are unlikely to get Cython on board with this project. Hopefully, though, we will still have time to pursue our divine magic research on the side (I still dream of research half-actions; I wants them, precious), which we know they are interested in, and so we'll still get to have scenes with Best Dragon.

(sorry Deathfang, you are too much of a jock to be Best Dragon.)

Do you have a source on general elves dislike?, or is it just for Ulthuan elves as a carry on of his beef with their dragons.
Because the Eonir(and the Asari) feel very much like elder beings that do adapt to the world around them, with their connection to nature/mother earth/isha/ryha/whatever, and that might if not interest him then at least get a grudging acknowledgement.

The whole high elves and wood elves(murderous and non-murderous flavor included) feel rather similar to the great draconic rift.

and there is Radixashen who went 'native' which isha/ryha split or no split, is still rather similar to what the Eonir did, and I don't know if Cython consider his branch of the family as fools.
"Rhya isn't Isha," Deathfang repeats. "Draugnir joined with your Gods, but Radixashen joined with Rhya. I know not of Kurnous and Taal, but Rhya and Isha are two different beings."

Also remind me, which of the five ancient dragons led the wind aligned? Kalgalanos, Urmskaladrak? or if there was not one that led them there like Draugnir did to Ulthuan dragons, do we know which one Cython claim as his father/leader.

Edit: formating and whatnot.

Cython said we were fortunate not to be an elf. Some kind of personal dislike.

It might be just that Cython is referring to the Druchii, here.

But I wouldn't want to bet much on that.

Water folk could mean anything from pre split elves, to Druchii, and to Ulthuan, but is rather less applicable to the Eonir.
Of course that assume it is his way to refer to a particular group and not just a general catchphrase for the whole race.

Anyway not that it matter too much, because he can't help us with the project and his interaction with the Eonir isn't really a concern beyond the curiosity, but I would like to know what he would think of her newfound friends, and more so if they happen to have a forest dragon or two hiding in the bushes.

Edit: thanks for the quote search.
Edit2: would be funny if this is his only mention of them and it just mean that he express his annoyance at their needlessly complicated language.

    Look, she's just so wise)

    I like big books and I cannot lie
    You other wizards can't deny
    That when an elf walks in with an itty bitty waist
    And some knowledge in your face

    You get sprung
    Wanna pull up tough
    Cuz you notice that those books were stuffed
    Deep in the woods she's wearing
    I'm hooked and I can't stop staring

    Oh, Cadeath I wanna get with ya
    And take your scripture
    Witch Hunters tried to burn me
    But those books you got
    Makes (Me so learny)

    Ooh, text on sheepskin

    To hell with romancin'
    She's pled, read
    Got me reading in a dragon's head

    I'm tired of rabid priests
    Saying that books aren't the thing
    Take the average Magister and ask them that
    She gotta pack those stacks

    So, fellas! (Yeah), fellas (Yeah)
    Has your dryad got the books? (Hell yeah)
    Tell 'em to share em! (Share em) Share em, (Share em)

    And when I'm throwin out winds
    I just can't help myself
    I'm actin like an animal
    Now here's my scandal

    I wanna get waystones
    And ugh, puzzle-up, ugh, ugh
    I ain't talkin' bout dhar boy
    'Cause liber mortis is just a toy
    I want 'em real thick and juicy

    So find that juicy puzzle
    Mathilde's in trouble
    Beggin' for a place in them journals
    So I'm lookin' at forbidden tomes
    Knowledge I can't wait to take home

    You can have them Damsels
    I'll keep my novels like vamp skulls
    A word to the elf soul sistas, I wanna learn with ya
    I won't stop or ditch ya
    But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna
    read
    Til the break of dawn
    Eonir got it goin' on
    A lot of nords won't like this song
    'Cause them punks like to hit it and quit it
    And I'd rather stay and play

    'Cause I'm strong, I'll go long
    And I'm down to get the diction on
    So, kithband (Yeah), kithband (Yeah)

    So your Boris rolls with Ungol
    Needs some help dealing with snow trolls

    So they toss it and leave it
    And I pull up quick to retrieve it

    So Sigmar says "stop Mat"
    Well I ain't down with that
    'Cause your shelves are tall and your works are kickin'
    And I'm thinkin' bout stickin'

    To the sanitized words by the high priests
    You ain't it, Yorri
    Give me that lecture, some fresh conjecture
    Studying in your prefecture


    Some magister tried to object
    'Cause his words are in my project
    He had thoughts but he couldn't express em
    And I call up Max to redress 'em

    So elgi, if you've got all those tomes
    And you want some more waystones
    Dial 1-900-MATHILD
    I'll bring them ulgu thoughts
    Eonir got stacks

    Baby Got Back, by Sir Mixalot, or as adulterated by Jonathan Coulton if such is your preference.

    So you know how I said I was going to stick to easier stuff? Apparently I lied.

    • The one thing no one seems to be pointing out about Laurelorn that interests me is that we might be able to explore the Ranald Loec connection. If the Eonir have Shadowdancers that could be an incredibly interesting thing to look into.

    A few people mentioned it:

    Third, we have Laurelorn. They have a faith-related thing going on right now (the Ulric worship), as well as a crisis (the business with Nordland, the need for Waystones/trees), but not a crisis of faith. It's hard to see how we can start something here... until one looks back at all the posts comparing Loec and Ranald. The Eonir started Ulric worship based on a favorable comparison with their own King of the Gods, so what's one more? Well, Loec worshippers might be trouble or help, depending on the circumstances. Those opposed to the whole Ulric thing would probably oppose this as well. On the outsed, this is, of course, likely to increase tensions with the Sigmarites, since they don't quite approve of Ranald. Ulricans might be miffed as well, though less likely. Nordland, of course, is likely to deem it appropriate that the gold-and-silver-hoarding, village-destroying, clay-stealing elves have taken up worship of the god of criminals.

    One point in favor of Laurelorn not directly related to the project.
    We might be able to learn more about Loec, or elven gods in general.

    It's a nice perk, if we can swing it. But, like, that's not the main reason to vote Laurelorn.
