Awaiting the Equinox.

I have returned, still alive, but changed. for the better, let us hope. It was truly a grand and fascinating experience seeing Scotland. tasting its wind and water. there is nothing on Earth like laying in the wild grass on top of Arthur's Seat, waiting for the break of dawn, with the wind so furious that you must be silent, you cannot hear your own thoughts, you must let go.

And I did. My God, it's been a while...

Will this mean that my artistic activity will become more visible? Heh, who knows. I do have many many many new ideas. 'At the Garden of Gethsemene' is still waiting for its sequel.

And so it is complete. I am away to Scotland for some time... for a new life, I hope. I am gone, leaving most of my mind's thoughts and all of my sordid perils behind but for one...
And who would have thought? It really is that story most weird, that has proved more true than anyone would have ever imagined... heh.
Let us hope... that the Circle keeps Turning.
Namaarie.

I know. Do you know? The strange feeling, once you've realised that your beloved work has finally got out of hand, taken it's own path and is now growing far beyond your reach? I know.

It's hard, quite sad, but in the end - that's how it's suppose to be. The work has now entered someone elses' life, entangled his heart and mind. I should be happy it has come so far. That's the meaning of art, I suppose...

It's just... oh, well... it just hurts a bit to know that from now on anything could happen to the work. To the plot. To the characters. To you.

And that is why... I'll soon submit the story we're writing with korowiow-agrest. So you all may have a go. And see for yourself.

Oh, bugger... I have a feeling my mind's overloaded. now it's all moved down to the heart. ]]> ~shadowfoock http://shadowfoock.deviantart.com/journal/8861328/ http://shadowfoock.deviantart.com/journal/8861328/ Wed, 24 May 2006 07:16:51 PDT

I am slowly coming back to all those stories, opened and never closed. I left them behind some years ago, but it seems they are to return... heh, how strange. Is it always that way - that the dream will always haunt the dreamer until it's fulfilled?

For ages now
I've often faced the fear
It's hard to see
Old memories are clouding my mind
It's beyond this life
I know the secrets are within me
Wonderin'
In a world of broken dreams
Depressed and haunting me
No way out
So many times it's hopeless dark and gray
No way out
And other times it's hope that saves the day

Many moments of my life I pray tomorrow
Inner peace will find its way and set me free

There's a light beyond the dark (darkest day)
There's a light beyond this life
And painful memories will all wash away
Painful memories will all wash away

No longer struggle with the fear of
The end and what's beyond
I live a life of loyalty
True to myself and my own

The way out
A sea of life so peaceful and serene
The way out
The path of life lies open wide for me

[chorus:]
Come join the path of glory
Leave all your fear behind
Come join the path of glory
Leave all your fear behind
Many moments of my life I pray tomorrow
Come join the path of glory
At last eternal peace will set me free

Come join the path of glory
Leave all your fear behind
Come join the path of glory
Release me set me free ]]> ~shadowfoock http://shadowfoock.deviantart.com/journal/8302775/ http://shadowfoock.deviantart.com/journal/8302775/ Wed, 29 Mar 2006 08:43:37 PST
Tagged! So, it has finally come to me as well. Everyone did it [I'm sure ], so don't look at me that way! XP

This is a response to ~korowiow-agrest who tagged me the day before. Ha, and you thought I wouldn't answer! Nah nah nah :>
But lo and behold! Here it is:


Basics

1)What's your character's name?

Vai the Kuruki - the first name is not to be identified with the famous guitarist Steve Vai. The name Kuruki was given to her by a Guild of high elves as a curse from their side - because Vai used to have some drow friends in the past and just wouldn't understand why ppl don't like them. Kuruki is ancient quenya for 'a sorcerer of foul, black magic, morgul'. But it is ought to be said that Vai has nothing to do in fact with morgul, as she is a warrior. But them bloody high elves are always nasty racists.

2)How old is he/she?
200 this year. But it would be about 18 for a human. Whatever, she is a VERY strange person, and with such people age does not really matter XP.

3)Is your OC a boy or girl?
Girl.

4)What's his/her race?
Genasi of Fire. A strange mixture between a humanoid and a fire elemental. I decided the father to be the elemental, for it seems easier to explain Vai's birth that way


Appearance

1)If this character were to suddenly become part of the 3D world, and ended up in a heavily-populated area, how many stares would he/she get?
Well, what would you do if you'd suddenly come across a 1,80m tall crimson-skinned, very well sculptured and muscled lady? ah, and a one with long shiny black hair, tenths of piercings, and fully white eyes, lit by an inner white fire.

2)Is your character considered normal in his/her own world?
Nooo way. Even in D&D [if I'm not currently playing in my own system of Europe in 1370], a genasi of fire is very uncommon, and by some considered being something like a demon]

3)What would be his/her most recognizable feature(s)?
Her crimson skin is enough recognizable, I guess XP. And maybe those spooky eyes ^^

4)Would you consider your OC as attractive?
Oh, yeah. She's a 'hot sexy mama', as Johnny Bravo would say. Certainly HOT ;]


Personality

1)Temper?
Very bad tempered. She is like half mad. She's not fully aware of how the social world functions, and - she couldn't really give a damn. Energetic, ADHD-syndrome, egoist, unpredictable.

2)Does your character ever get depressed?
She's too nutty to get depressed. Well, she was something close to 'sad' when she found her own favourite pub burnt down.

3)Leader or Follower?
Certainly leader. Though she's not aware of her own charisma.

4)What is the main aspect of his/her personality?
Fiery individualist XP.


History

1)Does your OC have a family of any sort? If so, are they still alive?
Oh no. No family: her mother was a witch, so she was burnt at the stake , father - is playing somewhere with some demons probably, in another world. Brothers, sisters she does not know of.

2)Is your character out on his/her own? If so, why?
Yes. Well, she escaped her old underground society of fire genasis who were slaves to the drows, and decided to live

3)Has he/she encountered any traumatizing events?
No. Vai is a person perfectly resistant to trauma. She is too mad to be hurt by anything, I guess.

4)What was probably the best time in his/her life so far?
Oh, this girl is having the time of her life every second She cherishes every single moment, and is having fun always, be it at a drinking pub party or in the middle of a terrible battle.


Romance

1)Single?
Yes.

2)Has your OC developed any romantic relationships?
No. Her temper is just too nasty, and - she couldn't care less for such grave serious things as love.

3)Virgin?
I don't think she ever thought of that XP

4)Does your character like flirting?
Yes. But it always looks the same: she, being very attractive though exotic-looking, gets lots of attention; she likes showing her pretty muscled body and playing the coquette, but just you wait till she answers his first question - it will be a... ]]> ~shadowfoock
