Curious about the state of the Witcher RP scene on Tumblr. Are things relatively friendly? Decent amount of activity? I'm considering reviving my Gaunter muse.

I’ve only just returned myself but things look to be still as friendly as it was when i was active a year ago. Everyone’s welcoming and friendly and I’ve never had or seen any problems within the community.Activity however can be a bit slow at times. I know there are quite a few people around that are very active but I’m not too sure on the variety of characters around. 

Off the top of my head there’s 3, maybe 4 active Geralts, A Triss, A Lambert, Eskel, maybe 2 Dettlaffs, 2 Regis’ (including myself) and of course all of the fantastic OCs that’re around! I’m probably missing tons but there’s definitely people around.

A Gaunter would be really awesome though and i hope you decide to revive him! I know he’ll definitely be welcomed with open arms.

A warm breeze rustled leaves and sent sweetly scented flowers falling gently from the trees above rolled from the lake like gentle waves and the sound of happy townsfolk drifted down from festivities on the terrace above, completing the beautiful scenery of the flower filled streets. Like many cities, the city of Beauclair celebrated the coming of spring wholeheartedly in their own charming way and made the city seem even more fantastical. 

The vampire sat well away from the loud, jostling festivities on one of the carefully carved stone benches that lined a terrace overlooking the lake. The sun had just dipped beyond the mountains, draping a darkness over the city that was lit with millions of twinkling stars that the lake mirrored almost perfectly. It almost felt like a completely different place to the Beauclair he had visited all those years ago with Geralt and his company of wayward adventurers, but it still felt just as beautiful and evocative. Now here he was -- although now lacking a hansa -- assisting his dear old friend Geralt to once again find someone. Oh how history could repeat itself in ways you would never expect.

▤ = falling asleep on them :3

The vampire had almost dozed off himself when he realised a head had come to rest on his shoulder, sound asleep. He straightened, shifting ever so slightly as to not disturb the other quite yet. He knew the face as one of the many townsfolk he’d become familiar with, Torvald if he recalled correctly. 

It came almost as a surprise seeing one so comfortable in his presence to not only fall asleep but to fall asleep on him as well. A stark difference to the distrust shown when his true nature is found out.

“ Torvald..., ”  He pressed with a gentle tone while shifting again to try and rouse the other,  “ It might be best for you to return home Torvald, It’s starting to get quite late and I’m sure your bed will be much more comfortable than my shoulder. ”

Milva had just set about changing the blood-soaked makeshift dressing around the poet’s head when she felt a hand on her shoulder and smelled the familiar scent of wormwood, aniseed and other herbs. Regis, as was his custom, had appeared unexpectedly, out of thin air.   —  Baptism of Fire  |  IND. Emiel Regis of The Witcher Series.

Something I wanted to touch on that is in no way, shape or form part of my rules or something I’m going to govern in any way, are the fandoms I’m familiar with. Or rather the ones I’m not familiar with... Often times I find myself encountering blogs that look great but I have no idea what their muse is from. Because of this it sometimes takes me a little longer to follow back while I’m getting my bearings and figuring out who the muse is. This is nothing personal, I’m just not that familiar with a lot of fandoms. If you feel like I’m taking a while to follow back, don’t panic, it usually takes me a few days to a week to do so anyway.

Anyhoo, some fandoms I’m not familiar with are D.ark Souls, S.kyrim/E.lder Scrolls (though I do know a very little bit), D.ragon Age and W.oW. There are more but these ones I tend to see most often.

“We’re not alone in here.”

                                                                   PARANORMAL SITUATIONS

The room in which they stood smelt almost sickeningly of dust and decaying books, only a single torch lighting the small alcoves filled with delicate and aged tomes, it casting an unnatural blue hue from it’s magical flame. Even with the solitary flame the ruins they had found themselves in had an ancient chill about them. Every stone echoed when stood upon, every breath resounded and every crevasse seemed to have never had eyes set upon it until now in the empty, long forgotten elven ruins.

The unmistakable feeling of eyes stalking their movements from an unseen place made the hairs on the back of Regis’ neck stand on end, making him unable to shake the fact that they were, in fact, not alone.  “ We may have unintentionally stumbled upon the lair of some beast… ” 

An uneasy shift of weight sent another quiet echo bouncing off the delicately carved stone, the vampire’s hands wringing around the strap of his satchel as keen eyes surveyed the dark hidden corners of the room for their unseen watcher. Although their task was – in his eyes – quite dire it was not so much so that he would risk serious injury acquiring a simple book if another, simpler option was attainable.  “ Perhaps we should let it be and return later with more light… ”
