Hey, and welcome to my rp-attic! I'm Seal, 25! I'm an avid homebrew RPer, as well as an amateur 3D sculptor. Here you'll witness my attempt to combine the two into an abomination of unequaled scale!

[rp-attic]

This is Orleena, a monk who is part of a team of frontier protectors and demon slayers. She favours a glaive and employs thrown weapons in a pinch. Like any monk, she is trained in the art of unarmed combat, but that is her last resort. Having the extra reach of a glaive is often the difference between life and death when faced with hordes of demons trying to break through the frontier and drown the civilized world in blood. In battle with reckless destroyers like that, every defender’s life is priceless. The onslaught never ends, but the forces of good are few and thinly spread. Orleena stems the tide.

This was meant to be done after a stalwart knight, Sir Glygan, but alas, whenever one does something, there is the danger of that thing being swallowed up by a black hole and disappearing :D

Trip 16

I journey ever deeper in the extramatter. While some trips are uneventful and others are an unrecognizable chaotic whirlpool, this particular one has been most enlightening, for I have observed a curious but immediately recognizable sight – a celestial being! Yes, many of the creatures I see are known to me, for I am a grandmaster and my knowledge is vast. Still, the circumstances of this viewing were quite perplexing.

Until now, my working hypothesis has been that the extramatter is in its essence a spatial and causal medium between realities, i.e. one may travel via it to a different place and an “alternate reality” [NB: hate the term, change to something clearer]. Well, that hypothesis has been cast aside thanks to this baffling discovery: the extramatter also acts as a temporal tunnel!* Fascinating!

Time, space, and reality change freely in the extramatter!

[NB: add later… “While my Matterportation** spell is quite robust, its animating substrate clearly is something I have never encountered, i.e. the spell’s control variable is not space, time, or reality… it is something completely alien to (me) the whole magical science! But I, Archmage Sylan Synnevere, shall study and describe it for the first time ever!]

In this trip I encountered a powerful celestial being (an angel, deva, or some such, depending on its own definition). On this occasion, I had decided to burn some vision incense to improve my insight. As I saw it (her), epiphany suddenly struck: her true name was Lilithor***. Normally, extramatter images move and change as I observe them. Lilithor, however, was frozen in time. My incense-fueled wisdom told me this: this was a viewing from the celestial’s past! A tremendous find! I should obtain more of this incense for future trips!

I do not know who this Lilithor is, but I received one last piece of wisdom before the viewing ended: the events that unfolded around her were grim. Perhaps in the future I will stumble upon more shreds of her story, or maybe even her own self, if she still exists…

* Here the Archmage seems to have been very excited, as these few words are underlined multiple times and, it seems, on multiple occasions.

** Unfortunately, the Matterportation spell itself is one of the bitter pieces of knowledge lost in the Great Burning of 5612. Losses like this are tragic. We thoroughly condemn all arsonists!

*** Here we share good news, we have searched the Academy’s archives thoroughly and identified this mysterious Lilithor as the fallen Archangel Lilith. The Archmage must have found a viewing of her from before her fall. Truly inspired findings, in our humble opinion!

DAY 1 OF NEW GRIMOIRE

After a long search, I, Archmage Sylan Synnevere, have found the perfect arcane host for my dangerous research notes into the nature of magic. If found, immediately stop reading and return to the same at:

Metlica Sq. 13,

Viyenne,

HOME,

c/o his descendants (if applicable).

IN CASE I FORGET:

searched into extramatter;

located outsider (calls itself “service provider”, but outsider type not in index);

[NB- this is simply unprof! buy new blue pages?!]

Incantation name: “tumbler”, reason unknown?;

to exit: leave extramatter by means of tether.

Amnesia is a real problem, Sylan, so I am writing these accounts for you (me) in case you one day mix up the potion reagents again or something else unpredictably forgettable happens. Remember: no one let us live that one down easily. I am currently continuing my studies of extramatter phenomena and have discovered a means of teleportation through it (coin the term ‘matterportation’ if I forget)* which allows me to both travel and look out of the windows, so to speak.

As I write these notes, I am preparing the ingredients for my second trip there.

Trip II

00:00 Everything is ready. The matterportation was successful and I am now viewing the extramatter from inside itself. I am so excited; my hands are shaking from all the hidden knowledge, waiting to be revealed and described in my notes!

00:15 In my excitement, I ran out of a significant portion of my stronger ingredients. No matter! This trip is already yielding many (so far undescribed) insights!

00:27 I see it! The first extramatter creature I am observing!  How exciting!!! Shape unclear and fuzzy, begin scanning. Looks humanoid and feminine.

[NB: extramatter had humanoids…? must research more]

00:29 Creature sneaking in unclear location / direction.

00:32 Creature interacting with other creatures. Cannot avert viewport to other creatures to confirm.

00:34 Lipsync through the fuzzy image, creature mouthing T, E, N, E, TH. Possible outsider designation?

00:35 BREAKTHROUGH! Creature has turned into another creature! New creature covered in thick fur and snarling!

[NB: spontaneous polymorphism possible in extramatter?!]

00:40 End trip. Viewport desynchronized, lost creature.

Excellent findings! I cannot wait to analyze everything! I am attaching a magicap of the whole event.

* Welcome, dear reader, to this work of historical significance. If you have read past the Archmage’s warnings, then you are as curious and as brave as us. Bravo! None of the original material has been changed, but we have taken the opportunity to add these explanatory notes at the bottom of the page for certain concepts, for the benefit of the reader. We hope you enjoy this as much as we have (and currently are, as the editing is a work in progress!).

In particular, the Archmage seems to have come up with an exotic term for the action of ‘movement’ or ‘transportation’, which is to carry or move an object through space.

** Here the A. seems to have forgotten to note this extremely interesting information. Believe us, we are eager to know as well!
