Ciraxis

"Relax...Fire...this isn't the first time I had...broke my ribs. Besides this is...nothing." said Squall to calm down Fire Walker. Indeed, while he spoke slowly his voice seemed stronger and he kept his cool. "I don't think that my lungs or diaphragm are pierced either. I could try to cast 'Lighten' on myself to reduce my weight but we don't have any tools to get me out without risiking dislocation." he pondered "And this is nothing really, I mean it. I weakend for a while because I am out of shape. This isn't the first time I broke my ribs...but it is certainly most embarassing one. I broke my two legs once, while hiking. I hanged on the moutain wall for two days before some pegasi spotted me." he smiled at the memory. Swift never feared death itself. What he did fear was failing somepony. And he will not fail his two new friends by worring them...too much. "Anyway...we will spent some time here I think. Good thing that we are in garden and there are plenty of twigs and these logs. Can you move them to the center? Thanks." he said and depite her protest lighted the wood with spellfire from his horn. After the while they had nice warm campfire...on the floor of the pit. Suddenly from over them was heard a familiar voice. "Young Master. Are you fine?" aksed Squllcoast family butler. "No worries Oak. I just broke some ribs. Can you get us some marshmallows?" unicorn asked in casual tone. "Marshmallows sir? What for?!" "Well I have a guest down here, and so it happens that that guest is a lady. It would be rude to leave the lady hungry don't you think?" ".....I will get this marshmallows Young Master." "Thank you." Swift said softly as the earth pony left. He then noticed that Fire Walker gave him bewildered look. "This may seem strange to you Fire but 'danger' is a kind of friend of mine. I never invite her tought." he said and tried to laugh but he rembered about his ribcage. Instead the slooowly layed on the ground. "Anyway..there is nothing to fear Fire...but I thank you for the concern. Most terrors are fear of the unknown. We fear the uncertain future, outcomes of our actions and what lays after death. To dissmiss this fear we ponies try to control as much of our surroundings as we can. We done this for so long that places like Everfree or Unyasi frighten us. But as I said it's only fear of the unknown." stallion explained in warm baritone and, stopped for the while and looked up. Princess Luna moon was already on the sky. "I never feared death as much as the feeling that my life will be wasted by making no impact or change. I thankfull that I meet Bubble. It' means that there is something out there. And he chosed to stay so it means that we had the freedom of choice. And I thankful that I meet you two at that trainstation." Squall said and smiled at her. Her coat and eyes were the same color of the embers of the flames that danced beetwen them. He was also somewhat...surprised. normaly he would feel somewhat embarassed by his lack of shades - he lost them while rolling down - but he didn't. This puzzled Swift a little. " I am sorry...I am thinkig to much sometimes. By the way...how you got to the army?" he asked suddenly, hoping that the question will make her forget about his injuries for the while. His toughts shifted to dunder for a moment. He wondered if the pegasi stallion got himself in this kinds of situations as often as himself. Squall also noticed that since they were at outskirts of Northtown getting any help will take him a while. Even more as there was already dark.

I can agree with Workshop and Academy but not with Sol Ring anymore. After showing up in FtV: Relics, and espacially in Commander it's not unusual to run into one these days. Heck I have 15 and each of my friends, compareble number. As I promised, Simic deck. Graft was such fun mechanic that it's the shame it didn't got much spotlight. Maybe it will be back eventually, like the Bloodthirst? (1)Birds of Paradise x4, Brainstorm x2, Training Grounds x3 (2)Coiling Oracle x3, Aquastrand Spider x2, Counterspell x2 (3)Cytoshape x2, Voidslime x2, Dosan, the Falling Leaf, Trygon Predator x3 (4)Garruk Wildspeaker x2, Tezzeret Gambit x2, Rite of Replication,Cytoplast Root-Kin x2, Cytoplast Manipulator x2, Viral Drake x2 (5)Tamiyo, the Moon Sage, Doubling Seson x2 (6)Jugan, the Rising Star, Vigor Lands: Novijen, Heart of Progress Pillar of the Paruns x2 Tropical Island x2 Breeding Pool x4 Simic Growth Chamber x2 Forest x5 Island x4 Works pretty good. I am still working on the sideboard and will welcome any suggestions. Any comments is also appreciated. In the next post - Devour decks. Expect to see Doubling Seson yet again.

Great, Shrinking Violet type. Of course he knew what was wrong. He was asked to observe her - even more fitting considering circumstances. "It is unusual but not because of you. All this complications comes from the accident when previous cargiver in Laboratory 11 managed to get himself eaten." Forest said with stone face but inside he smiled. That was not the accident - Touch just made it look like this. Some months ago he founded that his caregiver abused his dear creations to vent some frustration. So he planned how to take care for him for all this time, and voilà - problem solved. No suspicion went on Forest Touch. He was careful to not mention this caregiver and he engineered all of this perfectly so it was no wonder. "And because of this we are in need of new main caregiver. That means you that yes, you got yourself a promotion Norma. Of course I expect that you will do much good in our Lab. I heard that animals that are under you care have really low death rate. You will find that we really, really rarely do any experiments that other ones do. We use modified food and careful crossing to achive wanted characteristics. We also are the Lab that spent most time outside, finding how our creations fare being exposed to environment factors. So in the way - we responsible for both the first and last steps Simic creations take." Forest given her a while and moved his gaze back at Fungus. "I don't think they care about his demise that much Amongus. After all for Orzhov it's kind of...promotion." Unicorn shifted his attention yet again - this time to the Boros pony. "Which gives us the question. Did anypony tried to search for ghost of this merchant?"

Swift got out of the carriage - not without paying of course. It was really cold today, it reminded him about his two years in Stalliongrad. Squall quickly repressed the memory - he had a job to do. He gave a look to a impressive building of Museum of Fillydelphia. "Yes...place like that have much valuables for those who know what too look for." swordstallion thought. If he was to help REA he had to get some info. He walked around the building - he didn't had the choice really, it was surrounded by the red tape and whole place swarmed with REA soldiers and REIN agents. Many of those from Fillydelphia waved at him and greated Squall verbaly. Swift returned the greeting to anypony who did this. Durning his six months in the city he got to the good side of REA'ns here....well most of them. The ones from the Stalliongrad however - he reconized them thanks too distinctive emblem on their clothes - gazed at him with suspicion, but he ignored it. Swift finally founded what he was looking for, the carriage thet doubled as the mobile office. Behind it stood some tables and chairs - snow around them was gone, propably thanks to heat crystal that was in the middle. At the time only one pegasus mare was sitting there and writing something with her wings, one glance at them could tell that they were extremely flexible. She stopped for the moment and yawned. Mare's coat had color of amber and her short,golden mane covered one of her eyes. "Hello Morning, you sleepy head." unicorn greeted his friend. "Oh, Squall..it's you." said the Morning Tide. Tone of her voice reavealled that she was happy to see him, but at the same time, tired. "To tell the truth I didn't had much sleep today. Wait. That actually not true, I didn't have ANY sleep at all...in last 36 hours? "It's pretty obvious. These are the biggest eye bags I ever saw on the mare. What happend?" unicorn asked with concern. " Well I got night shift yesterday..and busy night it was. Some hooligans painted the train at The Hub and some other trouble makers made ruckus in Central Park...oh and some griffon demolished restaurant in Uptown but to his defence, I would too if I had too wait two hours for meal, got wrong one and cold too boot. Where was I? Oh yes. Rusty nail asked me to swich with him so I stayed after sunrise too, lot's of paperwork I tell you. And then JUST when I got to bed some good for nothing decied to rob MoF. I swear to Celestia...<muble,muble>" Swift listened to the tirade patiently. Morning Tide was huge whiner, especially when she had lack of sleep. Yet he interrupted her when the muttering become unreconizeble. "Err...Tide?" "Oh..sorry Squall. That's all becose lack off sleep. I could give a wing for the cup of coffie. But enough about that. What brings you here? The usual I bet?" "You bet right. I heard from Oak about the trouble you all had and decided to help." swordstallion paused for a moment..."Any details so far?" "You want to sniff inside for yourself? I don't have much info to give you. Three items were stolen. They are part of Three Tribes Era Exibition, borrowed from Canterlot Museum of High Arcana and on tour around Equestria. Exibition was supposed to open tommorow.Thats all knowlage I got you have to find it for yourself." "I see...will you help me slip it?" "You have to ask? All REA in Fillydelphia owns you for this coats and jackets." he turned her head behind, towards the jacket that rested on backrest of her chair " And they really fine too. Usually we got ones, financed by Finanse Bureau...but all of this year budget was blowed up on the Ponyville rebuilding! First the Ursa Minor rampage, then the parasprites and not so long ago the dragon? Seriously I really want to tell inhabitians of this place what I think about them, they not the bee's knees for Celestia sake!" "Err..Morning? "Sorry. Let me think...I gonna pass you as civilian expert...and you need some fale name too... spegasi started to fill sme papers, she also proceeded to make nameplate." How about Liquid Storm? "Good enough. Anything else?" he asked as he exmined the plate with his new pseudonym on it. " Yeah, change the manestyle and leave your coat here. You can borrow this one. That will not fool REAns from here they know why you here already and are fine with it. Well except for Colonel." "Oh..the Colonel. If he will find me I am done for." " I wouldn't be so sure about it. He have other thing to be pissed at and I agree with him for once." " Really?" Swift asked surprised as he pulled REA jacket on his back "And that would be...?" "Stalliongradians. They act like they own the place, seen stuff like that million times already and other annoying things. Each one of them have stick in the plot, I tell you." "Belive me, I know them well. Cold land, cold hearts. See you later Morning. I will let you know what I find." Swift said, troting towards the building. His mane was now free and swept-back, and he traded his trademark green shades for black ones. "Thank's but I hope that I will be in bed before that comes. Anyway - good luck. she waved at him and yawned.

If anyone hadn't noticed yet, thread is already open. The Museum Robbery!

My gosh! Rainbow have the BEST. THEME. EVER!

I have one - not-so-important issue. DuskBreaze...why in the Nine Hells you keep referring about Niv-Mizzet as her?! That dragon is a guy!

Line broke under the power level. And did I promised to share Simic deck didn't I? Well I will bring devour deck too, starring our new friend from Planechase - Thromok the Insatiable OM NOM NOM NOM.

Belive me or not weesh, in my opinion Workshop is more balanced then Tolarian Academy. I can only use this mana to cast artifacts - nothing else. No instant draw, no abilities - artifact or not, no Tezzeret, no counterspells. Workshop only upside is that I can Vesuva it and even then I only bring one. Tolarian Academy on other hand? It's stupid, it's broken, it's nuts! What fun it gives to my opponent? At last they can count that I will be mana screwed unlikely it is. But Academy? It's faster then anything. The only thing that can race with is is Gaea's Cradle+Rofellos, Urzatron and some wacky colorless artifacts decks based on Cloudpost+Glimmerpost+Vesuva combination...and the last one are crippled by lack of colored spells.

"Oh don't give me that 'Ewww' look Amongus. Most go 'Ewww' when that smell you or see your leg...of course they have lack of basic understanding and don't realise that this minor inconviniance is necessary." Forest added quickly. "And besides...I have completly different taste buds then you after all that gene splicing. For me this..." Touch took a careful sip "..is extremely delicious. I still miss taste of chocolate trought...now I want to vomit at the smell. But it was worth it!" Forest took a few more sips and nodded few times, admitting the cocktail tase. He lowered his voice and leaned to bartener. The glow of sporecaps give bar the ominous atmosphere...at last from Forest point of view. "By the way...you heard about that mearchant disappearance? From Orzhov...how was his name...? Ah yes pontiff Faith Wealth." he made a dramatic pause before continuing. "They say the Wojek found the traces of fight in his manor. But not his body, not counting that of his thrulls. And no blood. All traces of fighting was from pontiff spells. He apparently throwed Mortify's like crazy but it looks like it didn't work on whatever-it-was that got him. Only his Signet remained. And he was pretty good...almost a Guildmage. And no other clues besides that." It was amazing that while saying all of this Forest managed to search among his papers at the same time. He finaly found what he was looking for, and using the moment that was needed for Fungus to disgest the rumor he approached Simic mare. "Mrs....Norma Gene I presume?" he asked and looked at the document that he was holding with his telekinessis. The description of pony mentioned in it matched perfectly. "I am sorry to bother you, and at your free time too boot but, I have official order...from Combine council no less." Forest cleared his throat and dragged futher, this time in the monotone tone of official declaration "After the Festival of the Guildpact you are officially transfered from Block C-64 of Laboratory 4 into Laboratory 11. The Block will be decided by head of this Laboratory. This order is not subject off appeal. Signed by..." and here followed the long list of names - starting with Momir Vig and all other officials. "...and I know about this order, because so it happens I am head of Laboratory 11 - Breeding and Field Testing. I am Doctor Forest Touch....errrr...welcome to the team?" he not quite asked not quite stated at the end. What followed was awkward silance between the doctor and caregiver. "I am....sure that you have some questions...but if you prefer...to no talk about this now...it can wait after the Festival." Forest had no idea why he himself was so restrained in conversation with this mare. He was her supperior after all, for Parus Simic sake! He will have too look into this...maybe some reaserch. Yes...definitly reaserch.

Heh, I like you application Kirby. And story off friendship of Forest and Fungus - certainly better then anything I could come with. Maybe next time he will bring you better pet (one who isn't blockbusting without order that is).

*Every card is kind of answer off my opponents deck. Good point with Library tought...but look lower. Ivory Tower is answer to one of most fun bounce decks I ever seen. But you kinda rigth there too weesh. Once in a while I rotate them out in favour of Sensei's Divining Top+Future Sight+Etherium Sculptor/Cloudkey combo - infinite draw for the win. *I have the Tolaria Academy...but come on! Let's give a fighting chance. *Steel Hellkite is bane of one of my most frequent opponents - tokens. I do put Wurmcoil (and Metamorphs) when I go against burn. I allows me to race with them efficiently. And as much as I like Wurmcoil lack of trample always irritates me. So yeah, flying is better. He also has a firebreathing (metalbreathing?) so I can do something with all of this mana in that rare occastion when Ruins are not on the table. *When Master Transmuter is in, Master of Etherium is out as he isn't really needed anymore with such big guns. At that point whole deck shifts - like the transformer - from control one into artifact stompy. Predator is all creature removal I need and counters protects me from WoG effects. *Kozilek is there for 1) Deck recusion. There are times when Reconstruction and Ruins are not enough. He protects from the mill too (yeees, I know it's not the the big upside but he saved me from on lockal tournament from Memory Adept. I kinda have a soft spot for old Kozi since then) 2) With so much mana Kozilek not being Artifact guy paradoxically helps. After game two my opponents offten bring lot's of artifact removal and sudden appearance of Eldrazi is nasty surprise. And he gives card adventage no matter what, even if he eats counter. *And nswering first question - this is casual off course. I have little interest in offical tournaments. Next time I will present a Simic deck.

"Nice to..meet you Gambit. And no, I don't take this as offenisve...opposite in fact." he saids positivly surprised. As for now he was the only stallion who didn't dissmised his warnings. He wan't to thank him for this when suddenly another pegasus showed up. "Oh, for the love of Celestia!" tought Swift Squall when he saw Proffessors arrival. Not only he was walking (or rather, flying) Excavation Site but he appeared as a clumsy one too. Corner of his left eye started ticking dangerously but his shades masked this. "We...be...right...back." he said slowly, trying not to crack. He putted his biggest, somewhat maniacal smile as he turned aroud. "Let's...go Dunder." As they moved away his frustration vanished. Both off them were silent for the moment... "I know what you want to say. I still think that I am right, even if all off this preparation will turn unnecessary. Better safe then sorry. But...." Swift expression changed, he actually looked embrassed. "The real reason why I joined was...well I have a really, really bad feeling about this. Oh, don't look at me like that Blusty! I know how it sounds. Forgot that I live with the ghost already?" he suddenly frowned and looked at his hooves "Thing is...when one almost meet his maker such many times like you or I...you start to predict trouble, don't you agree? Like some...sixth sense. And mine has gone hiwire. That's why I almost blowed up when that elder showed up - not counting the fact that I became a bit more hothead since meeting Fire and you -...and why I disspersed this crowd. Less the crew...less the hurt...in case something goes...wrong."

Today Ciraxis brings one of most wicked archetypes into this topic? What type you ask? ARTIFACTS! Muhahahah, tha table is mine! But decks thing first. Mono U artifact... (0) Mox Opal, Ornithopter x4, Welding Jar x2 (1)Library of Leng, Ivory Tower, Sol Ring, Thran Turbine, Reconstruction x2, Brainstorm x2, Power Sink x2 (2)Etherium Sculptor x4, Counterspell x3 (3)Master of Etherium x4, Cloudkey (4)Vedalken Orrery, Unwinding Clock x2, Grinning Totem, Skyship Weatherlight (5)Tezzeret the Seeker x2, Thoughtcast (6) Steel Hellkite x2 (10)Kozilek, Butcher of Truth Lands: Seat of the Synod x4 Glimmervoid x4 Vesuva x3 Mishra's Workshop Darksteel Citadel x2 Academy Ruins Island x5 Sideboard: Predator, Flagship Arcum Dagsson x2 Inkwell Leviathan x2 Master Transmuter x4 Memnarch x 2 Thran Turbine x2 Wurmcoil Engine x1 Phyrexian Metamorph x4 Thoughtcast x2 It crashes, it smashes all....of course there is one weekness - not enought draw engine. Also my friends green decks offten puts decent fight against it. Any comments?

Swift wasn't unconscious for long. He opened his eyes...everything was dark - well it should be - after all Celestia pulled sun down already. Squall head hurt very much but it was nothing. However he felt something as he tried to get up, searing pain in his chest - not that it stopped him. He pulled himself on legs using his magic. "Ghhh...ribs, definitly ribs." swordstallion identefied his damage. It was not first time he broke them after all, he just hoped that they not pierced his lungs. He lighted his surroundings with his horn. Yep. He was within the pit. Swift however was not expecting the tunel...and something that looked like a door at the end off it, he wasn't sure for shadows obscured the details. Squall know better then too wander alone into unknow - especially in his condition. He begun to worry how others will find him when suddenly Conjurer Bubble appeared! "Mr. Bubble? Thanks Celestia. As you can see I fell here and I c-can't escape." Swift voice begun to stutter as the pain grew stronger. "P-please bring others.....I w-will...s-stay...here....Think...I b-broke my r-ribs..." The ghost nodded and vanished while the unicorn leaned on the wall to stay upright.

"Ahahahah. Futile. I tried this once already...it seems it's too late for that. Still - good idea." said the unicorn who just entered the bar seeing what Norma just tried to do. Nothing was ordinary in him. His tabard, proud pose, slitted eyes, spikes on back and smaller on hooves, but most noticeble his basilisk tail. It was Doctor Forest Touch - one of Top 20 minds of Simic. "Hi Fungus, old pal. So...this is your new place? Pretty impressive for such small....nevermind." Forest shutted up suddenly realising where this lead. Doctor looked around patricians. Izzet were fine as long as they keep that machinery rubbish for themselves - at lest they belived in progress. The Boros barbarian should kept that Rakdos imbecile in check. Perfect. Oh? Wait a moment. "You seem...familiar." noted Touch towards the Simic mare "I am pretty sure that we not met but...later." Forest shifted his attention back to Fungus. " Please tell me you still have that tincture on black raspberry. If so, could you mix it with coffe please? By the way...how goes business so far?" Waiting for his friend response his tought shifted back towards this black maned mare. It was something important. Eureka! Sudden realisation struck him and he begun to prospect his bag for the right papers.

And another one. Name: Forest Touch Sex: Male Age: Stallion Appearance: Olive body with long yellow mane. His tail is isn't pony like anymore, as his genes was spliced with that of the basilisk and it's now similar to lizard. Eyes are golden and pupils are slits. Forest also posses spikes on his back and small one on front of each hoof - this spikes contains powerful venom that doubles as disinfectant. His ears are very long for the pony. He also gave himself potent regeneration from a troll. Species: Unicorn Physique: Sound mind needs sound body! He goes out a lot as he prefers a field research over lab ones. As a result he is pretty athletic for a brainy type. Cutie Mark: Curled squirrel. Since joining Simic Combinate squirrel fur turned blue. Origin/Residence: Ravnica Occupation: Master breeder and field researcher. After specimens pass initial lab tests, it's his job to watch how they fare against outside world conditions. Motivation: Establishing stable food chain made of Simic creations. Fully understanding the nature. His vision of Combinate is necessary intervention instead of forced improvement. Because of this, he likes to improve living creatures but not for the sake of it but to help them. Likes: Reading. Making field notes. Playing with his "pets". Hanging out in bars and cantinas. Flaws: Gloats a lot. Also he tends to get lost in his thoughts when he is needed HERE AND NOW. Holds a grudges for a loooong time. Hurting his creations is pressing his Berserk Button. Personality: Analytical. Forest Touch enjoys intellectual debates very much. He develops strong...affection tho those who manage to amuse him. Touch also takes a great pride in his creations. While he doesn't enjoy inflicting pain on anypony, and avoids it as much as he can, he also know that you sometimes need to be cruel to teach them. Cruel to be kind. He helps those who ask, often free off charge for he realizes that in the long run it's good for the food and social chains. On the other hoof he prefers others to not mix into his own problems unasked. Character summary: Born as the guildless he initially joined Selesyna. He worked very well there but he was...extremely uncomfortable with the hive mind concept. What if the Great Nature mind will be wrong? After all evolution had many dead ends in the past, so it proved that it wasn't infallible. He defected after some time and joined Simic. He's knowledge of some Selesyna secrets were very well welcomed in the Combinate. Forest refused to let be experimented on by other during initiation. Instead he did splicing himself with witness no less. He chose basilisk for splicing his genes - something that nopony have managed to do before. Forest however knew how to neutralize creature toxins for the time of the process - thanks of his experience with the Conclave. He later added troll regeneration to the mix. This show off skill impressed the assembled biomancers very much. Forest Touch soon became one of Top 20 minds off the Simic. He refused to work with cytoplasms deeming them "Unnecessary" and chose the career of breeder. His crowning achievement is creation of Simic Sky Swallower. Touch kept one for himself naming him Taffy (don't ask). Recently he was asked to observe Norma Gene - some trouble making caregiver.

Now, now...this seems interesting. Wouldn't mind if I jump in? I would play Simic too! Also Kirby - would you mind having established friendship with your character? After all being from diffrent guilds doesn't mean that they have to gouge their eyes right?

I wasn't thinking about that at the time but now I would say it is situated at Fillydelphia University part of town.

It was snowy morning in The City of Sibling Love. Blizzard raged just outside of the Northtown part of the city, making already cold day even more unpleasant. The single coach slowly made its way towards Manor situated on nearby hill. Single brown pony walked out off the vehicle, opened the massive steel gate that guarded the mansion grounds and started walking towards the building. Fortunately the road leading to it was not so slippery anymore. It seems that Young Master took the care off it...with some help. The Mansion itself was not so scary as it used to be just six months ago. New wooden walls were bright and the roof was now red as fresh apple. Brow pony looked in his pockets and pulled out the key which he used to open the door. "I am back Young Master." said the Oak Branch - for it was him - when he freed himself from winter coat. "Finaly Branch! What took you so long? I was getting worried that you lost yourself in this blizzard. We are in the lounge right now." 'Young Master' answered from the few rooms away. Oak Branch followed this voice. The inside off the masion were unrecognizable from its ruined state. Floors, walls, furniture - all off that was replaced. Now the inside were filled with brightness from magical lamps and classy stuff. In the lounge Swift Squall along with the Conjurer Bubble - formerly ghost and mansion previous 'owner', now house Guardian Spirit - made some Hearth's Warming Eve preparations. "You was out all night. What happened Oak?" Old butler didn't answer at first. He instead inspected the cnages that unicorn and spirit made in the room. Glass ball ornaments, wreath, candles along with socks over the fireplace - all this items decorated lounge now. Oak Branch was sure that Young Master took care off some other rooms already. "Aren't that...little early Young Master." "We will spent our first Hearth's Warming Eve alone Oak. And don't change the subject Branch. What happened?" "He will skip dinner today." thought the old butler. "Well?" Swift reapeted impatiently. Earth Pony sighted "Museum of Fillydelphia was robbed." "What? You joking?....No, of course you not...What was stolen?" "I have no idea Young Master. The REA called for reinforcements from Stalliongrad. It seems serious. I don't know if they would accept civilian hel..." butler started but Squall wasn't even in the room anymore. "Oak Branch, I am leaving. They will need all help available. Maybe it's some syndicates doing? Neverthless I am going in." "Oh dear..." "Oh and I will skip dinner today. Don't worry if I don't come back for day or two." Swift continued as he pulled some heavy winter coat with fur collar on sleeveless jacket that was already on his body. "Later...!" quick farewell was heard before the door slamed. "....I better prepare some bandages" said Oak Branch and Bubble nodded in agreement.

List of participants will now appear in edited first post. Quest is semi-open. Those who did not posted in recruitment topic can still ask to be invited by PM. For easier posting, Ginger Mint map of Fillydelphia will be used even trought it is not incorporated into cannon yet.

Sorin is hedonist. Big, BIG hedonist. However he is not stupid and he knows that there should be rules and what is important. He reconized the danger that the Eldrazi was. He orchestrated the balance of things on Innistrand. Don't get me wrong - he would propably yoink our blood if he would see fit. Yet he don't like needless slaughter, as a vampire he elevated himself beyond that. Markov is kind off bon vivant type... As for Equestria... Seeing the errr colorfulness off our favourite plane we can assume it has lots of mana - just like Shandalar. Or maybe it's becoming next Nexus of the Multiverse.

Splendid! The quest will start tommorow then. Please post which character each of you gonna use here.

The Museum of Fillydelphia was robbed! Some valuable and dangerous artifacts was stolen from Magic Exhibition and both REA and REIN are helpless! Strange and unpredicitble magic of this three items can couse a great mayhem, and even worse - Hearth's Warming Eve is coming in just two days! The snow is falling and clock is ticking. Can the artifacts be found on time and would culprit will be bringed to justice before Hearth's Warming Eve is ruined?! Just as stated above. I am looking for those who thirst for some action packed and at the same time friendly adventure in city setting (think Jackie Chan movies) combined with some investigation. Dramatis Personale (for now): Chapien as Gears “Sparks” Clockwise RaincloudRunner in double role of Lavender Blush and Sparky WhiteSlash as Ursa Growls TemplarFrost as Percival Myself as Swift Squall HarringtonSleuth as...Harrington Sleuth?! (Sorry, couldn't resist!) Phil the Time Wizard as Verity Essence Concord as Rolling Thunder hinata2000100 as Twilight Shine Other useful links: Map of Fillydelphia REA and REIN

I never read any Magic novels (shame on me!), cose they were hard to get in Poland (or they were horrible! Like some 'From the Dark' novels <shivvers>) or not released at all. I play a lot trought... But count me in! Im such a lore nerd that I suck anything dry. I will help as best as my tiny knowlage will allow me. Also regarding ideas - Urza. That guy been on such many planes that it's almost sure that he left something somewhere.
