Shiral's FanFic / Re: Royal Sisters Part I
Last post by LeDuc - April 06, 2024, 10:07:47 PM
It's perfectly normal for siblings to talk things through and out. These two sisters have that 'royal' thing to contend with, plus so much wanting to be loved for WHO they are, not WHAT they are. Richelle has figured most of that out, and being the big/elder sister, can share her insights with Araxie and quell her doubts.

Nicely written.

I do like reading a good story, and the combination of the 'old' and 'new' is a delight. Please, MORE!

Ghosts of the Past Epilogue Stories / Re: Somewhere in Gwynedd

But when you think of all the innocent people including children he had burned as suspected Deryni, you can hardly consider him a saint, more like a devil in saint's clothing

I am not turning to the dark side!!

However, unlike Hubert who I think was straightforwardly evil, there are things that can be said from Loris's PoV.

He had been conditioned from earliest youth to believe that Deryni and their magic were manifestations of the devil; he would have believed that the devil could masquerade as an angel of light, so kindly or apparently "good" Deryni were simply traps to fool the unwary. He watches his King, Brion, be tricked into using unholy magic to defeat the Marluk,  an action which leaves him in thrall to the evil influence of Alaric Morgan. 

When Brion dies, thanks to the godly Queen Jehana, there seems a chance to rescue the young King Kelson from evil counsel, but this fails at the last minute  and the travesty of a coronation reveals the extent to which the kingdom has been corrupted. 

Fighting courageously on, despite the apparent victory of evil, and being willing to use what tools God gives into his hands, Loris is at last summarily executed, a martyr on behalf of defenceless humanity.

This I'm sure is the story Loris told himself.

Forgotten Shadows / Re: Forgotten Shadows Q&A
Last post by Bynw - April 04, 2024, 01:17:10 PM
"Forgotten Shadows" will use the same game system that was used for "Ghosts of the Past". The Tiny Dungeon system (Tiny d6). With of course modifications from the Deryni point of view.

There will be an open call for players in a separate posting. Here again we will be looking for 3 to 5 players. Other members of the community maybe invited to play NPC's from time to time.

This game will be set only 4 years after the events of the previous campain of "Ghosts of the Past".

The players who played in GotP are welcome to play at any time as their original characters. However if they wish to be among the players in FS then they will have to create new characters specifically for that campaign. The GotP characters are very busy with their own lives now but have the potential to be involved on the sidelines.

Or maybe an aging Abbess.  No wait, that might border on blasphemy.  ;D
